Li Tai was so happy today.

Although he knew about Li Chengqian's mistakes before, he also guessed that the emperor would depose Li Chengqian as the crown prince.

But after all, things haven't happened yet, and all accidents are possible.

During the court meeting, although Li Tai was happy, he was still a little worried after all.

But what he didn't expect was that Wei Zheng would reveal all the bad things Li Chengqian had done behind his back in front of all the civil and military officials.

Li Tai, who was originally worried that the emperor would take the matter lightly for the sake of the overall situation, no longer had such worries.

All the unsavory things had been wiped out, and the emperor immediately issued an edict to depose Li Chengqian as the crown prince.

There is no other way.

Li Tai felt that he should be grateful to Wei Zheng and Zhao Chen, if they had not revealed all the bad things about Li Chengqian in front of the officials without any scruples.

As the King of Wei, he might have to wait a long time before he can take a step forward.

Now!

When Li Chengqian is deposed, it will be his opportunity for Li Tai to make progress.

At this moment, it's time to make good preparations and win over the courtiers.

"Chai Lingwu, after you go back today, send a message to the king and ask Chai's consort to come to my palace for a banquet at noon tomorrow." Li Tai said to Chai Lingwu beside him.

"By the way, you should go back now and take a look at what Du He is doing now."

"Since Li Chengqian no longer needs him, I can recruit him here."

"Haha!" Li Tai's excited laughter came from inside Prince Wei's palace.

Compared with Li Tai's happiness, Li Shimin almost died of anger in the Tai Chi Hall.

When he heard that Wei Zheng had revealed all the unsavory things he had done to Li Chengqian, Li Shimin wanted to rush down and kill Wei Zheng, an old man.

This already pissed him off half to death.

But Zhao Chen is the one

The bastard wants to jump out and say that what Wei Zheng said was actually what Zhao Chen asked Wei Zheng to say.

What said it, who said it, wouldn’t Li Shimin know?

Wei Zheng's words were clearly meant to put Li Chengqian to death so that he would never be able to stand up again.

Wei Zheng was Li Chengqian's teacher before. As for putting Li Chengqian to death like this?

Li Shimin also knew that Wei Zheng did this just to help Zhao Chen completely eradicate the scourge of Li Chengqian.

Zhao Chen also understood what Wei Zheng meant, so he jumped out and said that he asked Wei Zheng to say it.

They protect each other and cherish each other, but they treat Li Shimin like a monkey.

Let all officials watch a good show.

At this moment, Lao Li's head felt like his eyes were getting dark. When he came to the Li Zheng Hall, he drank a lot of tea but didn't feel relieved.

"Guanyin Maid, I shouldn't have gone to the Wangyou Tavern in the first place. I almost died of anger in the Tai Chi Hall today!" The emperor put down the teapot in his hand and said in a muffled voice.

Although Empress Changsun did not go to Taiji Hall to attend court, she had just heard about what happened there.

Even she felt a little uncomfortable when she heard what happened in the court just now.

After all, it is about the face of the royal family. If it is made public like this, the entire Tang royal family will lose face.

"Your Majesty did the right thing. You must let that boy Zhao Chen suffer. This matter is related to the face of the Tang Dynasty royal family."

"Don't he like to expose things? As a member of the Tang Dynasty royal family, he also has to suffer."

"Your Majesty, if Zhao Chen is not to be tortured, all whippings and brandings should be given to him, so that he can remember it for a long time." Empress Changsun suggested to the emperor.

At first, the emperor thought that Empress Changsun was helping.

I wanted to punish Zhao Chen for venting his anger.

But after hearing this, the taste seemed to have changed.

What does it mean to torture Zhao Chen?

He was also whipped and branded.

Zhao Chen was his biological son, even though he, the emperor, almost died of anger in Tai Chi Hall.

But if he really wanted to deal with Zhao Chen like this, the emperor still couldn't bear it.

"Mr. Guanyin, I feel that old guy Wei Zheng is more hateful than that little brat Zhao Chen. When he dies, I will definitely have his grave dug up!" Li Shimin doesn't want to deal with Zhao Chen, but that doesn't mean he won't. Hate Wei Zheng.

He obviously wanted Fang Xuanling to talk about the prince.

Fang Xuanling knew what she meant and would definitely not say those shameful things.

As a result, Wei Zheng, an old man, came up and took off the mask of the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, revealing the wretchedness inside.

The emperor hates this...

"Your Majesty also knows that Dr. Wei can't tolerate sand in his eyes, he will do whatever he wants!"

"Since the prince dares to do such a thing, your majesty and my concubine must be prepared to accept the consequences."

"Doctor Wei didn't do anything wrong." Empress Changsun still advised.

Ever since the last time the emperor ordered the massacre of servants and guards in the East Palace, Empress Changsun had expected such an incident today.

Paper cannot contain fire, and whatever is supposed to happen will happen sooner or later.

"I don't care, I will make those two guys suffer this time. If I don't lock them up for a month, the fire in my stomach will never come out!" The emperor snorted coldly.

Queen Changsun shook her head.

Since the emperor has already made his decision, she will naturally not try to persuade him.

Moreover, Empress Changsun also felt that Zhao Chen's behavior in front of the emperor in the past two days was very disrespectful.

Don't encourage his arrogance.

The emperor is not only the emperor, but also his father.

How can any son talk to his father like that?

"Your Majesty can make the decision. What will your Majesty do with the prince?" Queen Changsun asked the emperor.

Empress Changsun still wanted to know what the emperor planned to do with Li Chengqian.

After all, it was the child she had raised for seventeen years. Even if she was not her biological child, she still hoped that Li Chengqian would have a good ending.

This is something that Queen Changsun has been thinking about since she learned about Zhao Chen's identity.

Today, things finally came to this point.

"I plan to let him go to Wu Di and take charge of this area. He will not be allowed to return to Chang'an in the future."

"How do you feel, Guanyin?" The emperor was silent for a moment, sighed slightly, and said to Empress Changsun.

After hearing that Li Chengqian would no longer be allowed to visit Chang'an in the future, Queen Changsun's heart sank.

After all, they are the children I watched grow up.

Even if she made a big mistake, she didn't want to never see Li Chengqian again in this life.

"Wu Di is good, but he is there alone. In my heart..."

"Aren't we also going to Wudi after the new year? If he performs well there, I might change my mind."

"However, it is absolutely impossible for him to sit in the position of prince again." The emperor and Empress Changsun said.

"I would like to thank Your Majesty on behalf of the Crown Prince!" Empress Changsun said with joy on her face.

After all, the emperor did not get everything done completely. As long as Li Chengqian performed well, whether he could return to Chang'an City in the future was just a matter of the emperor's words.

No matter how good the land of Wu is, it is not as good as the city of Chang'an.

"Tomorrow I will have Zhongshu Sheng draft an edict to depose Li Chengqian as the crown prince and demote him to the land of Wu."

"You go and see him again today." The emperor told Empress Changsun, looking at the empty teapot from which he drank, with a look of self-mockery on his face.
