Chapter 739: It's Okay, I'll Go First
Although King Ding is the eldest son of the emperor, he is not the crown prince after all.
Theoretically, he is in the same position as the kings.
At best, it's more noble.
But it's not a relationship between a monarch and a minister.
Therefore, many royal princes turned over and dismounted, walked to King Ding's side, and saluted with their hands.
King Ding didn't dare to take it big, and returned the salute solemnly, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Uncle Wang, Brother Wang, Brother Wang, I don't know which gust of wind will bring everyone out together." ”
The highest status in this is, of course, Prince Chengzhong, although there are four honest people, but he can't stand him as the third brother of Emperor Xiaode.
But the one who can enliven the atmosphere the most is King Su.
King Su is the son of the seventeenth brother Prince Guozhong, Prince Guozhong died young, King Su inherited the prince at the age of fifteen, he is humorous, and his reputation in the royal family is extremely loud.
So he smiled and said: "Brother Dingwang should be polite, I also heard that something happened here, so I rushed over, I didn't expect the incident to be over, presumably it was Brother Dingwang who calmed down, right?"
When King Ding heard this, the smile on his face became closer and closer, and he said with a smile: "Where is King Su, I also arrived a little earlier than everyone, but it was a matter that King Zhi calmed down, but there was an accident, and I was about to order the people below to deal with this matter." ”
"I see, hahaha......"
The two looked at each other and smiled......
"Hey, how can His Royal Highness have blood on his body, how can the people below protect him?"
King Su turned his head and saw King Zhi, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Brother Zhiwang, what's wrong?"
"Brother Zhiwang, why do you look like this......"
"Brother Wang, who has insulted you so far?"
Immediately, seven or eight dragon sons and grandsons stepped forward and asked with concern.
Most of them are die-hard supporters of the system of eldest son inheritance in Confucian etiquette......
After all, King Nao is the eldest son and grandson of Emperor Taishang.
This scene made King Ding, who was watching coldly, twitch the corners of his eyes slightly.
However, after all, the city was very deep, so he immediately regained his smile and said to King Su: "King Su, you came just in time, you came just in time." This accident is what I want to introduce to you......"
As he spoke, he briefly talked about the conflict in front of him.
On the other hand, Naowang is also complaining to a group of Wang brothers and brothers around him about Lin Zhao's outrageous bullying behavior, as well as someone's tendency to protect and inaction......
For a while, there were some emotions in the crowd, and there were a few people who looked at Lin Zhao with extremely unkind eyes, and their eyes were sharp......
Behind Lin Zhao, many people looked at him with some concern.
Especially Chen Ying, the son of Taining Hou Shizi, who made trouble.
After all, drinking together and drinking out of feelings.
Lin Zhao did not take any stance on their fight incident though.
But it puts the matter on the poisoned arrow incident, essentially turning them into victims.
This is also an act of righteousness.
Chen Ying and the others never thought that their impulsiveness would attract so many dragon sons and grandsons.
I didn't expect these people to be so curious.
But they pay attention to something, after all, they represent the decency of the Great Zhou royal family.
If they make a fuss, Emperor Xiaode will also worry twice.
Then Lin Zhao waved his sword in front of King Zhi, only afraid that he would commit a great crime of disrespect.
If Emperor Xiaode wanted to open his face for the royal family, even if he was the commander of Jinyiwei, Lin Zhao was afraid that it would be unbearable......
Lin Zhao, however, just stood there with a pale face.
On the side, King Su, who was standing side by side with King Ding, swept his eyes over Lin Zhao, and in the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be a sense of ridicule.
......
The imperial family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, similar to the royal families of the former Song Dynasty and the former Ming Dynasty, was very restricted in terms of political participation.
Only the Emperor Taishang reigned for forty-five years, and he gave birth to too many sons, and he didn't know which one to choose as the prince at the beginning, so he arranged for his sons to participate in political affairs.
Some are in charge of the household department, some are in charge of the criminal department, and some are in charge of the officials' department.
At the same time, a group of talented sons were cultivated, and at the same time, they were also cultivated with great ambition.
Therefore, there is a saying that the five dragons compete for succession.
However, this is also limited to Emperor Xiaode's struggle for the throne.
Other royal families are still not qualified to participate in political affairs.
Therefore, for the princes of the clan, since they cannot participate in the governor's affairs, they can only toss themselves in dignity and decency.
This is almost also the meaning of life of the vast majority of the princes of the Great Zhou royal family, and the bottom line they adhere to.
If you are a royal family, you will live like a person, just like when Emperor Longqing of the former Ming Dynasty was in the palace, you still have to endure the exploitation of Yan Shifan.
So what's the point of being alive?
Therefore, the Great Zhou royal family must be noble and decent, and cannot be bullied by the ministers.
Therefore, when they saw that there were blood stains on the robe of the Zhiwang Python, these dragon sons and grandsons were immediately furious!
So immediately Prince Chengzhong stood up and said: "His Royal Highness King Ding, you are the eldest son of His Majesty, your identity is very good, and you are benevolent, but today's matter is not solved by benevolence, my Great Zhou royal family was splashed with the blood of my subordinates, if there is no explanation, where is the face of my royal family?"
When King Ding heard this, the smile on his face gradually faded, and his brows furrowed.
These uncles, brothers, and brothers are not good, they seem to have come specifically to raise the bar, and they are bent on making things bigger.
Seeing that King Ding seemed to be hesitant, Prince Jian took a step forward and said: "King Ding, no matter who is right or wrong today, even if the straight king is bad, it is not the turn of the straight king to be a courtier, and he will point fingers in front of the straight king." ”
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately aroused the reaction of the royal family.
"That's right! It's just disrespectful! Who is the king and who is the minister?"
"Hmph, I'm afraid that I'm arrogant on the streets of Chang'an, and there is no one in front of me, not even the Great Zhou royal family. ”
"I don't know if there is any condescension in my eyes. ”
A group of dragon sons and grandsons gathered together, looking at Lin Zhao opposite with cold eyes.
There's an old saying that describes it well.
If eyes can kill, I'm afraid that dozens of eyes have already killed Lin Zhao countless times.
Dingwang is not a bunch of brainless goods.
He had dreams of ascending to the throne.
So I have been tempering my mind.
Therefore, when questioned by your relatives, King Ding smiled slightly and said: "Uncles, brothers, brothers, and brothers, don't be impatient! This matter is a case within a case, and there is a conspiracy involved in it, and I hope you will not step into it for no reason and become a pawn of the people behind the scenes!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent.
But then, King Su said slowly: "King Ding, the matter has come to this, the case will naturally be investigated, but the insult suffered by the king must also be resolved." ”
"No matter what Lin Zhao wants, whether he intends to kill people or doesn't know how to be respectful, after all, it involves the dignity of my Great Zhou royal family, and the face of the straight king, we can't tolerate it, there are people in front of us, there is no elder or younger, the king, we are all idle royal families, the face is not enough, you decide the king to participate in political affairs, right and wrong, you should decide with us!"
"That's right, let Lin Zhao apologize!"
"Then this brocade guard leader apologizes!"
"I'll be merciful, just let him kowtow to Brother Zhiwang!"
In the face of the attack of the entire Great Zhou royal family, King Ding's face was indifferent, he looked at Lin Zhao, and said calmly: "Lord Lin, what do you have to say?"
Lin Zhao smiled slightly, and arched his hand: "Your Royal Highness King Ding, you must know that the arrow poison on Liu Chuan, the son of Baron Guangen, has not been cleaned up, and the matter of arrow poison must continue to be investigated in detail, so if there is nothing else, the minister will leave first." ”
When King Ding heard this, his eyes flashed, he looked at Lin Zhao with a faint face, and suddenly said, "Okay!"
After that, he also turned to leave, walked out of the crowd, flew directly on the horse under his crotch, and walked away
Everyone watched King Ding leave, and when they looked back at Lin Zhao, they saw that he had already taken Liu Chuan, got on the horse, and led the Jinyi guards to go in the other direction.
For a while, many royal princes were dumbfounded.
