Liu Xiang and him are not only monarchs and ministers, but also good friends for many years. Emperor Cheng Ming shouldn't have questioned him, but his own sons may harm him, let alone unrelated subjects.

In recent years, he has attached great importance to Liu Xiang everywhere, not to mention raising his appetite.

Thinking of the power held in Liu Xiang's hands, Emperor Cheng Ming was suddenly startled that it had reached such a severe situation.

As soon as the seeds of doubt emerge, more and more things are wrong.

Emperor Cheng Ming was deeply afraid, he didn't believe it anymore, Prime Minister Liu didn't have the slightest idea, otherwise what would he do to contact Luo Ting.

The other party has now grasped some discourse power in the court, and Emperor Cheng Ming is not a magnanimous person, so it is inevitable to take back his power.

Taking this opportunity, it was just to test whether Liu Xiang is loyal or not. If there is any disagreement, he should get rid of it in time.

So Emperor Cheng Ming suppressed his anger towards Luo Ting and pretended that he hadn't found anything. His condition seemed to be getting worse. On the other hand, he sent secret guards to the prime minister's mansion to investigate.

Luo Ting still didn't realize it, seeing Emperor Cheng Ming's pale face, and hearing the imperial doctor say that he often fell into a coma, he was immersed in his own beautiful fantasy, the joy in his eyes could hardly be suppressed, and he just waited for Emperor Cheng Ming to die.

He also wrote a letter to Prime Minister Liu, saying that Emperor Cheng Ming's order is not long, and the plan can be accelerated.

Prime Minister Liu was overjoyed. With the help of Luo Ting, an idiot, he could justify his claim to the throne.

Emperor Cheng Ming clenched his fists and couldn't open his eyes to look at Luo Ting. He was afraid that he couldn't help but jump up and strangle Luo Ting to death. He exhausted all his strength to suppress the resentment. He wanted to see, How far is this unfilial son going to go?

The atmosphere in the court hall gradually became more subtle. Emperor Cheng Ming didn't go to the court, and he didn't even have a person in charge. It was inevitable that people's hearts would be turbulent. You can't watch Emperor Cheng Ming lying ill in bed. Let the prime minister handle the matter.

To put it bluntly, with Emperor Cheng Ming's weak appearance, what if there is something good or bad, the country cannot be separated from the king for a day, and it is serious to establish a prince as soon as possible, and let the prince supervise the country on his behalf.

So someone went to persuade Emperor Cheng Ming, and many civil servants were Prime Minister Liu's disciples, and they supported the third prince more faintly in their words.

Emperor Cheng Ming coughed twice, and said with a sneer, "I don't know what's so great about my son that you can speak for him."

The censor who was kneeling in front of him lowered his head, "Your Majesty, the third prince is intelligent, filial and humble. The national teacher once said that the third prince is a blessed person. If the third prince is established as the prince, it will definitely bring great benefits to our court." Auspicious omen."

"What's more, the third prince is about to marry the prime minister's daughter-in-law. Only a woman with such a noble family can be regarded as the mother of a country in the future."

"Even if your majesty is still in good health, you should plan for the country and the people as soon as possible. I know that your majesty loves the seventh prince more.

But the seventh prince's mother's family is weak, and they are too immature in their lives, far less calm and magnanimous than the third prince. "

Emperor Cheng Ming looked over coldly, even if he was pretending to be sick, he would be angry now.

"You go down."

Now he can't hear any good things about Luo Ting. The more he talks about Luo Ting, the more he can't understand Luo Ting.

If he hadn't wanted to eradicate the forces behind Prime Minister Liu, he wouldn't have tolerated Luo Ting's existence.

And Luo Ting was completely unaware of the crisis, and was busy wooing everyone in the palace and the ministers in the court.

He didn't need to make a sound at all, someone would put pressure on Emperor Cheng Ming, a person who was about to die of illness, could it be possible that he still wanted to occupy the throne, there was no reason for that.

Regardless of the fact that Emperor Cheng Ming is still recuperating, today the Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of Rites will come to persuade Emperor Cheng Ming one after another. The implication is that Emperor Cheng Ming does not care about the country and the country, and is reluctant to delegate power. He is not dead yet, he is just reluctant to give up his power.

However, Emperor Cheng Ming had to admit that it was indeed time to choose the next heir at this age.

But it's absolutely impossible to be Luo Ting. Emperor Cheng Ming is still more inclined to choose Luo Ning, at least this son doesn't have that much in mind, he has no other reason, anyway, he wants to feel comfortable.

Emperor Cheng Ming tried his best to resist the crowd's opinions, but Luo Ning's name was going to be written on the imperial decree. Before the decree was read out, Luo Ting tried every means to intercept it. Looking at the words above, Luo Ting felt that it was extremely dazzling. Scarlet, he knew that this old man was very eccentric, he was obviously the one that everyone expected, and the old man insisted on making Luo Ning the crown prince.

Is there anything he can't compare to Luo Ning? Isn't it because Luo Ning has a vicious mother.

Luo Ting gritted his teeth, and tightly grasped the silk cloth of the imperial decree. Fortunately, he always went to visit recently, showing a filial piety.

It's a pity that he still can't get a good result from the old thing. If that's the case, then don't blame him for being cruel.

A cold light flashed in Luo Ting's eyes, thinking that Emperor Cheng Ming's body was getting weaker and there was nothing to worry about, so he asked people to increase the amount of poison in the tonic, so that Emperor Cheng Ming could die of illness in bed within a month.

He was fascinated by anger and ambition, and his sanity tended to be crazy. Many details were ignored, and he never thought about why he could easily see the imperial decree.

Luo Ting prepared the liquid medicine that he had prepared a long time ago, and dripped it on the ink of the imperial decree. The drop of black ink instantly melted into nothingness, and Luo Ting added his name on it.

When the last stroke was completed, he finally felt relieved, with a smug smile on his face, he closed his eyes happily, and stroked carefully. After a while, he will be the most honorable person in Rong Dynasty, and he doesn't have to suffer any more. Wronged, all those who bully him will suffer the consequences.

Satisfied, Luo Ting had someone issue the imperial decree, enjoying the peace of imminent victory. When the decree was read out, he was the serious crown prince. Even if there were doubts in the court, Prime Minister Liu would help him suppress it.

Luo Ting changed into a golden python robe and wore a jade crown with pearls on his head. It can be said that he was proud of the spring breeze. He took the imperial decree to see Emperor Chengming.

At this time, Emperor Cheng Ming was still in a coma, and when he noticed the malicious gaze around him, he suddenly opened his eyes and asked displeasedly, "What are you doing here?"

Luo Ting chuckled, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "I miss my father, come and see me."

He slowly unfolded the silk cloth of the imperial decree, "Father, look, my son is now the crown prince, are you happy?"

"I will definitely not let you down, I will help you take care of the court one by one, and you can rest assured to recover from your illness. After working hard for most of your life, let me work hard for you."

Emperor Cheng Ming's eyes widened in cooperation, full of surprise, his wrinkled face trembled, and he pointed at Luo Ting in disbelief: "Why...how could it be you?"

Luo Ting smiled and said with an innocent face: "Why are you not a minister? This is an imperial edict issued by the emperor himself. Is the emperor seriously ill in bed and sleepy? The medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor really doesn't work. Ah, I didn't expect that Royal Father has become so serious, I'm really worried."

Emperor Cheng Ming looked over angrily, and said with difficulty, "Prince, the prince is Ning'er, not you."

Luo Ting snorted coldly, "Why do you have to think about the Seventh Brother all the time? My son is right in front of you, but you can't see it. You are a good father for the Seventh Brother. You always pave the way for the Seventh Brother." After the road is over, the Seventh Emperor Shu Tantan can get the best of everything, and the son-in-law can only make humble calculations, which is really unfair, have you ever thought about how painful I am."

"No matter what the father thinks now. Now, the crown prince is me, and I am the next monarch of the Rong Dynasty. Father should see the situation clearly."

Even though Emperor Cheng Ming knew about Luo Ting's wolf ambition, when he saw Luo Ting's arrogance with his own eyes, he was still so angry that he was about to vomit blood. He gritted his teeth and cursed: "Things that are not as good as animals! Get out!"

Luo Ting flicked his sleeves, "Father can't even speak clearly, you should take it easy, my son is too busy next time, I probably don't have time to visit Father again, if you really have the strength, then You can scold me whatever you want, anyway, I don’t care anymore.”

Emperor Cheng Ming's power has been emptied by him, and even Emperor Cheng Ming's former imperial eunuch has been bought by him.

After all, Emperor Cheng Ming would not live long after seeing it. Of course, those servants wanted to take advantage of the wind and come to join him as the crown prince. He had nothing to worry about. What he liked most in this meeting was to admire the expression of Emperor Cheng Ming's collapse.

So what if he didn't like his son, he wasn't the one who won in the end.

Luo Ting watched Emperor Cheng Ming pass out with satisfaction, without hiding the smile on his face, and told the imperial eunuch, "Eunuch He, father is seriously ill and doesn't like to see others, you should know what to do."

The imperial eunuch bowed his waist, "Your Highness, this old slave will definitely not allow anyone to disturb His Majesty's rest."

Many eunuchs stood guard outside Zhu Hong's gate, preventing anyone from approaching him, which was equivalent to putting Emperor Cheng Ming under house arrest.

Luo Ting bent his lips, old things still have today!

The imperial eunuch looked at Luo Ting's back and shook his head. This third prince might be completely useless. It's no wonder that the Holy Majesty no longer thinks of father and son's love for this way of seeking death.

Luo Ting happened to bump into Luo Ning who was going to visit on the road, and now Luo Ting didn't avoid it anymore.

On the contrary, he blocked Luo Ning's way confidently, with an undisguised contempt on his face, "Brother Huang, why don't you say hello when you see Brother Huang? Do you still hold a grudge?"

Luo Ning was speechless, once this person gained power, his desperation looks really hot, and his eyes almost turned up to the sky.

Luo Ting showed off his luxurious body, "Oh, by the way, you should call my highness the prince from now on. Seeing the position of prince fall on me, my brother must be very sad."

"But there's no other way. Although father usually dotes on you, when it comes to critical moments, he knows who is reliable and who is more capable."

Luo Ning didn't want to hear him show off, so he said amusedly: "Brother Huang, are you sure that is the decree promulgated by the emperor himself?"

Luo Ting's face darkened. He looked at Luo Ning's face, which was dazzling. He had reached this point. Why didn't the other party jump in resentment as he expected? Luo Ning was so calm, which made Luo Ting feel no sense of accomplishment.
