The next morning, King Rui got up early and went to the court, and he didn't go to the court for several days to deal with the affairs of the Netherworld Pavilion, if it weren't for King Huai and King Hui to pass the news of the court to him, those villains didn't know how to take the opportunity to make trouble.

When King Rui came to the court in a wheelchair, King Xiang and King Ding couldn't help but roll their eyes, if there is anything that can make King Xiang and King Ding stand on the same line, it is to deal with King Rui.

King Rui in the minds of their father, the status is transcendent, King Rui has not been to the court for so many days, and his father has not said anything, but sent Zhang Qing to visit the mansion, if it is not for the palace of King Rui, there is a medical saint living in it, I am afraid that the people in the entire imperial hospital will send me to the palace of King Rui.

But what about them? If you can't get out of bed if you are not sick, then you must come to the court.

"Yo, Brother Rui, I haven't seen you for a few days, I have lost a lot of weight looking at you, now that Princess Rui is pregnant, and there is no side concubine in your house, isn't it going to be happy with Princess Rui on your back?" King Xiang sneered.

"Brother Xiangwang, how can you say that about the fifth brother, the fifth brother is unwell and recuperating in the house." King Huai was not angry.

"Hey, recuperate at home? Yesterday the people of my house watched his carriage come back from outside the city. King Ding snorted coldly.

"Brother Dingwang, this king is not a human criminal, even if he goes out for a walk, it seems that there is no need to report to you." Rui Wang said coldly.

If it weren't for the fact that he was in a wheelchair and his momentum had decreased slightly, it would have been enough to deter King Ding.

"Then you don't have to report to me, but you are out of the city, but you say that you are not feeling well and need to recuperate, isn't this a bully?" King Ding raised his hands into fists to the upper right and said.

"There is a hot spring in the king's courtyard outside the city, Yun Zheng gave me a medicinal bath, the effect of soaking in the hot spring is better, if Brother Dingwang also wants to run the hot spring, the king's courtyard is welcome at any time." Rui Wang said lightly.

"You ......" King Ding was speechless for a while, this King Rui obviously had already thought of his rhetoric, King Rui has been the best of all his brothers since he was a child, his father has not set up a prince for so many years, I am afraid that he still wants to pass the throne to King Rui.

This kind of thing must not happen, if the war at the border pass cannot be suppressed by others, it is impossible for him to go to the battlefield in his current situation, if he spends King Huai at this time, he will have one less help in Kyoto, it seems that it is time for the other side to speed up.

"The emperor drove to the ......" With the singing of a eunuch, the emperor walked into the main hall in a hurry, and all the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

The emperor stepped up to the high place, turned around and sat on the dragon chair made of gold, and then said slowly: "Zhongqing is flat." ”

"Your Majesty." The ministers spoke in unison again.

The emperor's eyes fell on the first position on the left, and when he saw King Rui in a wheelchair, his face was full of fatherly love, "Yi'er, is your body better?" ”

"Thank you for my father's concern, my son's retainer is no longer in the way." Rui Wang said lightly.

"It's okay, you have to pay more attention to your body in the future, don't work too hard, you just let them do the things in the barracks, you don't have to do everything yourself." The Emperor said softly.

"Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries, as a prince, the son should lead by example, there is no need for other civilian officials in the army, if the generals are left alone, then the soldiers below will become scattered soldiers." Rui Wang said lightly.

"Yes, father, the reputation of Brother Rui in the army is very high, I am afraid that the generals in the army now, I am afraid that I only know King Rui and do not recognize others." King Ding raised his eyebrows slightly.

This is a heart-wrenching statement, this is not a bend to tell the emperor, your most beloved son, now has a very high reputation in the army, and the people in the army only know King Rui, not the emperor, and in a few days, I am afraid that the whole world will be King Rui's.

Since ancient times, emperors, even if they have a particularly beloved son, will not condone him to have such a prestige, the so-called meritorious master, no emperor allows someone to step on his head.

"Father, fifth brother is not such a person, don't misunderstand." King Huai hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Brother Huai Wang, this is not something you have with red mouth and white teeth saying no." King Xiang did not forget to step on the road.

He didn't dare to provoke King Rui, but if King Huai and King Hui were born, he still dared to bully, after all, he was a concubine, King Huai had long lost his mother, and now he was just a dependent on King Rui to survive, and King Hui didn't mention it, although he married the princess of the Wuhuan clan, it was just to solve the problem for King Rui.

"Brother Xiangwang, you ......" King Huai was angry, where is there any brotherhood between King Xiang and King Ding, they think about how to ascend to that position every day and trample everyone under their feet.

"Lao Jiu, don't worry, I believe in Yi'er, Yi'er has been famous in the army for so many years, and he relied on his own strength to obtain it, besides, if he didn't have him, the god of war, in Da Zhou, wouldn't those little ones have come to invade my Da Zhou a long time ago?" The Emperor smiled lightly.

As soon as these words came out, King Ding and King Xiang were simply slapped in the face, and their father did not misunderstand King Rui because of their provocation, but was full of trust. It's all about being a son, and the difference is really not half a star.

When King Huai heard the emperor say this, the big stone in his heart finally fell, how could the king have allowed others to snore on his pillow since ancient times, and King Xiang and King Ding were so instigated that it was really vicious.

"Thank you, father." King Huai kowtowed heavily to the emperor.

"Well, you and the sixth child can get along with Yi'er so well, I am very pleased, you must continue to help Yi'er well in the future." The emperor said lightly.

"Yes, the son-in-law will definitely live up to his father's expectations, and he will definitely be a good helper for the fifth brother." King Huai said with a smile.

"Well, you get up." The emperor said lightly.

"Thank you, father." King Huai stood up and said.

Hmph, sycophant, my father is partial to Brother Rui, even if you don't plead, it won't be anything.

Just when King Ding was slandering, he heard the emperor say angrily: "King Xiang, King Ding, you two are brothers with them, if you don't help, you just have to step on it, is this what you should do as a brother?" ”

"Father, the son knows his mistakes." King Ding and King Xiang hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Hmph, brother and brother, do you understand what these four words mean? As a brother, if you don't know how to love your brothers, you know how to fight back and forth, if this country is handed over to you, you don't know what it will become. The Emperor said angrily.

Hearing this, everyone's minds are different, the emperor said so, is that planning to establish a prince? It seems that the candidates for this prince are in King Ding and King Xiang.

Also, among the many princes of the emperor now, only a few who remain in Kyoto have the capital to compete for the crown prince.

It turns out that you don't have to guess to know that the position is for King Rui, but now that King Rui's legs have been crippled for so many years, you can't let people from other countries laugh at the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty as a cripple.

King Huai does not have the power of his mother's family, and the power of Huiwang's mother clan is not strong, not to mention, he also married the princess of the Wuhuan clan as his wife, the emperor

It will not give people with foreign blood a chance to inherit that position, not to mention, King Hui's face......

At present, it seems that King Xiang and King Ding are the most promising for King Ding, the daughter of the Xiao family is the side concubine of King Ding, and there is also the power of Prime Minister Lin and the Lin family in the army, which is much stronger than that King Xiang of straw bales.

The ministers speculated in their hearts about the emperor's intentions, if they really wanted to set up a prince, then they would have to choose to stand in line.

"Well, if there is nothing to do, then retreat." The emperor looked at the ministers standing in the main hall.

"Congratulations to the emperor." The ministers knelt down again and saluted.

After the emperor left, some people in the hall began to talk about the choice of the crown prince.

"Lin Xiang, the emperor's words, but he has already decided to make a prince?" Tobe Shangshu said flatteringly.

"Lord Yan, it's not easy to talk nonsense, the emperor's intentions are not easy to speculate on as a courtier." Lin Xiang said with a look of secrecy.

"Yes."

Lin Xiang stepped out of the main hall, and King Huai also pushed King Rui out of the main hall, came to the carriage outside the hall, and said angrily: "Fifth brother, you said that this father and emperor will not really choose the prince between them." ”

"Ninth brother, this country belongs to the people of the world, whoever the father chooses to be the prince is for the future of the Great Zhou, and we can only obey as sons." Rui Wang said lightly.

"But, fifth brother, if you choose the prince, Lao Jiu will naturally support you, but if you let one of the two of them become the prince, then the future of this Da Zhou ......"

"Ninth brother, don't you want to listen to my words? Don't say it, I'll punish you to go back and copy the Eight Array Diagram ten times. After speaking, King Rui got into the carriage with light skills.

Mo Feng glanced at the dejected King Huai, "His Royal Highness King Huai, our lord is also for your good, this sacred heart is unpredictable, you don't want to be involved in it because of this." After finishing speaking, Mo Feng also got into the carriage and drove the carriage towards the outside of the palace.

King Ding and King Xiang did not go back to the house directly, but went to the harem and told their biological mother the good news.

Although the Xiao family and the Lin family are now the help of King Ding, Queen Xiao has attracted a group of courtiers to be the help of King Xiang, and now the forces of these two parties are gradually closing the distance and working hard for the last fight.

In the Yaohua Palace, the concubine was leaning on the concubine couch, asking the palace maid to beat her legs, and when she heard the footsteps, she immediately sat up.

"The son greets his mother." Ding Dynasty bowed like a concubine.

"Hurry up, look at you like this, is there anything good?" Ru Guifei smiled lightly.

"It's good news, my father said in the court today that he is going to make a prince." King Ding said with a smile.

Hearing this, Ruguifei glanced at King Ding, she is a stupid son, the emperor is ready to set up a prince, what is he happy about, before the palace change, their mother and son almost lost their heads, if it wasn't for Lin Xiang's mediation, where would they still have a good life now.

The emperor proposed to set up a prince at this time, even if they had some helpers, but the odds of victory on King Xiang's side were not small. Besides, there is also the emperor's favorite son.

"You kid, the emperor has set up the crown prince, King Xiang and King Rui are all fierce rivals, let's settle down a little now, lest even the current wealth be lost." Ru Guifei said lightly.

Now she has a lot of peace in the harem, thinking that in the future, her son will not be able to ascend the throne, so she will follow her son to the fiefdom, it is better than staying in this palace and being bullied.
