Chapter 575 On the Little Prince's 100 Thoughts (1 update)

The Third Prince recalled the Little Prince's sharp actions just now, and suddenly had a bad guess.

"Could it be that what you just burned was the letter sent to you by your father?"

The Little Prince began to look out the window. Hmm, the red maple trees in the courtyard are really beautiful.

Seeing this, the Second Prince immediately came to the side of the Little Prince and was shocked. "I saw you burn several letters these days. Don't tell me that they were all written by your father?"

The Little Prince continued, "It should be, maybe, it seems so."

The Second Prince and the Third Prince looked at each other, feeling helpless. Could they not be so perfunctory!

Silently sympathize with the father who was sitting in the capital.

No matter who it is, if the emperor summons, they must be respectful. The emperor's words are golden, and what he says is the imperial edict.

No matter who it is, when seeing the imperial edict, whether willing or not, they must obey the edict immediately.

Even the princes are no exception.

But there happened to be a bold and presumptuous person. Not to mention obeying the edict, this person directly burned the letter! ! ! !

"Sixth brother, aren't you worried that you will be beaten when you go back?"

The second prince really didn't know what to say. Just thinking about the letters from his father, he knew that he must be very anxious, but the prince just burned them all!

What should he do?

The young prince looked innocent, "I've worked so hard and am so thin. If he dares to beat me, I will risk my life and let him die before his time."

The third prince's mouth twitched, "No, do you have to make such a big deal?"

He really couldn't imagine that if his father really beat him, he would kill the prince. What a mess it would be.

Burnt out is not enough to describe the situation his father would fall into.

The second prince stood up in shock, "So, you deliberately made yourself so thin to prevent your father from beating you after returning to Beijing?"

The young prince looked innocent, "Oh, that's not the case. I've been practicing martial arts quite hard recently and it's a bit exhausting."

The second prince had a blank expression, "Haha, believe it or not!"

The young prince shut up out of guilt.

The third prince frowned slightly, "Sixth brother, you are disturbing the emperor. Even if the emperor doesn't beat you, he can still put you in prison!"

The little prince didn't care, "Then I will escape from prison. How can a small prison hold me?"

As he spoke, he immediately picked up the chopsticks on the table and threw them casually. The whole chopstick was inserted into the wall, leaving only a small round hole.

The third prince stood up and clasped his fists, saying seriously, "I am rude. How can the prison hold you?"

There was no way, who made him a weak scholar who was powerless!

The second prince continued, "It's also possible that you will be confined to study."

The little prince leaned back and said, "That's great. I haven't been with Dahei and Gungun for a long time. This is a good opportunity for me to have some fun with them."

As for studying, if there is no one to give lectures, then who would know whether he has studied or not?

He would not be worried if there were people to give lectures, because he had accumulated rich experience in dealing with teachers, and he didn't know how the last batch of great scholars who were fooled by him to study how to increase grain production were doing now.

The second prince: "..."

Okay, the prince has made it clear that he doesn't want to return to Beijing and wants to go against his father. Whatever they say will be useless.

The two of them are a little looking forward to it. They wonder how angry their father will be this time.

To the two of them, although Lu Chengtian was their father, he was the emperor first and then a father. It's

not that they didn't expect fatherly love from this father, but this father only cared about government affairs and would not favor any of his sons. If they wanted to get his attention, they had to study hard.

Only those who performed well in his examinations could get his attention and praise.

He never doted on any of his children.

Of course, it wasn't until Xiaoqi was born that the father completely changed.

Therefore, for them, compared with the father, the prince, their younger brother, was closer.

No matter what the prince's original intention was, they were able to be crowned kings so smoothly thanks to the prince's strategies.

If they have to choose between the crown prince and their father, they will undoubtedly stand on the crown prince's side!

They are now looking forward to what the scene will be like when the crown prince returns to Beijing to face his father.

It must be very intense.

I want to see it.

Lu Chengtian has been almost annoyed to death by these court officials recently.

He just started to investigate the mastermind behind the assassination of the crown prince, and then he received news that the second and third princes were also assassinated. The one who committed this treasonous act turned out to be the Shandong governor, the third prince's uncle!

This man is the local emperor of Shandong. All the officials from top to bottom have been subdued and only listen to his orders. How dare this man raise private soldiers?

Lu Chengtian was really angry.

Before, the hot topics in the court were all about the crown prince.

Whether it was the development of efficient textile machines that caused the aristocratic families in Shaojiang South to fall into bankruptcy, or his control of floods and reconstruction of dikes, they were all major events and the focus of debate among court officials.

However, when the assassination happened, all the civil and military officials in the court were silent.

This was really daring. The crown prince, the second prince, and the third prince were assassinated at once.

The officials of Shandong faction were quickly escorted to the capital, and Lu Chengtian directly let his confidants take over and began the interrogation.

The officials were killed in batches, and the blood flowed like a river.

Lu Chengtian was really crazy with killing.

No one dared to touch his mold at this time. In the past few days, the court was really quiet.

Lu Chengtian was in a very bad mood every day. He had killed so many people, but he knew very well in his heart that the biggest mastermind was still hiding in the dark.

Fortunately, at the court meeting, these officials knew what to do and did not continue to impeach the prince, nor did they cause any messy things and continue to trouble him.

At that time, Lu Chengtian did not know that these few days were his rare leisure time.

A few days later, there was news that the prince was building a ship port in Shandong.

It was not that building a ship port violated taboos, but that Daliang was prohibited from going to sea.

This ban was first issued by the emperor of the previous dynasty. After the founding of Daliang, no one thought it was inappropriate, and no one paid attention to this.

However, the prince did not say anything, and he directly built a ship port. What does this mean?

Is he going to open the sea?

For such an important matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince made such a hasty decision and acted on his own. It was simply nonsense!

Lifting the ban on sea trade is a major event for a country, and it must be discussed many times in the court. There are many opinions on whether to lift it or not.

The prince's behavior is simply a naked contempt for the imperial power!

The court immediately quarreled, and this time the quarrel was unprecedentedly fierce. This time even the prime minister participated in the crusade.

Lu Chengtian felt that he had to deal with two big things. This unlucky son could always cause trouble for him outside!
