Chapter 487 Provocation
The main hall of the East Palace.
Changsun Chong knelt down and looked at the prince Li Chengqian in front of him angrily.
"How can Your Highness be so willing to fall for yourself? Not to mention that the beautiful country in your hands will be taken away, have you ever thought about what will happen to you once the crown prince is deposed? No king, Keeping the former prince safe and sound has nothing to do with friendship or good or evil. This is what must be done! As long as the prince is deposed, his highness will not be far away from death!"
He spoke loudly and was obviously very excited, but Li Chengqian was expressionless and indifferent.
His Royal Highness, who used to be as gentle as jade, is now in a state of depression. The weak stubble on his chin looks very decadent. His whole person seems to have lost all energy, like a walking corpse...
What Changsun Chong said was true, how could Li Chengqian not know?
But there was nothing he could do.
First, Prince Zhan Shiyu Zhining was assassinated, and then Qingque was assassinated...
Before the murderer was caught, Li Chengqian was the biggest suspect. Others knew this, and Li Chengqian knew it even better.
It is understandable that the father would be angry because of this. The ensuing discussion of abolishing the crown prince was brought up again, which is naturally the proper meaning of the topic. Only this time, Li Chengqian couldn't even say anything to defend himself.
Sometimes he even wondered, if the assassin really killed Qingque, would it be over and his father would have no other choice?
"Your Highness!" Changsun Chong stood up and leaned forward slightly, staring into Li Chengqian's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "We can't just sit back and wait for death, we must fight with all our strength! Otherwise, it will be a situation that will never be restored!"
"Strive for it?" Li Chengqian smiled miserably: "How to fight for it? Forget it, since my father has made up his mind to depose the prince, what is the use of fighting for it? It will only make my father angry in vain. I am his son, and this world belongs to him Yes, he can leave it to whoever he is willing to give it to, whatever he wants..."
Over the years, the gentle and gentle Li Chengqian has been overwhelmed by the tremendous pressure he has endured as a prince. He was not an energetic and ambitious person to begin with. The many hardships he had experienced over the years in order to maintain his status as prince had left him mentally and physically exhausted.
Since things can't be done anymore, it's better to let go, life and death are determined by fate, let it go...
At this moment, Li Chengqian was really frustrated.
Changsun Chong became more and more excited and almost shouted: "How can you be willing to give up this supreme position in the world to others? If others refuse, how can your Highness not know the mood of King Wei? Once he becomes the great treasure, Your Highness will There is no way to survive! Your destiny is in your own hands!”
Li Chengqian asked: "How to control it? This world belongs to the father. Who will he leave it to? Who can control his mind?"
Changsun Chong looked back and saw that all the servants in the palace had been driven out by him. There was no one around, so he lowered his voice and said word by word: "Have you forgotten, how did your Majesty get this throne?"
< br>
In one sentence, earth-shattering!
Li Chengqian was shocked and said angrily: "Chang Sun Chong! I have deep affection for you Gu Nian, but how can I say such treacherous words? If these words are spread, how can you and I go to see my father?"
Changsun Chong gritted his teeth and said, "The knife has been put to the neck, how can I just let the mermaid become flesh? As long as His Highness makes up his mind, I promise that not only will the Changsun family fully support you, but they will also contact the court for you." Central and important ministers and generals ! But we have the righteousness of the civil servants, the military power of the generals, and you, your highness, are popular, so why worry about the big thing failing? At most, after it is done, we can treat the king of Wei and other princes well, and serve your majesty for the rest of our lives..."
"Shut up!"
Li Chengqian looked firm and said decisively: "That's it for now. You and Gu have grown up together and have a deep friendship. Just pretend that you have never heard of what happened today. If you continue to mislead Gu and do something that is treasonous and outrageous to both humans and gods, don't blame Gu." No mercy!”
After saying this, he entered the inner hall with his sleeves rolled up, leaving only Changsun Chong sitting there.
Changsun Chong's gloomy expression changed slightly, but a strange smile appeared on his lips...

"Brother-in-law, can you tell me a story?"
Just after dinner, Fang Jun and King Wei sat opposite each other, drinking tea, but they looked at each other disgustedly and sat speechless. The goodwill that had been built up little by little had long since disappeared with His Majesty Li Er's self-righteous arrangements, and the situation had returned to the Cold War stage of the past.
Princess Jinyang pestered Fang Jun to listen to the story.
Fang Jun would never refuse the request of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Then he said: "How about this, Wei Chen, there are many greenhouses in the village, and many fruits and vegetables are in the maturity stage. How about we go pick some and eat them, and tell stories while eating?"
"Let's go then!" Princess Jinyang immediately jumped for joy.
Novel stories and delicious fruits are the little princess's favorites. Now that she can have both, how can she not be overjoyed?
This time, begging Brother Qingque to bring him here was indeed the wisest decision!
Princess Jinyang was held by Fang Jun and walked to the door. She turned around and waved to Li Tai with her other hand: "Brother Qingque, don't sit here, let's go find something delicious together!"
"Oh."
Li Tai responded, thought for a while, then stood up and strolled behind the two of them.
Although it was a bit embarrassing, Li Tai was quite surprised by the various fresh vegetables on the table when he was just eating. During this freezing season, even in the palace, only a few vegetables were cultivated in the greenhouse, but the Fang family had a dazzling array of varieties.
Li Tai is not a bookworm. He has all kinds of abilities for people's livelihood and wealth. He can see at a glance that the cultivation level of off-season vegetables in Fang's greenhouse far exceeds that of the royal family, which can't help but surprise him.
Night falls and it's not completely dark yet.
There was silence in Zhuangzi, except for one or two barking dogs, and it was full of a quiet and comfortable pastoral joy.
Because His Highness King Wei is in the village, the maids and servants dare not move around freely. If they accidentally bump into His Highness, it will be a serious matter. Not only that, given that Li Tai had coveted Wu Meiniang when he was offering incense at Qingyuan Temple outside the city last year, Fang Jun sent all his family members to Fang's house in the city to prevent Li Tai from having any thoughts...
The bodyguards brought by Li Tai and a pair of imperial guards sent by His Majesty Li Er were all guarding the outside of Zhuangzi, loose on the inside and tight on the outside.
On the sunny hillside, the Fang family's greenhouses are lined up in rows and scattered in an orderly manner.
Greenhouses are built with large pieces of glass to insulate and transmit light. Li Tai was amazed by these glasses alone, and he had to admire Fang Jun's generosity.
Nowadays, the glass workshop is controlled by the royal family. Li Tai has a lot of knowledge about miscellaneous knowledge and is also curious about it. He has gone deep into the workshop more than once to learn how to bake and shape glass, so he also understands the properties of this thing better. Precious place.
Ordinary glassware is fine, but the process of making flat glass is quite difficult. Although the glass used in this greenhouse is not of high quality, if it were sold, it would probably be worth at least ten thousand yuan... …
Was all the wealth so casually thrown into a greenhouse for growing vegetables?
Even the luxurious and dandy Li Tai couldn't help but admire Fang Jun's hand gestures.
If we talk about the ability to spend money, looking at Chang'an, I am afraid that no one can be better than Fang Jun...
Fang Jun held Princess Jinyang's hand and walked in front. The little girl was jumping up and down happily. When she walked into the greenhouse at the front, an old farmer was repairing the waterway for injecting hot spring water. The little princess walked over and asked curiously. : "Grandpa, what are you doing?"
The old farmer turned around and saw a cute little girl, who was being held by Erlang's hand. He didn't care and said with a smile: "This greenhouse needs hot spring water to adjust the temperature. The old man had nothing to do, so he repaired it. Sewer.”
"Oh." Princess Jinyang seemed to understand. When she looked up, she saw cucumbers as long as the palm of your hand growing on the green cucumber vine. They were thin, tender, emerald green, with a yellow bud on the top. .
"Wow! Cucumber!" the little princess exclaimed excitedly, broke away from Fang Jun's hand, and ran under the cucumber stand. She looked up at the green and tender cucumbers with her little face raised, her saliva almost flowed out, and she turned her head Asked Fang Jundao: "Brother-in-law, can this be eaten?"
Fang Jun smiled and said: "Of course!"
Wen Yan, Princess Jinyang stretched out her little hand to pick a small cucumber in front of her. (End of chapter)
