Chapter 42 He is the heir to the empire

Li Chen stood up and said, "It is better to meet the day than choose a day. I am free today, so I don't have to bother the lady back and forth. I also happened to see the heroic figure among the talented people in the capital."

Su Zhenting did not object and arranged a servant to take Li Chen away, and Sanbao naturally followed behind.

As soon as Li Chen left, the lobby was in an instant.

Su Pingbei was indignant and said, "Father, why!"

"Even if he is the crown prince, Zhao Xuan in the court has great influence and almost no one is standing on the side of the crown prince. Now he is relying on the emperor to hold on in one breath. If the collapse of one day, it is still unknown who the throne belongs to. Father, you have been teaching your child that the Su family's military achievements are too famous, so you should act low-key to avoid trouble. But now you marry your younger sister to the crown prince. Isn't this obviously going to the front desk and going to the prince to fight against the civil and military officials in the court?"

Su Pingbei's words represent the voice of all the Su family. As soon as he spoke, everyone calmed down and waited for Su Zhenting to give an answer.

Su Zhenting seemed to have already prepared a speech, and he said: "This matter involves the agreement between my father and the emperor many years ago. Now it is time to fulfill his promise, so you don't need to worry too much."

"Who said that the prince is alone in the court and has no support? My Su family is the power in the hands of the prince."

Su Pingbei widened his eyes and said dissatisfiedly: "The child is still confused. He has kept his low profile for many years and has been protecting himself. But today he suddenly doesn't need it? Why?"

"If the Su family needs to rely on the prince to protect the family's incense, why is the emperor not allowed to marry when he is healthy? Why did he tie the Su family to the prince until the empire is in turmoil and the turmoil of the court?"

Su Zhenting said in a deep voice: "The Su family is the power left by the emperor to the future heirs of the empire. You have not discovered that although he was beaten to the end and only had a false general position for his father, has the direct lineage of the Su family never been affected? Zhao Xuanji began to arrange the government more than ten years ago. The emperor, do you really know nothing and have no backup plan?"

"Earlier, although the prince was the prince, he might not be the heir to the empire. Until now, he took out this jade pendant and was the heir to the empire."

Su Zhenting looked at the group of people with a shocked expression and said, "You should understand what I mean even after all."

While the Su family was arguing fiercely in the main hall, Li Chen had already left the General's Mansion.

The slaves of the General's Mansion led the way, Sanbao drove the carriage himself, while Li Chen sat in the carriage, rubbed the jade pendant and closed his eyes to meditate.

But for a long time, the carriage stopped.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, there is the poetry meeting scene ahead. You can go there, but if you have a humble identity, you won't go there."

Li Chen waved his hand and signaled that the Three Treasures would give him a reward.

The servant took the reward and felt that the prince was very generous and left with great gratitude.

Getting off the carriage, Li Chen looked up and saw that it was already outside the western suburbs of the capital.

This place is close to Hanlin, with a strong literary style. In addition, the scenery is beautiful. There is a big river passing by the city, connecting to the North Sea in the north, and surrounding mountains and rivers are always places that some literati and poets like to come.

Not far away, there was a towering attic. The attic was obviously just built, and people were coming and going around, mostly dressed up by scholars. When they met and talked to each other, they were full of words. Li Chen had a headache when he heard this.

"You're waiting here."

Li Chen said to Sanbao, and did not let Sanbao, who was known to many people in the capital, follow him and walked straight into the attic.
