Lian Erye's Road to Imperial Examination

Emperor Longwu shocked the government and the public by announcing the establishment of the second prince as the crown prince!

Ever since the First Prince and the Fourth Prince left the capital, the civil and military officials discovered that Emperor Longwu intended to let the Second Prince stand out, and the Second Prince's performance was very good, which made the civil and military officials suspicious.

In fact, many people saw the signs when Emperor Longwu ordered the second prince, Ming Laojiao, a cabinet scholar.

Emperor Longwu appointed the second prince as the crown prince, and the civil and military officials were dumbfounded for a while, and then they came back to their senses and began to object.

Of course, those who supported the eldest prince and the fourth prince opposed it the most, but they were rejected by Emperor Longwu, and the objection was invalid.

When Emperor Longwu appointed the second prince as the crown prince, not only the civil and military officials were extremely surprised, but even the common people in the capital were extremely shocked.

In these years, the second prince lived in seclusion, and except for major festivals when he would appear in the palace, he hardly showed his face at ordinary times.Not only the common people don't know much about the second prince, but even civil and military officials don't know much about the second prince.All I know is that the second prince has been in poor health since he was a child. He is a medicine jar and has been recuperating.

Unexpectedly, a sick man suddenly became a prince!

This incident caused an uproar in the capital!

Emperor Longwu appointed the second prince as the crown prince, there is no doubt about this matter!No matter how the civil and military officials object, it will have no effect!

It is already a fact that the second prince became the crown prince!

One thing that surprised the eldest prince and the fourth prince was that the ministers who had maintained a neutral attitude all agreed to make the second prince the crown prince.

At this moment, the civil and military officials finally came to their senses. The emperor asked the eldest prince and the fourth prince to return to the fief, not to test the elder prince and the fourth prince, but to really drive them back to the fief, and then to make the second prince the crown prince.

Grand Master Yan thought more. He thought that the emperor had been conniving at the eldest prince and the fourth prince to seize power these years, and nine out of ten it was intentional. The purpose of doing this was to pave the way for the second prince.

It's really a thousand calculations, but I can't count the emperor!

After Emperor Longwu announced the establishment of the second prince as the crown prince, he allowed the second prince to participate in the government and even began to review memorials.

Needless to say, the eldest prince and fourth prince who were far away in the fief were angry and unwilling when they received this news.

The two fought for the position of the crown prince for more than ten years, but in the end, the bamboo basket fetching water was nothing but paving the way for others.No one can bear this tone!

The eldest prince and the fourth prince felt that they were being played around like monkeys by Emperor Longwu, which made them full of resentment towards Emperor Longwu.

The second prince is the biological son of Emperor Longwu, and they are also the biological sons of Emperor Longwu.Emperor Longwu actually sacrificed the eldest prince and the fourth prince in order to pave the way for the second prince. Doing so would definitely chill the hearts of the first prince and the fourth prince.

Because the second prince was far away from the court and did not cultivate his own power, it is impossible for the eldest prince and the fourth prince to bring down the second prince.

The eldest prince and the fourth prince knew that the second prince could not be brought down for the time being, so they could only find ways to discredit the second prince and ruin the second prince's reputation.As a result, it was self-defeating.

Although the second prince has been far away from the court these years, he has done a lot of things secretly under the name "Jiang Run", and has a good reputation among the people.

Not to mention anything else, but Jiang Run's paintings are very famous among the people and are very popular among scholars.

Many students and literati know Jiang Run's name, and some have even met Jiang Run, and admire Jiang Run's painting skills and knowledge very much.

It is not an easy matter to discredit the Second Prince's reputation.

The students and literati heard that Jiang Run was the second prince, so they didn't object at all to him becoming the prince, on the contrary, they agreed very much.

The fourth prince liked men before, his reputation has been ruined, and scholars all over the world despise him.

Although the First Prince didn't do anything bad, the First Prince has always valued martial arts over literature, and is not welcomed by scholars.After making a comparison like this, everyone has a good impression of the second prince who has a good reputation and agrees that he should become the prince.

Since the second prince became the crown prince, Jia Lian has become busy, leaving early and returning late every day.

"Husband, are you ready for dinner?" Zhuang Jingrong took off Jia Lian's outer robe and asked with concern.

"I ate in the palace, but I'm a little hungry now, give me those snacks."

"it is good."

During this period of time, Jia was very busy and lost a lot of weight, Zhuang Jingrong looked very distressed.

"Husband, aren't you mainly responsible for researching things, why are you so busy?"

"I used to study things, but recently I have researched all the weapons, so the emperor asked me to be a cabinet servant and a bachelor."

"Husband, you have worked hard!" Zhuang Jingrong knew that all this was for his cousin.

"I have too much to learn as a rookie." Jia Lian had a big headache at first, but it's a little better now, but there are still many things he doesn't understand.

Zhuang Jingrong encouraged: "I believe my husband can do it."

"Thank you ma'am." After eating a few pieces of pastries, Jia Lian was full, so Jia Lian didn't rush to rest, but went to the study to continue working.

Today, I received a secret message from Jia Yuanchun, that the fourth prince has already started to rebel, and he is currently gathering troops to prepare food and grass.

Jia Lian stopped what he was doing and sighed softly, "It seems that a war is inevitable, I hope there will not be too many deaths." Whether it is ancient times or modern times, civilians who suffer in war will die.

There is no news from the First Prince yet, but the First Prince is waiting for the Fourth Prince to act first.

The eldest prince wanted to reap the benefits of being a fisherman, and he would take action again when the fourth prince fought with the imperial court and suffered heavy casualties in the end.

The Fourth Prince naturally also guessed that the First Prince wanted to reap the benefits, so he wrote a letter to the First Prince, asking the First Prince to join forces with him.

The eldest prince didn't trust the fourth prince, so he refused the invitation to join forces.Another point, the reason why the eldest prince dare not act rashly is because his fief is in the northwest, and there is a military camp in the northwest, which is exactly the military camp where Song Yunfei is.

The military power that the First Prince held before was the military power in the Southwest region, but it has been taken back by Emperor Longwu. Even though he has many military supporters, compared with the Northwest Army, it is far behind.

This was also the main reason why Emperor Longwu was sure that the eldest prince would not dare to rebel. In fact, there was another reason that the eldest prince was not very courageous, he was somewhat indecisive, not as decisive and vicious as the fourth prince.

The eldest prince lacked the courage to fight, so he didn't dare to rebel, he just wanted to reap the benefits of being a fisherman.

Jia Lian was not worried about this battle, because Emperor Longwu had already made preparations, and with the cannon he researched, this battle would not be lost.

The fourth prince far in the northeast is indeed secretly preparing to rebel, and wants to cooperate with the Yan family from inside to outside.

A few days later, Jia Yuanchun got evidence that the fourth prince was about to rebel, and sent the evidence back to the capital.

Jia Lian borrowed some secret guards from the Supreme Emperor, and secretly rescued Jia Yuanchun from the fourth prince's fiefdom.

In order to facilitate the smooth progress of the rebellion plan of the fourth prince and the Yan family, Emperor Longwu decided to take all the civil and military officials to Xishan for spring hunting.

The day before going hunting in the Western Mountains, Jia Lian called Jia She and the others over, and solemnly told them several times to stay at home, close the door, not to go anywhere, and not to let anyone in.

Jia She and the others were frightened by Jia Lian's words: "Brother Lian, what happened?"

"Father, it's better that you don't know about this matter." Jia Lian didn't want to scare Jia She and the others, and didn't want to tell them about the fourth prince's breakfast. "There will be danger in the capital these few days. You all stay at home and don't go anywhere."

"Is the capital in danger?" Jia She's eyes widened, his face full of astonishment, "Then is it dangerous for you to go hunting tomorrow?" After finishing speaking, his expression was very worried and nervous.

"Don't worry, the hunting ground is guarded by heavy soldiers, and I will be fine." In fact, the Xishan hunting ground is the most dangerous tomorrow.

When Jia Amnesty heard this, he thought about it. Tomorrow, when the emperor is here, there will be many guards to protect him, so there will be no danger.

"You must stay at home honestly and don't go anywhere, understand?" The fourth prince and his troops divided into two groups, one went to Xishan to assassinate, and the other sent troops to capture the capital and the palace.

Seeing Jia Lian's serious expression, Jia She and the others would naturally be obedient.

"You can go hunting without worry, we will stay at home and not go anywhere these days."

"Then I'm relieved." Jia She said a few more words to Jia She, and then went back to the room and told Zhuang Jingrong a few more words. "As long as you stay at home, you will be fine." He borrowed some hidden guards from the Supreme Emperor to secretly protect Zhuang Jingrong and the others.

"Husband, I will take good care of my father and mother, stay at home and don't go anywhere, you can go to Xishan with peace of mind." Zhuang Jingrong's expression became very serious, "But, husband, you have to promise me that you will come back safely. "

Jia Lian hugged Zhuang Jingrong tightly, and said softly, "Don't worry, I will come back safely." He is only going to make soy sauce tomorrow, so it shouldn't be affected.

Tomorrow, Jia Lian will be slapped in the face by himself and misses an appointment with Zhuang Jingrong. Not only did he not come back safely, but he almost died.

After Jia Lian explained to his family, he went to the palace early the next morning.

As soon as he arrived in the palace, Jia Lian was called to the Supreme Emperor and had breakfast with him.

"Xishan will be very dangerous today, you have to protect yourself, don't act recklessly and act like a hero." The Supreme Emperor wanted to follow him to hunt in Xishan, but it was too dangerous. inside.

"Grandpa Lin, if I come back safely, can you promise me one thing?" There is one thing that Jia Lian has always cared about and is very curious about.

The Supreme Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "What is it?"

"Can you tell me why you like me so much?"

When the Supreme Emperor heard Jia Lian's words, he was stunned and looked at Jia Lian in surprise.

"Grandpa Lin, can you?" He has always been very concerned about why the Supreme Emperor likes him so much. He thinks that the Supreme Emperor will not like him for no reason. There must be some reason for this.
