Chapter 204
The emperor prevaricated the officials and did not intend to entangle in this matter any longer, so he cut off the topic directly: "Do you have other things to say, my loves?"

"My minister has something to announce."

It was Liu Xiyuan who stood up again.

The emperor looked at the new champion with a bit of boredom: "What else is there for Aiqing?"

Liu Xiyuan arched his hands and bowed his waist, more solemn than before.

Seeing this, the ministers thought it was not good.

"..."

Liu Xiyuan hesitated to consider the address before speaking, "The body of the eldest prince has arrived in the capital today. It is now being placed in the posthouse. The people below don't know how to deal with it, so I ask the minister to ask the sage."

The ministers felt like thorns on their backs in an instant.

Zhuangyuan Lang is really a mediocre little expert who steps on the line!
As soon as the front foot reminded the emperor that there was only one son left, King Duan, and even hinted that he might have nothing to do, he said on the back foot that the body of the emperor's most optimistic son who had rebelled had returned.

Gee!
They were very curious about how Zhuangyuan Lang lived to such a large age.

Looking at his previous behavior, dealing with people, speaking and manners, he was all sophisticated and smooth, why is he messed up now?
Thinking about it carefully, Liu Xiyuan is not the only one who has been messed up these two days.

First, Xiao Lu, who used to be the most afraid of causing trouble, suddenly rushed out and grabbed Yan Qing to bite; then there was Xu Kaida, who had always blushed and thick necked because of his prudence, and talked loudly with Wang Weitao in front of the imperial court.

At this moment Liu Xiyuan is also abnormally out of his mind.

To say that Xiao Lu is jealous of Yan Qing's promotion; Xu Kaida is because the only son left by the only daughter before, that is, the sixth prince who was later fostered under the queen's knee, died suddenly, which caused excessive grief, and became unsteady after too many things .

Rather, there is something to say.

What is Liu Xiyuan for?

Couldn't it be because my friend was transferred from the capital, and I felt that I was entrusted with a heavy responsibility as a warlord, and I was just an insignificant servant of the Ministry of Rites.

But his operation this time, not to mention gaining the favor and respect of the emperor, it would be good if he was not transferred away from the capital!

Suddenly, among the courtiers who were full of doubts, one or two people grasped a little something like a flash of inspiration.

Liu Xiyuan is not a reckless and impatient person, so several times stepping on the bottom line that would make the emperor hate him but not lose his head, could it be that he really wanted to get out of the capital?
This……

Could it be that something big is going to happen?

Several newcomers who were in the same period as Liu Xiyuan and those who had made good friends exchanged silent glances, and they all saw something bad in each other's eyes.

But to the surprise of the officials, the emperor didn't lose his temper!
The bold one secretly raised his head to look at the emperor's expression, but saw that although the emperor tried his best to conceal it, he still couldn't hide his sadness, and his whole aura weakened.

At that moment, in that moment of trance, people suddenly realized that the person sitting on the throne was not the emperor who was high above him, but a middle-aged father who had lost his son.

In fact, the emperor is only in his early forties this year, but his temples are already gray and old.

With such a description, it is no wonder that they think that the emperor has nothing to do.

Since the founding of Wu'an, the royal family seems to have been cursed. Every generation of emperors must step on the bones of all royal family members to sit on the throne.

It's not that every emperor has experienced cruel struggles for imperial power and fratricide, but that every emperor ascends the throne, there must be no one else left.

In the century since the founding of Wu'an, there has never been a single prince who can live until the new emperor ascends the throne.

As a result, the clan's courtyard in Wu'an has been vacant for a hundred years.

Among the existing members of the royal family, apart from the current emperor, only the emperor's heirs are left.

Now, the end of the battle for the crown prince will obviously have the same result.

I just don't know if the princesses and their descendants can escape this curse-like fate this time.

For more than a hundred years, the only one who has escaped this curse is Princess Jingxian, who was married away by King Rongjin with his wealth.

Some people speculate that this is probably because Princess Jingxian spent most of her time traveling with King Rongjin in foreign countries since she married Queen Rongjin, and she has never been poisoned by anyone.

In fact, everyone knows it well.

There is no curse, but it is just malicious harm by someone with a heart.

Princess Jingxian is the emperor's elder sister. The emperor was brought up by her since she was a child, and she single-handedly supported the superior. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is an untitled regent, but after the emperor ascended the throne, she immediately returned He was governed by the emperor, and King Suirongjin lived in seclusion in Daliang all the year round.

Thinking about it carefully, it is enough to make one's hair stand on end.

Thinking of this incident, all the ministers felt uneasy.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, the change of the throne is the most dangerous.

Now they don't have to choose to stand in line, and they don't have to choose anyway, but they are even more frightened.

Let me ask, how cruel and merciless is it for a family that will slaughter all siblings and their descendants after they ascend to power?
But these are the Wen family's own affairs, and these are also their guesses, which can't explain anything.

This cannot be a reason to deny the Wen family's contributions to Wu'an's stability over the past century, and it is even less likely to be a handle to bring down the Wen family's royal family.

For people like them, leaving a way out for themselves is the most important thing.

The ministers, who had their own thoughts, only wanted to go to the court as soon as possible and go home to clean up. If the situation was not right, they could run away immediately.

The emperor obviously lost the intention to continue listening to the quarrels of the ministers: "I'm tired, let's go."

In the end, Liu Xiyuan didn't get the answer as to how to deal with Wen Zhemao's body.

After the court, the ministers hurried on their way, but they also remembered to walk around Liu Xiyuan.

Liu Xiyuan looked at the ministers who used to come up with a few words to get close, but now he just looked over with his own eyes, which made them feel unlucky, hurriedly avoided his eyes and pretended not to see, and left in a hurry , can't help but find it funny and ironic.

Above the court hall is the most real place in the world.

Welcoming and sending, stepping on the high and holding the low, everyone has thousands of eyes and thousands of faces.

Now he finally understands why his father would rather be a master in Jicheng than an official in the court.

This court hall has been broken from the inside.

If you really want to change your appearance, you must have a strong medicine.

Liu Xiyuan looked at the four corners of the sky framed by the palace wall, feeling tired.

I used to feel that I was in the sky and the earth, and I had never seen the height of the temple, but now I am at the height of the temple, but I am sitting on the bottom of the well.

Liu Xiyuan lowered his eyes, and was about to leave when he bumped into a servant in a hurry.

"Master Liu, the Holy Spirit has a message for this slave to convey."

After the servant brought the words, he left in a hurry, leaving only Liu Xiyuan standing still, and looked back at the majestic Jinluan Hall.
