"Master Zhou, Tang Chongfeng has already proposed this point, and we have discussed the solution. No one is born to be an emperor. Although the prince is young, the prince and I will try our best to assist him and we will definitely be able to help him do this well.
King Chu!" Wang Erzhe frowned.
"Prime Minister Wang!" Zhou Shuyuan was not afraid at all and looked back at him and said: "What was discussed that day was whether the prince has the ability of the King of Chu. However...how can a king of a country be convinced if he only has ability but does not have the character that is praised by everyone?
Everyone!"
"You...you are so bold!" Wang Erzhe was furious in his heart. He had already guessed what the other party was going to say!
"Master Wang! Everything Wei Chen said is true!" Zhou Shuyuan suddenly put on a sad and indignant posture: "Wei Chen knows that we ministers do not dare to speak ill of the king, but... compared with the thousands of generations of Chu State,
Get up, it’s just a humble life, it doesn’t matter!”
Seeing the sudden behavior of the Minister of Revenue, everyone was a little confused. Only the face of Chu Hua in front turned pale instantly!
"You don't know something! Before King Bintian, His Highness the Crown Prince made a huge mistake! So much so that the old King was furious and wanted to depose the Crown Prince in public. Have you heard about it?"
At this point, the ministers suddenly remembered that on the day of the prince's birthday banquet, a major event happened in the prince's palace. The officials' children who attended the banquet all noticed that Chu Gang had appeared in the prince's palace after the banquet.
It happened once, and that time, just as Zhou Shuyuan said, Chu Gang became furious and said harsh words on the spot to depose Chu Hua as the crown prince.
At that time, everyone naturally thought that Chu Gang was talking angrily. Chu Gang did not establish a harem, and if he had just such a son, who would be the king of Chu if he was deposed?
Although they were angry words, everyone took it to heart and told their parents what happened in the palace after returning home.
To make Chu Gang so angry, God knows what Chu Hua did?
Now that Master Zhou mentioned it, most of the people who didn't know about it pricked up their ears and wanted to know the whole story.
Seeing this, does the Minister of the Ministry of Finance actually know the truth?
"Master Zhou! Be careful what you say!" At this moment, Prince Chu Lie, who had not spoken until now, suddenly spoke.
Everyone looked around and found that Chu Lie's face seemed a little gloomy, and his weather-beaten face was filled with a look of solemnity.
"This is a matter of honor for the royal family. Please don't make any mistakes, sir?" Chu Lie looked at Zhou Shuyuan and said calmly.
After hearing Chu Lie's words, Lord Shangshu, who had been filled with indignation just now, suddenly softened, lowered his eyebrows and clasped his fists: "It was the humble minister who was rude, I hope the prince and the prince will not blame him!"
Damn it! Just now you were acting like you were desperate for life. How could you say that in the face of the country's justice, your own life was nothing? Why did you become so soft when Chu Lie said this?
All the ministers felt a little disappointed. They thought they could hear something big, but they were stopped anyway.
However, looking at it like this, the prince must have done something extremely outrageous, something that affects the face of the entire royal family, so it cannot be mentioned to the outside world at all!
For a time, many ministers looked at Chu Hua with inexplicable emotions in their eyes.
Wang Erzhe in front of the hall heard Chu Lie helping to speak. Not only did he not relax, but his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
It seems that the matter has been stopped and no further mention is made, but their goal has been achieved! Even Prince Chu Lie personally intervened, not wanting to cause a big trouble, which must be a big thing that will greatly damage the face of the royal family. To do such a thing
The prince was brought down another level in the hearts of the ministers!
"Although the prince is at fault in this matter, it is mostly because the prince is young and energetic and has made mistakes that many people will make, but it is not without remedy!" Wang Erzhe said: "Besides, this matter can be said to be a big deal.
No matter what, since the prince has a heart of repentance, the old minister is willing to believe the prince again! Therefore, we cannot conclude from this matter that the prince has bad character. Mr. Zhou, your statement is a bit exaggerated, I hope you will not mention it again!"
He said this, but in his heart Wang Erzhe had already scolded this Lao Shizi Hubu Shangshu and his family thousands of times!
In the final analysis, I am the one who suffers the most from this Mader matter. I don’t even want to mention it, but you actually brought it up in front of me. I’m really angry!
Zhou Shuyuan took a deep look at Wang Erzhe, bowed his head and said, "I am guilty of this!" Then he slowly entered the queue without any sign of knowing his guilt.
He just wanted to test Wang Erzhe's attitude and lower the prince's status in the eyes of the ministers. Since Prime Minister Wang was so serious about protecting the prince, he couldn't unseat the prince on his own!
"Is there anyone who objects to the crown prince's enthronement? Feel free to raise it!" Wang Erzhe no longer looked at Zhou Shuyuan who walked into the queue, but continued to speak.
He knew that this was just the first wave of offensive. To really depose Chu Hua from the throne, he would have to be... charged with killing his father and killing his king!
As Wang Erzhe's words fell, the ministers below immediately whispered among themselves. Although no one stood up to say anything, they were not actively supporting Chu Hua's rise to power like before!
At this moment, a figure suddenly walked in from the side door.
The person who came was a young man in his twenties. He was dressed in white and looked easy-going and elegant. With his delicate and delicate facial features, he really made people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
As he entered the court, the person who reacted most violently in the court was not the ministers below, but the Crown Prince Chu Hua who stood at the head!
Since Chu Gang's accident, he has never seen him again, because there is no need to meet him. They both know things well in their hearts, so why do they need to meet and make it unpleasant?
Chu Yun naturally thought so, but Chu Hua didn't necessarily think so.
In the past, he might have asked why, then rushed forward and tore that sanctimonious face to pieces, or he might have been so frightened that he could not sleep all night, fearing that what he would see when he got up tomorrow would be the underworld.
But now, Chu Hua does seem very calm.
Because in front of him, everything he did seemed so ridiculous. Now he was pretending to be calm just to preserve some dignity for himself!
He doesn't want to behave like a complete loser, because the outcome is not yet known, and it's really not certain who will win!
After entering the hall, the first thing Chu Yun did was to bow his head and say hello to Wang Erzhe, who was standing at the front, and bowed respectfully.
Wang Erzhe wanted to go up and slap him twice, and then scold him for having no official position. How dare he walk into the Zhenghe Hall with such arrogance!
However, after thinking about it, he just nodded lightly in response.
It's better to follow the example of the prince and save some dignity. After all, he is not the king of Chu at the moment, so he has no right to control him. Even Tang Gongfeng, who is sitting aside, does not stand up to speak, so why should he start such a fire?
After bowing to Wang Erzhe, Chu Yun turned to look at Chu Hua, who was wearing the prince's python robe.
He is dressed in white.
He was dressed in fine clothes.
No matter what the result is, it seems a bit ironic now.
"Brother Wang! Long time no see. Sorry!"
Chu Yun gently clasped his fists and said in the gentlest tone: "I know that the king's death has hit you hard. Please cheer up, brother Wang, and don't be too sad. After all, this huge Chu country is still waiting for the king."
Brother, come and inherit!”
"..."
Chu Hua's hands, which were hidden under his robe, were clenched again, with veins exposed, as if he was about to insert his nails into the palms of his hands!
"Brother Yun... I'm fine, no need to worry." Chu Hua's voice was not flat, but fortunately it was not loud and not many people heard it.
"That's very good!" Chu Yun raised his hand again and bowed slightly to His Royal Highness.
He has no official position and is at most an ordinary citizen in the Zhenghe Hall. When he sees the prince, he will naturally bow to him.
Afterwards, the two of them almost walked past each other. Chu Yun slowly came to the side of Prince Chu Lie and called his father in a low voice.
Judging from Chu Lie's expression, he was quite surprised, but he didn't say anything more and just nodded lightly.
Everything seems to be going well, but there has been a wave of joy in the hearts of those who know about it.
Jiang Wuyan below looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who suddenly walked in. He maintained his principle of silence and did not speak. However, he noticed a very subtle thing!
In the Hall of Zhenghe, there are three people with the most power and the highest status... Well, if you include the prince, there are four people.
Prime Minister Wang Erzhe, Prince Chu Lie, Prince Chu Hua... and Tang Chongfeng who has been sitting in the corner!
Why did Chu Yun say hello to the three people in front of him, but turned a blind eye to Tang Zongfeng? What does this mean?
Jiang Wuyan was not the only one who was suspicious of this.
Wang Erzhe, who was standing in front, was not at peace either.
He originally thought that Chu Yun would not come out and could just sit in the side hall and listen, because it was basically meaningless for him to participate in this discussion inside the Zhenghe Hall.
Second, he came as soon as he came. Why did he want to slander Chu Hua?
Those words he just said were clearly provocative! Rubbing salt into the prince's wounds! And he did it in front of all the cultural relic officials! This is not like Chu Yun's usual style.
Chu Hua was probably on the verge of collapse now... Fortunately, he held it back and was no longer like before.
Otherwise, he is really only suitable to be a loser!
Finally, he also had the same question in Jiang Wuyan's mind: why did Chu Yun turn a blind eye to Tang Zongfeng? This was neither reasonable nor reasonable!
Wang Erzhe frowned and thought deeply, but did not speak for a while.
Then there are the officials in the hall who may or may not be aware of it.
Insiders such as Zhou Shuyuan, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, were stunned when they saw Chu Yun walking in. They didn't know what this person was doing, but... he didn't know how to ask more questions, and he didn't dare to ask more questions.
Some other uninformed officials did not notice that Chu Yun had not paid any attention to Tang Chongfeng's matter, and were just wondering why Chu Yun came here and what his purpose was. There were also a few people who wanted to question Chu Yun who did not have any official position.
You are not a noble person, how can you participate in court meetings just by virtue of your hair?
Of course, I was just thinking about it. Even the big bosses in front of me didn't say anything. There was no need for me to be the one who stood out.
So, while everyone was thinking, the atmosphere in Zhenghe Hall became quiet for a moment with the arrival of Chu Yun.
