Cheng Kang told everyone in the Cheng family not to have too much contact with outsiders in the near future, as the capital was going to be in chaos and the second prince was going to rebel.
Everyone in the Cheng family was in panic.
The emperor is in good health, and the crown prince is also in good health. Why would the second prince rebel at this time?
Can't wait?
Cheng Yue was also confused.
Shanshui did not tell her that the second prince was going to rebel.
What exactly are these two, mother and son, up to?
…
September 23, palace examination.
The results came out in the afternoon. Cheng Jinxing was the top scorer in the civil examination, while Cheng Jinxing only got the third place in the military examination. However, this result was also very good for the Cheng family.
The top scorer in the military subject was Ji Minghao, and He Zheng also made it into the second class, ranking fourteenth. These were very good results, and Boss He was so generous that he gave gifts to the Ji and Cheng families.
Before the top scholar of this year's imperial examination was paraded through the streets, the emperor suddenly fell seriously ill.
At this time, the troops of the Duke of Zhenguo suddenly returned from Liaodong and Xiqiang, and stationed in the east and west of the capital respectively.
The general of the northern prairie tribe suddenly came to visit with his men and was already on the way.
The situation in the capital suddenly changed.
People don't seem to care at all who is the top scorer.
In October, the general from the prairie arrived. The emperor had not attended the morning court for seven days, so he ordered the crown prince to handle state affairs and receive the general from the prairie.
October 2nd.
The second prince led a group of court officials and questioned the crown prince directly in the court. He asked many tricky questions, which were questions that all the court officials knew.
The prince did not answer.
The second prince pointed out that the prince was an imposter from the countryside.
There was an uproar in the court, and the grassland general was watching the show and adding fuel to the fire.
The party of the Duke of Zhenguo naturally protected the prince.
The second prince presented various evidences and summoned various witnesses.
The two sides argued fiercely, but neither side won.
The Duke of Zhenguo agreed to cooperate with the Second Prince mainly because he wanted to force the emperor to abdicate and make him die early, so that the fake Shanshui they found could successfully ascend the throne and become a puppet. Therefore, naturally, he would not really cooperate with the Second Prince.
The Second Prince knew this very well, so he had no intention of really cooperating with the Duke of Zhenguo. He just needed the troops under the Duke of Zhenguo.
Mo Zheng looked at the chaotic court calmly and sneered in his heart, "Use your ultimate moves, use all your ultimate moves, otherwise, how can I catch you all in one fell swoop and completely destroy you?"
"Your Highness, this is bad, this is bad! The palace gate has been breached! Two groups of people are rushing in!"
Following the young eunuch's report, the court was in complete chaos.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
At this turbulent moment, a particularly treacherous and loud voice rang out.
The emperor appeared wearing the dragon robe he wore for court.
"Shut up, everyone!"
The emperor sat on the dragon throne, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
The Duke of Zhenguo and the Second Prince felt a pang in their hearts when they saw the Emperor's mental state, and they couldn't help but look at the Crown Prince standing aside.
The prince smiled at them and mouthed, "Idiots!"
The Duke of Zhenguo was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot, and the second prince was also very aggrieved.
Both of them understood that the one here was the real prince, not the fake one.
They were both fooled!
"Xiao Qingjia, please don't vomit blood and die! I still have many accounts to settle with you!"
The emperor looked at the Duke of Zhenguo coldly.
"Father, your son..."
"Shut up!"
The second prince wanted to defend himself before the emperor got angry, but was coldly interrupted by the emperor.
