Chapter 546 The situation changes suddenly
The matter is in the inner palace, but it depends on the court. Empress Changsun's critical illness has had a great impact on the court, not to mention that Empress Changsun even said that she would make the King of Chu her son.

In the Lizheng Palace, half a day's work has an impact on the court hall that is comparable to ten years. Unknowingly, the wind in the court hall has changed.

One of Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong is the elder brother of Empress Changsun, and the other is the son-in-law of Empress Changsun. Empress Changsun is critically ill.

On the passageway out of the palace, Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong walked side by side, Changsun Wuji walked beside Changsun Chong, looking at his beloved son beside him, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Changsun Chong returned to Beijing for four months. In just four months, Changsun Wuji felt that Changsun Chong had changed a lot compared to before. He acted resolutely, calmly and kindly. A cowardly and gentle young man.

Changsun Wuji couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Changsun Chong followed him for so many years, but he didn't teach him anything. The battlefield between Li Ke and Mobei taught him in just three years, and the teaching was very good. Changsun Chong also learned a lot. good.

"Chong'er, because my father doesn't have a close relationship with the King of Chu, I don't know the situation of the Prince Chu's mansion. Is Princess Chu pregnant enough?" Changsun Wuji asked Changsun Chong.

Changsun Wuji and Li Ke are at odds, but Changsun Chong and Li Ke are very close, and the father and son have quarreled several times because of this, so Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong often deliberately avoid topics related to Li Ke when they are together. But today Changsun Wuji took the initiative to mention it, and Changsun Chong also felt a little surprised.

Chang Sunchong replied truthfully: "I have just entered the Ministry of Rites and I am very busy. I haven't visited the palace for the past few days, but I just met Qin Huaidao of General Qin's family the day before yesterday. I heard from him that the concubine will give birth in just a few days. It's day."

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Princess Chu's birth is a big event. You used to be a servant of the King of Chu. Although you are busy with official duties, you still need to walk around a lot sometimes. Don't let the King of Chu feel that you are born, and it is strange."

Changsun Chong said: "That's not the case. The so-called friendship between gentlemen is like water, and that's what happened to me and the governor. The governor knows that Xiao'er is busy with ministry affairs these days, so he wouldn't be surprised."

Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "That being said, adding a heir is a major event in the Prince of Chu's mansion, and it should not be neglected. You'd better take some free time and go there."

Upon hearing the words, Chang Sun Chong asked in puzzlement, "Father has always disliked Xi'er getting too close to the governor, why did he make such a statement today?"

Changsun Wuji stopped slowly, looked at the sky which had gradually turned yellow, sighed, and said to Changsun Chong: "The queen is critically ill, I'm afraid the day will change, think about it carefully today, there are some things I can do for my father. It’s not necessarily right.”

Changsun Chong continued: "Father is referring to the matter of the governor of the capital?"

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "The affairs of the world are by no means static. As my father, to protect the crown prince's position in the East Palace, he suppressed the King of Chu for ten years, but he still couldn't. After today, the power of the King of Chu has been established. , it’s hard to stop.”

In the past, Li Ke didn't have the status of a legitimate son, but he still overwhelmed Li Chengqian. Now that Li Ke has the status of a legitimate son, is Li Chengqian still Li Ke's opponent?

The eldest grandson Chong said: "So father wants my son to get close to the governor, and use the influence of the governor to protect the entire eldest grandson's family."

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said, "It's not the entire Changsun family, it's you and your future children."

Chang Sun Chong asked in puzzlement, "Where did daddy say that?"

Changsun Wuji replied: "My father and the king of Chu have been enemies for many years, and we hate each other deeply. If the prince ascends the throne in the future, the king of Chu will not be tolerated. But if the king of Chu ascends the throne in the future, he will not tolerate the prince and his father. The bureau is in turmoil, the butcher's knife is on the rise again, you are under the Chu king's family, and our eldest grandson's family will never go down."

If it was in the past, Changsun Wuji and Li Ke were enemies, and if Li Ke ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in the future, Li Ke would never let Changsun Wuji and his family go for the stability of the court.

But it is different now. Chang Sun Chong has been a minister under Li Ke for three years, and has accumulated good contacts and relationships with Li Ke and everyone under his sect. If the Changsun family attacked, they would definitely be lenient with Changsun Chong, and they would not make things difficult.

Changsun Chong said: "The King of Chu is generous, it will never be like this. If Dad can put down his dignity and make friends with the King of Chu at this time, with the face of his son and the princess, the King of Chu will definitely not make things difficult for Dad in the future."

Changsun Wuji shook his head resolutely, with a trace of paranoia in his eyes, he said to Changsun Chong: "No, I haven't lost yet, and neither has the Changsun's family. It's just a deal, our chances of winning are still there, the queen has not completely given up on the crown prince and the king of Wei, otherwise the queen will not meet the king of Chu alone."

As Changsun Wuji said, Empress Changsun did not completely abandon the prince. If she completely gave up on the prince, why would she need to talk to Li Ke in private? Ke is.

Empress Changsun gave Li Ke the status of the eldest son. If Li Ke wants to become the prince, everything must first depose the prince and make Li Chengqian lose his position, otherwise everything is false.

Changsun Chong said: "The current situation is already like this, so why should Dad insist on making things difficult for the Governor?"

Changsun Wuji patted Changsun Chong on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I am Sikong, the founding father of the country, and conquered the country together with His Majesty. What is he, Li Ke, who deserves to call me down?"

Changsun Wuji is an old fox, and he is quite tactful in his actions above the court, but this old fox also has his own pride and dignity, he is round on the outside but inside on the inside.Just like in history he would rather die than bow to Wu Meiniang 20 years later, the current Changsun Wuji will never bow to Li Ke.

Changsun Chong said worriedly: "The prince is not a generous and benevolent person. Father indulges me in friendship with the king of Chu and ignores it. The prince will not be ignorant. It may make the prince dissatisfied. How can the prince tolerate it?" Daddy. At that time, daddy offended the king of Chu and failed to make friends with the crown prince. Wouldn't it be difficult for him to be in a difficult situation?"

Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said: "With the methods and abilities of the prince, it is absolutely difficult for him to compete with Li Ke alone. He must rely on the influence of the grandson's family. If the prince can tolerate me, he will tolerate me, and if he can't tolerate me, he will have to." Rong, even if he ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor in the future, that's the case."

Changsun Chong listened to Changsun Wuji's words, and fell silent immediately. As a son of man, he knew that Changsun Wuji's temper was something he had already determined, and no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be of no avail.

Chang Sun Chong said: "Since father has already chosen the path, it is inconvenient for son to ask more questions. Father should be more cautious in everything, and don't let yourself fall into it."

Changsun Wuji looked at Changsun Chong beside him, and said, "Since Your Majesty proclaimed himself emperor, the empress was crowned empress, and the crown prince entered the East Palace, the prosperity and decline of our eldest grandson's family has been tied to the crown prince. Only the crown prince ascends the throne, and my eldest grandson The family can reach its peak and become a giant in the world like the seven clans and five surnames. There is no one in the world who does not take risks. For the sake of the eldest grandson's family, I have to take this trap, and I have to take it."
