Song Gexing

Chapter 53 The verbal battle with Yushitai

All the officials onlookers were in an uproar, but this is true, the prince is indeed the emperor, and the ministers are indeed the emperor's henchmen, otherwise why do you say that you are helping the emperor to govern the country.

If you are not one of our own, no one needs your help, but what Zhao Fang said changed it.

Qian Mingyi's face turned red, but he didn't know how to argue with him. He could only scold himself for being a bitch. Why did he say that King Wei was the crown prince, when the emperor had not issued the decree yet.

"His Royal Highness, I remember that you objected to your heir apparent in the morning, why do you agree now?"

"I thought about it and naturally agreed. I have your support."

As soon as Wang Gongchen finished his question, Zhao Fang immediately answered quickly without any hesitation, and even got them involved.

This time it’s not shit, it’s shit, isn’t it because you supported me to be the crown prince that I agreed to it? This further confirms that you are my party members.

At this time, Wang Gongchen also blushed and clenched his fists. After a long while, he said: "Even if I and Qian Yushi are the same, why is Xia Xianggong among the people who King Wei just reported?"

"Hey! It was a slip of the tongue. I'm dizzy. The old man isn't here. Why should I involve him?"

Only then did Zhao Fang remember that he had forgotten to be rigorous in his anger. Xia Song did not say that he was the crown prince.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said grandly: "What, Minister Xia did not admit that I am the crown prince. He is my father's party member and not mine. I admit this mistake."

He acted like he knew he was wrong and corrected it, but Wang Gongchen and others were mad. Isn't this a rogue, but they just couldn't help it.

Even if Zhao Fang made a mistake and had to be punished, it was not a big deal. Being punished was insignificant. The accusation that he and others were framed was a big deal.

Fortunately, at this time, the excitement outside spread to the palace, and Zhao Zhen hurriedly asked Lu Shouqin to come out in person, bring the relevant people in, and go to Chongzheng Hall to deal with it face to face.

"Brother, what are you talking about? As a prince, you must set an example, and you must set an example for your younger brothers."

Not only the ministers were stunned by these words, but also Zhao Fang. This was the first time that Zhao Zhen admitted that he was the crown prince. This was not what the emperor should say now.

"His Majesty!"

Zhao Zhen waved his hand, interrupted Yan Shu, looked at Zhao Fang and said, "Let's deal with this matter first, brother, tell me, why are you acting like a rascal outside?"

When it came to business, Zhao Fang became more serious now. He raised his hands and said in an upright manner: "My son is indeed playing rogue, but I am learning from them. Bao Xiren was clearly recommended by my son. My father was present for this matter, but my son is here." I heard that they used disbelief as an excuse to falsely accuse Privy Han. If they can go rogue, why can't they?"

These words made Wang Gongchen and others blush. It turned out that the root cause was on their own side, and they were treating him in his own way.

Yan Shu was not present at the time. After hearing this, he looked at Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen understood what he meant and nodded slightly: "Brother is right. Bao Qing was indeed recommended by him, but Han Qing was not the only one impeached by Wang Qing and others." , I wanted to let it dry before dealing with it, but I didn’t expect him to do this.”

As he spoke, he glanced at his son quietly, and Zhao Fang understood at a glance that his father had a problem, and he was paranoid, worried that his cronies would threaten his status.

After pouting secretly, he decided to give his father a hard blow. He glanced at everyone present and said to Zhao Zhen with a smile: "Dad, why don't you abdicate the throne? Last year, didn't you say you wanted to be the Supreme Emperor and let your son take the lead? Son I figured it out, now I’ll be the emperor.”

With a "pop" sound, Yan Shu spurted out a mouthful of water, coughed violently, looked at Zhao Fang with sorrowful eyes, and scolded him for not letting him drink water.

Then Wang Gongchen and others were stunned, while Fu Bi, Wang Yaochen and others opened their mouths like fish dying of thirst.

Zhao Zhen was also stunned. It took him a long time to take a deep breath and calm down. He understood that his son was going to cause trouble again and glared at him angrily. "Brother, don't say anything. Dad is willing. Are you really willing? Don't complain then..."

"Your Majesty, no! No, Your Majesty..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qian Mingyi screamed like a little hen that had been insulted, and his hair became thick and heavy.

Wang Gongchen was much calmer than him. He pulled him and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up! The official is joking with King Wei, so you should take it seriously."

Qian Mingyi turned around and said anxiously: "But what if?"

"No chance!"

Qian Mingyi was still unwilling to be held back by Wang Gongchen's angry glare. He looked up and saw Zhao Fang looking at him with a half-smile but not a smile. He was immediately embarrassed and became embarrassed.

He couldn't help but said angrily: "The King of Wei is underage, why is he so anxious to ascend the throne?"

These words made Zhao Zhen angry, and he cursed this shameless bastard in his heart, "You don't know that my son is causing trouble, you are just afraid that he won't cause trouble, right?"

Zhao Fangcai ignored his father's thoughts and laughed when he heard this question: "Xiao Wang is eager to ascend the throne, naturally because the people you impeach are all my party members. I don't worry about my cronies. They are my people to begin with. Why?" Be worried."

As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen was slightly shocked, and he immediately realized that his little thoughts had been seen through by his son.

Qian Mingyi suddenly changed his expression, pointed at him and shouted: "How dare you, King Wei! This is in front of the king, how dare you talk so wildly and form a faction, and how dare you harm your majesty!"

Now Comrade Lao Qian's true nature as a censor was fully revealed, and he was not afraid of the emperor or the prince at all. However, the question he asked was so poor that it directly made Zhao Zhen lose his favor.

Zhao Fang was not annoyed at all. He looked at him and asked with a smile: "Didn't you just say that? Let Your Majesty go and become the Supreme Emperor. I didn't make this up. Is there anyone who witnessed it when I said this?"

"you……"

"That's enough Qian Zifei!"

Wang Gongchen couldn't bear it anymore. After Qian Mingyi stopped shouting, he raised his hands to Zhao Fang and said, "Does the King of Wei know the dangers of cronies?"

Seeing his solemn look, Zhao Fang corrected his attitude, raised his hands and returned the greeting: "Xiao Wang is well aware of the harm caused by cronyism. The conflict between Niu and Li in the Tang Dynasty is not far away, but does Wang Zhongcheng know the real inside story of the party struggle?"

He changed hands and defeated the opponent, and everyone else watched the two of them, watching them argue.

Wang Gongchen's complexion changed slightly, he hesitated and gritted his teeth and replied: "The dispute between cattle and plums seems to have different political opinions, but it is actually a dispute between the aristocratic family and the common people."

"Very good, it's good that Wang Zhongcheng didn't hide it."

Zhao Fang first praised him and then asked again: "Then Xiao Wang asked you, is the dispute between you and Fan Xianggong just a matter of different political opinions? I remember that Wang Zhongcheng was the number one scholar. To be honest, don't slander Confucius. The battle between gentlemen."

Wang Gongchen's face suddenly turned red, his lips trembled, his anger and unwillingness slowly turned into shame, and he hesitated to speak.

When Zhao Fang saw it, he said sternly: "The minister's money, the system of favors, these all hit you where it hurts. You are not serving the country and the people, but your own interests. The so-called cronies are just sharp knives to attack the other party, so Xiao Wang must not tolerate."
