Chapter 475: Empty Thoughts

When the news came, in the Yongwang Mansion, the eldest prince was drinking and discussing with a group of staff.

Suddenly, when he heard that King Ping ascended the throne of the crown prince, he was stunned, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, and he couldn't stop muttering: "Impossible, it can't be the third child, on the elder and the virtuous, this king is the eldest son, and this king is the virtuous king." ”

All the staff present were also pale, obviously also shocked by this news, at this moment, no one could answer the words of King Yong.

"Boom!" Suddenly, the eldest prince kicked over the table in front of him, took three steps and made two steps, rushed down to the main seat, and grabbed the collar of the person who came to deliver the message. Unless the father is blind, how can he not choose this king, this king is the eldest son, only this king can be the crown prince, say, say quickly, it must be this king, it must be this king, right......"

"The prince spares his life!"

"The prince is angry!"

"Lord Prudence!"

The staff present finally reflected, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull away the Yongwang who was already so angry that he couldn't restrain himself and didn't choose to speak.

"Be cautious, hahahaha......" King Yong was pulled away by everyone, but he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, like a mad demon: "Why should this king be cautious, how unfair his father is, he deceives me like this, deceives me like this, why, why...... Burst! ”

The angry King Yong suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, clutched his chest and stumbled a few times, falling to the ground.

There is chaos in the Yongwang Mansion!

………………

……

Although the Nine Emperors have been crowned kings, one is because they are not yet adults, and the other is that they have always been loved by His Majesty, so even if they are crowned kings early, they still live in the palace for a long time.

When the will came, he was greeting the queen, and after hearing it, his face turned pale in an instant, but perhaps because the queen was sitting on the top at this time, he was not like the wind and the king of Yong, and his mouth was open.

But he just lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and didn't say a word.

And the queen sitting on the top also paused obviously, glanced at the old palace maid beside her, and then slowly came back to her senses, and glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes who were standing with their heads bowed below, although they were forced to be calm, their bodies couldn't stop trembling, and they fell silent.

"Let's go down!" waved away the messenger, the queen slowly got up, and with the support of the old mother, she walked to the Nine Emperor Princes and stopped, with sadness in her eyes, but she didn't know whether this sorrow was for the Nine Emperor Princes or for her sister-in-law, King Ming.

"Alas!" In the end, he just sighed deeply, didn't say anything, and left the main hall with the old lady.

After her figure left for a long time, the Nine Emperor Princes still lowered their heads and remained motionless.

After a long time, I saw him slowly raise his head, and his face, which had not yet completely lost his childishness, was already hideous and terrifying.

But it was only for a moment, and I saw him take several deep breaths in succession, and the trembling fist in his sleeve slowly loosened, and a touch of bright red had already filled his palm.

He turned, seemed to have regained his composure, and went out as if nothing had happened, without seeing anyone.

I just went back to my room, wiped the blood from my hands, and continued to read and study,......

……

A battle for storage positions came to an end, and unsurprisingly ended with some people happy and some worried.

Regardless of whether it is popular or not, this storage position is still a matter of His Majesty's words after all, no matter how unexpected it is, no matter how unacceptable, you must close your mouth at the moment when Your Majesty breaks off the golden mouth.

The noisy battle for storage places seems to have come to an end.

Yongwang's Mansion has changed from a former gate to a crowded city in an instant, and there is no trace of the scenery of the past.

The Nine Emperors went from being a popular choice, but in the blink of an eye, they fell into the dust, and no one cared about them anymore.

Only the once most disadvantaged Pingwang Mansion has become the most dazzling existence in the capital, and the people who visit are like crossing the river, and the carriages and horses full of gifts are coming in and out, and they are full of fluffy and shining!

Pingwangfu is once powerful, carp leaping dragon gate!

Others are like fluffy phoenixes, no more expensive than chickens!

……

In the Ming Palace, after Mo Bai was silent for a long time, he finally smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed lightly.

Lu Xunyi, who had been introspective for a few days, went out again after the king of Ming informed him that the princess was pregnant, and stood in front of the king of Ming at this moment, looking at the white face, and said softly: "The three princes, regardless of position, talent, and virtue, King Ping is not the best choice, that is, when it comes to His Majesty's favor, it is not as good as King Yong and King Tai." This time he took the lead, which is quite puzzling. ”

Mo Bai looked in the direction of the forbidden city and shook his head again: "Where did he get any talent?" Although I am not close to King Yong and King Tai, I have to say that the two of them are more than enough than King Ping. ”

Mo Bai obviously has no scruples, and his words are direct.

Lu Xunyi was even more puzzled, because of this, it stands to reason that this King Ping is a character who accompanies the prince to study, and now he is accepted by His Majesty as the choice of the prince, which is really surprising: "Your Majesty's move, is there any other consideration?" ”

This time, Mo Bai didn't answer immediately, he looked in the direction of the forbidden city, his eyes flashed, and said slowly: "I hope I guessed wrong, otherwise, Your Majesty is afraid that your majesty will have to waste your efforts." ”

"Your Highness is saying?" Lu Xunyi frowned.

Mo Bai retracted his gaze towards the forbidden city, his eyes were a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, Your Majesty used the matter of the prince to clean the court, and almost all of the three princes had a share in the old ministers who were purged, so on the surface, His Majesty did not deliberately suppress anyone, nor did he deliberately promote anyone. It is impossible to see who His Majesty wants, but if you think about it from another angle, you can still see some clues, you say, among these three princes, who is the most powerful in the court? ”

When Lu Xunyi heard this, thoughts flashed in his eyes, and then he said in a deep voice: "Since the turmoil of Lichu, in the court, King Yong is the strongest, King Tai is second, and King Ping is weak. ”

"Not necessarily!" As soon as his voice fell, Mo Bai shook his head: "The boss has been an assistant for many years, and he has the deepest control over the court, this is a fact." However, because Lao Jiu is still young, he has not personally intervened in the court, but he only relies on the power of his mother family, and the limelight will not be weak. And the third child is helpless in the palace, and his mother family is far less powerful than the Qin Guogong lineage, but it is not simple to be able to fight against the boss for many years without falling. If you really want to talk about the momentum of the court, the boss is undoubtedly the strongest, but the third is definitely stronger than the ninth. ”

Speaking of this, Mo Bai glanced at Lu Xunyi: "Although the old nine mother clan is powerful, but it is precisely because his mother clan is powerful, but it is the most disadvantaged, as the monarch, how can he allow his relatives to be in power, if he allows the old nine to take the throne, then the relatives will be suppressed, in this way, what is left of the old nine in the court?" ”

Lu Xunyi was shocked, and when he heard this, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Mo Bai, and exclaimed: "Your Highness is saying that Your Majesty seems to be clear about the ministers, and the three Highnesses have a share, but in fact, it is King Yong and King Ping who suffer the most?" ”

"Not bad!" Mo Bai was extremely sure of this, and said in a deep voice: "Although Your Majesty's intentions are unpredictable, but for the three princes, Your Majesty's love and hatred are still traceable. First of all, the eldest son, who has been an assistant for many years, if he is really loved by His Majesty, how can he be the first prince who has passed away for many years, and when the king's son-in-law is nowhere to be found, His Majesty has never helped him? It can be seen from this that His Majesty is not inclined to him, but is dissatisfied with his formation of a party. ”

"Look at King Ping again, none of the literary talents and martial arts are worthy of the Tao, and there is no pattern, Your Majesty has been fighting with the Daomen for a long time, before, I also saw the third child banquet for the young talents of the Daomen, in order to win over the help, such a fool who does not know life and death, just he hooks up with the Daomen, it is enough to make His Majesty disgusted?"

At this point, there is only one person left.

Unsurprisingly, Mo Bai looked at Lu Xunyi's eyes, nodded and said: "So, when it comes to the storage position, the King of Thailand has the highest hope, first of all, he has the help of His Majesty's favorite concubine Concubine Lan, and secondly, the King of Thailand was personally taught and raised by His Majesty's side, and he is really precocious and deeply loved by His Majesty." His personality is very similar to His Majesty, the last time the king was at the birthday banquet, he gave him a slap in the face, and he completely endured it, which shows that although he is not very old, his forbearance kung fu is really not weak, and he must be appreciated by His Majesty. In this way, his hopes are naturally higher than others. The first prince has passed away for many years and will no longer redefine the crown prince, this king feels that His Majesty is actually waiting for Lao Jiu to grow up, as long as Lao Jiu does not make big mistakes in his growth, who else will he be in the position of prince? ”

With such an analysis, Lu Xunyi had to agree with Mo Bai's speculation, no matter how you look at it, the King of Thailand is the choice in His Majesty's heart.

Thinking of this, Lu Xunyi also remembered that Mo Bai gave Lao Jiuyi a slap at the birthday banquet.

Outsiders believe that the reason why Mo Bai only fights the king of Thailand is because among the three princes, only Lao Jiu is younger than him.

But now it seems that the reason why His Royal Highness beat the King of Thailand was not because of his age, but because he thought that he was the most likely successor, so His Royal Highness gave him a profound lesson and let him remember how to be a man and how to be a king.

However, having said that, even if Lu Xunyi believed Mo Bai's speculation, it was already a fact that the storage position was set for King Ping, so what was going on: "If this is the case, then Your Majesty's move doesn't make sense?" ”

Mo Bai was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "I hope I am wrong, but I am afraid that Your Majesty's choice of the third child is a superficial effort, but in fact, I have other ideas in my heart." ”

"Something else in mind?" Lu Xunyi's eyes flashed, but he said: "Even if Your Majesty really wants the King of Thailand, but now that the will is below, there are other ideas, with Your Majesty's situation, I am afraid that it will be too late, how can Your Majesty ...... Well? ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xunyi suddenly raised his head, his eyes were stunned, and he suddenly figured it out.

Mo Bai also shook his head, helpless in his heart, and sighed softly: "Your Majesty's ambition is not dead, he doesn't know that his body can no longer support it. If this time it is really just throwing bricks and jade, and wants to use King Ping as a shield and continue to clean the court, so as to pave the way for the future of the King of Thailand, then it is really hard work to be put into water. ”
