The crown prince didn't expect that his father knew everything about that year.

He privately wanted to encircle the Lin family, and took advantage of Ge's illness to explain to the Empress Dowager that he wanted the daughter of the Nalin family to be her stepmother, but the Empress Dowager not only did not agree, but also quickly promised Chang Ning to Li Yue.

When Chang Ning died, he was so frightened that he didn't come to his senses for several days, for fear that the emperor would implicate him because of the Lin family.

"Father, it's all the fault of the sons." The prince immediately knelt down.

When the emperor saw the prince's trembling appearance, he couldn't hold back his anger anymore, got up and kicked the prince, and the prince couldn't help screaming in pain.

Something that didn't come out of nowhere, the emperor's eyes widened: "You are also worthy of being my son." ”

No matter how ridiculous Ran Liu is, he dares to speak in the main hall, and he dares to invite himself to fight on the frontier, but this coward does not dare to do anything, and the country of the Wu Dynasty will be handed over to him in the future.

The earth-shaking farce that stirred up the capital was finally investigated, and the culprits were not those who had beaten their noses and swollen faces, but his son, the prince of the dignified Wu Dynasty.

He can't afford to lose face.

The emperor looked at the prince coldly: "Go and find out if there is enough food in the north to deal with the war, if you can't figure it out, you, the prince, will let Xian!" ”

The prince's hairs stood on end, and such a trivial matter would threaten his position as prince.

"Get out." The Emperor shouted.

The prince didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to say: "Father, the emperor is angry, and the sons and daughters will definitely find out." ”

The prince walked out of the main hall, only to see King Jin standing outside waiting for the summons, the prince's eyelids suddenly jumped, maybe all this was arranged by King Jin.

Zhao Mingjing stepped forward and saluted: "Prince." ”

The prince said lightly: "It's so late, the third brother is still waiting here." ”

Zhao Mingjing said: "My father sent me over two hours ago, but I have not been summoned. ”

The crown prince said: "My father probably forgot, I knew that I should have reminded my father," he paused deliberately, "It's cold, the third brother should pay attention to his body, so as not to suffer from the cold." With that, he walked straight forward.

Zhao Mingjing looked in the direction where the prince disappeared, obviously someone wanted to use the prince's hand to deal with Chengengong, the Ran family and the Lin family, by the way, mention him.

"Master Li," the chamberlain stepped forward, "the emperor has sent you." ”

Zhao Mingjing turned around and happened to see Li Yong.

Li Yong, the Li family hand-promoted by his father, he asked people to inquire, Li Yong has joined the army in Pinglu in recent years, not only the most powerful general around General Cui, but also has some reputation in northern Xinjiang after several wars, and it is understandable that his father wants to use him.

Zhao Mingjing had another figure in his mind.

Ji Yanran, who tried her best to marry Li Yong, seems to have made Li Yong admit this marriage, not only that, but also took care of Li Yue.

He didn't see that Ji Yanran still had the ability to defeat Jiang Jinyu, whether she deliberately pretended to be in front of him, or really lost her previous memory.

Li Yong entered the main hall, and the emperor was watching the recital, and he waited quietly for a while before he heard the emperor speak: "Do you know what to do for the crime of bullying the king?" ”

Li Yong bowed and said, "Weichen knows. ”

is not in a hurry, not humble or arrogant, standing there like a bright moon shining, which makes people can't help but trust him a little more.

The emperor threw the fold in his hand on the table, it was because of this that he would be deceived by Li Yong, thinking of this, the anger in his heart was even more difficult to suppress, and he wanted to let Li Yong be taken down immediately.

He wanted to know the truth more than he wanted to kill.

The emperor said, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" ”

Li Yong pondered for a moment before saying, "The emperor wants to ask about the Northern Frontier, right?" Hedong Province, Pinglu Province, and Hebei Province are involved in the whole body......"

"Still going around in circles with me," the emperor looked at Li Yong sharply, "I personally overturned the case for your Li family, and mentioned you to be a lieutenant, so you repay me like this and hide the court repeat offenders...... What a guts. ”

A trace of surprise flashed on Li Yong's face when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal, and instead of kneeling, he bent down and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has no choice. ”

The emperor said, "No choice? What else can your Li family do besides deceiving the king? "What is the difference between today's Li Yong and Li Yue back then.

Long Yan was furious, and the palace people in the hall all knelt down tremblingly.

Li Yong was still standing there: "After Wei Chen heard that Ji Yuanheng escaped from the exile, he also wanted to send him back unnoticed, so that he could avoid the disaster of the Ji family and the Li family. ”

Ji Yuanheng escaped from the place of exile, but no official report was sent to the capital, and the officials of the Hebei Provincial Military Division also entered Beijing without permission, which shows that there are also officials in Hebei Province who are worried about the shortage of military food and want to find another way to reverse the situation.

It just so happened that Ji Yuanheng was the most accessible to the canal waters, and he had collected grain in the south of the Yangtze River with Lord Ji Chengen, and it was no coincidence that Ji Yuanheng entered Beijing at this time, but it was a last resort. The emperor also knew about Ji Yuanheng's ability, and he asked to dredge the canal, and the emperor also ordered the construction of 500 large ships. ”

At the mention of these five hundred large ships, the emperor's face was even more ugly.

The emperor said coldly: "This boat can be launched, but it is impossible to pass through with food, and now it is abandoned aside, which is another crime of the Ji family's father and son." ”

Li Yong said: "As long as the emperor gives Ji Yuanheng another chance, he will definitely be able to send grain from the south to the capital, Ji Yuanheng concluded that there will be heavy rain in the south this year, and the river will be wide enough for big boats to pass." ”

"Why did I give him this opportunity," the Emperor said with an angry face, "Neither I nor the Martial Dynasty will tolerate the prisoners who have escaped from the penal colony, including you. ”

"Your Majesty, Hebei Province can leave the Wu Dynasty to the east or north, whether it is the Turks or Goguryeo, they are robbing the people on the frontier, because those people don't know how to farm," Li Yong said and took out a booklet from his sleeve, "This is the people rescued by Weichen every year when he was in Pinglu, these people are all registered in the household, as for those displaced people, they will only stay in the Turks, because when they return to the Wu Dynasty, they will also have no land to cultivate."

Three or four out of ten exiled prisoners in the frontier die every year, some of these people just escaped and went to Fanguo, the Ji family father and son really want to escape, why do they want to go far, returning to the capital must be a dead end, after the Ji family escapes, the officials in the exile will only treat them as sick and dead and report to the court, and will not implicate relatives and friends, they did not do this because they did not want to escape at all.

They want to come back, finish those things for the imperial court, and ask the emperor to see the situation of the big ship entering Beijing, maybe this time they can turn the situation around for the Wu Dynasty.

The emperor can kill Weichen and others at any time, whether it is the Ji family or the Li family's family members in the capital, the emperor ordered the killing to be done in the blink of an eye, dredge the canal, and transport grain into Beijing but the Ji family father and son. ”

The emperor's face was gloomy and uncertain: "Why should I believe you? ”

Li Yong raised his head: "With the head of Weichen Xiang, no one knows that Ji Yuanheng is going to the south, if the court can't use grain, the emperor can treat Weichen and other capital crimes at any time, if the court uses grain, the Ji family can't send grain to the capital, and Weichen and others are still capital crimes." ”

The emperor looked at Li Yong and suddenly said, "I will condemn you to death now." ”

A ray of sunlight in the early morning penetrated through the window, Li Yong lifted his robe, and the silver edge outlined by the silver thread seemed to be shining: "Weichen takes the order." ”

"Someone," said the emperor, "take Li Yong down ......"

After a gloomy voice, two guards walked in.

……

Ji Yanran's heart was uneasy, even if she was in the prison of Dali Temple, she had never been so flustered in the face of Jiang Chi. The night seemed to be particularly difficult, and she didn't feel the slightest sleepiness with her eyes open.

If there is a little wind and grass in the yard, she will think that Li Yong is back.

If she had known today, she should have made peace with him decisively earlier, and she would have avoided worrying.
