Chapter 1998 The revenge of killing the father is undeniable
at the same time.
In the study room of Prince Jiang's Mansion.
Chu Yichen and his staff were also discussing the emperor's illness in the study.
Charcoal was burning in the study, and the whole room was warm, but the atmosphere in the room was cold and solemn.
Chu Yichen listened to the words of the staff in the room with a gloomy expression.
"My lord, the most important thing right now is to find a way to find out the situation in Qianqing Palace."
"..." Chu Yichen slapped the table and said angrily, "You think I don't want to explore?
Nowadays, no one is allowed in or out of the Palace of Qianqing, let alone the king and his mother-in-law, even the prince and the queen cannot enter."
"Isn't there someone who can come and go freely?"
Chu Yichen was stunned, "Are you talking about Master Wu?"
"Exactly."
"Master Awareness is your Majesty's most trusted eminent monk. He goes to the imperial dining room every few days. Maybe the prince can start with Master Awareness."
Chu Yichen gritted his teeth and said, "That's an old bald donkey who doesn't know what's good or bad. No matter how many olive branches I threw to him, he refused to stand by me. Even if I went to find him, he would definitely be in trouble." .”
"But now there is no other way."
Chu Yichen kept a calm face and said nothing.
At this moment.
Su Changfeng suddenly spoke, "Your Majesty, my subordinates think that the news about Qianqing Palace can be put aside for now. The top priority right now is that the emperor is seriously ill. Instead of summoning the prince and the prince to attend Qianqing Palace, Prince Jing must be summoned." Return to the capital and ask the Emperor what the profound meaning of his decree is."
"..." Chu Yichen's face turned serious, "Changfeng means that the father wants to pass the throne to the fourth child?"
Su Changfeng nodded.
"Prince Jing is building a dike in Fucheng, and he is still investigating the officials in Fucheng privately... Whether it is building a dike or investigating officials, it is a very important matter for the emperor.
But the emperor asked Prince Jing to return to Beijing regardless of the situation.
Apart from the fact that he wants to pass the throne to Prince Jing, my subordinates really can’t think of a second reason for the emperor to let him return to the capital.”
When Su Changfeng mentioned Prince Jing, the staff looked at each other and said nothing.
Who doesn't know that Su Changfeng is Prince Jing's brother-in-law.
His identity is sensitive.
I shouldn't have spoken at first, but I did at this moment and said the same thing.
Immediately, a staff member who was at loggerheads with Su Changfeng stood up and said, "Master Su, please speak carefully! His Majesty may be suffering from a physical discomfort... He wants to gather several princes together and announce some matters when everyone is here."
"Ah!"
Su Changfeng sneered and looked at the aide who spoke, "Master Niu, do you believe what you say? I know you don't believe me. You just think that Prince Jing is my brother-in-law and you think that I am not wholeheartedly helping the prince to share his worries.
I can tell you clearly that the prince is the master I have chosen, and I will do my best to assist the prince regardless of my heart."
Master Niu also sneered, "If Mr. Su really has no second thoughts, how could your sister marry into Prince Jing's palace?"
"My sister's marriage was decided by my father when he was still alive."
"No matter whose idea it was, your sister is also a concubine of Prince Jing's palace."
Master Niu said coldly, "Master Su is different from me. After all, Master Su is someone who has a way out."
"..." Chu Yichen listened to the two people quarreling with each other, but did not stop the two of them. When he saw that the two of them were almost arguing, he raised his palms and made a stop gesture.
He looked at Su Changfeng gently, "Changfeng, I naturally believe in you. What do you think of the current situation?"
“It’s easy!”
Su Changfeng narrowed his eyes, his immature face full of sinister thoughts, "Take the fuel out of the cauldron."
"oh?"
"No matter what the emperor's reason is for asking Prince Jing to return to the capital, we just need to find a way to prevent Prince Jing from coming back."
Thinking of his father's tragic death, and that Chu Mohan, as his son-in-law, did not even attend his father's funeral, Su Changfeng felt only resentment in his heart. He raised his lips and said, "As long as Prince Jing dies outside, even if the emperor wants to appoint him as his heir... it will be in vain.
.”
Chu Yichen felt that what he said made sense.
Su Changfeng continued, "When Prince Jing was in the capital, it was difficult for us to take action, but now he is in Fucheng.
When he was in Fucheng, he was investigating the officials of Fucheng, and there was also a refugee uprising... He died in Fucheng because of his bad fate, and he could not be traced to the prince."
"..." Su Changfeng said again, "It won't matter even if we find out.
Now that the prince's body is already dying, and His Highness's legs are disabled, as long as Prince Jing dies, the emperor will not hold the prince responsible even if he knows that it was the prince who did it. After all... apart from the prince, the emperor has no other choice.
"
That's right.
As long as Chu Mohan is dead, it doesn't matter what his father thinks.
He will be the only candidate for the throne.
Chu Yichen's heart was racing.
"You are right. As long as Chu Mohan dies, all of my current difficulties will be solved."
Huizhou is the territory of Zhou Ling, the governor.
No one knew Zhou Ling was his.
Chu Mohan and the prince thought that Zhou Ling was a princeling, and they were not prepared for Zhou Ling.
Kill Chu Mohan.
There is no one more suitable for this knife than Zhou Ling.
This secret move had been buried for so many years, and it finally came in handy.
Chu Yichen felt that Su Changfeng's suggestion spoke to his heart. Seeing that Su Changfeng hesitated to speak, he immediately said, "Does Changfeng have anything else to say?"
"yes."
Su Changfeng no longer had any scruples and continued, "Prince Jing has been on the battlefield for a long time and is known as a victorious general.
If the prince wants to kill him, he must hit it with one blow, otherwise he will definitely counterattack. This man has great martial arts skills and is good at using military strategies. If he counterattacks, there may be consequences."
"The king knows what he is thinking."
Su Changfeng was worried because he didn't know Zhou Ling was his.
In Zhou Ling's realm, even if Chu Mohan is a dragon, he still has to be coiled.
He was 100% sure that Chu Mohan would bury his body in Fucheng.
Seeing Chu Yichen's determined expression, Su Changfeng frowned slightly. He wanted to remind King Jiang that Chu Mohan was not an ordinary opponent and should never be taken lightly.
But... he also knew that King Jiang was conceited. If he said this, King Jiang would definitely be unhappy.
Su Changfeng could only swallow the words back in his stomach.
He added, "Compared to Prince Jing, my subordinates feel that the person the prince should be most careful about is Prince Yu."
"Uncle Emperor?"
"yes!"
Su Changfeng said in a deep voice, "Jiangnan is rich and prosperous. Although His Highness Prince Yu has not been in Jiangnan in the past two years, Jiangnan has never stopped recruiting troops. Nowadays, no one knows how many available troops His Highness Prince Yu has."
"His Royal Highness Prince Yu's position has always been unclear, or maybe... he doesn't side with the prince and the princelings because he has his own agenda. In short, this person has to be guarded against."
Chu Yichen was thoughtful.
A whole room of people stayed in the study for a whole day. After dark, Chu Yichen waved his staff to leave, but he left Su Changfeng alone.
"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"No."
Chu Yichen patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be nervous, I just want to chat with you casually. Are you still not over your father's death?"
"..." Blood welled up in Su Changfeng's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable! My lord, I only want one thing from you. One day, you can ascend to a high position and bring Prince Yu and Su Xing'er to justice."
