Chapter 2495: Their respective candidates

"Minister of the Ministry of War? Just you?"

Obviously, Hou Zhong's identity as Minister of War was not recognized by everyone.

Because of Hou Zhong's previous identity and some of the things he had done in the past, everyone did not have a good impression of him.

In addition, Zhao Lun died suddenly within less than a day of going out. Let alone Hou Zhong himself being suspected, even if it was really the work of the rebels, Hou Zhong would have committed a serious dereliction of duty. Therefore, in their view, Zhao Lun was He is not qualified to be the Minister of the Ministry of War.

"Yes, it's just me!" Hou Zhong said without changing his expression: "This was granted by His Majesty himself during his lifetime. Don't you accept it? Do you want to rebel against the decree?"

A big hat was pulled off, and although the man was indeed dissatisfied, he did not dare to refute.

"Let's transport His Majesty's body back to the palace first." Guanzhuo said.

Everyone then moved out of the way. Hou Zhong glanced at Guanzhuo and still walked at the front, heading towards the palace.

In Hou Zhong's mind, Guan Zhuo was a difficult person, and it was also a major difficulty for him to control the court.

Of course, besides Guanzhuo, there is also Yuanji!

Compared with Guanzhuo, Yuanji's influence in the court made Hou Chong even more afraid. If it weren't for the troubled times, even if he was the Minister of the Ministry of War, he would not be able to compare with Yuanji.

"We have to find a way to get rid of the two of them first!" Hou Zhong thought secretly in his heart.

With Hou Zhong's style of doing things, if someone threatens him, his first thought is not to talk to the other person, but to get rid of the other person directly. This kind of thing has been done frequently for decades, and it has become a habit. It is impossible to change in half a day.

Zhao Lun's body was transported back to the palace, and Zhao Qi and other people living in the palace also came out to greet him. Because they had seen Zhao Lun's character clearly, there was not much sadness on Zhao Qi's face.

But Hou Zhong didn't pay much attention to Zhao Qi. He didn't know that Zhao Qi was the one who threatened him the most now.

Next, everyone discussed Zhao Lun's burial. This matter was not discussed for too long. Obviously, everyone was not very concerned about this matter.

What everyone is more concerned about is what will be discussed later.

Zhao Lun is dead, who will inherit the throne?

Zhao Lun has been a prince for many years, so he has naturally been married and had children for a long time. Although he died, his children did not die. He had assassinated many members of the royal family before, but it was naturally impossible for him to take action against his own children. Therefore, it was impossible to say who would be the heir to the throne. If so, logically speaking, one should first choose from Zhao Lun's children.

But many people at the scene didn’t seem to have this idea.

Zhao Lun's accession to the throne was not so fair. Everyone present knew this. Therefore, many people did not recognize Zhao Lun. If there were other heirs, they would naturally not choose from Zhao Lun's children. Go choose.

"Ahem, next, should we discuss who should inherit the throne? A country cannot live without a king for a day. After the death of the previous emperor, the new emperor was not immediately elected, which caused a lot of troubles. Everyone must still remember what happened, and we can’t make the same mistake again," Yuanji said first.

As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Yuan Ji is qualified to speak this way, and he is more suitable than anyone else to speak this way. Everyone is obviously waiting for Yuan Ji to speak.

"I think the third son of Prince Li is a good candidate and a suitable candidate!"

"No, I think the second young master from Prince Ling's Mansion is more suitable!"

"The eldest son of Prince Feng's Mansion..." BIqupai.c0m

...

As soon as Yuanji finished speaking, someone began to recommend candidates. Obviously, everyone has considered and even discussed this matter before, and they are waiting for you here.

It is not difficult to see from the people recommended by everyone that everyone’s choices are very different. This is not surprising. It is different now. After the old emperor passed away, the eldest prince, second prince and third prince were ahead of the other princes. The advantage is too obvious, and now, after Zhao Lun's assassination, the remaining people are almost the same, no one is particularly outstanding, so it seems "average" in this way.

However, those who spoke at this time were only ordinary ministers, and the truly powerful people remained silent.

"Ahem."

When everyone had finished talking, Yuanji coughed twice and was about to speak.

However, at this moment, Hou Zhong spoke first.

"I think your Majesty's fifth prince is a good candidate." Hou Zhong said.

Zhao Lun’s fifth son?

Isn't that a seven-year-old child?

Hou Zhong recommended a child to be the emperor. What was he doing?

"Although the fifth prince is young, he is very smart. When His Majesty was still here, he often praised the fifth prince and said that he was the most like him among the children." Hou Zhong continued.

Which fifth prince looks most like Zhao Lun?

That’s even worse!

Everyone knew what kind of person Zhao Lun was. Hou Zhong said that everyone could not say anything else, but they said that the fifth prince was most like Zhao Lun, so everyone rejected this candidate without even thinking about it.

"The fifth prince is not suitable!" Yuan Ji said with some annoyance: "He is too young. Today's court needs an adult to take charge of the overall situation."

Yuan Ji obviously had a problem with Hou Zhong. When he didn't speak, Hou Zhong didn't speak either. When he wanted to speak, Hou Zhong also spoke. This was obviously targeting him.

In fact, the relationship between the two of them was good before, but now, the relationship seems to be completely broken. Hou Zhong looked down on Yuan Ji, and Yuan Ji also looked down on Hou Zhong. The most important thing is that the two of them wanted to support different candidates.

This doomed the two of them to never get together again.

"The fifth prince is young, but with people like us in the court, we can definitely help him handle the government affairs." Hou Zhong said without retreating: "The fifth prince is the most suitable candidate!"

"I think the seventh princess is the most suitable candidate!"

Just when Yuan Ji was about to refute Hou Zhong, a voice suddenly sounded.

The person who spoke was Qi Kai!

Everyone looked at him, not because he also recommended a candidate, but because the candidate he recommended was too special!

Zhao Qi, that's a princess, not a prince!

How can a woman be the emperor of their Yanfeng Kingdom?

"Minister Qi, what are you doing?" Yuanji said dissatisfiedly: "If you really don't have any suitable candidates to recommend, then don't speak."

Obviously, Yuanji also looked down on Qi Kai. Although Qi Kai was also a minister, in Yuanji's heart, Qi Kai was no different from other ministers and was not qualified to be compared with him.

And Hou Zhong also laughed at Qi Kai sarcastically and said: "Minister Qi is really a joke. He can actually come up with such an interesting candidate. I really admire him."
