Chapter 111

"Responding to His Majesty, the veteran thinks that His Royal Highness Xuan Wang is a loyal person, and has a good reputation in the court, the army, and the people. Although his ability to handle affairs is not well judged, he is competent in the matter of offering sacrifices to the sky." Old Chen Ge He expressed his point of view frankly, "His Royal Highness Cheng Wang's previous behavior did have some impact on his own image. If His Royal Highness Cheng Wang is sent to sacrifice to heaven, there will inevitably be some objections in the court."

The emperor looked at the few people without saying a word, his slightly squinted eyes flickered from time to time, although his temples were white, he did not look old at all.

The air in the royal study gradually stagnated.

Elder Li Ge didn't dare to speak anymore, he just sat on the chair tremblingly, lowered his head silently.

"Let me think about it for a while," the emperor exhaled softly, and said in a low voice, "The elders of the pavilion can retire first, and Wen Aiqing can stay."

Prime Minister Wen finally made some moves, he responded steadily, got up and saluted several colleagues, he didn't lift his eyelids when Mr. Li Ge passed by, and only gave a half salute perfunctorily.

Mr. Li Ge saw his perfunctory, his complexion became even more ugly, he snorted coldly, and walked away shaking his beard.

"Aren't Wen Aiqing and Mr. Li Ge right?" After everyone left, the emperor asked Prime Minister Wen with a smile, but a gleam flashed in his eyes.

"I have no such intention." Prime Minister Wen replied calmly while sitting on a chair, holding a teacup in his hand, "It's just that today's matter, Mr. Li Ge is really unfair."

"Why, do you also think that the matter of offering sacrifices to heaven should be handed over to King Xuan?" The emperor's tone suddenly turned cold.

"Which prince should be chosen, the emperor has his own judgment. The ministers are just trying their best," Wen Chengxiang said slowly, "as a minister, he should share his worries for the emperor in every way, instead of misleading the emperor based on his personal preferences."

"Mr. Li Ge watched His Royal Highness Cheng grow up, and he personally taught his lifelong learning. It is inevitable that he is eager to protect his disciples." Prime Minister Wen looked at the emperor's face and continued, "I understand his protective heart, but I can't agree with it." This kind of behavior."

The emperor pondered for a while, then laughed softly, "What a Prime Minister Wen, you can talk about things like forming a party for personal gain in such an elegant way."

"I dare not..."

"Why don't you dare?" The emperor's tone suddenly became gloomy, and the emperor's air was full, "One or two of you think it's wrong to become a king, so isn't my father, the emperor, also unkind to the king? Seems to be hated by the soldiers!"

"Your Majesty's words are wrong." Prime Minister Wen's face remained unchanged, standing in front of the Emperor, "Bai Ge always refuted Mr. Li Ge from the perspective of a soldier, and his words were naturally too radical. According to my opinion, there is still something wrong with this matter." Another explanation."

"Oh? How do you say this?" The emperor looked at Prime Minister Wen with interest.

"Everyone thinks that His Royal Highness Cheng Wang is targeting the soldiers of the three armies, but is this really the case? What good does targeting the soldiers of the three armies do for His Royal Highness Cheng Wang?"

"It's not so much that His Highness King Cheng wants to steal the limelight from the soldiers, but rather that he wants to steal the limelight from His Royal Highness Xuan. The soldiers of the three armies are just implicated."

"Not to mention anything else, His Royal Highness Cheng Wang's thoughts can't be put on the table, let alone such inferior methods."

"As a member of the court, I have seen a lot of intrigues. This matter is nothing. I just think that His Royal Highness Cheng Wang... is a bit superficial."

The emperor leaned on the dragon chair with his eyes closed, and sighed softly, looking extremely tired.

 Forming cliques for personal gain: bad guys gather together to seek personal gain and do bad things.Or form partisans to seek personal gain.
