Chapter 77(2/2)
"Your Highness, I heard that you punished the two ministers just now?" Concubine Zhao said.
"This is a major event in the court. Emperor Taizu once issued an order that the concubines in the harem must not interfere in the government affairs. Concubine Zhao, have you forgotten Taizu's order?" Liu Xiong asked back after glanced at Concubine Zhao.
Concubine Zhao bit her lower lip, "Of course I dare not interfere in the government affairs, I just want to give you some advice to the prince.
Now the emperor is in bad health and people are uneasy. If you punish the ministers at this time, I am afraid that the ministers will be frightened and will be detrimental to the political situation." "Those corrupt officials are a disaster for the country, and if they do not punish them severely, they will be in endless troubles.
How could I be afraid of the ministers if I rule the country according to law?” Liu Xiong retorted.
"Since the prince thinks so, the concubine has nothing to say. I hope the prince will manage the government properly."
After Zhao Fei finished speaking, a hint of anger flashed through her eyes, and she turned around and left with several maids.
Looking at Concubine Zhao's cold back, Haotian said to Liu Xiong: "This Concubine Zhao is indeed not a kind person."
"When Concubine Zhao saw my father, she would pretend to be obedient, but only showed a sinister face when facing others.
Fortunately, her son is unworthy, otherwise my father might have been deceived by her and made his son the throne continue."
Liu Xiong said.
Haotian sighed: "If such a woman is in power, I don't know how many people will be harmed by her."
Liu Xiong nodded, "I must not let her take power, but this Concubine Zhao is not easy to deal with with with the help of the Du family." "Don't worry! I will fight side by side with you." Haotian said.
Liu Xiong looked at Haotian gratefully, "Okay! We brothers share blessings together, and we should share blessings together."
Then Liu Xiong went to visit his mother, and left the palace with Haotian after coming out.
On the way, Haotian asked, "Crown Prince, how is the emperor's condition?"
Liu Xiong shook his head gently, "The imperial physician said that his father's condition was not optimistic."
"Prince, you must be prepared to deal with changes in the situation." Haotian said after thinking about it.
"Yeah! I understand." Liu Xiong nodded in agreement.
