Chapter 377 ; Retreat

The moment his words fell, everyone's hearts were shocked.

Although they knew that today's dynasty would be dissolved, and nine times out of ten they would talk about the abolition of the prince, they never expected that the person who first proposed this matter was actually the prince himself.

You must know that everything the prince did in the past was to make the crown prince's position stable, and he did a lot of stupid things for this.

He cares very much about the position of the crown prince, which is known to all the courts.

Now he actually took the lead in begging for the abolition of the crown prince, which made many people turn their heads and whisper to the people around them to ask if they had heard it wrong.

And the King of Qi and the King of Chu also looked suspicious and misheard at this time.

If you want to say that the people who know the prince here, they are the only ones, even Emperor Zhaowu does not know the prince as well as them.

After all, Emperor Zhaowu didn't know about many private confrontations between the three brothers.

Just like those courtiers thought, the crown prince has always regarded his position as a prince.

Now he actually took the initiative to ask for the abolition of the prince, which is simply a fantasy.

"There's a problem!"

Almost at the same time, the idea crossed their minds.

Sure enough, in the next moment, Cao Guogong stood up.

"Your Majesty, the minister feels that although the prince is at fault in this incident, it is not so, and he has to explain to the people of the world, not only the way to abolish the prince."

Speaking of Cao Guogong, since he was marginalized that time, Cao Guogong's influence in the court is also declining rapidly.

Over the years, Cao Guogong has long been different from what it used to be, especially after he completely entered the prince's faction, he has been a little difficult in the court.

A courtier who has lost his favor with the emperor, plus a person who is still in the prince's faction.

The people of the faction of the King of Qi and the King of Chu didn't wait to see him, and he was not accepted by the Shi faction by nature, as a military general.

Among the military generals and nobles, he was the first person to publicly express his side, and the nobles naturally didn't want to move around with him.

After all, if this is misunderstood by others, isn't it very troublesome?

Because of this situation, today's Cao Guogong, although he is still a Guogong, has begun to gradually marginalize in the court, and no one usually moves.

Naturally, he is not so well-informed about the news outside.

Therefore, he didn't know in advance about Shen Huan's resignation, and the matter of the abolished prince that the big guy already knew in his heart.

When Prince Shicai was facing those people's targeting, he also stood up to refute it, and even wondered why those people from the prince's faction, who were very fierce in the past, were so silent today.

But now, when the prince actually said such a thing, he realized that he seemed to have missed important information.

Combined with the strange atmosphere of Chengtianmen today, as well as the abnormality of those guys in the prince's faction, he was shocked in his heart.

The prince must not be abolished, and the one who has abolished the prince since ancient times can have a good end?

He didn't want his grandson to be in danger, so he had to keep the crown prince no matter what.

And as he stood up, some old ministers without factions also stood up and said that it was not advisable to abolish the prince, especially some older officials on the side of the Ministry of Rites, who were even more resolute.

"Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is at fault this time, it is far from being deposed."

Meng Xuancheng also stood up, and he was also one of those who firmly did not support the abolition of the crown prince.

"The prince of a country has a great stake, how can he be deposed lightly? I am afraid that this will cause shocks in the government and the opposition, and please think twice. ”

"Please think twice."

More than a dozen ministers came forward to express their support for the abolition of the crown prince.

And those people from the prince's faction who saw this scene were not silent at this time, and they all stood up and seconded the proposal.

Don't look at the fact that they were all silent just now, it's because they haven't figured out the specific situation yet, and they don't know if the prince is really going to be abolished.

But in the current situation, it seems that there are many people who do not support the abolition of the prince, especially Meng Xuancheng and Cao Guogong are opposed.

So they were not silent one by one, and at the same time, they couldn't help but admire the prince in their hearts.

It seems that this incident has made their master grow a lot.

Look, this is all learned to retreat as advance.

Thinking about the words that the prince took the initiative to depose the crown prince just now, they felt that this was the prince's means of retreating.

After all, when he said it himself, he said it to others, and the meaning was very different.

I said it myself, it was somewhat with the meaning of knowing the mistake and wanting to make up for it, naturally I already knew the mistake, and this time the matter was not particularly serious, and his attitude of admitting his mistake was so good, and so many people stood up to help and plead for words.

It really doesn't have to be scrapped.

And if outsiders bring it up, it will be completely opposite, if there are still a large number of people among the courtiers who stand up to support the deposition of the crown prince, then Emperor Zhaowu may really agree.

After all, the emperor's desire to abolish the crown prince is so clear.

At this time, the faces of the kings of Qi and Chu also changed.

I knew that things wouldn't be so easy, and I really underestimated the prince.

King Qi took a deep look at the prince kneeling there, and his heart was a little unwilling.

"It's a good one to retreat."

The king of Chu was also a little impressed by the crown prince at this time.

To be honest, he has never looked up to the crown prince, in his opinion, he just got the crown prince by being born well, and his own ability is very poor, and it can even be said that he is short-sighted and stupid.

It can be seen from the matter to the county lord of Zhaode at the beginning, and then he did so many bad things for Zhao Yan'er's woman, and he didn't have any brains at all.

However, today's performance of the prince surprised him very much, and even said that he was surprised.

"It seems that this incident has made him grow a lot, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of changes in the future."

The King of Chu has changed his mentality towards the crown prince a little, and he no longer cares about it as much as before.

"I, when did you say that you wanted to abolish the crown prince?"

As soon as Emperor Zhaowu's words came out, the hearts of many people were sinking, especially the people from the respective factions of King Qi and King Chu were the most unwilling.

Having said this, it seems that the position of the prince today cannot be abolished.

And when Emperor Zhaowu said this, his eyes glanced at Huo Jingzhi and Fang Qiao without a trace.

These two are his most trusted courtiers, and for some reason, he is also very worried about this incident, and the two will have some different thoughts in their hearts.

However, whether it was Huo Jingzhi or Fang Qiao, the two of them looked very calm, and they didn't see any thoughts at all.

Emperor Zhaowu really wanted to do the matter of abolishing the crown prince, and even yesterday he thought about whether to take this opportunity to directly depose the crown prince, but after thinking about it, he felt that this time was not appropriate.

No, today he planned to take a look at the situation first, and the result was just as he thought, there were still many old stubborns in the court who did not agree to depose the crown prince.
