Chapter 370: Loyalty and filial piety are incomplete
King Chen glanced up at the emperor, as if he was very afraid. Seeing that the emperor's face was as usual, he continued: "Erchen is hesitating, do you want to bring those two craftsmen to my father...... I thought, leave this idle business alone, let someone put them back. Life or death, depending on their creation......"
"Anyway, Lord Cai's case has passed, but it's just a grievance. In this world, there are so many grievances, and there is no shortage of him. But since my father mentioned it...... It would be too inappropriate for the retainers to let people go and deliberately tell their father that they couldn't find them. ”
After King Chen finished speaking, he knelt down in an orderly manner, waiting for the emperor's reaction.
That's what needs to be said, too much to say and more to explain, but it seems too deliberate.
The emperor leaned on the dragon chair, looked at King Chen for a long time with joy and anger, and said with a smile: "This is very good, you quickly bring those two craftsmen to the palace, and I will interrogate them personally." ”
King Chen didn't say much, nor did he distinguish the emperor's joy and anger, and said happily: "Okay, Erchen will do it." ”
The emperor nodded and ordered King Chen to step down.
King Chen didn't know if the emperor believed his words, but whether the emperor believed it or not, he could only say that.
In fact, it doesn't matter if the emperor doesn't believe it, what matters is the attitude he shows. Even if his father thinks that he is calculating the crown prince, as long as the father thinks that he is still jealous of the monarch's father, and knows that calculating the eldest brother is wrong, and knows that he has to cover it up in a false and gentle way, he will not do much care.
What my father is afraid of is not their calculations, but that they are not ashamed of their disrespect for their father and their audacity.
After King Chen left, the emperor continued to lean on the dragon chair, staring and pondering for a long time......
What the third child said sounded reasonable. It was only because of his friendship with Cai Sheng that he made this arrangement, which is normal. But when he was doing this, he didn't think about calculating his eldest brother? Obviously, once this matter is exposed, the victim must be his eldest brother, but he also reminded Cai Sheng, saying that he must prepare in order to overturn the case in the future. If he didn't have the slightest calculation of the prince's heart, it would be impossible.
His third son is most like him. pretending to be stupid on the surface, but in fact, he seems to be a mirror of everything in his heart. The third child was naturally very clear about his own dangerous situation, and he had long known that his eldest brother was dissatisfied with him. So it's normal to seize the opportunity and want to take his eldest brother into an army.
He is not afraid that these sons will plot for the throne, what he taboos is that these sons one by one, for the sake of the throne, also count him in it. But the third child is still afraid of him, and he still knows how to hide this intention in front of him, and this intention is not to the extent that he can't tolerate it.
Now that I think about it, when the first day of the first year was given food, the third child's reaction, although it was not necessarily pretended, was also different from the reason he had understood before. The reason why the third child was so surprised was that he didn't expect him to show his intention to promote him so quickly, and he didn't expect that his plan had not yet begun to be revealed, and he had already obtained the effect that would only be seen after it was revealed.
The emperor shook his head and smiled, the thoughts of his two sons are not easy to grasp than the thoughts of the ministers of the court.
At this time, it seems that compared with the crown prince, although the third child is also plotting, he is still a little less courageous, and what he does is just something to seize the opportunity. And the prince's plan is too bold.
Originally, he planned to ask the third child to investigate this matter, just to give the Zhenguo Mansion another blow. This matter can almost be conclusive, it is better to take this opportunity to punish the prince fiercely, so that the Zhenguo Mansion will be anxious. And letting the third child participate in it can make the panic on the side of the Zhenguo Mansion a little heavier.
What the crown prince did did make the emperor quite angry. The reason why the prince is to be severely punished, on the one hand, is to give the prince a warning, give a warning, and make an example of the monkey; But the most important thing is to suppress the Zhenguo Mansion.
If it was just to warn the prince, he might not have used any too severe punishment. After all, punishing the prince is equivalent to a change in the capital, and there are many things involved.
But as long as the power of the Zhenguo Mansion is still there, this punishment is a matter of time. It is better to suppress it as soon as possible when Lin'er's audacity is just emerging, so as not to prevent Lin'er from being instigated by his grandfather's family to do more outrageous things in the future.
Taking advantage of the fact that he is now strong and healthy, he can still toss and move, and he must clean up the hidden dangers in the court, so that when he is old and healthy, the situation in the court will be turbulent.
Out of Weiyang Palace, King Chen left the emperor's attitude behind. He only acted within the limits he was sure was safe, and there was no need for him to be overly concerned about how his father felt within that range. As long as you are sure that no matter what your father thinks, he will not be punished for this.
The days are still long, and there are too many things, and the conclusion made by my father on this matter may be overturned by himself when it comes to another matter in the future. He can walk on the edge of danger, and as long as he doesn't get out of the line, he can easily pull himself into a safer position in the future.
But the eldest brother is different, this time, the eldest brother is really out of the line. He himself had already stepped out of the cliff with one foot, and neither he nor anyone else could pull him up. There is no other possibility than to fall.
King Chen returned from the Yang Palace, so he asked Zhuo Jiu to call Cheng Dazhi, gave Cheng Dazhi some instructions, and then went to the bed leisurely.
Even if King Chen is so leisurely, Rong Yunxi can also know the consequences of this incident.
I'm afraid that after a few days, the wind in the capital will change, and King Chen will not even have the mind to pretend to be leisurely.
Once the prince is convicted, the Zhenguo Mansion will definitely not be able to sit still, and will try every means to find King Chen's fault, in order to save the prince by suppressing King Chen.
There are only two powerful princes around the emperor. Once King Chen is convicted, the emperor will remember the prince's kindness and let the prince go. After a few times, it depends on who finally disappears completely, and who finally grows into the sky.
King Chen's plan was able to successfully make the prince plant a big heel, but it was also equivalent to pushing himself to the cusp of a storm that could no longer be retreated.
Once the weather in Kyoto changed, the situation of party strife officially began. In the future, if King Chen doesn't want to fight, and wants to find an excuse to get out, it is impossible.
You can only move forward, not turn back.
……
Prince's Mansion.
In the prince's study, Zhang Fuhai whispered in the prince's ear.
After listening to Zhang Fuhai's report, the corners of the prince's mouth were slightly hooked, and he said, "Very good." Keep staring. ”
"Yes." Zhang Fuhai answered and went to do errands again.
The prince slowly got up from his chair and sat down on the table, looking at the pure gold plaque above his head......
"Loyalty and filial piety...... Hehe......" The prince sneered.
He said to himself: "Father, I am loyal to you, have you ever given me the slightest trust?" I am filial to you, have you ever given me half of affection? ”
"Didn't you even give me a chance to question......
Sure enough, as he expected, his father had already received a reply from the Pure Dust Division, but he didn't ask him to go over for questioning.
In the case of such great doubts caused by that waist card, his father didn't even give him the opportunity to ask him to enter the palace to ask. But...... directly called the third child and asked the third child to check.
Therefore, in the heart of his father, the most trusted is his third son.
Zhang Fuhai said that King Chen was summoned to the palace, and after returning to the palace, not long after, King Chen's mansion rode out of the palace on a fast horse and went out of the city, and Weaving Star had already followed.
It seems that the father asked the third child to investigate the two missing craftsmen.
Seeing the waist card of the Prince's Mansion, it was impossible for his father not to think that he was framed. And who will frame him? In this court, apart from the third child, who else has the need to frame him?
Of course, it is estimated that the father will also think that it is also possible that he framed himself to blame the third child.
Therefore, the father is not sure which of his two sons is black and which is white.
In the case of not being sure of which is right and which is wrong, his father didn't even give him a chance to distinguish, so he chose directly, believing in the third child.
How does this keep him from chilling......
He made a thousand calculations, but he missed his father's ruthlessness to him and his father's trust in the third child.
All his responses can only be effective when there is a chance to enter the palace to distinguish them. He never imagined that he would not even have this opportunity.
Fortunately, he kept an eye on it, and let people secretly stare at the situation in the third mansion, otherwise, this time, he really lost completely.
However, even if he lost, it didn't make him feel more uncomfortable than seeing his father's trust in the third child. I only felt that this heart was slashed by a knife.
Like the third child, he is also the son of his father, and from childhood to adulthood, there is nothing wrong with him asking himself. But because of his relatives, because the queen mother was not as favored as the imperial concubine, his father did not treat him like this. is also a son, he is still the eldest son, or the crown prince, how can the father bear to be so ruthless to him?
He couldn't figure it out, but he accepted it.
This golden plaque is so dazzling in the sunlight. The word "loyalty and filial piety" was like an ironic knife, plunged into his heart.
Cheng Dazhi rode out of the city on a fast horse. Weaving Star didn't dare to chase with a fast horse, in case someone found out, so he could only chase all the way with light skills. At first she could keep up, but the horse was very fast, and as soon as she got out of the village, and when she reached the open field, she rode away, and she could not catch up at all. I could only continue to chase in the direction of the horse's travel, thinking that even if the man did not rest, the horse should rest. While he is eating and resting, he can always catch up.
Cheng Dazhi was very cautious, in case someone followed, as soon as he arrived in an open place, he looked around, but found nothing strange.
His Royal Highness didn't say that it had to be fast, just said that it was safe. He is mainly safe, and he is not in a hurry......
