Chapter 84 Qin II? Tang III!(1/2)
East Palace!
The East Palace and the Tai Chi Palace are only separated by a wall, but they are as isolated as a natural chasm. At this moment, the Tai Chi Palace seems to be always brightly lit, but the East Palace is silent, cold, and lifeless!
Li Chengqian sat blankly in the East Palace.
He saw with his own eyes that his favorite musician, Yong Xin, was given poisoned wine and died in front of him.
"The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has issued an edict that Prince Li Chengqian has ignored Gu Lunchang and made arrogant remarks that have brought shame to the Tang Dynasty. From now on, he will depose the crown prince, demote him to the prince of Zhongshan County, and ban him from Beiyuan!"
"Taichang pleased the prince to seduce him and gave him poisonous wine to kill himself."
Li Junxian and his bodyguards, after the eunuch who delivered the edict read out the imperial edict, walked up to Li Chengqian, raised his hands in salute, and said: "Your Highness, please come with us!"
"His Royal Highness!"
Li Chengqian slowly raised his head and smiled crazily: "Hahaha, I haven't heard this title for a long time!"
"Li Junxian, Mr. Li, do you know that he gave me the position of crown prince! Now he wants to kick me out of this position! If that's the case, why did he want me to sit in this position in the first place?
!”
Li Junxian: "Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense. I just pretended that I didn't hear what you just said."
"Hahaha, the world only knows that being a prince means that you are below one person and above ten thousand people, and that you are the crown prince of a country. However, the prince seems to be only one step away from the emperor, but in fact it is a world of difference! Anyone who has ever sat in the position of prince
Only then will you realize that, of course, the prince is just the beginning!"
Li Junxian frowned and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness!!"
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of him? I'm not afraid! I'm gone, I'm useless, I have nothing, so I'm not afraid of him! In the past, I did whatever he asked me to do, and he asked me to be a qualified person.
Crown Prince, I try my best to be a qualified Crown Prince, but I still can’t satisfy him! Can’t I just do what I want to do!!”
Li Chengqian ignored Li Junxian at all, but roared crazily, and his already red eyes became even scarier!
Li Junxian naturally knew that the "him" Li Junxian was talking about was referring to the current Holy Emperor!
He waved his hand and arranged for all the eunuchs and guards in the hall to leave, leaving him alone. "Your Highness, you really did something wrong this time and broke His Majesty's heart. Please don't worry Your Majesty anymore!"
Li Chengqian laughed wildly again, "Haha, look, this is the difference between the emperor and the prince. He threw me into the abyss and still wants me to be grateful!? I have reached this point, doesn't he have any responsibility as a father!!!
"
Li Junxian shook his head and said nothing more. His palm was as fast as lightning and landed on Li Chengqian's neck, knocking him out instantly.
"Come here! Escort the Prince of Zhongshan and his family to move to Beiyuan!"
Following Li Junxian's order.
The eunuchs and guards who had already withdrawn rushed in one after another and began to move the deposed prince's family!
Li Junxian personally carried Li Chengqian into the carriage. As the deputy director of the Baiqi Division, he had seen too much about the royal family and was even a little numb. However, he knew his position very well, which was in the hands of Li Shimin.
A short knife, concealed and sharp, resolutely ignore what should not be done, resolutely not ask about what should not be asked, just carry out the orders issued by Li Shimin like a machine!
…
For Li Chengqian, who is already the deposed prince, Li Junxian will not add insult to injury or make sarcastic remarks. He knows very well that although it seems that Li Chengqian has lost the position of prince, he is still his majesty's eldest son, and he has only been reduced to the county king.
, and did not drive out of the palace. There were actually too many things worth savoring here. He even had no doubt that it might not be long before the deposed prince would sit on the throne of the prince again!
These are beyond the control of a small deputy director of the Baiqi Division.
.....
Royal news always spreads the fastest.
At dawn.
Almost everyone in Chang'an City knows that the sky has changed, but it is not the big sky that has changed, but the small sky in the East Palace!
The prince was deposed!
This news covered the entire Chang'an City at an alarming speed and radiated towards the entire Tang Dynasty!
Even the original text of the imperial edict deposing the prince was spread by word of mouth.
Although the decree did not state that Li Chengqian was killed for playing with his sleeves, it could not stop the curiosity of the melon-eaters. They were shocked and started discussing quietly in the streets and alleys, in restaurants and wine shops.
"I remember that Prince Li Chengqian was established not long ago, right? How come he was deposed so quickly?"
"Now is the first year of Zhenguan. Your Majesty has only ascended the throne not long ago. It stands to reason that the prince will not be deposed so soon. The prince must have made some serious mistake!"
"In the abolition edict, it only said that the prince continued to act and uttered arrogant words. It did not mention the specific reasons. It really makes people curious about what the prince did and what he said to make Your Majesty want to depose the prince!"
"Who knows? But I heard from some people that the prince was hanging out with a musician, and his majesty caught him..."
"Le Ren!! Usually they are...men!"
"Does that mean the prince has a habit of cutting off his sleeves?"
"Not only that, it is said that the prince also publicly cursed many of the founding ministers, saying that after he became the emperor, he would kill them all. Maybe this is the reason!"
"Tsk tsk, the prince is worthy of being a prince. There are so many beauties that he doesn't want, but he has to entertain people. Now he's done with it."
"Now that the crown prince has been deposed, but who the new crown prince is has not been announced, please tell us who will be next."
^0^Who will become the prince?"
"Then there's no need to guess? Of course it's King Wei! This King Wei is also his legitimate son, and he is the most beloved by His Majesty. Apart from him, I really can't think of anyone else!"
"You are being arbitrary when you say this. Although King Wei is the legitimate son and is loved by His Majesty, he can only read and paint. How can such a person become a prince? In my opinion, it is possible for a talented person to become a prince because of the King of Han's civility and martial arts.
Bigger!”
"You are totally farting. The King of Han is good in all aspects, but he still has the blood of the previous dynasty in his body. Just because of this alone, he cannot become the prince!"
"You're the one farting!"
"You all should stop arguing. Except for King Wei and King Han, I think King Yan also has a chance. Look, King Yan..."
"You are really talking nonsense."
"That's right!"
"The whole of Chang'an knows that King Yan is a playboy and incompetent. He visits the music studio every day. If such a waste becomes the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't he be the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty just like Qin II!"
…
"Tang Sanshi? This is such a good name!"
"I heard that the Third Emperor of the Tang Dynasty hid in Prince Yan's Mansion every day. Apart from going to the music studio to listen to music, he did not go anywhere else. I even suspected that the Third Emperor of the Tang Dynasty also had..."
"You mean the habit of cutting sleeves!"
"That's right!"
.....
Prince Yan's Mansion, back garden!
"Ayawn!!"
Li You was currently fishing leisurely on the wooden bridge of the lakeside cabin, when he suddenly sneezed!
"Huh???" Li You rubbed his nose and watched the fish that was about to be hooked run away. He couldn't help but cursed: "That bastard is scolding us!"
"We fight for power first, but not power. We just want to live our own small lives. Why don't you let us go? Please have some moral integrity!"
At this moment, Hanxiang walked over with a light demeanor.
"Your Highness, someone just came from Ganlu Palace to convey a message. Your Majesty has spoken, saying that Your Highness must attend the morning meeting tomorrow! You cannot be absent!"
Li You was stunned for a moment, and his mood suddenly became bad.
"After a hard day's relaxation, I have to go to the morning again. I get up at five or six o'clock every day. None of the cattle in the production team are used like this!"
Hanxiang's eyes were full of questions, "Your Highness, where is the production team?"
Li You smiled awkwardly, "That's the place I dreamed about in my dream. The people and livestock there work only at midnight every day, and get off work as soon as midnight passes. They have to rest for an hour at noon, and have two days off every seven days. , it’s like here, it’s so inhumane to get up before dawn.”
Hearing this, Hanxiang nodded, "The production team in Your Highness's Dream is really a good place."
Li You changed the subject and turned his attention to Hanxiang, "Tsk, tsk, Hanxiang, I noticed that you have become more beautiful recently."
Hanxiang's cheeks flushed, and she said shyly: "I have to thank Your Highness for teaching me that...yoga. After I practiced it, my figure has really improved a lot."
Li You nodded, "Not bad, keep at it, I'm very optimistic about you!"
"By the way, Hanxiang, go and tell the people at Ganlu Palace that I occasionally caught wind and cold and couldn't afford to fall ill. I'm worried about infecting His Majesty and the ministers at the court tomorrow morning, so I won't go to the court tomorrow morning." After that, Li Yu then turned around and continued fishing.
Every time I go to court, I just listen to the quarrels of the ministers, which is not interesting at all. There is no need to go.
Hanxiang knelt down with a thud.
Li You was so frightened that he almost dropped the fishing rod in his hand, "Hanxiang, what are you doing? Is someone bullying you? Tell me, and I will deal with them. People who dare to bully me are impatient." "
With tears in the corners of her eyes, Hanxiang said: "Your Highness, the people from Ganlu Palace have said that if Your Highness does not go to court tomorrow morning, Your Majesty will confuse the King of Yan and not think about progress, and all the people in the Yan Palace will be sent to Ye Ting. Become the lowest slave and do the dirtiest work!"
"What!"
Li You frowned, his eyes slightly angry.
This Li Er is getting more and more excessive!
