Chapter 265

Xu Qing stares at Li Changting: "isn't hui'er completely a victim! He was forced to become emperor, and later he had to marry a woman he didn't like, and he was forced to have a son to inherit the throne. He was controlled by his uncle all his life. That's different from what you told me beforehand! "

Li Changting comforted him and said, "don't worry. I'm calling the king of Beiling back."

Duanmu rang: "hmm? Did you call the king of Beiling back? "

Li Changting explained: "when the former emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, the imperial court sent two urgent reports to the king of Beiling. They were all intercepted by situ Xiao secretly. I just sent them out again."

Xu Qing asked, "is this king of Beiling good or bad?"

Li Changting: "not good, not bad, but the enemy of the enemy is a friend, let's sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight for a while."

Duanmu Xiang sighed: "the king of Beiling has the talent to govern the world, but it's a pity that he's the second son. He's not as popular as his brother. Later, the former Emperor became more and more fatigued. Instead, he became a clear stream in the imperial court and was deeply loved by the officials. However, the throne is doomed to be out of his way, unless he raises his troops to revolt."

Xu Qing: "he left the capital with a lot of regrets. Now he's back. Will he plan to regroup and fight for the throne again?"

Duanmu Xiang shook his head: "he's mostly old. It's estimated that he will go to the earth in five or six years. He has to fight with situ Xiao for the throne. Situ Xiao didn't grow up a vegetarian. Maybe he can't succeed in ten or twenty years."

Li Changting gave Duanmu a white look: "how old is it? The king of Beiling is only fifty-nine. It's far away from entering the earth."

Duanmu ring pinched his finger: "I think he seems to have more than 60..."

Li Changting: "you all say that the king of Beiling is the second son, only two years younger than the former Emperor, but there were many princes in that generation, and there were even more dead."

Duanmu ring: "there are more than 20 princes, but there are only two left. If the king of Beiling was not his younger brother and was protected by the empress dowager, he would not have lived to this day."

Xu Qing went on to the main topic: "so the king of Beiling still has the capital to fight for the throne."

Li Changting: "when the king of Beiling came back to Beijing, he took his grandson, a 15-year-old boy, who was very civil and military. As soon as he came to Beijing, he made some reputation. However, when the king of Beiling removed his name from the Royal genealogy, his descendants were not qualified to join the genealogy, let alone enjoy the Royal favor, unless they revolted. Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the king of Beiling has made several great achievements, obtained the emperor's approval and the support of his ministers, allowed him to go back to the Royal genealogy, and granted him the right of inheritance. "

Duanmu laughs: "the second possibility will certainly be strongly opposed by situ Xiao. Unless the situ family can no longer speak at that time, the king of Beiling will not fight for any welfare for his descendants."

Xu Qing said: "I guess the king of Beiling will not raise troops to revolt. On the one hand, he has a bad reputation; on the other hand, he has no popular support. Even if he becomes the emperor, the country will become fragmented. At that time, the neighboring countries will take advantage of the opportunity to carve up the territory. The king of Beiling will have to deal with the situation of internal and external troubles. It's better than picking up a mess. If he's a thankless person, he'll be the only one A little brain can't do it. "

Li Changting nodded with a smile: "Qing'er is right."

Xu Qing: "so there is only a second possibility for Beiling king to choose. Even if he can't win the throne, there is no problem for him to have one. This also means that his position is absolutely opposite to that of the situ family. If both sides want to be superior, it is bound to be a life and death situation. "

Li Changting: "yes, the military strength of the king of Beiling is not inferior to that of situ Xiao, that is to say, his political status is inferior to that of situ Xiao. However, the grandson of the king of Beiling is ready to take part in the martial arts test next year, and it will be a matter of time before he enters the court. Since situ Xiao has given up the throne, even Yin Xiang can't make the whole dynasty hall his own. It's not conducive to the development of the country. It can only be said that situ Xiao is brave but not resourceful. He is doomed to be wrong step by step. "

Duanmu ring nodded: "if the king of Beiling restrains the situ family, hui'er has room to breathe and breathe. He is not at the mercy of the situ family everywhere."

Xu Qing: "when hui'er came back to study, the imperial court gave him to fight. Is it really OK?"

Li Changting: "hui'er is still very young, but it doesn't get in the way. Even the emperors of past dynasties choose to go to the palace in winter and summer. When hui'er is 12 years old, he almost needs to live in the capital for a long time."

Twelve is also very young, but that will be five years later. Let's talk about it then.

Moreover, Li Changting said that even ministers have to consider the emperor's physical and mental health. There is only one child living in such a large harem. There is no mother and close people to take care of the children, and the children have no relatives. It's really worrying. It's the emperor. How can we bear it.

Xu Qing was relieved: "then I can rest assured."

Duanmu Xiang thought of something and looked at Li Changting: "ah, situ Xiao drove your people out. Did he find out that it was you who informed the king of Beiling?"

Li Changting looked at him and didn't speak.

See through not say through.

Duanmu laughs: "situ Xiao probably has no evidence. If there is evidence, it's not as simple as driving him out. You've really got him in a big trouble. You said you'd support him, and you'll calculate people in a twinkling of an eye."Li Changting snorted coldly: "who makes him so stupid that he doesn't even want to be an emperor? If he is a good emperor and doesn't bother my son, can I count on him? Now his sister assassinates my daughter-in-law, can I bear it? It's good if I don't deal with him myself!"

Duanmu Xiang nodded: "the biggest mistake situ Xiao made is that he didn't kill situ LAN and asked for help from her. Oh, there's another one. It's too much affectation. It's too late to regret not having the throne. "

Who would have thought that the current DPRK situation would be like this.

Situ Xiao never dreamed that he would kill Cheng Yaojin on the way, nor did he expect that Li Changting would turn over when he said he would.

It must be that situ Xiao is hating Li Changting, but situ LAN sends someone to assassinate Xu Qing. Li Changting must be responsible for half of the debt. Liang Zi has settled the debt.

What situ Xiao is most proud of is his military power. Without Da Hao as a general, who is going to settle the internal chaos and who is going to settle the external chaos?

But now there is a king of Beiling, a former prince who is ambitious, experienced many battles and eager to make several great contributions to save the hearts of the people. Situ Xiao, the emperor's uncle, feels an unprecedented sense of crisis!

It's not a good year for situ Xiao.

Li Changting went to the window, looked outside and said, "Qing'er, let someone build a stove to boil water in the corner tomorrow. We can't use water well in the future. We always go to Hao Wei's house and build a common one in the yard. It's good to pretend."

Xu Qing nodded approvingly: "yes, it's time to fix one."
