2830. Chapter 2830 The real son who can't see the light 6
After receiving the letter, Lord Wei and Song Yunjie hurried into the palace and handed it to the emperor. Seeing the letter, the emperor's mood changed a lot.
Everyone else is happy, but one person is afraid that he won't be happy anymore.
After receiving this letter, the emperor still stood still. After all, this matter did not need to be urgent for a while. However, when the court hall arrived the next day, chaos suddenly broke out.
As the prime minister, Song Yunjie had a plan to report directly to the prince for embezzling food and grass from the treasury. After he was discovered, he even killed dozens of people in order to conceal the matter. His methods were extremely cruel.
Song Yunjie's words caused an uproar in the court. After hearing this, the prince knelt down in front of the emperor and cried out that he was wronged.
Unfortunately, this time, Song Yunjie did not fight unprepared. Song Yunjie directly stated that he had conclusive evidence on hand to prove everything the prince had done.
As soon as Song Yunjie's evidence was presented, the emperor became furious after seeing it and called the prince not only sorry for his father, but also for the millions of people of the Zhou Kingdom and the soldiers who shed their lives and blood on the battlefield.
Originally, stealing grain and fodder from the national treasury was not a trivial matter. Later, the ministers heard that this batch of grain and fodder could end up in the hearts of people from other countries, and the eyes they looked at the prince changed.
In today's world, the Three Kingdoms dominate, and there are constant small tribes. There are only three countries that can be called countries.
So except for the Great Zhou Kingdom itself, the things in the treasury either flowed into the Great Jin Kingdom or the Great Slave Kingdom.
When they thought of the current situation of the Great Slave Kingdom and the Great Zhou Kingdom, the faces of those ministers turned dark.
They were completely understandable that the prince would do whatever it took to gain access to the great treasure, but when this trick was used to such an extent, the ministers expressed that they could not accept it.
At this time, Lord Wei lit a fire: "Your Majesty, the prince has done such a rebellious and unethical thing. Not only is he unworthy of the people of the Great Zhou Kingdom, but he is also unworthy of being a human son, a minister, and a king. I sincerely ask the emperor to depose the eldest prince.
The identity of the prince."
Lord Wei no longer calls Zhou Xuanqi the prince, but calls him the eldest prince directly. He uses his words and deeds to express how Zhou Xuanqi and his virtue can deserve the title of "prince".
Originally, if Lord Wei had not taken the lead, no matter how dissatisfied someone was with the prince, they would not dare to directly say that Zhou Xuanqi's position as prince would be abolished.
But now Lord Wei took the lead, and other ministers who had objections to the prince followed him one after another, knelt together, and said that the eldest prince had lost his moral character and was really unqualified to take on the important role of prince.
"Father, I don't think the prince did it on purpose. I hope father can give the prince another chance." At this time, the seventh prince also knelt in front of the emperor, and it was rare for him to plead for the prince.
The seventh prince felt quite happy when he saw Zhou Xuanqi's bloodless face and pale face.
You know, after Zhou Xuanqi was named the prince, he used his position as prince to look down on him, and even used his position to deal with him.
Since Zhou Xuanqi was going to be deposed as the crown prince, he wanted to see how Zhou Xuanqi would act arrogantly in front of him in the future.
The reason why the seventh prince was willing to plead for the prince was just to have a good reputation.
The prince did something so unnatural, how could the emperor just give up because of his plea.
