"What do you want?"

After a long while, Queen Ma looked at Zhao Chongyuan without wanting to speak.

Once the emperor made up his mind,

Then the crown prince is not far away from being deposed.

And throughout all dynasties, none of the deposed crown princes had a good ending.

Zhao Chongyuan also understands this in his heart.

But first he was the emperor of Daqian and the father of tens of millions of people in Daqian, and then he was the grandfather of Zhao Qingzhan.

In front of the country and family.

He can only choose the country.

The only one to blame is Zhao Chongyuan who harmed Zhao Qingzhan in order to seek stability and stabilize the political situation.

"Not urgent."

Zhao Chongyuan shook his head: "Yi Chu's matter cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Even if I have the intention to let Lao Jiu succeed me, it will be difficult for the courtiers to convince me, and it will be difficult for my sons to convince me. , this matter should be taken slowly."

After thinking about it for a long time.

Zhao Chongyuan then said: "In the final analysis, Lao Jiu is not the legitimate son after all. His mother also died too early, and the family behind him does not have much power. It is not that simple to make him the crown prince."

But here it comes.

Zhao Chongyuan suddenly smiled again, and then said fiercely: "And this kid also needs to be beaten hard!"

When I think about it, when Zhao Ding knew he was going to Youzhou.

In front of him, he actually asked the people of Youzhou to put mud on the wall.

Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that his teeth itched again.

Since ancient times, which prince has not wanted to be the emperor?

But Zhao Ding is better!

He actually started fooling him in front of them.

Is he, Zhao Chongyuan, so easy to fool?

"Okay, you are the emperor, you make your own decisions, whatever you say will be what you say."

Queen Ma took a deep breath, looked at Zhao Chongyuan and said.

At this moment, she could also see it.

Zhao Chongyuan came this time not only to tell her about the house confiscation, but also about more important things. He probably also wanted to test her mind.

After all, she is Zhao Qingzhan's royal grandmother.

And Zhao Qingzhan is also her only grandson.

But from the perspective of the mother of a country.

She also really felt that Zhao Qingzhan was not qualified to be the emperor.

Too naughty.

I don’t know the sufferings of the people.

Forcibly helping him up would only harm Zhao Qingzhan.

In this way, we can only hope that if Zhao Ding really ascends the throne in the future, he can treat Zhao Qingzhan kindly for the sake of her adoptive mother, Ma Ruyin.

"Hey, okay, okay, I just have an idea. Seeing the way you sigh, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Even if we want to, your ninth brother may not be willing."

Seeing Empress Ma's worried look, Zhao Chongyuan rolled his eyes.

"Um?"

Listening to Zhao Chongyuan's words, Queen Ma was stunned again, "What do you mean?"

At that moment, Zhao Chongyuan briefly told Queen Ma how Zhao Ding had fooled him.

"Huh? Did Lao Jiu really do this?"

Queen Ma looked confused.

Zhao Chongyuan snorted: "Not only did he do it, but he did it in front of me. Do you know how harshly the yamen servant scolded me? He directly called me a dog emperor!"

Having said this, Zhao Chongyuan took another sip of tea angrily: "If I hadn't had a good temper and didn't want to be on the same level as him, I could have destroyed all nine of his clans just because of these words."

Zhao Chongyuan said with a groan.

Empress Ma also smiled bitterly when she heard this, and said with a smile: "The same goes for Lao Jiu. When I wrote to him, my original intention was to ask him to coax you and ask you to change his fiefdom to a better one. I didn't expect that he actually did. ....."

Having said this, Queen Ma smiled helplessly.

"Humph, he coaxed me?"

Zhao Chongyuan blew his beard angrily and glared, "The buildings in his fief are much better than mine in the capital!"

…

at the same time.

Yingtian, in the palace of Prince Qin.

Brothers Zhao Gang and Zhao Heng sat opposite each other.

"Lao Wu, you said that the old man confiscated the Zhou family, Li family, Sun family, and Chen family again this time, and transferred our brothers from the fiefdom back to the capital. What do you think the old man is thinking in his heart?

I really feel that our stay in Qingzhou and Yizhou will be a hindrance.

Or are you planning to completely destroy the power we have accumulated over the years?"

Zhao Gang touched his chin and looked at Zhao Heng with a puzzled look.

Zhao Heng rolled his eyes: "You ask me?"

Then he shouted again, "You ask me, how do I know? If I knew, would I still be sitting here like you?"

As he spoke, Zhao Heng took another sip of the wine on the table.

He opened his mouth and spat it out again, saying with a look of disgust: "What the hell, it tastes terrible, not half as good as the fine wine and jade dew."

However, Zhao Gang was too lazy to pay attention to him.

He continued to rub his chin and said: "You said that this time the old man stole the names of the four major families, the Sun family, the Li family, the Zhou family, and the Chen family, because Lao Jiu killed Wen Ziheng, Duke of Nanchen Qi, in Youzhou.

My son is gentle,

Lao Jiu has made such a great contribution.

Do you think the old man would like to recall Lao Jiu and make him the crown prince?

After all, that kid Qing Zhan is not meant to be an emperor.

You understand this, I understand it, and everyone in the civil and military dynasties knows this from the bottom of their hearts.

The old man knows it even more deeply."

Zhao Gang said word for word.

When Zhao Heng heard this, he immediately laughed: "Make Lao Jiu the crown prince? Second brother, how much wine have you drunk? If you only eat a peanut, you will not be so drunk.

Don’t you think about who the hell Lao Jiu is?

She was the palace maid whom our old man came to when he was drunk. She died in childbirth when she was still giving birth to Lao Jiu. Now there is an uncle who is a school captain behind Lao Jiu.

Is he a big-ass official?

As long as the old man is not stupid, it is impossible to make Lao Jiu the crown prince.

After all, who would be convinced by him?

Are you convinced?

Or am I convinced?

Or is it that the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty dare to take refuge in a prince who has no background, no power, and is so stupid that he can't beat a single thing with eight sticks?"

Zhao Heng said with disdain.

"But I heard that the old man came back from Youzhou this time and invited Duke Wei to the palace for a banquet. Moreover, the queen also had the idea of ​​marrying Duke Wei's daughter Xu Ruoyun to Lao Jiu as his princess. Why didn't you tell me about this?

?”

Zhao Gang also rolled his eyes and looked at Zhao Heng with an unconvinced expression.

Zhao Heng laughed and said: "The result? Did you see the old man's decree? General Xu really married his daughter to Lao Jiu? General Xu didn't even marry a daughter, what are you thinking?"

Having said this, Zhao Heng picked up the peanuts on the table and took a bite.

Zhao Gang touched his chin and said in deep thought: "Well, that's what you said."

Zhao Heng stood up, patted Zhao Gang on the shoulder, and said with a meaningful smile: "So, you can rest assured. In the end, this throne will only be decided between you and me. As for others, don't even think about it.

So the person you should beg for most now is me, beg me to let you go in the future."

Having said this, Zhao Heng grinned again.

But soon, Zhao Heng was stunned, looking at Zhao Gang who had not touched a sip of food or a sip of wine, "Why don't you eat?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gang also raised his head and looked at Zhao Heng with a smile, and then said with a proud look on his face: "Because I put laxatives in this wine and vegetables."

"I am your ancestor!"

Zhao Heng's expression changed instantly when he heard this.

At this moment, my stomach suddenly turned upside down.

Holding her stomach and crying, she rushed outside and shouted sternly: "Gong Tong, Gong Tong, hurry up and bring the prince, I will bring the Gong Tong!"
