The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

In Hulong Temple, the crown prince and the eighth prince had just finished their morning class with the monks.

Lu Cong took a letter and handed it to the prince. After the prince took it and read it, he burst out laughing: "Hahahahaha, good!"

Seeing that the prince suddenly became so happy, the eighth prince hurriedly asked, "Brother, did the matter of Li Chuan get exposed?"

"That's right." The prince handed the letter in his hand to the eighth prince, "Look."

The Eighth Prince took the letter and read it carefully.After reading it, he also laughed out loud: "This is really great."

"Eighth brother, you really hit the mark." The prince said with joy on his face, "You said before that Li Chuan would not be able to resist going to Yihong Courtyard to have a good time, but I still don't believe it."

"Li Chuan is fond of wine and sex. Every time he returns to Beijing, he will go to Yihong Courtyard to have a good time. This time, when he returns to Beijing, he often stays in Yihong Courtyard." The eighth prince said with a smile, "Although Daiwang warned him During the death day of the first empress, he couldn’t go to Yihong Courtyard, but Li Chuan could bear it for a day or two, but couldn’t bear it for several days. Besides, he felt that Dai Wang was deeply loved by his father, and with Dai Wang protecting him, he would definitely be fine.”

"You're right." The prince raised his hand and patted the Eighth Prince's shoulder, "You're still careful."

"Li Chuan was demoted to a commoner by his father. Although the acting king will let him continue to stay in the army, he must not be able to accept this blow." The eighth prince laughed, "From a proud fifth-rank general to an unknown pawn, Li Chuan is bound to be devastated, and the acting king will lose a general."

The prince nodded, and immediately thought of something, he asked the eighth prince, "Do you think it is possible for us to bribe Li Chuan?"

"Eighth brother, your move is really wonderful!" The prince said with a smile on his face, "Eighth brother, you really helped me a lot this time."

"Dai Wang said that he didn't know. Seeing Li Chuan's face looked bad, he really thought he was sick. This excuse is reasonable. Father dotes on him on weekdays, so he naturally believes what he said." The eighth prince mocked.

Qian Songtao and Zhai Gui stood aside, while Li Chuan knelt on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face.He was beaten by Qian Songtao and the others.

"What's this."

"The family will be fine." Mrs. Kong regretted that she hadn't arranged a marriage for her little daughter earlier, otherwise she wouldn't have fallen to this point now.

"Eighth brother, is there any way to deal with Qian Songtao and Di Gui?"

"It's possible that Li Chuan was demoted, and he won't be able to resume his original post if he stays in Daiwang's barracks for a while." The eighth prince said, "Daiwang was reprimanded by his father because of Li Chuan, so it's impossible for Daiwang to have no regard for Li Chuan." Complaints. In order to teach Li Chuan a lesson, Dai Wang will not let him be promoted for the time being. Li Chuan may not hate Dai Wang, but if we fan the flames from the sidelines, Li Chuan will definitely hate Dai Wang."

Hearing what the eighth prince said, the prince couldn't help but look forward to it.

"Although the father did not punish the acting king, he was humiliated when he was severely reprimanded in front of civil and military officials."

Mrs. Kong was by her side, copying Buddhist scriptures with her.

"Okay, big brother won't say that in the future." The prince was very moved after hearing what the eighth prince said. "Brother will not be polite to you in the future, and you should not be polite to him, just tell him what you want."

The eighth prince probably guessed what the prince wanted to say, "Brother, just wait and watch the show."

The prince nodded slightly: "I know." As he said that, he showed a look of resignation on his face, "Father is partial to acting as king, so he just scolded him, and did not punish him."

"Okay, I'm waiting to see the good show on behalf of the palace."

"With big brother here, I'm sure I'll be fine." The Eighth Prince said with a very solemn expression, "Big brother, don't say that you are thanks to my help."

The prince's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the expression on his face became very determined.He clenched his hands into fists and said, "Yes, I want to get it all back."

"When Li Chuan falls to the bottom, brother, if you extend a helping hand to him, he will definitely be grateful and loyal to you."

"Brother, Dai Wang has already lost one general, and he will cherish the other two generals even more. He will never let them have any accidents. It will be very difficult to deal with them. We can only deal with them later when we find an opportunity."

"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely not be polite to you." The eighth prince said with a smile.

"Brother, although the father did not punish the Dai Wang, the reputation of the Dai Wang has been damaged among the people and the world's literati and students." The eighth prince smiled meaningfully, "Li Chuan is a general under the Dai Wang. Words and deeds represent the Dai Wang in the eyes of the people of the world. Li Chuan's disrespect to the former empress means that the Dai Wang disrespects the former empress."

The eighth prince comforted the prince and said: "Brother, you will get back all the grievances you suffered before."

The prince nodded lightly and said: "That's the only way." After finishing speaking, he thought of Kong Taichang's youngest daughter marrying the acting king as a side concubine. "Kong Taichang refused to marry his father before, but was rejected by his father. The father was determined to let Kong Taichang's youngest daughter marry the Dai Wang. My uncle said that this matter should not be taken care of, and let Kong Taichang's youngest daughter marry the Dai Wang smoothly, but I After thinking about it, I feel that this is still not a good thing. Eighth brother, what do you think?"

"Brother, you have to wait patiently. You have to wait for Li Chuan to fall to the bottom before extending a helping hand to him."

The word "grievance" made the prince feel sore in his heart, "Eighth brother, only you understand the grievance in my heart."

"It seems that we can only do it slowly." Seeing that Li Chuan was demoted to a commoner, the crown prince greedily wanted to get rid of Qian Songtao and Zhai Gui as well.

"Yao'er, mother plans to go back to the mansion tomorrow, and you will be alone in this nunnery from now on."

"Brother, we really don't need to care about this matter. When Kong Taichang's youngest daughter marries into Dai Wang's mansion, the back house of Dai Wang's mansion will become unsettled. At that time, the relationship between Xuan Pinghou and Kong Taichang will also become rivalry." The eighth prince He said, "Wouldn't it be better to let them fight among themselves and kill each other?"

"Qian Songtao and Zhai Gui are more disciplined than Li Chuan, so it is impossible to deal with them during this period of time." The Eighth Prince analyzed, "Now that something happened to Li Chuan, Qian Songtao and Zhai Gui will be more cautious. "

"In the final analysis, father still favors him." The prince's eyes were full of jealousy.

"Eighth brother, I haven't been this happy for a long time." Ever since Dai Wang returned to the capital, the prince has been blocked by a stone.This rock can neither go up nor go down.Now seeing that Dai Wang lost a general and his reputation was ruined, the stone stuck in his heart finally dissipated, making him feel comfortable from head to heart.

"That's what I said, but in my heart..." The prince couldn't tell what it was like.

In the Bodhi Nunnery not very far from Hulong Temple, Jing An is in her room, seriously copying Buddhist scriptures.

"Brother, it's polite for you to say that. I'm your younger brother, so I should help you." The eighth prince said seriously, "Besides, you have always been the elder brother who helped me. If there is no elder brother, I might have died a long time ago." gone."

"Mother, you can go back at ease, I will take care of myself." Since she was shaved and became a monk, she only felt that her whole body and mind became very relaxed, as if the shackles on her body were removed. "Mother, if something happens to the house, you must inform me."

After he finished speaking, he thought of the other two confidant generals under Dai Wang.

At this time, in Dai Wang's mansion.

"What do you want to tell you? You have already become a monk, and you have cut off the world of mortals. The affairs of your family have nothing to do with you." Mrs. Kong said solemnly, "Since you have become a monk, you should pay homage to the Buddha. Once you take care of family affairs, your family will Not only will it be a waste, but it will also affect the family, understand?"

These words reached the prince's heart, "Okay, I'll wait."

"Brother, you have been wronged."

Kong Yao knew it in her heart, but she... under Mrs. Kong's stern gaze, she could only nod.

The eighth prince didn't say anything to the prince.What they have to worry about now is that Kong Taichang themselves will destroy the marriage.

Hearing this, the prince finally understood the real purpose of the Eighth Prince's move.

"Previously, Marquis Xuan Ping campaigned for Dai Wang to quell the rebellion in Liangzhou, which made Dai Wang a lot of fame among the people, but Li Chuan's incident will make all the things that Xuan Ping Hou and the others have done go to waste."

"What nonsense, you will not die, you will live well." The prince helped the eighth prince at the beginning because he felt sorry for him, and had no other purpose.Later, he helped the eighth prince, but he didn't ask the eighth prince to repay his kindness.

Dai Wanghei had a serious face, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura.

"You go back to this king's fief immediately." Dai Wang felt that if Qian Songtao and the others were kept in Beijing, there would be another accident.

"Your Highness, we have all gone back, who will protect you in Beijing?"

"Your Highness, Lao Qian and I have to leave one person to protect you." Di Gui said, "We are worried about leaving you alone in the capital."

Dai Wang is not very safe in the capital.

Prince: Cool, so cool!
