Chapter 958
958 I’m not dead yet
Li Shan also told the third Prince that in her dream, noble consort Lin and the seventh Prince would deal with him, and that the ice cellar incident was planned by noble consort Lin.
As a Prince, he naturally knew what this meant.
Therefore, when Li Shan told the third Prince that the heir of Duke Zhengguo’s mansion, Lu Zheng, was not dead and that Lu Zheng and Gu shouxin would join the seventh Prince in the future, the third Prince had no doubts at all.
Li Shan also said that the Emperor especially liked the Gu family and could use this opportunity to get rid of the Gu family. Of course, even if he couldn’t get rid of them, he couldn’t let the Gu family stay in the capital.
Li Shan did not know where Lu Zheng had gone. She guessed that Lu Zheng might have transported the seeds to Jiangnan or to Thailand. She asked the third Prince to keep an eye on Lu Zheng.
She even drew a portrait of Lu Zheng and asked the third Prince to look for him in secret. It would be best if he could kill Lu Zheng before he joined the Lin family.
She also told the third Prince about her deal with the country guarding Duke’s wife, Lin Shi. She did not hide the fact that Lin Shi had sent people to kill Lu Zheng.
The third Prince sent people to investigate and found out.
Not only that, in the past two days, the third Prince had also found a few capable people, and his trust in Li Shan grew.
Some of the rumors among the common people were from the qu Emperor’s residence, while others were fueled by the third Prince.
……
When no one jumped out, the Emperor said, ” “Fuquan, go, have someone place Ye Wei’s body at the palace gate and ask ten folk doctors to examine how Ye Wei died! Then, I’ll go to the Imperial Manor and call a few people from the Zhou family. I’ll go to the palace gate and have a chat with the commoners about how much grain Gu Xin and her sister can produce! In the future, if they don’t want to eat it, they can sign their names and I’ll fulfill their wishes! As for King Qu’s residence, ha, go to the dungeon and bring the spies we caught from kun city two days ago to the front of the palace. Ask old general Peng to tell everyone about how many soldiers of our great Zhou died last month because King Qu’s men colluded with the langge Kingdom and left out the border defense map. Ask them if any of these soldiers have their relatives?”
The third Prince stood out and said,”father!” King qu, Qianqian.”
The Emperor glared at the third Prince and patted the Dragon Throne. “What’s wrong? You can’t wait to sit here?”
The third Prince knelt down in fear,”your son did not mean it that way, your son is disgruntled.”
The Emperor,”then shut up!” As long as I’m alive, you will never have the chance to teach me!”
The third Prince wiped the sweat from his forehead and knelt down, not daring to get up.
The seventh Prince looked at the third Prince with disdain and didn’t say anything.
The Emperor said, ” pass on my decree. The qu Emperor’s residence is planning a rebellion. This is both a National and a family matter. I have decided that the qu Emperor’s residence will be killed without mercy for colluding with the enemy and betraying the country! From now on, send him to the downtown area and execute him in public!”
The Minister of Works knelt down and pleaded,”Your Majesty, please reconsider!” His Highness King qu has a death-exemption medallion that the ancestral Emperor had bestowed upon him!”
The Emperor glared at the Minister of Works. this old man, you’re the only one in the world who knows about this. You thought you were on my side when you didn’t stand out just now.
The third Prince’s eyes brightened. As expected, what Shan ‘er said was true. King qu had a death-exemption medallion, which was bestowed by the founding Emperor. It was also the Minister of Works, Lord Liu, who had stood up and suggested it.
Even he didn’t know about this. Shan ‘er’s dreams really had the ability to predict the future.
The third Prince’s heart was set. Imperial father, if I may be so bold as to ask Imperial father to spare the lives of King Qu’s residence. We are of the same root. Imperial father can remove the title and let King Qu’s family become commoners. Imperial grandfather also said to rule the country with benevolence!”
“Third Prince is wise!” Many ministers exclaimed in unison.
The Emperor laughed in anger,”are you trying to force me to abdicate?” I haven’t died yet!”
“This subject doesn’t dare!”
“Your son doesn’t dare!”
