Just half a month after Xiao Changfeng and Zhao Chengji quarreled in Wangyue Tower, Yushi participated in Zhao Chengji in the court, arrogant, perfunctory political affairs, and a series of crimes such as revenge against courtiers with different political views.

For a time, many important ministers stood up to support Yushi.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse endured a burst of coughing and looked at Zhao Chengji in disappointment.

"I can't imagine that you have been on the crown prince for a few days and have caused so much criticism?"

"Please let the emperor know clearly," Zhao Chengji knelt down and said, "After my son became the crown prince, he was strict with himself every day, and he was conscientious in dealing with the government and government, and he didn't dare to slack off." ”

"Erchen really doesn't know where these groundless charges come from!"

"The facts are all in front of you, and you dare to say that you don't know where they came from?"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse became more and more disappointed with Zhao Chengji, who refused to admit his mistake.

"From today onwards, you will be grounded in the East Palace for reflection, and if you can't wake up in a day, you won't go to court again!"

"The Emperor's ......"

Zhao Chengji wanted to say something, but his father didn't want to hear any of his explanations, so he hurriedly got up and retreated from the court and left the Jinluan Treasure Palace.

The sixth prince, Zhao Chengli, stood in the middle of the ministers, and when he saw Zhao Chengji kneeling on the ground and was at a loss, a smile of victory appeared on his face.

It's just that I was careless and let you take advantage of the loophole, so you have a chance to ascend to the position of the crown prince.

Now that I've been enjoying it for three or four months, it's time to step down and make way for Xian!

The news that the crown prince was grounded by the emperor for reflection soon spread throughout the capital.

Many people think it is incredible, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the one who led the border guards to defeat Fanbang and surrender, how could he perfunctory political affairs and take revenge?

"How could it be?" There are people on the street, "The prince is a meritorious person, but some people are proud of their merits by nature......"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that day, no, when it was still the triumph of the Eighteenth Prince, I once saw him on the street, and my intuition is that he is not the kind of person who is arrogant!"

"Who's feeling is 100% accurate? Besides, knowing people and faces but not hearts, and we haven't worked with the crown prince, can it be that so many ministers agree with the impeachment of the imperial history, will it be fake? ”

"That is, one or two ministers said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was arrogant, and he might be holding revenge, but what about so many ministers, it is impossible for so many people to frame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together!"

With the one-sided discussion of the people on the street, more and more people think that Zhao Chengji is not qualified for the position of prince, and the emperor should consider another candidate.

As a result, the six princes and the ninth princes, who were popular in the past, were once again seen by everyone.

In the palace of the Six Princes.

Zhao Chengli listened to the report of his subordinates, and his face was cloudy.

He threw the teacup in his hand, "I worked hard, but I let Lao Jiu pick up a cheap one with Bai." ”

"Sixth Prince, this is inevitable, don't be too angry." The strategist Sun Chao poured him a new cup of tea.

"But I'm not convinced, that guy can't do anything, and he actually follows me to enjoy it!" Zhao Chengji was furious.

"Sixth Prince, you have now encircled Xiao Xiaohou, and his strength is no longer comparable to that of the Nine Emperors, he is just making a name for himself, and he really can't make any big waves!"

"And ......," Sun Chao reminded, "it is not easy for the emperor to think that we are manipulating behind the scenes. ”

"There's some truth to what you're saying."

Zhao Chengli was persuaded by Sun Chao, "In the past, Zhao Chengji was arrogant, wasn't it because he fought side by side with Xiao Changfeng, and Xiao Changfeng was used to standing by his side." ”

"It's because he doesn't cherish it, he obviously has a right-hand man like Xiao Changfeng, but he wants to covet someone's wife who has not passed through the door, it's really self-inflicted!"

"But no," Sun Chao said, "Zhao Chengji is cocooning himself. ”

"Then again," Zhao Chengli looked at Sun Chao with admiration, "Master Sun, how did you find out that Zhao Chengji had that kind of thought for Su Nianyun?" ”

"Don't hide it from the six princes, as early as the day when the emperor used marriage to test Zhao Chengji, I guessed it, but I was suffering from no evidence at that time, so I kept secretly observing ......"

Later, Sun Chao really observed that Zhao Chengji repeatedly made Xiao Changfeng angry because of Su Nianyun's matter.

Even this time, the most outrageous thing is that he forced Xiao Changfeng to cancel his marriage with Princess Nianyun, and forced Xiao Changfeng to marry Princess Shunyang instead.

Sun Chao took advantage of such an outrageous incident to successfully help his master win Xiao Changfeng's surrender.

"Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass!"

Zhao Chengli sighed, but with doubts.

"It's just that I don't understand, why does Su Nianyun, the daughter of the Queen Mother, have such a great magic power, so that Zhao Chengji and Xiao Changfeng are so obsessed?"

"Sixth Highness, no matter what charm this Su Nianyun has, in short, her charm is exactly the benefit."

Sun Chao said, "Now that Xiao Xiaohou has voted for us, we can continue to persuade Da Xiaohou on this condition." ”

Zhao Chengli said, "Are you really sure? How many times have we been to Xiao Hu's place before, and he has never let go. ”

"Sixth Highness, it used to be before, in the past, Xiao Hu and Xiao Changfeng fought to the death in the court, aren't they also relieved now?"

"Xiao Changfeng saved Xiao Lei on the battlefield, this is a great grace for Xiao Hu, Xiao Hu no longer targets Xiao Changfeng in the court, this is something that everyone can see."

"Therefore, we have successfully won over Xiao Changfeng, even if we can't win over Xiao Hu, he won't fight against us."

"Makes sense!"

After listening to Sun Chao's analysis, Zhao Chengli suddenly became transparent.

"Sun Moushi, I really can't live without you by my side!"

Sun Chao smiled, "I am the advisor of the Sixth Highness, and naturally I have to think long-term for the Sixth Highness everywhere, which is what I should do." ”

"And ......"

Sun Chao reminded Zhao Chengli, "I heard that Princess Nianyun is going to re-treat Xiao Lei's throat soon, and it is said that she will open her neck, which is very dangerous......"

"I think it is necessary for Your Highness Sixth Highness to go and inquire in person, and if possible, find a way to delay this operation."

"Why is that?"

"Sixth Highness, Duke Nianyun wants to reopen Xiao Lei's neck, which is a very dangerous thing in itself, if Xiao Lei dies because of this, it is difficult to guarantee that Xiao Hu will not fight Xiao Changfeng again."

"So, I mean, don't let Princess Nianyun do this until you are completely seated as the crown prince."

"Otherwise, no one can predict what unimaginable things will happen!"

I have to say that Sun Chao's worry was right.

However, despite his resourcefulness and strategizing, it is a pity that the speed of getting information seems to be a little slower.

Because at this time today, Su Nianyun was already operating on Xiao Lei's neck.
