One day in August.
Morning.
The land of Jiangdong has just passed the rainy season, in the sky above Jinling City, under the sunshine, there is a wave of depressing mold, and the air has become extremely fresh, making people feel refreshed.
"Husband, get up" "Let me sleep a little longer" "No, husband, I read your schedule yesterday, and there is still an hour to go, you have to go to the cabinet meeting this morning, you can't be late, otherwise the Imperial Observatory will impeach you again" "Let them impeach" "Husband" "Lady, come and kiss one" "Don't make a fuss" "If you don't kiss, I won't get up" In the inner hall of Fengyi Palace, Cai Yan spent a while trying to pull Sun Quan, a super lazy man, out of the soft and gentle township.
Although she is the queen, she has always been used to changing Sun Quan's clothes in person, a pair of Qianqian jade hands put on a brocade white robe for Sun Quan, and then tied a jade belt, and suddenly said: "Husband, I heard that Sheng Yuan and Yuanbao had a falling out a few days ago."
Sun Shao entered the palace as a hostage when Sun Quan ascended the throne, and he was raised by Cai Yan all along.
Now looking at the ups and downs between Sun Shao and her son Sun Sheng, she feels a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Suddenly, she had the reason why Wu Wan, the queen mother, was always so sad.
"They're going to fall out sooner or later" Sun Quan was not surprised by this, a wicked smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he said a little indifferently: "Yuanbao's ambition, I, as a father, naturally can't control him, he is my eldest son, it stands to reason that my position should be his, but" Saying that, he himself shook his head, this rule was set by him, he had to abide by it, he continued: "As for Sheng Yuan, he is young and brave, quite domineering like his father, the young man studied from me, and there are some calmness that his father did not have, such a young man who is both civil and military, he will not be willing to follow Yuanbao's ass forever, Yuanbao wants to form an alliance with him, let him help him ascend the throne, he is looking for the wrong person, and it is normal to turn his face" Sun Shao and Sun Sheng's personalities are not all the way.
When I was a child, I played well, but when I grew up, many things were different, and everyone had their own attachments.
Sun Sheng was arrogant when he was a teenager, but the more he grew up, the more calm he became, his mind became deeper and deeper, and he was a little smart, but his bearing was not atmospheric enough, and he could never tolerate Sun Shao, and it was a matter of time before they fell out.
In the two years here, the court has become more and more stable, and the world has become more and more peaceful, so the Zongren Mansion has also become more and more frequent in nominating the crown prince, and the competition for the position of the East Palace has begun.
The prince of the East Palace, that is, the prince of the first dynasty.
This is closely related to the lives of many people, especially the younger generation, so even in the three provinces and eight ministries of the DPRK and China, many people have begun to stand in line.
The three provinces are the cabinet, the military aircraft department, and the imperial history platform, which are the troika that leads the imperial court forward.
Under the three provinces, there are eight departments of the imperial court.
This is the cornerstone that supports the entire imperial court.
Now that even the officials of the three provinces and eight departments have begun to stand in line, it has proved one point that this battle for succession has reached the point of inevitability.
Although Sun Quan is still in his prime, one day, Sun Quan will also grow old and hand over his throne, and the power of the court will eventually usher in a new master.
"Husband, Yuan Bao is young after all, he" Cai Yan, a mother, knew that she was not good at participating in this kind of battle, but she was a little worried about her son.
"Don't worry about him" Sun Quan comforted Cai Yan: "He is now backed by the Cai family, there are many strategists around him, and he is still my eldest son, he has already occupied a natural advantage in this matter."
Although Cai Yan's maiden family has only two or three meows, it is not a simple family.
Cai's current head of the house is Cai Yong's Yizi, Cai Zhi, who is also the prince of the third rank who is now rewarded by the imperial court, the Duke of Gaoyang.
The shadow left by Cai Yong is not tight, it is just a Gaoyang mansion.
Cai Yong is the sacrificial wine of Jiangdong Academy, his protégés are all over the world, and he is also the founder of the Department of Education, and eighty percent of the people in the entire Department of Education, including Cheng Dao, the director of the Department of Education, have been promoted by him.
The most important thing is that Gu Yong and Xu Zhi are all his direct disciples.
Sun Sheng is the only son of Cai Yan, the eldest son, and among many people who have read the books of Confucianism all their lives, he is the only heir to the throne of the Great Wu Dynasty.
In this regard, he has an advantage over Sun Shao and Sun Dong.
"Sister Cai, the Sun clan controls the absolute power of this unparalleled in the world, and there are some things that I can't help it, just like I didn't want to draw my sword with my eldest brother back then, but in the end, we still splashed blood in Jinling, many things, as members of the royal family, we can't dodge, we can't let go" Sun Quan sighed, and said a little helplessly: "Yuanbao has grown up, he wants to fight for this position, Sheng Yuan because of his father, has always been unwilling, unwilling to bend to the people, Xiaodong he is I have grown up educated, although I respect me, but the ambition is not small, Sun Fu, this kid said that he said that he would ignore the matter of seizing the heir, and wanted to stay out of the matter, but he was in the army, bit by bit, all of them were to buy people's hearts, but he wanted to be a yellow bird Now that Sun's talents are more, it is also a headache, what I can do is, a bowl of water is level, who has the ability, Whoever ascends the throne will be on the throne, this is an iron rule, I cannot violate the rules I have set, I am the emperor of the Great Wu Dynasty, the monarch of the nearly 80 million people of the Great Wu Dynasty, since I have taken this responsibility, I must be responsible for my people" Although he suppressed the birth of the crown prince, he was not unconcerned about this matter.
Whether it is the Zongren Mansion or the Jinyi Guard, for the prince candidate, there is a secret report handed to him every month.
"I can understand my husband's hard work, but I am Yuanbao's mother after all, and my mother is worried about her son, that's a matter of course" Cai Yan tied a piece of white jade Feilong's jade pendant around Sun Quan's waist: "I just hope that they can be the same as the eldest brother at the beginning, no matter whether you succeed or fail, you can have a good ending, don't be like the third brother, and finally lose your life" "I try my best to control it, but there are some things that I may not be able to control" Sun Quan shook his head.
The battle for the East Palace is the prince and the future emperor, this kind of competition is more terrifying than the party in the court, it has always been extremely dangerous, the king is defeated, either the winner or the dead.
Sun Quan's current power above the court is monstrous, and it is impossible to say anything.
This alone is beyond our control.
"Fortunately, Ping An was not mixed in," Cai Yan sighed a little.
"Oh, not necessarily" When Sun Quan heard this, he shook his head: "Ping An inherited her mother's character of a small wealth fan, she is not interested in winning the heir, and she is bent on business, but after all, he is my son, and he can't hide, but I don't know where he is standing, and when the little lion grows up in the future, he can't hide either."
None of his sons can escape this battle for succession.
After leaving the Fengyi Palace, Sun Quan went to the Cabinet Hall.
The Cabinet meeting in the morning gathered a number of cabinet ministers to discuss the replacement of governors in the states this year.
Because the order in various places was relatively chaotic when the world was ruled in those years, when the local system was changed and the prefecture and county were established as the main local system, the term of office of the governor of a state was relatively long.
Every five years, that is, after five years of the governor of a state in office, he must be replaced, and he cannot sit in a state for a long time, which will cause the emergence of local overlords, which is not conducive to the control of the imperial court.
Sun Quan was only an observer of this meeting.
After a busy morning, the meeting was over.
When he returned to Fengyi Hall for dinner at noon, Cai Yan went to inspect the women's academy outside the palace, and Zhen Mi was not there, so Sun Quan could only eat alone.
In the afternoon, Sun Quan handled government affairs in the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the chief of staff of the Hun Legion has never been able to decide" "Didn't you choose a few before" Sun Quan looked at the establishment and officer names on this Hun Legion, frowned slightly, and asked.
"None of them are quite suitable" Guo Jia smiled bitterly and said: "The Hun Legion is different from other legions, it is capable of serving as the chief of staff of the Hun Legion, and it has to have a good relationship with Jia Xu, and it is even more difficult to check and balance Jia Xu."
"I'm alone," Sun Quan glanced at a figure on his left.
"Who" "Dezu, come out" Sun Quan looked at Yang Xiu in the staff office on the left and said lightly.
"Minister, Yang Xiu, meet Your Majesty" Yang Xiu heard this, and hurriedly walked out to meet Sun Quan.
"You've been in the study for a few years."
"Two years" "Two years, not long, not short" Sun Quan examined him: "I will give you a chance now, the Hun Legion lacks a chief of staff, do you dare to take office" This chief of staff didn't see that it was a beautiful errand, and it was more likely that he was roasting on a stove.
"Minister, why don't you dare?"
Yang Xiu fought against Zhuge Jin and Guo Jia in the imperial study, his personality was a lot calmer, and he was no longer the Yang Xiu who only had some little cleverness, his own wisdom was good, and he precipitated like a hidden sword: "There is Your Majesty behind the minister, there is the Great Wu Imperial Court, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, you dare to break through" "Haha, good" Sun Quan hoped that he would be so sharp: "I will directly appoint you as the chief of staff of the Xiongnu Legion now, and you will take over the work within three days, and then go to the military aircraft to obey the order, and you will be limited to go north to the grassland within ten days."
"Minister, obey the order" Yang Xiu saluted respectfully, and then left the imperial study to prepare.
"Your Majesty, can Yang Dezu be able to watch Jia Xu?"
"How can he look at Jia Xu" Sun Quan smiled: "You think too much, what I want is just an attitude, Jia Wenhe is a smart person, he knows how to let Yang Xiu keep an eye on him, the reason why he chose Yang Xiu, Yang Xiu has done a lot of things to Zhuge Jin over the years, he should be given a chance, his attitude in dealing with foreign issues is still relatively pertinent, he should be able to suppress those arrogant soldiers of the Huns" "Your Majesty plans to send the Hun Legion west" Guo Jia nodded, and then asked.
"Wait a little longer" Sun Quan looked into the distance, and a gleam burst out of his eyes: "Sharpening the knife is not a mistake for chopping wood, the combat effectiveness of the Huns is still okay, but I have to give Jia Xu a little time to straighten out their mentality, this needs to take your time, I can't remember, and what I have is patience, when I shine the knife, it is when the blood flows into a river."
For Sun Quan, he now had only one goal left, the conquest of the Roman Empire.
In the past two years, with the opening of markets between Mesopotamia and the provinces of Syria, he learned more about the Roman Empire.
It is true that this vast empire was not so easy to conquer.
The Roman Empire came from the Republic and has a long history, so their recognition of the Roman Empire, as well as the innate superiority of the Romans are more than those of the Central Plains with thousands of years of history in China.
The Mongols were able to build a great empire that spanned the east and west, the Manchus were able to enter the customs and dominate the Central Plains, and the little devils were able to invade the vast Greater China with an island country, all of which showed that power is the truth.
If you want to conquer them, the first one must completely defeat them, so that you can become their master.
"Your Majesty" Lei Ding walked in from outside the imperial study.
I don't know why this Janissary Commander has been in charge for the past two years, and he suddenly became a lot older, not at all like a middle-aged general, he arched his hand and said: "Commander He Qi came from the military aircraft and asked to see Your Majesty."
"He only returned to Jinling yesterday, and he didn't have a good rest" When Sun Quan heard this, he said, "Please let him in."
"No" Lei fixed his head and took the order.
After a while, He Qi was wearing an ordinary brocade robe, but he walked in striding in from the outside, step by step, obviously the momentum that had just come down from the battlefield.
"The last general He Qi, meet the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live" "No need to be polite" Sun Quan personally walked out and helped him up: "Gongmiao, you have worked hard in the past two years, the days at sea are not comfortable, everyone is recuperating, but your Flame Legion is fighting in all directions, and it is difficult for you."
Since the three-year truce of Tianquan, the Wu army has been recuperating and has no intention of going to war.
But in the waters east of the Indian state established by the Great Wu Dynasty, in the northwestern part of the Roman Empire, the Flame Legion has been at war with the Roman Empire.
From the fourth year of Tianquan to June of the fifth year of Tianquan, it was fought for more than a year.
In the spring of March this year, the Roman Empire suddenly gathered three main legions, 500,000 main forces, and attacked Britain.
This is a pause in the battle.
"To fight for the imperial court, the last general will not work hard," He Qi said loudly.
"Tell me what the situation is in Britain now" Sun Quan sat down and looked at He Qi with slightly narrowed eyes.
The British Isles should be the future of Britain.
But in this era, as far as Sun Quan knew, this was a hidden danger for the Roman Empire, and most of the barbarians who opposed the legitimacy of the Roman Empire had been driven by the Roman Empire to Britain and later Russia. t1706231537:
