Chapter 478 The eldest grandson is in charge of the palace

Li Er rolled his eyes at Qin Qiong and said, "Since Qin Qiong has spoken, let's use this name."

"Okay, the plan to catch the traitors has officially begun. Now let's go to the mine. Lao Qin, are the mines ready?" Li Feng said.

Li Er nodded and said: "Everything is ready. Cannons, muskets and grenades are all ready. We are just waiting for His Majesty to go."

"Where are the people nearby?" Li Feng asked again.

Qin Qiong said again: "We have asked them to leave and they will not be back until a few days later."

"Okay, Lao Li, everything is ready now. All we need is Dongfeng." Li Feng said, "And you are Dongfeng. Now let's sleep in the carriage until we arrive tomorrow."

Li Er frowned slightly and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have made arrangements in advance?"

"Isn't everyone aware? The main purpose of this drill is to show you that artillery, muskets and grenades are all very good weapons.

What I want to show you in a few days is that muskets, artillery, and grenades are all here and there.

According to the plan, you will punish me severely and lock me in prison until the weapons developed by the Firearms Bureau can be put to use," Li Feng said.

Li Er nodded and said: "I understand your intention, which is to paralyze your opponent. Just a few days ago, I sent Cheng Yaojin and Li Wan to the border pass together. Five hundred of your disciples also followed.

The remaining five hundred or so disciples will go with me. To be honest, I have never seen artillery and grenades, how powerful are they?"

Li Feng saw Li Er's curious look, smiled, and said: "Just a musket can kill a person, and can make people who know the power of the musket so scared that they dare not go against you.

If it is an artillery piece, it can threaten at least twenty people. A grenade can also threaten twenty people."

"Since you can threaten twenty people, why do you need to build artillery? Wouldn't it be better to build more grenades?" Li Er said.

Li Feng said: "This matter cannot be explained clearly. The best way and the most intuitive way is to let you see it with your own eyes.

Okay, Lao Li, don’t ask anymore, because if you ask again, there will be no novelty."

Li Er could only curl his lips and said: "Okay, you know artillery best, I won't ask anymore, go to sleep."

At the same time, in the palace, Empress Changsun suddenly sent people to the imperial hospital to invite the imperial doctor into the palace. The reason was that the emperor was ill.

So everyone who received the news wanted to go into the palace to visit Li Er. The eldest grandson all used the excuse that it was late at night and blocked the palace except for a few princes, preventing them from entering.

As for Li Chengqian and other princes, they were also blocked from the palace by Empress Changsun.

For anyone in the palace, except Li Er who can order them, only Changsun can order them.

Even the prince Li Chengqian cannot order everyone in the palace, especially those around Li Er and the eldest grandson.

"Queen mother, how is your father?" Li Chengqian asked.

Changsun said: "Your father is asleep, don't disturb him, you can go back first."

Li Ke said: "Mother, since my father is fine, I will leave first."

Changsun said: "Go, you have come to see your father's affairs, I will mention it to your father."

Li Lizhi said: "Mother, I want to stay with you and help you take care of your father."

"My son also wants to stay." Li You said.

Li Chengqian said angrily: "What are you doing? Do you want to disturb my father's rest? Everyone go back."

Li Ke immediately said: "Brother, don't be angry. My brother, please leave now. Mother, please leave."

Queen Changsun nodded and said: "Go."

After Li Ke left, the other princes became hesitant. They wanted to stay but did not dare to stay.

Empress Changsun seemed to have read everyone's thoughts and said: "If you want to stay, then you can stay, but don't disturb your father, Li Zhi, and the same goes for you.

If you want to go back, you can go back now. Once your father knows about it, you will not be short of rewards that should be sent to you."

"My son is willing to stay."

"My son is willing to stay."

"..."

Suddenly, everyone is willing to stay, and this is an opportunity to compete for favor.

Changsun didn't say anything, he just didn't let anyone disturb Li Er and arranged for them to go to other palaces to rest.

The next day, many people entered the palace and wanted to see the emperor.

After the eldest grandson came out, only two people were allowed in, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng. They were then told to perform their respective duties.

Fang Xuanling temporarily handled the government affairs, Wei Zheng helped Li Feng search for evidence, and the others did their own thing.

This has led many people to speculate that Li Er's illness was caused by his heart-wrenching desire to exonerate Li Feng.

This rumor quickly spread in the palace, and Li Chengqian and other princes began to discuss it after learning about it.

Li You found Li Chengqian and said, "Brother Emperor, have you heard? My father's illness this time was caused by Li Feng. If we want to make our father's illness better, shouldn't we rescue Li Feng first?"

Li Chengqian frowned and said, "Who did you listen to?"

"There are rumors everywhere in the palace, and the possibility that my father favors Li Feng so much is very high, so I wanted to ask the emperor brother if we want to go together?" Li You analyzed.

Li Chengqian began to think deeply and said: "What you said makes sense. Let's ask our father. If he agrees, we will save Li Feng.

If Father disagrees, we won't cause any trouble. Not only will Father not scold us, but we may also be praised for worrying about him."

Li You raised his thumb and said, "Brother Huang is really smart. Let's go find Father Huang now."

"Walk."

Li Chengqian and Li You arrived at Li Er's bedroom, but were blocked by Li Junxian.

"Your Majesty has an order that no one can disturb him. Prince Chu, please go back. If you have any questions, you can contact the Queen." Li Junxian said in a deep voice.

Li Chengqian said angrily: "Li Junxian, I have something important to see my father. If important things are delayed, can you afford it?"

Li Junxian said: "Is the prince trying to violate His Majesty's will?"

"It's not that I violated my father's will, but this matter is really important and I must see my father. Now, you get out of the way." Li Er said, "Now, can you get out of the way?"

"Chengqian, what are you doing?" Queen Changsun said with a gloomy face.

"See the queen." Li Junxian cupped his hands and said.

"Mother." Li Chengqian said in shock.

"My son, please see your mother." Li You saluted immediately.

Empress Changsun asked solemnly: "What are you doing?"

Li Junxian said: "Reporting to the queen, the prince and the king of Chu want to see your majesty, but the humble ministers won't let you go, so they want to force their way in."

Queen Changsun said angrily: "It's unreasonable. You two dare not even listen to His Majesty's words. Now I order you to go back to your home and think about your mistakes behind closed doors.

Without orders from me and His Majesty, you are not allowed to step out of the room."
