Chapter 157: The Abolished Prince

When the prince and Suo Etu heard this, they were immediately frightened, the prefect of Suzhou had already arrived in the capital, and he was arranged outside the palace by the eldest brother.

Only two words popped up in their minds at the moment: It's over!

The emperor looked at the prince and Suo Etu, who were pale faces, and knew that what the eldest brother said should be true, as for the fourth elder brother, he was afraid that he would also be involved, if the eldest brother was allowed to continue, I am afraid that the royal face would be lost.

"Shut up!" The emperor stood up from the throne and yelled at the eldest brother.

The emperor roared, and no one dared to speak anymore, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely suffocating, and the ministers lowered their heads one after another, praying for the end of today's court meeting as soon as possible.

Some of the princes watched the play, some were afraid that they would fall into it, and some were worried that they would suffer because of it.

After a long while, the emperor waved his hand to the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty with some anger: "Everyone Aiqing will disperse the court!" Princes stay! ”

The ministers were relieved and couldn't wait to leave the place where it was right and wrong.

The princes followed the emperor back to the Heart Cultivation Hall with their own hearts, and the palace maids were called out by Liang Gonggong after bringing tea in.

The emperor's face sank on the throne, and he raised his eyes and swept his sons, except for the fifth child, who was quite safe, none of the others were worry-free.

The emperor was silent for a long time before he finally spoke, "Big brother, you go and bring the Suzhou prefect into the palace." ”

The eldest brother suddenly understood, got up and walked to the outside of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and gave an order to a eunuch, and the eunuch ran quickly in the direction of the noon gate.

After the eldest brother finished his order, he didn't dare to delay, and walked back to the Heart Cultivation Hall quickly.

After just a moment's effort, the faces of everyone in the Heart Cultivation Hall became ugly compared to Fang Cai, especially the crown prince, who looked even more panicked, and it seemed that he had been reprimanded by the emperor.

After seeing the prince's face, the eldest brother couldn't help but snickered in his heart, but his face didn't show any hint and he still remained calm.

About two moments later, the eunuch walked into the Heart Cultivation Hall with a middle-aged man dressed in gray cloth.

After the man entered the Palace of Nourishing Hearts, he first saluted the emperor, and then saluted all the elder brothers, "Zhang Binghuai, the prefect of Suzhou, has seen the emperor, the crown prince, the eldest elder brother, the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, the seventh elder brother, the eighth elder brother, the ninth elder brother, and the tenth elder brother. ”

The emperor's gaze swept over Lord Zhang, nodded and motioned for him to get up, and asked with some confusion: "Lord Zhang, is what the eldest brother played true?" ”

Zhang Binghuai replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, what the eldest brother played is true, the prince did rob a folk girl in Suzhou!" Wei Chen was entrusted with the excerpt and handed it over to the fourth elder brother, but somehow the excerpt came to Master Suo? ”

When the prince heard this, he turned his head abruptly and stared at Zhang Binghuai, and the fourth elder brother was even more stunned.

Zhang Binghuai also met the prince's gaze without fear, and the prince was angry, "Lord Zhang, you are a bloody squirt!" ”

Zhang Binghuai ignored it and continued to report to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the prince's snatching of the people's daughters is true, Weichen has seen it with his own eyes, and the local people in Suzhou have also witnessed it, and this matter has spread all over Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places!" If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can send someone to the local street in Suzhou to ask someone casually, and he will definitely know the answer. ”

As soon as the prince heard this, he hurriedly got up from his seat and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to the emperor, "Emperor Ama, your son is wronged!" What kind of identity does a son have, how could he do such a thing?! Ask the emperor Ama to see what is going on! ”

The eldest brother snorted coldly, and said in an unkind tone: "Prince, the facts are in front of you, why do you have to quibble!" ”

Zhang Binghuai arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something that can prove that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to Suzhou to rob the people's daughter!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Binghuai took out a piece of jade pendant from his cuff and put it in front of the emperor, the emperor took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, and the jade pendant was engraved with the word "Ren", which was given to the prince by the emperor a long time ago.

After the prince saw the jade pendant, his face turned pale, "Emperor Ama, this."

The emperor threw the jade pendant on the prince, and said to the prince in a stern tone: "Prince, do you still have to quibble? ”

As soon as the emperor's words came out, the prince's whole body immediately collapsed on the ground, his eyes were empty and godless, and he seemed to have lost his soul.

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and no one dared to say anything.

The emperor looked at the crown prince, glanced at the other princes, and finally fell on the fourth elder brother, "Fourth elder brother, did you give Suo Etu that excerpt from Lord Zhang?" ”

When the fourth elder brother heard the emperor ask, he immediately stood up and saluted the emperor: "Emperor Ama, it was the son of the son who gave the excerpt to the son, but the son of the son really didn't know the content of the excerpt. ”

When the emperor heard this, he frowned and looked at the fourth elder brother, the emperor knew that the fourth elder brother and the prince were very close on weekdays, if he didn't know about it, how could he give the fold of the complaint to Suo Etu!

The emperor's heart is very complicated at the moment, and thinking of the corruption of the princelings more than a year ago, he has some doubts for a while, whether the prince in front of him, who he personally taught, can really be worthy of the throne.

In recent years, the princes have done everything in a hurry, and it is difficult to have the demeanor of a prince, and the princes have gradually become adults, and there are many princes who have surpassed the prince's ability.

After thinking about it and weighing it, the emperor made a bold decision: he decided to abolish the crown prince, who had been a prince for more than 20 years, and let him think about himself for a few years.

Several princes sitting in the hall couldn't help but glance at the prince kneeling on the ground when they saw the emperor's contemplative appearance.

The prince's face was full of despair, and he knew that today was completely planted.

After a long time, the emperor raised his eyes and looked at the crown prince, "Since I succeeded to the throne, I have been conscientious in government affairs in order to ensure the stability of the Qing Dynasty, but the prince I have appointed is arrogant and inappropriate. I am extremely sad when I think of this, in order to ensure the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty, I will depose the second elder brother Yinren as the crown prince from now on, and ban the Zongren Mansion; The fourth elder brother Yinzhen helped to abuse, and he was grounded in the Four Baylor Mansion, and he was not allowed to go out unless he was called! ”

As soon as these words came out, several princes present showed shocked expressions on their faces, especially the crown prince, he couldn't believe that the emperor had abolished his crown prince, his eyes were suddenly terrified, he knelt on the ground and wailed at the emperor and said: "Huang Ama! Erchen knows it's wrong! Huang Amma."

The emperor flicked the sleeves of his robe and impatiently interrupted the prince's cry: "Enough! You stay in the Zongren Mansion and meditate on your own mistakes, think about your mistakes! ”

Everyone held their breath and looked at the scene in front of them, the fourth elder brother had made a big mistake this time, and he knelt on the ground unwillingly to ask the emperor for his guilt: "The sons and daughters respectfully obey the emperor Ama Holy Emperor!" ”

Yinqi's expression was a little incredulous, why did Huang Ama abolish the crown prince because of the prince's robbery of the people's daughter, he was about to get up and ask for a favor, but he was pulled by the sleeve of the third elder brother on the side, Yinqi turned his head to look at the third elder brother, and saw the third elder brother shaking his head at him.
