Chapter 482 Double Crown Prince
(Thank you Chen Dagu for your support, thank you! Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!)
"Report!" A report outside the tent interrupted Yi Feng's thoughts.
"Come in."
"Report to Your Highness, the Emperor's envoy has brought the imperial edict."
"Emperor, who is the emperor?" Yi Feng snorted coldly, with dissatisfaction in his words.
"It was the Emperor of Jinyang who sent the secretary of the Jin Dynasty Yuan Yan to announce the edict." The guard who reported the report heard the grandson's words with some disrespect to the emperor and quickly replied.
In fact, no wonder Yi Feng asked that question, not entirely disrespectful to the emperor, but since the old emperor's great cause, the Sui Dynasty has also started to be in chaos. Yang Xiu became emperor in Daxing, Yang Guang ascended the throne in Yangzhou, and Yang Yong ascended the throne in Taiyuan. In short, all the emperor's five sons, except for Yang Liang, who had been driven to the southeast corner and became the king of Sunan, probably had not received any news from the Central Plains. The Qin King Yang Jun was alone in Yangzhou and seized military power. It is said that he is now under house arrest. The remaining three princes have all become emperors. It is said that Empress Dugu is indeed legendary enough, with seven sisters and the eldest sister is Northern Zhou.
The empress was the Empress of the Great Sui Dynasty. In history, Li Yuan, the son of the fourth sister, later became the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so she was posthumously named Empress Yuanzhen. Dugu Jialuo was born as the daughter of Dugu Xin of the Eight-Pillar Kingdom, and married Yang Jian, the son of Yang Zhong, one of the twelve generals. The empress also became the Empress of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Empress Dowager. Later, he helped his husband to establish the Great Sui Dynasty, and his husband became the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty. Dugu even asked Yang Jian to swear to him that he only loved him and gave birth to children with her. In this life, Yang Jian did only have five sons and five daughters with Dugu. Now, three of these five legitimate sons have become emperors.
In history, the only one who can compare with Dugu Jialuo was Lou Zhaojun, the wife of Emperor Gao Huan of Northern Qi. Lou Zhaojun, who was born in a wealthy family, knew heroes when he was young, and he decided to live his life with Gao Huan, who was just an ordinary soldier in Huaishuo Town, Northern Wei. Despite the opposition of his parents, he married Gao Huan. Later, she helped Gao Huan establish the foundation of the Northern Qi Dynasty. Among the six sons and two mothers she gave birth to Gao Huan, three sons ascended the throne and became emperor, one son was posthumously named emperor, two sons were crowned king, and two daughters became the queen of the same generation.
Queen Dugu today is indeed very similar to Queen Lou of Gao Huan back then, but Yi Feng believes that Queen Dugu will never want to see the current situation.
The atmosphere in Yi Feng's big tent also became a little strange for a moment.
"Since the angels are here, please invite them in!" Yi Feng did not get up and go out to greet him, but asked the messenger to come in by himself.
After Yi Feng finished speaking, everyone in the tent couldn't help but look at the two people on the side, but the two men sat there calmly, unmoved.
Outside the military camp, the guards passed Yi Feng's words. Yuan Yan was stunned. After a while, he came to his senses. Yi Feng did not come out to welcome the imperial edict, but instead asked him to go. This was really outrageous. He was so arrogant and domineering. He must revisit Yang Lin's book in front of the emperor. Yuan Yan looked unhappy and stood there unwilling to move. "Someone came to the emperor's will. He asked Yang Lin to come and receive the edict!"
"Your Highness is meeting guests, and you are not available now. Please follow me into the camp."
"Oh, where did your nobles come from? You didn't even have time to take the emperor's will!" Yuan Yan gritted his teeth and said. If he hadn't seen the army of ten miles and two hundred thousand troops under the city of Mayi, he would have left with his sleeves or cursed directly.
The guard immediately replied, "Like you."
"What does it mean to be like me?"
"The guests you meet with are like you, and they are also the emperor's envoy, and they all came with imperial edicts."
Yuan Yan was really puzzled now. He didn't hear that the emperor sent other envoys to bring other imperial edicts. What was going on?
"Why didn't I know that the emperor sent other envoys to come?"
"Oh, they are not the envoys of the Emperor of Jinyang. They claim to be the envoys of the Emperor Daxing and the Emperor of Yangzhou, and brought the imperial edicts of the Emperor Daxing and the Emperor of Yangzhou." The guard replied truthfully.
Yuan Yan suddenly jumped up like a cat who was stepped on his tail, pinching the orchid finger, his face swollen, pointing at the guard who was still a little confused about his mind, "Rareless, what about the emperor of Daxing, the emperor of Yangzhou, Yang Xiu killed the throne, and Yang Guangwu became emperor. They are all rebels of the country and pseudo-emperors. How could Yang Lin see them? They should be arrested and executed immediately!"
The guard stood there unmoved, like a wooden pile. Yuan Yan sprayed a while and saw that the guard ignored him at all, he calmed down a little. But when he thought that Yi Feng would not come to greet him at this time, he met Yang Xiu and Yang Guang's envoys in the camp. He felt a little panicked. Yang Lin was holding 200,000 troops in his hand. "The fake official sent by the two pseudo-emperors came to convey the words of the guy?"
"Oh, Emperor Daxing, oh, the regicide Yang Xiu sent the pseudo-official Secretary Yuan Heng to come, and issued an order to enfeoff His Highness, the Secretary of the Secretariat and the Secretary of the Daxingtai of Hebei Road, King Zhao, all the land north of the Yellow River, are under the jurisdiction of King Zhao, and lead military affairs and civil affairs."
Yuan Yan was shocked when he heard this. Before, Yang Xiu usurped the throne and ascended the throne, he immediately ordered the dethrone of the crown prince of Yang Lin and changed the title of King Zhao, and asked Yang Lin to enter the capital immediately. But now, he immediately changed it. Not only did he no longer mention the matter of entering the capital, but he instead granted all the prefectures and counties north of the Yellow River and dozens of prefectures to Yang Lin. The Hebei Daxingtai Shangshu Ling was one level higher than the Youzhou General Manager, and he also added the position of Shangshu Ling in the imperial court. It can be seen that Yang Xiu must have known that Yang Lin defeated the Turks in Daibei and surrendered more than 100,000 Turkic troops, and now he has led 200,000 troops to the south.
"What about the pseudo emperor of Yangzhou?" Yuan Yan asked quickly.
"The pseudo-Emperor of Yangzhou sent a pseudo-official official, the Ministry of Rites, Yu Wen, and the pseudo-eunuch, and the pseudo-eunuch, and the pseudo-eunuch was ordered to enthrone His Highness as the crown prince, and his two sons were named King Zhao and the other King Yan."
"What, how dare Yang Guang be so traitor!" Yuan Yan shouted. There were very few people who knew that Yang Lin was actually Yang Guang's son, but Yuan Yan, who had been in charge of intelligence in the East Palace, was one of the insiders. Yuan Yan never expected that Yang Guang would issue an order to sign Yang Lin as the crown prince at this time. After all, at least Yang Lin's identity is still the son of Yang Yong. What is Yang Guang doing? He broke the news, whether he wanted to win the chaos or use it to win Yang Lin to turn to him. But in anger, he began to become frightened. Don't the prince know that Yang Lin is not his own seed? Of course, the prince knew. He knew more than ten years ago.
But since Yang Lin returned to the royal family, why did the prince hide this secret deeply in his heart, and even gritted his teeth and took the initiative to make Yang Lin the grandson? Isn’t it because Yang Lin got the favor of the emperor that Yang Lin had a force that was not strong at the time, but in the struggle between the prince and the King of Jin, he was able to break the balance. Especially later, Yang Lin’s power became stronger and stronger, which made the prince even more determined to win him over. Even though the old emperor has made great progress and the prince succeeded to the throne, he still dared not announce the secret. Despite this, the prince had to obey Gao Bing’s words and issue an order to enthrone Yang Lin as the prince, and let himself come to promulgate him.
But who would have thought that Yang Guang would not act according to common sense and actually enthroned Yang Lin as the crown prince. What is he going to do? Should he announce this huge secret?
Oh my God, once the secret is announced, Yang Lin will still support the prince. Maybe he will turn to Yangzhou as Yang Guang expected.
As soon as he thought of this, Yuan Yan didn't care about any more airs. "He led the way, and I had to read the decree to Your Highness immediately."
Yuan Yan rushed to Yifeng's tent in the camp. He glanced at the tent first, and sure enough, he saw two familiar faces among the civil and military generals. Yuan Heng was originally the Minister of War and had always had a good relationship with the King of Shu. It was said that Yuan Heng was of the same clan as the former crown prince's concubine Yuan. Yang Xiu sent Yuan Heng to the point that he had such a relationship. Yu Wenshu and was the son of Yu Wenshu, and everyone knew that Yu Wenshu was Yang Guang's confidant counselor. These two appeared in Yang Lin's tent. It seemed that just as the guard said just now, they were here to pass on the order of the pseudo-emperor.
He glared at the two of them fiercely, but this was not the time to argue. He had to pronounce an imperial edict to Yang Lin first and tell him the emperor's trust in him.
"Your Highness, my new secretary to the Secretariat, Yuan Yan, came to read the edict at the emperor's order and asked Your Highness to accept the edict."
Yi Feng sat there without moving, glanced at Yuan Yan, "The emperor has an order, so let's read it out."
He was in a very good mood now. He rushed to the city of Mayi, and the defenders at Mayi Pass were in seclusion. Then he didn't know why Yuan Heng, Yu Wenshi and the two of them ran to the gate to read out the emperor's decree. Yang Xiu's decree was expected, but what was the meaning of Yang Guang's decree that Yu Wenshi and Xuan meant?
Although Yang Guang had few sons, he also had two sons and both were born in the legitimate family and were nearly adult. His eldest son Yang Zhao not only had the title of King Han but was now the chief general of Yizhou. His second son Yang Ming was also extremely smart and married the Wei family. After the year, he served as a general in Beijing. Yang Ming, who was in Beijing, probably fell into the hands of Yang Xiu, but Yang Guang also had a more suitable eldest son Yang Zhao. But Yang Guang traveled thousands of miles to send people to him and proclaimed him as the crown prince, and his two sons were named King Zhao and King Yan. His own son did not give him a crown prince, but he was granted an illegitimate son as the crown prince?
Yi Feng didn't believe that Yang Guang really wanted to compensate him, which only means that Yang Guang didn't want to go through the ordinary path and came up with some harsh tricks. Now I issued an edict to sign him the crown prince, and the next step was to disclose that he was the big secret of the illegitimate son he and the Yuan family had born in that year. He was determined in this way to destroy his alliance with Yang Yong and forced himself to break with Yang Yong. Once the matter broke out, how could Yang Yong still let Yang Lin be his crown prince? Isn't this exactly what Yang Guang was looking forward to? This was always maintained very well at the beginning, and no one was willing to reveal Yang Guang and Yang Yong, because after this secret was exposed, it was all more harmful to them than to benefit them. Now it's different. Yang Jian died, Yang Guang and Yang Yong both claimed to be emperors. Now Yang Yong still wants to maintain this secret, but Yang Guang no longer has to keep it. At this time, Yang Guang can benefit more than keep it.
Seeing Yi Feng's attitude, Yuan Yan did not dare to worry at the moment, so he took it out and opened it according to the order and read it loudly.
"Since ancient times, the emperors inherited the heaven and established the extreme and pacified the world, and must establish the Yuan Crown, Maolong's foundation, and the unlimited rest of the Mianzong community. I have been so proud of the great work, and I have been so careful in the night. I am grateful to my ancestors, and I have been so proud of the greatness of my ancestors. I have been so proud of the greatness of my ancestors. I have been so proud of the greatness of my sons. I have been so proud of the empress dowager, and I have been so proud of the rituals and the public opinion. I have been so proud of the heaven, the earth, the temple, and the country. On April 13, the 19th year of Kaihuang, I was granted the forest to be a treasure and made the crown prince. The Eastern Palace is to attach the ten thousand years of rule to the heart of the four seas."
"Your Highness, please accept the order!" After Yuan Yan finished reading the imperial edict, he handed it to Yi Feng with the imperial edict.
