Joy of Life: I'm really not a saint

This made Fan Xian frown.

"Your Majesty is still too anxious." Fan Jian sighed. He didn't want to speculate about others from a malicious perspective, but this person was Emperor Qing.

"What if Your Majesty has other plans?"

Chen Pingping smiled leisurely. He leaned over and patted Fan Xian's hand as he pushed the cart. He said softly, "When a person wants to use one thing to achieve the purpose of another thing, he will unconsciously simplify the process of the first thing. People are like this. Sometimes they only want to see the results and ignore the details of the process. I heard that Li An came to Qing Kingdom?"

Fan Xian seemed to be thinking about something.

"Anzhi, it's time for the eight departments in the courtyard to take action."

The Eighth Department of the Supervisory Council is in charge of public opinion in Beijing, including books, newspapers, etc. Chen Pingping's words were just to ask the Council to add more strength. Whether His Majesty intended it or not, they would nail the Princess to the pillar of shame in history!

In fact, things are so magical.

Although some ministers had guessed that His Majesty would abolish the crown prince, it would not be so quick. At this point, many people had not expected that His Majesty would directly let the crown prince bear all the blame. Except for the Supervisory Council and the Dali Temple who were still holding on to the crown prince, the others more or less still adhered to the orthodoxy in their hearts and wanted to try harder, after all, Fan Xian was an illegitimate child!

Even if the crown prince cannot be saved in the end, the second or third prince should take the throne!

"Your Majesty has made up his mind. What can I do?" Chen Pingping seemed very happy, but behind this smile, there was more crazy hatred. At this point, he didn't want to suppress it anymore, but he was Chen Pingping, and he always paid attention to details. "As early as yesterday, Your Majesty summoned me to the palace to discuss this matter. The Dadongshan Festival is scheduled for one and a half months later."

When Fan Jian frowned, Chen Pingping said slowly, "Anzhi, come to Chen Garden when you have free time."

"Dean?" Fan Xian was curious. He felt that Chen Pingping was very strange today.

"I have something for you."

······

After the court meeting, Li Chengqian left the hall through another door.

Although they were said to be leaving, they were actually "escorted" by the people from the clan house. Besides them, there was also a eunuch following them.

Before this, in addition to being confined to the clan house, Li Chengqian was not allowed to stay in the palace, let alone return to the Eastern Palace - a fire broke out in the Eastern Palace, and his father wanted to make all the filth disappear.

On the way back to the clan residence, Li Chengqian looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenes along the way, feeling lost. He knew that everything here would have nothing to do with him anymore.

He will not stop, nor will he be given any chance. After offering sacrifices to the sky at Mount Dadong, he will set off for the Kingdom of Nanzhao.

In name, they were going to contact and win over the people to solve the problem of food import, but in reality, they were exiling him. This was the best outcome, but he could not return to Kyoto.

"Eunuch, I would like to go and pay my respects to the Queen Mother. Is that possible?"

There was politeness in the prince's gentle tone, but there was some weariness in his expression, as if he had seen through everything that was fleeting.

The person in charge of this matter was one of the newly promoted eunuchs in charge, otherwise he would not have been responsible for supervising the clan house to look after the prince. Even so, he was stunned by the prince's words.

This... Did I hear it wrong?

The prince actually spoke to me in this tone?

He glanced around. Everyone in the palace was in a state of panic, and he was there to monitor the prince. His only duty was to send the prince to the clan house, but he had no power to decide where the prince was going.

It was just that the prince asked, and he had to answer, so he responded with a bitter face: "The prince is the master, no one dares to stop you from going anywhere you want, why are you asking about a servant?"

The prince's smile was somewhat self-deprecating and bitter. Hearing this, he sighed inwardly and realized that his idea was unrealistic.

As they walked, they passed by Guangxin Palace unconsciously.

I don’t know if it was Li Chengqian’s illusion, but he seemed to feel that the air here smelled sweeter.

Looking greedily in the direction of Guangxin Palace, Li Chengqian's mind flashed with the image of his aunt, and he remained silent for a long time.

Chapter 313 Getting Crazy!

The eunuch in charge of escorting him glanced at Li Chengqian cautiously and snorted with disdain in his heart.

What a beast he is. He looks all good on the outside, but in reality, he is worse than a eunuch like me!

Even though I am disabled, I still know what propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are, right?

The prince's mind was not here at the moment, and he did not take the eunuch's disdain beside him seriously. Of course, even if he knew what this person was thinking, he would not care. He looked in that direction with an expression that was almost crazy.

Once there is a devil in a person's heart, even where there is no wind, there can be three-foot waves.

Li Chengqian felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster, and getting colder and colder.

He remembered what his aunt had said, who in this world is not crazy and possessed? He and the people in this palace have the same blood, so why do the endings are completely different?

As his heartbeat quickened, an inexplicable madness and ambition grew within him.

Yes, he was insane at this moment.

He was not completely penniless, he still had his aunt! He still had the possibility of ascending to that position!

If he wants to achieve this goal, he must become crazier than everyone else!

I don't know if all people named Li Chengqian will rebel in the end. At this moment, Li Chengqian wants to raise an army and fight.

During the whole journey, everyone tried to avoid him when they saw him. If they couldn't avoid him, they would just give him a slight courtesy, which was considered considerate. But in the end, no one came forward to serve him.

When we arrived at the clan affairs office, it wasn't too late. After all, today's court meeting started unusually quickly.

"Sir, I am about to have dinner. If you don't mind, please stay and have some with me." Li Chengqian invited with a smile.

"I dare not do that."

The eunuch waved his hand quickly, looked at the dining hall, bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, please enjoy your meal. I am nearby. If you need anything, just call me!"

"Please excuse me, sir."

With a bow, the eunuch slowly left the room.

Li Chengqian ate his breakfast calmly. After a long while, he put down his bowl and chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a silk cloth, and whispered, "Are you still willing to fight with me?"

"I will follow your Highness' lead."

Inside the room, the two clan officials in charge of guarding Li Chengqian bowed and answered in a deep voice.

Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction, "I still have you, and I feel relieved!"

"Please go to the villa for me and give some words to my aunt."

He has no way out!

When he finished his breakfast, there were noises outside the door.

After a moment, a young eunuch with his head down and whose appearance could not be seen clearly pushed open the door, and then the queen slowly stepped into the room.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Li Chengqian was delighted, and then asked worriedly.

"My son, my son! I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay!" There was a crying tone in the Queen's voice. Where was Feng Yi, the mother of a country, at this moment?

Perhaps from the beginning, she realized that she was not suitable for this position.

Over the years, for the sake of her son, she had to hold on and try hard to pretend to be the mother of the country.

It’s all that vixen’s fault, it’s all that evil spirit!

It would be fine if he just went crazy, but why did he have to involve his own son?

The Queen's IQ is not top-notch, and she certainly can't compare to the smart people in the court, but she's not stupid either! After spending so many years with Li Yunrui, how could she not understand what he was thinking? Besides, he didn't want to hide anything at all!

She likes her brother!

It’s just that his own son suffers, he is the most like Your Majesty!

Smelling the alcohol on the queen, Li Chengqian was panicked, "Mother, why are you drinking so early in the morning? You drank quite a lot. Who is serving you? Don't you know how to persuade you?"

After saying this, he looked at the young eunuch with an angry look on his face.

The other person was so scared that he fell to the ground in panic.

It was rare for the queen to be so cared for by her own son. A glimmer of joy flashed in her eyes. She was half drunk and her speech was not clear at this time. She just said incoherently: "Don't be discouraged, just bear with it, just bear with it. As long as you can still live, everything will be fine!"

When the Queen heard today that His Majesty had sent her son to exile in Southern Zhao, she almost fainted.

Her heart was filled with despair. Having been married to Emperor Qing for more than twenty years, how could she not understand him?

She understood that man's ruthlessness best. Once she made a decision, she could never take it back. She kept stroking her son's cheek and whispered, "If you go to Nanzhao, your mother will not stay here anymore. She will definitely go with you!"

"Mother, why do you have to say such things?" Li Chengqian hugged his mother, patted her back, and said a few words of comfort. "You should go back quickly. The situation here now does not allow you to stay for long."

"Okay, okay, mother will go back soon, my son doesn't need to worry."

As if she had made up her mind, the queen gritted her teeth and whispered in her son's ear, "Son, no matter what decision you make, I will support you!"

Li Chengqian was startled and subconsciously looked around. Seeing that everyone was fine, he felt relieved.

Then, he nodded heavily towards the queen.

After the room had calmed down again, he spoke to the other person calmly, as if the prince had returned: "Go and tell my second brother, I have something to discuss with him!"

······

When the matter of deposing the crown prince was in full swing, the borders of several countries became unstable.

Last year, there was continuous heavy snow in the far north. The northern barbarians not only pressed towards the Western Hu border, but also brought pressure to Northern Qi.

They are indeed not strong, but in the face of oppression that could lead to death from cold and hunger, they would rather find a bite to eat under the knives of the two countries!

The Western Hu also got the news from somewhere, knowing that the Crown Prince of Qing had committed incest and was deposed, and that there would be chaos in the country, so they immediately deployed troops on the border of Qing, intending to take advantage of the situation.

And Northern Qi naturally would not miss this opportunity.

While approaching the border of Nanqing, they were still on guard against small moves by the Western Hu. At the same time, they were negotiating with the northern barbarians. The Northern Barbarians also seemed strange. They even agreed to become a vassal state of Northern Qi in the future, and there was only one condition - to use Li An to marry their princess, and then become the king of the Northern Barbarians!

However, this idea was decisively rejected by the King of Northern Qi.

Needless to say, Li An's identity as the national master is beyond doubt. Even with his master's combat power, no country would let him go.

However, this time the two countries were still negotiating, and the famous Northern Qi general Shangshan Hu unexpectedly did something that no one could have imagined - he suddenly sent out troops, risked his life to charge into the camp and killed the leader of the Northern Barbarians!

The Northern Barbarian Kingdom, which was already experiencing heavy snow, suddenly fell into chaos. Several forces in the country fought for high positions, and the former princess disappeared.

Now, the people of Northern Qi no longer have to worry about those barbarians from the wilderness attacking them from behind, and they can also free up their hands and feet to concentrate on dealing with the Kingdom of Qing!

However, Uesugi Tora, who had made extraordinary achievements, was urgently transferred back to the capital. Afterwards, not only was he not rewarded, but he was scolded and his military power was reduced.

Northern Qi benefited, but the biggest beneficiary was the Western Hu!

A large number of northern barbarian tribes came to surrender, which made their strength increase sharply after absorbing these populations!

Just imagine that the northern barbarians who were able to survive this melee and travel thousands of miles to find food were all young men and women selected from thousands of miles away.

The Qing Kingdom was attacked from all sides and the pressure increased sharply!

How long?

How long has it been since they were under pressure from the outside world?

In the past, they were the ones who attacked others, and in the end others had to cede land and pay compensation. How come things have been reversed now?

It seems that it’s all because of the evildoer in the country, it’s all the fault of that immoral prince!

The chaos caused by the dethronement of the crown prince, in turn, once again intensified the enthusiasm to dethrone the crown prince, and the Dadongshan Heavenly Sacrifice was already prepared!

Chapter 314: Preparing for war.

There is sea water on all sides, and this big ship is floating alone on the sea.

Li An was fishing at the bow of the boat with a fishing rod in his hand.

Everything is ready, everything is waiting for the actors to be in place

"Sir, can you catch fish with this? It's okay to use a straight hook, but you don't even put in any bait and just fish hard?" Haitang Duoduo was cracking melon seeds nearby, her legs dangling on the bow, the melon seed shells in her hand flying into the sea.

As early as half a month ago, they met on the coast of Dadong Mountain.

Except for Haitang Duoduo and Langtao, Wang Shisanlang did not return according to the opportunity. It is thought that he is still following Si Gu Jian.

"Is there any news coming back?" Li An asked softly.

"It will be half a month later."

Taoist He on the side responded softly.

"We'll move up the time!" Li An thought for a moment and then made a prediction, "They won't proceed according to the original schedule."

Taoist He had no doubts and nodded in agreement.

"Sir, don't we need soldiers? This time, the Qing Kingdom will be deposed by the Great Dongshan, and the Imperial Guards will definitely accompany us. Add to that Chen Pingping's Supervisory Council and the Fan Mansion Tiger Guards you mentioned. Even if we can succeed, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to escape unscathed!"
