my wife is mulan

"Obey!" The eagle envoy agreed and turned around and walked out of the tent. Not long after, an eagle flew into the night sky and flew eastward.

When Zhao Junsheng returned to the tent on the mountain, the ministers were noisy in the tent.

Gaochang King Tuoba Na said loudly: "This matter is very strange. The assassins came to assassinate His Majesty, but they were able to do so silently and did not disturb any guards. No one can sneak up to the mountain to carry out an assassination without alarming the guards, the assassin must be an insider!"

The Taishi made Zhang Yuan jump in anxiety: "I said, King Gaochang, you are at this juncture, why can't you change your suspicion? You have to make our internal people panic, you have to make all the ministers, colleagues, and troops Is it good for the generals to be suspicious of each other?"

Tuoba Na glanced suspiciously at everyone's faces, "This king is just talking about facts!"

Cui Hao stood up and said: "King Gaochang, this is not the time to doubt anyone. No matter who you doubt, you should doubt yourself first. You set up all the guards on the mountain and down the mountain. Should we suspect that you let the assassin go?" up the mountain?"

"you······"

The champion general An Jie immediately smoothed things over: "My lord, please calm down. The general thinks that Cui Taichang didn't doubt you. If it's normal, it's fine. We are waiting in Mobei now. We can't be chaotic inside, and we can't give Rouran people an opportunity. If you have someone you suspect, please don’t speak out! Now the two most important issues are before us: first, the country cannot live without a king, who should be the emperor? Second, the emperor has been assassinated and died , the crusade against the Rouran people is determined not to go on, and all soldiers and horses should be recalled immediately. Also, do you want to send someone to inform King Yongchang of the Eastern Route Army..."

As soon as these two questions were raised, everyone fell silent. The matter was so important that no one dared to speak easily, especially when it came to the question of the successor.

There was no sound in the tent for a long time, Dazai Changying saw this and said: "My colleagues, we can't do without talking, the issue of succession to the throne is unavoidable! The sooner the crown prince is appointed, the world will settle down sooner. Give the surrounding enemy countries an opportunity to take advantage of!"

After his words fell, Taishi ordered Zhang Yuan to say immediately: "Well, since this issue is on the table, I will talk about my thoughts! Your Majesty now has two princesses and a prince. Less than one year old, too young to handle state affairs, I thought the heir to the throne should be chosen from among His Majesty's brothers, King Leping is heroic, mighty, shrewd and capable, even Emperor Taizong valued him very much, Ruo Leping

It is my great Wei's blessing that the king ascends the throne as the emperor! "

Yi Huo stood up and objected: "No, the Murong family of the Queen Mother of Leping is too powerful. If King Leping becomes emperor, it will not only be a blessing for us, but a disaster for Great Wei! I think King Le'an is the most suitable one. Moreover, King Le An is in Mobei, as long as someone is sent to inform him, King Le An will be able to come back and ascend the throne in no time!"

Gaochang King Tuoba Na sneered: "What is your reason? According to your statement, King Le'an is not suitable. His mother, Mrs. Murong, is Princess Beiyan. If King Le'an is allowed to ascend the throne, I'm afraid it will be a big blow to my great Wei." Even worse!"

Zhao Junsheng saw that these ministers were arguing, and he felt that it was necessary to stand up and show his existence. You must know that there are only more than [-] people here under his command. If he gives an order, these princes and ministers will all Heads fall to the ground.

"Masters, you are here to discuss who will inherit the throne, but none of the people you are discussing is here. Do you know if they are willing to take the throne?"

"Besides, all the people in Pingcheng do not represent the imperial court. There are still a large group of princes and ministers in Pingcheng. If you all agree on who should be elected as the successor, what should we do if those ministers in Pingcheng don't want to be?"

Zhao Junsheng's official position is not high, he has just been named General Long Xiang, but he has [-] fine cavalry under his command, which is the only armed force in Huangyan Mountain, and the wealth and lives of all the ministers and princes present are in his hands To protect him, what he said had to attract the attention of these ministers.

Even Tuoba, an unruly clan prince, couldn't offend Zhao Junsheng too much at this moment.

Among the ministers present, only Kou Qianzhi had a good relationship with him, Kou Qianzhi asked: "Then what about the general?"

.

Chapter 390 Mulan's Suspicion

Zhao Junsheng's eyes swept over the faces of the ministers and generals, "The final general would like to remind you all that your majesty passed away, and the West Route Army lost its master. Now the eldest son army general He Duoluo, the concubine army general Daxi Guangliang, The general from the left chamber, Changle Wang Hexijing, and the right chamber general, Le'an King Tuobafan, are all out in command, who among you present can order them? No!"

The ministers' hearts sank when they heard this.

Zhao Junsheng continued: "If the news of His Majesty's death spreads, and these generals rush back with their troops, no one will obey the other, and they will draw their swords against each other if they disagree with each other. When the time comes, there will be a scuffle, not to mention the casualties of the soldiers. How much, how big the loss of the court is, the safety of all the ministers is a problem!"

When the ministers heard this, sweat began to break out on their foreheads.

Zhao Junsheng took a deep breath, and finally expressed his purpose: "Everyone, in my opinion, the candidate for the future emperor must and can only be one of the princes who will go to Mobei this time!"

Tai Shi ordered Zhang Yuan to object immediately: "General Zhao, I don't agree with what you said. I think that the person who inherits the throne must have both ability and political integrity, and has a higher prestige among the courtiers than other princes, and Wang Pi of Leping is the best candidate." !"

Zhao Junsheng said coldly: "Mr. Zhang, do you think you will benefit from supporting King Leping to the end? King Leping is far away in Pingcheng. If the news of His Majesty's death reaches Pingcheng, the officials in Pingcheng will support him as the throne immediately." , what will happen to us ministers and generals who went to Mobei? The high-ranking officials, rich salary and good titles have all been won by the ministers and ministers in Pingcheng. Was slowly pushed out of the court!"

Zhang Yuan suddenly lost his temper.

Zhang Junsheng’s mouthful of benefits, high-ranking officials and titles seemed extremely blatant, and the ministers present were a little embarrassed and uncomfortable to hear it, but his words were not rough, and whenever he came out to be an official, wouldn’t it be for the purpose of gaining benefits?Without benefits and benefits, who would sharpen their heads and squeeze towards the emperor?

Taichangqing Cui Hao said: "I think what General Zhao said is not unreasonable. For us, Pingcheng is too far away, and we can't influence Pingcheng now. If the news spreads back to Pingcheng, it is up to me to establish whoever ascends the throne." Wait for the decision! Therefore, the princes in Pingcheng will not be considered! I would also like to remind everyone that His Majesty has passed away, and the Great Wei has lost its ruler. No matter whose camp you used to belong to, you have now lost your original camp identity , now we are in the same camp, so we should be of one mind!"

The ministers and generals all looked at each other, and most of them agreed with Cui Hao's words.

In fact, for Cui Hao, the death of Tuoba Tao hit him and the national teacher Kou Qianzhi the hardest. The two of them were promoted next to Tuoba Tao. Being favored by Tuoba Tao, now that Tuoba Tao is dead, they have completely lost their backing. Will the next emperor favor them like Tuoba Tao?

This is not good, once the emperor and the courtiers!So although they were sad, and even felt that the future was bleak, he had to fight for the future, and the future emperor had to be chosen by them.

At this time Gaochang King Tuoba stood up and said with a serious face: "Everyone, although your majesty was assassinated and died, he still has heirs. There is no precedent for the succession of the throne in my Great Wei Dynasty. You are young, but who can say that he does not have the talent of the emperor? When it comes to the qualifications to inherit the throne, Prince Huang is the most qualified person, and his succession is the orthodox! If other princes succeed to the throne, it will be difficult to block the mouths of the world. !"

"King Gaochang, Prince Huang's succession to the throne is indeed orthodox, but he is too young to speak, how to control the officials and govern the world?"

Tuoba Na immediately retorted: "Isn't there still me and other ministers and ministers here? You are the pillars of the imperial court. With our assistance, can't the court be stabilized? Can't it last until the new emperor becomes an adult?"

Zhao Junsheng immediately shouted: "King Gaochang, Master Cui has already said just now that the princes far away in Pingcheng will not be considered, even Prince Huang. Do you still want to send someone to bring Prince Huang here to take the throne? Wait until you Send people to Pingcheng, the news has already spread in Pingcheng, can you still help? You are just making wedding clothes for others!"

Tuoba was also stunned speechless.

The champion general An Jie said:

"In this way, the two most qualified princes in Mobei are King Le'an and King Yongchang. Which prince should I support?"

As soon as this was said, all the ministers present knew that the new emperor could only choose one of these two.

The attendant Yi Huo quickly said: "I think King Le'an is the most suitable. He has [-] soldiers and horses in the right wing under his command. He is humble and respectful. He treats his subordinates generously and considerately. If King Le'an is the emperor, it must be me." The blessing of waiting is also the blessing of the court and the blessing of the world!"

Some ministers nodded in approval of Yi Huo's words.

Zhao Junsheng sneered, and immediately retorted: "I don't agree with Yi Shizhong's words. If you compare the number of soldiers and horses, King Yongchang now has tens of thousands of troops. How can King Le'an compare? Also, King Yongchang is tall and strong. He is good at riding and shooting, and masters the art of war. His prowess is more than that of Emperor Daxing. "That is, the title of the emperor after his death but before his posthumous title is established." If King Yongchang succeeds, he will surely complete the will of Emperor Daxing , Unify the world, conquer the world! "

These words won the favor of many ministers who were loyal to Tuoba Tao, and the wishes of these ministers gradually favored King Yongchang.

"Another point is that Mrs. Murong, the mother of King Le'an, is Princess Beiyan. This is an irrefutable fact. Mrs. Murong has always been devoted to her natal family. King Le'an's succession to the throne is not good for my Great Wei. According to the inheritance of my Great Wei's throne Before establishing the crown prince, the emperor wanted to grant the crown prince's mother to death, so as not to cause a situation where the relatives were in great difficulty, but the emperor Daxing did not leave a will before his death. If we support King Le'an, who would dare to touch Mrs. Murong? The mother of King Yongchang died early. If we support King Yongchang, the new emperor will not have to follow the old rules to poison his mother, and we, ministers and generals will not have to be embarrassed. Everyone is happy! Therefore, King Yongchang is the most suitable to inherit the rule Humans are the chosen ones!"

After Zhao Junsheng said these words, several people tended to support King Yongchang.

Even so, some ministers still objected. These people were optimistic about King Le'an Tuoba Fan, and they stood up and listed a series of reasons one by one. Such an emperor is a blessing to the ministers.

For a while, the ministers were divided into two factions and quarreled.

"Okay, okay, stop arguing!" Guo Shi Kou Qianzhi had to stand up to stop the two parties, "Everyone, the succession to the throne is a major event after all, it cannot be sloppy, and it cannot be decided casually. In the opinion of the poor , It's too late tonight, all the ministers will discuss the matter of guarding the emperor Daxing's spirit first, and then the other colleagues will go back to rest and think about the succession of the throne. Let's continue discussing this matter tomorrow, how about it?"

Pi Louxian, the commander of the Ouchi guards, said at this time: "I will stay at the end of the night to watch the spirit!"

Cui Hao is Tuoba Tao's favorite minister, of course he is indispensable at this time, and said with great grief: "I will also stay here to guard the spirit!"

Kou Qian wept bitterly: "Emperor Daxing went too miserable, and the poor Taoist wants to stay and do a ritual ceremony to save him!"

In order to express their loyalty and grief, other ministers all expressed their desire to stay and watch the spirit.

Zhao Junsheng saw it, and immediately said loudly: "Emperor Daxing knows that all the ministers are loyal ministers, but there is no need for everyone to stay to watch the spirit. If you don't watch tonight, you will have to watch tomorrow. Tonight, Cao Zongai, General Pilou, Cui Gong and Kou Tianshi, let's keep the spirit, as for tomorrow, we will make another arrangement. If everyone is exhausted, who will take charge of the overall situation? It's okay, it's all gone!"

Many ministers and ministers were very dissatisfied with Zhao Junsheng giving orders like a person in charge, but now at this time no one dared to offend him, they could only mutter in their hearts, each saluted Tuoba Tao's body, then turned and left.

After Zhao Junsheng walked out of the handsome tent, he looked up at the starry sky, his expression became more determined. Mulan's identity as a woman had been exposed, and he was less worried. Now that Tuoba Tao was dead, he was safe for the time being. No one regarded him as a mortal enemy anymore, even if there were, as long as he was not a prince or the new emperor, he would not be afraid. With the thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, anyone who wanted to move him had to weigh whether it was worth it.

He took a deep breath and came to Hua Mulan's tent. As soon as he entered the tent, Hua Mulan wanted to struggle to get up, and asked anxiously, "Brother Junsheng, what happened outside?
