Li Yunxing freshened up and changed into a four-clawed python robe before going to Weiyang Palace comfortably.

It was close to noon, and the sun was scorching.

Liu Zhongqing and the four of them were still reluctant to leave, kneeling at the gate of Weiyang Palace, just to get a sight.

Li Yunxing smiled disdainfully when he saw these four people, these old things have no new tricks, they kneel and kowtow every time, which is really boring.

He got down from the sedan chair with lazy steps and said condescendingly: "A few of them are already a lot old, why bother? When my father wanted to see you, he would have called you in. ”

When Liu Zhongqing heard this, he was even more resentful in his heart.

"We have something important to report to Emperor Wu, and we also ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to abide by himself and not interfere." Liu Zhongqing said coldly, his eyes staring directly at the prince.

Li Yunxing's face sank, and he scolded sharply: "This palace is the crown prince of the prison country, and there is no palace that cannot be asked about the affairs of the palace!" Even if you are sent to the Yellow Spring, it is also the duty of the prince of this palace. ”

This sentence made the four old ministers change color.

"Presumptuous! Emperor Wu Shengming, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince started killing when he first held power, how can he be compared with Emperor Wu? ”

Ling Huhong angrily reprimanded, and the other three old ministers also echoed it, expressing their condemnation of the prince.

Li Yunxing snorted coldly when he heard this, and sneered: "If this palace wants to do it, you have already been dead for a long time now, why talk nonsense?" Do you think you'll be able to get out of the palace alive today? ”

The faces of the four old ministers changed slightly, but Ling Huhong still said strongly: "Does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to murder the ministers?" We are important ministers of the court, does the prince dare to risk the world? ”

"Jinxi, palm sword!"

Li Yunxing asked Jinxi to hand the sword to him, and he was going to open this killing ring today.

He glanced at the four of them with a cold gaze, and said coldly: "Whoever blocks the way of this palace is a rebellious thief, and this palace will be killed!" ”

Just when the two sides were tense, Emperor Wu suddenly summoned them to enter together.

Ling Huhong, who originally had his heart hanging in his throat, was relieved at this time, he was really a little afraid of this tyrant.

The four of them quickly followed the messenger and entered the hinterland of Weiyang Palace.

Li Yunxing followed at the end of the line, he raised his eyes and showed a cold look in his eyes.

However, I didn't see Emperor Wu for two days, and I had lost a lot of weight for convenience, and it was difficult to recover from severe illnesses.

But his gaze was still as sharp as a blade, and the domineering spirit of the long-lived emperor had not diminished in the slightest.

Li Yunxing is very clear about this.

"Emperor Wu, long live, long live, long live!"

"Ahem...... Zhong Aiqing get up......"

Liu Zhongqing was the first to react and asked Emperor Wu with concern, "Your Majesty, is the dragon body still healthy?" ”

Emperor Wu waved his hand, did not answer Liu Zhongqing's question, but looked at Li Yunxing.

"Why is the prince here so late today?"

Sure enough, Emperor Wu knew everything.

He deliberately did not see Liu Zhongqing and the four of them, and only after the prince arrived, did he summon them into the palace together.

"Father, my son couldn't sleep last night, worried about his father's condition, so I prayed for you all night at the Shenmingtai, and only came back from the high temple at the end of the day." Li Yunxing replied respectfully.

"You are filial, and I am very relieved." Emperor Wu nodded with satisfaction, "But your actions are inappropriate, you are now the crown prince of the prison country, and you should put the country's society first." ”

Li Yunxing hurriedly lowered his head, "Erchen respectfully obeys the teachings. ”

The father and son had a very happy conversation, completely leaving Liu Zhongqing and the four of them aside, allowing them to stand awkwardly.

"Your Majesty!" At this time, Ling Huhong finally couldn't hold it back.

He knelt on the ground again and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers implore Emperor Wu to retract his order, and don't let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince supervise the country, so as not to disturb the dynasty and affect the society of the country!" ”

When Liu Zhongqing heard this, they knelt down one after another.

Emperor Wu glanced at them with a blank look and said softly, "Are you questioning the crown prince's state?" ”

This sentence is full of coercion.

Suddenly, the four of them had difficulty breathing, and their foreheads were covered with cold sweat.

They didn't dare to talk any more.

Emperor Wu's cold gaze moved to Liu Zhongqing, "Liu Zaifu also thinks that the crown prince shouldn't be regent?" ”

Liu Zhongqing hesitated for a moment and said: "The prince is inexperienced, so he should be obscure and learn more about governing the country." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was arrogant, and when he first took power, he dismissed half of the officials of Zongzheng Temple and returned to their hometowns, and even extorted money from them."

"Yesterday, there was a killing spree, slaughtering hundreds of people. The unprecedented brutality chills the family. The people were terrified, and they all said that the prince was a god in the next life. ”

"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only does not want to repent, but he also wants to draw his sword against our old ministers in front of Weiyang Palace, we have been officials for decades, and I have never done anything unfavorable to the court and the royal family! Today, in any case, I would like to ask Your Majesty to re-establish the Prince. ”

Liu Zhongqing was very nervous while counting the prince's crimes, while sweating on his forehead.

Although there are few princelings, they are all the elite of the elite, and they all support the prince, and the emperor clearly favors the prince.

If this impeachment is not successful and the crown prince is not overthrown, there will be endless troubles!

After listening to Liu Zhongqing's words, many old ministers nodded in agreement: "Prime Minister Liu Cheng is very right. If the prince continues to be powerful, there will definitely be trouble. I beg your Majesty to choose another king. ”

Emperor Wu didn't rush to ask the prince for the crime, but only said lightly: "Everyone, don't be impatient. I'm not sure if the prince is really as mad as you describe, and I'll have to figure out the ins and outs before making a decision. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

All the ministers bowed down one after another.

Emperor Wu bowed slightly, and turned to Li Yunxing, who was standing at the end, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, can you hear the complaint of the courtiers?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the sons and daughters know."

"Is there any explanation?" Emperor Wu's eyes were sharp, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife.

Li Yunxing raised his head, straightened his waist, and said in a deep voice: "Father, the son is not a person who does not dare to take responsibility, if the son kills innocent people indiscriminately, then how the emperor will deal with it, the son has no complaints!" ”

"You mean, there's something else going on?"

"Exactly." Li Yunxing raised his head, his tone was firm, and his words were sonorous.

Emperor Wu frowned, looked at Li Yunxing coldly, and his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Good. Since you have reason to refute it, then come forward and listen to all of you. ”

"Son's command."

Li Yunxing stepped forward and faced the ministers.

After looking around at everyone for a moment, he said loudly: "Lord Liu accused his sons of the three crimes of arrogance, abuse of power, and murder, and this palace broke this matter and crumpled it, let Lord Liu hear about it." ”

"The first sin, arrogance."

"Wu Shujing, the former Zongzheng Temple, is in charge of the affairs of the imperial family, and he should know best who is respected inside this palace, seeing that the emperor is seriously ill and vomiting blood, but he doesn't know that he is safe with the dragon body, and forcibly breaks into the palace to face the saint, does Lord Liu know what kind of crime this is?"

"Trespassing on Weiyang Palace without being summoned is a crime that should be punished."
