King Zhao knew that if he wanted to take back Li Tianwei, he must first have supreme power.
If he wants to have power, he must first hold an official position in the court like a wise king. If he can achieve some political achievements, he can please the emperor.
Once he pleases the emperor, he will have more rights.
The fall of the wise king was a good opportunity for him to ascend to the throne.
Therefore, he had discussed with the officials early and planned to sue the Xian Wang severely when he went to court, hoping to take away the Xian Wang's official position.
Early the next morning, as soon as Emperor Hongyuan went to court, several officials stood up and submitted letters.
An official said: "Your Majesty, King Xian and his maids killed Concubine Lan and framed King Li. This is a heinous crime. Please punish King Xian severely to serve as a warning to others."
"Your Majesty, the wise king is the governor of Jingzhao, but he knows the law and breaks the law and commits serious crimes. He is not worthy of being the governor at all. Please ask the emperor to remove him from his position and select another worthy person to take the position of governor!"
"emperor……"
After hearing the petition from these ministers, Emperor Hongyuan was furious and felt very depressed.
He rubbed his eyebrows uncomfortably, with a gloomy look on his face.
The wise king was his most valued son. He once wanted to make the wise king the prince, but he didn't expect that this would happen now.
He really wanted to defend the virtuous king, but the evidence was conclusive and now people were panicking, so he couldn't even speak out to defend him.
Seeing these ministers standing up to accuse the wise king, Chu Xuanchen frowned slightly. If these ministers were not instigated by anyone, he would not believe it.
I just don’t know who is instructing.
King Zhao glanced at the officials who stood up and nodded in his mind.
Very good, these people are indeed obedient and all stand up to attack the wise king. Now he has a chance!
Thinking of this, he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the matter of the wise king has been spread among the people. I heard people discussing this matter on the street yesterday."
"What are they talking about?" Emperor Hongyuan's nerves immediately became tense.
King Zhao said: "I, I dare not say anything!"
"Just say what I tell you to say. Don't hesitate. Tell me the truth about what you heard. Don't worry, I won't blame you!" Emperor Hongyuan said coldly.
King Zhao hesitated for a moment and then said: "I heard from the people that the emperor valued the Xianwang and did not like the Liwang, so he acquiesced to the Xianwang to frame the Liwang in order to get rid of the Liwang. Now the emperor has been dragging his feet.
I am willing to deal with the wise king because I want to... want to keep the wise king."
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, he was extremely angry: "How can this be unreasonable? These unscrupulous people dare to talk such nonsense. Who gave them the courage?"
Seeing King Zhao stand up, Chu Xuanchen was stunned.
Could it be that King Zhao instigated these ministers to attack the wise king?
Is there any connection between the murder of Nalan Wu and King Zhao?
After thinking about it, he shook his head. With King Zhao's IQ, he probably couldn't come up with such a sophisticated strategy.
King Zhao is stepping forward now, probably just to add insult to injury and fish in troubled waters!
At this time, King Rui glanced at King Zhao with a sneer, and then stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the people's commentators have heard about it, and it is indeed what King Zhao said. If the Emperor does not deal with King Xian, I am afraid it will arouse public outrage!
"
Since the king of Zhao and his ministers want to make a wise king, he will step forward to add fuel to the fire.
King Zhao glanced at King Rui secretly. He didn't expect that King Rui also wanted to punish King Xian. Could it be that King Rui also wanted to take a share of the pie?
Seeing Prince Rui also standing up, Chu Xuanchen thought slightly to himself.
Could it be that King Zhao and King Rui formed an alliance?
