Chapter 598 Asking for Hardship

It was a cloudy day, and the sparse clouds stained the sky. In the distance, the eldest prince was walking by the edge of the imperial garden, and the sky was slightly cool, revealing a calm coldness. Looking at the jasmine next to him, the fragrant fragrance lingers on the nose. In a blink of an eye, I saw Song Chunian and a eunuch chatting secretly. The slightly bowed figures of the two loomed in the jasmine bushes, and they were still being sent by the eldest prince. The two whispered, their eyes revealing caution and caution. The eldest prince tiptoed to the vicinity, slowly stroked the jasmine bushes to both sides, squatted down slightly, and listened carefully with his ears, and they talked again......

"Chu Nian, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but they are all waiting for this. The emperor probably has some wishes for this matter. Chu Nian, whether this matter should be reported to the court, the emperor on the future of the dynasty, should also take this matter as the focus of the dynasty at present, this matter is very important, I hope you can ask the emperor for advice, you must be cautious! The official in the long robe whispered softly, and his tone was extremely low, so that only the two of them could hear it, and even the sighing was clearly visible......

What is the need to be so careful? Report to the Emperor? For the future of the dynasty? Could it be that it is for the sake of choosing a child? No, since Song Chunian wants to intervene in this matter, the matter should not be small, and the two of them whispered secretly, so it can be seen that this matter can only be reported to Song Chunian to the court. Could it be that Song Chunian is going to do something? The things that the emperor has to decide should be the most important thing!

"Song Guan, you and I should not listen to others when discussing this matter. The matter of establishing a prince should have been decided by the emperor himself, and in today's official situation, it is very important to establish a prince or not! But if everyone comes to the emperor to ask for an appointment, the result should be satisfactory to everyone compared to the fact that I have discussed with the emperor alone. Tomorrow morning, when the court is in court, I will go to ask for advice, and ask the Song officials to summon all the official servants to pay my court! ”

What the! Immediate storage? The emperor has never talked about this matter, it is difficult that he has already premeditated, but in view of the civil and military officials, the eyes and ears are mixed, and the princes have long had the intention of competing for the throne in their hearts, it is not convenient to discuss it early. But now my position has long been illusory, this opportunity is rare, this position of prince, if I take it, the future days will be like a fish in water. Since you have heard this, it is better to go to the emperor tonight and take the position of the prince!

The eldest prince saw that Song Chunian and the official were still talking about this matter, and since he heard about it, he seized the opportunity. Slowly flattening the jasmine flowers on both sides, he took a deep breath and walked along the path next to the Imperial Garden. The plan in my heart has been premeditated for a long time, and now I just wait for the storage position to belong......

"But among the top and bottom of the Manchu Dynasty and the crown prince, the most famous and prosperous princes can be counted, and the storage position must be in the hands of the eldest prince. Chu Nian, in your opinion, among these princes, who can be the prince, except for the eldest prince, which one can still be competent? ”

"Song Guan, don't you know, this great prince, can ...... There's something wrong with that."

"Wrong? Why?"

"This ...... A few days ago, many officials confided in me that the prince was corrupt and bribed, and often received money from many officials. And these ministers are ready to talk to the emperor about this matter, and the eldest prince must not ......"

A few stars fell in the night sky, and there was not a trace of clouds and mist in the sky, and for a moment I thought that the sky was an omen. The eldest prince paced in the room, clutching the cup and plate and putting it down, over and over again, as if he had something on his mind, and the atmosphere was heavy......

"Father, the son-in-law invited you to come at night, which really disturbed your leisure. But it's just for a drink. Since childhood, Erchen has always had a good chat with you. From the majesty of looking at you at the queen mother when I was a child, to now I can take on a side, my son wants to thank you for your love, and I want to take this opportunity to talk to you tonight, think about life, and get drunk! ”

"The eldest prince, I was called so late, I'm afraid it's not for this matter, right? In the dead of night, and a banquet was set up to set up wine, looking at this posture, is there something to discuss with me, and guess that what has happened in the past few days will not be related to Lichu?"

The eldest prince slowly picked up the wine jug, carefully poured a glass of wine, and slowly picked up the wine glass. He took a deep breath and smoothed out his wrinkled clothes......

"Father, the son and son will vomit as soon as possible. Thinking about this matter of establishing a reserve, no matter which brother you set up the storage position to, I have no complaints. They are all brothers of blood and bones, and I have never treated them as outsiders. A few days ago, there was a locust plague in Fenshui, and the officials of the Erchen Association and the two younger brothers worked together to solve problems for our dynasty and share labor services for you. But my two younger brothers worked harder than I did, and I regretted that I didn't do more to keep my younger brothers from working so hard. The younger brothers also love their sons in every way, as the elder brothers, they should give up this storage position to the younger brothers, and set an example for the elder brothers, hoping that the father and the emperor will be fulfilled! ”

The emperor pondered the words of this prince, and every sentence had many meanings, and every word was transparent. On the surface, it is for the sake of his brother's position, but behind it, he is indeed trying to win over his own position, which is quite a prince. The depth of the eldest prince's scheming really gave me some insight.

"The eldest prince, there is a moral in these words, and it also makes me understand. Now that you know what Chu Nian is going to report tomorrow, I will also talk to you clearly. It is true that you should not be the choice of the prince, because someone has already exposed to me that you are corrupt and bribery, tax evasion, and misdeeds among officials, do you think you can still have this opportunity to become the prince of a country? Do you still have the face to talk to me about this prince? The emperor's face turned pale, and he slammed the wine glass in his hand to the ground. With a bang, the atmosphere began to change subtly. A glass of wine that had just been poured turned into a puddle of water and spilled onto the ground. It seems that this cup shattered the desire and dream of the eldest prince to be the prince. The emperor's eyes revealed anger and strict law, as if the words of the great prince ignited the fire in the emperor's heart, and it would engulf the entire palace in an instant......

The atmosphere was changing, and the originally golden room was filled with a flow of cold flames. Passing through the side of the emperor and the eldest prince little by little, it seems that all this has already been determined.

On the face of the eldest prince, a trace of cold sweat turned into beads of sweat and fell on his hands. The slightly trembling body was accompanied by a little shock, and sentence by sentence, the emperor's words pierced the heart of the eldest prince's finches, leaving traces in his cold and piercing blood.

"I ...... I didn't...... I didn't do that......"

The emperor glanced at the eldest prince with a cold and serious gaze, as if to say, you are such a vicious, but clever person, you are not worthy of being a prince at all!
