"Sixteenth prince, there is no need to panic. This is the rule of the Han Palace in the past. Loyalty to the court is what every Han king must do. It is also one of the responsibilities of the Han Palace to control whether there is any possibility of unrest in the court. It will only be reported to the present.
"Shangguan Yu raised his hands in the air and said.
"My father knows?" The Sixteenth Prince was even more frightened.
Seeing the change in the face of the sixteenth prince, Shangguan Yu did not show off and shook his head: "The Han Palace only reports news that will cause unrest. The sixteenth prince has no intention of forcing the palace, so why should he go to heaven to listen?"
Hearing this, the Sixteenth Prince let out a long sigh.
The current emperor hates the princes forming cliques for personal gain. The third prince was imprisoned, apparently because of the evidence of corruption presented by the prince.
In fact, any thoughtful person would understand that the emperor did not want his sons to start dividing his empire when they grew older.
The third prince has the support of so many ministers, which means that the emperor's throne is not so stable. At least in the emperor's view, with the support of a wealthy maternal family like the Chen family, the third prince has the ability to rebel and force the palace.
Therefore, the emperor's severe injury to the third prince was also a warning to all his sons and ministers.
Even the prince did not dare to be too proud because of the accident of the third prince, and he also restrained himself a lot on some matters.
"No matter what the reason is, if the Han Palace wants to support me as the next king, it is tantamount to participating in the fight for the right to inherit the throne. What about in the future? As long as the Han Palace is involved, won't it be afraid of falling into the quagmire and never being able to get out?" Ten
The sixth prince quickly calmed down and asked.
Shangguan Yu stared at the Sixteenth Prince. Apart from the memorable meeting when he was young, he almost didn't remember meeting the Sixteenth Prince.
Whether it was a palace banquet or other occasions that the Sixteenth Prince had to attend, he was almost always silent and people ignored his presence.
But it has to be said that the children of the royal family are all keen on politics.
"If the royal family does not believe it, the Han Palace can hand over military power or even leave the Eastern Han Dynasty." Shangguan Yu replied.
"Since the Han Palace has such a determination, why not let the father know?" The Sixteenth Prince asked again.
"The Sixteenth Prince thinks that the Emperor will believe it?" Shangguan Yu smiled bitterly, "If he did, he would have believed that the Han Palace had no rebellious intentions as early as when my grandfather passed away. After I was poisoned by the royal family when I was young,
We should believe in the loyalty of the Han Palace."
"You mean..." The Sixteenth Prince's eyes widened in disbelief, and then he felt that Shangguan Yu's words were nothing to doubt, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"I came to the Sixteenth Prince today because I wanted to be honest. When that day comes, the Han Palace will disappear in the Eastern Han Dynasty. I also ask the Sixteenth Prince to treat the Zixiao Army well. They are not loyal to the Han Palace, but
Guarding the border for the Eastern Han Dynasty.
As long as the generals in charge of the border do not deduct military pay, and the court can treat the relatives of the fallen soldiers kindly, no soldier's heart will not be toward the court."
Shangguan Yu said in a deep voice: "The first King of Han swore on the lives of the descendants of the Han Palace and his soul that he would never commit any rebellion in this life. As a descendant of the Han Palace, as long as he is a man of blood,
They will not violate the oaths made by their ancestors."
"I believe that the Han Palace has no sinful intentions." The Sixteenth Prince said sternly: "Actually, it's not just me, but several of the royal brothers also believe it. With the Han Palace's unique advantages, they want to proclaim themselves king, and the court wants to put an end to the chaos.
It's not easy. But the Han Palace has been a minister for generations, and they are more dedicated to their duties than the Zhong Palace. I believe that my father also understands that people with high positions and powerful positions often ignore the truth due to their own doubts."
"I have evidence that my father's affairs are directly related to the prince's party. Therefore, I want to send the sixteenth prince to the throne and make the prince regret his whole life." Shangguan Yu said half-truth.
To assassinate the emperor, it must not be a direct assassination, but a slow death of the emperor.
The prince had attacked the Han Palace more than once, but he was not as ruthless as the third prince, and he still wanted to win over him, so Shangguan Yu did not want to kill the prince.
But if the prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor, the Han palace will not even have time to breathe, and will be targeted.
The sixteenth prince was Shangguan Yu's bet that he would not take action against the Han Palace during his reign, so that Shangguan Yu could have enough time to pave the way for future generations instead of relying solely on Bai Ling's space.
"This prince swears on his own life and the life of his mother and concubine that if he really succeeds in becoming a great treasure, as long as the Han Palace does not conspire against him, he will not be suspicious at all." The sixteenth prince weighed it again and again and decided to cooperate with Shangguan Yu.
At least for now, Shangguan Yu is his most favorable supporter.
Shangguan Yu put down another booklet and said to the Sixteenth Prince: "These people are all rising stars who have ideals and ambitions in their hearts, but are restricted by their families. The Sixteenth Prince might as well make friends with them. And as the year is approaching, the Sixteenth Prince should also think about it.
How do you want the emperor to pay attention to you and get into the eyes of the ministers?
In the next year, there will be many things, and I think the emperor will also appoint young princes to go to various places to experience. How to do it, the sixteen princes should plan."
After leaving the Sixteenth Prince's Mansion, Bai Ling brought Shangguan Yu into the space.
"You came to see the Sixteenth Prince, why didn't you ask me to send you here? If you are targeted, you can't tell." Looking at Shangguan Yu's black outfit, Bai Ling resisted wanting to put her hand on his waist.
With the urge to pinch two handfuls, he pulled Shangguan Yu to sit down at the barbecue grill.
"Did you hear everything?" Shangguan Yu was not angry that Bai Ling was following him, but asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Bai Ling nodded and said, "The sixteenth prince actually gave birth to a baby face. If he hadn't known the rules of the Eastern Han Dynasty's royal family, the underage prince would not be able to leave the palace and establish a palace. I didn't expect that he would be over ten."
Eight years old."
"The face of the sixteenth prince is just like his mother's concubine." Shangguan Yu replied.
"Have you met the mother-in-law of the Sixteenth Prince?" Bai Ling asked, wanting to talk about a lighter topic.
"I met Huang Guiren once." Shangguan Yu told Bai Ling what he saw that year.
Bai Ling had already roasted a hare. While listening to Shangguan Yu's words, he had finished cutting it. He also roasted a few bunches of vegetables and put them on the plate. The two of them ate and chatted.
"I didn't expect that the sixteenth prince's life would not be easy. Born in the royal family, if he is not favored by the emperor or does not have a powerful maternal ancestor, it will be even more difficult than for children from ordinary families." After listening, Bai Ling sighed:
"However, there are advantages and disadvantages. Perhaps it is because of Huang Guiren's background that mother and son are able to be safe until now."
"Ling'er is absolutely right." Shangguan Yu picked a piece of meat with tendons and fed it to Bai Ling. Shangguan Yu asked, "Ling'er thinks that I didn't choose to take that path in the end, because it wasn't bloody enough?"
"how come."
Bai Ling shook his head, his little mouth was bulging, which made him look a little cuter than usual.
"You have no interest in the throne, and you are used to seeing the blood on the battlefield. You just don't want to lose lives. Once a general is successful, all his bones will be withered. If he wants to overthrow a court, countless people will die. And after the war, even a few years...
It will take decades to recuperate and recuperate.”
Squeezing Bai Ling's face, Shangguan Yu said with a bitter smile: "Yes, I have listened to my father's teachings over and over again since I was a child, and I cannot be cruel. But sometimes, I really want to take revenge at all costs.
, but it’s a coincidence that I can’t.”
"Stop being so gloomy. After eating these delicacies, I will take you to get revenge!" Bai Ling said with a playful wink as he grabbed the front paw of a hare and stuffed it into Shangguan Yu's hand. (To be continued)
