"Prince......" The Son of Heaven asked expressionlessly, "Why did you bring so many people to see me today?" ”

Hearing this, Liu hurriedly raised his head and looked at his father, a trace of fear and cringe flashed in his eyes.

This is an emotion that he has never had in front of his old father before.

In the past, no matter how cold the old father's attitude was, no matter how ugly the words were.

He was also fearless, because he felt that he had the truth and that he was right.

The old father's approach was all wrong!

Whether it was fighting against the Xiongnu, or levying various war taxes internally.

Even, the disposition of ministers, the application of the law.

He can always find what his old father did wrong and find a reason for his persistence.

However, now, he finds that he has long lost the reason to be strong and stubborn in front of his father.

Many, many things have been proven by facts, and perhaps the old father's decision is correct.

In particular, the incident of Yuyi and the ensuing crisis caused by the complete failure of the harvest in Guanzhong were crushed by a ration system and a steady stream of cheap squatting owls and knots from Southwest Yi.

The rationing system, with a strong Legalist color, belongs to the tyranny and harsh government of 'forcing the people' and 'oppressing the people with harsh punishments' in the hearts of many people.

The southwestern countries belong to the "chicken ribs" and "barren land" that countless scholars and doctors think in their hearts.

At that time, after Tang Meng and Sima Xiangru chiseled up the southwest Yi, I don't know how many gentlemen, heartbroken, how many scholars beat their chests and feet, and scolded the country for wasting people's fat and ointment, and going to operate and develop barren land.

Among them, there is him, the prince!

But......

At present, Liu Ju has to admit that the development and operation of the southwest region is very necessary.

Because, since the middle of last month, a steady stream of yak carts, ox carts, donkey carts, and deer carts have been flowing along the entire slope.

On average, every day, tens of thousands of stones or even hundreds of thousands of stones of squatting owls and squatting heads enter Guanzhong, and then are made into all kinds of food by Shaofuqing.

Cheap food from the southwest region was quickly put on the table of the elders in Guanzhong.

As a result, the whole wind direction changed all at once.

Countless scholars and ministers who have spoken out loudly and demanded that the country give up the southwest region, and even the key counties, Wudu counties, and Yizhou counties should be abolished, and the scholars and ministers who have withdrawn their forces from that barren land have changed their faces overnight.

The voices that once advocated abandoning the southwest region have disappeared from the field of public opinion in the blink of an eye.

In its place, there were loud shouts from countless young and radical factions.

There is no way, a place that can stably deliver millions of stone or even more cheap grain to Chang'an every year, who can ignore it? Who can despise it?

This, along with other things, has played an extremely important role in Liu Ju's recent life.

These things made him ashamed, stressed, and made him panic.

It made him completely lose his self-confidence.

Therefore, after seeing his father's cold eyes, Liu Ju's heart suddenly became stuck.

He muttered a few times before bowing his head and saying, "Erchen heard that my father recently allocated thousands of ordnance from the arsenal to Xinfeng?" ”

"Ran ......" The Son of Heaven nodded, looking at the son in front of him, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he felt that this son seemed a little strange.

But he didn't think much about it, just said according to his own thoughts: "Jin'er talked to me about the important matter of training soldiers and civilians in Xinfeng Dong, and asked for hundreds of weapons from the arsenal to be used as training ordnance for the militia......"

"I thought that hundreds of weapons were too petty!"

"Confucius said: A good man teaches the people for seven years, and he can also be both; Mencius said: If you use it without teaching the people, it is said to be a disaster to the people! ”

"So, I asked the arsenal to allocate some more armor......"

"What, the prince has a different opinion on this matter?" The Son of Heaven asked coldly, condescendingly, looking at Liu Ju.

Liu Ju choked up when he heard this.

He couldn't find the words to deal with it or to ease the atmosphere.

But deep down, anger and frustration came to my heart at the same time.

He looked up at his father, and tears flowed down his cheeks.

His temperament is already weak, and he doesn't have any strong psychological qualities.

At the beginning, there was a eunuch named Chang Rong, who relied on rumors and provocation to make him often unable to come to the stage.

But Liu Ju was framed by Chang Rong and was wronged, but he only dared to cry quietly, and he had to pretend to be very calm and complacent in front of others.

In the end, the Son of Heaven discovered Chang Rong's plan and killed the eunuch, so that he finally had a chance to breathe.

Once, Jiang Chong also designed to harm him and let him be scolded by the Son of Heaven for a long time, but he didn't distinguish either, just quietly shed tears.

And the Son of Heaven hates him the most for shedding tears!

"Cry! Cry! Cry! The Son of Heaven looked at Liu Ju, and his face turned blue instantly: "I know how to cry!" What do I want you for? ”

This sentence immediately exploded Liu Ju's already fragile heart.

He cried and kowtowed, and bowed his head and said, "The son is a capital crime!" ”

Almost with trembling hands, he untied his crown prince, put it on the ground, and sobbed and said: "The son is useless, the father is sad to work hard, and he really deserves death......

"The son is willing to abdicate and make way for the virtuous, please ask the father to choose the virtuous again, thinking that the prince is ......"

He untied the seal tied around his waist, and shook his head: "Erchen bows again......"

As soon as he said these words, the temperature of the entire Penglai Pavilion immediately fell to freezing, and even the air seemed to freeze.

Everyone was so frightened that they fell to the ground, not even daring to breathe.

In the entire Penglai Pavilion, there was only the violently undulating chest of the Son of Heaven and the sound of breathing to the extreme.

"What does the prince think, what is the Sheji Temple?" The Son of Heaven held the saber at his waist and clenched his fists tightly.

"What does the prince think, what are the people of the world?"

"If you want it, if you don't want it, you don't want it?"

"I ......" The voice of the Son of Heaven suddenly rose: "Why did you give birth to such a rebel!" ”

At this moment, in the past ten years, the dissatisfaction and disgust with this son filled his entire chest, and the anger made the emperor completely lose his mind: "The prince doesn't want to be the prince anymore? Good! I am perfect! ”

"In this world, I may not only be able to count on you!"

Deep down, the Son of Heaven felt that his heart was dead and silent.

"The prince I have cultivated for thirty-eight years, is this the prince?"

"Where do I have the face to go to see the First Emperor and the High Emperor under the Nine Springs?!"

For this innocent and loose son, he has never been so disappointed and hopeless as he is now.

"What kind of son I have born!"

"Fathers and ancestors, what evil have I done to punish me like this?"

This stupid son, can't he use his brain to think about it carefully and recall, since ancient times, which deposed prince can live after being deposed?

The first emperor abolished the prince of Su, punished all the relatives of the Su family, all over the house, and the chickens and dogs were not left!

In his hands, he fell into the well, and even Prince Su's younger brother Liu De, the king of Hejian, refused to let go, and he must watch him die to rest assured!

Even the people who Liu De has used don't use it! Strike them all!

This stupid son! It's really stupid to read!

"Your Majesty is angry...... "The crown prince Fu Shide, finally couldn't be silent anymore, he hurriedly crawled to the middle of the hall, kowtowed vigorously: "The prince lost his words, the crime of this minister, may Your Majesty condemn the crime to the minister......"

The other princes and ministers also hurriedly bowed their heads and said: "This minister and others assist in the crime of incompetence, may Your Majesty punish the crime!" ”

Even Liu Ju finally woke up to how big a basket he had stabbed!

Holding the crown prince to threaten his father?

This is naïve, irresponsible, not like a human king, and not responsible!

To say that it is unfilial piety.

The son of unfilial piety is punished by everyone.

And as the prince is not filial, not only he has to die.

None of his wives and concubines and children can escape!

Because, this is a great rebellion!

He hurriedly prostrated his head: "Erchen is a capital crime!" ”

"Capital offense?" The Son of Heaven sneered, kicked away Shi De, who wanted to hug his thigh, and stared at him coldly: "I handed over the prince to the Taifu father and son for more than 20 years, but the Taifu taught such a prince!" ”

After all, he still knew the severity, and reluctantly suppressed the anger rising in his heart, walked to the door, and ordered: "Dare to leak today's affairs, clan!" ”

"No!" Everyone was busy receiving their orders.

Liu Ju and the others in the hall were also a little more relaxed in their hearts, and they heard the Son of Heaven at the door order loudly: "Go and call both Taichang and Zongzheng!" Also, the order was sent to Zhi Jinwu, and Chang'an City will be under martial law from now on! ”

Everyone's hearts immediately fell to the bottom.

At this time, call Taichang and Zongzheng to come?

Don't you want to......

"Send someone to the East Palace to inform the queen immediately......" Shi De hurriedly lowered his voice and ordered a subordinate official behind him: "Send someone to Xinfeng ...... immediately"

Now, the Son of Heaven is already thunderous, and there are very few people in this world who can hold this angry king.

The hostess of Ganquan Palace counts as one, the hostess of Changle Palace counts as one, and there is one in Xinfeng.

Although Shi De hated and hated Xinfeng's one very much, but now, it has reached a crisis of life and death.

If something happens to the prince, he and his whole family, don't even think about running!

Up and down the house, I'm afraid I won't leave the chickens and dogs!

Since Emperor Gao, the elders of the Five Dynasties, who have been rich and noble to the present, the Shi family was overthrown in the blink of an eye.

can only go to that scourge, please go back to Chang'an to comfort the Son of Heaven.

I can only hope that he can have the same function as Naizu, and he can calm down the anger of the Son of Heaven.

However......

Everyone didn't know that the Son of Heaven was really sad this time.

He clenched his fists, supported his crumbling body, walked to a side hall of Penglai Pavilion, and sat down.

At this moment, he seemed to have lost all his spirit, and the state of the whole person suddenly became old and frightening.

There is no greater mourning than the death of the heart.

"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body......" The old eunuch hurriedly stepped forward and patted him on the chest: "The prince didn't mean to be angry with you......"

"I know ......" The Son of Heaven lowered his head and sighed leisurely: "That's why I'm sad......"

"The prince is like this, after a hundred years, how can I settle underground?"

Now, in his eyes, the prince no longer has any merits.

Almost all the shortcomings of the monarch have been exposed in the crown prince.

No opinions, no responsibility, partial listening and believing, naïve and simple, weak temperament.

"A hundred years later, I met with the generals and hussar generals, how should I tell them, how should I tell them, their evidence has become what it is now......

The old eunuch just listened quietly, like a silent wooden man, gently beating the Son of Heaven on the shoulder.

This father and son, to this point, he has seen it all.

After a long time, the old eunuch said: "Your Majesty, even if you don't look at the face of the general and the hussar general, you have to think about the eldest grandson and the great-grandson who is about to be born......"

"The fault is not on the face of the eldest grandson...... "The Son of Heaven sighed leisurely: "Last time, I had already abolished the crown prince......"

…………………………

Soon Changle Palace heard the news.

When Empress Wei heard the news, she was so frightened that she hurriedly came to Jianzhang Palace, but she was closed.

The Son of Heaven refuses to see her!

At the same time, Chang'an City was immediately blocked by the army.

In an instant, everyone turned their eyes to Jianzhang Palace, although no one knew, what happened?

But everyone knows that the forbidden army is suddenly under martial law and strictly checks all passers-by, and something terrible must have happened.

For a time, people's hearts were panicked, and all kinds of gossip and rumors spread in the neighborhood.
