The territory of Qi State has expanded and the population has increased, so the factions and conflicting interests in it have naturally increased.

Leaving aside, let's take the issue of the heir to the throne, and Cao Anmin once made a difficult situation.

Although the eldest son Cao Sheng is not top-notch in Wentao and Wulu, he can be regarded as a conservative monarch, and he will inherit the great cause in the future.

But Cao Shou, Cao Yong, Cao Tai and others also have good strengths because of their genes.

Among them, Cao Tai often went in and out of the army because of his good force, and he also founded some forces in private.

And the jade pendant in front of him is the seal of the power he founded.

Could it be that it was his son Cao Tai who assassinated him?

Cao Anmin only felt that his three views had collapsed.

That was the son he had worked so hard to raise, would he want to assassinate himself?

Although Cao Anmin felt a little flustered by this matter, he suddenly felt relieved when he remembered the cases that abounded in history.

The throne is supreme, but who would he be able to endure such a temptation?

Otherwise, Huan Wen wouldn't have said it back then, if a real man doesn't live up to his name, he will be left with a bad name forever.

Prince Cao Sheng's wings are gradually full. If he is healthy for a while, these princes will naturally have nothing to do.

But if the prince is gone, their chance will come.

But there is only one throne, and no one can predict who this position will eventually fall on.

Will Cao Anmin be enshrined in accordance with the patriarchal system, or will he change the Confucian requirements and establish the virtuous instead of the elders?

These are questions.

But if Cao Anmin dies, the one who inherits the throne must be the most powerful one in the court.

Cao Anmin sneered and remained silent. About a moment later, outside the tent, Zheng He and Zhan Zhao hurried over after receiving the news of Cao Anmin's assassination.

"Your Majesty?" Zheng He's voice trembled.He was in charge of Cao Anmin's daily life, and there was an assassin hidden in the dragon tent, but he didn't know it.

If this spreads, his head may really be lost.

"Zhan Zhao, let me disperse your people, especially carefully investigate the situation in the capital, I want to know what the princes are doing."

Zhan Zhao was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly realized that he clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, it's about the prince, if I find any clues, what will happen?"

"If there is anything, report to me immediately."

Chapter 1057 Extra Story 23, The Forgotten Person

Danxia Temple is located in the mountains southeast of Pengcheng.

Since Emperor Qi's Cao Anmin wanted to destroy Buddhism, there was no shadow of Buddhism in the middle-earth generation. Local Taoism continued to prosper, and gradually became a colossus that cannot be ignored in this land.

Under Cao Anmin's full control, Taoism changed its past style of extravagance and pleasure, and instead incorporated many Buddhist sentiments of helping the world into its teachings.

Because of this, when I was outside, I often saw figures of Taoist disciples Ji Shi in Taoist uniforms with simple faces.

In the early morning of this day, when the gate of the courtyard had just opened, a little boy carrying a broom was about to clean the steps as usual, but he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

On the steps, chickens torn into pieces can be seen everywhere.

Feathers were scattered all over the ground, and chicken blood was also splashed everywhere.

"This..." Xiao Daotong's legs went limp, and he slumped on the ground.

Danxia Temple has been built for decades, and this is the first time that such a strange thing has happened.Even if the weasel in the back mountain went down to eat chicken, there was no such bloody scene.

Judging from the tragic condition of the chickens alone, it seems that they were all forcibly torn in half by someone.

What is the plan of such a cruel person?

Xiao Daotong didn't dare to wait, and quickly told the head of the monastery about it.

All of a sudden, the entire Danxia Temple was boiling.

Seeing this situation, the first seat was silent.

Although Danxia Temple is only a small dojo, it is actually inextricably linked with the imperial court.

Among other things, as far as his words and deeds are concerned, he was once the deputy commander of Jin Yiwei.

It's just that when he led the team out to scout for information, he was discovered by the enemy, thus revealing his whereabouts.

Zhan Zhao went to Cao Anmin, but in desperation, he had no choice but to dismiss him from his position and pay him a large amount of resettlement fees.

He respected Taoism in his words and deeds, and he wandered about with no worries, so he finally found a suitable place outside Pengcheng, built a gymnasium, and settled down here.

For several years, it is considered to be in peace.

Because of his status, Jin Yiwei's people who had been favored by him before would come here from time to time to give a little incense money, which made the Danxia Temple quite prosperous.

Now, what happened in front of him made his words and deeds suddenly recall some past events, and his brows and eyes were full of restlessness.

Jin Yiwei went up to Chen Tianzi and went down to investigate the officials of various states and counties. He had great power, and no supervisory organization could match it, and he was completely loyal to the emperor alone.

As Cao Anmin gradually aged, some ambitious people gradually grew up among Jin Yiwei.

Commander Zhan Zhao was originally Cao Anmin's confidant, besides, he himself was cautious and never got involved in the court situation.It is precisely because of his wisdom that Cao Anmin entrusted him with important tasks, and repeatedly awarded him titles, so that his status is no less than those military commanders who hold heavy troops and control one side.

No matter which prince takes over in the future, it will not have any influence on Zhan Zhao.

But for the deputy commanders below, the situation is quite different.

At first, Jin Yiwei had only one deputy commander, but as the territory continued to expand, the number of deputy commanders expanded from the initial two to as many as twelve.

Among these people, some are old people who fought with Cao Anmin, and some are newcomers who have been gradually promoted later.

Under the alternation of the old and the new, many people in Jinyiwei defected to the courtiers one after another.

On the surface, they are Cao Anmin's sharpest swords, but in fact, they are also helping the princes and grandchildren to find out information.

Words and deeds have also been in contact with some princes and grandchildren for their livelihood before.

But after quitting Jinyiwei, he gradually put aside his relationship with these people.

He also learned about the changes in the court from some old friends.

The prince is hysterical, His Majesty's expedition, the queen's regent, and the cabinet ministers assist the government.Under such circumstances, how can those princes who have been dormant for a long time not want to move.
