Comprehensive martial arts: Beiliang Longson, Li Hanyi asks the sword at the beginning

Chapter 308 The New King
Yuan Benxi nodded first, and then asked: "Is there any progress with Chen Zhibao?"

Zhao Chun replied: "Chen Zhibao does not want to compete for the position of King of Northern Liang."

Yuan Benxi teased: "I didn't expect that Chen Zhibao, a soldier in white, would be so heartless that he would be willing to give up his position as the King of Beiliang."

"If you don't fight even with the support of the imperial court, it really gives people the feeling that the wall cannot be supported by mud."

Zhao Chun said: "I don't know what Chen Zhibao thinks."

"Since I can't instigate Chen Zhibao to rebel, I can only encourage him to join the court and become Minister of War."

"Don't tell me, Chen Zhibao is quite interested in the position of Minister of War."

Yuan Benxi nodded: "In that case, let's hang up Chen Zhibao first using the position of Minister of the Ministry of War."

Zhao Chun nodded: "Okay."

Yuan Benxi then said: "If Chen Zhibao doesn't fight, then we can only think of his method."

"Let's do this, Your Majesty. You issue an imperial edict to allow Xu Fengnian to come to Beijing to receive the ceremony, so as to delay the time for Xu Fengnian to become the King of Northern Liang."

"In any case, only when Xu Fengnian becomes the King of Northern Liang is he certified by the imperial court, can he be truly justified."

"I think neither Xu Xiao nor Xu Fengnian will refuse this matter."

Zhao Chun responded: "Okay, just do as the teacher said."

Yuan Benxi seemed to suddenly think of something, and said again: "Your Majesty can issue another imperial edict to commend Zhao Wuji, and also call Zhao Wuji to Beijing."

"There is no need to delay the establishment of the crown prince any longer."

"Now that Zhao Wuji has been identified, we should appoint Zhao Wuji as the crown prince earlier, so that we can better utilize Zhao Wuji's power."

"If Zhao Wuji's power can be used by the court, then the court can easily deal with all problems."

Zhao Chun nodded: "Okay, I will write two imperial edicts later and send them to Beiliang as soon as possible."

Just one day before the throne succession ceremony was held, the eunuch from Kyoto came to the Northern Liang Palace with two imperial edicts.

Coincidentally, it was lunch time.

Zhao Wuji and Xu Fengnian were all gathered in the living room.

Although Beiliang has never bought into Li Yang's account, he has not gone too far on the surface.

The eunuch who announced the decree was not in trouble and arrived in front of Zhao Wuji and the others smoothly.

"Please accept the order from Northern Liang Crown Prince."

The eunuch who announced the edict first took out one of the imperial edicts and read it out.

"I learned that the throne of Northern Liang has been changed, and I have authorized the crown prince of Northern Liang, Xu Fengnian, to come to Beijing as soon as possible to receive the ceremony, so that this matter is justified."

There was nothing wrong with Zhao Chun's imperial edict. On the contrary, he seemed to understand things very well. He specially held a ceremony for Xu Fengnian to take over the throne, which can be said to be a great kindness from the emperor.

However, Xiao Jiujiu, Xu Xiao and Xu Fengnian can all figure it out.

Xu Fengnian ignored the eunuch who announced the order, as if he didn't want to accept the order.

In response to Xu Fengnian's rebellious behavior, the eunuch who announced the decree not only did not dare to say anything, but could only make an awkward but polite smile.

In the end, Xu Xiao stood up.

Xu Xiao directly received the imperial edict in his hands, and then said with a smile: "Please, when my father-in-law goes back, please express my gratitude to Your Majesty for me."

The old eunuch was frightened, bowed and said: "Old slave, take your orders."

"While the meal is still being eaten, I won't send it to my father-in-law."

After issuing the ejection order without much nonsense, Xu Xiao turned around and returned to his seat.

As for the imperial edict, he threw it aside.

As an imperial eunuch, his identity and status are very unusual.

In front of most people, the old eunuch was treated with respect.

Normally, he can hold his own wherever he goes.

But in this Northern Liang Prince's Mansion, he couldn't do anything.

The old eunuch didn't want to deal with it, but there was still an imperial decree that he had to read out.

"I'm sorry, everyone, but I still have an imperial edict to read out."

The old eunuch said and took out another imperial edict from his body. "Please ask King Qi to accept the order."

The old eunuch did not expect that Zhao Wuji would kneel down to receive the order, so he immediately spread out the imperial edict and read out: "Qi King Zhao Wuji led his troops to attack the Qin State, which greatly damaged the Qin State's vitality and could no longer provoke Li Yang. I intend to reward you for your great achievements, and I hope to come to Beijing as soon as possible to receive the reward."

Neither Zhao Wuji nor Xu Fengnian were too surprised that Zhao Chun wanted to commend Zhao Wouji.

Zhao Wuji said without raising his head: "Okay, the imperial edict will stay."

When the old eunuch heard this, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty.

"The old slave retire."

After the old eunuch put down the imperial edict, he didn't wait for a moment, and immediately turned around and left.

After the old eunuch left.

Xu Fengnian raised his head and looked at Zhao Wuji and asked, "When does my brother-in-law plan to go to Beijing to receive the reward?"

Zao Wuji replied: "I have no interest in receiving the reward at all."

Xu Fengnian said: "Aren't you curious about how the emperor will reward you?"

Zhao Wuji said: "I'm not curious."

Xu Fengnian nodded: "Yes, anyway, you don't lack anything now."

Zhao Wou-ki smiled, but didn't say anything.

Xu Fengnian then said without hesitation: "I think the emperor is quite insincere. If he really wants me to take over the throne of Beiliang, why not just issue an imperial edict? Why do you have to let me go to Beijing to receive the ceremony and make it so troublesome?" .”

Zhao Wuji agreed: "It's true that the sincerity is not enough."

Xu Xiao said at this time: "Feng Nian, it is still necessary for you to go to Beijing to receive the ceremony, but it must be placed after the takeover ceremony."

Xu Fengnian nodded: "That's what I planned too."

Whether it was Zhao Wuji or Xu Fengnian, although they both accepted the imperial edict, they did not follow it.

The next day.

The ceremony for Xu Fengnian to take over the throne was held as scheduled at the Northern Liang Palace.

Early in the morning, various red carpets were laid out in the palace and various festive red lanterns were hung.

All the military and government officials from Northern Liang gathered at the palace.

Three poles in the sun.

Witnessed by all the important people in Northern Liang, Xu Xiao gave Xu Fengnian the Liang King's waist card and military talismans.

After doing this, Xu Xiao said loudly: "From now on, Xu Fengnian is the King of Beiliang. I also ask that you all support Xu Fengnian as the new king in the future."

After finishing speaking, Xu Xiao bowed slightly to everyone.

When everyone saw this, they knelt down one after another.

"I'll obey!"

"I'm waiting to meet the new king!"

Xu Fengnian, who was wearing a scarlet python robe, glanced at everyone in Beiliang one by one, and then he said loudly without being angry: "Everyone, please stand up."

"Thank you, my lord!"

All the Northern Liang officials thanked them and then stood up.

Xu Fengnian then spoke again: "From now on, I hope you can give me your full support."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!"

"Everything in Beiliang will remain as it is. You should continue to do your part."

"Yes!"

Xu Fengnian didn't say much, and then greeted: "Everyone can take your seats, we will have the banquet now."

It's a happy event today, and although it's not dinner time yet, there's nothing wrong with it.

Immediately, everyone sat down to eat.
