Unparalleled Concubine

What His Royal Highness King Wei said was sincere.

Although he wants to seize the heir, he is also really filial, which is not contradictory.

Emperor Chengde narrowed his eyes: "There are no outsiders here, so it's meaningless to say such nonsense, how about you and my father and son telling the truth?"

The Seventh Prince kowtowed and said: "My son always knows everything and says everything in front of his father!"

"Well."

His Majesty the Emperor looked straight at his son, and said in a deep voice, "Do you want to be the Emperor?"

The Seventh Prince bowed his head without any hesitation and said, "I think so."

There is nothing to hide. Speaking of this, if you hide your self-motivation, you will be clearly deceiving the emperor.

The Emperor Chengde chuckled: "Then you just said that you hope I will live forever? Since you are going to be emperor, you should hope that I will die soon."

His Royal Highness King Wei touched the ground with his head, and said in a respectful voice: "My son only hopes that one day in the future, I can inherit the will of my father, so that my country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. When my father is here, my son will be my prince for a day. I dare not have any delusions. "

Emperor Chengde squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then waved his hand: "Okay, you get up and talk, you don't need to kneel."

The Seventh Prince stood up and stood with his hands down.

"Kneeling the king and kneeling the father is justified."

The emperor of Chengde coughed a few more times, and it became more and more serious. Chen Ju quickly handed over a brocade handkerchief. After the emperor of Chengde wiped his mouth, his face turned pale.

The Seventh Prince hurried forward two steps, but he didn't dare to get close to his father, so he could only anxiously say: "Father, are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

Emperor Chengde waved his hand.

"You sit back on the stool."

The Seventh Prince obediently sat back.

After resting for a while, the emperor finally recovered a little bit, and he said slowly: "Just now I asked you a few brothers the same question, and their answers are similar to yours, but in comparison, your answer is more comfortable than theirs. Some."

"My son is terrified."

Emperor Chengde managed to pull himself together and looked at the Seventh Prince.

"I'm going to ask you a few questions now, and you answer them truthfully."

"Father, please ask."

Emperor Chengde closed his eyes, and said slowly: "If you were Zhen now, how would you handle this court situation?"

Now comes the real big score question.

The Seventh Prince was sweating on his forehead.

Before that, Li Xin had told him that such a countermeasure was likely to happen, but at that time Li Xin only told him what he should do when he became an emperor in the future, but he didn't tell him what he should do when he was an emperor now.

The question of the Chengde emperor... is beyond the outline!

Only on your own.

The seventh prince also closed his eyes, and said slowly: "My minister dares to overstep. If my minister is the father, the assassination case has come to an end at this time. You should meet with the minister as soon as possible to stabilize the court. As for the murderer behind the scenes, you should Wait until the court situation is stable and the hearts of the people are stabilized before we start."

Emperor Chengde glanced at the Seventh Prince with a half-smile.

"Who is the murderer behind the scenes you mentioned?"

His Royal Highness King Wei opened his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Although I did not participate in the investigation like the third brother, I have guessed something. This assassination was probably done by Pingnan Hou Li's family!"

"Why did they want to stab me?"

"because……"

The seventh prince looked up at his father, and finally lowered his head and said: "Because the father is going to attack Nanjiang, Li Ji's imprisonment is a sign, they can't hold back at all, so they went crazy and sent someone to assassinate the father !"

The emperor's face turned cold.

"Now that you know who stabbed me, why don't you go and avenge your father?"

The Seventh Prince lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Royal Father, father's hatred is naturally to be avenged, but personal hatred cannot be worth the state affairs after all, for the sake of Dajin, this personal hatred can only be let go for the time being!"

Emperor Chengde looked the seventh prince up and down, and clapped his hands in admiration.

"You are very good. Among the four princes, you are the only one who sees the court situation so clearly."

Having said that, Emperor Chengde shook his head slightly: "If your eldest brother also has this insight, I don't have to worry about who to choose."

Originally, it has been the custom from ancient times to establish a descendant and establish an elder. The Great Jin Dynasty should also establish an empress and establish an elder. The eldest prince Ji Ku has an innate advantage in this regard.

This can be seen from his name.

Di Ku is an ancient sage.

But this eldest prince is really incompetent, so the emperor of Chengde has been unable to make up his mind to make him the prince.

The seventh prince bowed his head and said, "Father is too famous."

The emperor silently glanced at the seventh prince, and finally lowered his eyebrows and said: "I heard that you have also gathered a group of people under your command to inquire about the news."

The Seventh Prince's forehead was suddenly covered with cold sweat.

The intelligence organization under his command has only been set up for less than a month, and it is not yet on a large scale. Even so, the Emperor Chengde knew about it.

Seeing his son's frightened look, the emperor chuckled.

"You don't need to be so nervous. You are the prince of Dajin no matter what. It's normal for some people under your command to do things."

"When I was hiding in the mansion, there were many people who listened to me."

The Holy Son of Heaven glanced at the Seventh Prince indifferently, and continued.

"What I mean is, since someone is listening to the news for you, you should already know about Li Shen's return to Beijing."

The emperor's voice was calm.

"If you were me, how would you treat Li Shen?"

Li Shen shouldn't have returned to Beijing at this time.
