Chapter 63: The crown prince wields his power and shocks the court

"Who are you? Report the name of the official position, the cold light sword of the palace, and do not kill the nameless person. ”

Listening to the prince's calm voice, all the courtiers were already silently mourning for that man in their hearts. Who doesn't know, the more the prince wants to kill, the calmer he is.

"Minister, the minister is Wang Jiutian, a bachelor of the Wupin Hanlin Academy. Even if you are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you can't kill innocents indiscriminately! ”

It was Xiao Guogong who just promoted him. He naturally wants to stand on Xiao Guogong's side and behave well, maybe Xiao Guogong will transfer him out of the Hanlin Academy and give him a powerful official.

"It turned out to be you, just half a month after taking office, I thought that I would be able to worship the prime minister in the future, and in the name of my father's close minister, I began to accept the worship of merchants, Xiao Guogong is not so bold as you, wantonly looting the people's fat and people's ointment, but he has no guilt!"

Xiao Guogong listened and did not refute. This kind of words, why do you have to take it from yourself. That's the work of a reckless man.

"Minister, minister, minister wronged."

Wang Jiutian knelt on the ground. How could the prince know about such an unknown petty official as him? He's obviously doing it very secretively.

The other courtiers were also shocked when they heard it, and how many courtiers dared to say that they had clean sleeves and no selfishness? Who doesn't have a little secret?

Although the water is clear, there are no fish, but if you touch the fish in the mixed water, you will touch yourself, it will be too miserable.

"Wronged? Well, this reason is too troublesome, this palace will be changed, I don't know that your father is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, dare to name you after the sky, do you know that the sky of the Yunxiao Kingdom is the father of the palace? ”

"Minister......" Wang Jiutian wanted to say that his name was because when his father named him, he took Jiutian, and he didn't come up with a good name, so he simply called him Jiutian. It's a pity that he can't say it anymore.

The guards immediately entered the hall and carried Wang Jiutian's body down, even the blood stains were cleaned, and a human life disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if nothing had happened here just now.

The court was silent, and everyone lowered their heads, for fear of being seen by His Royal Highness the Prince.

Xiao Guogong didn't even mess up, he didn't say anything, smart chess pieces are useful, stupid chess pieces deserve to die.

The cold light sword was left by the former emperor, and the current emperor rewarded Jun Lingyun when he went to the battlefield when he was twelve years old.

Needless to say, there is a reason, but there is no reason, if the cold light sword has to kill anyone, it can only be a dumb person eating coptis.

Will the indiscriminate killing of innocent princes ruin his reputation? Everyone is dead, and the prince's reputation is ruined, what's the use?

This is the reason why he has not personally confronted the prince for so many years. If he wants to make a move, he must hit it with one blow, so that the prince has no room to turn over.

"Father, since the position of the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy is vacant, the son of the minister recommends the original Hanlin Academy to edit the seven products, and Chu Wenhong will succeed him."

This, the courtiers looked at each other, and they did not avoid their relatives? That Chu Wenhong, isn't he the prince's future second brother-in-law? The prince is really, above board!

"Your Majesty, when selecting officials, you should first evaluate your political performance, and then you will be promoted by the officials."

Xiao Guogong spoke out to stop it, the Chu family is still the help of the crown prince, and before they are brought over, the growth of the Chu family will not be beneficial to them.

"Then Xiao Guogong, do you want all the officials you recommended before to resign?"

Jun Lingyun and Xiao Guogong were rarely in the court before, so-for-tat, the courtiers did not dare to come out.

"The prince's proposal, I agreed!" In the past few days, the emperor has been thinking about it day and night, thinking about Xiao Guogong's hand, which is really too wide. It's time to give the prince some power of his own.

"Your Majesty!"

Xiao Guogong was about to say more, but was interrupted by the emperor in a cold voice:

"I thought that I could still call the shots in the appointment and dismissal of a five-grade official."

Xiao Guogong and the emperor looked at each other for a moment, lowered their eyebrows, it is indeed not worth fighting against the emperor in the court for a five-grade position: "The emperor naturally wants to appoint and dismiss whomever he wants." ”

"Ministers, Dogs, Your Majesty Longen, His Royal Highness Prince Xie." General Chu stepped forward and knelt down and thanked his son.

At this time, Jun Lingyun announced another piece of news:

"This palace has been promised by my father, this palace and Chu Yunxi will get married within three months, Qin Tianjian will choose a date, and the Ministry of Rites will cooperate. In the past few days, the palace has kept the crown princess in the palace to learn the rules. The palace and the crown princess are one husband and wife, and in the future, whoever dares to impeach the crown princess will be like impeaching the palace. ”

Jun Lingyun's words caused a circle of ripples for a while, the prince's wedding, which was supposed to start next spring, was suddenly advanced, so isn't the position of the crown princess a certainty, it is Chu Yunxi's? Others can't think about it.

Some courtiers couldn't help but look at Xiao Guogong, who didn't know that the young daughter of the Xiao family liked His Royal Highness the Prince. I don't know what Xiao Guogong plans to do.

A year is a long time and can change a lot of things, but three months is a short time and fleeting.

Even General Chu tried his best to suppress the shock, and he hadn't heard any rumors before. But come to think of it, this is also a good thing, the marriage between Xi'er and the prince has been full of twists and turns, and it can finally be conclusive.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Wei Chen has the courage to return, will it be a little hasty in three months, the minister is afraid that the etiquette is not well arranged, and the princess will be neglected, now there is a drought in many places, and the treasury is empty......"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is much smarter, and his words are humble and polite, for fear that he will also die under the prince's cold light sword.

Mainly, if the treasury is used to arrange disaster relief, there will be no silver, no silver, how can their Ministry of Rites arrange the prince's wedding ceremony?

"That's a matter of the household department, the palace is not young, and it's time to think about the succession. There are three unfilial pieties, no queen is great, within three months, if the palace can not get married, the head of the household book to see. ”

The ministers rolled their eyes in their hearts, although the prince said that he had delayed for a few years in order to wait for Chu Yunxi and Xu, he was only in his twentieth year, which is not a small age.

Besides, it's not that no one suggested that the prince accept a few women to serve first, but the prince himself was unwilling. Now I want to pass on the lineage, and I know that I am in a hurry.

Hubu Shangshu is also Xiao Guogong's person, so it seems that in the years when he was not in the court, Xiao Guogong almost extended his hand to all the departments of the court.

In addition to the corrupt officials and corrupt officials he has killed over the years, there are still many people who need to be solved.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you, you are a strong man! But whenever there is a natural disaster of a great drought, it must be the strength of the whole country to survive safely, and Weichen can't conjure up silver out of thin air. ”

Hubu Shangshu immediately came out to cry poor.

"The duty of the household department is to raise silver taels, fill the treasury, and control the important expenditures of the state. If you feel that you can't do it, you can take the blame and resign now, and this palace will spare your life. Do you still want to continue to be the secretary of the household? ”

Jun Lingyun took a salary from the bottom of the kettle and blocked what Tobe Shangshu was going to say next.

"This, minister." Hubu Shangshu beat a drum in his heart, and secretly raised his eyes to look at Xiao Guogong's instructions, Xiao Guogong shook his head lightly.

Hubu Shangshu could only reply stubbornly: "Minister, the minister must do his best." ”

"That's good, in the face of natural disasters, all ministries must work together to tide over the difficulties."

"Yes!" The ministers bowed their heads.

The emperor sat comfortably on the dragon chair, and when the crown prince went to court, he was much more relaxed, worthy of being the son he cultivated single-handedly.

"The prince handled it properly, it's so good, let's retreat from the court without incident."

"Father, my son still has something to play." Jun Lingyun hugged his fists again.
