The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 771 Who Will Become the Crown Prince?

Gu Chengyu nodded, the crown prince was about to be established, it would be foolish to leave at this time.

Maybe he will be assassinated on the way, and besides, the eldest prince may not be able to solve the case if he goes!

"What happened to the other three princes?" Gu Chengyu thought of Prince Jing, and he was definitely not selected by the emperor for the crown prince.

As soon as the crown prince is established, he and the other princes will go to fief the land, can he be willing?

"The second prince didn't make much movement in the household department. Although he didn't have any merits, he has no faults. Even if those factions want to catch his faults, there is nothing they can do."

When Yin Kun talked about the second prince, although the evaluation in his words was very impressive, Gu Chengyu heard the meaning of appreciation in his tone.

Could it be that Yin Kun is very optimistic about the second prince, and is planning to stand in line?

When he heard Yin Kun mention the second prince before, there was nothing special in his tone.It seems that during his return to his hometown, many things happened in the capital.

However, this does not rule out that Yin Kun was originally the second prince, but he did not reveal it before.

Now that the crown prince is about to be established, Yin Kun suddenly revealed his intention, is it to win him over and make him the second prince's party?
But just now the senior brother warned him not to get too close to the princes, Gu Chengyu felt that it was better to figure out the senior brother's intentions.

Just when Gu Chengyu was thinking about it, and wanted to take a side shot at Yin Kun, Yin Kun mentioned the third prince again.

"The third prince was imprisoned by the emperor some time ago. During this time, the emperor treated him with some serious words. He was assigned a leisurely job to supervise the manufacture of weapons in the Military Weapons Bureau of the Ministry of Industry."

Gu Chengyu twitched the corners of his mouth, it was quite relaxing.

The Weapons Bureau has blueprints for manufacturing weapons, and the third prince can't play a big role.

However, if he can innovate in weapons and put them to practical use, then maybe he can really make some political achievements.

"Did Prince Jing make any changes?" Compared to the first three on the bright side, Gu Chengyu paid more attention to Prince Jing.

Prince Jing is a man of strategy, can endure, and is even more unscrupulous. Gu Chengyu thinks that this man should make some moves in private.

However, he didn't know whether officials like Yin Kun could detect it.

He decided that it was necessary to remind Yin Kun that it was better to take precautions.

When it comes to King Jing, Yin Kun's expression is a little inexplicable.

"Prince Jing's health has improved, and he has been in court for more than half a month."

Gu Chengyu was a little surprised, is this Prince Jing planning to expose his purpose?

Is this urgent?If he is not exposed, he may really be insulated from the throne.

However, at this juncture, it seems that there is no need to remind yourself, even Yin Kun has doubts about Prince Jing, right?

"As for the errand, the emperor didn't let him take it. He just told him to rest and take care of his body. Even if he goes to fiefdom in the future, the emperor can rest assured."

The emperor's attitude is very firm!The candidate for the crown prince in the emperor's heart is definitely not Prince Jing, is this an idea to dispel Prince Jing earlier?

After Yin Kun finished speaking, he suddenly asked Gu Chengyu a question that is of great concern to the whole court.

"Jinyu! Who do you think the emperor will appoint as the crown prince?"

Yin Kun's eyes were fixed on Gu Chengyu, as if he wanted to see the deep heart of the opposite person in those bright eyes.

Gu Chengyu was taken aback when he heard the words, he still doesn't know whether Yin Kun is hiding anything from him.

He secretly sighed, seniors are only seniors after all, there will be temptations and precautions between them.

No matter!Let's make a deal with Yin Kun, and hope that their brothers and sisters can stand on the same front in the future, and don't become enemies who are wary of each other and need to calculate.

Gu Chengyu smiled wryly and said: "We are senior brothers, and the junior fellows don't say those false words to the senior fellows."

He pondered for a moment, and then said: "You know the emperor's temperament, I can't guess the holy will."

Yin Kun couldn't help showing a little disappointment, could it be that Jinyu was on guard against herself?Such words are too perfunctory.

Gu Chengyu ignored Yin Kun's expression, and continued: "I'm only talking about my own analysis. Of course, I'm not very familiar with the princes, so I may have misjudged them. Brother, let's see if my analysis is correct."

"Just say it, we brothers should advance and retreat together. If you say it, we can discuss it."

Yin Kun's complexion eased a lot, and he was quite satisfied with Gu Chengyu's statement.

"It goes without saying that the First Prince is capable, but the First Prince has a ruthless temper. If our Dayan Dynasty is in troubled times or when it is expanding its territory, then the First Prince is the best candidate for the crown prince."

Yin Kun agrees with Gu Chengyu's analysis of the eldest prince.

"Of course, the eldest prince has abilities, but he doesn't seem to have a broad mind. If he becomes the crown prince, he seems to need to cultivate himself."

These words provoked Gu Chengyu to glance at Yin Kun. It seems that in Yin Kun's heart, the eldest prince should not be his candidate to stand in line.

"It is rumored that the second prince is kind-hearted by nature, but he is a little indecisive. Ability! I heard that it is still lacking."

Gu Chengyu used the words rumor and heard, which made Yin Kun narrow his eyes slightly.

"Rumours? What about your own thoughts?"

Yin Kun frowned and took a sip from the tea bowl on the table, as if he was a little dissatisfied with Gu Chengyu's objective evaluation.

Gu Chengyu watched Yin Kun rubbing his fingers with his right hand and smiled slightly.

"Senior brother! I only met the second prince once, or did I say a few words when I was in the court. I don't know him well, so how can I make rash comments?"

"Let's talk about the third prince, who is related to Wan Xuenian's death, the senior brother will not know, and the emperor is even more clear, otherwise he would not ask the third prince to lead the errand of the Military Weapons Bureau. What's more, his family has undergone major changes. The family members have all become sinners, and now there should be many fewer officials in the court supporting him than before."

A prince without the support of his family has limited abilities.To be honest, he didn't like it.

But he didn't intend to be too absolute. Before the last step, who would know which prince was crowned the Great Treasure?

"You mean you don't like the third prince?" Yin Kun put down the tea bowl and thought about it.

"That's not true. Didn't you say that the Concubine Xian is very sacred? Besides, although the emperor has been somewhat dissatisfied with the third prince in the past two years, the third prince was still somewhat capable in doing things in the past two years."

Yin Kun rolled his eyes, which means he didn't say anything.

"Then what do you think of Prince Jing?"

When Yin Kun talked about King Jing, his expression was much more serious than before.

"Maybe Prince Jing is not as indifferent to world affairs as he appears on the surface? I think he still has ambitions for the crown prince."

This time Gu Chengyu didn't choose to hide it, but his directness made Yin Kun stunned for a moment.

"You mean he's doing something secretly? But he's just an idle prince. He has no support from outsiders, and he hasn't received any errands. Who can support him among those courtiers? Even if he has ambitions, he has more than enough energy. What's more His body..."
