Can the Tang family defeat Tang Ning? Can they defeat the Fang family?
There is no need to answer Tang Zhao's question at all.
Tang Ning received His Majesty's favor and was at the height of his power. The Fang family controlled both households and officials, and had deep authority.
The current King Duan, coupled with the fact that the Tang family is tied together, cannot defeat anyone from Tang Ning or the Fang family.
What they relied on was the fact that King Duan was older. This reliance was given by His Majesty. He could take it back whenever he wanted.
At that time, the Tang family and Prince Duan will be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell and will never be able to stand up again.
"History is always similar..." Tang Zhao sighed and said, "Cousin Duan Wang has done all the stupid things and repeatedly tested the bottom line of His Majesty and the courtiers. I really thought that Your Majesty had no other successor except him.
Isn’t it? History books are full of stories about the snipe and the clam fighting and the fisherman benefiting from it. What’s the difference this time or twice?”
Tang Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "The elders and the younger are in order..."
"Don't talk about the order of elders and younger ones." Tang Zhao waved his hand and said: "If the order of elders and younger ones is an unchangeable rule, the person sitting on the dragon throne today should not be His Majesty."
He looked at Tang Qi and Tang Huai and asked: "And haven't you noticed that this time Duan Wang's cousin was attacked by the ministers, the matter had calmed down, but overnight, it intensified. It was obviously controlled by others.
Who in the court can control so many officials at the same time, I'm afraid even Tangning is not that capable..."
"Prince Prime Minister..." Tang Qi murmured: "Is it possible that the Prime Minister is dissatisfied with Prince Duan? No, this is impossible. He even spoke for Prince Duan in the court today."
"So what?" Tang Zhao glanced at him and said, "It's obviously not the time for King Run to step in front of people. Why should he be asked to come out and be a living target?"
Tang Huai gritted his teeth and said, "So they made Prince Duan a living target?"
"Not necessarily, this is just my guess..." Tang Zhao shook his head and said: "The Prime Minister doesn't have enough motivation to help King Run. He has no friendship with the Fang family. Unless he doesn't want to ruin the country after King Duan succeeds to the throne, I guess
Most officials in the court think so. When the time comes, even if His Majesty wants to pass the throne to him, the ministers will not agree. The country of Chen does not belong to the Zhao family, but to everyone..."
Thinking of the intensity with which the ministers impeached King Duan this time, their faces began to turn pale.
Tang Zhao breathed a long sigh of relief and said regretfully: "Actually, it is a pity for us. Even if it is a pig, sitting in the position of cousin Duan Wang, eating and sleeping every day, his throne will not be able to escape. But
As for him, he refuses to stay in the pen and insists on going out to harm others. Now the whole capital knows that he is a pig. He is not only stupid, but also bad. Officials can allow a pig to be the emperor, but they are not allowed to let the pig be fine.
Not only did they collapse the pigsty, they also collapsed their houses..."
Tang Zhao's metaphor was very rude, but as Duan Wang's uncle and having dealt with him for so many years, Tang Huai and Tang Qi knew that what he said was absolutely right.
But even if he is a stupid pig or a bad pig, he is still the hope for the Tang family to stand up again. If King Duan falls, the Tang family will never stand up again.
However, the facts are disappointing. The Fang family and Tang Ning are undoubtedly two mountain peaks for the current Tang family and Prince Duan. Looking at them is scary, let alone climbing them.
Tang Qi took two steps back, sat down slowly on the chair, and said in disbelief: "Is this the end of the Tang family and Prince Duan?"
Tang Zhao shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily the case."
Tang Qi looked at him suddenly and said, "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly!"
Tang Zhaodao: "First of all, cousin Duan Wang must realize that he is a pig, just eat and sleep, and don't do anything else..."
"I will tell Concubine Hui and ask her to warn Prince Duan personally." Tang Qi glanced at him and said, "Why don't you tell me your plan soon!"
"The method is very simple." Tang Zhao glanced at him and said: "If someone wants King Run to take the throne, they don't push King Run to the front now because the time is not there. They are waiting for five or eight years.
, when Your Majesty becomes ill and King Run has grown up, if the throne is not passed to him then, how can it be passed to a pig?"
Tang Qi said in a deep voice: "Let's get to the point!"
"Don't be impatient, you can't eat hot tofu in an impatient way..." Tang Zhao glanced at him and said, "They want to wait until King Run grows up and can stand alone before pushing him out, but if they only have two years a year,
Years, or even shorter?”
Tang Qi said angrily: "What on earth do you mean!"
Tang Zhao looked at him and said: "The sky is unpredictable, and people are prone to misfortune and fortune. If your Majesty's health fails within two years or within one year, will King Run still wait for it?"
"It's all nonsense!" Tang Qi said: "How can we be sure about this kind of thing? Will His Majesty's body listen to us?"
"Well..." Tang Zhao smiled mysteriously at him and said, "You know..."
Tang Qi's expression was startled. After he came to his senses, he said angrily: "Beast, what are you talking about? You are so courageous. Someone, drag him out and beat him twenty times!"
"You are trying to burn bridges across the river!" Tang Zhao subconsciously ran outside. Halfway there, he seemed to remember something, stopped, looked at Tang Qi, and said, "Dad, you thought this was the Tang family before.
, all the guards in the house have long since escaped..."
boom!
Tang Qi took the teacup on the table and threw it out. When the teacup flew out, Tang Zhao had already stepped out of the door.
When only Tang Qi and Tang Huai were left in the room, they looked at each other and saw some kind of light in each other's eyes.
That is the light of hope.
…
After King Duan beat Academician Zhang, he was beaten with a cane by His Majesty and rested at home. He was unable to show up before and after the impeachment incident.
Fortunately, the impeachment incident did not have any impact on him anymore. He was a prince after all, and Academician Zhang did not dare to offend him too much. He appealed to His Majesty on the spot, and Prince Duan Wang's position was preserved.
In this matter, the most regrettable thing is actually King Huai.
Although his status is not as good as that of King Kang and King Duan, if both princes are deposed, he will be infinitely close to that position without being affected.
In fact, after this incident, King Duan's already low status in everyone's hearts plummeted again. In addition, King Kang gave up on himself, and King Huai's figure suddenly became taller in everyone's hearts.
Regardless of his status as a commoner as his mother and concubine, regardless of the fact that he was alone and not associated with any interest groups, King Huai's ability and temperament were superior to King Kang's and King Duan's, and it was not necessarily impossible for him to have the last laugh.
After this incident, some people's attention finally fell on King Huai.
Late at night, in the study of Prince Huai's Mansion, a servant placed several invitations on the table and said: "Your Highness, those people have sent invitations again..."
Without even looking at it, King Huai picked up a few invitations, shook them on the candles, and then threw them into the brazier.
The servant looked at the invitations sent by several dignitaries in the capital burning in the brazier, with a look of pity on his face, and slowly backed out.
Now King Kang is decadent and King Duan has lost his support. These people showed their favor to King Huai just because they wanted to place bets on him and help him seize the throne. Unfortunately, their intentions turned into a ball of flame and soon they
Burned out...
His Highness seems to have no idea at all about this position.
In the study room, after the flame was extinguished, King Huai picked up his pen and wrote a word on the paper with a calm expression.
