Prince Yu thought for a moment and soon noticed something unusual.
"Regardless of whether this matter is true as the gentleman said, this king cannot gamble."
"First, Xie Yu planned to take the position of the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards. If the prince gets the support of Duke Ji, then this king will basically lose."
"Sir, do you think that my priority is to stop this?"
Prince Yu looked at Mei Changsu and asked.
Mei Changsu shook his head slightly:"Not to stop it, but to help Prince Ming collect evidence against Duke Wu and take the opportunity to drive him into the abyss."
"First, this way, His Highness can gain the favor of the King of Ming, and this deal is not a loss at all. After all, the Duke of Wu was originally the Prince's man."
"Secondly, the origin of Duke Ji is ultimately Duke Wu. If Duke Wu can't save him, what will happen to Duke Ji? After all, a grandson is just an outsider, how can he be as valuable as the bloodline of the Duke Ji's family?"
"Thirdly, the Emperor also hopes to see this result, because a useless Duke of Wu is worthless, so why waste so much food and land?"
Prince Yu nodded and said,"What you said makes sense, regardless of whether this Duke Ji has served the Crown Prince, this Duke of Wu cannot be kept."
"But if Duke Ji had already pledged his allegiance to the Crown Prince, would he........."
Before Prince Yu finished speaking, Mei Changsu interrupted him and said,"No, if he has already served the Crown Prince, this is good news for Your Highness."
"Because the enemy in the open is more terrifying than the enemy in the dark."
"If he has not yet joined the Crown Prince, he will not retaliate. At least, he will keep quiet until you and the Crown Prince have decided the winner.
Prince Yu nodded and looked at Qin Banruo:"Banruo, this matter is left to you. Find the evidence of Duke Wu's crime as soon as possible. Once you find it, send it directly to the Jingzhao Prefecture Yamen, and then let our censor impeach him in the court."
""Yes!"
Qin Banruo nodded.
Mei Changsu also smiled and nodded when he saw this.
He did this because he wanted to help Xiao Jingli.
When the commander of the personal guards of Prince Ming's Palace said those words, he knew Xiao Jingli's decision.
In this case, let Prince Yu kill him.
Duke Ji's Mansion.
Main Hall.
Duke Ji looked at his daughter who was kneeling on the ground and crying with a headache.
"Okay, stop crying."
"You said you taught your son well."
"Shaoshan is becoming more and more daring now. Does he really think that he can do whatever he wants after becoming a Duke?"
"ah???"
"He even dares to offend the prince of the time. Does he think he is the crown prince?"
"Didn’t you see that the prince didn’t even enter the gate of Prince Ming’s Palace?"
"Now, the prince has sent a message that unless I vote for him, he will not help me."
"You, you, in the battle for the throne, Duke Qing has already lost, do you want my Duke Ji's Mansion to be buried with your Duke Wu's Mansion?"
Duke Ji became more and more angry as he spoke
"Father, Shaoshan is your grandson, you can't not save him."
"I, I only have this one son!"
Mrs. Wu cried.
"You, you, ah, you really marry a daughter and spill water. You were very smart when you were young, how could you not see the danger."
After saying this, Duke Ji walked out angrily.
Outside.
Duke Ji's sons and grandsons stood here one after another
"Dad, do we really want to participate in the fight for the throne?"
"Yes, Dad, we are already a Duke. Even if we have the merit of following the dragon, we can't be crowned king. The risks and benefits involved are really not worth it."
"Grandpa, what happened to the Duke of Qing?........."
"Dad, I don't have the Duke Ji's Mansion in my heart anymore. All I think about is the Duke Wu's Mansion."
"Dad, think twice." (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Duke Ji looked at his sons and grandsons and sighed,"But have you ever thought about this? It didn't matter before, but now the prince is forcing us to make a decision. If we still refuse, then when the prince ascends the throne in the future, our family will be in trouble."
"Grandpa, if it really doesn't work, we can just turn to Prince Yu."
"What nonsense! The matter of succession is not that simple. Don't interfere, kid."
At this time, the prince of Duke Ji's Mansion said,"Dad, Shaoshan is Duke Wu, and we are Duke Ji's Mansion. It's not a big deal on weekdays, but you see, this Duke Wu doesn't even take His Royal Highness Ming Wang seriously. He is so reckless. I'm afraid that he will be punished by the family in the future."
"Dad, in my opinion, since you don't want to participate in the fight for the throne, why don't you join the Ming King?"[]
"As we all know, His Royal Highness Prince Ming will never become the emperor, but His Royal Highness Prince Ming has a high reputation. Whether it is the crown prince or Prince Yu who ascends the throne in the future, it will not be a problem to protect our Duke Ji's Mansion."
The eldest son's words instantly made Duke Ji fall into deep thought.
Yes, it's just a matter of finding a backer. Finding someone who will not compete for the throne at all, wouldn't it be extremely safe?
What's more, this person is a sage of the royal family and is famous all over the world.
No matter who ascends the throne in the future, the emperor will not embarrass the other party, otherwise, all the Xiao royal family will not stand idly by.
Such a person is enough to protect the Duke Ji's Mansion.
"You are right. Prepare the carriage. I am going to the Ming Palace.
Duke Ji made a quick decision.
The news that Duke Ji was going to the Ming Palace by carriage was soon known to several major forces.
The East Palace.
The prince looked at Xie Yu in confusion.
Xie Yu frowned and said,"Your Highness, this old fox is going to abandon his grandson and join the Ming King."
The prince said aggrievedly,"He, he, how could he do this?"
"Does he really not want his grandson? His grandson is a duke."
Xie Yu sighed,"Your Highness, grandsons are outsiders after all. What's more, Duke Wu has no power at all, and even relies on Duke Ji's mansion a lot of the time. What's the loss if he gives him up?"
"Anyway, it's just getting rid of a hidden danger."
Prince Yu's Mansion.
Prince Yu was also stunned for a moment.
Mei Changsu smiled and said,"Congratulations, Your Highness, you have eliminated a hidden danger."
"Hahahahahahahahaha."
Prince Yu laughed and said,"Duke Ji made a brilliant move. The Crown Prince probably couldn't have imagined that he forced others and they finally surrendered to Prince Ming.""
"Alas, what a pity"
"How great it would be if you could surrender to me."
"Jing Li really made a fortune this time."
Mei Changsu smiled and said,"Your Highness, Prince Ming will never participate in the fight for the throne. Duke Ji joined him just to avoid the fight for the throne. This is a good thing for you, better than Duke Ji joining the Crown Prince."
Prince Yu nodded and said,"Yes, that's right.""
