He has always been very afraid of Empress Dowager Li, but this has never changed.

Empress Dowager Li is such a smart woman. Of course, she saw her son’s intention. She deliberately took good care of Concubine Wang Gong. In fact, she was showing her attitude to Wanli. I supported Zhu Changluo.

If you say this directly, the emperor will be very embarrassed. Whether the empress dowager has the final say or the emperor has the final say.

As a virtuous queen, Empress Li would never say bluntly who should be appointed as the crown prince.

Empress Dowager Li's attitude made Wanli know that this was really difficult.

He no longer insisted because he still had a lot to do and was unwilling to waste his energy on this small matter.

Putting aside the imperial power, purely from the perspective of the crown prince, this is really a trivial matter. After all, he is still so young, and he can be established today and abolished tomorrow.

If he is fifty or sixty years old, then nothing is more important and is the top priority. Since ancient times, those great emperors, such as Emperor Wu and Emperor Tang of Han, have dealt with national issues in their later years. When they were young, they didn't care much, so they had no skills.

But now, career is more important and love is put second.

However, this caught the ministers off guard again.

When the ministers heard the news, their eyes fell out, and the court was silent.

They were all armed to the teeth and were waiting for Wanli to abolish the eldest son. As a result, Wanli suddenly announced the establishment of the eldest son as they wished.

this……!

There is no joy of victory at all.

Instead, he was confused!

The ministers were completely confused.

Because the emperor is now taking the initiative, not because they are forced to have no choice but to make the eldest son the crown prince.

This is not a victory!

So what should we do next?

Why does this emperor always play by the rules?

Even Aunt Xu felt like watching the flowers in the fog...

"What did Your Majesty talk to you that night?"

Aunt Xu couldn't help but ask Guo Dan.

She thought it was Guo Dan who changed Wanli's idea.

But she really thought too much.

Guo Dan said truthfully: "Didn't I tell you all?"

"This is impossible!" Aunt Xu frowned and said, "If that were the case, your Majesty would obviously want to abolish the elders and establish the young people."

Guo Dan laughed and said, "I didn't expect that the lay Buddhists would be confused."

Aunt Xu said in surprise: "Do you know?"

Guo Dan nodded.

Aunt Xu hurriedly asked, "Why?"

Guo Tan smiled and said, "You see, I'll know. My youngest son has just been born, but I have spent very little time with him. It's not that I don't want to grow up with him, but for men, career is always the most important thing. Do you really think that the dispute over the country's foundation is more important than expanding territory and expanding territory than a heroic career?"

Aunt Xu suddenly realized.

In fact, Guo Dan had also judged that he would abolish the eldest son and establish the young master before, but when he heard the news, he immediately realized that he was the only one who guessed it.

Because he has never understood why he has to fight for the foundation of the country.

It is obviously not worth it to give up reforms for the sake of the foundation of the country and give up the expansion of territory.

He just didn't dare to say it out.

He rarely cares about the dispute over the country's foundation, and he doesn't agree with it from the bottom of his heart.

Wanli is the most supportive of doing this. He smiled and said, "Now it can be considered as removing this burden and being able to do it with your arms."

As he said that, he picked up a document from the table and handed it to Aunt Xu.

"What is this?" Aunt Xu took it.
