Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"Today, His Majesty is still in the East Palace to manually implement the family law. This is because His Majesty has moved to abolish the Crown Prince!" Zhong Wang said without any hindrance.

Hearing what he said, the officials were shocked.

Gao Ming coughed repeatedly, completely refusing to answer King Zhong's words.

Because the matter of abolishing the crown prince should be decided by the emperor Gan Gang, and it is not for the courtiers to discuss.

King Zhong's words are clearly presumptuous.

Prince Li Chengji's face was even more ugly.

"Lord King, your eyes and ears are pretty good." Emperor Li Yu said coldly.

He had just mobilized the family law to beat the prince, and King Zhong received the news immediately. This clearly means that he arranged eyeliner in the palace.

And as an emperor, what he hates the most is that his courtiers have unruly intentions.

Putting eyeliner by your side, isn't it a suspicion of coveting? !

"Your servant is terrified." Knowing that he had slipped his words, King Zhong quickly bowed and said.

However, looking at him, Xiang Nan didn't see the slightest sign of panic, and couldn't help thinking in his heart that King Zhong looked cunning, but he was actually confused.

Since ancient times, in order to maintain the rule, the emperor would set up rules, requiring the inner court not to make friends with foreign ministers. The fear is that internal and external collusion will cause chaos.

But since ancient times, in order to try to figure out what is going on, the foreign ministers will inevitably hook up with the internal ministers. But this matter is classified as top secret, even if it is done, it must not be said.

King Zhong was above the main hall, in front of the emperor, prince, and ministers, openly declaring that he had an eyeliner in the palace. After being beaten by the emperor, he was still perfunctory in such an understatement, it was simply arrogant, arrogant, and reckless.

It's no wonder that it collapsed soon, and ended up being demoted to the people, and will never be an official.

...

"Marriage is also a matter of the harem. According to the concubine's wife, the nine princesses of Xizhou must marry the prince of my rich dynasty. No matter who is the prince, the East Palace is there. Why don't you send an envoy first?" In the name of the East Palace, I went to ask for marriage in order to prevent the current situation from being unstable and causing turmoil." At this time, Empress Zhang Meiniang said.

When Xiang Nan heard this, he sighed inwardly, Zhang Meiniang is not a smart person either.

As a queen, her duty is to take care of the harem, so she can also discuss the matter of abolishing the crown prince? ! Besides, she herself is an interested party, so she can't talk too much at this time, so as not to make the truth.

Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Li Yu still refused to speak.

"Your Majesty, I think it's still..." Zhong Wang said again at this time.

Xiang Nan was worried for the second prince. With such a pig teammate, no matter how wise, fierce, cunning he is, he would still be held back.

Judging from the beating of the emperor just now, it is obvious that he is very dissatisfied with King Zhong. If he's smart enough, he should shut up now. But he still has to say, it's too blind to see.

"Your Majesty, the veteran also has suggestions..." At this time, Gao Ming suddenly interjected.

"Master Gao, the old minister hasn't finished yet." Seeing that he stopped him from speaking, King Zhong couldn't help but glared at him dissatisfied.

The emperor Li Zhen ignored him at all, but turned his head to look at Gao Ming, "Please tell me, Prime Minister Gao~"

King Zhong immediately became ashamed, making Xiang Nan feel ashamed for him.

"Your Majesty, the old minister suggested that the prince lead a mission to Xizhou to ask for relatives.

The crown prince is young and energetic, this time he supervised the case of raising a son, because he misunderstood the slander and misunderstood his ministers. Your Majesty trusts me, and I am very grateful. As a father, I know the truth of deep love and deep responsibility.

Please Your Majesty, let the prince make up for his mistakes. If during this trip to the west, the prince can complete the mission of marriage and return to the court with meritorious service, it will just block the mouths of the civil and military people in the Manchu dynasty. "Gao Ming said immediately.

These words were decent and beautiful, and won my heart, so Xiang Nan secretly gave him a thumbs up.

You must know that Li Chengji has been the prince for more than ten years. People have feelings for raising a dog for several months, let alone a son who has been raised for more than ten years.

No matter how hard-hearted Li Xi is, he still has feelings for Li Chengji.

Just like what Li Chengyin said, "I have envied you the most since I was a child, not because you are the prince, but because every time my father looks at you, I am more like a father."

Therefore, he actually didn't want to waste the successor who had worked hard for more than 20 years because of this case.

King Zhong and Zhang Meiniang didn't understand this point, but Gao Ming knew the emperor's psychology well, so he suggested that the prince should take the crime and make meritorious service.

Asking to marry the nine princesses and stabilizing the western region is naturally a great contribution to the rich dynasty.

In this way, give the emperor a step so that he can go down the donkey. Not only to keep the position of the prince, but also save his own face.

After all, the crown prince scolded the emperor as a faint king, cold-blooded and ruthless, covering up traitors, ignoring the laws of the country, and still wearing filial piety in the palace. It was impossible for the emperor not to be angry, so he had to let it out.

Moreover, he said good things for the prince, and he can clear himself of the suspicion of framing the prince by bribing scholars.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone, extremely clever.

Sure enough, after listening to Gao Ming's suggestion, Emperor Li Xi finally nodded his head.

...

Later, the emperor issued a decree to demote Li Chengji from prince to prince. But it will inevitably cause turmoil in the government and the opposition, so it is kept secret.

He ordered him to visit Princess Mingyuan in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and asked the King of Xizhou to marry Princess Nine by the way. Go to the Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory to serve. If you have not made military achievements, you are not allowed to return to the court.

Three days later, Xiang Nan went to Chengtian Gate to see Prince Li Chengji off.

After arriving there, I saw the Habayashi army standing on both sides of the imperial road, with bright armor.

There was a magnificent cart parked on the royal road, which was the prince's chariot.

At this time, he was also standing there with a solemn face.

"Brother, why are you here~" Xiang Nan stepped forward, and after seeing the ceremony, he let out a long sigh.

If the prince doesn't make mistakes, he will become the Ninth Five-Year King sooner or later. There is no other brother's share in this emperor's throne.

Now he has ended up being crippled, and not long after, he will be assassinated twice in a row, which is really pitiful.

"Fifth brother, before the emperor leaves, I would like to tell you that the crown prince is more difficult than the emperor, and the east palace is more dangerous than the imperial palace." Li Chengji told Xiang Nandao, "Be careful in everything in the future and take care of yourself."

Xiang Nan nodded, "Thank you, brother, I will keep it in mind."

Since ancient times, the royal family has no father and son, and the emperor has always had younger brothers.

The crown prince is the sole legal heir to the throne. As long as the emperor can successfully ascend the throne once he dies, he will naturally become the person the emperor fears the most. After all, no one likes a person who is looking forward to his own death.

Therefore, princes in all dynasties are high-risk occupations. Neither can the performance be too good to make the emperor feel wary; nor can the performance be too mediocre to make the emperor feel disgusted.

It is very difficult to control the proportion.

Therefore, since ancient times, it is not easy to be a prince, and countless people have been deposed and killed.

...

While the two were talking, the second prince Li Chengye, the third prince Li Chengwen, and the fourth prince Li Chengyuan also came to express their farewell to their elder brother Li Chengji.

Especially the second prince Li Chengye's eyes were red, which made Xiang Nan admire his good acting skills.

You know, in the play, it was he who sent an assassin to pretend to be a Danchi man to kill Li Chengji, and use this to become the prince of the East Palace.

Afterwards, Emperor Li Zhen and Empress Zhang Meiniang arrived and sent Prince Li Chengji on the road together.
