Emperor Chengwu's face darkened, and Wang Bingkun, the first patriarch of the Dafeng Dynasty, widened his eyes, looking like he had died heroically. For a proud scholar like Wang Bingkun, some words were like water being thrown out, and he would rather die.
You have to hold on.
Xuan Le stood in the hall without going in. He wanted to hear what his father meant. In any case, Xuan Le felt that Wang Bingkun made such a request and deserved death. The establishment of the crown prince was done in accordance with God's will, unless the crown prince
It is suspected of endangering the country, otherwise it will never be replaced. Wang Bingkun's request is simply acting against nature.
Emperor Chengwu put his hands on the imperial case and couldn't calm down for a long time. He was still angry with Xuanle just now, but at this moment, Emperor Chengwu knew that he had to stand up and support his son Xuanle. Otherwise, once there was such a sign, Emperor Chengwu
, will cause an uproar in the court.
"Old Master, as the chief and assistant minister of the Imperial Academy, you can be said to be the teacher of all the princes. Don't you know that the crown prince was established in accordance with God's will? Since it is God's will, and Leer did not act against God, how can he depose him?
"Old Master, you are not young anymore. I think it is time to go home and take care of yourself." Emperor Chengwu said with a gloomy look on his face and anger.
King Jing was shocked. He did not expect that Emperor Chengwu would send the old lady home to take care of him in order to depose him. Wang Bingkun knelt on the ground trembling. He was not afraid but angry.
"Your Majesty, I know that what I said is not liked by the Holy One. However, Xuan Le favors nepotism and excludes the virtuous, and this son is arbitrary and tyrannical. His actions have shaken the foundation of Dafeng. Isn't this not against heaven?" Wang Bingkun
Said straightforwardly.
"Shut up, I don't want to hear anymore. Don't mention this matter again. You can go down." Emperor Chengwu said and turned aside, not even wanting to look at Wang Bingkun anymore.
Prince Jing secretly glanced at Emperor Chengwu, walked up to Wang Bingkun with the whip in his arms, and stretched out his hand to pull the old master up.
"Sir, please calm down. Everything can be discussed easily. The ministers outside are still waiting for you." King Jing said, secretly giving Wang Bingkun a wink.
Prince Jing said in his heart that you can't do it alone, there is a group of people outside. Only by fooling them all can you force Emperor Chengwu to submit. In so many years, how has it ever been possible for you to kneel down and remonstrate alone? In the end, you didn't succeed.
It was this king who brought you to the clan's mansion to drink tea.
Wang Bingkun stood up tremblingly, bowed to Emperor Chengwu, "Your Majesty! Retreat." After saying that, Wang Bingkun turned around and left angrily with a bamboo pole in hand.
When Xuan Le saw that the old master Wang Bingkun was about to come out, he hurriedly hid behind the screen. Emperor Cheng Wu's words strengthened Xuan Le's confidence, and he was also happy that he had an enlightened father.
As soon as Wang Bingkun left, Xuan Le was announced. Emperor Chengwu was also a little angry with Xuan Le, saying that no matter what you do, you can't beat the old minister. Don't forget that you are not the emperor yet, just the crown prince.
"Le'er, Li Hong is a first-class minister of the current dynasty and serves as Minister of War. Even my father and emperor treat him with great respect. It's a good thing that you actually hit someone." Emperor Cheng Wu looked at Xuan Le angrily.
"Father, I didn't hit you, I just pushed him accidentally." Xuan Le almost died unjustly. It was clearly Li Hong's fault today, but now it has become his fault.
Prince Jing coughed and said, "Nephew, what you said is not right. Although Li Hong is old, fontstyle="float:left;line-height:0;font-size:0;overflow:hidden;width:20px
;"Read books^*Online Romance!/font is a military general after all. A push can cause his head to bleed. How can I, General Dafeng, be so unwilling to fight?"
Xuan Lexin said how King Jing has always been against him these days. After all, you are my biological uncle, so why are you always facing outsiders?
"Uncle Prince Jing, this matter can be investigated carefully by my father. Xuan Le did not do it intentionally." Xuan Le looked at Prince Jing dissatisfied.
"Of course we have to investigate. The dispute between you and the ministers is my responsibility. Li Hong has made great contributions to our country, Dafeng. If you don't give him an explanation, let alone the old ministers outside, I won't agree.
"
"Uncle Wang, it's not clear who is right or wrong in this matter. Why do you think it's your nephew's fault?" Xuan Le said tit for tat.
"Why? Just because Li Hong's face was covered with blood, everyone in the palace saw it. No one is blind." Prince Jing stared. This was the first time he openly confronted Xuan Le like this.
When Emperor Chengwu saw that the two men were about to quarrel, he angrily slapped the imperial court, "Are you still acting like uncles and nephews? Shut up."
Emperor Chengwu rubbed Yintang and said, "Prince Jing, please go visit Li Hong on behalf of the emperor. Later, I will ask Wei Zhenghai to go to Li's house to comfort him."
Emperor Chengwu sent Prince Jing away and sat helplessly on the dragon throne. Everyone envied him for his great status, but Emperor Chengwu knew how tired his heart was. He really hoped that Xuanle could mature earlier.
Get up and leave the affairs of state to him.
Xuan Le took a few steps forward and knelt down silently in front of the imperial court. "Father, I have put you in a difficult position. No matter what my father does, I am willing to accept it."
Emperor Chengwu felt a little soft-hearted when he saw Xuan Le's aggrieved look, and asked softly, "Le'er, please tell me the truth, why did you do this recently? If you really want to take the position of father as soon as possible,
Father will not stop you. However, you must mature and be able to truly shoulder this important responsibility."
"Father, I have absolutely no intention of doing this. Everything I do is for my great prosperity, and the heavens can learn from it." Xuan Le raised his head and looked at Emperor Cheng Wu calmly.
"Oh~! Get up."
Emperor Chengwu waved his hand and asked Xuanle to stand up and speak.
"Le'er, my father sees it in his eyes and understands it very well. My father knows that you are selecting capable ministers to lay the foundation for the future. In fact, some ministers in the court are already bad. Father,
The emperor also understands. But, do you know why the father did not eradicate it?" Emperor Chengwu looked at Xuanle kindly. At this moment, he was teaching his son as a father, not a lofty emperor.
"My son, I don't understand."
"When you take charge of power, you will understand. In fact, a dynasty is just like a human body. The emperor is like the head on the body. He relies on his brain to think things and his mouth to give orders. The ministers in the court are like the various parts of the body.
Parts, if any part is missing, it will not be suitable. Good ministers are like well-developed limbs and torso, bad ministers are just the excretion of the body. Limbs and torso are the same, like loyal ministers and good generals. Without them, you will
The heartache is extremely painful and cannot be recovered. However, you have excretion in your body every day. If you eliminate it today, there will be it again tomorrow.
As long as these rebels and traitors do not threaten the country and the country, it will be beneficial to the king to keep them. Because you know that they are thieves, you will be on guard. And having these thieves is not useless. At the very least, they can be better Urge those loyal and loyal ministers to serve our royal family. If one day you think you have eliminated all those thieves, in fact they are more terrifying hiding in the dark. Perhaps you think the most loyal ministers are the biggest traitors."
Saying this, Emperor Chengwu's mind suddenly showed Zhu Tianjiang's thief look. Emperor Chengwu couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was the one who dug Zhu Tianjiang out, and even said that he was the one who indulged Zhu Tianjiang. .But now, it has become a terrible and confidant problem for the Dafeng Dynasty.
Listening to his father's heartfelt words, Xuan Le seemed to understand the meaning. For an emperor, the most important thing is the art of maneuvering. If you are knowledgeable and talented, you may not be able to manage the government well by doing it yourself. As long as the emperor can use people, he can control the government. .Whether it is a loyal minister or a traitor, as long as it is used in the right place, this is the blessing of the people.
The father and son exchanged their experience in running the government in the Qian Palace, but the courtiers outside the palace, under the righteous words of the old master Wang Bingkun, began to communicate with each other, preparing to formally jointly submit a memorial in the morning to propose deposing Crown Prince Xuan Le. thing.
The news of Li Hong's beating soon spread throughout the government and the public. For a time, Xuan Le seemed to be synonymous with violence and rudeness, and became the object of people's jokes.
In the morning of the next day, Li Hong, the Minister of War, with his head still wrapped in a cloth, was the first to stand up and ask Emperor Chengwu to depose the crown prince. The old master Wang Bingkun followed him, followed by Pan Zigang, the Minister of Civil Affairs and others. Xuan Le's behavior made all these old ministers feel in danger. Especially recently, Xuan Zhu has become gentle and elegant, and he is respected by all the old ministers. In comparison, these ministers feel that Xuan Zhu is more suitable to be the future emperor.
Emperor Chengwu ignored everyone's objections and angrily scolded a group of veterans on the spot. However, he could not withstand the large number of people and the power, and the court became noisy, especially for a stubborn person like Wang Bingkun who was not afraid at all. Emperor Chengwu was so angry that people were stunned Wang Bingkun drove out of the court, severely reprimanded him, and immediately announced his resignation.
The evolution of the matter was much more serious than Emperor Chengwu imagined. For three consecutive days, the quarrel among the ministers in the morning court became more and more violent, which made Emperor Chengwu feel a terrible power. Just as Emperor Chengwu was about to use his dangerous tricks to save his son Xuan Just as Le was supporting him, another, more terrifying news reached the capital.
In the sticky area of the south of the town, Fei Ge sent an urgent message via a message. Since Wei Zhan was not in the capital, the White Tiger envoy Geng Biao had to convey it.
After Geng Biao finished speaking urgently, Cheng Wuhuang stood up in a flash.
"What are you talking about? Zhang Zhonggao, the coach of Zhennan Camp, is under house arrest?"
"Your Majesty, the secret message sent by the secret agent from Zhennan Camp has the highest level of cinnabar seal, which means that the matter is very urgent and accurate." Geng Biao said with a little panic in his heart. If Zhennan Camp rebels, Dafeng will I'm afraid North Korea is really going to be in chaos.
"Quick! Li Hong, the Minister of the Ministry of Propaganda and War, enters the palace~!" Emperor Chengwu said with a slight trembling voice.
Just as Wei Zhenghai was about to run out, Emperor Cheng Wu stretched out his hand and said, "No! It's probably useless to spread the news about Li Hong now. It's time to bring King Jing and Xuan Le into the palace. By the way, there are also Xuan Pearls!"
At the critical moment, Emperor Chengwu felt that his own relatives were the most reliable. Li Hong and his group of veterans were clamoring for his dethronement. If the news got out, no one could say whether they would take the opportunity to cause trouble.
As soon as Wei Zhenghai left, Emperor Cheng Wu sat feebly on the dragon throne. At this moment, Emperor Cheng Wu felt that he had aged several years.
