Chapter 100 The sixth prince's concern
Today is the monthly grand court meeting.

Officials, big and small, and princes are all here to hear what happened this month.

According to common sense, it is not necessary for all the princes to arrive.

However, no matter how strict the rules are, the imperial power cannot be defeated. The emperor said that every prince must participate, that is to say, everyone will come.

The ministers also knew that the emperor was going to choose the best among several princes, and doing so was also leveling the gap between several princes.

A prince who often appeared in front of ministers and an unknown prince naturally received different support.

Even if the second prince is in the limelight, there are still some ministers who support the other princes.

After all, everyone knows that the rewards brought by icing on the cake and giving charcoal in a timely manner are different.

As long as the emperor hasn't confirmed who the prince is for a day, the ministers will never stop standing in line.

Accompanied by the sharp voice of the eunuch in the palace, all the ministers and princes had already stood up, and an old figure moved slowly, and was supported by the eunuch to sit on the dragon chair.

Long live my emperor!

Accompanied by a neat shout, today's court meeting officially began.

The ministers of Xinhui will report where there is auspiciousness in various parts of the country, how many places have good weather, and how many places the people are grateful for the emperor's kindness, and how much money they have given to the court.

Then the minister in charge of foreign affairs said that the envoys of some country came to show their favor again, and some small country suffered natural disasters and people, and asked for assistance from this dynasty.

In the end, several generals came forward, expressing that the morale of the trained army was high, and the people at the border all felt the emperor's majestic power, which shocked the world.

This kind of process will happen every time such a big court meeting.

After all, this kind of conference has the most officials, and what can be expressed are all good words.

Even if there is a severe drought across the country and no crops are harvested, it should be said at the Dachao meeting that the common people eat so much that they can't even tie their clothes on the road.

As for whether it is hot or sustained, no one will care about these.

Because the Great Court Meeting is for all officials to see, and it is also for the common people to listen to. The real important things are discussed in ordinary small meetings.

After all the officials went through the entire process as usual, it was the turn of several princes to speak in turn, telling what they had learned recently, or what good deeds they had done for the court.

With several nods from the emperor, this meeting is over.

The officials left the arena one after another, leaving only a few princes and the emperor to chat about some things alone.

Wait until all officials are gone.

Only then did the aging figure sitting on the dragon chair speak slowly:
"A few days ago."

"On the street outside the Second Prince's Mansion, more than [-] people died overnight."

"How is this going."

The old emperor's voice was not loud, but it directly made all the princes look up.

They didn't expect that they had done things so carefully, and even cleaned up the corpse as quickly as possible, so the old emperor could still know it clearly.

Since the second prince was mentioned in the matter just mentioned, the second prince will naturally stand up and answer:
"The cause of this matter is that there was a disturbance caused by a so-called strange person in the quack, which caused some unknown Xiaoxiao to make a big fuss over it."

The second prince wanted to continue talking, but the emperor stopped him with a slight raise of his hand.

"Don't let Xiaoxiao's generation wantonly cause chaos in the imperial city."

"You guys who are brothers and sisters should also watch it."

"Speaking of which, the moat will be repaired recently, and the money from the treasury will be sent to the frontiers. You just go and find a way to get some money."

"That's it, let's go"

After the old emperor finished speaking, the eunuchs beside him quickly stepped forward to help him, and helped the old emperor leave the hall bit by bit.

It was only when the old emperor was gone that the other princes dared to raise their heads.

They glanced at each other, and there was nothing to say to each other.

As a prince, he naturally wanted to figure out what the old emperor meant.

No one present is a fool.

The old emperor had just made his words clear enough.

The old emperor knew all about what they did, but the old emperor looked down on the method of relying on strange people directly.

There is a sentence in the middle, which is an extra reminder to the second prince.

The so-called elder brother and younger brother are all concerned, which means that all the princes have a share, and no one can escape.

Now that the emperor had left, the few princes didn't bother to put on a show anymore, they all left without even looking at others.

After the sixth prince left the palace, he was a little worried.

He didn't expect that he was also included in the emperor's roll call. Could it be that the power he secretly cultivated had already been known by the emperor?

Or maybe the emperor just knew the actions of most of the princes and was too lazy to pick him out alone?

Neither of which is likely to be a good thing.

But what caught the sixth prince's attention the most was the last sentence the old emperor said.

Let a few princes make money.

As a prince, the only way to make money on the bright side is to rely on his own fiefdom.

And the fiefdoms are given only when the emperor nods. Among the several princes, only the second prince has the fiefdom.

It seems that it is indeed partial to the second prince, but it can also give other princes more room to play.

If the other princes can get more money, they will naturally appear to be more brilliant than the powerful second prince.

But the gap in repairing the moat of the imperial city is not a few thousand taels of silver.

It is normal to spend a few 10 taels of silver casually.

Even if the princes have great abilities, they can't raise so much money in a short time.

Then you can only find a way to borrow it.

And in the imperial city, there is only one person who has the strength to lend so much money in such a short period of time.

Li Momei.

From this point of view, it seems that the emperor himself already knew what the blind fortune-teller was talking about.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone full circle, and suddenly brought up Li Momei in such a cryptic way.

The sixth prince just felt sad because of the close relationship between Li Momei and that uncle.

Fortunately, Li Momei said that she was sick.

Immediately afterwards, he was troubled by the attention of other princes who he had loved so much all these years.

But it’s okay, the blind fortune teller didn’t know where he died in the end, and no one can continue to prove it, so it can be regarded as death without proof.

But now the emperor has already pointed it out in this way, even if only he can think of it now, other princes will also think of whom to borrow money with the help of their counselors.

And Li Momei's money did not come from the wind.

If one prince suddenly lends so much money, the other princes will have to wait for time if they want to borrow again.

This also seemed to be the key to the emperor's vague test of the reaction speed of the princes.

Think of this layer.

The sixth prince left the palace gate quickly and prepared to go to Li Momei's house.
