Cai Jin cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Minister, our people were purged by Lu Chong last night. We were unable to find out how His Highness the Prince obtained the account books made by Wang Hao himself."
Li Linfu's face darkened, a little unhappy.
His Highness the Crown Prince has been hiding his clumsiness all these years, so it’s just that they didn’t discover it in time.
Now that you don't even know the background of His Highness the Crown Prince, how can you fight with him?
"Mr. Prince, His Royal Highness has been hiding his clumsiness over the years and has deceived all of us. I'm afraid it's not that easy to know the details." Seeing Li Linfu's unhappy expression, Cai Jin quickly explained.
Li Linfu didn't say anything. Cai Jin's explanation seemed far-fetched, but it was not unreasonable.
Xiao Yi had even deceived him, and so had Li Qiuya. His daughter was Xiao Yi's pillow, right?
It's hard to imagine that Xiao Yi could plot secretly under Li Qiuya's nose.
Xiao Yi like this is very scary.
The six officials sitting here are all ministers of the court, and they are all ministers with real power. They can be said to be of high authority, and they have many people under their command, thus controlling the entire court, and even He also had contact with the feudal king and several prefects.
The current situation is also the reason why Xiao Di indulges Li Linfu.
Xiao Di later had some great achievements and extravagance, but Li Linfu was a master of flattery and making money. He won Xiao Di's favor and became the prime minister of Daqian. He led the disciples of Zhongshu and Shangshu Ling. , it can be said to be a high position of authority, below one person and above ten thousand people.
He didn't speak, and the six people in the entire private room didn't dare to say anything.
after awhile.
Li Linfu said calmly: "Before you don't know that those people are the prince's people and the power that the prince has cultivated, there is no need to do anything. The more you do, the more mistakes you make. He is also a cruel person who will cut off people's heads if he disagrees with them. , you don’t have to provoke him first, so as not to end up like Wang Hao. Living is better than anything else, but we have to find a way to prevent the crown prince’s order from leaving the capital. If no one carries it out, it’s just a joke.”
"In order to seize power, he is killing people with fear. It seems that he is happy, but in fact he is digging his own grave and losing people's hearts. It is easy to depose him."
Cai Jin nodded in praise and said: "The Prime Minister's words are wise. Now, His Highness the Crown Prince is definitely looking for us to use us. We must also deal with it carefully, cut off when possible, and wait for the Crown Prince to lose power."
"If the knife cuts too much, the blade will curl up. By that time, all the civil and military officials will be dissatisfied with the bloodthirsty Crown Prince. That's when we beat up the drowned dog. At that time, we will be on the side of righteousness and also for the sake of justice. Tianxingdao can also gain the support of more people and win more people to our side."
Zhu Mian also answered: "We can borrow swords to kill people. His Royal Highness likes to kill so much. We can also send some people to his door for him to kill. It depends on how he will deal with them."
When Li Linfu heard this, he looked at Zhu Mian. This person was not without merit.
"Can."
Zhu Mian raised his head slightly. It was not easy to get the approval of Mr. Li.
Li Linfu took another sip of tea and said quietly: "You can decide on your own what to do."
"Go back, I'm tired."
Cai Jin, Zhu Mian, Wang Fu and others stood up and bowed and said: "Then I will resign, and I hope you can rest peacefully."
…
Xiao Yi could not see Concubine Li in the Manlu Palace, and Xiao Di did not wake up, so he only stayed for more than ten minutes, massaged Xiao Di, and asked the palace maid to massage Xiao Di more every day, and then returned to the East Palace. .
When he came to the front hall, he saw Li Qiuya sitting there, seeming to be waiting for him. He walked up and sat directly next to her and asked, "It's so late. Do I have to hold you alone to fall asleep?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to pull Li Qiuya into his arms, but she dodged him.
"Your Highness, what exactly do you want to do?" Li Qiuya moved away slightly, looked at Xiao Yi, and asked seriously.
Xiao Yi frowned slightly, paused for a moment, moved forward, forcibly took Li Qiuya's little hand and played with it, "Are you concerned about Gu?"
Li Qiuya wanted to withdraw her hand, but found that the prince was very strong, so she had to give up.
"Wang Hao is an official of the third rank of Daqianzheng, and he is also the Minister of Household Affairs. For such a minister to be chopped off by you, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the officials."
It wasn't that Li Qiuya had figured it out and started to support Xiao Yi.
She still hated him, hated him for taking her by force and taking away her first time.
Now, I am afraid that the second prince Xiao Ce already knows about this. If she really supports Xiao Ce as emperor in the future, she may not be able to become the queen.
This was the pain in her heart.
But I have to say that I directly support Xiao Yi. After all, she is the princess now. If Xiao Yi successfully ascends the throne, she can also become the queen.
However, she is the daughter of Li Gongxiang, and Li Linfu supports the second prince Xiao Ce. Now she and Xiao Yi are enemies. The two are incompatible. If Xiao Yi succeeds in defeating Li Linfu, she, Li Linfu's daughter, may also be convicted.
This is also the pain in her heart.
The reason why she pretended to care about Xiao Yi was actually for herself. On the one hand, she wanted to gain Xiao Yi's trust and find out Xiao Yi's secret methods and the power he had cultivated without telling her over the years. On the other hand, it was actually for her. With Xiao Yi's trust, if Xiao Yi can still love her as always, even if her father Li Linfu falls in the end, with Xiao Yi's love, she will still have a chance to be a mother to the world.
Xiao Yidao: "A minister of household affairs has thousands of acres of fertile land in his family. The courtyard built in his hometown covers an area of more than a thousand acres. The seven entrances and seven exits are like the gardens of Suzhou and Hangzhou. Not to mention, the family's wealth has been piled up like a mountain."
"You think such corrupt officials can't be killed alone?"
"Killing him can give an explanation to the people affected by the disaster on Shaanxi Road. Killing him can give an explanation to the border officers and soldiers."
"Only those corrupt officials who are also corrupt officials will be dissatisfied, while loyal ministers who are loyal to Daqian will only say, well done!"
Looking at the unparalleled and domineering Xiao Yi, a strange flush flashed across Li Qiuya's cheeks.
This is what a man should do!
Xiao Yi had no expression on his face and pulled Li Qiuya into his arms. He held the plump Li Qiuya in his arms. When she let out a surprised "yeah", he walked closer, pursed her pink lips, and captured the sweetness. After a while, he whispered: "You care so much about me, I plan to reward you."
When she noticed that the buttons on her clothes were unbuttoned, Li Qiuya's plump and white cheeks were covered with a layer of rouge, and her beautiful crystal eyes seemed to be filled with moisture, and she whispered in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't..." "
The first time they were born, the second time they were familiar, Xiao Yi no longer guided them, they all went their own way without contradicting each other.
After a while, Xiao Yi wiped his face, stood up and poured two cups of tea. He hugged Li Qiuya, who had her head hanging down and her eyebrows furrowed, and said warmly: "Have a sip of tea."
Then he asked, "Do you want to eat? I'm a little hungry."
He eats a lot now and his body is recovering quickly. He feels more and more energetic and lasts longer.
After each time, a trace of dense Qi flows into the Dantian, is absorbed by the golden elixir, and then merges into the body.
It feels like there is no need to deliberately exercise, the golden elixir in his body can give him a strong and powerful body.
Li Qiuya also noticed this. The prince in the past did not have such a large appetite as he does now.
Of course, it is also possible that the prince had pretended to be ill before, so he did not show it in front of her, but secretly ate more.
Just finished a meal.
Cai Jin, the political advisor, came to the East Palace to report.
"Your Majesty, sir. I would like to inform Your Majesty that due to the severe drought on Shaanxi Road, many people have become refugees and have been begging all the way to the capital."
"Now there are tens of thousands of refugees outside the capital, and there is no longer enough food in the city."
"Several major granaries have to transport grain to Shaanxi Road, and they also have to support the army guarding the border. There is no food left."
"The three major grain merchants in the city also took the opportunity to raise grain prices, and many people in the city were unable to buy grain."
"Nowadays, people are in panic, so I would like to ask Your Highness to make a decision."
