Chapter 457: The Thoughts of the Seven Princes

Hearing Empress Lin's last words, the eyes of the Seventh Prince with his head down flashed, and he said secretly in his heart:

It seems that these two imperial sisters-in-law are not simply looking for themselves to save the four imperial brothers.

I just don't know how many ministers in the court don't want the Five Emperor Brothers to come back?

Li Ce raised his head suddenly, as if he was frightened by a passage behind Queen Lin's back, with a hint of greed in his shocked eyes, and hurriedly shook his head and said:

"I, I'm in charge of the big picture? No...... No, I can't. ”

When Empress Lin saw the reaction of the Seventh Prince, her eyes flashed, the sadness on her face remained unchanged, and she continued to say sadly:

"The court can't be left without an owner for a day, if Your Majesty can't come back, the royal family will naturally have a prince to stand up and stabilize the imperial army, seventh brother, we believe you can."

"No, no, how can I preside over the court alone, who will obey me?" Li Ce looked worried and expectant.

Lu Guifei blurted out: "How can no one obey you, you are the prince of the Dayu Dynasty, you are the oldest among all the princes in Kyoto, Lin Xiang, Lu Shangshu, Gongbu Tang Shangshu, Hubu Shangshu, Lord Chen, Lord Hao, they will all follow your opinion." ”

When Empress Lin saw that Concubine Lu said so quickly, she opened her mouth slightly, wanting to stop it, but it was already overwhelmed.

And the Eighth Emperor on the side also raised his head in shock, there were so many ministers in the court who didn't want the Five Emperor Brothers to enter the court.

Li Ce, on the other hand, was shocked and excited.

"Is it true that there are so many ministers who will support me?"

Empress Lin spoke: "Only the seventh brother can persuade the ancestor to give an order not to let the king of Chu enter the capital, and these important ministers who are loyal to the royal family will naturally cooperate with the seventh brother to stabilize the court." ”

Li Ce nodded quickly, "The King of Chu is indeed a little excessive, as a prince, how can he easily lead the army into Kyoto, has he still looked at the royal family, I immediately went to visit the ancestor with the eighth brother and asked the ancestor." ”

Empress Lin couldn't help showing excitement on her face, and hurriedly said:

"Okay, I'm tired of the seventh brother to go quickly, we are waiting for the good news of the seventh brother."

Concubine Lu on the side breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said with a smile: "Seventh brother, it's up to you!" ”

"Okay, the two imperial sisters-in-law will go back and wait for good news, and I will go back with my eighth brother to visit the ancestor after taking a bath."

Li Ce said excitedly.

"It's fine."

Empress Lin looked at Li Ce and Li Hui who still had traces of the fight they had just made, and they really needed to take a bath and go to see the ancestor decently.

"Then we'll wait for news from the seventh brother."

After repeated admonitions, Empress Lin and Concubine Lu finally left satisfied.

Seeing Empress Lin and Concubine Lu gradually disappear from sight, the excited look on Li Ce's face had disappeared, and he walked to the stone table in a few steps and sat down.

Li Hui also followed closely behind, sat down, and said with emotion on his face:

"Brother Huang, I didn't expect that there would be so many people in the imperial court to support the Fourth Emperor Brother."

"Support the Four Emperor Brothers? I don't think so. ”

Li Ce shook his head and ate the snacks on the stone table casually.

Seeing Li Ce eating dim sum with relish, Li Hui was also a little greedy, and he also pinched a big dim sum and put it in his mouth, and said inarticulately:

"Isn't it?"

"We don't know if our Fourth Emperor Brother has that ability, not to mention that he has been taken down by the Fifth Emperor Brother, how can there be so many ministers who are dead set on him." Li Ce sneered.

"Then why would they still resist the Five Emperor Brothers?"

Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said: "Eighth brother, don't forget, there is still the eldest brother in the south, if I guess correctly, it should be the eldest brother who did it, he was dragged by Chu Junxiong and can't come back for the time being, so he wants to use these officials of the imperial court to delay the time for the fifth brother to enter Beijing, the longer they delay, the more beneficial it will be to the eldest brother." ”

"Brother Emperor?" Li Hui frowned and said, "These two imperial sisters-in-law are actually helping the eldest imperial brother?" ”

"They are also helping the fourth emperor brother when they help the eldest brother, as they said, as long as the fifth brother does not enter Kyoto, everything is still possible, and after the eldest brother solves Chu Junxiong, let the fifth brother fight with the eldest brother of the eldest emperor, and the fourth emperor brother may not be impossible to be released." Li Ce said calmly.

"However, Lin Xiang and Lu Xun should have chosen the eldest brother."

"That's right." The Eighth Prince, Li Hui, nodded thoughtfully.

Li Ce saw that Li Hui was thinking seriously, smiled, and suddenly asked:

"Eighth brother, if you support one person to sit as emperor between the eldest brother, the fourth emperor brother and the fifth brother, who will you support?"

"Of course it's the fifth brother, he's so good to us, who don't support him." The eighth prince, Li Hui, blurted out.

But soon Li Hui closed his mouth and looked at Li Ce faintly.

When Li Ce saw Li Hui's eyes, he immediately knew what he meant, and scolded with a smile:

"What do you think, I naturally support the fifth brother."

"That's good, I thought the seventh brother forgot that the fifth brother was kind to us when he was in Kyoto." Li Hui breathed a sigh of relief and said with nostalgia:

"Old nine, eleven, twelve, thirteen, who don't remember that when the fifth brother was still in Kyoto, every time he came back from the palace, he always brought gifts to each of us, even after leaving Beijing, the fifth brother did not forget our birthday, and sent us birthday gifts in advance, these things we don't remember in our hearts, especially fourteen and fifteen, they are looking forward to the fifth brother's gift every time."

"In the past, the sixth brother was very good to us, but since he opened the palace, he has slowly changed, from often playing happily with us, and then to always watching us play with a heavy heart, and finally gradually becoming impatient." Li Hui said in frustration.

Li Ce recalled the past scenes in his mind, and said in a dull voice: "Once people grow up, their feelings will always change. ”

Li Hui raised his head and looked at Li Ce, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Then why did you still promise the two imperial sisters-in-law to ask the ancestor to prevent the fifth brother from entering Kyoto?" ”

Li Ce turned back from his depressed mood, looked at Li Hui and said with a smile:

"You know, I'm actually helping Fifth Brother."

"Huh?"

"Think about it, the eldest brother has joined forces with Lin Xiang, and they will try their best to delay the fifth brother's time.

Now they just want to delay the fifth brother's entry into Beijing through us, and if we don't agree, then they will find another way. ”

Li Ce raised his eyebrows and said:

"Now it will take more than half a month for the fifth brother to rush back to Kyoto from Zhongzhou, and Lin Xiang, the old fox, must have other ways, so the two of us will turn around, temporarily cooperate with Lin Xiang to bewitch them, and then help the fifth brother delay their calculations."

"That's it!" Li Hui opened his mouth slightly, and suddenly realized.

"Of course!" Li Ce raised his head, said proudly, pinched a snack and threw it up, and easily caught it with his mouth.

"Then are we going to visit the ancestor tomorrow?" A gleam appeared in Li Hui's eyes.

"No, Lin Xiang, an old fox, is easy to be suspicious, so we have to pretend to be a little bit like it." (End of chapter)
