5. [005] To fight for power, you must first find allies

But the expectations are too high, and it is inevitable that it will backfire, and Prince Chen does not seem to be as good as expected, and even has sexual orientation problems, which is greatly beyond the scope of Emperor Yonghe. Contradictions began to appear between father and son, unfamiliar, Emperor Yonghe even had the heart of abolishing the prince several times, but Prince Chen always showed indifference, if it weren't for Concubine An's kind words, I'm afraid it would have become a fact.

Concubine An is the favorite concubine of Emperor Yonghe, her name is Anran, she was born poor, but she has the appearance of captivating the country and the city, she is the concubine appointed by Emperor Yonghe.

Mu Chen felt that he should start working hard, it didn't matter if she abolished the prince, she didn't have an identity, but the terrible thing was that if the position of the prince fell into the hands of the second prince, Concubine Hua and the others would gain power, and they would definitely take her life on a charge, so as to prevent future troubles, and at that time her life would be gone, and what to talk about eating, drinking, and playing in the world.

She is now just a nominal prince, there are only four palace maids around her who are responsible for living and eating, Xiaoyu is the manager, Xiaohuan, Xiaoling, and Xiaocui are all new maidservants to the palace, and the visual inspection is still pure, although it is not clear whether they will be truly loyal to themselves, but at this moment she will not be stingy with good words: "Now there are only four of you around me, and there is no suspicion of using people, from now on we are a family, if he is in charge of the country, he will never let you wait for hell." ”

"The slave swears to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the death." The four of them knelt down in front of Mu Chen, and they also looked forward to the day when the prince would ascend to the throne, the master would gain power, and only those who could be slaves would straighten their waists in the harem, and wouldn't it be the same for those who trembled and begged for a lifetime?

Mu Chen nodded with satisfaction, but where to start? If you want to fight for power, you must first see if you have allies. The serious appearance suddenly turned into a hippie smile: "This king is going to start working hard now, think about it, which minister in the court is the friendliest with this king?" ”

How do the newcomers understand, or Xiaoyu is the most clever: "His Royal Highness the Prince, forgive the slave maid bluntly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no friends, except for studying with the emperor master Wuyanzi since he was a child, he basically has no contact with outsiders, but even the emperor has not met for a long time." ”

"Okay, then the king will see the emperor first." Sitting down and acting, Mu Chen immediately asked Xiao Cui to invite the emperor into the palace.

Soapberry then entered the palace to meet him, accompanied by a young man.

He is about half a hundred years old, a little vicissitudes, but his body is still good, he is the prime minister of the dynasty, he looked at the prince who has grown up in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's been four years, the prince has grown up." ”

has only gotten along with this old man since he was a child, and he has to hide the truth about his gender, no wonder the prince's character is withdrawn and grotesque.

Since the beginning of the twelve-year-old concubine incident, the prince Chen began to be silent, behaved strangely, did not receive anyone, and lost his temper at every turn, for which a lot of rumors of right and wrong were circulated, and the atmosphere of the entire East Palace also fell into darkness, many things have been explained clearly, and many palace maids have died in the open and in secret, so except for the new palace maids, no one dares to go to the East Palace to do things.

Xiaoyu reported these things to Mu Chen in private, of course, she didn't dare to say it in front of the other three, lest they feel uneasy.

Xiaoyu still clearly remembers that the prince was still in front of the emperor at that time, calling soapberry a stinky old man, but in fact, soapberry was not old at that time.

Both inside and outside the palace believe that the root cause of all this is because the prince has entered a rebellious period, time is in a hurry, and now the prince is almost sixteen in the blink of an eye.
