Chapter 1154 (1/2)

After thirty-one, the time entered the 19th year of Jingming.

At the 15th National Congress of the first month, Emperor Liu Zhao and empress Gu Jiu appeared together in the Jinluan hall.

Civil and military officials were surprised.

The clan was surprised,

the princes and princesses were also surprised.

Everyone looked at each other with doubts in their hearts.

Over the years, the empress appeared in the palace for the first time.

Although, every great political turmoil, every game between imperial power and prime minister, every big decision, there is the shadow of empress behind.

But the empress always abides by the minimum bottom line, and does not appear in public in front of the courtiers, and does not publicly express any views.

What's going on today?

Why did the queen break the bottom line and show up with her Majesty in the early morning, and it was the first big court meeting in the new year.

What's the point?

I don't know when beside the Dragon chair, there is an extra chair, side by side with the Dragon chair.

The emperor and empress sat down and looked at each other.

Liu Zhao was obviously nervous and his palms were sweating.

Gu Jiu clenched his hand and whispered, ”it's too late to change your mind now.”

Liu Zhao shook his head slightly, and his mind was determined.

Gu Jiu can't help but think of the fifth day of the first month. When she woke up early in the morning, Liu Zhao suddenly told her, ”I have made a decision. I want to abdicate.”

At that time, Gu Jiu couldn't get back to God.

After that conversation, she always thought that Liu Zhao would give up abdication and stick to the throne until the day of his death.

She had decided to forget about her abdication, as if nothing had happened.

Who would have thought that Liu Zhao still insisted on abdication.

This decision is too difficult!

Clearly, it is a test of human nature.

And humanity is the most untested thing.

Gu Jiu said that no matter what decision Liu Zhao made, she would support it. This is true.

She knew too well the difficulties and the hardships.

To her surprise, Liu Zhao made the most difficult decision.

At the time, she couldn't help asking, ”are you sure? One day you will regret it, and even then you will abdicate? ”

Liu Zhao said to her at that time: ”whether I abdicate or not, I will inevitably regret it. These days, I have been thinking about this issue. Since any decision will be regretted, it is better to choose a decision that has no regrets even if it is regretted. ”

Gu Jiu was tongue tied. After a long time, she said, ”you don't have to sacrifice for anyone or anything. You should follow your heart in this matter. ”

”I'm just following my heart. I've been longing to take you on a tour of mountains and rivers and lead a life of immortality.”

Gu Jiu's eyes were red at that time, and tears could not stop falling.

She chased Liu Zhao out, closed the door and cried bitterly.

She did not understand why she cried that day, and she cried so much.

She was upset by the tumbling emotions.

After crying, the mood also calmed down.

The heart is also stable.

She opened the door and pulled Liu Zhao into the room. For the last time, she solemnly asked, ”has it been decided?”

Liu Zhao nodded heavily, ”it's decided!”

”No change?”

”No change! I will officially announce this decision at the 15th National Congress of the first month. I'm a little flustered. I'm afraid someone will go crazy on the spot. At that time, you will accompany me to Jinluan hall. I have arranged the Beijing camp, ready to send troops at any time. Dragon riding guard, jinwuwei, stand by at any time. ”

”You...”

Gu Jiu choked and couldn't speak.

She nodded frequently and promised to attend the great court meeting with him.

So there is today.

Liu Zhao coughed gently, and the noisy Jinluan hall was quiet.

”Today, I have an important announcement! This matter is of great importance. The king of Qi comes to the front. ”

Liu Yuyin, the king of Qi, frowned and hesitated for a second before he came to the front.

”Today, I want to establish Liu Yu, the king of Qi, as the prince of Qi.”

The courtiers were as quiet as chickens.

It's something that I expected for a long time. It's no surprise.

However, it is not necessary for the emperor to make the king of Qi the crown prince. There is no need for Empress and empress to attend the Grand Court meeting together.

”My father...”

Liu Yu, the king of Qi, opened and closed his lips. He could not say a word of the rest.

Gu Jiuchong shook his head slightly and told him not to be impatient.

Liu Zhao continued to speak.

“…… I have been in the army since my childhood Now over 50 years old, suffering from pain and suffering, often feel weak energy, unclear ideas I solemnly declare my abdication today

Boom!

It's like a thunderbolt, bombing everyone's head to pieces.what?

Abdication?

There must be something wrong with the ear!

Sure!

”What did your majesty say? I didn't hear you clearly. ”

”Sounds like abdication.”

”No way!”

”Your Majesty is confused.”

An old minister of seven or eight or ten years old, usually regardless of business, only appeared in the great court meeting, and often pointed to Liu Zhao's nose and scolded the faint monarch.

At the moment, he went out of the crowd, crying, ”Your Majesty is confused! His majesty is prosperous in spring and autumn. He reduced taxes at home, opened commercial roads, enriched the people and strengthened the army. He made more contributions than Taizu. How can we abdicate! I firmly oppose it! ”

”The old minister is also firmly against it.”

More and more officials came forward to oppose Liu Zhao's abdication.

Almost every one of them pointed to Liu Zhao's nose and accused him of being a fool. They always said that he would make trouble sooner or later.

As the years went by and the trouble did not start, Dazhou Jiangshan became more and more visible to the naked eye, and the people's lives became better and better.

With the increase of official salaries, officials who have retired for retirement can receive a small amount of retirement pension every month and spend their old age in peace.

Everything is moving in a good direction.

The future can be expected!

The great Zhou Dynasty has been in its heyday.
