The heavens are kings, starting with Qing Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 176
Li Chengqian ate with vegetables, just like ordinary people eating, but Fan Xian seemed a little cautious at the moment.

And Li Chengze was too lazy to care about all those things, he had already written all the papers for the feudal clan, no matter what dental caries there was between Emperor Qing and the crown prince, what did it have to do with him?
Emperor Qing glanced at Li Chengze, with a bit of disgust in his tone.

"I haven't had a good taste since I was a child, and now, I still have this virtue!"

As he said that, he glanced at Li Chengqian, and said in an inexplicable tone: "The prince was always rigid when he was young, but now he is much more casual."

Li Chengqian ate on his own, without saying a word.

Instead, Li Chengze responded with an embarrassed smile.

At this moment, Emperor Qing looked at Fan Xian softly, and said, "All these years, you've been living outside, and it's my father's dereliction of duty. How about this meal? Is this food good for you?"

Hearing this, Fan Xian quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and said in response: "My lord, my son's life is pretty good, and I can't blame His Majesty. As for the food, it is worthy of being prepared by the royal chef in the palace. It is all delicious. Naturally it fits."

Emperor Qing smiled, and asked instead: "I heard that you joined the prince's recruiting hall before, how do you feel?"

Li Chengze paused slightly while eating, and felt that the atmosphere became a little more depressing.

Fan Xian swallowed a mouthful of spit, and said slowly: "There are a lot of talents in the recruiting hall, and my son is lucky enough to join, so he will naturally enjoy it."

"Enjoy it?" Emperor Qing repeated his words over and over again, but he did not pursue Fan Xian any longer, but said, "Eat them all, continue to eat, this is a family feast, I just ask casually."

Fan Xian responded, heaved a sigh of relief, and said no more.

At this time, Li Chengqian put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and said: "My ministers have finished eating, and I will watch them eat with Your Majesty."

At this time, he seemed to have thought of something, and said: "By the way, I heard that the second elder brother was on Jiufan's booklet, but Your Majesty has read it?"

Emperor Qing showed a proper surprise on his face, looked at Li Chengze and said, "Second brother, what's the matter? Why, you're not used to staying in the capital?"

Li Chengze quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks, knelt down on the ground, and said: "Your Majesty is here in the capital, and I am naturally happy to be able to stay by His Majesty's side. However, my son is not young, and according to the ancestral system, he should leave the capital to become a feudal vassal." If you stay in the capital for a long time, you may be criticized and hurt the national system."

Emperor Qing said calmly: "I didn't expect you to have such a great influence in the capital, and you can even harm the state?" He lowered his eyes and said: "Forget it, wait until I read the scripture."

There was a sneer at the corner of Li Chengqian's mouth. The note on the dignified second prince is still such a big event. It is impossible for the Ministry of Education to stop it halfway, and it is impossible for Lin Ruofu to press the note. Emperor Qing must have seen this at the first time. Copybook.

Now it seems that it is just thinking about procrastinating, and it is best to let it go.

Perhaps Emperor Qing also understood that it was impossible for Li Chengze to compete with him for the position of crown prince, but as long as Li Chengze was around, at least the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would not be able to swarm to serve under the Eastern Palace.

When the two sides have reached a certain delicate balance at the level of force, the power of the DPRK is a bit too prominent.

However, Li Chengqian had already made up his mind that he would leave the capital after a while. Although he was not afraid of what Li Chengze might do, one more thing was better than one less thing. Naturally, the less variables the better.

So, as soon as Emperor Qing's words fell, he asked directly: "So Your Majesty agrees that the second elder brother will become a vassal?"

Emperor Qing's face turned slightly cold, and he said, "Are you questioning me?"

Li Chengqian looked at him with calm eyes, and said: "After the prince becomes an adult, it is a rule to go to the fiefdom to become a vassal. Is there anything else to discuss about this matter? Or is it that your majesty is dissatisfied with his son and minister and wants to abolish him?" The crown prince of the minister, keep the second brother to take over the East Palace?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengze trembled all over, and hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, not daring to say more, Fan Xian's heart beat violently, and he subconsciously held his breath.

What's the situation?Prince, are you going to flip the table?

Emperor Qing stared deeply at Li Chengqian, becoming more and more unfamiliar with his son's behavior.

After a long time, he suppressed the boiling emotion in his heart, and said slowly: "The prince has spoken."

As he said that, he glanced at Li Chengze and said, "Forget it, since you don't want to stay in the capital, after three days, clean up and go to fiefdom."

Li Chengze kowtowed and said gratefully: "I thank Your Majesty Long En."

He was finally able to withdraw from this bottomless vortex in Kyoto.

His Majesty can't afford to mess with him, and neither can the Crown Prince.

Here, it is really aggrieved.

Fan Xian also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but the surprise in his heart became more and more intense.

The crown prince confronted Emperor Qing, but in the end it was Emperor Qing who relented?

But thinking of the Barrett sniper rifle that the crown prince got from him, and the terrible fact that the crown prince himself is a great master, Emperor Qing's choice to subdue might not be a wise decision.

And at this moment, in these simple conversations, he could see the current situation of Qing Kingdom more and more clearly.

Li Chengqian got up and helped Li Chengze up, patted the dust off his body, and said, "Don't worry, when Second Brother leaves, I will definitely see him off personally."

Li Chengze cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Li Chengqian waved his hand, looked at Emperor Qing and said, "Your Majesty, I think the banquet is almost finished. How about letting Fan Xian and Second Brother go first? I still have something to say to Your Majesty."

Emperor Qing said lightly: "No need, I'm not an outsider, just speak up if you have anything to say."

Li Chengqian sat back down again, and said, "That's fine, I'll just say it straight."

He looked at Emperor Qing and said: "The battle against Qi has ended, and the envoys from Northern Qi and Dongyi are already on their way. Not surprisingly, the city of Nanjing is already in the possession of Qing."

Emperor Qing's eyes suddenly sharpened three points, and said: "Why, you want Nanjing?"

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Your minister has not accomplished an inch, how dare you think so?

However, my son heard that there was a general named Zhao Yun among the Qing army, who was the first in every battle and made countless contributions. It was because of him that he was able to break the city in one battle.

As we all know, the city of Nanjing is so strong that it is rare in the world, and there is only one example of being able to break the city in one battle. With such credit, such bravery, it is not an exaggeration to be named a second-rank general of the town. "

Before the Battle of Lishan, Zhao Yun was already a Zhonglang general of the fourth rank. He made great achievements twice and was promoted to the second rank, which is completely justified.

Especially the credit for capturing the city of Nanjing, it's not impossible to get a first-rank if you really want to talk about it.

However, Li Chengqian spoke lightly, but Emperor Qing's complexion could no longer be controlled, and suddenly became extremely ugly.
