Chapter 660: The Difficulties of the Great Chu Emperor

[No wonder in the story, Cui Wen found Shen Ping and helped him return to the capital to pass the imperial examination and later held a high position.]

[If being the top scholar was a result of his own talent, then being in a high position may not be the case.]

[Yes, it is a bit strange that a righteous person like Shen Ping would appear next to a person like the Third Prince.]

As for Lu Xingwan, his mind began to run wild with thoughts about Shen Ping.

While listening to what she said, the Emperor of Great Chu fell into deep thought.

Everyone, including the Crown Prince, was naturally shocked by Shen Fangcai's words.

They used to think that Shen Ping looked like a man of good character and would not do anything to frame Lord Rong, but they suspected that someone was deliberately using him and putting false evidence into his hands.

But he didn't expect that this person was actually his mother.

If Shen Ping was deceived by his mother in the past, then he has misunderstood Lord Rong.

That may not be the case for his mother.

How can a woman who has stayed in the countryside for nearly twenty years for the sake of her children be a simple person?

Perhaps she had thought that Cui Wen was really useless and wanted to leave some bloodline for him.

"Your mother..." The Great Chu Emperor opened his mouth, wanting to ask about Shen Ping's mother, but he didn't know where to start. Perhaps Shen Ping didn't know as much about these things as Shen Yu.

Just at this moment, Meng Quande, who had just instructed the young eunuch to go to Changqiu Palace to issue an edict, came back in a hurry.

The Great Chu Emperor waved his hand at him and said, "Send someone to the Minister of Personnel's Mansion to call Shen Yuyuan to me."

When Shen Yuyuan's younger sister disappeared from the capital, all the noble families in the capital knew about it. After all, Shen Yuyuan had been looking for her for a long time.

But later, Shen Yuyuan seemed to have suddenly given up overnight and never looked for his sister again.

At that time I thought he had given up, but now I think that maybe he gave up because he knew his nephew's biological father. However, I still have to ask about these things to know.

The Great Chu Emperor Tong Wanwan has also learned a lot. Since he has chosen to appoint Shen Yuyuan, he must trust him, especially in official affairs.

Moreover, in the past, Shen Yuyuan and Cui Wen did not get along well in the court, perhaps it was not just because of the court affairs.

Meng Quande was slightly stunned after hearing what His Majesty said, but he did not dare to hesitate and walked out quickly.

There are quite a few things happening inside and outside the palace today.

Lord Shen Ping had just entered the palace, and His Majesty wanted to invite Lord Shen Yuyuan in. Meng Quande had also heard about the rumors from the outside world.

I guess in my mind that this might be related to this matter.

At this time, Lu Xingwan was daydreaming when she suddenly thought of a key person. She looked at Shen Ping who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Has your mother ever met Bai Ling who is beside the Sixth Princess?"

This was just her guess.

If it was Mrs. Shen who wanted to do something for Cui Wen, perhaps it could be understood.

Someone who can raise a child alone might be a love-minded person.

She must have wanted to hide the child. Otherwise, with the influence of the Shen family in the capital, if she had brought Shen Ping back to the capital early, the education he received would have been far different.

In the storybook, he was not so lucky that he could enter Yongchang Academy to study.

Shen Ping looked up at the little princess in front of him and realized that this was the Ninth Princess whom His Majesty valued.

He raised his head and glanced at the Emperor of Great Chu in front of him, and saw that there was no surprise on his face, and this time he was looking at him, as if waiting for his answer.

He opened his mouth, but because of the bitterness in his mouth, the words that were about to come out did not come out.

Finally, he nodded, indicating his approval.

After hearing this, Lu Xingwan turned to look at the Great Chu Emperor standing beside him and said, "It seems that Bai Ling is quite powerful. The person that Cui Wen left for her is indeed quite capable. She can even reach into the palace of Yuefeng Kingdom."

The evidence to frame Lord Rong was found in the royal palace of Yuefeng Kingdom.

[It seems that whether it is Cui Wen or the fifth prince who came later, they all want to overthrow their father's empire! ]

[Why bother? Is power and status so important? ]

[Isn't it good to be a leisurely prince, with money to spend and no work to do? ]

It was indeed difficult for Lu Xingwan to understand their thoughts, including when she was reading the storybooks in the past, she also could not understand what the third prince did.

Is power so important?

[Look, my father is not that comfortable when he becomes the emperor, right?]

[You can’t do this or go there all day. ]

The Emperor of Great Chu looked at Wanwan with his eyes full of emotion. Finally, someone could understand his difficulties.

Recently, he has been increasingly thinking about passing the throne to the crown prince so that he can relax.

But there is no such precedent...

Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan suddenly looked at the prince beside him. He didn't say a word during the whole process, and seemed to be really shocked by Shen Ping's words.

[The throne they were fighting for was something the Crown Prince had never wanted before.]

[And the prince brother even wanted to give the crown prince position to the second brother! ]

[My second brother also misses his brother, the Crown Prince.]

[Speaking of which, this kind of brotherly love is really rare in the royal family. I hope that the Crown Prince and the second brother can live in harmony and peace for the rest of their lives.]

Just as Lu Xingwan was lost in thought, the prince who had been standing in silence suddenly spoke up and bowed to the Great Chu Emperor in front of him: "Father, let me leave Shen Ping's matter to you. I want to go to Changqiu Palace."

Just as the emperor and Wanwan said just now, the fifth prince still has a group of people left behind by Bai Ling in his hands. These people must be found and executed.

Otherwise, who knows what kind of bloody storm will break out in this palace in the future.

Although he is kind, he also knows that we must remove the weeds at their roots.

Now that the court has been stabilized, he will never allow any unexpected situations to happen.

The Great Chu Emperor knew his son well. Looking at his current appearance, he naturally knew what he was thinking. He nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, go meet them before they leave the palace."

Lu Xingwan raised his eyebrows.

[Now, there is a tacit understanding between my father and my brother, the crown prince. ]

[That's great! This time, there was no conflict between father and the prince over politics, and father did not doubt the prince's loyalty.]

【Now, the father and son are like one, trusting each other and handling government affairs together.】

【very nice.】
