It is very useful to use the lives of other people's relatives as a threat.

A person who refuses to save even his close relatives must be despised even if he is loyal and righteous.

For example, those generals with tens of thousands of people always keep their families in the capital. This is the case in all dynasties. If that general has no relatives and does not get married, the variables in his career will be very high. In name, this is the court's ability to value officials in governing the family.                                                                                         �

Needless to say, prejudice is not mentioned. Adult men have no wives and concubines. Could it be that they suffer from hidden diseases?

The taboo is to worry that such people who have no relatives and no reason are innocent.

A large part of the reason why Liu Dan was excluded in the court was that he was alone and refused the proposal of the Xu tribe's daughter as a wife and concubine.

This is not how noble he is or how unique he is, but that his career is mainly based on the emperor's trust. Even if his in-laws who have turned several turns will be automatically divided into certain factions in the court. Liu Dan can only refuse them all.

But in the eyes of civil officials, this is an active show of kindness. If it weren’t for Liu Dan’s ability and strong saints, he wouldn’t even think about marriage between a tribe and a woman! As a result, Liu Dan was shameless?!

Liu Dan rejected seven or eight families, and then found that even if he really liked a good woman of equal status, it would be difficult to marry the other party, unless the Yue family was willing to offend the courtier who had proposed to marry each other before.

The military officer was suppressed in the Qi Dynasty and his life was not easy. Liu Dan was the hot potato in their eyes. Whoever took the skin first could take off the skin and could only consider the benefits brought by this son-in-law.

As soon as they hesitated, Liu Dan immediately noticed it.

The original intention of the court officials was to suppress Liu Dan and let the martial artist know the consequences of offending them. As long as Liu Dan bowed his head, they could turn a blind eye and let go if they could cause some trouble. As a result, Liu Dan was also a timid and refused to marry him!

The military generals who led the army outside had no family in Beijing would inevitably be suspicious of the emperor. It would be fine if they had only a few thousand people under Liu Dan, but they would not be able to go further. The court officials thought that they had blocked Liu Dan's career because of this unwritten practice.

At this moment, the prime minister of Wenyuan Pavilion who was blowing cold wind outside the bedroom despised Lu Zhang, who actually controlled the prince's family and the eunuch in charge of the Eastern Palace to control the prince. But then they thought about it, and they were silent.

The eunuch just said it a little ugly, but are there fewer people doing this kind of thing?

When trying every means to combat political enemies, how can we bribe and win over the other party’s aides and servants at home? When money is not enough, we naturally have to do this.

The family of servants is more valued. Isn’t the staff who take their families to live in the home house to avoid this? Some people who use any means may even abduct other people’s children.

Of course, he would not do it himself like Prime Minister Zhang, but he would acquiesce to do so.

As the emperor, Lu Zhang had many ways to control the prince, and the fact is indeed the case. The Crown Princess and the General Manager of the Eastern Palace were not the most important move at all.

His early experiences gave Lu Zhang a deep desire for control, so he would not forget any of them as long as he could play. Whether it is useful or not, he must use it, and he was immersed in this power that can make people suffer due to the life and death of others.

Chen Cai usually makes a fool of himself. Only when he is forced to force him will he spread some useful news. Lu Zhang didn't agree. Isn't this the eunuch like this, he is greedy and short-sighted, afraid that his family will die, and he wants to slap the prince.

result--

At this moment, Lu Zhang just wanted to order people to drag Chen Cai down and beat him to death with sticks.

It was not because of the betrayal of the chess piece, but Chen Caisi's strange smile with mocking.

Those who are out of control and do not suffer from power... should die...

"Lu Jun! Okay, you're very good, I've still underestimated you!" Lu Zhang laughed furiously,

But his body couldn't hold him to face, and he paused and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"His Majesty!"

The palace people in the bedroom exclaimed and stared at the prince who was forcing the palace in panic.

Meng Qi, who was eavesdropping on the roof, was very puzzled. He was just an eunuch who was out of control. Why did Lu Zhang vomit blood so much that he was so angry that he vomited blood? Could it be that this was a strategy used by Lu Zhang, pretending to faint and waiting for an opportunity to turn the tables?

There was a cat in the hall. Meng Qi hesitated for a moment, quietly crossing the eaves to the wall, and silently flipped into the window.

Before he landed, Meng Qi felt someone in front of him. He quickly stretched out his hand and lit the acupoint without waiting for the man to scream.

After the curtain, Meng Qi and the third prince looked at each other.

A good place to hide is always an embarrassment of being taken aback one after another.

After the third prince understood what was going on, his eyes were filled with fear, as if he was about to faint, but his right hand, which was huddled in his sleeve, was a little unnatural.

Meng Qi could see at a glance that the third prince had a powerful weapon.

"I'll watch the fun by passing by." Meng Qi threw a word from the Third Prince An's heart. He felt that if he didn't explain it clearly, the Third Prince would have to think about a lot of things that were missing and then cause trouble.

Meng Qi gently pushed open the curtain, revealing a crack, and then peeked at the situation in the bedroom.

Coincidentally, the palace people supported the emperor and were driven back by the Jinyiwei, and Lu Zhang happened to face this direction.

Meng Qi is not a doctor and can't cure diseases, but his eyes are very good.

Lu Zhang's hands and feet twitched from time to time. This was actually caused by Meng Qi's injecting the internal force several days ago. This usage was thought of by Meng Qi when he was in Qinghu Town.

It won't kill anyone, it will happen from time to time.

Meng Qi was very surprised when he saw Lu Zhang's hands and feet twitching. According to his original intention, the pain was painful. As long as he was not stimulated by external forces (same-original internal forces), it should not be so painful.

This can't be pretended!

It is easy to pretend to be dead, but it is difficult to pretend to be sick, let alone such extremely difficult convulsions.

The imperial physician almost thought the emperor had a stroke.

So getting angry will aggravate the running of true qi in the body, and the effect will be even more terrifying? Meng Qi fell into deep thought.

At this time, the Jinyiwei came in and reported to the news that the court officials from Wenyuan Pavilion were brought over. The prince nodded slightly. The ministers who were drinking cold wind outside suddenly escaped from the sea of ​​suffering and entered the bedroom one by one.

The emperor's bedroom was very large, but now the prince and a group of Jinyiwei came in first. Now the imperial guards "bringed" a group of second-rank officials and above, and the entire palace became very crowded.

It is no longer safe in the originally remote corners like the curtain tent. There are more lights in the hall, and people are walking around nearby.

General Manager Chen had already found an opportunity and quietly told the prince that there was a person hidden in the curtain tent, and it was obvious that the boots should be the third prince.

The prince looked over there, but felt something was wrong.

In the blink of an eye, there was indeed only a pair of boots, and the lights blurred the figure.

"Who?"

The Jinyiwei also discovered an abnormality and drew his sword to open the curtain.

"Stop!" Chen Cai hurriedly stopped.

The third prince shivered at the blade, but did not shout.

When everyone saw that he didn't speak, they thought the third prince had been frightened and only the prince felt something was wrong. Just when they were about to say something, a true energy was untied from the air.

The third prince called out subconsciously, then looked around in panic.

The prime ministers of Wenyuan Pavilion were a little uncomfortable when they saw the third prince who was extremely cowardly and incompetent.

At this time, it depends on the thickness of the face. Prime Minister Zhang was able to hold back, while Prime Minister Jiang was so angry that he felt ashamed and regretful when he thought of his approval and support for such a prince to ascend the throne.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince." Prime Minister Jiang saluted the prince tremblingly.

"I won't help the old prime minister sit down." The prince ordered the people around him.

In the blink of an eye, four eunuchs came, and without any explanation, they took Prime Minister Jiang out of a group of ministers, respectfully "invited" to the side and gave him a round stool.

The remaining court officials were also invited to different places by the Jinyiwei and the eunuch.

When Prime Minister Zhang realized it, no one of his confidants was left, only two court officials who were not very good at dealing with him.

Prime Minister Zhang originally signaled that the people on his side came out to question, but after being tortured by such a problem, he could still question, but if he wanted to show each other with a look, he wouldn't think about anything. It was far apart, and there were still people staring at him.

"Why did the prince do such a traitor?"

The first person to attack was the Minister of Rites. He was not the Prime Minister Zhang's person, but felt that he could not plan to support the Third Prince. He was unwilling to accept that he could not help but speak out about the Three Bonds and Five Constant Persons.

When the ministers entered the door, they looked at the prince carefully.

Although she was dressed thickly and looked weak and weak, her face was still OK (Nanyu's credit) and she did not cough badly (Doctor Mo's prescription only drank a bowl before leaving the house). All of this clearly shows that the prince's critical illness may have been a false news intentionally released, in order to paralyze the emperor and prepare for the palace.

Looking at Lu Zhang, who was suspected of having a stroke, the court officials who originally wanted to stand on the emperor's side and continue to support the third prince ascend the throne and fell heavily.

Although Prime Minister Zhang was disappointed, he was still calm. He was thinking about how to deal with it in his heart. Suddenly he thought of Liu Dan... They did the military rations in the northern border very carefully and could not get any tangible evidence. Even if they wanted to investigate, they could only arrest the small officials of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War. The letter suspected to have fallen into Liu Dan's hand was not important. He had no title and had no signature. He could not check it if he refused to admit it.

The real problem actually lies in Qiuling County!

The Si family in Silang Mountain did business in Qiuling County and gave local officials a lot of benefits. Although no one knew about their stealing gold mines, those who received bribes would be in trouble.

Prime Minister Zhang had to live up to his own disciple, the filial piety of the prefect of Pingzhou. At that time, he only knew that he was a merchant. Although he had raised an army in the late Chen Dynasty and was also granted the title of the Chu Dynasty, it was all about Chen Zhimao. Now if you want to make a convenient situation and open a license to Pingzhou in Yongzhou, you have to make a complete set of points?

Let’s talk about Lu Zhang’s furious news from Qiuling County. Prime Minister Zhang secretly complained that something was wrong. Although there was an earthquake in Qiuling County and the officials died completely, the prefect of Pingzhou was still alive. Unfortunately, a book of the Si family’s account was leaked at the time of the incident, and the person was also encountered by Liu Dan. The account book might contain bribes to the prefect of Pingzhou, and some of the items of Xigui had been given to Prime Minister Zhang by the prefect.

The Si family is planning to rebel!

If this matter is added with the military rations in the northern border, Prime Minister Zhang's gangsters will definitely be killed, and it will be fine if they are injured. I am afraid that Prime Minister Jiang and Zhengshi will take the opportunity to make efforts and directly mobilize him to retire and return home.

So Liu Dan must die! When Liu Dan dies, the authenticity of the account book can be argued again.

Prime Minister Zhang felt in a mess and had almost no energy to listen to the Minister of Rites taking the lead in accusing the prince of being unfilial and inappropriate.

Others seem to Prime Minister Zhang just worry. It is normal to worry about this situation. His old opponent Prime Minister Jiang did not notice Prime Minister Zhang's abnormality because he was far away.

The third prince shook his head and rolled and rushed to the prince.

Jiang Zhengshi stood up in a hurry, trying to stop the prince from doing anything to the third prince, but he froze as soon as he took a step.

"Brother of the Great Emperor, I won't believe a word of what my father said just now."

The third prince burst into tears, and the prince was stunned for a moment before remembering Lu Zhang's previous provocation.

"Gu didn't take it seriously at all. Come and send the third prince back."

"No, brother, I won't leave!"
