Chapter 348: The Son of Heaven's Scheming

Shen Liancheng said that the Son of Heaven was not drunk and lost his words, there was a reason. [Full text reading. 】

Among the princes, the mother family of the fourth prince is a real famous family. As soon as the four princes were born, their identities were different. When he was born, the Son of Heaven said to Concubine Jun because he liked it that when the fourth prince became an adult, he would definitely make him the prince.

Of course, these words were also passed on to Shen Liancheng by Shen Bijun, and Shen Liancheng was passed on to Chen Xiang and Shen Kuo. Probably, not too many people know anymore.

For the Shen family, they didn't want such words to spread. If such words are spread, must the four princes become the target of public criticism since childhood?

Shen Liancheng reminded Shen Bijun at that time, asking her to explain to the Son of Heaven that she was too early to talk about the dangers of establishing the prince, and in the same way, the Son of Heaven never mentioned it to others again.

At the full moon banquet of the four princes, he said such things in front of all the clan relatives and important ministers in the court, didn't he do it on purpose?

Shen Liancheng then told Chen Xiang his guess: "Perhaps, the Son of Heaven originally said such things to Concubine Jun to let our Shen family know his intentions, and let our Shen family plan for the four princes. Now, he let the entire court know that he meant this, I'm afraid it's for ......"

"Split the court." Chen Xiang took Shen Liancheng's words and lightly spit out these four words.

Four simple words, but they summed up all the unfinished words of Shen Liancheng.

In the previous situation between the DPRK and China, the bottom can be divided into the forces headed by Li Ji and the forces headed by Prince Rong Yu Wenyan. Originally, each had its own strengths and balanced each other. But after the incident of Nanzhou City, Chen Xiang's forces also joined Prince Rong's camp. This throws the two camps out of balance.

Everyone thought that in order to maintain the balance between the two camps, the Son of Heaven would weaken Chen Xiang's authority. Unexpectedly, he came up with another trick and carried out the four princes who were only full moon.

The news that the Son of Heaven intends to appoint the four princes as princes spreads, and the important ministers in the court are bound to be regrouped. The Shen family, in order to protect the four princes and grow up safely, had to form an alliance with those courtiers who supported the four princes to form a new camp.

And from now on, Chen Xiang's power may not be Prince Rong's power. He and Shen Liancheng are connected with each other, and the possibility of plotting for the Shen family is naturally greater.

"This trick of the Son of Heaven is really high." Shen Liancheng said with emotion, "Presumably, in the past few days, the threshold of our family and Taifu's Mansion is afraid that it will be trampled on." Have you figured out how to deal with it? ”

"There is no choice." Chen Xiang held Shen Liancheng's hand and looked at her with gentle eyes, "Can I still ignore the safety of the four princes?" But ......"

As he said this, he pursed his lips, as if he was a little hesitant.

Shen Liancheng looked at him sideways, his eyes full of expectation.

Chen Xiang finally thought about it, and only then did he tell her, "You may not choose the fourth prince, you will have to fall out with Prince Rong." Prince Rong, although he is dissatisfied with the Son of Heaven and has some ambitions, he is finally a generation of virtuous kings. ”

"Behind Prince Rong, especially the forces that the Xiang clan has condensed over the past few decades, they may not be in line with Prince Rong's thoughts." Shen Liancheng paused, and then said: "Of course, as far as my Shen family is concerned, just asking the four princes to grow up safely and safely is by no means as ambitious as Prince Rong. ”

"Not necessarily." Chen Xiang glanced at Shen Liancheng, and then laughed, "Even if there are no distracting thoughts now, what about a few more years?" Ten years from now, twenty years from now, what will happen? ”

Shen Liancheng lowered his head, knowing the truth well. She just dreamed that anyone in the Shen family could stay away from such an intriguing situation.

Chen Xiang knew her thoughts, so he shook her hand lightly and said with relief: "As a Ming monarch, you can make the government and the opposition, no party strife, no camp, and all take it as their responsibility for the people to live and work in peace and contentment." He sighed heavily, then added, "There will be a day." ”

Hearing this, Shen Liancheng trembled in his heart. She turned sideways slightly and said tentatively: "The current Son of Heaven is afraid that it is not the Mingjun in your mouth." When will that day come? The Son of Heaven is the time when he is young and vigorous. ”

Chen Xiang broke Shen Liancheng's body, but he only smiled, and did not answer her words, but said, "Don't think so much." With me, no matter what, I won't let your Shen family suffer. Your family is my family, and I will take good care of them. ”

A warm current arose in Shen Liancheng's heart, and there was nothing to doubt anymore. She leaned on his shoulder, feeling so lucky.

The scheming of the Son of Heaven is already known to everyone. The storm that Shen Liancheng made Qiao Meiren set off in the harem is also logically working.

Early the next morning, the palace man of Qiao Meiren, who was scolded by the head of the Inner Court Silu Temple, with a staff of twenty boards, died.

It's just that this palace man is very fond of Qiao Meiren. Hearing about last night's incident, Qiao Meiren was unrelenting, and made trouble to the Inner Court Division, and then to Mrs. Li's Jinghong Palace. got the opportunity to see the Son of Heaven, and she even cried in front of Yu Wenlie.

"Mrs. Li relied on the fact that she had a younger brother of a general who commanded the Sixth Army, and she was born in the mountains and wilderness without support, and the concubine was really aggrieved and uncomfortable. The poor little girl who served me was not yet sixteen, but she just said a few gossips that I heard from nowhere, and she was beaten to death......"

Yu Wenlie saw Qiao Meiren crying with pear blossoms and rain, and felt sorry for her, so he immediately called the head of the Inner Court Division, Si Lu Temple, and asked him to tell Qiao Meiren clearly in front of him, why he wanted to beat such a small palace person who was serving people to death.

The people of Lu Temple were afraid of provoking the fire, so they hurriedly told the story of last night.

"When the palace man Yu Hibiscus quarreled with the palace people in Mrs. Li's palace last night, he said that General Li commanded the six armies, and if he entered the palace one day, the first person to die would be Qiao Meiren. The palace people did not forgive for this and demanded that the slaves be punished. The slave considered that the palace man Yu Hibiscus's words were really out of line, which made people beat her twenty boards. Who would have thought that she would be so unbeaten......"

Yu Wenlie's mind had already been drawn by the sentence "If General Li has the heart to kill the palace one day", he didn't care at all how a little Gong'e died.

What a little Gong'e will say when she quarrels with others may not be nonsense on the spur of the moment! Perhaps, it was he who gave Li Ji too much power, which made him too proud?

He suddenly remembered the recitals on military and political changes presented by Xue Tao, the new Grand Sima of the Xia Guanfu two days ago.

Although Li Ji doesn't look like he has a heart of disobedience in any case, there are some drawbacks in handing over the powers of the six armies to him alone.

Perhaps, he should think carefully about the military and political changes proposed by Xue Tao.
