Empress, you don't want to be thrown into limbo by your father, do you?

Under the darkness of night, a large boat moored quietly on the shore.

All kinds of laughter can be heard around, Yingying, Yanyan, rouge and gouache, weaving a beautiful night scene of indulgent flowers.

At this time, in the wing room of the building boat, there were some people who were anxious and looked up from time to time to observe the outside, with a look of restlessness.

Although he changed into casual clothes, it still didn't make him feel at ease.

Finally, the sound of footsteps came from outside, which also made the expressions of the people in the wing tense.

The door of the wing room was pushed open, and seeing someone coming finally made those who had been waiting heaved a sigh of relief.

"Zhang Xiang, you are finally here!"

The person who came here turned out to be the chief assistant of the current cabinet, Old Prime Minister Zhang!
And those who waited for a long time on the building boat should be fined to contemplate their mistakes behind closed doors and not allowed to leave the prince's mansion for half a step, the current prince, Li Cheng!
Two people with particularly sensitive identities would secretly have a private meeting outside at this time.

No matter what it is to talk about, once it gets out, it is enough to cause trouble.

"The crown prince is so restless, how can he plan big things in the future?"

The prime minister's face was indifferent, and he sat down unhurriedly, and at the same time, the accompanying people retreated directly with a wave of his hand.

In the wing room, only the prime minister and the prince were left sitting face to face.

"What Zhang Xiang said was that the students couldn't hold their breath, but now the emperor punishes the students to shut up and think about it for a whole year, and they can't hold this breath alone!"

After all, he is also the crown prince, the crown prince of a country, and even the eldest son of the late empress!
Now, those who have been fined can't even take a step outside the house, so what's the face of spreading the word?
Who would take this prince seriously?

"If you can't swallow it, you have to swallow it!"

The prime minister glared at him. Although he was just a frail scholar, at that moment, there seemed to be a huge deterrent force, which made the prince shrank his neck quickly.

After all, he is the head of all the officials, and he is also the prince and the prince. No matter how he looks at it, although Li Cheng is the prince, he still respects the prime minister very much.

"Students are not reconciled! Although the emperor did not directly abolish the lonely crown prince this time, but after a year of contemplation behind closed doors, what will the officials think?"

The crown prince looked sad. Tonight he left the mansion secretly, and now he pinned all his hopes on the prime minister.

Why?

The prime minister, a veteran of the three dynasties, is also the leader of the Qing School, and the prime minister arranged to bring him here secretly from the Prince's Mansion tonight.

All of this proves that the prime minister has not given up on him, and even has a good plan!

"King Shou will leave Beijing after the end of the year. What the prince needs to do now is to hide his strength and bide his time, and not to offend His Majesty anymore, otherwise the old minister will not be able to help the prince."

"Yes, yes, the students understand!"

"This time, His Majesty's Longyan was furious, and the prince also needs to consider the way forward as soon as possible. Although the old minister and King Shou pleaded for the prince for the time being, His Majesty did not go into it, but with His Majesty's character..."

The prime minister said with his brows tightly furrowed, and the prince's heart was hanging in the air.

He naturally understood his father's character, and he was a little anxious when he heard it, "Father is moody, and he never likes Gu, but he likes Gu's sixth brother very much. Fortunately, the sixth brother is going to Jiangnan to take up his post soon."

"Prince, you are confused!"

The prime minister snorted angrily!

The prince was taken aback for a moment, "The student doesn't understand."

"King Shou is indeed going to the south of the Yangtze River to take up his post, but today, His Majesty personally gave him a Shangfang sword, which can be cut first and played later! Your Majesty's favor for King Shou has never been eliminated. On the contrary, you have made several mistakes, Prince, and you have disappointed His Majesty. downright!"

Exaggeration?
No exaggeration at all.

As the prince listened, his face became very ugly.

"Father really gave the sixth younger brother Shang Fang the sword?"

"This is why the old minister said that you are confused, the prince! Since ancient times, there has never been brotherhood in the struggle for imperial power. If the prince doesn't think about it earlier, the old minister may really have to think about whether he has spent many years of hard work wrongly."

In the past dynasties, are there still few precedents of father and son turning against each other and brothers killing each other because of that dragon chair?

Let alone 30 years ago, how did Emperor Qianming sit on that dragon chair?
The prince is not stupid, he will understand after listening.

Then panicked, "Of course the students understand, but now they suffer from nothing."

"I also hope that Prime Minister Zhang will advise the students!"

In the court, who can the prince rely on?

The late queen's natal family is one of them, and the prime minister, the head of all officials, is the crown prince's biggest backer.

The prince is not stupid, and he also knows that he has the status of prince now, but in the eyes of his father, he has completely lost power. Although there are still a majority of people in the court who support him, but people's hearts are not old, who can guarantee that there will be no changes in the future?

"The prince is really willing to listen to the old minister's advice?"

The prime minister's face was serious, it was clear that there was a terrifying conspiracy, which caused the crown prince to be at odds with heaven and man for a while, but in the end he gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.

"What's Zhang Xiang's plan?"

The prime minister showed a childish smile, then opened his lips slightly, and soon the prince's pupils shrank rapidly, as if he had heard such an incredible and shocking secret!
His face was full of emotions, unbelievable, frightened and even excited!

In the end, the prince felt that the whole person was in a state of excitement, and he didn't know whether it was excitement or fear.

"This, can this really work?"

"Does the prince have any other options now?"

In a word, the prince shut up.

Yes!

He has no other choice, he might as well take a gamble!
And he felt that the chances of winning the bet were great. Why couldn't he do the fifteenth grade if others did it in the first grade?
With the assistance of the prime minister, and the support of his mother's stepmother's family...

Hope, very big!

"it is good!"

"Prince, remember, you have not left the Prince's mansion tonight, and you have never seen the old minister, and you will never remember what happened tonight when you see the old minister in the future."

After the prime minister explained lightly, he got up and left, leaving only the prince excited and excited.

Then someone appeared in front of him, and then quietly led him back to the Prince's Mansion.

Everything is invisible.

……

【Ding!The host successfully limped the prince and rewarded him with 10000 system points]

【Ding!Because the host secretly interferes and indirectly affects the trend of the world, there will be uncertain variables, and the host will be awarded the title of 'Hero']

Looking at the back of the prince leaving, the prime minister stood with his hands behind his back, with a playful smile on his lips.

In the next moment, the prime minister's face and body shape were changing, finally revealing his true face.

Correct!
It was not the prime minister himself who secretly met with the crown prince tonight.

But him!
Li Changshou!
"The exercises produced by the system are indeed seamless, far from being comparable to ordinary disguise techniques."

He met the prince with the face of the prime minister tonight, and his purpose was very simple, to plant a seed in the prince's heart, and this seed would take two or three years if it was slow, and it might take a year or so to take effect if it was fast.

"But why are there so few rewards?"

Looking at the two rewards given by the system, the first one is only 10000 points, which is dispensable.

But the second [Xiaoxiong] waited for him to finish watching, and his eyes lit up immediately!
[Xiaoxiong: A special title that can invisibly possess the ability to deceive people after being obtained. The effect on people with weak willpower is doubled, but the effect on people with strong willpower is weakened; at the same time, it will attract talents who also have ambitions and great ambitions. Appear beside the host, and it is easy to get the loyalty and followers of these people]

It seems that the explanation is very complicated, but in fact Li Changshou knows what changes this [Xiaoxiong] can bring to him.

It is equivalent to bringing your own mouthpiece and hypnosis, and it will be easier to coax others in the future.

The key is to attract talents, win their loyalty and follow?
Good stuff! Good stuff!
"System, I take back the evaluation just now, the reward is very good, next time you can try to reward more!"

【…】

The night is still very deep.

With a smile on the corner of Li Changshou's mouth, he disappeared into the night.

Tonight, his target is not only the prince, but bewitching the prince is not enough to make his plan succeed, so he has to go to several places.

……

The Duke of Qi.

Qi Guogong, who had already fallen asleep, hurriedly put on his coat and came out of the concubine's room.

"What about people?"

Seeing the housekeeper outside, he hurriedly asked in a low voice.

"Master, it's in your study."

The butler lowered his voice. As the butler of the Duke's mansion, he is also a person with good eyesight. The person who suddenly came to find Duke Qi tonight is not an ordinary person.

"Did anyone else see it?"

"Back to the master, there is only this old slave."

"Okay! If someone spreads the word..."

Duke Qi snorted coldly, and the butler shut up knowingly, and then carried the lantern in front, while Duke Qi walked all the way to the study in the backyard with a cloudy expression on his face.

At this time, there were already people waiting in the study for a long time. Seeing the figure, Qi Guogong's pupils shrank slightly, and he waved his hand to let the butler go down first.

Then he pushed open the door and entered the study alone, then turned around and closed the study door.

"His Royal Highness, why are you here?!"

It turned out that it was none other than Prince Li Cheng who secretly came to Duke Qi's mansion in the middle of the night.

But at this moment, his expression was excited and excited, and when he saw Qi Guogong, he took the initiative to stand up and stepped forward, "Uncle, I came to see you suddenly because of an emergency, and I want to ask for something!"

An uncle sounded, as if awakening Qi Guogong's memory, and then his face softened, and at the same time he stepped forward to help, "You child..."

"Uncle, Gu needs your help!"

Qi Guogong is the younger brother of the late queen, and the prince's uncle seems to put aside the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, and touch people's hearts with family affection.

Since the queen passed away, Duke Qi, as the late queen's natal family, rarely participated in government affairs in order to avoid suspicion these years.

He rarely walks with the prince frequently, but this does not mean that Qi Guogong will give up the prince, but there are some things that cannot be put on the bright side.

"Didn't His Majesty order you to contemplate behind closed doors for a year, and not to leave half a step during this period? You are sneaking out now in case His Majesty finds out..."

Duke Qi couldn't help feeling a headache, since his father passed away and he inherited the title of Duke, he has always kept a low profile.

But he couldn't drive the prince out, blame him, he helped the prince to sit in the study, sighed and asked: "What's going on?"

"You, why would you go to the land of fireworks, you are so confused!"

"Uncle, it's all lonely and confused for a while, but now the father is bewitched by the demon concubine and has already thought of abolishing the prince!"

"I've heard about this matter, but now His Majesty didn't abolish your prince, but just let you think about it behind closed doors?"

Qi Guogong has been half-retired, not because of his old age, but because of his great achievements, he took the initiative to keep a low profile, but it doesn't mean that things in the court are not clear.

The prince also sneered bitterly when he heard the words, "It's nice to say it behind closed doors, but it's just an excuse to appease the prime minister and others. After a year, the one who waits alone will end up being deposed!"

Duke Qi frowned. He didn't quite agree with the prince's guess, but he had to admit that with Emperor Ming's character, it was indeed possible to do so.

So I can only ask: "Why did you come to see me tonight?"

"Uncle, you can't stand still!"

"You want me to intercede for you?"

Qi Guogong was a little embarrassed. In fact, it is better to keep a low profile at his level, but it is not impossible to consider.

However, the prince directly shook his head, "Uncle misunderstood, even if you enter the palace to see the father, it is useless. Now the father is determined to abolish the position of the lonely prince, and going now will only add fuel to the flames."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I want my uncle to come out secretly and send a letter to Shannan Jiedu envoy!"

As soon as this remark came out, Qi Guogong's whole body was shocked suddenly, and then his pupils shrank rapidly, and he almost didn't wonder if he heard it wrong?

Shannan Jiedushi?
That is Duke Qi's in-laws!
Now Qi Guogong's concubine is the daughter of Shannan Jiedushi, and Shannan Jiedushi is a big official in the frontier, holding a heavy army!

And the most crucial point!
Shannan Jiedushi is one of the few Jiedushi closest to the capital among all Jiedushi!

He even has [-] soldiers and horses in his hands!
