Qi Wangfu

"I've seen His Royal Highness King Qi. Murong Yongci was dressed in civilian clothes and saluted Ye Fan.

"Dongbohou, do you know about the king of Xichang?" Ye Fan said.

Murong Yongci's eyes were calm, he looked at Ye Fan for a moment, and nodded slightly.

"So I want you to enter the palace now and tell your father the evidence of Yeshu's collaboration with the enemy. "Ye Fan Dao.

"Your Highness has a plan?" asked Murong Yongci.

Ye Fan slowly approached him, a sly smile on the corner of his mouth. It's cold and makes people shiver.

"At this time, the four commanders are here..."

Murong Yongci understood what Ye Fan meant, and he smiled, "I understand." ”

Ye Fan nodded, Murong Yongci turned around and was about to leave, but Ye Fan stopped him again.

"In order to avoid following in the footsteps of King Xichang, I suggest that Dongbohou bring the trapping camp with him. "Ye Fan Dao.

Murong Yongci will know. In Beixuan, if a courtier brings troops into the palace without permission, I am afraid that it will be considered a rebellion, but Jiuchen is different.

The nobles of Jiuchen all have private armies, which is reasonable in national law. The two most famous private armies are the Donggong guards of the East Palace, and the Xichang Wangfu soldiers of the King of Xichang.

The nobles led troops into the palace, and the emperor had no right to punish them. It's just that the private army needs to stay outside the Taiji Gate, and if it goes any further, it will be regarded as a rebellion.

Private troops need a valid reason to enter the palace, and Murong Yongci is also a veteran of the court, so it is not difficult to make up a reason.

The reason why he led the troops was just to give Emperor Zhaoning a deterrent and convict Ye Shu at one time.

"How's Tong Yuan?" Ye Fan asked.

"Back to His Highness, Tong Yuan has already promised to recruit everything. The people around him replied.

"Okay, let him be honest, otherwise I'll punish him for the Nine Clans. Ye Fan said coldly.

......

In the palace, Emperor Zhaoning was discussing state affairs with the four major commanders, and the eunuch Feng Yi came in from outside to interrupt the discussion between Emperor Zhaoning and the four people.

"Your Majesty. Feng Yi was a little embarrassed and embarrassed.

"It's okay. Emperor Zhaoning raised his hand, "What's the matter?"

"Dongbo Marquis Murong Yongci brought his private army outside the Taiji Gate, claiming to meet His Majesty. Feng Yidao.

"How dare Murong Yongci bring a private army into the palace without permission!" Fan Bozhong said angrily.

"It is understandable that the private army entering the palace does not violate the law of the country. Shang Ye said coldly.

"Let him in. Emperor Zhaoning was not angry, but calm.

Murong Yongci was dressed in military uniform, and there were several henchmen and generals beside him, he slowly stepped forward and arched his hand, "See Your Majesty." ”

"Murong Yongci, why did you bring private soldiers into the palace?" Emperor Zhaoning asked.

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, and the minister is only here for the prince's business. Murong Yongci replied, "Your Majesty, the minister is just worried that if he tells the truth, he will touch the interests of the prince and be plotted against like the King of Xichang." Therefore, the minister had to bring private soldiers into the palace in order to protect himself. ”

"Dong Bohou joked. Emperor Zhaoning said, "My Jiuchen Country has strict laws, how can I allow people to play with power and wantonly kill important ministers of the court." ”

"Dongbohou has no evidence, how can he wronged the prince?" Nangong Ying snorted coldly.

"The minister has credentials. Murong Yong said, "When I go to the temple today, I will hand over this credential to Your Majesty and allow Your Majesty to judge the Holy Judgment." ”

Say. ”

"The minister has evidence to prove that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince collaborated with the enemy and treason, putting King Qi in danger, just to eradicate dissidents and seek his own selfish interests. "Murong Yong has a word," the minister has a letter from the prince who collaborated with the enemy, and he will know it at a glance. ”

"Present it. Emperor Zhaoning said to Feng Yi.

Murong Yongci took out the letter in his arms and handed it to Feng Yi, who took it and forwarded it to Emperor Zhaoning.

Emperor Zhaoning opened the letter, read the contents of the letter with a blank face, and handed the letter to Feng Yi, who in turn handed the letter to the four ministers.

Fan Bozhong, Nangong Ying, and Ju Wuba were all expressionless after reading it, and they didn't know what to say. Wei Shangye opened his mouth after reading it, "Your Majesty, there is no doubt that this handwriting is indeed the crown prince." ”

The other three looked at Shang Ye at the same time, as if they were surprised by Shang Ye's sudden speech.

Emperor Zhaoning also looked at Shang Ye, "You continue." ”

"According to the minister's investigation, the rebellion of the king of Xichang was also purely framed by the prince, and the minister has taken special measures to interrogate Tong Yuan, and he has recruited everything. Shang Ye continued without changing his face, "Tong Yuan was coerced by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to deliberately frame the King of Xichang, and the King of Xichang was wronged. ”

Murong Yongci also echoed: "Your Majesty, the crown prince once privately discussed with his ministers when he was loyal to the Yunzhonghe rebels, and wanted to put King Guang and His Royal Highness King Qi to death. It is really ...... for the prince to put the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Jiuchen Reserve at risk"

"There's been a lot of negative news about the crown prince recently..."Emperor Zhaoning said coldly.

"Your Majesty, this... Although the prince did such a thing, the minister thought that the prince had no intention of being detrimental to the emperor and the society. The crown prince is young and vigorous, and he has no sense of proportion for a while, and the minister implores His Majesty to be light. Fan Bozhong pleaded for Ye Shu.

"Your Majesty, the prince has gone too far, but the minister asks Your Majesty to spare the prince's life and hand it over to the princes to teach seriously. Nangong Ying also spoke up.

"Shang Ye, what do you think?" Emperor Zhaoning ignored the two of them, but just ran to ask Shang Ye.

Everyone's eyes were on Shang Ye, including Murong Yongxi.

Shang Ye did not change his face and stood up to salute Emperor Zhaoning, "The minister is only responsible for reporting the facts to His Majesty, as for the ruling, everything is subject to the holy judgment, and the minister does not dare to say more." ”

"Good. Emperor Zhaoning nodded, "There are all human and material evidence, as the king of a country, I must not protect the crown prince." ”

"Feng Yi. ”

"The minions are here. Feng Yi hurriedly replied.

"The prince did such a thing, which is really a great rebellion, ignoring the law of the country. , removed his position as King Gong, punished him for one year, continued to be grounded in the East Palace, and handed over to the princes for education to see the after-effects. ”

"The minions obeyed. Feng Yi nodded hurriedly.

"Although the reserve soldiers are reserves, they are also the people of the Nine Dusts. We will order a reward for them to be paid to appease the wrath. ”

"My Emperor Shengming. Everyone complimented.

Murong Yongci originally wanted to use this matter to completely overthrow the crown prince, but he didn't want Emperor Zhaoning to seem to have no intention of abolishing the prince, so he didn't have much to say, so he had to give up.

Emperor Zhaoning was suspicious by nature, and he must not let Emperor Zhaoning feel that they had a heart of forming a party for personal gain and not being subservient. It is true that bringing the private army into the palace today is a risk, but it is not completely unsuccessful. The removal of King Gong's position can be regarded as a warning lesson to the prince, and it is one step closer to the goal of abolishing the prince.

......

"Your Highness. In the Guangwang Mansion, Shui Xuan quietly slipped in and saluted Yelan.

"Why did you change your name?" Yelan quipped.

Shui Xuan scratched her ears a little embarrassed, "My subordinates were afraid of showing their feet in front of people, so I thought about changing my name." ”

"I'm kidding you, just kidding. Yelan smiled lightly, "How?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the emperor did not abolish the crown prince, but only abolished the crown prince's position as King Gong, punished him for one year, and continued to be grounded in the East Palace. ”

Shui Xuan thought that Yelan would be dissatisfied when she heard this result, but she didn't expect Yelan to have no surprised expression at all, as if everything was reasonable.

"Isn't Your Highness surprised?" Shui Xuan asked in surprise.

"Abolishing the crown prince is a big deal, the prince is not at fault, and his father will not easily move this idea. Yelan said, "If you want to get rid of Yeshu, you need to take it step by step." ”

"However, the removal of the crown prince's position as prince this time also gave the prince a dismissal. I'm afraid the prince won't be able to sit still in the East Palace. Shui Xuan said.

Yelan nodded, "You go down first." ”

"Yes, the subordinates retired. "Shui Xuan made a move.
