But getting rid of the prince is not easy.

Until now, after several compromises and concessions, the power of the East Palace has been expanding, and the current prince is no longer what it used to be, not to mention that he is no longer the waste prince who was ignored back then, even if it was compared to when he was just overseeing the country, there was only one empty name, and the current prince has already fledged up.

It was no longer the person she and her father could get rid of if they wanted, but the crown prince who could really affect the foundation of the empire.

But…… So what?

Zhao Qinglan looked directly at Li Chen and did not flinch at all.

She knew that if she didn’t do it, she would just do it, and once she did, she would never be able to back down.

Li Chen was also looking at Zhao Qinglan.

His calm eyes were like an abyss without the slightest wave, pitch black as ink, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Suddenly, Li Chen laughed.

This smile made the almost solidified air in Xi Zheng Hall begin to flow again, just like the frozen earth ushered in spring blossoms, and everything returned to normal.

“It seems that after the Ninth Prince, the Empress has found a more suitable candidate.”

Zhao Qinglan tightened his face and said firmly: “Although the emperor has many heirs, there are not many who survive to adulthood, and it is also your father’s wish to cultivate a few brothers to help the future emperor earlier, and the prince is benevolent and as a brother, he can’t stop his younger brother’s way?”

“Of course not.”

Li Chen said lightly: “Isn’t it to be a king, yes, I promise.”

Without waiting for Zhao Qinglan to breathe a sigh of relief and show a happy expression, Li Chen said again: “But the title cannot be King Wu.” ”

Just kidding, when Taizu rebelled, he was appeased by the previous dynasty before he ascended the throne, and it was King Wu who was crowned King Wu, so since the Great Qin Dynasty for more than three hundred years, the princes who were given the title King of Wu can be counted on one hand.

How could Li Chen give such a meaningful title.

“Just seal the king of Zhao, title Zhao, as for the fiefdom placement, such a major matter, how about making arrangements in the future?”

Hearing the title of King Zhao, Zhao Qinglan frowned and wanted to object.

But seeing Li Chen’s indifferent face, Zhao Qinglan listened to him before he could speak: “I have already decided.”

Zhao Qinglan’s words were blocked back, and she paused, thinking that he had any title, as long as he could be crowned king, then the purpose of this trip could be achieved.

The most important thing is to force the prince to be anxious, and she does not dare to guarantee that Li Chen will do something, so thinking so, Zhao Qinglan said: “Yes, since the prince also agreed, then immediately announce the hundred officials.”

“Okay.”

Li Chen’s cheerfulness made Zhao Qinglan even think that there would be nothing tricky about this matter.

But looking at Li Chen’s smile and face without any dissatisfaction and malice, Zhao Qinglan felt that he was thinking too much.

After all, the matter was proposed by himself, and letting the eighth prince Li Yinhu crown the king could not be bad for himself no matter how he looked at it, and it was good for the prince.

She can only attribute it to the prince’s helplessness and deliberate deliberation to appear decent.

Just when Zhao Qinglan’s mind was turning, Li Chen had already got up and opened the door of Xi Zheng Palace.

Outside the door, everyone was still there.

“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”

Looking at the person kneeling on the ground, Li Chen said lightly: “Go and inform the Zongren Mansion that the Zongren Ling Lord will come, and another eunuch with a pen will serve with him, and then call all the university scholars in the Beijing Cabinet to meet at the Xi Zheng Hall.”

As soon as these words came out, people with a little political acumen were surprised.
