The Concubine in the Coffin

Chapter 291 Be cautious about abolishing the prince
He stood up abruptly, Tao Hua's eyes were full of panic, "Destroy!"

"Destroy all! Suppress the news!" Feng Canglan must not see it!
"His Royal Highness, I'm afraid it won't work."

"The whole city is talking about it."

The strength of Zong Zhengjin's whole body seemed to be drained, and he sat down limply.

His complexion was pale.

The emperor snorted coldly, "The good deeds you did have left clues for people to find out and tell the world!"

Zong Zhengjin's mind was in a mess, and his heart was completely over.

It's all over.

Lan Lan was already brooding over the incident of killing people with a knife, but now these incidents broke out...

The prince was very troubled by this matter.

In the early morning of the next day, the officials were the first to stand up and say that the prince's virtue was not good enough, not only to assassinate the regent princess, but also to assassinate the regent king.

Zong Zhengjin said that he wanted to cut off his tongue.

A spokesperson stood up, and several elderly ministers behind him also stood up and echoed.

Several old ministers have always supported the prince. The prince has always had a good image, modest and polite, neither arrogant nor impatient.

But now he found that he had been cheated, and immediately stood up with sharp words.

It's like fans in the entertainment circle who take off their fans and step back, every sentence directly pokes their hearts and lungs.

The prince, who was originally satisfied by everyone, is now criticized by thousands of people.

Others proposed to abolish the prince.

It is no small matter for the prince to poison the emperor's uncle and aunt.

The emperor, who had been cultivated with great difficulty, naturally disagreed, and the court ministers were targeting him for several days.

The people on the street also changed from disbelief at the beginning to firm belief.

After all, there are a few really innocent people in the palace.

The common people felt that they had been deceived, and their fighting power exploded. Thousands of people knelt at the gate of the palace, begging the emperor to abolish the prince.

It's just that the prince dared to kill the emperor's uncle and aunt. He must be a tyrant when he ascends the throne in the future, and the century-old foundation of the Xingyun Kingdom may be destroyed in one fell swoop.

The sound became louder and louder, and there were a large number of people kneeling at the gate of the palace every day.

Organized and disciplined, there are four waves of people, one in the morning, one in the afternoon, one in the evening, and one in the middle of the night.

The palace was surrounded by water, and the courtiers went to court in the morning, and the people begged them to ask the emperor to abolish the prince.

This battle is almost unprecedented.

In the end, the emperor who firmly refused had to be shaken under the coercion of the people and courtiers.

I plan to abolish the prince first, wait for a period of time to calm down, and then find a chance to re-establish him.

Zong Zhengjin had a panoramic view of the emperor's wavering.

Since the mask was torn off, Zong Zhengjin didn't pretend at all.

The whole person became gloomy, looking at people with a gloomy feeling.

The courtiers standing with him did not dare to vent their breath.

After retiring from the court, the emperor called Zong Zhengjin aside to express his thoughts alone.

Zong Zhengjin lowered his head from beginning to end, his whole body was gloomy.

When he heard the abolished prince, he stood up again, but he didn't nod or agree.

Seeing that the former gentle and refined prince had turned into a vicious poisonous snake, the emperor sighed and asked Zong Zhengjin to step down first.

The imperial decree to abolish the crown prince did not come down, and Zong Zhengjin returned to the East Palace.

The court ladies and eunuchs around were trembling, not daring to look at the present prince.

Yun Sang waited in the hall, seeing the gloomy aura lingering around Zong Zhengjin's body, the gentleness of the past had long since disappeared in Taohua's eyes, only the coldness of prey remained.

With a light glance, I feel my scalp tingling.

Yun Sang clenched her hands tightly, a trace of regret flashed in her eyes.

If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't have...

Originally, he wanted to completely cut off the possibility of Feng Canglan and the prince, but unexpectedly, Feng Canglan didn't follow the routine and went to the newspaper to publicize it.

"His Royal Highness." Yun Sang called out respectfully.

Zong Zhengjin glanced lightly with his calm eyes, Yun Sang only felt a chill creeping up his back.

"Plan ahead." His cold voice sounded.

Yun Sang frowned and wanted to say something, but finally closed her mouth.

Zong Zhengjin had a very uncomfortable life recently, but Feng Canglan lived a very comfortable life.

She contributed to the incident at the gate of the palace, and even wrote about it.

But no one can find her head.

Since someone personally sent the evidence to the door and led her to find it, it is natural that I can't let this kind person down.

During this period of time, Zong Zhengyu seemed very busy.

Still the same, neither of them bowed their heads.

When they bumped into each other in the garden, Feng Canglan raised his head and walked away like a proud white swan.

Who is not a tsundere little princess?

She apologized, but it's fine if she doesn't accept it.

Zong Zhengyu lowered his eyebrows, showing no emotion.

Leaving the Prince Regent's Mansion, Feng Canglan ran straight to the gate of the palace.

She got the news that the emperor had drafted an imperial decree to abolish the prince.

Of course I want to watch the excitement.

At the gate of the palace, Feng Canglan chose a tea house with a relatively good location, and sat in front of the window to drink tea, so that he could spy on the bustle below.

The emperor didn't even care much about his own reputation, but he really cared about the reputation of Zong Zhengjin, the heir apparent.

The purpose of alienating Zong Zhengjin since he was a child was to hide him under the stormy wind and waves. Compared with the king Xiao who was in the limelight at that time and was much loved, we can see his intentions.

Mingli didn't care and let Zong Zhengjin pretend to be submissive, but it was actually for protection.

In the imperial palace and harem, it is most likely for brothers to fight against each other.

In order to protect, the emperor kept Zong Zhengjin in the cold and kept him safe.

Later, for the sake of Zong Zhengjin's reputation, bad news was blocked many times.

Thinking of what Zong Zhengjin had done in the past, Feng Canglan Qiushui narrowed her eyes deeply, with a sneer in her eyes.

The emperor valued this reputation, and she was about to destroy the reputation that she had created.

Zong Zhengjin took a fancy to the position of crown prince, so she abolished his East Palace crown prince.

She got the news that the emperor will probably announce the abolition of the crown prince's decree today.

Feng Canglan took a sip carefully while holding the teacup, waiting for the news to spread.

Originally today, it was as Feng Canglan thought.

The emperor's decree to abolish the prince has been drawn up, and it is just when the decree is being announced.

All the ministers in the Jinluan Palace changed their minds.

"Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be investigated strictly. If you make false accusations with empty teeth, you will hastily convict the prince."

The minister who spoke was very powerful in abolishing the prince.

As a result, the rhetoric was changed in just one day.

After him, another highly respected veteran of the two dynasties stepped forward.

His temples are grizzled, his wrinkled face contains the vicissitudes of life, his back is slightly curved, he seems to be more than ten years older than yesterday, "Your Majesty, this is just a side story of the newspaper, and there is no substantive evidence."

"The newspaper uses its own popularity to put such a hat on the prince, and its heart can be punished."

"The abolition of the prince needs to be carefully investigated."

A group of ministers who were standing neatly usually stepped forward and said in agreement, "Please check clearly, Your Majesty."

On the dragon chair, the emperor's sharp eyes were calm and probing, and he glanced at the ministers who came out to intercede.

These people were filled with righteous indignation and accusations yesterday, but today they suddenly changed their tune.

The emperor's pupils were deeply narrowed, and his eyes turned to Zong Zhengjin who was standing in the front without saying a word.
