"But when a prince breaks the law, he is as guilty as the common people. Just because he is a prince, he cannot be spared lightly."
Dong Changfeng was angry.
"You two don't need to argue anymore, I have made a decision."
As Emperor Hongyuan spoke, he stood up, looked at King Jin, and said in a deep voice, "Evil son, you are impulsive and reckless, causing great disaster. You should be punished for your crimes.
But because of your bravery in fighting the enemy and your timely repentance, I will spare you the death penalty.
However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided. I will remove you from all positions in the army and fine you a salary of three years. You should stay at home and reflect on it.
Without my consent, you are not allowed to step out of Prince Jin's Mansion!"
The King of Jin hurriedly said with joy, "Thank you very much, Father, for your kindness."
Dong Changfeng and Chen Ping had angry expressions on their faces, while the emperor simply raised it high and lowered it gently.
If such serious crimes are punished lightly, the rule of law will not be effective; if bad laws are tolerated, fairness will not exist.
The emperor's move was really foolish, but they did not dare to say anything, so they had to swallow it deep in their hearts.
At this time, Taifu Han stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that King Li was ill. I wonder if his health has improved after recuperating for so long?
I haven't seen him for a long time, so I'm really worried about him."
Li Huai, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, said: "Yes, Your Majesty, I have visited Prince Li several times, but have been turned away.
King Li is an important minister of the country, and I am very worried about his safety, so I ask Your Majesty to allow me to visit him."
When Li Wang's teacher returned to the court and the emperor discussed meritorious deeds and rewarded him, Li Wang did not appear, and the officials were always puzzled.
At that time, the emperor told everyone that King Li was injured due to hard work during the war and needed to recuperate at home, so that everyone should not disturb him.
Everyone thought it was strange that even if King Li was injured, he would still have the strength to go to court, right?
Unless he is seriously injured, he cannot go to court.
After the emperor explained at that time, everyone temporarily dispelled their doubts. However, after such a long time, no one saw King Li, and everyone became more and more suspicious that something had happened to him.
But the emperor had never allowed them to visit King Li. Today they finally couldn't help themselves and asked.
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he said: "Prince Li is still recovering in the palace, and I have been sending imperial doctors to take care of him. You don't have to worry.
Recently, the Dangxiang people in the northwest have been harassing our border again. I decided to wait until King Li recovers from his injuries before sending him out to deal with the Dangxiang people.
You are not allowed to disturb him while he is recovering from his injuries."
"Well...well, I'll just wait for the good news from King Li."
Taifu Han said.
Although everyone had doubts, they felt relieved after hearing Emperor Hongyuan say that he would send King Li to the expedition again.
Maybe King Li was seriously injured before, and the emperor was afraid that the enemy would know the news, so he didn't allow everyone to visit.
In this case, they will not disturb King Li.
Seeing the suspicion and speculation among the officials, Emperor Hongyuan thought that Chu Xuanchen's disappearance would be exposed sooner or later. Once exposed, not only would the court be in turmoil, but other countries would also be ready to take action.
It seems that he has to quickly train a person to impersonate Chu Xuanchen, and then send that person to the border and let him stay at the border in the name of Chu Xuanchen, so as to dispel the doubts of the officials and paralyze the enemy.

Yaoshan Military Camp
On this day, when Feng Qin was about to take Chu Xuanchen out to play again, the two of them were stopped in front of the camp by Feng Wu and others.
"Hey, Feng Qin, what, you and this idiot want to go out to play again?"
Feng Wu crossed his arms across his chest, raised his eyebrows slightly, and stared at the two of them with disdain.
