Today's Wen family is very lively, and officials in the capital pass by one after another.

He is well aware of their intentions, but he doesn't want to talk to them very much.

From the second impeachment memorial of Lord Wanfu, he had already guessed that Lord Wanfu was going to punish King Zhao.

Afterwards, he also went to find out about the situation. Knowing that King Zhao committed suicide, he thought that it would be good to deal with him severely.

It was even said that it would be better to just handicap King Zhao.

King Zhao is a little clever, but he has a vindictive personality. When he was fighting with King Ning in the past, people from King Ning's faction targeted him.

He would ignore it and try to get it back by all means. There were even several times when the court originally wanted to discuss important matters, but King Zhao ordered his own people to quarrel with King Ning's faction in the court.

In order to vent his anger, it is okay for such a person to be a prince, but if he is allowed to occupy that position, the court may not know what it will be like.

But back then when he first emerged, he was dealt with by Princess Wanfu, and he was beaten back to his original shape in an instant. With his personality, it would be impossible to say that he had no hatred in his heart.

The restless king had just fallen, and he felt that he had already won the victory, and he had not ascended to the position of crown prince, so he started to target Wanfu County Master and the Lu family.

If he is really allowed to take over, I am afraid that both the Wanfu princess and the Lu family will end in a dead end.

Whether it was because of business or selfishness, he very much hoped that Princess Wanfu would clean up this guy directly.

This is not a good candidate for the crown prince, let alone a good candidate for the successor.

In the evening, after seeing off the last colleague, Wen Songtao returned to the hall a little tired.

I have to say that it was a bit tiring to receive those officials this day, mainly because I was getting old.

"Father, what do these people mean?"

"Are they planning to draw a line with King Zhao?"

Wen Xuan asked suspiciously.

"Hmph, draw a line? Is it possible?"

"As long as King Zhao is in the court for a day, they will not be able to draw a clear line. It is nothing more than being frightened by the impeachment of Wanfu County Lord, and they want to turn the light into the dark and escape this catastrophe first."

"Now that King Ning has been abolished, and the third prince is still young, although His Majesty is still in his prime, it is impossible for the third prince to grow up without more than ten years."

"In more than ten years, no one can tell what changes will happen. Even if there are no changes, do you think that with King Zhao's character, he can let the third prince enter the court safely?"

"I'm afraid that even if the third prince enters the court at that time, he can't expect to get the support of too many important ministers, so the position of heir apparent will most likely fall on King Zhao."

"How could they pass up such a good opportunity?"

Wen Songtao still took a long-term view. The people who came here today have only expressed their views until now, which is enough to show what they think in their hearts, and they can be regarded as relatively staunch supporters of King Zhao.

And some of them have followed King Zhao for a long time. When they were fighting against King Ning, these people did not help King Zhao to make suggestions.

After paying so much, how could it be so easy to give up.

I am afraid that he has already communicated with King Zhao secretly, and wants to turn the light into darkness, so he hibernates first to preserve his strength.

Otherwise, let Wanfu County Lord continue to impeach like this, I am afraid that these people will have no good fruit to eat, then they will all fall, and that will be the biggest loss for King Zhao. I am afraid that no one dares to approach King Zhao.

"Since that's the case, why don't you bother with them."

As soon as Wenxuan's words fell, Wen Songtao shook his head and said, "It's absolutely impossible to ignore it. So many people who came here today are all important officials of the imperial court. If they don't care about it, wouldn't it be the same as offending them?"

"There are so many people, our Wen family can't afford to offend, especially there is a King Zhao who will take revenge."

"Now that the old man is here, the emperor will watch the old man's years of hard work to keep the Wen family, but what if the old man is gone? Facing the endless attacks from King Zhao's faction, the emperor can still protect us, is he willing to protect us?"

The Wen family came from a poor family, and their roots are not deep. The reason why they can have today's status is because of Wen Songtao's loyalty to Emperor Hongwen.

As for Wenxuan and Wenhao, although they are both in court, their positions are still too low, and they don't have much friendship with the emperor. If they offend these people and Wen Songtao is not around, the two brothers may not last long. Yes, the family will be destroyed.

"Go get someone to prepare some gifts. Tomorrow you and your second brother will go out of the city with me."

"Are you really going to talk about it? Can Master Wanfu agree? After all, this time King Zhao made the first move."

Wenxuan was not sure if Princess Wanfu would agree.

"It doesn't matter whether you agree or not. We just need to show an attitude and let those people who came here today know that we are here to help. Even if things don't work out, we can't blame us."

Now Wen Xuan understands, thinking about what Dad said to those people today, it seems that they are paving the way for these things.

I have to say that Jiang is still old and hot, but he has seen these things so thoroughly, and made the layout early.

It seems that I still have a lot to learn.

Wenxuan's qualifications are not very high. Although his ability to handle affairs is not bad, he still lacks some control over people's hearts and various forms.

"Those people have all gone to Wen's house?"

In the imperial study, Emperor Hongwen asked indifferently.

"Yes, they have all gone, and I don't know if Wenxiang can hold it."

"Wen Xiang is a smart man, he knows what to do."

Emperor Hongwen was still very optimistic about Wen Songtao.

This is a person with very good vision and ability, otherwise he would not have cultivated Wen Songtao regardless of the opposition of Duke Zhen and the Queen.

Facts have proved that he took this step rightly, and Wen Songtao has been of great help to him for a long time afterwards.

"Prince Jin and the others are going back to Beijing soon?"

"It's already set off. The people in the front and below sent back news. Because the criminals were escorted, they stopped and stopped along the way. It is estimated that they will not be able to reach the capital in ten days and a half months."

Emperor Hongwen nodded. The distance between the capital city and the Northland was not close at all, and it would take three or four days even if they traveled day and night at high speed.

Escorting the criminals, and the accompanying generals, returning in a mighty manner, it is naturally impossible to travel day and night, and it is normal to spend more time.

"There is still plenty of time, so you can go to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow so that their ministers can start preparing for the marriage between King Jin and Wanfu."

Wang De responded quickly.

The next day, after the morning court, Wen Songtao took his two sons out of the capital and went straight to Chengyuan Villa.

Recently, the situation in all aspects of Dongzhou has been very stable, and with another victory, there is not much going on in the court, so it is not a problem for the three of them to leave at the same time.
