Unparalleled Concubine

Besides, around the New Year's Eve, there are palace lanterns everywhere in the palace, and it is very normal for them to leak water.

Li Xin sighed: "If your Highness fails, it will also implicate Concubine Shu."

His Royal Highness King Wei gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Okay, I will find a way to inform Mother and Concubine these few days."

"The rest is the time for specific hands-on."

Li Xin lowered his head and said, "The Habayashi guards will take turns at Yong'an Gate on a regular basis. After entering Yong'an Gate, we will be in the Imperial City. Although we haven't been to the inner city of the Imperial City, it has already saved us a lot of effort."

"I'll check later on when Habayashi will be on duty at Yong'an Gate around the New Year's Eve, and we'll start on that day."

His Royal Highness King Wei nodded first, and then said, "Do you want to discuss it with the Ye family in advance?"

"Your Highness."

Li Xin glanced at His Royal Highness King Wei indifferently, and said silently: "The matter of mutiny should be in His Highness's own hands. To put it a bit harshly, Your Highness should consider after the mutiny. The Ye family is already a giant. Let the Ye family lead the mutiny, how will His Highness treat the Ye family after Yuji?"

"So for this mutiny, His Highness can only be the main one, and the Ye family should be the assistant. We must not put the cart before the horse. After we have discussed it, we will inform the Ye family when to do it."

The Seventh Prince took a deep breath, nodded and said, "That's the truth."

After the two discussed some details, Li Xin lowered his head and thought for a while, and asked, "Before Your Highness...can you get to the Tianmu prison?"

Wei Wang simply nodded: "Dong Cheng, the eunuch of the Tianmu Supervisor, had the handle to kill him, so I was able to remotely control the Tianmu Supervisor before, but Dong Cheng probably won't join us in this kind of thing. Dry."

The Seventh Prince sighed: "Dong Cheng can still understand the difference between dying one and punishing the nine clans."

Li Xin sneered and said: "A eunuch, how can there be any clan to speak of, His Highness finds an opportunity to call him out of the palace, I will persuade him, mastering one of the eight eunuchs in the inner palace will be of great benefit to us .”

His Royal Highness King Wei frowned slightly.

"Most likely he will not agree, and he is likely to make false claims with us and betray us behind our backs."

Eunuchs will add icing on the cake, but they will not send charcoal in a timely manner.

Li Xin squinted his eyes and said: "It was already the fault of the Yi tribe that he had cheated on His Highness before. As long as you tell him about this joint, he won't be so stupid as to surrender himself to His Majesty."

King Wei nodded, and said slowly, "Okay, I'll call him to Deyilou in the next few days, and I'll ask Jiuniang to inform Brother Xin."

After this matter came to an end, Li Xin lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness, let's do it on the New Year's Day. At that time, His Highness can send some Zhu Rongjiu to the inner guards, and use the strongest Jinling Spring, Tell them this is a gift from His Majesty's New Year's Eve, and allow them to drink.

The strongest Zhurong wine has more than 60 degrees, and ordinary people get drunk after a bowl. On weekdays, only half of the inner guards are on duty, and the other half is on standby. weaken.

King Wei frowned: "I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the palace city."

The prince is not allowed to enter the palace without an edict, and the inner guard's camp is inside the palace city.

Li Xin chuckled: "When the time comes, our Habayashi Guard will be in charge of Yong'an Gate. It is definitely not possible to enter the inner city, but it cannot be easier to enter the outer city of the imperial city."

"it is good."

Wei Wang clapped his palms and said with a smile: "Brother Xin is thoughtful and thoughtful, and everything is linked together. Now I am more sure of success."

Li Xin took another sip of tea, and took a last look at King Wei.

"Your Highness, there is something you need to be mentally prepared for."

"Brother Xin, tell me."

Li Xin said indifferently: "After entering the palace, no matter whether it is the third prince or the fourth prince, you don't have to kill him, but His Royal Highness must die, and he cannot be allowed to live no matter what!"

The eldest prince is the crown prince officially enshrined by the court. As long as he lives for a day, even if King Wei succeeds in ascending the throne, it will not be orthodox.

Moreover, as long as he is alive, there will be countless people who want to use his identity to do things.

So no matter what, the prince will die.

His Royal Highness Wei Wang was silent for a while, and finally nodded slowly: "I see."

Li Xin squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "From tomorrow onwards, His Highness can start preparing to move, just to make a show and tell everyone in the capital that Wei Wang's residence has withdrawn from seizing the throne."

In this era, moving is extremely troublesome. It is normal for a large mansion like Wei Wangfu to prepare for the move for a month.

His Royal Highness King Wei also showed a smile on his face.

"It's to pretend to be moving, to deceive people."

"Not pretending."

Li Xin shook his head and said, "Your Highness is indeed planning to move."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and both looked in the direction of the imperial city.

Chapter 308 Black Face Eunuch

The wind direction in the capital slowly began to change.

At the very beginning, no one thought that the eldest prince Ji Ku would be able to secure the position of the prince, that's why the fourth prince was so keen to fight with the prince. Now that the two rounds of sewage have been poured down, the prince's reputation is already rotten, but he is safe and sound. , the position of the crown prince has not been shaken in the slightest!

Some people even started rumors in private that the current emperor was controlled by the prince.

With the crown prince so strong, he naturally had a large number of followers around him. After all, no one would take his own life as a joke. Up to now, under His Royal Highness, there are already a large number of officials of the third and fourth ranks available.

The trend is set.

Even the few prime ministers felt that the crown prince was ready to succeed, so when the crown prince issued the imperial edict, after some hesitation, several prime ministers added their seals on it.

The ministers under the fourth prince's family were anxious every day, and even a few timid officials hanged themselves at home.

No matter how bad the prince's reputation is, as long as His Majesty does not act, he will still be the prince, and the situation will be unstoppable.

Even the fourth prince himself was depressed a lot, and he didn't leave the palace for several days.

The third prince has not been confined for half a year, and he has no way to go out.

As for the seventh son of the emperor, His Royal Highness King Wei, he is even more straightforward. He is already preparing to move. Everyone in Yongle Square can see that there are many carriages gathered at the gate of Prince Wei's mansion, and they are packing their things. It seems that they are only waiting for the official documents from the imperial court. , ready to leave Beijing.

The document for the vassal is not the edict of the vassal. The document for the vassal is to stipulate where the vassal is, how big the land is, and so on. It is usually handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry in cooperation. The Ministry of Industry is responsible for building the mansion of the vassal.

In fact, the fiefdoms of the three princes have been confirmed. His Royal Highness Zhao was sealed in the area of ​​Yancheng, His Royal Highness Qi was sealed in Jiaying Mansion in the south, and His Royal Highness Wei was the best, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was quite satisfied. The royal residence was sealed in the affluent city of Gusu, which was regarded as preferential treatment.

However, it usually takes at least half a year or even a year to complete the mansion of the vassal king, but His Royal Highness requires it to be completed within three months, which is considered a harsh order.

You must know that the mansions of feudal princes are regulated, at least they should not be too rudimentary. If the construction period is forcibly shortened, many people will die due to heavy corvee.

In ancient times, not only had to pay taxes, but also had to perform military service. Service was not only military service, but also corvee service. This kind of construction of the vassal king’s mansion required corvée service from the local government. , I don’t know how many people will die of exhaustion on this.

However, the general situation is like this, no one in the capital dares to resist the prince now.
