"Father, if you don't trust me, why do you give me troops?"
After being escorted back to the palace, the prince was filled with deep unwillingness and resentment.
"You said you would hand over the palace to me, but you secretly controlled everything in the palace. You even acted out a play for me with Li Qian. If you don't trust me, why don't you just destroy me or kill me? Why are you teasing me like this?"
"Don't you understand now?" Li Yuanxian shook his head, "You are the prince, the prince I personally appointed. I am giving you a chance. Ever since you colluded with Dou Huaishan and even sent people to assassinate me, I have been I’m giving you a chance.”
"Dou Huaishan came to me. It's good for me to cooperate with him, but when did I send someone to assassinate my father?" the prince said.
Li Yuanxian frowned slightly, "Weren't you the one who assassinated me at the Royal Hunting Ground that day?"
"We are all in this situation. It was me who did it. Why don't we dare to admit it? Dou Huaishan has indeed asked me to assassinate my father a long time ago, but I have never been sure." The prince said.
Li Yuanxian sighed, "It doesn't matter whether you did it or not. It is true that you have evil intentions. I have given you so many opportunities, especially this time. As long as you focus on getting rid of Dou Huaishan, I can still let you be you." My prince, it’s a pity that you have disappointed me so much.”
"What about Prince Jing?" The prince gritted his teeth and said, "This time it was obviously him who plotted against me. The assassination of my father in the hunting ground might have been his plot!"
"This is where you are not as good as Prince Jing. Even if he did it, he can do it without leakage, and he also manages his reputation very well. If you want to sit in my position, how can you do it without some means!" Li Yuanxian He shook his head and said, "I thought you had made some progress, but you are still not as good as Prince Jing."
"So, my father is planning to pass on the throne to Prince Jing?" the prince asked.
"It's too early to say who can take my position. You two are not the only princes I have, but you are already out!" Li Yuanxian said.
The prince was stunned for a while, and then kept kowtowing. He was really scared, "Father, give me another chance. I promise that I will not let you down again!"
Li Yuanxian waved his hand and stroked his forehead, "I'm tired, take him down."
"Father, please, give me another chance!" As he was being taken down, the prince's crying voice echoed in the hall.
Li Yuanxian didn't raise his head until the sound completely disappeared.
To Wang Chun beside him, he said expressionlessly, "Everyone in the East Palace will be buried with the prince!"
"No!" Wang Chun responded tremblingly.
"Call Li Qian, I want to see him!" Li Yuanxian continued.
"Eunuch Wang, you are in such a hurry, why does the emperor want to see you?"
When Wang Chun came out of the palace and found Li Qian, he grabbed Li Qian and pulled him into the palace without letting go.
"Master Li, please don't ask. His Majesty is in a very bad mood today, and our family is also very upset."
"The Emperor is in a bad mood, why?" Li Qian said with a smile.
"Isn't Mr. Li asking questions knowingly? I don't believe Mr. Li has not received any news about the prince's matter. Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. We'll talk about it before entering the palace." Wang Chun hurriedly pulled Li Qian into the carriage.
after a while.
Li Qian came to the main hall.
"Li Qian, in order to cooperate with you, I even paid the prince's compensation. What is your explanation to me?" Li Yuanxian said expressionlessly. ..
"Your Majesty, you can't say that." Li Qian bowed and said, "The prince has evil intentions, and your majesty also gave the prince opportunities again and again. It was the prince who didn't know how to cherish the opportunities. It was he who paid for it. This one If you can explain it, Your Majesty is wise!"
"I don't want to hear these words anymore." Li Yuanxian waved his hands with a stern face, "I asked you where is your explanation? Do you know that no one has ever dared to make fun of my head, and you are the first one, and you will not There’ll be another time!”
"Of course there will be no next time for this matter. As for Li Qi'an's explanation, your Majesty will see it soon." Li Qi'an said.
"Li Qian, I know that you are capable, but at the same time, you must also understand one thing, that is, no matter how you plot, never blame me. Although the prince brings it upon himself, without you, he would not be the same. When we end up like this, it will not be you who has the final say as to who my throne will be passed on to!" Li Yuanxian said.
