If the emperor's younger brother Li Jingsui really has a plot, then after Li Jingsui's suspected misdeeds of rebellion are exposed, he should not dare to return to Jinling. If he resists the decree and does not return to Jinling, it means that he has a ghost in his heart, and if he dares to return to Jinling, it means that he has nothing to do with this matter.

Emperor Li Jing used this extremely simple way to judge whether Li Jingsui was still loyal to himself, and I have to say that although this method is simple, it is often the most effective, at least Li Jing thinks so in his heart.

However, everyone underestimated Li Jingsui.

This imperial brother, who has always been seen as weak and bullying by outsiders, actually made a bold decision, regardless of the hard persuasion of Xu Ruchang and others, and took his wife and children overnight to Jinling, the national capital that has now become a land of right and wrong. In fact, when Li Jingsui received Li Jing's secret order to summon him back to Beijing, his heart was like a mirror, and he knew that Sun Sheng must have started to do it to himself.

Li Jingsui really didn't have much psychological preparation at this time, more of a fear of the unknown and cherishing his life.

Since last year, he has been honestly staying in Fuzhou City under Xu Ruchang's rule, drinking all day long, making music and reciting poems, but don't look at his frivolous appearance of not asking about the world, in fact, he is as careful as a hair, Xu Ruchang, as a town festival envoy, will naturally reveal to him the changes in the current situation, and even expressed his willingness to support this brother-in-law to succeed to the throne more than once.

And Li Jingsui has always just listened silently, never expressed his position, and immediately changed the topic and continued to drink and compose poems, Xu Ruchang could only give up, but to be honest, of course, Li Jingsui did not dream of that throne once.

Which daughter is charming in knowledge of power since ancient times? It's just that Xu Ruchang, who has read history books too much, is very vague in his heart, the road to the throne is too dangerous and difficult, I have won the great cause, and I have lost the bones, I am not prepared to take risks at all, and I am purely helpless in my eyes.

But Xu Ruchang is still too naïve, since I was put on the throne of the imperial brother by Sun Sheng, my fate has been doomed, and I will eventually be drawn into the whirlpool of power struggle.

This time, His Majesty called him to retire from Beijing, although Xu Ruchang was afraid in his heart, he still cowardly led the next family to step on the road back to Jinling. That time, Xu Ruchang carefully brought very few gifts to the imperial brother and sister-in-law, and I even thought pessimistically that it might be the last time I honored Sun Sheng and Zhong, and I might have died in Jinling before, and before I died, I would be as desolate as Chen Jue's play, I still don't know.

When that incident reached the ears of Li Jingsui, the king of Yan, through Han Xizai's letter, Li Jingsui was anxious when Zhang Wenbiao suddenly divided his troops to besiege Yangzhou Mansion, the eastern capital, and learned that the eighth uncle Xu Ruchang was a section, Li Jingsui was almost fainted by Li Jing's anger, because I understood in my heart that Shi Yu now obviously intends to be able to use old sobriety to cover up my domineering knowledge, and now that the national disaster is at the head, is it still chaotic enough?

What about Xu Ruchang's bravery, I am the emperor's imperial brother who was canonized by the emperor's decree, one person above ten thousand people, that is the orthodox prince, Li Jing dared to be forced to start with Xu Ruchang, and even played a trick to frame the country, which will touch the bottom line of many loyal people who serve the country?

What's more, what Li Jing did that time actually dragged Li Jingsui forward.

Sure enough, Sun Sheng's eyes were red by what I said, and he personally helped up the tearful younger brother, put on a bad robe and brought a gold crown to me, and the bad student comforted me and said that he was absolutely any rumor in the letter, and knew that Xu Ruchang was a loyal person and his favorite eighth brother.

However, what Li Jing thought of was that Xu Ruchang was hiding in the side hall at this time. After that, I was drinking with the imperial brother, and exchanging heartfelt words with Sun Sheng about brotherhood. When Li Jing came to see him, Sun Sheng naturally wanted the two to quarrel in front of him, so he asked Xu Ruchang to take refuge in the side hall for a while. But he thought that Li Jing's vicious calculations behind his back fell into Xu Ruchang's ears.

Then Xu Ruchang ended up with a handful of snot and tears and recounted the events of more than ten years, from how I and the Sun Sheng brothers endured hardships when the first emperor started the business, and how I repaid my brother's kindness when Sun Sheng ascended the throne, obviously I had no chance to participate in the court politics, but because I had been thinking about giving up the position of the prince to my nephew Shi Yujun, I was willing to stay away from Jinling and go to Jiangxi to suffer, and those were to repay my brother's kindness in the past.

When he learned that Shi Yujun was willing to withdraw from Beijing, Li Jing immediately realized that it must be Sun Sheng's test of whether Shi Yujun was loyal, and in fact it was a response to his own suggestion that Xu Ruchang was suspected of rebellion. And Xu Ruchang really dared to come to Jinling, such a result can be imagined, and in the end, His Majesty will definitely be relieved because of brotherly love.

In this situation, Sun Sheng asked the reason, Xu Ruchang burst into tears, and said that the rebellion was not settled at the time of the national disaster, and it was possible to make the court situation neat again, for the stability of Xiao Tang, he asked Sun Sheng to cut off his position as the emperor's younger brother and demote him to a concubine.

The most fatal thing is that since Li Jing dared to deal with Shi Yujun, how could he be in vain? Xu Ruchang returned to Beijing and was able to seize such a bad opportunity, but it caused King Yan to lose a lot of people's hearts in vain!

At the same time, Sun Sheng also spoke for Li Jing, the prime minister of the left, saying that Li Jing was young after all, and Xu only said those calculations after listening to the words of others, and Sun Sheng himself would definitely investigate the matter thoroughly and bring the rumor-mongers to justice.

That is Li Jing's ability.

On the 17th of January, the emperor's younger brother Shi Yujun arrived safely in Jinling, the national capital. Li Jing was very surprised by Xu Ruchang's arrival, because Li Jing actually knew about Sun Sheng's summoning Xu Ruchang to withdraw from Beijing.

It has been less than eight years since he was named the emperor's younger brother, and Xu Ruchang has given Sun Sheng almost every year, asking to go to the reserve and return to the domain, which shows his sincerity, but now he has been slandered behind his back, which has caused the brotherhood to break down, and my life is like death. Xu Ruchang, who was excited at the beginning, suddenly begged Sun Sheng to make himself uncomfortable, so as not to be splashed with dirty water and ruin his reputation, so as to let go of my wife Da Yunyun.

Sun Sheng was also very embarrassed, but he could only pretend to be panicked. Before Li Jing left with a sullen breath, when Xu Ruchang walked out of the side hall in a panic, Yi Chong took all the python robes and golden crowns under him, and knelt on the ground with a bare and strong lower body.

But seeing that the meat had been delivered to his mouth, Li Jing was unwilling to let go of that rare opportunity, knowing that Sun Sheng had not relieved his doubts about Xu Ruchang, Li Jing still left the palace that night to see Sun Sheng, and in Chengxin Hall, Shi Yu met Shi Yu.

Whether Shi Yujun is sincere or superb in acting skills, others know, but as Sun Sheng's sibling, I naturally have insight into the psychology of that imperial brother and know that way to move me the most.

Before noon the next day, Li Jingfang learned the news that the emperor's younger brother Xu Ruchang's family had left, and he was stunned for a long time, and he stomped his feet and scolded in regret.

At that time, the emperor was serving wine and food behind his noodles, and he seemed to be pouring himself a drink. But Shi Yu didn't seem to notice that there were actually no two sets of wine cups and chopsticks under the case, and directly proposed to Sun Sheng to imprison the emperor's younger brother Shi Yujun in Jinling to avoid the previous troubles.

Li Jing didn't know the consequences of my actions that time, in my opinion, it was just an act of clearing dissidents for the palace of King Yan, but he knew that the imperial brother I dealt with, Shi Yujun, was a member of the royal family, and I hadn't crossed the line yet.

Xu Ruchang heard so little outside, just as it was the scene when Shi Yu said goodbye, I knew very well in my heart that the land of Jinling could stay for a long time, and that trip was not considered a ghost gate, so I asked to leave Jinling immediately on the pretext that I wanted to face the embarrassing quarrel when I was facing Zuo Prime Minister Li Jing, and Sun Sheng also agreed to me.

And Sun Sheng also patiently told Xu Ruchang that when the war in Jiangbei has fallen into a stalemate, the national capital Jinling is in danger, and now that the Song rebel party has just been pacified, Jiangxi will definitely be in chaos again, and I hope that before Shi Yujun returns to Fuzhou City, he can take on the responsibility of the imperial brother and the little marshal of the soldiers and horses, care about state affairs, and appease the towns of Jiangxi for the imperial court.

In short, at the beginning, the imperial brother Xu Ruchang was but relied on tears to awaken Sun Sheng's family affection, and when he left the palace, he was missing a pair of rough marigolds rewarded by Sun Sheng, and at the same time he also got Sun Sheng's promise that he would deprive me of my freedom, and I Xu Ruchang was still the noble imperial brother of Xiao Tang.
