Chapter 1,624 Civil and military discord, internal and external jealousy

When it came to Wu Xu, several people fell silent again.

Queen Changsun knew that Zhao Chen would not do anything to Wu Xu.

But if Zhao Chen doesn't do anything to Wu Xu, how can the officials agree so easily.

What's more, the person who opposed Zhao Chen being canonized as prince turned out to be Fang Xuanling who should have supported him the most.

People's support is against him, and this will not be of any benefit to Zhao Chen.

But Wu Xu's affairs will always affect Zhao Chen. The most direct one is that Zhao Chen cannot become the prince.

Emperor Chuan III, Wu Dynasty Li Xing.

This prophecy is like a curse, lingering in the hearts of every Tang Dynasty official.

After the emperor said this, his eyes fell on Zhao Chen's face.

He actually knew in his heart that Zhao Chen would not take action against Wu Xu, but there had to be a solution to this matter.

The emperor hoped that Zhao Chen could make the right decision.

It shouldn't be that difficult for a woman to give up, and a woman who is half-following, and who has also worked with the enemy to deal with her own people.

Zhao Chen was silent.

He had already guessed why Fang Xuanling said those words in front of hundreds of officials, and also knew that Wu Xu's matter made many ministers dissatisfied.

If I don't deal with Wu Xu, it will be difficult to win over these people.

But why should I deal with Wu Xu?

Emperor Chuan III, Wu Dynasty Li Xing.

He was not talking about himself, but Li Zhi.

With his own skills, it is impossible for Wu Xu to seize power.

The best way is, of course, not to kill Wu Xu, but to prevent Li Zhi from becoming the prince.

If he cannot be the prince of the Tang Dynasty, then among the remaining princes, obviously only Li Zhi can.

In this way, won’t the gears of history be back on track by then?

Have you really become a passerby?

"I haven't thought about it yet, but there must be a way." Zhao Chen gave a specious answer.

The emperor and Empress Changsun were confused for a while.

Queen Changsun thought that Zhao Chen had not yet understood the consequences of this matter, so she reminded him, "Xiang Fang believes that Yuan Tiangang's prophecy is not good for the Tang Dynasty. If you want to be the Tang Dynasty prince, you must deal with Wu Xu, otherwise …”

"Your Majesty is now in his prime, why are you in such a hurry to confer the crown prince so early?" Zhao Chen interrupted Empress Changsun with a smile.

The emperor was slightly startled.

Why was he in such a hurry to crown the prince?

Of course he was prepared to enjoy it with peace of mind.

After a lifetime of fighting, you can’t enjoy yourself anymore?

In the past, he had no chance and no prince to reassure him, but it was different now.

Everyone knows Zhao Chen's ability. With Zhao Chen here, Datang will only be better than it is now.

In this case, why is Li Shimin working so hard?

Wouldn't it be nice to take Queen Changsun out of the city for a walk when you have nothing to do?

Why do you have to work so hard on this state affairs?

Of course, he couldn't say this to Zhao Chen.

Otherwise, Zhao Chen would definitely reject him directly.

"The Crown Prince is concerned with the country, so it is natural for me to say good morning early. Although I am still young, I have been feeling a little physically and mentally exhausted recently, so I hope you can help me handle some political affairs."

"If you only help as the King of Han, it won't sound good if word spreads."

"So I intend to make you the crown prince, but the matter of Wu Xu..." The emperor looked embarrassed.

"If my father is interested, there is no need to rush for a while. I think that my father can train the young slave. If possible, I can also teach him from the side..."

"Cultivating child slaves?"

"You let

Your Majesty passed on the position of Crown Prince to a young slave? "The emperor and Empress Changsun were both stunned.

The position of the prince is not a carrot on the street, and can be thrown to whomever you want.

Why did Zhao Chen think about letting the emperor train Li Zhi?

He also said that Zhao Chen himself could help train him.

"What I mean is that if Zhinu is good at learning, we can let him become the prince of the Tang Dynasty..."

"Are you determined to kill Wu Xu without taking action?" The emperor's face looked gloomy.

For a woman, you don’t even want to be the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty?

This is truly a lack of ambition!

"I just feel that no matter what, I shouldn't do anything to an innocent woman." Zhao Chen said.

"Innocent, if we, the Tang Dynasty, do not win this battle of Gaochang, thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will die because of that martial arts."

"Countless people of the Tang Dynasty will die under the iron heel of Tubo. Do you think she is innocent?" The emperor was instantly unhappy.

Wu Xudanfan successfully kidnapped Zhao Chen and joined forces with Tubo to deal with the Tang Dynasty.

How could the Tang Dynasty be as peaceful as it is today?

In the eyes of the emperor, Wu Xu was never innocent.

"If you didn't send her to Gaochang in the first place, why would anything happen later?" Zhao Chen asked.

"You!" The emperor was instantly angry.

Staring at Zhao Chen with wide eyes.

Xin Dao said that he did all this just so that you, Zhao Chen, could become the prince?

Why is it now that I'm blaming myself?

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Let's put this matter aside for now. Chen'er, you are tired too. Go and rest early. The maids have already prepared a bed for you." Empress Changsun stopped the emperor who was about to run away.

He asked Zhao Chen to rest first.

Zhao Chen stood up, held hands with the two of them, then turned around and left.

open.

The emperor stared at Zhao Chen's back so hard that his teeth almost broke. "Mr. Guanyin, I feel more and more that this boy Zhao Chen is becoming more arrogant and domineering."

"Your Majesty, Chen'er has returned from great service this time. Your Majesty, you want to make him the crown prince. How can ordinary people accept such a reward?"

"If Chen'er doesn't anger His Majesty, won't all the officials want to respect him in the future?"

"When the time comes, will the Tang Dynasty listen to His Majesty or Chen'er?"

"Chen'er is acting like this just to give His Majesty a chance to deal with him."

"For example, if you do not hesitate to offend His Majesty for the sake of a woman, all your achievements will be wiped out."

"You said, he did it on purpose?" The emperor was stunned.

Queen Changsun smiled and said nothing.

The emperor sat on the chair, thinking about what Zhao Chen had just said.

Although I really want to hand over the Tang Dynasty to Zhao Chen, can I really delegate power completely without any scruples?

If Zhao Chen makes reforms in the future and he, the emperor, does not agree, who will he listen to?

Will the court officials be divided into the emperor faction and the prince faction?

There is disharmony between civil and military forces, and internal and external jealousy.

Thinking of this, a ball of cold sweat broke out on the emperor's back.

He found that he thought things were too good.

That night, news came from the palace that Zhao Chen, the king of Han Dynasty, had disobeyed the emperor's order and tried to protect Wu Xu, which made the emperor furious.

So the emperor ordered that the King of Han be deprived of all his merits and punished to stay at home and meditate for a month.

As soon as the news came, everyone felt incredible.

Yesterday, the emperor and the empress personally led hundreds of officials out of the city for twenty miles to welcome the return of the Han Dynasty. Why did such a thing happen that night?

Did the King of Han make the Emperor so angry that he almost died?

For a time, there was a lot of discussion inside and outside the court.
