Chapter 818 The Current Situation Is Turbulent

"Your Highness, the current situation..."

In the room, a guest official stood beside the eighth prince, and his eyebrows were quite sad.

Nowadays, the situation of the emperor is unknown. Li Yuanhong controls the government and does not know what Li Yuanhong will do next. The current situation in the court is quite complicated. The second prince and the third prince must be unwilling to accept it. Will there be any internal struggles at that time. Don't know either.

The Eighth Prince actually knew that the situation is quite complicated, and he didn't know what happened, but he thought that the elder brother would not attack his father, but if not, why didn't the elder brother let them see his father. Emperor.

But these are still small things. In the past few days, he has always thought of someone, that is, Zhang Zhiwen, who once met in the palace. The impression was so deep that he could remember it for a lifetime if he took a look.

That transcendent aura, that indifferent demeanor, and the far-reaching feeling in his eyes that seemed to see through everything were almost something that Li Ting had never seen in his life. He had never seen anyone with such a strange and unique person. Extraordinary temperament.

Even Li Ting couldn't help but kneel down and worship. You must know that he is a prince. In this world, except for his father and mother, the Empress Dowager can make him kneel down and worship. That's impossible for the rest of the people. , the rest of them looked up to him.

But he developed this kind of kneeling in front of Zhang Zhiwen. How could he forget Zhang Zhiwen's voice and appearance? It was almost impossible.

Even though such a major thing happened in the Dayan Dynasty, he was still thinking more about Zhang Zhiwen in his heart. It seemed that he felt that Zhang Zhiwen might be an extremely important figure to him in his life.

Then, the guest official said something and asked Li Ting, but Li Ting seemed to have not heard it, and was still distracted.

The guest official thought Li Ting was worried about the situation that would happen next, so he couldn't say much, and another guest official came over and said, "Your Highness, in fact, this martial arts incident is still not true. Cancel? ”

As soon as these words were said, Li Ting suddenly came to his senses. Yes, the martial arts affairs were not over, and the father was not dead either. Unless the father personally issued an oral order to cancel the martial arts competition, otherwise This martial arts competition will continue.

But how to continue this martial arts competition? Then Li Yuanhong would definitely not agree to continue, and it seemed that there was no need for him to continue.

Now, Li Yuanhong has ascended the throne. Although this matter has not been recognized by other princes, since something happened, it means that the martial arts competition can be cancelled. There is no need for existence. The prince has ascended the throne, so what else can I choose. Crown Lord?

But the problem is that the emperor is not dead yet. Why can't he continue to choose the prince if he ascends the throne in a wrong way?

This is at least for the second and third princes. Therefore, they will definitely find ways to make trouble. It is absolutely impossible to just watch the prince succeed to the throne. This is not the result they hope to see.

They have worked hard for so many years and are in great power. If they really want to compete with the prince for the throne, they cannot fight.

Especially the second prince, now all the power in the military is in his hands. He also openly threatened that he would not hand over military power without his father's oral instructions. The third prince also threatened that if Without the oral instructions from the father and emperor himself, he would not hand over economic power.

These two people seemed to not admit that the prince succeeded to the throne at all. They even came to the palace to see their father. After being rejected, they left angrily and ignored the prince Li Yuanhong at all.

Of course, whether it is the second prince or the third prince, they all have power in their hands. They can not care about the prince's threat. Besides, what else can the prince threaten them? Is it said that the second prince is going to deprive him of his military power? That is absolutely impossible. The generals in the army are all on the side of the second prince, and it is impossible for the prince to take away the military power of the second prince.

That took away the third prince's economic power? That's even more impossible. These merchants are all standing on the side of the third prince. Even if the prince Li Yuanhong comes, he still needs to consider it. These merchants also have a lot of private soldiers. If they have money, it's definitely impossible for them to have no one. The armed forces, these armed forces are not much inferior to the second prince when they gather together.

On the other hand, Crown Prince Li Yuanhong, who is the civil servant of the court, supports him, and thinks he is orthodox, and the Grand Secretary of the State and the National Teacher are supporting him. This is a traditional force. These forces usually look very powerful, such as the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel. What's more, but when it comes to this point, these civil servants are just literati with no power to tie a chicken.

What other waves can these people make? It is nothing more than that the crown prince is nominally the crown prince, and it is not completely unreasonable to take over the throne. Although the second prince and the third prince are extremely dissatisfied, they are not openly denounced Li Yuanhong.

After all, the emperor fell ill, and the Great Yan Dynasty could not be without a monarch for a day. Then the Crown Prince Li Yuanhong temporarily managed the government affairs. This is reasonable, and Li Yuanhong said that the emperor issued an order to inherit the throne for him. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is impossible.

Of course, Li Yuanhong is not without armed forces. The Imperial Guard is his armed force. Even if the second prince and the third prince want to raise an army to condemn it, it will have to pay a great price, and it may not even work.

However, this matter depends on whether the two princes have taken any action. Therefore, Li Ting asked, "Is there any movement in the palace?"

I want to ask if there are any signs of dispatching troops in the palace. If so, it means that Li Yuanhong is going to confront the second prince head-on. If not, it would be fine, and the situation would not be out of control.

You know, he is the eighth prince, following the fourth prince, and belongs to a neutral camp, but once the battle for imperial power is involved, no one can avoid being involved. It is not okay to not want to stand in the side at that time, then Li Ting does not want to stand in the side of the crown prince. He always I think the prince's mind is not right, and he doesn't like the second prince, which means he doesn't like the second brother. The second brother is a man who has no brains and is just a reckless man.

As for the third brother, he disliked even more. He was so happy that he was fond of success and was only profit-oriented. Then how could he manage the world? At that time, he would inevitably be greedy and the people would live in poverty.

If so, he felt that it would be better to stand on the side of the Fourth Prince, that is, the Fourth Brother. The Fourth Brother is loyal, honest and upright. Although he has no talent, he can at least still be able to defend the Great Yan Dynasty. .

So, if you want to talk about this pattern and vision, Li Ting must be the most powerful. Unfortunately, the emperor has not yet deeply understood the power of this son. The eighth prince has a very good pattern, and it depends on the problem. Looking at the problem from the perspective of the royal family, although I want to protect myself, I still consider the prosperity and long-term peace of the royal family in my heart.

"Your Highness, there is no change in the palace. It's just that Bai Feiyan has gone there and it seems that she hasn't come out yet!"

This guest official should have had a slut in the palace and was very familiar with what happened in the palace. Li Ting couldn't help but be surprised after hearing this.

"Bai Feiyan? She is here too?"

He thought Bai Feiyan should still be in the middle sword path or in the Bai Mansion, but Bai Feiyan actually went to see Li Yuanhong directly.

"Yes, because her master is still in the palace and her life and death are unknown, she probably was worried about this, so she went straight to find the prince."

The guest officials replied this, but it could be seen that he had a look of admiration in his eyes. It was obvious that anyone who went to find Li Yuanhong at this time was extremely sensitive. If you were not good, Li Yuanhong just turned against him, and even Start killing.

You should know that Li Yuanhong's throne was unstable at this time, and he was extremely vigilant when he was a little disturbed. Of course, this is the view of others, including the view of this guest official. In fact, Li Yuanhong was not worried about these things at all.

He had other plans, but everyone didn't know that Li Yuanhong had any other plans. Naturally, he would think that Li Yuanhong is now full of soldiers, and Bai Feiyan went to find Li Yuanhong at this time, which must be for her master.

"And there is this?"

Li Ting was even more surprised. He was also extremely surprised. Bai Feiyan was indeed brave enough.

"But in my opinion, this matter is probably not a result..."

The guest official was only halfway through his words, and someone came outside. Obviously, another guest official had arrived. After this person came in, he hurriedly said to Li Ting: "Your Highness, something is not good, the prince wants to marry the Bai family. , I want to make Bai Feiyan the queen! ”

"What did you say!"

Li Ting was shocked. He had never expected that Li Yuanhong would have any intention of marrying his wife at this time. When he was the queen, he always had to wait until the emperor died, right?

But Li Yuanhong couldn't hold back so much. He was too brave, right?

However, Li Ting quickly calmed down. He was not as impetuous as others. As the eighth prince, he was often on the edge. Most princes don’t care much about his existence, and because he is calm and will not be surprised. One moment.

Therefore, he asked, "What did the Bai family say about this?"

"Your Highness, the prince is actually just engaged. If you inform the Bai family, the Bai family can only accept the order."

When this guest official said this, he was a little helpless.

In fact, this incident has the greatest impact on the second prince. You should know that the Bai family is the most important existence in the army.

"What do you say in the second brother?"

Li Ting is worthy of being smart and knows that he will ask about the progress of this matter at once.

The guest official also looked at Li Ting with admiration, and then said, "There is no news about the second prince at the moment, and it seems that the second prince is not leaving."

Li Ting didn't know what was going on at this moment. Logically speaking, this matter was a big deal. Once the Bai family relied on Li Yuanhong and defected to Li Yuanhong and stood on Li Yuanhong's side, the second prince's military power would be in danger.

Once the second prince's military power is taken away, the next step is to deal with the third prince, which is a problem.

It seems that Prince Li Yuanhong did nothing, he grasped the most important part at once, that is, military power. Once he has military power, the next thing will be easier to deal with, and he can easily deal with other things. Prince, whoever is dissatisfied with it, then just put a crime on his own.

In fact, even if the prince ascended the throne and became the new emperor, then Li Ting did not have much concern. At most, he felt that Prince Li Yuanhong was not upright and that the people in the world would be unlucky. For him, there was nothing else, and there was no other way. The Great Yan Dynasty may be unsustainable.

Li Yuanhong did a lot of ridiculous things, and the country of Dayan is likely to be destroyed in his hands. At that time, the world will inevitably be in chaos. Then he just couldn't bear it. On the one hand, he was worried about the country of the Li royal family. On the one hand, it is also for the sake of the dawn of the world.

But now, if Li Yuanhong succeeds with one blow, he may be in a state of unstoppable momentum, and the situation will basically be beyond his control.

But he still hopes that the court will be stable and that the father can recover safely. When the father recovers, the court may be stable. As for whether Li Yuanhong will harm his father, Li Ting thinks this is unlikely. Even if Li Yuanhong was unforgivable, he would not dare to do such a thing.

But Li Yuanhong wanted to seize power and prevent others from seeing his father, which was really hateful.

"What did the fourth brother say?"

Li Ting turned around and asked again. He still wanted to know what the fourth brother was thinking, which was also very important.

"The Fourth Prince has nothing to say. He seems to have gone to the western suburbs to escape the summer heat."

The guest official clearly showed disappointment in his eyes. In the crisis of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Fourth Prince actually had some intention to go on a trip. This was simply an ignorant approach.

But Li Ting breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that the Fourth Brother's move was wise. As long as he left the imperial city, he would leave this place of right and wrong. Otherwise, he would be fine if he was the prince in the future. Well, at that time, all forces will fight for life and death, and the fourth prince, together with him, Li Ting, will be involved.

Once you are implicated, you can't get away if you want to. You must stand and participate. How fierce the battle for imperial power is, it is normal for blood to splatter on the spot.

The fourth brother ran away at this time. This is right. Whatever he said to go to escape the summer heat is just an excuse, and that is to avoid this dispute.

But can you really leave? Can it really be avoided?

In fact, this guest official didn't know the truth. Although the imperial guards in the palace were controlled by Li Yuanhong, the entire defensive force of Dayan City was in the hands of the second prince. The second prince had long been blocked, so the fourth prince's carriage had just been When he arrived at the city gate, he asked the second prince's men to stop him.

"What do you mean? Your Highness can't do it if you want to travel?"

The housekeeper in the royal palace was extremely dissatisfied with the military leader. The military leader was too brave and even dared to stop the Fourth Prince's carriage. That was simply a move that was better!

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Fourth Prince. This is what Your Highness means. Let your subordinates and others guard the city gate. The situation is turbulent at the moment, and no one in the palace can leave Dayan City!"

"presumptuous!"

The housekeeper was so angry, but the other party was tepid, because this was a military place, so it was no one else's turn to talk to him. Let alone the fourth prince, even if the prince came, it was the same. This was the sphere of influence of the second prince. !
