The fat peasant girl wants to counterattack

Chapter 84 The rift is about to arise

The emperor took the memorial and after looking at it for a few times, he threw the memorial in the eldest prince's face.

"First Prince, this is your good grandfather and uncle. Take a good look at it for yourself!"

The eldest prince immediately knelt down and said, "Father, please calm down. Listen to me, this is all slander. It's all slander! My family members are all people who abide by their duties. How could they do such a corrupt and perverted act?" thing!"

Marquis Chengyuan and his son did not have high official positions and were not qualified to go to court. Therefore, the emperor vented all his anger on the eldest prince.

Although there is an element of showmanship, the emperor is really angry. How can someone who can't restrain his own mother-in-law restrain the courtiers and the world well?
He also intends to get involved in the position of prince, where is the dignity?
There is such irrefutable evidence that he still defends himself. With such little ability, he still dares to pay for someone to kill someone. This is really a disgrace to our ancestors!

He originally planned to take the opportunity to punish the eldest prince today, but now the eldest prince's performance really disappointed him, so he scolded him:

"The eldest prince, as a prince, you do not want to restrain your maternal family, allow them to take bribes, bend the law, act arbitrarily, and ignore the laws of the state. You are really incompetent and have wasted my expectations and teachings for you. I order you to go back to your house and meditate. Let’s go through it until we figure it out!”

The emperor's rebuke was not harsh. A word of "incompetence" was enough to drive the eldest prince into dust, which was equivalent to ending the eldest prince's hope of competing for the throne. How could the future prince be an incompetent person?
Moreover, the emperor ordered him to return home to meditate on his past, which was equivalent to a disguised form of grounding, and it was indefinite.

The eldest prince was very frightened and begged for mercy again and again, "Father, I don't know, but I have been wronged. Please forgive me!"

The courtiers of the eldest prince's party also jumped out to plead for mercy: "Your Majesty, it is still unknown what happened to Marquis Chengyuan and his son. It has yet to be verified. And according to my understanding, although Marquis Chengyuan and his son have not done much, they must not dare to Such a disregard for the law. Even if it is true as the censor said, it has nothing to do with the eldest prince. The eldest prince is diligent and studious and busy with government affairs. He does not have much time to restrain his wife's family. Please, for the sake of the eldest prince's diligence, your majesty, Please spare the eldest prince this time."

If you really want to ground someone, it will be difficult to recover.

They and the eldest prince are in the same boat. Only if the eldest prince is good can they be good. If the boat of the eldest prince sinks, they will not be able to protect themselves.

Therefore, even though I know that the Holy One is angry, I still have to ask for this love.

Otherwise, what's the use of following a prince who will never ascend to the throne?
As expected, the Holy Spirit became even more angry.

snort!The eldest prince even formed a clique for personal gain. Look, this is what happened!

Thinking of this, he said in a strange tone: "The eldest prince is so prestigious. Look, there are so many beloved ministers interceding for the eldest prince. Why, do you really think that the eldest prince is wronged, or what? Are you willing to plead for Chengyuan? The Marquis Mansion will serve as a guarantee. If the evidence of the Marquis Chengyuan Mansion’s crime is confirmed, how about you demote your official position?”

Now the courtier was really panicked and fell to his knees on the ground.

They all thought in unison that the Holy Emperor really planned to punish the eldest prince and would not allow anyone to plead for mercy at all.

The eldest prince was also panicked.

My father is too cruel. He wants to break his wings. After this, who else dares to follow him.

Now that the matter has come to this, I can only cut off my arm, and said cruelly: "Father, it's all my son's fault. All the ministers have good intentions. They must not be implicated because of my son's affairs. It is the fault of my son." Take it upon yourself and ask for permission from the Emperor Father. I will personally go and verify these crimes of the Marquis Chengyuan Mansion. If they are true, I will not tolerate them!"

After saying that, he closed his eyes and said in his heart, Mother, I'm sorry, I have tried my best, and only in this way can I protect myself.

The emperor was satisfied.

His original intention was not to stop the eldest prince from competing for the heir apparent. Now was not the time. He just wanted to make the queen and the eldest prince feel heartbroken.

It was a warning to them, so that they could get busy and take care of themselves, so how could they have time to think about harming Yu'er?
And once the eldest prince goes to investigate the Chengyuan Hou Mansion, there will definitely be a rift between the queen and the eldest prince.Although the Chengyuan Hou Mansion is full of trash, it is the Queen's natal family after all. Who wouldn't like her natal family? No matter how trashy her natal family is, the Queen will definitely not want anything to happen to her natal family.

The eldest prince is different. After all, he is just a maternal wife. His feelings are limited and of no great use. Instead, he is a burden. Taking this opportunity to remove him can be regarded as removing a pustule.

Now that her son is going to inspect her parents' house in person, the queen will definitely be in pain as if her heart is being torn out and her bones are being torn out. Besides, this is her son's request, and she might even hate her son in her heart.

The emperor didn't want to be so cruel. Although he didn't like the queen, he was still a wife and had some affection for her. The queen had worked hard over the years without any merit. He was not a heartless person.

It was the empress who acted cruelly and unjustly, and actually tried to assassinate Yu'er. If Yu'er really died, it would be him and Concubine Rong who would bear the pain of having her heart ripped out.

Since you are unkind, you can't blame others for being unjust. Otherwise, if you let it go, you will really be feeding a tiger into trouble, and you don't know what things can be done.

He is a benevolent king, not a weak one. As a king, he must have the world in mind, tolerate what others cannot tolerate, and tolerate what others cannot tolerate. However, he must also kill decisively at critical moments. If he continues to make decisions, he will suffer chaos. .

He can tolerate a mediocre queen, but he can never tolerate a vicious queen. If the queen is mediocre and vicious, then her position as queen has come to an end.

People must be self-aware and not dream about things that do not belong to them, otherwise they will bring disaster upon themselves.

After going to court, the eldest prince walked heavily along the palace road.

He didn't dare to see his mother. Even if he didn't, he knew what her mother would say.

But now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. If he does not personally deal with the Chengyuan Hou Mansion, he will be the one who will be implicated. Moreover, the Chengyuan Hou Mansion is responsible for itself. Even if it is verified by others, it will not escape.

He comforted himself in this way and felt better.

Yes, it's not that he is unkind and ungrateful, it's that the Marquis of Chengyuan himself doesn't care about feathers and is corrupt and perverting the law. He is to blame.

Not only did he bring about his own destruction, but he also almost got him involved. What's the use of having such a wife? It's better not to have one at all.

The queen mother loves him deeply, more than anything, and I believe she can understand him.

When everything is over, he can go to his mother's palace to plead guilty. By then, it will have become an established fact, and it will be irreversible no matter how much the mother cries.

The queen here has already received the news and is anxiously waiting for the eldest prince to see her in the palace.

When the eldest prince comes, she will have a good discussion with him and think about how to make the sins of the Chengyuan Marquis Mansion a major issue and a trivial matter.

She was satisfied with the eldest prince's quick wit, and her years of teaching were not in vain.

In that situation, it was a wise move for the son to come up with this method to stabilize the Holy One first and avoid being grounded.

As long as the Holy One is stabilized and the son goes to investigate the Chengyuan Marquis Mansion in person, it will not be the son who has the final say on whether he is guilty or not. How can the Holy One really hold on to him?
