Ji Ning is not scaring Qi Niang, whether he implements his plan or not, King Chong's purge of the old prince and the people of the uncle's faction is already a matter on the surface, many things can no longer be avoided, and Ji Ning can even feel that King Chong's power has begun to infiltrate the Temple of Literature.

King Chong wants to legitimize his enthronement, and he must obtain the support of the Temple of Literature, but in fact, the Temple of Literature will not interfere with who is right and who is wrong, in the logic of the Temple of Literature, whoever ascends the throne will support whom, the struggle for imperial power is a matter of the imperial court, and it has always had nothing to do with the Temple of Literature, so the Temple of Literature will not interfere too much in the affairs of the imperial power, but it is easy to be co-opted by King Chong, because the Temple of Literature also has a logic of doing things, whoever comes to give gifts, they are not refused, anyway, we don't care about political matters, don't want us to do things for you no matter how many gifts we give.

Qi Niang left, not to go back to hide, but to send the fifty beauties given to Ji Ning to a special place first, so that Ji Ning could start the selection.

Ji Ning wiped his face and muttered: "I just enjoyed the treatment of the emperor like this, can I choose a show girl, can I choose a concubine?" ”

Coupled with the five people sent by Qi Niang before, and the eight people sent by Qin Yuanyuan, Ji Ning had a total of sixty-three women on hand, and he knew that the quality of the fifty people sent later must be uneven, he had to make a selection first, and then decide which people could be included in his plan, as for the side matters, he didn't think too much about it.

……

……

In King Chong's mansion, King Chong looked indifferent, and was meeting his son, Zhao Yuanqi, who was also the son of King Chong.

Zhao Yuanqi seemed to realize that his father might rebel, and he couldn't help but come over to ask his father why he didn't go back to Jinling City, but stayed in the capital to be criticized by the world.

“…… Father, do you know that since you decided to stay in the capital, everyone in the world is saying that our people from the Chongwang Mansion are going to commit rebellion, you are a loyal minister of the Great Yong Dynasty, and even the treacherous and traitorous parties like King Hui and Uncle Li Guo were all taken down by the imperial court with your help, don't you feel worried when you hear these words, afraid that Your Majesty will doubt our loyalty? ”

Zhao Yuanqi seemed a little excited, in his mind, his father was a very noble person, and his status in his mind had reached the point of no return, no one was more noble than his father.

But in the past few months, since the people of Chongwang's Mansion entered the pilgrimage, this Chongwang has shown a different style from the usual behavior, not thinking about Mingzhe to protect himself, but thinking about how to participate in the struggle for imperial power, which is unacceptable to Zhao Yuanqi, he also talked to his father several times, but Chongwang never gave him the opportunity to negotiate, Chongwang did a lot of things, and it was completely for his son, for his family, and more importantly, for himself.

Chongwang Zhao Kangle said: "Shizi, do you know what you are talking about? No matter how the world criticizes you, as long as you can keep your heart, it is the work of a benevolent minister, is it because of the criticism of the court, you can give up the stability of the court and go back to Jinling City to live your happy life? ”

This sentence made Zhao Yuanqi feel a little comforted in his heart, at least his father did not admit in front of him that he was going to rebel, but he still didn't believe that his father didn't have this idea, and as the criticism of Chongwangfu increased from the outside world, he couldn't close his eyes and listen.

Today's Zhao Yuanqi is already very clear about the status of Chongwangfu in the Dayong Dynasty, and he also knows that it is difficult for Chongwangfu to get rid of himself, he just wants to persuade his father to return to Jinling City, but now it seems that Chongwang does not listen to him at all.

"Father, the children understand what you said about integrity, but there are some things that can not be explained by integrity, just like now in the court, even the crown prince has fallen, and the next step is to establish a prince, why do you need to get involved in this kind of thing?" Zhao Yuanqi said.

Zhao Kangle's face became even more gloomy, and said: "You don't have to take care of these things, your age is not enough to take care of these things......

"Father, at the age of the child, can't I discuss great things with you? Haven't you thought that those outsiders will really help you and not harm you? Wouldn't there be a fine work among them sent by other forces? Father believes too much in the people around him, but he doesn't know that these people are leading his father astray step by step......" Zhao Yuanqi was also a little excited in his heart, and his words were not very good, at least these words, to Zhao Kangle's ears, were simply rebellious words.

Zhao Kangle was also angry, and said: "Shizi, no matter what this king does now, you don't need to interfere, you and Huaizhu return to the capital, you can live your life with peace of mind, and you are not allowed to go outside casually, so as not to spoil this king's big business!" ”

Zhao Yuanqi also doesn't remember how long his father hasn't been angry with him, it seems that in his impression, there is no at all, because this father has always been gentle and elegant in his eyes, and he is a father who makes him feel admired.

The father's sudden gaffe made him realize that his father's previous kindness to him may have been disguised, or his father felt that there was no need to be angry with him before, but now his father is obviously no longer a calm and calm king who can do nothing to get angry, but a king who will do anything for power, and is threatening the government.

Zhao Yuanqi's face was very disappointed, and he said, "It turns out that my father is bent on achieving great things......

"Isn't there a man who doesn't want to achieve great things, thinking that everyone can be like you, and don't care about everything? In the current situation, if you don't plot, others will regard you as a thorn in the side, and the current emperor can even kill his own flesh and blood, do you think you can be safe? Hum! Shizi, you can go back, these **** are the same as Huaizhu, they can't leave the house, what's the matter, I'll let people inform you two! Zhao Kangle finished angrily and left in a hurry.

Zhao Yuanqi's whole person was blind, and his father's image collapsed in an instant, and he never thought that his father would do anything for power.

Coming out of the room, there were a few guards outside, left by Zhao Kangle, these guards were very polite, and the guards said: "Shizi, the prince asked me to protect your safety, saying that the capital is unstable these days, so let you stay in the palace......"

"Got it!" Zhao Yuanqi waved his hand, he didn't even want to speak, but like a prisoner, he was sent to the backyard by the guards.

Not far away, Zhao Yuanxuan was looking at him, and he said, "You guys retreat first, I have something to talk to the county lord, and you don't have to come over!" ”

The guard said: "As long as the prince does not leave the Chongwang Mansion, we will definitely not interfere with your daily life!" ”
