Chapter 313: Beware of the consequences
"We must make their kingdom unstable!"
"If someone else were to sit on the throne, perhaps the world would be at peace!"
“…”
Such rumors were not taken seriously at first. In fact, because they involved treasonous words, many people were afraid and did not dare to discuss them too much. They also persuaded others not to say too much.
But over time, it became the green grass that pushed away the stones in the spring, growing wildly under the breeze of spring.
More and more people began to talk about this matter, and even some officials became shaken by it.
"Disasters may happen, so we need to make plans early."
"But now there are voices against His Majesty and His Royal Highness everywhere. What are we going to do?"
"Yes, if he is not the current emperor, then he is the current crown prince. Is there any other way to go?"
"There is another person who may be able to save the world!"
"who?"
"King of Yue..."
…
This drought has affected a huge area and a large number of people. The prince is still doing his best to arrange disaster relief. Occasionally, when he breathes a sigh of relief, he hears the rumors about the King of Yue outside and frowns.
"When the King of Yue volunteered to go to provide disaster relief, I thought he was doing his best for the court, but I never thought he had such intentions."
Tang Zhichuan was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead. "He said that all the money allocated by the court and the donation from Mr. Jiang were his own achievements, and used this to win people's hearts. He really has the nerve to do this!"
"The King of Yue has been dormant for several years, and he has always been very careful in his work. I thought he had given up his rebellious thoughts a long time ago, but it seems that this dog can't change its nature of eating shit, and he will immediately show his true colors at the slightest movement." Prince Fu was full of anger, "Such a person with evil intentions must be severely punished!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, please severely punish the King of Yue to prevent him from becoming more and more arrogant and plotting to usurp the throne!" The other old ministers all echoed this.
"It's not difficult to find a few mistakes that King Yue has made and punish him," the prince said in a deep voice, "but King Yue's prestige among the people is very high at this time. If he is punished at this time, he will cry and complain, which will only arouse sympathy."
"I have also thought about summoning the King of Yue to the capital to assist the court with government affairs under the pretext of being seriously ill, and thus placing him under house arrest. However, since the King of Yue has been dormant for many years, he must have already contacted many people in the court to form a clique, and the news will easily leak out. Moreover, if he comes to the capital with great fanfare and makes everyone wait and see the result, I dare not act rashly."
"It feels a bit like a rat in the water right now, which makes people feel very embarrassed." The prince glanced at the many ministers standing in front of him, "Do you have any better countermeasures?"
Prince Fu, Tang Zhichuan and a group of old ministers looked at each other at this time, and after whispering for a while, someone hesitated and spoke.
But what he said was nothing more than words like lenient punishment, and that he would make other plans after the King of Yue's heyday.
But since the King of Yue has already made this move, why would he take his time?
In the future, I am afraid that everyone in this world will only recognize him as the King of Yue!
The prince felt that this method was not appropriate, but he did not have any better ideas, so he just frowned even deeper.
Song Jingyun stood up, his eyes sparkling, "Right now the people are speaking very negatively to Your Majesty and the Crown Prince. The reason is simply because of the drought. The people think the drought is related to Your Majesty and the Crown Prince, but the King of Yue is the one who can save the people."
I had something to do at home today, so I came back too late and didn't have time to write the second chapter. I will only update one chapter today~ (End of this chapter)
