No matter what, it is true that Lu Qiyuan controls Emperor Rui.
After the court dispersed, Lu Qi’an and Le Tong parted ways and made the prince’s illness cured, and the national teacher no longer had to follow him.
Lu Qi’an saw Lu Qiyuan chasing Le Tong, staring in that direction with fierce eyes.
His appearance was shocked by the minister who came to find him at this time.
“Your Highness?”
Lu Qian withdrew his gaze and saluted slightly to the three old ministers.
The three who came here are all very old. I can’t hear any falsehood if they congratulate Lu Qi’an on his recovery from the serious illness.
Zhang Xin, the Minister of Rites, looked around and confirmed that there were no outsiders around him, and then he said heartfelt words: “Your Highness has seen it just now. The Second Highness has been uneasy for a while. I don’t know what method he used to coax His Majesty to listen to him in everything. You have said so much, but you are not as good as him. The old minister wants to remind His Highness that the direction of the court has changed. You must be careful.”
Lu Qi’an sighed and said, “It’s okay to be careful? If I don’t die, how can he replace him? He was poisoned as soon as he returned to Beijing. I am a hero who just wiped out the cult. Now who has the courage to get rid of me? All of them are important officials who have worked hard and made great contributions. Can you still not understand the second brother’s thoughts?”
It’s useless for several old ministers to understand. Compared with the power in the court, the second prince Lu Qiyuan is the most powerful.
Crown Prince Lu Qian was ill in his early years and had no energy to support his own forces. With their few old guys who were clear-eyed and clear-minded, they could not beat the second prince.
“The throne is good. I am not suitable to be the crown prince. It is nothing to change to a more suitable person to take the throne, but the second brother cannot.” Lu Qi’an suddenly became serious. “Some things are just speculations. Don’t worry about them first. When I find evidence, you will know what the second brother has done.”
“I’m afraid that the second prince will not give you this opportunity.”
“It’s good that the crown prince has his own idea, but you have to hurry up. I don’t know why. Your Majesty often talks about the second prince and the national master recently. There are recent rumors in the palace, what do you say? Your Majesty plans to betroth the national master to the second prince… The national master is the person His Majesty trusts very much. First, he noticed the revival of the cult, and now he is a great hero to eliminate the cult. The national master’s position in the hearts of the people is getting higher and higher. If the national master is really allowed to marry the second prince at this time, I’m afraid that the crown prince’s position will really be replaced.”
Lu Qian was not worried about the replacement of the position of crown prince. Instead, he was even more curious about the fact that Emperor Rui betrothed the national teacher to the second prince, no one objected to the ministers in the court?
“Now most of the people in the court are the Second Highness, so they naturally will not refute the Second Highness’s words. Your Majesty was coaxed by the Second Highness and obeyed everything. A small number of people think this matter is inappropriate because they are weak and can’t argue.”
“A few of us old people have considered it. If Your Majesty really issued an order, this matter… the national master is afraid he will really marry the Second Highness…”
The person who has won the most trust from the National Master, Emperor Rui, is equivalent to telling the world that the second prince Lu, the second prince.Qi Yuan is the candidate for the crown prince whom Emperor Rui likes.
Afterwards, Crown Prince Lu Qi’an was deposed and the crown prince replaced him, and everything was justified.
Lu Qi’an thought to himself that he was too righteous and gentleman. The biggest obstacle to marrying Le Tong was actually nothing. As long as he used some thought to form cliques and let most of the people in the court stand on his side.
As for Emperor Rui…
Depending on how favored he is, he doesn’t have to control Emperor Rui like his second brother, just say a few words…
But it seems that it’s too late to form a clique now.
Forget it…
Let’s do it according to the original plan.
After saying goodbye to the old minister, Lu Qian returned to his East Palace.
The prince needs to get married before leaving the palace to open his own palace. The fourth prince of the Dayuan Dynasty has not yet married and now lives in the palace.
The prince lives alone in the Eastern Palace, and the other princes cannot be compared with him, the crown prince, and they all live in the Western Palace.
Lu Qi’an called his personal guards to ask them to strengthen their vigilance inside and outside the palace: “There has not been peace recently. I found that anyone who is suspicious will take it down directly, no matter what his identity is. Now, I am still the prince and I am not afraid of offending others.”
Then he added: “The Third Highness and the head of the Xi family come, don’t stop him.”
Zou Da and other personal guards followed Lu Qi’an to Wushan and Miaojiang. They were very clear about the fact that Xi Songran and his prince became accomplices. “Also, today I saw that the person standing next to my father was not Eunuch Zhuang, so I went to inquire.” “Yes.” “Your Highness, why didn’t the national master come back?” Zou Dagang wanted to ask when he saw Lu Qian coming back alone.
“I shouldn’t come these days, so I should avoid suspicion.” Lu Qi’an said, “If she comes, she will just send it to my room.”
He said that he won’t come these days, but in the evening, Le Tong climbed over the wall and entered the East Palace.
As soon as she jumped down, she ran into the guard who was patrolling the night.
Le Tong squatted there awkwardly without moving. After a moment of froze, the guard turned around and pretended that he didn’t see it. He put the lantern in his hand on the ground for her to use, and then continued patrolling.
Le Tong entered the room with a familiarity, and after closing the door, she was hugged by Lu Qi’an.
“Didn’t you let you be obediently in Wuyun Tower these days? What should I do if he runs out in the middle of the night and sees him?” Lu Qian hugged Le Tong from behind and whispered in her ear.
“There are five people following the Wuyun Tower, from day to night, not planning to leave.” Le Tong smiled, “I am the person trained by my ancestors personally, so it is easy to avoid them.”
Lu Qi’an Mo calculated that the five people would monitor Wuyun Tower in full. It was not as easy as she said.
With a chuckling, Lu Qi’an teased and said, “I can’t wait to climb over the wall and meet my lover secretly after only a few hours?”
Le Tong made him serious and have serious business.
Originally, she planned to be obedientStaying in Wuyun Tower, but it was just dark tonight, she received a message from Xi Songran.
Xi Songran used a message to pass the message with a notes. Today, he noticed traces of magic in the capital. He chased after him and found something was wrong, so he gave up halfway.
The traces were too heavy, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to see them. He hid aside and observed them, and the casting was not interrupted until dusk.
Lu Qi’an asked, “Have you seen a suspicious person?”
Le Tong shook his head, “No.”
There is a downtown area, and there is still a large number of people coming and going at dusk, so I can’t tell it.
Xi Songran suspected that someone deliberately made noises to test whether he was in Beijing.
It’s obvious who the prisoner is.
Lu Qiyuan was not worried that Le Tong would find out the clue, but was worried that Xi Songran would not leave.
Le Tong: “In the rumors about me released by Xi’s family, I am a shameless person who has no ability and has relied on means to steal the position of the national teacher. Even the people of Xi’s family think I’m incompetent, and outsiders probably think so.”
Lu Qiyuan and the monks he found were not worried that she would find something wrong with Ruidi. Xi Songran suddenly left and needed to pay special attention.
Lu Qian thought this was good, and Lu Qiyuan would not be too cautious, which would make it easier for them to find flaws.
I lost Jingzhou with carelessness… the fastest.
