After hearing the news, Yan Tian not only did not get angry, but pointed to Li Qing, who was sweating profusely and trembling like chaff, and said:

"Mr. Li, Mr. Li, it's not like you to recognize the master, right? Could it be that my father and the emperor would trust you so much during his lifetime, not because you are a slave so smart and clever, but because you are so stupid! Oh, that's fine, it's really reassuring for such a person to use! Hahaha......"

Li Qing was even more panicked when he heard the prince's words, he trembled his lips and said with sadness:

"Prince...... The slave was the person of the first emperor before, but now that the first emperor has died, the slave has suddenly become the prince of you! But what the slave just said, there is not a word that is not the truth. How could the minions not know that this matter was too weird, but the edict of the first emperor was indeed the same, how could the minions dare to commit the great crime of deceiving the king? ”

Yan Zhan looked at Li Qing, who kowtowed to his face covered in blood, his eyebrows furrowed, and he felt that judging from Li Qing's expression at this time, what he just said did not seem to be false. But in this way, this thing is even more weird.

His second brother has been notorious since he was a child, and in addition to being good at playing and enjoying himself, he has no achievements at all; And when his father was reincarnated, he only ensured that he had no worries about food, clothing, money and food, and let him be an idle and rich son. But if everything Li Qing said now is really true, then what does the cultivation constraints he has been subject to for so many years mean? And what is the reason for the different treatment of his two brothers?

"Mr. Li...... It's not that this king doesn't believe you, it's just that he can't make sense about this matter at all! First of all, this will is just a decree, and you were the only one present in the Eternal Spirit Hall at that time, if you act in accordance with such a decree, I am afraid that it will not be in line with the rules of the ancestors and the laws of the imperial court......"

Yan Tian's words are not bad! According to the rules of the three roads in the north, if the emperor left a written will before his death, it needs to be stamped with the emperor's jade seal. In addition, although Emperor Xuande Yan Hunt died early due to illness, after all, he did not die suddenly, and before he died, he summoned several ministers with sufficient status to leave a formal decree, which was completely timely in terms of time.

Li Qing saw that Yan Tian's attitude had eased, and the look of horror on his face had temporarily eased a lot:

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true, as the slave just said, the slave was a close friend of the first emperor, and over the years, he has witnessed His Majesty's careful cultivation of the prince. Therefore, the crown prince is the king of His Majesty's preferred succession, and I think that no one in the Manchu Dynasty and the people of Youbei will raise a different opinion. And the minions are the same idea, and absolutely nothing else is born. However, I don't know if the first emperor was confused because of his illness before his death, or because of some other reason, so he was the second prince...... borrowed 10,000 dares from the minions, and did not dare to do the thing of falsely preaching the holy decree and establishing the king! I hope the prince can see it! ”

Ever since Li Qing came to the Winter Warm Pavilion, Yan Tian's entire energy had been focused on observing his expressions and reactions. Until he finished speaking, Yan Tian didn't see anything wrong. Yan Tian groaned for a while, stretched out his hand to pick up Li Qing, who was covered in blood, and pressed him on the chair with his own hands:

"How could this king not believe in Mr. Li? In fact, according to common sense, although I am the crown prince of the prison country, after all, I am also a son of man, and I should fulfill my father's last wish, and whoever of our brothers can inherit the emperor's throne should also follow my father's will. Even if my father really liked my second brother Qinghong, this king did not have any objections; However, this matter is just as this king said, it is really inconsistent with the law of the imperial court! Mr. Li, you also know, my second brother's reputation is ...... on weekdays Ay...... This king is really in a dilemma, what should be done about this matter, and I hope that Mr. Li can share the worries for this king! ”

Yan Tian's hand is extremely clever! Didn't you, Li Qingfang, keep saying that you want to be my servant of Yan Day? Well, if you want to join the gang, you have to accept a petition first. Since I am in the game in this matter, it is easy to fall into the hands of others what I do, but fortunately I will kick the ball back to you; If you, Li Qing, can solve this matter perfectly, I will send you an idle rich and noble errand in the future; If you don't do it well......

When Li Qing heard Yan Tian's words, his face suddenly became happy, and he didn't care about wiping away the blood flowing downstream, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes had an extremely flattering look, and he flattered Yan Tian:

"It's tricky and tricky, it's easy to say! Before His Majesty died, after all, only the slave was with him, which means that as long as the slave said that this edict did not exist, then no one would know about it...... What's more, as the crown prince said, as long as you are naturally on the throne, even if the slave accidentally vents his mouth in the future, no one will believe it! ”

As soon as Li Qing was halfway through his words, he noticed a fierce light flashing in Yan Tian's eyes; Immediately, he immediately changed his words, in order to minimize the possibility of Yan Tian killing himself.

"What's more, you were ordered to serve as a supervisor of the country before, which was originally a matter of the first emperor's imperial seal, and it was also a fact recognized by everyone in the world, and it was not allowed to be refuted by others at all; And the crown prince, you have just used a little means to easily destroy more than 250,000 strong enemies in Northern Yan, and your prestige among the military and people in Youbei has risen to the peak, and holding the enthronement ceremony is just a formality. With such a chance of victory, what else do you have to worry about? His Majesty died and the crown prince succeeded to the throne, is there anything wrong with this? ”

When the prince heard this, he nodded in agreement: In fact, even if the edict left by his father has spread all over the three roads of Youbei at this moment, it can only bring some small troubles to himself; For the top priority of inheriting the great unification, it will not have any impact at all. With the hand he is holding now, even if he calls a fool to play, there is absolutely no reason to 'lose money'.

And now it seems that the biggest variable brought to him by this decree is whether he can use this incident as an excuse to reasonably kill this father's henchman, Li Qing, the great eunuch of the fourth grade. As the so-called son of heaven and courtier, the head of the inner court is the closest person to the emperor after all, so no matter what Li Qing is, the position of head of the inner court will definitely be replaced.

"Mr. Li's words are really the words of the public and the country! However, at this time, after all, the king did not have an edict in hand, so how should the enthronement and the national funeral be distinguished? ”

"Prince, according to the simple view of the slaves, the matter of succession to the throne is the top priority, as the so-called king, minister, father, son, after all, you are the emperor of the people of Youbei first, and then the eldest son of the first emperor; In order to be reasonable, we should first be loyal to the affairs of the country, and then practice the filial piety of the son of man. Although it is said that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve, the heavenly family is different from ordinary people after all, so the slave thinks that as long as you can carry the burden of the first emperor on your shoulders, it can be regarded as both loyalty and filial piety. ”

The prince listened to his words, although he didn't take those songs seriously, but after all, everyone likes good words, so he is naturally so comfortable from the heart. He casually appeased Li Qing a few words, and made various promises after ascending the throne, and then ended the meeting in a happy atmosphere of the guests and hosts.

After Li Qing walked out of the door of the Winter Warm Pavilion, Yan Tian turned around and walked into the inner hall. At this time, in the inner hall of the Winter Warm Pavilion, there was a little fat man dressed as a eunuch, who was the current acting supervisor of the Imperial Horse Eunuch - Liu Zhi.

"After Sun Baishu left the palace, what abnormal behavior did Li Qingke have?"

As Li Qing said, the military and civilians of Youbei Sanlu have long accepted the 'setting' of Yan Day's succession to the emperor, and now Yan Yan has not yet held an enthronement ceremony, and this formal succession activity is meaningless at all for Liu Zhi, the acting supervisor of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

"We were short on manpower when we released a basket of carrier pigeons, and the pigeons appeared too suddenly, and in the end only four or five were stopped......

Liu Zhi replied with an expressionless face.

"Huh...... I knew that Li Qing, the old fox, was not so simple, and if an impulse really killed him today, maybe he would give birth to some moths. ”

Yan Tian kept stroking a jade ring on his hand while chatting with Liu Zhi.

"Do you want to get rid of him? What we have the ability to do is unaware of the ghost, so that he will not leave a trace of it......"

When Liu Zhi heard this, he asked with an unchanged expression.

"There's no need for that. The carrier pigeons sent out by Li Qing, whether you let go of one or ten, the result is the same. The ants are still stealing life, and it is understandable that he wants to find a way back for himself. After all, he has served my father and emperor with all his heart and soul for many years, so there is no need to do things so desperately...... Let him live another five years. ”

That's right, in Yan Tian's heart, Li Qing, like his second brother Yan Qinghong, is a person who must be eliminated. In addition to knowing more things because of Li Qing, more importantly, as soon as his father died, Li Qing was of little use to himself.

However, after all, he was the last person he saw before his father's death, and if he 'evaporated from the world' at this point in time, he would inevitably attract some verbal criticism for himself; in order to avoid incidents, it was best to wait for the limelight to pass, and then unknowingly kill him.

Of course, this is indeed not a difficult task for the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

Early in the morning, a young man came to Prime Minister Li Cheng's house to visit.

The young man was dressed in linen and filial piety, and had a red pompom on his head, which from a distance looked very conspicuous in the whiteness. As soon as this person entered the courtyard gate, he knelt down in front of the main hall door with a 'plop', and regardless of the surrounding environment, he directly pulled his neck and cried bitterly:

"I ...... Drip...... Auntie...... Your old man...... Why are you in such a hurry...... Hey......"
