Chapter 287 Insidious Damage
  The emperor was furious, and all the courtiers in the hall knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe heavily.

As someone who angered the emperor, Song Hongkai did not back down: "Your Majesty, every aristocratic family has its own way of managing the family. They train the daughters of aristocratic families and standardize their etiquette. They are all about loyalty and chastity."

"Even if I risk beheading today, I have to analyze the current situation to the emperor. If the emperor insists on marrying the eldest daughter of the Xie family as the concubine of Prince Liang, I am afraid that tomorrow... I will jump off the high wall. The person is this woman."

"It's not too late to make amends at this time."

Emperor Jing Ren was angry, but he still had some brains. He probably understood what Song Hongkai meant.

Giving the eldest daughter of the Xie family to a man who had molested her would be regarded as a shame by the daughter of the aristocratic family, and the aristocratic families would regard it as the royal family testing their bottom line.

However, this marriage must be given, but it is absolutely impossible to give the eldest daughter of the Xie family to the King of Liang, but it is also impossible to give the eldest daughter of the Xie family to a person with a lower status than the King of Liang.

Not only did he want to grant a marriage, but he also wanted to help the eldest daughter of the Xie family choose someone with a higher status than King Liang and who had not yet married his legitimate wife to be the main wife.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jing Ren's eyelids twitched.

The only person with a higher status than King Liang, after him as the emperor, is the prince.

Emperor Jing Ren seemed to understand something in his mind in an instant. He stood up quickly and stared at Gu Changning who was standing aside with a gloomy look.

Okay, okay, the prince is really a master of calculations. He treats the aristocratic families as knives and plays tricks on everyone. It turns out that his ultimate goal is to marry the daughter of the Xie family.

Is he really crazy?

He knew that the eldest daughter of the Xie family had just reconciled with the Yongning Marquis Mansion, and a divorced wife was worth all his efforts.

After Emperor Jing Ren glared at the prince, he turned around and left the palace, leaving behind all the courtiers in the palace.

Gu Changning knew that he was just one step away. He straightened his sleeves and followed to Qianqing Hall.

……

Gu Changning had just stepped into the Qianqing Palace.

An inkstone hit him.

He moved slightly and avoided the inkstone, which hit Jiang Huai behind him.

Jiang Huai knelt down with a plop and picked up the inkstone that fell into two parts with both hands. Even if it was injured, he could not deal with his injury, but handed the inkstone to Eunuch Gao first.

Now Eunuch Gao also looks worried.

"Prince, you are very kind."

"I learned from my father." "You..." Emperor Jing Ren sat down on the dragon chair.

Empress Xiao was the one who Emperor Jing Ren tried so hard to snatch away from others and took away the wife of a minister. How could she blame him?

Gu Changning said: "Father, I am here to help my father solve the problem, not to make him angry."

Emperor Jing Ren: "..."

"So many lives were lost just to allow the eldest daughter of the Xie family to enter the East Palace? She is already a second wife. Ask the ministers in the court if they agree."

The courtiers all wanted to send their daughters to the East Palace. When he selected Gu Changning's draft quota for the East Palace, he basically ignored Xie Jinyun.

The prince, however, rushed to buy second-hand goods that others did not want.

Gu Changning's handsome face darkened: "Father, the marriage between the eldest daughter of the Xie family and the deserter Song Qian is the result of your decree to tell the world that the marriage is invalid, so how can there be a second marriage?"

"Are you really stupid or are you pretending?" He was just trying to save face for the eldest son Xie. Besides, Song Qian's situation was too bad, so he thought of helping the Xie family. Although the imperial edict stated that the marriage was invalid, the Xie family After all, the daughter married into the Yongning Hou Mansion and stayed there for seven years.

Everyone outside knows this.

"My son, I know. It turns out that my father's imperial edict is a piece of waste paper."

"Presumptuous." Emperor Jing Ren grabbed another inkstone and was about to smash it out when Gu Changning said lightly: "Didn't my father always want to eradicate the cancer in the family?"

Emperor Jing Ren paused.

This is indeed the case.

"Those who jumped to death on the tower today, don't you think that my father should have died?"

The prince's words made Emperor Jing Ren a lot less angry.

"Also, when King Liang went to the Xie family to offer incense, he indeed molested the eldest daughter of the Xie family in public. His sons and ministers just made him angry. Could it be that just because of this anger, we can deny the fact that King Liang offended the family?"

Emperor Jing Ren: "..."

"The son and minister used this fire to get rid of his father's troubles. The father could take this opportunity to support new nobles and replace the factions in the court. The son and minister also achieved their wishes. In the end, the battle between the family and the imperial power was extinguished. , isn’t it a win-win situation for you and me?”

Emperor Jing Ren suddenly felt that his son had a very sinister mind and did something he had never dared to do. With a sword in hand, he killed those old guys...
