I'll hand over the system soon.

Chapter 323 The world of peaches and plums (40)

Dali Temple did not dare to pronounce a verdict when it concerned the prince, and had to leave it to Emperor Xiao himself to judge.

So the third prince also liked the idea of ​​being demoted to a commoner and being sent to the imperial mausoleum, and went to keep company with the eldest prince.

Two months passed, and Emperor Xiao became increasingly ill.

I don't know if it was due to too much stimulation, but my eyes were so crooked and my mouth was slanted, as if I had had a stroke.

Emperor Xiao's appearance made the courtiers more and more uneasy, and the voices in the court became louder for the crown prince.

After the eldest prince and the third prince fell one after another, the fourth prince began to show off, as if the throne was already in his possession.

Facts have proved that you can't be too arrogant, otherwise you will be targeted.

The fourth prince is now a clear target.

A few days later, the fourth prince was also presented with piles of evidence.

But this time it wasn't Sancho who made the move.

Emperor Xiao himself sent someone to do it.

He couldn't hold on any longer and had to clear the way for his second son as soon as possible.

"Sir, do you think we are inferior to the second brother? For the sake of the second brother, my father personally attacked the fourth brother."

Xiao Zhen felt that he could not understand his father.

Obviously they are all his sons, but he was weak since he was a child and could not get close to his father. Later, he went to Xuzhou and was very estranged from his father. It was understandable that his father did not care about him as his legitimate son.

But the fourth brother grew up beside his father, how could his father be so cruel?

"People's hearts are naturally biased. How can there be so many reasons?" Sancho asked, "Even you, will you be able to guarantee fairness and justice to each of your descendants in the future?"

"Why not? I don't want to be like my father, who is born without education and is a father in vain!" Xiao Zhen retorted impulsively.

My father governed the country very well, but under his rule, the eldest brother murdered so many innocent women, the third brother's family occupied fertile land, and how many people were forced to become slaves?

Can the achievements of my father be compared with these human lives?

Sancho smiled and touched the head of this somewhat immature boy. He did not hit him or praise him. He just said: "I hope you will always remember what you said today and remember your original intention in the future."

The young man who had not been touched and killed for a long time, his face suddenly turned red, and he said unnaturally: "Don't worry, sir, I will always remember it."

He will become a good emperor and make Mr. proud of him!

The eldest prince has fallen, the third prince and the fourth prince have also fallen. According to the rule that there is a direct descendant and no direct descendant, the fifteenth prince Xiao Zhen is now the most suitable candidate for the crown prince.

The people of the Zhang family exerted their strength, and the memorials proclaiming the fifteenth prince as the crown prince flooded towards Emperor Xiao like a tide.

Emperor Xiao wanted to repeat his old tricks, but Xiao Zhen had nothing for him to use.

So Emperor Xiao refused the courtiers on the grounds that Xiao Zhen was weak.

But the courtiers are not blind. Now Xiao Zhen has obviously cured his frailty and is so healthy that he can compare with many men in the capital.

However, Emperor Xiao's refusal allowed the courtiers to understand his thoughts.

It turns out that the fifteenth prince is not the prince that Emperor Xiao prefers?

Once they figured out this meaning, the people behind the Sixth Prince were happy.

The only ones who can take that position now are the second prince, the sixth prince and the fifteenth prince.

Although the second prince had brought down the eldest prince before, the second prince was too mediocre. He had never been famous, had no maternal power, and had no past achievements of his own.

Therefore, the court officials never took the second prince seriously.

So after the request to establish the fifteenth prince was rejected, the courtiers behind the sixth prince began to write letters one after another to establish the sixth prince as the crown prince.

This time, Emperor Xiao did not explicitly refuse. Instead, he said with an ambiguous attitude that he would consider it.

Instead of establishing a direct heir, he established a sixth prince. This behavior of Emperor Xiao was undoubtedly trying to provoke everyone's nerves, and it was also trying to sow discord between the fifteenth prince and the sixth prince.

"Oh, if I hadn't known that my father's real preference was the second prince, I wouldn't have really wanted to fight to the death with my sixth brother." Xiao Zhen drank a glass of wine and vented his sadness to Sancho.

"Children, don't drink too much." After advising him, Sancho stopped admonishing him.

Being used as a pawn by his own father, he also hoped that he would fight with his sixth brother so that the second prince could reap the benefits.

The listeners are sad and the listeners are in tears.

Xiao Zhen didn't cry, but he felt bad. He poured one drink after another, and finally stopped before he was completely drunk.

Sir hates drunkards.

However, what no one expected was that after Xiao Zhen finished venting his anger, the Sixth Prince would take action on his own in the morning of the next day.

The sixth prince reported to the court that he believed that his character and strategy were not qualified for the position of prince. Since ancient times, there had been a rule that only direct descendants should be established, and no direct descendants should be established. He hoped that Emperor Xiao would not break the ancestral rules.

Xiuzhan was not qualified to go to the morning court, so Sancho was really stunned for a long time after hearing what the sixth prince did in the morning court.

Good guy, she actually called him good guy.

Co-author The Sixth Prince really doesn’t want to be the emperor.

And he dared to disobey Emperor Xiao in front of everyone and persuade him not to break the ancestral rules. How can this be described as brave?

The sixth prince's bravery not only caught Emperor Xiao off guard, but also made many courtiers bewildered.

Especially the courtiers who supported the Sixth Prince.

Who would have thought that the people they supported would backstab them.

The Sixth Prince only cared about Yong himself and didn't care what others thought. He withdrew immediately after Yong Yong and applied to the emperor to go to Youzhou Army for training.

The Sixth Prince's mother clan is in Yongzhou, but he applied to go to Youzhou for training and went to the sphere of influence of Marquis Guanwu, avoiding his mother clan.

Anyone with eyes can see that the Sixth Prince voluntarily gave up the fight for the throne and showed his sincerity to Xiao Zhen.

The sixth prince's move made Emperor Xiao's eyes turn red, and he looked at Xiao Zhen as if he were an enemy.

After all, Xiao Zhen was still not immune to the damage from Emperor Xiao, and he was in a very low mood for several days.

Sancho then handed him a deposition and several witnesses.

"If you want to take revenge on him, then give these to him with your own hands to see." Sancho paused and added: "Let him see how blind he is."

Xiao Zhen took what Sancho handed over, but before he had time to look at it, Si Qun said that the Sixth Prince was here.

The two looked at each other and asked the Sixth Prince to be invited in.

The Sixth Prince is an exceptionally tall man with a muscular body, and his extraordinary kung fu can be seen when he walks.

"I'm here to remind you to pay more attention to your second brother."

The Sixth Prince came straight to the table and dropped a bombshell as soon as he sat down.

Sancho drank tea by himself and handed over the home court to Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen smiled and pretended to be confused, "My younger brother doesn't understand what Brother Six means."

The sixth prince frowned, not very satisfied with Xiao Zhen pretending to be in front of him.

However, thinking that his fifteenth brother would be the future emperor and that he would have to live under him in the future, the sixth prince suppressed his temper.

Two updates together, good night, my dears, I won’t be lying in the canyon today, I’ll save the manuscript!
