Chapter 405

Meng Nan smiled lightly: "I'm just curious, look at today's style, King Xiao already has a lot of followers in the court, and he has a lot of troops in his hands, and other princes can't compare with him. If that's the case, why not just seal it up? He's a prince? So that other princes can die."

Meng Yuande sighed lightly and said, "The world only thinks that the emperor loves the pure concubine, is promoted to empress, and uses King Xiao so much that it can be of great use. In fact, in the heart of the emperor, there is only King Jin, otherwise, relying on With King Xiao’s current power, why didn’t the emperor push the boat along the way, and simply named him the crown prince?”

Meng Nan was puzzled: "Since the emperor is interested in King Jin, why did he send King Jin out of the palace by urinating? Why did he let him fight in the battlefield when he was young? In the end, he ended up like this!"

Meng Yuande sighed again: "You don't understand, the emperor was well-intentioned and sent the King of Jin away from the palace, so that he could avoid the bloody and cruel battles in the imperial court, and at the same time let him learn the skills of self-protection, lest Unable to stand in the slaughter of his brothers, sending him to the battlefield is to let him hone more and gain his own powerful strength."

"King Jin has done a good job. In the past seven years, he has made great achievements on the battlefield in the west, and the three armies are all unconvinced. Although the emperor doesn't say it, he often mentions the achievements of King Jin in the court. You can't hide your joy and pride, but you can't hide it, civil and military officials, which one doesn't know?"

"It's a pity, it's a pity--" Meng Yuande's words are a pity, and they are truly regrettable. He knows his father's intentions and wants to help the King of Jin ascend to the throne. This is not only his father's wish, but also the emperor's wish.

It is a pity that God did not wish.

Meng Nan asked again: "That said, the King of Jin is gone after all. Among the princes today, the most suitable candidate is probably King Xiao. Even we can understand it. Would the emperor not understand? Why did the emperor refuse to make King Xiao the crown prince?"

Meng Yuande was silent for a while, and finally said slowly: "I shouldn't have said this originally, but since you have returned to Beijing, the rise and fall of the Meng family will be handed over to you in the future, and some things should also be in your hands. let you understand."

"You also know that your grandfather and the emperor are not only ordinary monarchs and ministers, but also the emperor's teacher. They almost have nothing to say between them. About this matter, your grandfather also mentioned it to me."

Meng Yuande suddenly said in a low voice: "Although the emperor made Concubine Chun the queen, he only made King Xiao the prince, and he didn't mention the canonization of the crown prince. , the emperor always only wanted to leave it to the King of Jin."

Meng Nan's expression changed slightly: "So, it is very likely that King Jin is still alive?"

Meng Yuande shook his head: "It's hard to say. The disappearance of King Jin is very strange, and his life and death are unpredictable. However, if he is still alive, why hasn't he shown up for three years? I'm afraid he won't be able to come back."

This is also the reason why he decided to move closer to King Xiao. Since King Jin can't come back, then King Xiao will be the prince sooner or later. Even if the emperor is not canonized, it will not hinder his great cause.

Hu Feng's face kept popping up in Meng Nan's mind. Is there any connection between Hu Feng and King Jin?

Huangtuo Village is located in the northwest and is only a hundred miles away from the border battlefield. Is all this a coincidence?

"You're a little unusual today, but you're hiding something from me?" Meng Yuande suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Meng Nan.

Meng Nan laughed dryly: "I have something to hide from you, don't you know everything about my actions?"
