The third prince clenched his fists tightly.

Liu Zhuguo is actually still the father-in-law of his third prince, and when he went to persuade Liu Zhuguo yesterday, the third prince also mentioned this.

In case they can't do anything.

Unexpectedly, it really developed to this point in the end.

As soon as Liu Zhuguo died, the confrontation situation in front of him was immediately broken.

No matter how many people Chen Changfeng brings, it is useless.

In order to deal with Chen Changfeng, his third prince made a bloody investment this time.

Chen Changfeng looked at the dead Liu Zhuguo and sighed secretly in his heart.

Maybe Liu Zhuguo and the three princes have reached a consensus, but it doesn't matter at the moment.

In order to deal with himself, in order to prevent the imperial examination, Liu Zhuguo gambled with his life, which can be regarded as extremely ruthless.

"Prime Minister Yao, let everyone go back and rest." Chen Changfeng waved his hand at Yao Xiaoren.

Yao Xiaoren was silent for a moment, but still nodded.

Liu Zhuguo committed suicide, and the nature of the matter has completely changed.

It's not a good thing for the people to stay here.

The people left one after another, and many people looked back at Chen Changfeng with a worried face.

Even they knew in their hearts at this moment that the dignified Zhuguo committed suicide for this matter, and Chen Changfeng, the prince, was afraid that he would suffer.

When the emperor heard the news of Liu Zhuguo's suicide, the red pen in his hand fell on the table at that time.

The fold in front of him was also dyed red with a red pen.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, and Liu Xi, who was standing below, did not dare to make any sound.

Maybe the emperor went out in time just now, and such a thing would not have happened.

"These sons of mine are all ruthless." The emperor suddenly said such an inexplicable sentence.

Liu Xi was even more nervous.

The emperor put on his coat and walked out of the upper study.

When I came to the entrance of the imperial city, there were only a group of officials who knelt in the morning.

The people in the morning had all been evacuated.

"Father, you have to be the master of Liu Zhuguo." As soon as the three princes saw the emperor appear, they immediately knelt down and crawled towards the emperor.

The posture of the three princes made all the officials secretly say that the three princes were ruthless.

The emperor grabbed the third prince and looked at him deeply, and then walked to Liu Zhuguo's body.

The emperor thought about the various endings of today's incident, but he did not expect that someone would choose to commit suicide.

And the person who committed suicide is still a veteran in the army, Liu Zhuguo, who once made great achievements for the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Liu Zhuguo has been a great warrior for me for half my life, but I didn't expect to end up like this."

"Your Majesty, Liu Zhuguo begged Your Majesty to cancel the imperial examination with his life, please cancel it."

"This matter is caused by His Royal Highness the Prince, Liu Zhuguo's death is all caused by His Royal Highness the Prince, please Your Majesty severely punish His Royal Highness the Prince."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unworthy of the throne and forced Liu Zhuguo to death, and the ministers ask His Majesty to depose him as the crown prince."

The hundred officials instantly knelt down again.

All of them were full of supplication.

"You are simply talking nonsense, Liu Zhuguo committed suicide, what does it have to do with His Royal Highness the Prince, this imperial examination was proposed by this official, and if you want to find trouble, it is also trouble for this official."

"Liu Zhuguo asked His Majesty to cancel the imperial examination with his own life, then I, Tang Mingren, can also use my life to ask Your Majesty to continue to implement the imperial examination." Tang Mingren's eyes were firm, and he walked quickly to Liu Zhuguo's corpse and pulled out a dagger from his body.

It is to quickly stab yourself in the heart.

"Stop!" Chen Changfeng's complexion changed greatly.

Yao Xiao's hands were quick, and he knocked away the dagger in Tang Mingren's hand.

"Donald, what are you doing!" Chen Changfeng grabbed Tang Mingren's arm and looked shocked.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, since Liu Zhuguo, the father-in-law of the third prince, can frame the prince with his life for him, then the minister, as the prince's father-in-law, can naturally sacrifice his life for the prince." Tang Mingren's voice was resolute, without the slightest hesitation.

And it is to tell everyone directly that Liu Zhuguo's death was not because of any imperial examination, but for his three princes.

The third prince's complexion changed slightly.

Tang Mingren's remarks, coupled with his suicide just now, would definitely make the emperor dissatisfied with Liu Zhuguo's death.

The emperor's face was gloomy, he knew that Liu Zhuguo's death was not worrying about any Daming Sheji at all, but he was persecuting himself as the emperor for his third prince.

If every time he encounters a major event in the future, someone will force him with his life, wouldn't he, the emperor, have to let it go?

If one day, the hundred officials forced themselves, the emperor, to abdicate with their lives, would he return or not?

The emperor's eyes looked at the third prince again.

"Father, it's not what Tang Mingren said, Liu Zhuguo is just thinking about the Ming Dynasty, and he has nothing to do with his sons, Father Mingjian." The third prince lay on the ground, his tone full of sadness.

What the three princes are thinking, how can the emperor not know.

The emperor always thought that the second prince was scheming, but now it seems that the third prince is obviously better, and he is even more ruthless.

Liu Zhuguo is the father-in-law of the three princes, and when the three princes entered the army, they were also taken care of by Liu Zhuguo to be able to flourish.

But today, in order to deal with Chen Changfeng, he didn't even let Liu Zhuguo go.

Ruthless!

Really ruthless!

Whatever the truth may be, the seeds of doubt have been planted.

"Father, the people have already left, obviously they also feel that the imperial examination is not suitable for my Daming, and now Liu Zhuguo is even more in order to persuade his father, he did not hesitate to persuade him with his life, and there are so many officials, I also hope that my father can think twice."

"The son wants to ask his father to reconsider and cancel the imperial examination." The second prince suddenly knelt down at this time and asked the emperor.

"Your Majesty, please think twice." The officials also chimed in.

The third prince didn't speak, but he believed that the emperor would definitely not turn around and leave like before.

This time, after all, they won.

The emperor looked at the second prince, the people were gone, and there were no more people to confront them.

But these people obviously think of their own emperor as a fool to be manipulated by them.

Can you take one's own life to your advantage?

The imperial examination is an opportunity for the Ming Dynasty, and he, the emperor, will give up this opportunity because he committed suicide alone?

"Okay, you're good, don't you just want your interests to suffer."

"Okay, I promise you that the recommendation will remain the same as in previous years." The emperor's words made the second and third princes, as well as the officials, overjoyed.

Finally, the emperor agreed to their demands.

Although the emperor's words are hard to hear, who of them cares about this.

As long as the system of recommending officials can be continued, the Ming Dynasty will still be in their hands.

"Your Majesty, this matter is all because of the crown prince, please ...... Your Majesty"

"As for Liu Zhuguo's suicide, my heart is very painful, and I am buried in the scenery of the Ministry of Rites, there must be no mistake." Some officials wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Chen Changfeng, but they didn't want to be interrupted by the emperor.

"Prince, since the system of recommending officials continues to be implemented, all the contents of the imperial examination on recommending officials are invalid."

"Next spring, you will be the chief examiner of the first imperial examination of my Ming Dynasty."

"What?"

As soon as the emperor's words fell, someone was startled.

The system of recommending officials will continue to be implemented as in previous years.

But the imperial examination still has to be carried out?

So what did they fight about that day?

"Your Majesty!" Someone wanted to stop the emperor, but when he looked up, he saw that the emperor had already entered the imperial city.

At the entrance of the imperial city, only a group of officials were left stunned.
