The emperor replied: "According to the clues I found, the real culprit behind your assassination was not directed at the Peng family. But the results of Marble's question were not consistent with what I found. At this time, the scandal of the Peng family was exposed. , It’s hard for me not to doubt it.”

Unexpectedly, the emperor found clues. In fact, the prince also had speculations in his mind, but Prince An was far away in Shu County, so there was no need to worry.

The prince asked: "Who do the clues my father found point to?"

"Since Father knew this, why did he still confiscate Peng's house and put him in jail?"

The emperor looked into the distance and replied: "I have no conclusive evidence, only some clues and speculations that are not enough to convict, so I won't tell you anything."

Then he added: "As for the Peng family, I have prepared to pass the throne to you. Since you think you can't keep it, you can do whatever you want. Besides, the Peng family should be punished for doing such a thing!"

The prince didn't feel uncomfortable at all about being caught, but he felt that he still had to learn more from his father.

The emperor then said: "I only hope that Dajing, Haiyanheqing, which I have worked hard all my life to manage, will become stronger and richer in your hands. Remember, conspiracy is one part, and the more important part is to make people happy." The people are stable and prosperous.”

The prince heard this and said seriously: "My son, I will obey my father's teachings."

The emperor relaxed and said with a smile: "Okay, Jin'er, I have told you everything I should tell you. I have already made a calculation with Qintian Supervisor. The eighteenth day of next month will be a good day, and I will take the Zen position on that day." with you."

The prince was caught off guard and said: "Father..."

The emperor waved his hand: "No need to say more, I have already decided. After the Zen throne, I will move to the Xishan Palace."

As he said this, the emperor's expression showed a bit of expectation.

"As for the Peng Mansion, you can do whatever you want. I don't want to have to deal with this anymore."

Until he returned to the East Palace, the prince still didn't come back to his senses.

The emperor suddenly gave him a big shock. To be honest, he was not ready for this. Although his father said he was ready to meditate on him, he thought it would take three to five years. After all, his father was still young.

Shu Yuwan saw this and said worriedly: "Ajin, what's wrong with you?"

The prince calmed down and told Shu Yuwan what had happened.

Shu Yuwan was not as reserved as the prince, and instantly showed a big smile: "Ajin, this is a good thing. In this way, we don't have to worry anymore."

Shu Yuwan worshiped all the gods and Buddhas in her heart.

Seeing Shu Yuwan so happy, the prince couldn't help but laugh and joked: "I am even happier looking at you than I am."

Shu Yuwan said playfully: "Your Highness has become the emperor, and I will be the queen. The queen is the most noble woman in the world. This future queen is different from other queens. Even the husband of the emperor does not need to be with other women." Sharing, can I be unhappy?"

The prince was very happy. Yuwan's attitude towards him that the two of them were dispensable for the rest of their lives was no longer the case.

...

In the morning of the next day, the emperor officially issued an imperial edict that on the eighteenth day of the next month, he would formally abdicate and marry the prince.

For a time, the whole court was in an uproar.

All the ministers tried their best to retain the emperor, but several important ministers knew that the emperor had already made up his mind and gave up after a few words of persuasion.

Sure enough, no matter what the courtiers said, the emperor just said "I have made up my mind" and ended the discussion.

As soon as the court came to court, the prince was surrounded by ministers, as well as people from the Shu Mansion. The Duke of Wei looked at the Shu Mansion, which was about to surpass his own, with a smile on his face, but he felt uncomfortable in his heart.

The prince is about to become the emperor. If at that time, the prince married Wushuang as his concubine, and the prince ascends the throne next month, he can unite with other ministers and use Shu's second marriage as an excuse to ask the prince to change the name to a queen!

Now, all I can do is look at the scenery of Shu Mansion.

In the future, when the Shu family is granted the title of empress, and the emperor's eldest son is with him, no one will take their prince's palace seriously.

Look, these wallflowers are now fawning over a mere servant!

Concubine Xian and Concubine Zhang felt as if they were struck by lightning when they received the news.

Concubine Xian was enlightened and said to the stunned fifth prince in the palace: "No wonder the purpose of dealing with our Peng family is to pave the way for his precious son!"

He said with a rare sinister look in his eyes: "Just to pave the way for the crown prince to ascend the throne, he destroyed the Peng family. Your Majesty is truly extremely ruthless towards me!"

Turning to the fifth prince, they no longer had the same mood as before. They acted like a loving mother and a filial son, and said directly: "As soon as the prince ascends the throne, and you are not old enough to leave the palace and establish a palace, from now on you will only be in your family." The prince’s brother is asking for a living!”

The fifth prince did not take up the matter. As early as Concubine Xian asked him to plead for the Peng family, but he refused to go, the two of them had already fallen out. The fifth prince understood clearly that Concubine Xian and the Peng family no longer had any big differences. After all, he couldn't put himself in it for them.

Even if the prince ascends the throne, he can continue to be the innocent and harmless emperor's brother without any threat.

There is really no chance in the future, and he is still a wealthy prince. There is no need to involve himself in the Peng Mansion that is destined to be useless.

So he replied with shame: "Yes! It's all my fault that my son is useless and not loved by his father."

When the virtuous concubine saw the fifth prince's behavior, she knew she couldn't instigate him.

He is small, but he is very thoughtful.

Concubine Xian didn't want to break up, so she reluctantly replied: "I can't blame you, you can only rely on yourself from now on!"

After so many years of planning, the emperor broke all the plans.

The wise concubine hated the emperor's cruelty, but she had nothing to do.

It can only be dormant temporarily.

When the gap between the power of the enemy and the enemy is too big, it is the best choice to hold back the anger for a while.

The same is true for Concubine Zhang.

After the incident of the prince poisoning, Concubine Zhang has been under house arrest until now, and has been gradually abandoned by the forces around her.

Concubine Zhang secretly cursed the emperor in the palace, and then used her remaining power to quickly send the news to Prince An of Shu County.
