Reborn Emperor's House

The prince calmed down a bit, looked at the shopkeeper, and hesitated to speak.

The shopkeeper ignored him, and went on to say, "Tang Mu, don't worry, that big animal has nothing but a lot of people, so don't worry about his safety. Besides, if you want Tang Mu to be completely safe, you can count on it." It's better to rely on yourself than anyone else. Why, after suffering a big loss this time, you don't have confidence anymore? Do you think you can't protect that kid anymore?"

The prince lowered his head and didn't know how to explain it. Indeed, Tang Mu felt guilty, but why didn't he feel guilty? How could he be so stupid? He knew that his illness was strange, but he didn't tell Tang Mu in advance. Knowing that something happened to Tang Mu, he couldn't do anything about it. , the prince simply hated himself for being useless.

"Tang Mu sent you a message, saying that he is waiting for your order to let him return to Beijing." The shopkeeper said leisurely.

The prince raised his head suddenly, his eyes suddenly brightened.order?Does this mean that Tang Mu still believes that he can succeed to the throne, and his Mu'er is still full of confidence in him?

The shopkeeper was made a little guilty by the prince's bright eyes. He did contact Tang Mu, but the content of Tang Mu's message was indeed three words, sorry.I'm sorry for the shopkeeper, I'm sorry for King Ming, I'm sorry for Tang Yan, and I'm even more sorry for the crown prince.

Tang Mu blamed himself, but the shopkeeper didn't care about it. The prince had to settle it first, the prince was very depressed, and if this continued, even he would be powerless.The shopkeeper couldn't help but sigh secretly, the prince still lacks training after all, but after this time, it should be quite different.

The shopkeeper slowed down, and then said, "Winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs. We have lost a lot in this round. Let's admit it, but it's not the last round yet."

"Father already knows...I..." The crown prince frowned slightly, but he was not as gloomy as before.

Frustrations and difficulties are not scary, what is scary is that when you are helpless and confused, no one can wake you up, no one can let you talk.

Except for Tang Mu, the prince usually has no one to support each other. If Tang Mu doesn't leave, even in a more difficult situation than now, the prince can hold on.

Fortunately, there is also the shopkeeper.

"Your father is not young anymore. Although there are quite a few sons, those who died prematurely, those who were too young, were able to succeed to the throne, just you and your brothers. Now that the third prince is gone, only your eldest brother is left. Your second brother is with you, so what if your eldest brother and your second brother are gone too?" The shopkeeper said unhurriedly.

"The shopkeeper... you mean? This..." The crown prince understood what the shopkeeper meant, but killing brother, this...

"Heaven's evil is still forgiven, and self-inflicted evil cannot live. I didn't ask you to kill and set fire directly, but they are self-confident, and we can't save all sentient beings. Having said that, your elder brother is sinister, cunning, and cruel, and your second elder brother is cowardly and incompetent, content with the status quo , No matter who becomes the emperor, do you think this country will be fine?" said the shopkeeper.

"It doesn't matter how big a mistake you make. It doesn't matter if you have a broken sleeve or something. When you are under the throne and you are alone, what do you think your father can do?" The shopkeeper continued rubbing his temples.

"I understand." The prince's eyes became firmer.

"What do you think I've been busy with for so many days? I think you've been confused this time. After checking, hmph, it really has something to do with the eldest prince. The emperor sent people to inspect Tang Mu's work, and one of them is the eldest prince. I haven't had time to ask Tang Mu for details, but the people sent by Ren Zishan said that Tang Mu ran away suddenly in the middle of the night, and the inspectors had arrived long ago, so they should have disclosed your condition long ago. Tang Mu should have run long ago, why run in the middle of the night?"

The prince also came to his senses at this moment, "Yes, Yuan Bao said that Mu'er rushed into the mansion in a hurry, and no one paid any attention, as if he thought I couldn't do it."

"That's right, the eldest prince must have made a mess. It probably means that you are dying soon. Tang Mu is a man of strategy and wealth. If he only knew that you were ill, he would not be so reckless, unless he thought you were dying. , Regardless, I want to die to see you, so I don't care so much." The shopkeeper nodded.

The prince gritted his teeth, full of anger.

"The eldest prince's side has been very lively recently. If something happened to you, he might become restless. I guess he was planning to fight for military power. It was originally because of his mother's family, so he shouldn't be too presumptuous, but now you are gone. Competitor, he will not let go of this opportunity."

"Military power..." The prince frowned and thought.

The shopkeeper saw that the prince started to use his brain, that's all right, as long as you don't wait to die, there is still hope, today is not in vain.

"Okay, don't worry about it, let's solve the things around you first. I'll watch over the eldest prince. Remember, no one can save Tang Mu except you. The eldest prince suffered from you before. It's a draw, now is the real contest, don't back down." He patted the prince on the shoulder very boldly.

The prince smiled wryly.

The shopkeeper smiled and pushed open the door to leave. A shadow flickered at the door, and there was a person standing there.

Ren Zishan turned around with a bright face and squatted slightly.

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes, waved his hand at the prince, and put Zishan on his back.

The prince just blinked his eyes, and the man was gone.

The prince closed the door and went back to the house.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

The prince went to court, fell ill, looked haggard, and seemed to be a little depressed.

The queen also went to the queen's side. The queen suspected the prince and Tang Mu, but she didn't expect the emperor to make a plan. It was just that Tang Mu rushed back to the capital, which made the queen feel alarmed. Although the prince tried his best to save it from the queen, the queen Still determined to get rid of Tang Mu.

In the morning, the first prince looked at the prince with contempt in his eyes, and then, Jiang Lan delivered a memorial.

"In the hilly generation in the south, unruly people have accumulated, they have robbed their homes and houses, and there seems to be signs of rebellion. Although it is not clear now, I am afraid that raising tigers will cause trouble, and it will be difficult to deal with it in the future."

The hills in the south, with ravines and ravines, are indeed prone to banditry, and it's not a day or two. The court has sent people to clear the payment before, but it's not thorough, and occasionally there will be trouble.

The prince secretly looked at his uncle, only to see Jiang Lan not squinting, it seemed that he was just discussing the matter without any purpose.

"En." The emperor said, "I know there are many bandits there, but I didn't expect it to become more and more violent."

"My majesty, banditry has been a problem for many years, why not take this opportunity to wipe it out completely so as to avoid future troubles." Jiang Lan said.

"Reporting to the emperor, the minister also thinks that it should be so." Some ministers in the court began to agree.

The prince didn't say a word, just waited and watched.

The emperor thought for a while, "Your ministers are right. If that's the case, let's send troops to wipe them out. This candidate..."

"Father, my son requests to lead troops to suppress the bandits." The eldest prince came out.

Sure enough, the prince knew it secretly.

"Report to the emperor, I am willing to go with the crown prince, and we will eliminate all the bandits." The generals of the Hu family also came out to challenge the battle.

The emperor's eyelids twitched slightly, "This matter... is to be completely wiped out after all, the candidate Rong Zhen will think about it again, let's retire today."
