In the East Palace, when the crown prince learned that the emperor had sent the king of Chu to Pengcheng, he was very unhappy and his face was very ugly.

"Father Emperor actually sent the fourth child to Pengcheng, what is Father going to do?" After the crown prince finished speaking, his face changed greatly, "Father doesn't want to make a noise, right?" On the surface, let the fourth child go to Pengcheng, but in fact, let the fourth child go to Jinling or Suzhou? ”

"It's possible." King Wei guessed, "However, I think that the main reason why my father sent the fourth child to Pengcheng was to investigate the copper coins. ”

At the mention of copper coins, the prince felt a little uneasy. He asked worriedly, "Eighth brother, there won't be a problem with the copper coin, right?" ”

"Big brother, rest assured, our people are doing it seamlessly, and this matter will not be found on our heads." The problem with Pengcheng's copper coins is because the prince secretly manipulated and reduced the copper content in each copper coin.

The more the prince thought about it, the more worried he became, and his face became more and more solemn.

"The fourth child is not an ordinary person, his father asked him to go to Pengcheng to investigate this matter, he will definitely find something." The crown prince was originally worried about the matter of Jinling, but now he is even more worried about the copper coin. "With the fourth child's ability, it is impossible for him not to find out anything at all."

King Wei felt that what the prince said was very reasonable, and his face became solemn unconsciously.

"The fourth man is insidious and treacherous, maybe he really let him find out something."

"We must not let the fourth child find out." The prince said, his face becoming grim.

When King Wei saw the prince's expression, he instantly understood the prince's intentions.

"Big brother, do you mean to take this opportunity to get rid of the fourth?"

The prince nodded his head and immediately asked, "What do you think?" ”

"That's a good idea." King Wei agreed, "It's a good opportunity for the fourth child to go to Pengcheng, we can take the opportunity to get rid of him, and then we can push his death on someone else, so that my father can't find anything unusual." ”

Seeing that King Wei understood what he meant, the crown prince said with a smile on his face, "That's what I meant." ”

King Wei patted the prince's ass and said, "Big brother is wise." ”

The prince was photographed very happily. He said with a smile on his face: "As long as the fourth child leaves the capital, we will have a thousand chances to get rid of him." ”

King Wei asked, "Big brother, do you want to get rid of the fourth brother on his way to Pengcheng, or wait for him to get rid of him when he arrives in Xuzhou?" ”

The prince didn't think of this. He thought for a while, and then asked King Wei, "What do you think?" ”

"If the fourth brother gets rid of him on the way to Pengcheng, the father will definitely suspect the eldest brother. If you wait for the fourth child to get rid of him when he arrives in Pengcheng, there will be many objects of suspicion. ”

The crown prince felt that King Wei's analysis was very correct, "Then wait for the fourth child to get rid of him when he arrives in Pengcheng." ”

"Big brother, we have to beware of the acting king." King Wei reminded the crown prince, "We thought of taking this opportunity to get rid of the fourth child, and they would have the same idea as the king, maybe they would frame us." ”

"Yes, you're right, you must beware of the acting king." As soon as the acting king was mentioned, the prince's expression immediately became vigilant, "Eighth brother, we can also frame them for acting as kings." ”

King Wei thought for a while and said, "Big brother, we can send someone to assassinate the fourth child on the way to Pengcheng, and then frame it for the acting king, what do you think?" ”

The crown prince smiled and said, "I think so too, how do you say we should frame the acting king?" ”

"Big brother, this matter has to be discussed with the Zhenguo Gong." King Wei said, "With the means of Zhenguo Gong, not only can you get rid of the fourth child, but you can also frame the heads of the acting king and the Marquis of Xuanping." ”

The prince instructed Lu Cong, who was standing aside, to "Go and invite your uncle." ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince."

Before the Duke of Zhenguo arrived at the East Palace, the crown prince had already discussed many ways with the King of Wei to frame the king.

After the Duke of Zhenguo arrived, after listening to the words of the prince and the king of Wei, he said with a smile: "I originally had this plan. ”

Hearing Zhen Guogong say this, King Wei was not surprised at all. He had long guessed that with the character and means of the Duke of Zhenguo, he would never miss a good opportunity to get rid of the King of Chu.

"I will arrange this matter, Your Highness, don't worry about it."

When the prince heard this, he was relieved.

"Uncle, my father has learned about the copper coin, should we stop for the time being."

"I've already informed the other side to ask them to stop for the time being, and wait until the Queen of Chu is resolved." After Zhen Guogong finished speaking, his face suddenly became calm, "How could the matter of copper coins be leaked?" "The matter of the copper coin is obviously very secretive, and it has not been discovered before, why has it been discovered recently, and it is known to the emperor.

The prince shook his head and said, "I don't know, I'm also wondering about this matter, obviously we did it very carefully before, and no one found out." "The copper coin incident is not new, and last year, the prince and his family began to do their own thing.

King Wei speculated: "As far as I know, the copper coins that have been revealed in Pengcheng recently are much worse than before, the previous copper coins can be completely fake, and the recent copper coins are much lighter than before, and it is difficult for people not to find out." Fortunately, there are not many copper coins in this batch, and they have not been circulated to other places, otherwise this matter will become more serious. ”

After hearing this, Zhen Guogong frowned and said, "You mean that someone secretly did something behind our backs?" ”

King Wei bowed slightly: "Someone must have secretly moved his hands and feet for personal gain." ”

"What the eighth brother said is not impossible." The prince said with a calm face, "Uncle, we have to find out, otherwise this person will kill us." ”

"I'll send someone to investigate." Zhen Guogong didn't expect that someone would dare to steal their copper under his nose.

"Guogong, will Pengcheng mix in with the people of the acting king?" King Wei, this is a thief shouting to catch a thief.

The crown prince immediately agreed with King Wei's speculation: "It must be someone who acts as the king." ”

Zhen Guogong also suspected that it was the person who acted for the king, but he thought about it carefully and felt that it was unlikely.

"Not the one who acts as the king." If it is the person who acts for the king, it means that the acting king knows that they are stealing copper, and they will definitely report to the emperor and put them to death.

"If it's not the king's man, it's a traitor among our people." King Wei was not worried that the Zhenguo Guild would find out about him. "Guogong, King Jing is going to Jinling tomorrow, is it really okay?"

"Eighth brother, seventh brother can't afford to turn over the wind and waves." The crown prince didn't take King Jing to heart at all, "He can't do anything when he goes." ”

King Wei didn't think so, with Empress Xie's temperament, she would never let King Jing go to Jinling in vain.

"Big brother, the seventh brother has always been eyeing the position of the crown prince, aren't you afraid that he will make trouble in Jinling City?" If King Jing really can't do anything, then he will never return to the capital like a lost dog. With his cautious temperament, he will definitely make Jinling City full of storms.

"Don't worry, you will never let him come to Jinling City." The prince said, his eyes became fierce, "If he dares to make a fuss in Jinling, then don't blame me for being unkind as a brother." ”

When King Wei heard the prince say this, he didn't say anything more. When King Jing goes to Jinling, he will secretly help King Jing.

"Big brother, why don't I go to Jinling with me." The tenth brother disappeared and has not been found so far, and the king of Wei is worried about Zhao Yao's safety, and he plans to go to Jinling in person. "Although Brother Qi can't come up with any tricks, it's better to be careful about things in Jinling, I'll go over and take a look."

"You want to go to Jinling?" The prince said puzzledly, "The matter over there in Jinling is very safe, and you don't need to go over to see it." ”

"And the fourth, with the fourth child's cautious temperament, he will definitely expect that we will send someone to assassinate him, if he escapes by luck, then the things we did in Jinling are very likely to be discovered by him. To be on the safe side, I think I'd have to go over and check it out. ”

It is not impossible for King Wei to say this, and the crown prince looked at Zhen Guogong, who nodded his head to him.

"Eighth brother, then I will suggest to my father tomorrow that you assist the seventh brother to go to Jinling together, and it just so happens that you can also monitor the seventh brother."

"After His Royal Highness King Wei went to Jinling City, he secretly went to Pengcheng to investigate the theft of copper." Zhen Guogong believed in the ability of the king of Wei, and it was most appropriate for the king of Wei to go to Pengcheng to investigate the theft of copper. If the matter on Pengcheng's side is exposed and can't be hidden, then you can push this matter onto King Wei.
