But now the dynasty is in a turbulent period, with internal and external troubles. In the current situation in Wanzhou, the court is only thinking about party struggles and the struggle for the throne, and has no idea of unity. Once the incident of the crown prince comes out, I am afraid that the emperor will be so angry that he will die.
It really makes matters worse.
In addition, Shen Heng felt that the prince was not a bloodthirsty person. There were no old, weak, women or children in the magic. In the end, he just walked aimlessly with a dazed look on his face, just like he did in the palace that morning.
If he really had a bloodthirsty nature, he would not have spared her. After all, only the dead could truly keep secrets.
Let’s not talk about it. The current situation won’t get any worse.
In the days that followed, the people talked most about the downfall of Mr. Gong, which had implicated more than twenty officials in distress. The subsequent officials' inaction had led to the depletion of the national treasury, and the fact that even food and soldiers could not be guaranteed for this war. All of this spread among the people.
Many officials of the Secretariat were dismissed, and Xie Jian was transferred there to handle matters. He became increasingly busy and was not home for several days.
Chen Heng also breathed a sigh of relief. Facing Xie Jian, not mentioning the Crown Prince's affairs made her feel like she was helping an outsider.
The first snow this year came early. On the first day of December, some snow fell, scattered in the corners.
This night, Xie Jian was rarely free, so Meng Xuanlang, Wu Jin, and Ouyang En all came to Xie's house.
"Ouyang, is the prince really going to lead the troops to war?" Meng Xuanlang asked happily.
A few months later, when he last saw Ouyang, he had paled a bit. With the big guy sitting like this, the entire study suddenly felt much narrower. "The Crown Prince does have such plans. But Lord Qin and I both advise His Highness to think twice. He is the crown prince."
"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince leads his troops to war, I will definitely follow him and lend a hand." Meng Xuanlang said firmly.
Wu Jin looked at Ouyang for a while, then looked at Xuan Lang and nodded.
After serving tea, Chen Heng also sat beside him and listened. The Crown Prince personally led the army? She was quite surprised by the Crown Prince's advocacy of war from the beginning, and this personal expedition was even more surprising.
"Ajian, are you still in a daze?" Meng Xuanlang was very surprised to see Xie Jian staring at something in a daze. He had known this kid for three years. He either looked like an old man or had a lot of ideas in mind. This was the first time he had seen someone like this.
Xie Jian came back to his senses: "Is it strange?"
Meng Xuanlang, Wu Jin, and Ouyang En all murmured in unison, "Strange."
There was a smile in Chen Heng's eyes, and A Jian rarely daydreamed.
"Are you in a dilemma about whether to stop the crown prince from leading the army in person or to stay in the imperial capital?" Meng Xuanlang asked curiously.
"The prince can go if he wants." What does it have to do with him? Xie Jian sneered in his heart. He just wondered what would happen to the Great Cong if the prince died on the battlefield.
"What are you talking about? Aren't you one of the Crown Prince's men?" Meng Xuanlang was surprised. "I used to think His Royal Highness was unreliable, but now I think he's quite good, at least much better than the Fourth Prince. Look at the Eighth Prince. Ever since Wanzhou was captured, he's been hiding at home every day."
Ouyang En also said: "Although I have only known His Highness for a short time, His Highness has a bit of a temper, but he is not confused when it comes to major matters. The Crown Prince will definitely be a wise ruler when he inherits the throne in the future."
Xie Jian lowered his eyes, hiding the impatience and coldness that flashed across his eyes.
Chen Heng felt a little emotional. Would a truly wise ruler do so many things that violated moral principles? But she also knew that many things would be determined by different people's perspectives, some wise, some foolish, some good, some bad.
Looking at the silent Xie Jian, Chen Heng somewhat understood what he was struggling with.
Wu Jin coughed lightly a few times at this time: "There is something, have you forgotten?"
Chen Heng suddenly remembered that it was already December and said with a smile: "How could I forget such a happy event?
Wu Jin wants to kiss
