"Lord Shoufu, the prince's newborn calf is too reckless. As the first assistant of the dynasty, you must not let the prince go on so presumptuously."

Sun Boli, minister of the Dali Temple, said with righteous indignation.

to one side, Shang Shu Teng Huaiyi of the Ministry of punishment also said, "Lord Sun is right. After all, the first place in the court is the most important. If this young prince is allowed to misbehave like this, how can he become decent" In the future, when the emperor recovered, he saw that the capital was made miasma and grievances by the prince. I'm afraid he would be angry again. Now we have to take some measures against the prince. "

Zhao Xuanji closed his eyes slightly, and he said faintly to Wang Teng-Huan, a bachelor of Jianji Hall, who is also a cabinet colleague, who was bowing his tea beside him, "Brother, what do you think of this"

Wang Teng-Huan gently put down the teacup and said, "the prince is young and has just taken over the power of supervising the country. He only knows how to use the power to exercise power, but he does not know that behind the power is the responsibility. As the courtiers of the imperial court, we should assist the prince and let the prince understand that governing the world cannot be solved by killing a single word."

"what's more, if you and I remain silent, the second Xu Changqing will appear."

Zhao Xuanji looked dark when he heard this.

he said slowly, "in that case, tomorrow we will go to the Eastern Palace together to meet the crown prince and inform him of his interests. Let the prince give up his right to supervise the country for the time being. We'd better first learn how to deal with the imperial government, and then talk about other things."

conspiring in the study, several adults belonging to Zhao Xuanji's inner circle looked at each other and smiled one after another, and then they saluted Zhao Xuanji neatly and uniformly:

"We will obey the order of the first assistant."

Zhao Xuanji nodded impassively and said slowly, "since we have work to do tomorrow, please go back and have a rest."

others saw that Zhao Xuanji had given the eviction order, so they all got up and said goodbye.

after everyone had left, Zhao Xuanji sat in his chair and pondered for a moment, then got up and wrote a note at his desk and patted his palm. Outside the

door, a poker-faced guard quietly came to Zhao Xuanji without saying a word.

"send it to the palace quickly and give it to Zhao Rui." Zhao Xuanji took out a bottle of medicine from the drawer and handed it to the guard with the policeman.

the guard took two things, stuffed them directly into his arms without looking at them, and then quietly left after a salute.

when he came to the courtyard, Zhao Xuanji looked up at the night and murmured, "Prince, I hope you don't force the old man to go to this last step."

.

as soon as Li Chen returned to the East Palace, he received the latest news from Sanbao.

"more than half of the members of the imperial court gathered in Zhao Xuanji's mansion and talked for two hours before they left"

Li Chen had a calm expression and asked, "can you find out what they are talking about"

Sanbao said, "Jin Yiwei's spies only know that they are going to meet the prince in the East Palace tomorrow. I don't know exactly why and what happened."

Li Chen walked to a candlelight and picked out the wick with scissors. The fire light jumped much brighter. Li Chen, who looked at the candlelight, asked carelessly.

Sanbao whispered, "the maidservant dare not speak rashly, but it is by no means a good thing."

"when he was the head of the court, his strength in the court could be said to cover the sky with one hand, and his father was seriously ill for several years. Over the past few years, he has been in charge of the imperial government, and many government decrees and strategies have been written by him. He is more like the man at the helm of this empire than our father and son."

"and at this time, there was only one reason why the Yipin staff around him talked to this Shoufu adult for two hours."

Li Chen put down the scissors and said coldly, "what I have done these days has made them anxious. They are no longer used to having imperial power over their heads. They want everything to get back on track, and the best way is to bring me to my knees, or... Make me disappear. "

when Sanbao's pupils contracted, he immediately said, "the maidservant and the east factory are willing to die for the prince."

"I know it must be true, because when I'm finished, you and your east factory are going to be finished."

Li Chen chuckled and said, "get up, Phoenix Jubilee Palace."

when Li Chen arrived in the Phoenix Jubilee Palace, Zhao Qinglan was ready to have a rest.

through the curtain, Li Chen said, "my minister wants to see the queen."

(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});

inside the curtain, Zhao Qinglan's cold voice said, "the night is already dark, and it is not suitable for the prince to see me. If you have anything to say, please leave."

"is the queen sure she wants her son and minister to speak here" Li Chen said with a smile. Inside the curtain of the

door, Zhao Qinglan was silent for a moment, but rather reluctantly ordered: "all of you stand down."

when everyone else in the palace left, Zhao Qinglan said coldly, "is there anything you can say now"

as soon as others left, Li Chen's eyes became sharp and his waist straightened, as if he had turned against the guest in an instant and strode over to open the curtain of the door.

Zhao Qinglan, who is sitting on the soft collapse, said angrily, "presumptuous!" If you barge in without my permission, even if you are the crown prince, I can still punish you for your sins! "

"all right."

Li Chen sat down on the soft collapse, picked up the teacup at hand of Zhao Qinglan and drank it, saying, "am I less presumptuous" The queen will stop talking about such completely self-comforting words. "

Zhao Qinglan was immediately greatly ashamed to see Li Chen use his own cup to drink water.

she got up and looked at Li Chen coldly and said, "Don't think I'm that easy to bully."

Zhao Qinglan's noble identity, that mother's demeanor of the world is by no means unusual, at the moment in a rage, there is really a bit of a chilling majesty.

but this is obviously not very useful in front of Li Chen.

he has plenty of ways to get Zhao Qinglan to get rid of his thorns.

"A quarter of an hour ago, I just got the news that more than half of the powerful officials of the court, including Sun Boli, minister of the Dali Temple, and Teng Huaiyi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, talked in secret for two hours in the Shoufu residence. No one knows what they talked about, but I knew they would come to the East Palace tomorrow to find trouble with me."

Li Chen looked at Zhao Qinglan, whose eyes were wide and shocked because he heard his words. With a chuckle, he pressed one hand on the soft handrail and the other on the backrest, leaned close to Zhao Qinglan, gazed at the eyes as clear as crystal, and said, "I wonder if I should take advantage of this great opportunity for them to gather together and hide a hundred axe hands in the East Palace tomorrow, waiting for your father to come." Just cut to death with a random knife "

when Li Chen said these words, there was a smile on his face.

but the ice-cold eyes, which are as bottomless as a deep pool, contain a surging killing machine in the flow, which seems to have accumulated to the limit, and may erupt in the next moment.

if anyone else said such rebellious words, Zhao Qinglan would think the other person was crazy.

that is the first assistant of the central government who has controlled the government for more than a decade, and there are more than half of the real power officials. It can be said that these people represent the top of the power pyramid of the Qin Empire today. If something happens to them, the whole Qin Empire will be out of order.

but combined with what Li Chen has done during this period of time, Zhao Qinglan feels that Li Chen really dares to do so.

you know, Li Chen made a terrifying achievement. The number of important courtiers he killed was equal to the number of days he gained the right to supervise the country.

such a bloodthirsty madman, anything is possible.

"No!"

Zhao Qinglan exclaimed: "once you do this, the capital will instantly fall into riots, and frightened courtiers will be in danger. At that time, when the capital is in chaos, it will mobilize the whole body because of the tense situation of the empire, which will only make the empire more in danger, while thieves and foreign enemies who are looking covetously at the empire will take advantage of the opportunity to enter."

"Prince, you must not be impulsive!"

Li Chen stared at Zhao Qinglan, her eyes flickering.

he raised his hand and slowly rubbed Zhao Qinglan's face as smooth as an egg with the back of his hand. "I know, but they didn't want me to live, so I fought them," he said.

"otherwise, I can't let them kill me. Do you think that's right"

Zhao Qinglan bit her lip, and every inch of skin that Li Chen's palm swam made her feel electrocuted and numb. She forced herself not to care about that feeling, but the gradual shortness of breath was an indisputable fact.

enduring the strange and strange restlessness in her heart, Zhao Qinglan's brain tried to calm down. in order not to let Li Chen's hand continue to stimulate herself, she raised her hand and grabbed Li Chen's hand and looked up at Li Chen. "Prince, this may not be impossible," she said.pital, there would be such a big change at this time."Zhao Tailai, have met your Highness."Zhao Tailai saluted Li Chen and said, "Su Pingbei has set out, and with the secret help of our Guza tribe, th...
