His Royal Highness, he is plotting against me

Chapter 40

"Huh? Why did it stop?"

After a silence, it took a few breaths before His Majesty the Emperor came to his senses.

Only then did he see Wu Qiao standing in the middle of the hall, and he was a little surprised:

"What's wrong with Wu Shangshu? I violated the banquet again?"

This bastard has become a minister of the Ministry of Industry, and he likes to write notes when he has nothing to do, saying that he is wrong here and there.

Build a palace building, saying that you can't do it here, but it is illegal there.

You can't have a banquet and not even let you enjoy the singing and dancing, right?
Wu Qiao has no control over this matter, but it does not prevent our Majesty from taking the opportunity to ridicule him.

Standing there, Wu Qiao blushed at His Majesty's words.

The co-author didn't even hear what he said...

If someone else has this level, they will come down.

But he is Wu Qiao.

He is not very good-looking, so he wants to get a beautiful Wu Qiao.

Today, he only felt that his nephew had once again crushed the prince to his feet. From childhood to adulthood, there have been too many such scenes. He also beat the dog in the water countless times, forcing the prince of a country to retreat again and again. It was extremely fun!
It won't be long before King Yi becomes the crown prince, and their Wu family will become the most powerful family in Shangjing. At that time, King Cui Lu and Xie will all be defeated by them.

"Your Majesty, I just have some doubts. I am also a disciple of Grand Tutor Lu. I don't know if the crown prince has found treasures for offering sacrifices to Longzu and the ancestors of Dajing during this Duanyang?"

The hall was very quiet, and Wu Qiao's voice came to everyone's ears more clearly than before.

Everyone thought, this person is either really strong, or really arrogant.

It is true that King Yi is better than the prince, but this is not the reason for him to openly provoke the prince, is it just a minister of the Ministry of Industry?
Oh, this man is still King Yi's uncle, and he also has the title of Duke of Qiaojun, which was left to him by his father, Duke Qiao.

The emperor squinted his eyes and looked at the people standing under the stage.

good boy!

I respect you for being a man!

The prince is worried that there is no place to cut the knife, so you will send your neck here.

However, he smiled and looked at the Taifu of his two sons:

"Teacher, what do you say?"

Mrs. Lu: "..."

What can he say?
Sure enough, he came from a reckless background, with no heart, and even shallow eyelids!
Mrs. Lu could only stand up and say:

"Your Majesty, I think that King Yi's filial piety and sincerity can be commended for finding auspiciousness this time, but the crown prince has a pure heart, a pure heart, and is busy with government affairs, so naturally he has no time to look after others, so he found auspiciousness for Dajing."

The emperor glanced at the prince with a half-smile,
"Oh? I remember that King Yi was also practicing in the Ministry of Industry, right?"

Taifu smiled awkwardly, as if he didn't know how to answer this question.

But his indescribable expression clearly expressed his inner thoughts.

The prince knew that his father's look clearly said:

Look, son, the old man Lu Xie is conceiving you again.

How come others have time to find Xiangrui, while you are busy with government affairs?

Doesn't this mean that the prince's ability is not good enough, he is not as good as King Yi!

This old man has been proficient in languages ​​for decades, and even he, who was the emperor before, suffered a lot from him.

The prince just showed his face and smiled, making everyone present feel like a spring breeze.

He said: "Teacher is right. I'm a loner with little knowledge. I'm busy with government affairs all day long, so I really don't have time to prepare treasures."

If nothing else, their prince is indeed a modest gentleman, with a handsome appearance, and his gestures are quite elegant.

But he is the prince of a country!
Today's His Majesty is inherently weak, if the prince of a country is also like this, then sooner or later Dajing will be divided up by the big family.

This is the reason why some military generals and very few common people are not optimistic about the prince.

They also come from a rich family, obviously the prince whose mother is the Langya Wang family and Yi Wang who is a commoner family make them more willing to support.

Today and the former emperor, it is because of the great power of the descendants that the emperor's power is weak.

Many royalists and commoners in the court wanted to change this situation, so naturally they didn't like the prince who married another princess from the Wang family.

In addition, there is no offspring in the East Palace so far, and King Yi also got married this year.

At that time, if there is an edict from the first emperor, can Dajing be handed over to a prince without heirs?
These people don't know that their prince is about to show them what it means to be a "not weak" prince...

But the prince is a prince after all.

The first emperor passed away when he was seven years old, and he has been the crown prince for nearly 20 years. He is not without foundation in the court.

As soon as His Majesty said this, Mrs. Lu only smiled awkwardly but did not refute, anyone with a brain could see it.

"Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness Yi Wang is also studying in the Ministry of Industry, how can he compare with the prince's cousin? Your Majesty, you are strategizing and taking care of everything. As the prince, the prince's cousin dare not slack off every day. He follows you every day and follows Cui Xiangye." How can a mere Ministry of Industry be able to compare with the study of governing the country and governing the country and the affairs of the world?"

The man paused, looked at Mrs. Lu again, and reluctantly added:

"Oh, I still have to learn from Grand Tutor Lu, so it's understandable that I don't have time to find any treasures!"

The emperor laughed loudly when he heard the words, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this nephew's stepping on his son.

He just reprimanded indifferently: "Qi Linzi, don't be naughty, Mr. Lu is the elder of the three dynasties, you must not be disrespectful!"

Qilinzi, whose surname is Zhu and given name Qilin, is the emperor's nephew and the prince's cousin.

He is also the number one fan of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

His mother is the only sibling of His Majesty today, and his father and brother are both famous generals in the southwest, and they are also invincible little overlords in Shangjing.

After all, the emperor had quite a few nephews, and there was only one named by him, and he loved this only nephew very dearly.

So even though he reprimanded him at this time, he didn't say that what Zhu Qilin said was wrong.

Instead, his mother gave him a hard look.

Zhu Qilin didn't care about his mother, but showed a provocative smile towards King Yi.

King Yi's face remained unchanged, and he even raised his glass to him in the mood, as if the situation in the palace had nothing to do with him.

snort!
hypocrite!
Just keep on pretending!

Zhu Qilin continued to scold him a hundred times in his heart, only to see his cousin finally stood up.

Mrs. Lu stroked his gray beard, and said with the expression of an ignorant child fooling around:

"Young Duke and Your Highness are very close, it's really enviable..."

The words seem to be good words, but when they come out of the mouth of a bad person, the meaning changes.

The prince first gave a deep bow to his father and the prince, highlighting his upright and respectful character to the fullest.

"Father, Gu has indeed never traveled thousands of miles to find treasures for Dajing like the third brother, but... I think everyone, like Wu Shangshu, has a lot of talk about this matter. After thinking about it, there is indeed a great gift , send it to Father Emperor."

The emperor showed a surprised expression: "Oh? The prince still has a big gift to offer?"

He looked at his courtier with a smile, and said cheerfully: "This is really strange."

Everyone laughed and said "rare" in their hearts.

Their prince has always been unwilling to compete with King Yi, and even they sometimes feel useless, but this prince gave up because of some "brothers and friends".

His Majesty the Emperor couldn't wait: "Come on, Prince, quickly present your gift to me and all the officials to have a look!"

The crown prince glanced at Mrs. Lu, and smiled when he met the other party's winning expression.

"Please come up with the lonely gift!"

As soon as His Royal Highness finished speaking, everyone's eyes gathered in the direction of the entrance of the hall, secretly expecting what kind of "big gift" the crown prince would present.

-

　Prince: "It's a really great gift~ I hope the Tai Tuo likes it~"
