Chapter 924: The battle for the heir is white-hot
"Your Majesty!" a chamberlain in the Water Moon Palace quickly walked to the gate of the Water Moon Palace, shouting loudly, "The fourth prince asks to see!"
After he shouted, there was no response from inside, so he had to cast a look of help to the head of the squad at the door, and the leader of the squad looked embarrassed, and he turned his head to the chief of the guard on the side to cast an inquiring look.
But the head of the guard did not squint, his face was cold, and the leader of the squad reluctantly whispered to the chamberlain: "Your Majesty only fell asleep this morning...... At this time, don't say it's the Fourth Highness, even if the Heavenly King Laozi comes, he won't see it!"
This chamberlain secretly cursed in his heart: Yin Shi, who was playing in Concubine Ming's Shuiyue Palace, only slept for a moment?! In another hour, it should have been early in the morning!
But although this chamberlain scolded bitterly in his heart, his face did not show the slightest look, he had no choice but to retreat, and trotted all the way to the fourth prince Zhao Liexian, who was kneeling outside the Shuiyue Palace, and whispered: "Fourth Highness, Your Majesty is resting, and you haven't gotten up early yet......"
"Get up early?" Zhao Liexian couldn't help but say angrily, "What time is this?The sun is all drying your ass!It must be you bastard bastards who are deliberately obstructing it!Yes and no!!"
As he spoke, Zhao Lie grabbed the waiter's ear first, causing him to scream.
The chamberlain wept and wailed: "Fourth Highness, even if the slave maid eats the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, she will not dare!
Zhao Lie pushed him away first, and said angrily: "Then get out of the way, Lao Tzu will go in!"
As soon as he moved, the royal forest guards in front of the palace immediately stretched out their hands to stop him, and the head of the guard said respectfully: "Your Highness, you are not allowed to enter the palace without the emperor's order!"
Zhao Lie said angrily: "Get out! Lao Tzu wants to see his father, and you dare to stop him?!"
This guard commander is none other than the guard commander who wanted to take Li Chengfeng on his back before, but was forced back by Zhao Feiyue, although the whole thing was not found out later, so he was demoted three levels in a row, but he finally kept his position.
It is precisely because of this that the commander of the guards is particularly serious at this time, and he knows that if he angers His Majesty again, then he will be considered the end of his official errand.
Although with his family background and conditions, he is not an official who has enjoyed endless glory and wealth in this life.
But who is not a little self-motivated to sit in this position? Who can afford to be taken down in such humiliation?
Although the rivers and lakes are big, people are terrifying!
The commander of the guards stared at Zhao Liexian seriously and said, "Fourth Highness, you are offended!
At this time, behind him, the left and right royal forest guards crossed the long knives in their hands at the same time, although they were not unsheathed, but the power came to their faces, with a strong deterrent effect.
Zhao Lie stared at him deeply, took a step back, he turned his head and grabbed the previous chamberlain, quietly stuffed a silver ticket in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Who is on duty in the palace today?"
The waiter pinched the silver ticket, felt the thickness and knew that it was a silver ticket of five hundred taels, he immediately felt that the root of his ear didn't hurt much, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face: "It's Gonggong Huang on duty today......
Zhao Lie first whispered in his ear: "You go and report again, tell Gonggong Huang that this king has 100,000 urgent things to report to his father, and if he delays the matter, the king of heaven will not be able to protect him!"
The chamberlain's face suddenly froze, and his expression was embarrassed, and at this time, Zhao Lie first said: "If he reports to his father in time, this king will be grateful afterwards!"
The chamberlain thought for a while, gritted his teeth, nodded, and said, "Your Royal Highness, please wait a while, and let the slave maid report again!"
The chamberlain walked away quickly, and Zhao Liexian stood in front of the hall, his eyes wandered, looking around, although he stood upright, looking calm and relaxed, but his clenched fists and white fingers all showed his inner anxiety and impatience.
He knew that he had to meet the emperor before the crown prince so that he could strike first!
But as the saying goes, whatever you are afraid of comes!
It didn't take long for Zhao Liexian to hear something he definitely didn't want to hear at this time: "The prince has arrived!"
The crown prince was in charge of the country at this time, and he was the biggest under the emperor, and as soon as he came, everyone here knelt down, even the fourth prince Zhao Liexian had to kneel.
But he only knelt down symbolically, waiting for the prince to calm him down, after all, this was the etiquette of their brothers when they met in the old days.
But this time, when he subconsciously knelt down, he found that the prince did not stop him, but was silent.
At this time, the four princes had to complete the etiquette, bow their heads and kneel, and not wait for the prince to say flat, he couldn't get up, this is called etiquette, and the violators will be attacked by the imperial history, and the mouth and pen will be cut down to the end!
Daqi attaches the most importance to etiquette and filial piety, as the four princes who are interested in competing for the throne, if they take the lead in not abiding by the etiquette law, they will basically withdraw from the competition for the throne.
After all, in any kind of game or competition, if the participant does not abide by the rules of the game, then what awaits him will definitely be out!
Unless he himself is a participant and a rule-maker.
Zhao Lie lowered his head and waited for a while, but saw that the prince still didn't make a sound, and only the pair of Denglong Cloud Shadow Boots stood motionless in front of him.
Although he didn't say a word, Zhao Liexian felt extremely terrible pressure!
After enduring this for a while, Zhao Lie raised his head first, stood up with a smile, and said, "It's a coincidence today, I didn't expect to meet the third brother here, father ......."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Hanqing stared at him with extremely gloomy eyes, and his voice was even deeper and angry: "Who told you to get up?"
Zhao Liexian's face stiffened, and he reluctantly smiled: "Third brother, what's the matter, such a big temper, this is ......"
Zhao Hanqing interrupted his words in an extremely rare way, ignoring the eyes of everyone around, he scolded sharply: "Who told you to get up!!"
Zhao Liexian finally couldn't hold back, his face sank, and he said: "Third brother, how can I say it, I am also the prince and prince, and the royal dignity is decent, how can it be a matter of will?"
Zhao Hanqing gritted his teeth and laughed angrily: "Oh? You still know the royal decency? It seems that you still have a trace of shame in your heart?"
Zhao Lie said coldly: "What is the third brother talking about, the younger brother can't understand!"
Zhao Hanqing gritted his teeth and said, "What did you do, don't you count it in your heart?"
Zhao Liexian sneered: "I've seen too many things that my brother has done, if my brother doesn't say it, how can my brother know?"
Zhao Hanqing was furious, he took a step closer, and his usually quiet and gentle face became murderous at this time: "The people of Taiyang are innocent! You have done such a thing that people and gods are angry and exterminate human nature, do you want to isolate yourself from the Great Qi and the world!"
Zhao Liexian also said angrily: "Brother, you must pay attention to your words! Even if you are the prince of the prison country, you can't spew blood!"
Zhao Hanqing said angrily: "What? Don't you dare to do it? Haven't you always been the most proud of yourself for having but being ambitious?
Zhao Liexian calmed down at this time, he stared at Zhao Hanqing, took a deep breath, and said categorically: "Third brother, I, Zhao Hanqing, am a big husband who stands up to the sky, and what I do is absolutely selfless and malicious! Some things are done by me, I will never deny it, some things are not done by me, and I don't want to detain this basin to my head!"
Zhao Hanqing was furious: "You!!You are incorruptible and shameless, unreasonable!"
When the two of them were facing each other with their noses on top of their noses, a shout suddenly came from the palace: "Your Majesty summons the crown prince and the four princes to meet you!"
The eunuchs, palace maids and guards around them all breathed a sigh of relief, the sparkling confrontation just now really made them creepy, lest they be swept into it and affect the pond fish!
But when they watched the two brothers enter the Water Moon Palace without looking at anyone anymore, they all knew that this time it was officially announced that the crown prince and the four princes had torn their faces!
Next, the battle for succession will enter the most brutal white-hot stage!
