Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Prince's Struggle for the Throne

The ministers of the court looked terrified, they did not expect him to have such a thunderous method.

Li Yi has long known that everyone may not be sincere to him, so he secretly formed his own army.

Now that he has been exposed to everyone, many crimes have long been unable to make him a generation of Ming Jun, so it is better to die in the net.

Although Li Chengzhou in the corner didn't say a word, he also gave the general a look at this moment.

At this time, the general's face was tense, and then he snorted coldly and strode in front of Li Yi.

"How can a man who has sinned so much be worthy to be a prince? Today, I will follow the dying edict of the emperor and get rid of those with ill intentions for the great cadres. ”

As soon as the words fell, he turned his head with a resolute face, and then waved his big hand, and countless people suddenly rushed out from all directions.

Suddenly, Li Yi was surrounded by groups.

"Are you still wondering why those rebels didn't show up on time?"

As if seeing Li Yi's thoughts, the general sneered, with a look of victory on his face.

"Those rebels have been exterminated a long time ago, and no one will join you!"

Li Yi's face changed suddenly, his face was solemn, his eyes were sharp, and a wave of anger surged into his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

"You little general dares to act like this, and now that you are openly confronting the crown prince, aren't you afraid of the Zhulian Nine Clans?"

At this moment, Li Yi questioned the general aggressively, but when he saw the playful eyes of the hundreds of officials around him, he suddenly lost confidence in his heart.

At this moment, the other ministers reached a consensus that they had long lost their respect for Li Yi.

"Come on, put Li Yi in prison!"

His iniquity was set before the eyes of the people, and there was no room for quibbling.

"I see which of you dares, I'm the prince!"

Li Yi, who was dying, continued to show off his might, but he was not taken seriously by everyone.

Several guards stepped forward and dragged him away, like dragging a dead dog, without dignity.

Let him shout wantonly, and no one in the court paid attention.

The voice became fainter and weaker, until it was silent, but none of the ministers in the court were saddened by it.

Now that the prince is in prison, the country cannot be without a king for a day.

The eyes of the ministers fell on Li Xuan and Li Heng.

"Now that there is no monarch, there are only two highnesses who can bear such a heavy burden, and this monarch will be produced among the two highnesses, I don't know what the two highnesses plan in their hearts?"

Suddenly, the eyes of the hundred officials focused on the two of them.

Li Hengda recovered from his illness but still looked tired, wearing a court dress loose on his body, and he couldn't see any spirit.

The appearance of illness inevitably made the ministers worried.

I saw Li Heng cough lightly, and then walked in front of everyone.

Forcibly straightened up his rickety body, with a nervous face.

"Your lords are also for the sake of the society, so you naturally have to choose the most suitable person, and the seventh brother is more suitable than me."

He deliberately gave in, but everyone knew in their hearts that if Li Heng didn't want to be the emperor, how could he offend Li Yi in the first place?

Everyone's eyes shifted to Li Xuan's body again.

Li Xuan, who was standing on the side, looked ordinary, without a trace of deliberate respect, as casual and free as before.

"Where is this sixth brother, I only know how to eat, drink and have fun on weekdays, where do I know how to govern the country? Sixth brother still doesn't have to be modest, it's better to let sixth brother come. ”

Li Heng is a soft man, even if he ascends the throne and becomes the emperor one day, he will not deal with him, so Li Xuan will be humble with him.

For a while, the ministers didn't know what to do.

"I don't know what the King of Yongle thinks?"

Suddenly, someone pointed the finger at Li Chengzhou.

He is the king of Yongle, so he naturally has the right to speak.

Hearing this, Li Chengzhou's face showed a look of surprise, and then he stepped forward with a relaxed heart.

"According to what this king sees, the six princes are kind-hearted, and they follow the concubine to eat fast and pray for the blessing of the country on weekdays, and he is a person with a pure heart, so it is not too much to hand over the Jiangshan Sheji to him."

Li Chengzhou boasted about Li Heng in front of everyone, and praised his conduct, which also made the line of supporting the Six Princes inexplicably have a better impression of Li Chengzhou.

But Li Chengzhou changed his words next.

"However, when it comes to Li Yi, he is hateful, he actually poisoned the six princes, and now his body is not as good as before, when the six princes ascend the throne, the ministers can help the six princes to recruit the harem, and they may be able to have a son and a half daughter, but now that the body is bones, it is also a little difficult to smoothly extend the heir."

Li Chengzhou sighed with a regretful face, but there was a trace of indifference in his heart.

Li Heng is just a pawn of the minister, if he has reigned for many years and cannot have his own heirs, it will be difficult to inherit the throne.

And he just said that he was sighing for Li Heng, but he was also secretly conveying a message to everyone present.

Now Li Heng has eaten away at his body after being poisoned, and his body has long been hollowed out, and it is difficult to conceive an heir even if he recovers from a serious illness.

Li Heng originally showed a smile on his face, but at this time, the smile gradually stiffened.

There was a trace of anger in his eyes, and he looked at Li Chengzhou with resentment, but he didn't dare to do anything to him.

And Li Xuan on the side looked lively, and after thinking about it, could it be that Li Chengzhou wanted to promote him as the emperor?

Suddenly, Li Xuan understood what Li Chengzhou meant to him before.

It turned out that Li Chengzhou did not plan to support Li Heng to become the new emperor at all, and wanted him to succeed to the throne.

"Although the Seven Princes eat, drink and have fun on weekdays, they also know how to be proportional in the face of major rights and wrongs, so it is better to make the Seven Princes the emperor."

Some ministers changed their concepts, and they weighed the pros and cons to find a puppet, and Li Xuan happened to be suitable.

What does a prince who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun do when he succeeds to the throne as the new emperor? It's not that they are left to the mercy of their powerful ministers.

"That's not going to work!"

Suddenly, Li Chengzhou stood up.

He confronted the ministers, and then immediately turned against them.

"Li Xuan eats, drinks and has fun with this king all day long, where does he know what way to govern the country? If you make him emperor, who will be able to have fun with this king in the future? ”

He openly opposed the appointment of Li Xuan as the new emperor, and these words were right in the heart, although the ministers did not show a trace on their faces, their hearts were already happy.

"If the Seventh Prince becomes the new emperor, he will also shoulder the responsibility, with the assistance of our ministers, he will definitely be a generation of Ming Jun, as for the prince, don't have fun all day long, it's better to be more pragmatic."

A minister came forward to speak for Li Xuan, and Li Chengzhou knew that everything was going smoothly according to plan.

Just when everyone wanted to make a decision, a minister walked behind him.

"The old minister has done his best for the great cadres and served for more than 40 years, and the old ministers who are saying today have also considered in their hearts, and now they can inherit the throne not only the six princes and the seventh princes, have you forgotten the nine princes?"
