Exile the entire clan? I made a fortune from planting

Cui Taibao's heart sank: "Your Highness has the final say in everything!"

Cui Taibao felt heavy after leaving Prince Xuan's Mansion.

Seizing the throne is easy to say, but not so easy to do.

This emperor is not the mediocre emperor of the previous dynasty, with no one to support him and no loyal people available.

The power of their family was also reduced by half when the emperor came to power. They have been secretly suppressing it for so many years and supporting people from poor families to rise to power. Nowadays, there are not many people who can be used in the court.

Even among the people, Emperor Mingde's reputation has always been good.

Cui Taibao was thinking about the chances of success of this matter in his mind. When he returned to Cui Guogong's mansion, he immediately called his direct children and grandchildren to discuss the matter.

"His Royal Highness King Xuan, prepare to arrange Lingze to work by his side."

Prince Cui Guogong had just brought his son over. As soon as he entered the door, he heard his father's words and his face lit up with joy: "Really? That's great!"

Cui Lingze looked at the solemn look on his grandfather's face and knew that the matter was not that simple. He asked calmly: "What happened?"

Cui Taibao looked at his most outstanding grandson and felt a little relieved and sour in his heart: "King Xuan, prepare... to rebel."

The faces of the father and son turned pale, and only then did Cui Guogong's crown prince react: "Then arrange for Lingze to come over at this time, is that...?"

"Let us be honest and obedient."

Taibao Cui let out a long sigh, as if he had a mirror in his mind.

Before they even took the throne, King Xuan was already trying to manipulate them.

The Crown Prince Cui Guogong looked ugly, but Cui Lingze quickly returned to normal: "It's okay if you don't hinder him! Anyway, no matter whether our grandson goes or not, we are still with King Xuan."

Cui Taibao nodded: "This matter is inevitable, but I plan to let your brother go back to his hometown, and your sister will find a family before the end of the year. It's settled."

"Father, is this...is this too hasty?"

The prince of Cui Guogong obviously felt bad and looked at Cui Taibao anxiously.

"I've made up my mind!"

Cui Taibao made the final decision.

····

In Prince Yi's Mansion.

Duke Cheng Guo and his son Cheng Guo Gong also talked about what happened to Prince Zhuang today.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty doesn't care about the old feelings at all. Prince Zhuang will kill whenever he says. All the nine Yongle Bo clans will be beheaded in public. If we don't take action, I'm afraid..."

Duke Cheng Guo couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he thought of Yonglebo's tragic situation today.

He was worried that he would become the second one.

King Yi frowned and sat there silently.

Prince Chengguo said tentatively: "Even if we do nothing, when King Xuan comes to power one day, our end will not be much better. Why don't we just... strike first to gain the upper hand?"

King Yi raised his head and stared at Prince Cheng Guo: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

Duke Cheng Guo was a little anxious: "Your Majesty! Now is not the time to be merciful. If you don't fight, you will be giving up! Once you give up in the battle for the throne, you will be handing over your life. Those things we did secretly, the Emperor's heart You may not know that if the emperor suddenly attacks one day, Prince Zhuang today will be our fate tomorrow!"

Why doesn't King Yi know this? It's just that he's not ready yet. What's the chance of succeeding in this way?

"No need to say more, I have my own plan in mind. You can go back first and wait and see what happens during this period."

King Yi was sullen and unwilling to say any more.

He still knows the virtues of his grandfather and this cousin. People who are eager for quick success and instant gain are not people who can handle things.

Seeing the displeasure on his face, Cheng Guogong and his son had no choice but to sigh and leave.

They waited until they left the gate of Prince Yi's Mansion and got on the carriage home before they spoke.

"I see that Your Highness has lost his temper since the empress was demoted! If the bloodline could not be cut off, I really wish I could find someone else!"

Prince Chengguo said with some dissatisfaction.

"Shut up!" Cheng Guogong shouted coldly.

It's all in vain. His Royal Highness King Yi's mother-in-law came from Chengguo's palace, so they naturally stand together.

"Since His Highness can't make a decision, let's help him."

Cheng Guogong's body swayed with the carriage, and he looked a little unfathomable when he closed his eyes.

The prince's eyes lit up: "Son, listen to your father's arrangements!"

·····

In the palace.

After learning that Emperor Mingde had personally killed his own son and had the always honest concubine Lan Bi killed, everyone in the harem was in danger.

Emperor Mingde didn't see anyone. He stayed in Yangxin Hall all day long and focused on official duties.

Only in the evening did I step out of Yangxin Palace and go to Yanfu Palace.

Jiang Qianruo rarely gave him a look, but silently ordered the waiters to serve him while he ate.

The two of them finished their meal in silence. Jiang Qianruo glanced at him: "We just purged a batch of eunuchs and maids in the palace some time ago. Now is the time when people are panicked. You have killed another prince. I’m afraid that the former harem and the harem will be frightened.”

Emperor Mingde was silent for a moment: "Then you choose a day to hold a banquet, and let them bring their families to attend. As long as they are men and women of the right age, it is OK. The children are also older, Aying and Zhou'er are not young anymore. , it’s time to choose a partner for them.”

After speaking, he sighed: "Maybe you are right. I am indeed getting old. I am no longer as decisive and courageous as before. Instead, I am hesitant and indecisive."

"I'm a little tired."

"We are no longer young anymore. I think maybe I should give us some time to ourselves, whether it is to take care of ourselves or to spend some time with the children. It is finally time to make a break."

No matter how strong the psychological quality is, people will feel a little tired after this period of stimulation.

What's more, Emperor Mingde is already quite old.

"You mean...?"

Jiang Qianruo didn't expect that he would suddenly figure it out.

"I plan to make Zhou'er the emperor's grandson instead and supervise the country on my behalf."

Jiang Qianruo was stunned: "That King Ping..."

Emperor Mingde's face looked complicated whenever he thought of Prince Ping.

He didn't know how to face his son at all.

When he was a child, he ignored King Ping because of his family background. When he grew up, he always disliked King Ping because of his family background. He simply threw people at the border and simply ignored him.

Sometimes when I was in a bad mood and saw Prince Ping's excerpts, I would write a special letter to scold him to vent my anger.

Now that it's better, it's become like this. Sometimes he escapes and thinks that it's better not to meet each other at all, so he just makes do with it.

But how is this possible?

As early as the day he learned the truth, he had already asked Jiang Qianruo's Haidong Qingbaibi to bring a secret message, and asked Prince Ping and his family to travel day and night to go to Beijing as soon as possible.

They must have left Liangzhou now...

"Prince Ping is already so old, and he is very nervous and likes to go straight when doing things. How many years can he sit on the throne even if he is given the throne? I don't think he is that material! I am optimistic about Haozhou'er."

Even if Prince Ping now wears the filter provided by the Queen, Emperor Mingde cannot say without conscience that he is a good material to be the emperor.
