Chapter 464: The More Trouble It Makes

Li Heng's words were all about staying away from the capital and the center of power, which made Emperor Jingwen quite useful, and at the same time, he felt that this son was too easy.

"No. Now that there is nothing to do in the south, you can stay in the capital with peace of mind, and your father still has an errand to arrange for you to do."

Li Heng immediately looked depressed: "Father, it's okay to wait for the retainers to come back."

"Shut up! You've learned this from Xie Xiuwen all day long?"

Li Heng didn't dare to speak.

The main reason is that I am afraid of affecting the teacher.

When Emperor Jingwen saw him like this, he teased him a little: "Or, why don't you go to the household department for a while to help me enrich my money bag?"

Li Heng's eyes widened: "Father?"

"That's it."

Li Heng: No, are you serious? The household is the territory of the second emperor brother?

Xie Rongzhao and Liu Ruolan were obedient and basically didn't go out much.

Within a few days, news came out that Emperor Jingwen had canonized Concubine Shu as a concubine.

Concubine Shu is one of the four concubines, but when it comes to identity, she is not as valuable as the concubine

Four concubines, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, eighty-one royal wives, etc.

Among the four concubines, the concubine is the leader, in other words, in addition to the queen of the middle palace, that is, the concubine is the most important.

The concubine has two sons, and now the youngest son will be ten years old.

The concubine is the biological mother of the second prince, and now there is no queen in the harem, that is, she is respected.

The second prince was named the blessed king two years ago and gave the mansion

At this time, his biological mother was promoted to a noble concubine, and this political impact can be imagined.

Many people who were still in the wait-and-see stage immediately began to fall to King Fu's side at this time.

It can be said that now even King Fu's house slaves walk with the wind, and the guards at the door are all holding their chins.

King Fu doesn't have much obvious merit now, but in the same way, there is no big mistake, which is equivalent to no merit and no fault, which is obviously an advantage over the great prince who has made a big mistake.

Now that the concubine has the power of the harem, for many courtiers, this is an attitude of the saint.

Elder Zheng Ge, Xie Xiuwen and others have never publicly stated who they are on their side, even if Xie Xiuwen, as the teacher of the Five Princes, has always been very careful about proportion.

In addition to normal teaching, he didn't dare to get too close to the five princes in private, and he didn't care what others thought, anyway, he had always been loyal to the emperor as his own responsibility.

Among the cabinet ministers, there is only one Zhou Ge Lao who is now clearly inclined to King Fu.

It's just that this old man of Zhou Ge has no obvious right to speak in the cabinet, he seems to be ranked before Xie Xiuwen, but in fact, his power in the cabinet is not as great as Xie Xiuwen, and in front of the emperor, he is not as favored as Xie Xiuwen.

Therefore, if the current King Fu wants to win the support of more Wenchen, the first thing he thinks of is Xie Xiuwen.

In addition to Xie Xiuwen's own ability, he was most relied on by the Holy Lord, which was one of the fundamental reasons why King Fu wanted to win him over the most.

Moreover, Xie Xiuwen's son and son-in-law have now made a name for themselves in the court, and I believe that it will not take a few years to rise to the top.

It's a pity that King Fu thinks very well, but it is very difficult to actually operate.

King Fu invited him to a banquet several times, but Xie Xiuwen refused.

King Fu was not a patient person in the first place, and after a few times, he was naturally annoyed.

It was the strategists around him who repeatedly persuaded him, so that he didn't make too much trouble.

"Lord Wang, think about it from another angle, if he doesn't want to come, it won't necessarily be good for us. Now Xie Xiuwen has not leaned towards any of His Highnesses, which means that we still have a chance."

King Fu had a cold face: "Hmph! I don't know what to do! When this king ascends to the throne in the future, he will be destined far away."

"The prince is cautious."

King Fu also realized that he was too imprudent just now, and after glancing left and right, he was relieved

Luckily, there are no outsiders here.

"We can't get in touch with Wenchen for the time being, we can also buy the hearts of some literati first. Now that the Holy Dragon is in good health, the prince can't be too anxious. Let's take it one step at a time, but it's safe."

King Fu twisted his eyebrows, and secretly scolded his father in his heart, why has this dragon body been unharmed?

However, now that he is fledgling, it will not hurt for his father to sit in that position for a few more years.

Among King Fu's henchmen, there are naturally people who are also related to the White Crane Academy, coupled with the support of Zhou Ge Lao, this back and forth, their people have infiltrated into the White Crane Academy, and over time, the reputation of King Fu's virtue and benevolence has spread in the White Crane Academy.

When Xie Rongzhao first heard the news, he was still a little worried.

She really didn't want Cheng Wulang to get involved.

She remembered that there were several brothers and nephews of the Xie family who were also studying in the White Crane Academy, but don't be a mouthpiece for others.

Fortunately, Xie Xiuwen and Cheng Jingzhou had already made arrangements, otherwise, it would be really easy to be used.

Cheng Wulang came back, and it happened that Cheng Jingzhou was also at home, and it was rare for a whole family to have a meal together.

"Gorou, don't get involved in anything related to the court, whether it's articles, poems or strategies, you have to pay more attention, even if you copy things like this, don't get your hands dirty."

"Yes, third brother, I know everything."

"I've heard that many students in your academy are participating in this and are trumpeting the virtues of King Fu, isn't this crazy?"

mentioned this, Cheng Wulang also had an indescribable expression.

"Third brother, somehow, at first, only Mr. Ding Banhui praised His Royal Highness King Fu, and also exaggerated some of King Fu's small kindnesses, and then touted his virtues. I don't want to be involved right now, but the question is, I'm afraid that if my husband gives me such a homework, how will I deal with it?"

Cheng Jingzhou didn't expect King Fu's control of the White Crane Academy to be so high.

"Let me think about this matter, you are not in a hurry to go to the academy tomorrow, let someone help you take leave, just say that your wife is restless here and needs you to take care of it for a few days, and there is no need to say anything else."

"Yes, I listen to the third brother."

Later, Cheng Jingzhou went to Xie Mansion again, and when he came back, his expression was solemn.

When he went to Baihe Academy again, not only did Cheng Wulang ask for leave, but even several children from the Xie family also said they were sick and asked for leave.

Two days later, nearly half of the students in the White Crane Academy asked for leave, and the development of the situation had obviously exceeded the expectations of the mountain chief.

The mountain chief of the White Crane Academy is a student of Zhou Gelao, and the new mountain chief only took office the year before last, and as for the previous mountain chief, he has passed away.

If the former mountain chief is still there, it is estimated that the White Crane Academy will not be allowed to become a victim of the power struggle.
