Chapter 114: Winning by doing nothing

Chapter 114

After reading it, he hissed, "Xue Huaimin is on the life and death list, and it is said that he has been secretly monitored." I knew that he would not have a good end, but I didn't expect it to be so soon.

Lu Songli took it and took a look. She was a little surprised. Xue Huaimin was on the life and death list of Emperor Kang Cheng so quickly? She thought that Emperor Kang Cheng was still in the stage of suspicion of the fourth prince. Once Xue Huaimin's incident happened, it proved that Emperor Kang Cheng was very sure that it was his good deed.

Lu Desheng sighed, "It's also pitiful. The merit of following the dragon is about to be obtained, but it failed at the moment of success. Now one by one, they are being dealt with by the emperor." Thinking that he wanted to get on the boat a few days ago, he inexplicably felt a little cold in his neck.

"It's just the difference between dying early and dying late. Xue Huaimin's desire for power is so strong. After the fourth prince successfully ascends the throne, he will become a hindrance to the new emperor, and sooner or later he will be abandoned by him." At this point, Lu Songli realized that something was wrong.

Xue Huaimin's situation is not right. It happened too quickly. He worked so hard for so long, but he didn't enjoy the fruits of his competence. He was about to be taken away by Emperor Kang Cheng?

"Dad, do you think Xue Huaimin and others were exposed too quickly? Xue Huaimin and others seemed to be deliberately pushed out to let Emperor Kang Cheng vent his anger." Did she think too much?

"Didn't you ask me to believe in the emperor's monitoring of all officials before?"

Lu Songli said helplessly, "But it didn't happen that quickly." She pondered for a long time about the exile of the Qin family before she found out about the fourth prince and Xue Huaimin. No matter how strong the emperor's monitoring power was, it shouldn't be that fast. It was too smooth, too silky.

Lu Desheng: "Do you think it's possible that the second or third prince did it?"

"It shouldn't be them." They don't have the strength or the brains, "I'm more inclined to believe that this was directed and acted by the fourth prince."

"What's the purpose?"

"Xue Huaimin and others were helpers before he seized the throne, but after he ascended the throne, he would become a hindrance to the new emperor. The emperor's disposal of these people not only failed to punish the fourth prince, but helped the fourth prince instead." The more Lu Songli compared the benefits obtained by Emperor Kang Cheng and the fourth prince, the more he felt that Emperor Kang Cheng seemed to be used by someone.

"No way?" Lu Desheng's scalp tingled, "The fourth prince's mind wouldn't be that deep, right? And he hasn't ascended the throne yet, so he disposed of these meritorious officials so quickly? Too risky, right?" The fourth prince is only fourteen years old, he shouldn't have that kind of courage, right?

Lu Songli also felt that such a strategy and such courage were not like what the fourth prince would have. Is there a think tank behind him?

Following this speculation, Xue Huaimin's fate makes sense. Not only was he abandoned by the Fourth Prince, but he was also taken away by someone else. With the two factors superimposed, it is not surprising that he has such an end. So who could this person be? In this game, he has taken human scheming to the extreme, which is amazing.

When she knew about the emperor's burial list before, she thought it was a good thing. She thought that if the Fourth Prince was the final winner, she would trade Xue Huaimin with him when the right time came. She used the burial list to send Xue Huaimin away for him, which would not only help him get rid of the people who hindered him but also not damage his reputation as a new monarch.

Now that she realized that there was a think tank behind the Fourth Prince, she knew that her move was preempted by someone else.

When Lu Desheng heard his daughter's words, he couldn't help but say, "Xue Huaimin is really miserable." There are so many people who want his life.

What miserable or not, as the saying goes, political games are cruel. Sometimes, the position between hunter and prey is reversed in an instant.

"My daughter, you said that the fourth prince is not afraid of playing too much if he plays like this?" Lu Desheng still couldn't believe it. He was so sure that Emperor Kangcheng would eventually choose him as the heir?

Lu Songli tried to analyze the reason why the fourth prince did this. The fourth prince knew that he could not hide it from the emperor. After the death of the prince, Emperor Kangcheng would definitely suspect him. Instead of hiding and being found in the end, it is better to take the initiative to expose. He also needs an opportunity to show his courage, skills, intelligence and agility, so that the emperor can recognize him. In addition, it is very likely that his think tank discovered that the plan they made before was not as easy to succeed as the current one.

After listening to the explanation of his daughter, Lu Desheng thought that it was true that he showed his ability, and it was also true that he harmed the prince and used the emperor. Your Majesty, you are not striving for success. If you had a few more sons and raised them, you would not be bullied by the fourth prince like this, and I would not have to worry about it, woo woo woo.

Because of the people behind the fourth prince, Lu Desheng could already foresee that the fourth prince could pass the test of Emperor Kangcheng. For a time, he looked a little depressed.

"Dad, this is also a good thing for us."

"Good thing?"

"They underestimated the emperor too much. They set traps for the emperor one after another. Do you really think the emperor can't see it when he reaches this point?"

Lv Desheng nodded. Indeed, they can all find that the emperor is being used. How could the emperor not find it?

"The fourth prince's move is equivalent to asking the emperor to pinch his nose and recognize him as the heir. Do you think the emperor will be angry?"

"Angry!"

"Think about it, an emperor who has never held his breath in his life, and you let him go with a breath of anger at the end? It's impossible, even for a son! So, this anger must be vented!"

You killed the prince and used me to clear the obstacles for you. I have to let you ascend the throne. I recognize it! But you want everything to go smoothly and be proud of yourself? That won't work.

You want to get rid of the Qin family? I just don't like you!

In the Fourth Prince's plan, he intended to blame the Qin family for the death of the crown prince and take the opportunity to get rid of the Qin family. This was the Fourth Prince's political stain, and he definitely wanted to erase it. Only a dead person could cover up the secret forever. Moreover, with the Fourth Prince's ruthlessness and narrow-mindedness, since he had offended the Qin family, he would definitely have the idea of ​​eradicating the roots.

After all, Emperor Kang Cheng had been the emperor for more than 20 years, so he could naturally see through all this. It was too easy to control the lifeblood of the Fourth Prince.

Lu Songli always believed that their emperor was a bit of a middle-aged rebellious. The most important thing was that this decision was made against the Fourth Prince's wishes, or to disgust him, without damaging the foundation of Dali. The main reason was that the Qin family had always been too docile, so that Emperor Kang Cheng did not feel the danger.

At this point, Lu Songli's heart was pounding. She had been having a headache about how to save the Qin family. If things really developed in the direction she speculated, what was the difference between that and a pie in the sky? For the first time, she felt like she had won by lying down.

Lu Desheng thought about it seriously and said, "Based on my understanding of Emperor Kang Cheng, he might really do this." If that doesn't work, they can also ask someone to give him some guidance.
