Chapter 33: The Prince's Controversy (Part II)
For many days after that, neither Mingda nor King Jin came to Luo Yingxuan, and I spent my days in the cage appointed by my father, and I was in fear all day long.
To everyone's surprise, at the beginning of October, his father suddenly issued an edict to change the title of King Wei to the King of Shunyang, and ordered him to immediately move to Yunxiang County in Junzhou.
As soon as this edict came out, the Manchu Dynasty was shocked, and the palace was in an uproar!
However, my hanging heart can finally be put down. The battle for the crown prince did not stop because of the demotion of King Wei, and I have no way of knowing who the prince is in the end, but as long as it is not King Wei.
When she saw Mingda again, she showed deep concern. Since I heard that Wei Wangtai had been ordered to move to Junzhou, my heart has been much lighter, and my illness has gradually improved, and my face has become more rosy than a few days ago. In this way, Mingda's haggard is more prominent.
I couldn't help it, took her hand and choked up: "Mingda, for me, let you suffer." Thank you! โ
Mingda looked at me distressedly, and said quietly: "I am not only for you, but also for me, but also for everyone." Jingjing, you don't have to thank me, because I don't have the ability to make my father change his mind. It was my uncle who made the plan to turn things around. โ
Seeing that I was puzzled, Mingda explained: "After the **** went back, I thought about it and felt that since the fourth brother can do such a vicious thing to you now, it is difficult to ensure that he will ascend to the throne of the prince in the future, and he will not โกโก other siblings." The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, so I told Brother Jiu about it. The ninth brother couldn't make a decision, so he ran to find his uncle. โ
It dawned on me. No wonder it is rumored in the palace that before his father issued an edict to depose the King of Wei, the abolished prince Chengqian cried and begged his father and said: "The son is the prince, what else can you ask for?" All this was forced by Tai. Because he was afraid of being murdered by Tai, his sons and ministers tried to find a plan for self-safety. Erchen knew that this was a great crime of plotting against him, but if his father Litai was the new prince, he would fall for his treacherous scheme. If so, there is no hope of survival. He also asked his father to immediately give his son the death penalty, so that he would not be humiliated and die in the future. โ
I savored it in my heart and secretly sighed at the wisdom of the eldest grandson. He took advantage of his father's compassion for the emperor's eldest son, Chengqian, and at the same time grasped the mentality of his father's heart to protect his son, and quietly removed King Wei from the selection of the crown prince. I can be sure that the real mastermind behind Cheng Qian's bitter plan is Lord Changsun. At this time, Cheng Qian had to obey the eldest grandson to save his life.
"Anyway, Jingjing still has to thank Mingda for saving her life. If it weren't for Mingda, the eldest grandson would not have made such a plan. โ
Mingda sighed slightly: "Even if there is no grudge between Jingjing and the fourth brother, my uncle will still find another way to remove the stumbling block of the fourth brother, because the candidate he recommended for the crown prince is the ninth brother." โ
When I heard this, my body trembled slightly, but I didn't expect that being as arrogant as a prince and as smart as King Wei would inevitably become a victim of political fighting. Who will be next? King Wu or King Jin? I couldn't even think about it.
His father quickly announced his decision to everyone in the world. In December of the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, King Zhi of Jin was named the crown prince and granted amnesty to the world at the same time. From his father's choice this time, it can be seen that he hopes that the country will be worry-free, and the painstaking and expectation of both children and daughters.
At this point, the dispute between the princes that caused a sensation in the previous dynasty has finally settled. I can finally put my mind at ease and continue to live my day in Daxing Palace carefully.
