Chapter 566: Calculation (2)

Sure enough, he was very clever enough to see through the clever layout of this matter so quickly.

Gu Xinian felt a sense of pride in his heart, and leaned over and kissed her face: "If you think of anything, you might as well say it to me." ”

Ye Qinglan's eyes fluttered, and she smiled: "The crown prince's overseer army is losing one after another, and as soon as the third prince is replaced, there are frequent successes. As long as you are suspicious and think about it, you will naturally guess that it is the ghost of the third prince. As a prince, he disregarded the safety of the country and society for his own selfish interests, even if the emperor trusted him again, he would be chilled by his actions. As a father who loves his son, he may be reluctant to expose this matter and punish his son. But as a wise king, he would never let such a vicious prince inherit the throne. The three princes seemed to win this game proudly, but in fact, they had lost their sacred heart. It's ridiculous that the third prince is shrewd, but he doesn't know that he has taken the initiative to step into this game. ”

This bureau is very cleverly set up, and it takes advantage of the trend to invite you into the urn. The best thing is that the three princes are still immersed in their spring breeze. I didn't notice the murderous opportunity hidden under this scenery at all.

Ye Qinglan told the story eloquently, and actually gave a clear glimpse of the situation jointly set up by Gu Xinian and General Shen.

Gu Xinian looked at Ye Qinglan approvingly: "It's so smart, it's worthy of being my Gu Xinian's wife!" ”

Ye Qinglan glanced at him with a smile: "Are you praising me, or are you praising yourself." ”

Gu Xinian smiled lowly, and climbed onto her soft chest with a pair of hands that were not serious: "Of course I praised you." Being able to marry a wife like you, who is extremely smart, is a blessing that I have only earned after several lifetimes of cultivation......"

Ye Qinglan smiled and spat him, and the little couple's flesh was numb and crooked for a while. I got back to business.

"It's also because I've heard some of the inside stories from you that I can get a glimpse of this game." Ye Qinglan's face did not change and slapped away Gu Xinian's bad hand. Continue to use his brain: "No one else knows anything. Take the crown prince, for example, in case he can't hold his breath. If you make any inappropriate moves, or fight with the three princes, the emperor will be distracted, and I am afraid that he will ignore the abnormality of this matter......"

"Therefore, it is best for the prince to do nothing, just listen to the emperor's words honestly and cultivate himself in the palace. In this way, the spring breeze of the three princes can be brought out more. can also make the emperor suspicious. Gu Xinian replied lightly, his expression was very serious, but his movements were very lewd. The nimble hand had reached into the hem of her garment, and I didn't know where it had squeezed. caused Ye Qinglan to gasp lightly, her pretty face suddenly turned red, and she glared at him with disgust.

Gu Xinian moved his hand away from the kindness, grabbed the other side, and rubbed it on the soft and sensitive top.

Ye Qinglan blushed and grabbed his hand: "Don't mess around, we're talking about business."

Gu Xinian smiled lowly, took her into his arms and kissed her deeply. At this time, what is more important than the love of husband and wife?

The prince listened to Gu Xinian's words, and sure enough, he stayed in the prince's mansion honestly. Reading every day, having nothing to do with his wife and concubines, as long as he doesn't think about how proud the third prince is now, life is not difficult.

Everyone is paying close attention to every move in the court. The three princes are now rising and the boat is very beautiful. Everywhere he went, he was hugged from front to back, and in just one month, the party members grew a lot. There is already a faint posture to overpower the prince. There are a few bold ones, who have begun to write in the recital, "The prince is mediocre and incompetent, and he should be renamed the prince" and the like. These twists and turns. Of course, they are all waystones thrown by the three princes, and they want to see the emperor's reaction.

I didn't expect it. After the fold was submitted, there was no reaction at all. It's like a drop of water falling into the water, and there is no ripple. The emperor treated the three princes as before, but he never mentioned the matter of changing the crown prince.

Such a reaction also made the people of the Three Princes' faction unable to make up their minds. Whether to take advantage of such an opportunity to continue the pursuit with all one go, or whether to stop at the right time and wait and see what happens, everyone has different opinions and cannot hold on to each other. simply pushed this problem to the third prince.

The third prince has been too smooth recently, and his previous caution was finally defeated by **, who was eager to become the crown prince as soon as possible, and made an absolutely wrong decision. At his suggestion, several important ministers of the Three Princes' faction began to play one by one, asking the emperor to change the crown prince. Among them, there is Zheng Yun, the uncle of the third prince.

Everyone was full of confidence, but they didn't expect to usher in the emperor's unprecedented anger.

With a "snap", a bunch of high folds were thrown to the ground. The emperor's face was unprecedentedly gloomy and ugly.

Several ministers were stunned at first, and then they knelt down in unison.

"The prince is mediocre and incompetent, has no talent and no virtue, and is unworthy of the position of prince. The virtuous prince should be renamed as the crown prince, which is the blessing of the people and the blessing of the court! The emperor's voice was cold and full of anger: "This is the melody written by you who rely on the important ministers of the court!" I think it's strange, the crown prince has been the prince since he was ten years old, and although he has not made any outstanding contributions in the past ten years, he has never made obvious mistakes. With such a few fluttering words, you want me to abolish the prince. In the end, it is for the sake of the society and the country, or is it a vain attempt to shake the foundation of the stability of the imperial court under the banner of serving the people and the court! ”

The last sentence, mixed with the anger of the Son of Heaven, stabbed at everyone's chest like a sharp blade.

Several ministers kneeling on the ground secretly said in their hearts that it was not good, and they didn't even dare to defend themselves, and kowtowed one by one to ask for guilt. At such a juncture, if you are not careful, it is okay to lose your official position, and you are most afraid that it will affect your family. The emperor was reluctant to do anything to his son, and he had no such scruples about the ministers

Thinking of this, everyone regretted it. Now the people kneeling here are the backbone of the Three Princes' faction, and the youngest official is also a member of the Three Ranks. originally thought that it would be a matter of course to ask for the crown prince to be replaced, but who would have thought that the emperor would be furious.

Hasn't the emperor always been very indifferent to the crown prince, but he loves the third prince very much? Recently, because of the smooth war at the border pass, he often praised the three princes in the court. Everyone naturally thought that this was the emperor's intention to build momentum for the three princes, but they never thought that they would mistakenly express their feelings, and it reached such an embarrassing point

The emperor is not happy and angry on weekdays, even if he reprimands the prince, that is, he says a few words coldly. His face was so full of anger at this moment that it was almost unprecedented. Because of this, everyone was extremely afraid.

The emperor lost his temper, and his anger was finally curbed a little. The cold gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and warned in a deep voice: "You are all important ministers of the court, for the sake of your daily conscientious and diligent work, I will not pursue it this time." However, the matter of changing the crown prince is not allowed to be mentioned again. ”

Everyone was scolded and disgraced, kowtowed and thanked them one by one, and then honestly got up and walked out of the imperial study. After walking out of the emperor's sight, everyone dared to raise their heads, looked at each other's ugly faces, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There are some things that need not be spoken, and everyone knows them.

Whatever the reason, in short, this operation was a complete failure. Not only that, but it also annoyed the emperor. In the short term, there will be no more mention of the abolition of the crown prince. I really don't know which link went wrong, and it was so embarrassing

The emperor summoned several important ministers of the imperial court in the imperial study, and the news of his anger spread far and wide, and soon reached the ears of the third prince and Zheng Guifei.

The third prince specially waited in the palace, originally wanting to wait for good news, but unexpectedly waited for such bad news. At that time, my brain buzzed, and I almost fainted.

Concubine Zheng Guifei's face also changed, and she hurriedly hugged the third prince: "Zhang'er, don't worry, wait for me to ask carefully what is going on." Your father has always loved you, and will never treat you like this. ”

The third prince stood up straight and looked at the little eunuch who came to report the news.

The little eunuch was Xiao Anzi, who was serving tea in the imperial study, and he secretly recognized the chief eunuch beside Zheng Guifei as his godfather, and quietly passed the news for the three princes of Zheng Guifei on weekdays. Today's big event, naturally, I don't dare to slack off, and I hurriedly came to report it.

Concubine Zheng asked eagerly: "Xiao Anzi, what is going on with this qiē, you know everything you know, and you are not allowed to hide half a word." ”

Xiao Anzi really didn't have the courage to hide it, and he said again what he saw and heard: "After the emperor saw the folds, his face was very ugly. A person stayed in the imperial study for a long time, and the minions were not allowed to go in and disturb him. After about half a day, he announced that several adults would enter the palace to meet him. The servant was able to stand aside because he was serving tea, so he listened carefully. The emperor was very angry and reprimanded several adults fiercely. He also said that the matter of changing the crown prince will not be mentioned again from now on."

Concubine Zheng's body also shook, and her face was as white as paper.

How so? How could this be?!

After working hard for so long, I thought that I could rely on the support of the Holy Family and everyone to snatch the crown prince. But why did the emperor react like this?

The third prince took a deep breath and said to Xiao Anzi: "Okay, you came to report the news, it is your loyalty." This king will never treat you badly in the future, you go back to the imperial study to serve first. lest my father be angry, if he notices that you are here to report the news, I am afraid that even I will not be able to protect you. ”

Xiao Anzi was also worried in his heart, and immediately responded when he heard the words, and after retiring, he retreated.

Leaving Zheng Guifei and the third prince, both pale and ugly.

Zheng Guifei's mind was chaotic, and she subconsciously muttered to herself: "What the hell is going on!" Your father has always loved you the most, even if he refuses to make you the crown prince for the time being, he shouldn't be so angry."

The third prince was so confused that he didn't know what to say for a while. (To be continued......)
