When Emperor Pingkang woke up, there was only Xia Dequan beside him, neither Mo Gu nor the fifth prince was by his side.As for Concubine Li Shu and others, although they wanted to serve, they were blocked by Xia Dequan.Therefore, in Longxing, only Xia Dequan was left to accompany him.

Emperor Pingkang glanced left and right, his face darkened, "Where is the prince?"

Xia Dequan said in a low voice: "The prince is imprisoned in Long Yu."

After all, it was a scandal of the royal family. He guessed what the sage was thinking, so he didn't tell the public about it. Instead, he quietly ordered the prince to be detained. However, the people guarding the prince were all secret guards brought out by him, and they were absolutely loyal. Reliable, there will be no more private releases of the prince.

After a long silence, Emperor Pingkang asked: "Xia Dequan, tell me... does the Crown Prince know that that person is the Prince Jurchen?"

Although he was disappointed with the prince, Emperor Pingkang still held a glimmer of hope, hoping that the prince did not really collude with the Jurchens. If the prince really colluded with the Jurchens, it would not only be a betrayal of his father, but almost a betrayal of his father. Jin dynasty.

The former, he can still tolerate; the latter is not tolerated by heaven and earth.

Xia Dequan was also silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "The old slave thinks the prince doesn't know that the man is the Jurchen prince, but even if the prince didn't know that the man is the Jurchen prince before, he should know later."

Although Shen Biaoli looks like a Han Chinese, it is impossible for him to get along with him every day without revealing his secrets. He has just interrogated him, and many guards have noticed his riding skills, which can be said to be the most outstanding among them , a scholar, with such a good riding skill, how can he not make people suspicious?

If the prince is really a Lengtouqing who can't see anything, it is impossible to sit firmly on the prince's position for so many years. Even if he didn't know it before, he should have guessed a thing or two after getting along for many years.

Thinking about it, the prince obviously has so many trustworthy people to use, so he asked Shen's staff to arrange the breaking of the dike. I'm afraid it was just an idea to push the breaking of the dike to the Jurchen.

Emperor Pingkang was silent for a long time, he also guessed a little bit earlier, but he just didn't want to admit it.

"I'm sorry for that!" Emperor Pingkang said sadly: "He was born to control his mother, but I still established him as the crown prince. I was afraid that I would teach him badly, and I personally took him to the Qianqing Palace to support him. During the most difficult time in the palace, he didn't suffer at all, his food, clothing, housing and transportation were even higher than mine, and he actually repaid me like this!?"

Thinking about the previous plan again, Emperor Pingkang felt more and more that his upbringing to the prince over the years was a joke, "Fortunately, I was going to pass him on after returning to Beijing, but I didn't expect..."

Xia Dequan didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only whisper: "My lord, quench your anger!"

The Holy Majesty seemed to be scolding vigorously, not only the crown prince, but even the First Prince and the Fourth Prince who were still preparing for the palace change in Beijing were also scolded. Under the Holy Majesty's scolding, everyone from the First Prince to the Fourth Prince had problems. Not worthy to be king, even the fifth and seventh princes were scolded.

Xia Dequan listened to the dark thread, the other princes were nothing more than the other princes, the fifth prince and the seventh prince were just outside right now, with their martial arts ears, I'm afraid...

Fearing that the Seventh Prince would throw his hands away in a fit of anger, Xia Dequan hurriedly coughed a few times to hint at Emperor Pingkang.

There was quite a tacit understanding between Emperor Pingkang and Xia Dequan, he knew something was wrong when he heard Xia Dequan's coughing, he suddenly stopped, and asked with some uncertainty: "Has the child rushed to the capital?"

The child in his mouth refers to Mo Gu.

Just as Xia Dequan understands him, he also understands Xia Dequan's temperament. With Xia Dequan's personality, it is impossible not to hand over the Tiger Talisman to Mo Gu. Afraid……

Emperor Pingkang's heart sank slightly. Since the three princes conspired against each other in a row, even if Mo Gu had shown that he didn't care about the throne before, now he doesn't believe Mo Gu anymore. If he really doesn't care about the throne, why bother to do his best Do your best to treat the people in Henan, and do the emperor's business as a prince.

Xia Dequan shook his head with a smile, "Jun Rong didn't take the tiger talisman, but waited outside for the Holy Majesty to wake up."

King Rongjun is really a kind-hearted person. Compared with the other princes, he is more considerate of others. If the other princes would have taken the tiger amulet and left long ago, then he would have to worry about how he, an eunuch, would be enthroned in the future. What about punishment?

Emperor Pingkang was slightly surprised, "He didn't even get the Tiger Talisman? Could it be that he didn't know that if he got the Tiger Talisman, and combined with the forces of Rongning and Ningxia, it would be a breeze to seize the throne?"

Unless it is like the crown prince who used natural calamity to harm people because of his own status and righteousness, no matter whether it is a palace coup or a coup, the word military power is inseparable. Otherwise, how could the eldest prince and the fourth prince target the Rongguo mansion so much? Because the Rongguo Mansion holds the imperial guards, and the military power has been handed over to Mo Gu, this child doesn't even want it! ?

Xia Dequan said with a smile: "The old slave really didn't think of this when he saw the king of Rongjun, and besides..." Xia Dequan paused for a moment, but he told the truth, "The old slave thinks that the king of Rongjun is a bold man with high skills. Second, if King Rong is really interested, I am afraid that he can get the throne without having to waste a single soldier."

Even the embankment that was about to collapse could be saved as soon as it was said, so how could some mere soldiers be looked down upon by him.

Emperor Pingkang was silent for a while, and had to admit that Xia Dequan was telling the truth, the supernatural powers of these two children were far beyond his guess, and he could blame the Henan people for worshiping these two children as if they were living gods.

He pondered for a moment, "Please invite Prince Rong to come in, and tell Mr. Zhang Ge to come in and draw up an order for me."

Although it was impossible for him to bring all civil and military officials with him on this southern tour, he did bring some important civil and military ministers, and Mr. Zhang Ge was one of them.

Xia Dequan was surprised, "Old Zhang Ge!?"

Mr. Zhang Ge is the former prince and grand tutor, and is also the person responsible for teaching the prince. Of course, the relationship between Mr. Zhang Ge and the prince is not close, and he even advises the prince from time to time, otherwise he will not be written by the prince. Request to replace him, but Mr. Zhang Ge has another identity, that is, the father-in-law of the fourth prince.

At such a time, the Holy Majesty even asked Mr. Zhang Ge to draft the decree on his behalf! ?

Emperor Pingkang said coldly: "Zhang Ge is always a smart man, between a daughter and the life of the whole family, he naturally knows how to choose."

"Yes." Xia Dequan responded in a low voice, and asked Mr. Zhang Ge to come over without mentioning it.

But before leaving, Xia Dequan took a thoughtful look at the slightly trembling right hand of the Holy One. It seemed...it was time for him to find a way out for himself.

When the Holy Spirit summoned him, Mr. Zhang Gel hurried over. Although Xia Dequan blocked the matter, how could it be foolish to be able to confuse the emperor's close ministers? Naturally, he felt something was wrong.

First, the embankment of the Cheng family was almost broken. If the Seventh Prince hadn’t come in time, all of them would have been drowned in the flood. After the Seventh Prince arrived, there were imperial physicians coming in and out of the Shengshang Longyu, and the guards in the camp were stricter than before. More than doubled, and those guards who were called protection, but actually stared at him secretly.

As soon as he was summoned by the sage, Mr. Zhang Ge rushed to the sage Long Yu, only to see that apart from Emperor Pingkang and Xia Dequan, even King Rongjun was waiting inside the Long Yu.

Emperor Pingkang glanced at him coldly, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, Zhang Ge looked terrified, and really didn't know what he had done, which offended the Holy One?

Just as Mr. Zhang Ge was thinking wildly, he only heard Emperor Pingkang say coldly: "Mr. Zhang Ge, I am drafting an order on my behalf: order the king of Rong County to lead the imperial guards, and send the eldest prince, the fourth prince, and his henchmen Ye Ming and He Shouzheng Waiting for others to be imprisoned in the mansion."

Originally, Zhang Ge was writing vigorously, drafting the edict according to the emperor's intention, but when he wrote about the fourth prince, he paused and said in surprise: "Fourth prince!?"

"What?" Emperor Pingkang said coldly, "Does Mr. Zhang Ge have any objections?"

Elder Zhang Ge quickly knelt down on the ground, "I dare not! I have been loyal to the Holy One for many years, even if..."

"Enough!" Emperor Pingkang interrupted impatiently: "I'm not telling you to talk nonsense, I want you to draw up an order."

"Yes! Yes!" Zhang Ge suppressed his fear and hurriedly drafted the imperial decree according to the holy will.

Emperor Pingkang didn't wait for the ink to dry, he hurriedly handed over both the imperial decree and the tiger talisman to Mo Gu, and reminded: "If anyone in the First Prince's Mansion and the Fourth Prince's Mansion is disturbed, they will be killed."

The implication of Emperor Pingkang was to let Mo Gu act cheaply, and if necessary, he would kill both the first prince and the fourth prince.

Hearing this, Mr. Zhang Ge couldn't help but look up at King Rong. If King Rong was cruel, he might have taken the opportunity to kill the eldest prince and the fourth prince. After all, is there anyone more reliable than a dead person in this world?

He secretly thought about it, the Holy Majesty handed over the power of life and death of the eldest prince and the fourth prince to King Rong, did he trust King Rong?Or did the first prince and the fourth prince make a huge mistake today, let the Holy One get rid of it and hurry up?Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that the possibility of the latter is higher.

Mo Gu didn't notice the twists and turns in Emperor Pingkang's cheap words, he nodded casually, and hurried away with the tiger talisman and the imperial decree. Although he said that he was not in a hurry, he had restrained the eldest prince and the fourth prince one day earlier and was in the capital. The Jia family can also be safe one day earlier.

After all, although Mo Da and Mo Er used poison to control Mr. Wang, this matter will not last long. The day Wang Jiaojiao enters the residence of the fourth prince, Mr. Wang will definitely show up no matter what.

Judging from the time when Wang Jiaojiao ordered the wedding set, there is not much time left until the day Wang Jiaojiao enters the mansion. If the matter is not resolved before Wang Jiaojiao enters the mansion, I am afraid that with the shrewdness of the fourth prince, he will definitely notice something. However, if they get up early, the Jia family may be in danger.

After Mo Gu left for a long time, Emperor Pingkang still looked at the direction where Mo Gu left, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked Xia Dequan in a low voice half talking to himself: "Do you think this child really doesn't have that kind of thought? Pretending not to care?"

Xia Dequan laughed and said: "I'm afraid that this old slave really doesn't care about His Royal Highness Rong Jun." Then Xia Dequan paused and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, you have a pure and filial prince."

"Heh. Pure filial piety!?" Emperor Pingkang laughed at himself: "It doesn't matter whether it is true or not. Now, do I have any other choices?"

Guo Lai Zhangjun, and even more Lai Mingjun, his body has not allowed him to continue to sit on the throne, and among the remaining princes, only the third prince, fifth prince, and seventh prince are worthy of use.

The third child... Needless to say, although he is filial, it is a pity that his talents and virtues are not enough; the fifth child is not recovering from his illness, and he is not suitable. After thinking about it, there is only one old brother left.

Xia Dequan smiled slightly and remained silent. If he had only guessed a few points before, what Ping Kangdi said now proves one thing. Today... will change.

Emperor Pingkang shouted: "Old Zhang Ge!"

"Chen is here!"

"Draft another imperial decree." Emperor Pingkang said in a deep voice, "Pass the throne to the Seventh Prince──"
