Chapter 520 The unlucky son has too much killing power (1 update)
Dequan saw that Lu Chengtian's face was getting darker and darker, and his expression was getting more and more depressed. He didn't know what to say. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was really good at making trouble.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is still young and needs your guidance."
Lu Chengtian had a headache when he mentioned this. "I think if I teach him personally, I may shorten my life by ten years."
He only taught the unlucky son for one day, and he made so many things happen to him!
Either a general election or a general mobilization of the concubines in the harem. If this continues, God knows what else this kid can do?
Dequan's mouth twitched. He really understood the extent of the prince's trouble-making. "Otherwise, let the tutor enter the palace and continue to teach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Lu Chengtian glanced at him indifferently. "You are really too smart. I can't stand it. You let the prince harm others, right?"
Dequan could only play dumb. There was no other way. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's lethality was really too great.
"Have you forgotten that last time I asked the tutor to teach, and even summoned the great scholars of the time to the palace to give lectures, but what was the result?"
Dequan's memory returned. It seemed that these great scholars were stumped by the questions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
It seemed that the Crown Prince asked the same questions at the time, but no great scholar of the time could answer them. They seemed to be about agriculture, people's livelihood, and grain production.
In the end, these great scholars gave up their books and devoted themselves to farming. They began to think about how to increase food production and how to prevent the people from starving to death.
The prince's tutor almost resigned and retired to study how to farm.
At that time, it really shocked the court and the public. The emperor naturally did not agree with the tutor's resignation. However, the tutor's current state is almost the same as resigning.
He opened a piece of land in his mansion and was obsessed with farming all day long.
The prince is so destructive that the previous batch of great scholars were still immersed in the study of agronomy. If another batch of great scholars were to teach the prince, it is estimated that another batch of officials in the court will resign and study other things.
Thinking of this, Dequan shut up.
This problem is really difficult to solve. The emperor cannot teach in person, and neither can the ministers. What should we do?
Who knew that Lu Chengtian smiled and said, "The prince does need a lot of teaching, but he needs the right person to teach him."
Dequan didn't understand yet, and then he received an imperial edict. After seeing the content of the imperial edict, Dequan's mouth twitched. The emperor is the emperor, and only he can think of this method.
That afternoon, the Duke of Zhenguo, who had been silent for a long time, received an imperial edict.
At that time, the Duke of Zhenguo was fishing in his mansion. Yes, the Duke, who had been a soldier all his life, fell in love with fishing after leaving the battlefield and the barracks.
Not only him, but the son of the Duke of Zhenguo, Shen Hong, also likes fishing very much.
There is no way. As a relative of the emperor and holding a large number of troops, the emperor will naturally be wary of him.
After talking with the prince and learning that his grandson had no intention of taking the throne, the Duke of Zhenguo and his family immediately handed in their military orders and gave up their military power.
The Duke of Zhenguo is just a title, without any real power. He only needs to attend the morning court every now and then.
General Shen Hong also gradually became silent. If it weren't for the last time when the great army attacked and was eyeing him covetously, the prince personally appointed him as the eldest prince's deputy general, and he would never have appeared in front of the emperor to attract attention.
After the army won, Shen Hong did not remain silent to regain the military power, but remained silent again, and it was better not to attract attention.
Originally, as the prince's in-laws, the Shen family was definitely the most eye-catching in the capital.
But now, the Shen family is too low-key. They don't make friends with important officials in the court. They have handed over all military power and are in a state of retirement. The only lively person is the 10-year-old Shen Changan.
The Shen family took the initiative to keep a low profile and faded out of the power center of the capital. The emperor did not do anything against the Shen family.
The two sides seemed to have reached some kind of unspoken understanding. The reason
why the ministers in the court are so pessimistic about the prince is also related to the current attitude of the emperor towards the Shen family.
I thought that the Shen family would remain silent like this, even the Duke of Zhenguo himself thought so, and he thought there was nothing wrong with it.
He has been a soldier all his life. If he can keep his family safe in his later years, stay away from the court struggles, and live a stable life in this capital, it would be a good ending.
Of course, if his little grandson needs his grandfather's support, he will rush into battle for him without hesitation, because this is his daughter's only child.
However, although the prince is young, he already has his own ideas, and they are very firm.
His grandfather naturally has to cooperate with him and satisfy him.
He has already thought about it. When his son is more stable, he will pass the position of Duke of Zhenguo to him, and he can go out to tour the beautiful mountains and rivers of Daliang.
However, who knew that the emperor was still thinking about their Shen family.
A piece of imperial edict, like dropping a drop of cold water into a boiling oil pan, instantly awakened all the high-ranking officials of the aristocratic families in the capital.
Everyone was very puzzled. Didn't the emperor always envy the Shen family?
Before, he wanted to deal with the Shen family, but later the Shen family was sensible and took the initiative to hand over the military power. The Duke of Zhenguo was directly idle at home. The Duke of Zhenguo was just a title. General Shen Hong also became quiet and weakened his presence. The emperor did not target the Shen family.
But even so, the emperor just did not target them. He still did not make any arrangements for the Shen family, let alone reuse them.
How much time has it taken?
Only a year?
The emperor actually let the Duke of Zhenguo teach the prince?
What kind of magical change is this?
Could it be that the emperor no longer hates the Shen family?
He is also very willing to let the prince get close to the Shen family?
But this is obviously wrong. Hasn't the emperor always hated the powerful relatives of the emperor?
The interference of relatives in politics has always been the most intolerable thing for the royal family.
Why did the emperor suddenly change his mind?
Or did the emperor have other ideas?
Is the Shen family really going to revive? |
A group of old foxes were confused by this imperial edict, and they speculated on the deep meaning of it, trying to figure out the emperor's true thoughts, so as to make plans and gain more benefits for their families.
However, the emperor's stroke of genius was too confusing, and many ministers couldn't figure it out, so they could only send letters to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion.
If they couldn't figure it out, they could only go to the Duke of Zhenguo to ask around and see if they could get any useful information.
Otherwise, there was no information at all, and this imperial edict was really too difficult to guess.
God knows the Duke of Zhenguo himself was also confused.
The ministers who came to test thought that it would take some effort to get some truth from the Duke of Zhenguo.
Before coming, they thought deeply for a long time, and prepared a script in their mind, simulating various reactions of the Duke of Zhen Guo to their questions in advance, and they prepared corresponding answers for different reactions.
It can be said that no one dared to underestimate this veteran who had fought on the battlefield all his life. However
, when they arrived at the Duke of Zhen Guo Mansion and saw the Duke of Zhen Guo, they found that things were completely different from what they thought!
