Chapter 961
There was a moment of silence in the hall, and everyone thought they heard it wrong.

However, some people with quick thoughts quickly understood the deep meaning.

King Ning has a close relationship with the King of Lingnan. Would King Ning not know if he mines gold mines privately?
Now that Rong Jiu has presented the evidence, it is conclusive. Let King Ning investigate thoroughly, but it depends on how he chooses, whether to collude with the Lingnan King and intend to do something against him, or to pull out the carrot and bring out the mud. More evidence of Lingnan King's crimes.

King Ning obviously also guessed Rong Jiu's intentions, and he gritted his teeth with hatred: "The matter of the gold mine may just have not been reported to the emperor in time, and my son does not believe that the King of Lingnan has the intention of treason, and the emperor should leave this case to others to investigate." , so that no one will think that the sons and ministers are covering up for personal gain."

Emperor Chu looked at it with his eyes, but said: "In front of the evidence, who dares to question, this matter is settled like this. You will go to Lingnan to investigate thoroughly today."

"My son obeys the order."

King Ning's eyes were cold and gloomy.

Just now the courtiers recommended him as the crown prince, but the Emperor Chu was unmoved. If he loses the support of the King of Lingnan again, what else will he have to fight for?
Rong Jiu's attack was so fast and ruthless that there was no way out.

After retreating from the imperial court, Emperor Chu called Rong Jiu to the Zichen Hall and asked, "Just now, the courtiers proposed that King Li Ning be the crown prince. What do you think?"

"Isn't the father aware of it? Why are you asking me?"

"Among the many princes, apart from Xun'er, I love him the most. In order to avoid fratricide, I raised all the other princes, but in the end I raised a ruthless waste, who can kill even my own brothers." , Xiao Jiu, I have so many princes, but no one is available."

Hearing Emperor Chu's sigh, Rong Jiu's eyebrows twitched, and she couldn't help but think of what Chu Xun said about making her the empress dowager.

"Father, why don't you choose someone who is talented and intelligent from the royal family, and train them. Father is in the prime of life, and after decades, are you afraid that you won't be able to teach someone to be a wise king?"

"No matter how talented you are, it's not as good as you."

"Southern Chu has been established for a hundred years, and there has never been a female emperor. Besides, the father is not without heirs. Those ministers are all stubborn. If they wake up, they will kill you."

"I have made my own arrangements for this matter. The people regard you as a god. Regardless of the government and the opposition, people's hearts are united. It is a great blessing for the country and the people to have you as the empress dowager."

Rong Jiu was full of depression, raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll indulge in pleasure and ignore government affairs?"

Emperor Chu said: "I believe in you."

Rong Jiu rolled his eyes at him and changed the subject: "Actually, apart from mining gold mines, the King of Lingnan also built an army privately?"

After being shocked, Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes sharply, and said coldly: "The King of Lingnan has long intended to seek rebellion. If he instigates King Ning to raise troops, Eastern Zhou will have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

As he said that, he frowned: "Xiao Jiu, why did you let King Ning go to Lingnan?"

A smile appeared on the corner of Rong Jiu's lips, and he said: "Letting King Ning go to Lingnan is just a smoke bomb. Yesterday, Seventh Brother went to Lingnan to secretly collect evidence of the Lingnan King's crimes. At that time, once the Lingnan King's crimes are announced to the world, Ning No matter how stupid the king is, he will not be instigated by him."

Unable to restrain his excitement, Emperor Chu grabbed her hand and asked, "What did you say, Xun'er, Xun'er is not dead?"

"Seventh brother knew that someone was laying an ambush in front of the sky, so he used the plan and used a trick to escape the shell."

"Why didn't you tell me yesterday?"

"I didn't know until I went to Chu Palace later, but Father still has to put on a look of grief. King Ning is easy to deceive, and those old foxes in the court, especially Prime Minister Xiao, are not easy to fool."
