Things in the power field change so quickly, you can't be called a winner if you don't have the last laugh, and a momentary win or loss can't decide anything.
There is nothing wrong with the third prince doing this. He and the eldest prince are competitors. The eldest prince robbed him of his merits and slapped him in the face.
You know, no matter where you are, what you can do is not as good as what you can talk about, and what you do is not as good as showing yourself all the time. There is no doubt that the eldest prince is the one who can do well, but he will not say it, nor will he express himself.
The third prince was indeed a failure. He was kidnapped by bandits, and he wanted someone to rescue him, but so what
Once rescued, the third prince gave himself a great image of taking risks and going deep into the enemy camp.
As for true or false
Who can find out? Going deep into the enemy camp is the secret plan of the third prince. He has no humaneness to the outside world. Even if he wants to investigate, the third prince is not afraid. If he dares to say so, he must be prepared.
This loss, the eldest prince is settled!
And the timing of the third prince's launch was just right. It was not until the day the eldest prince entered the city that he let his subordinates fold the bullet to impeach the eldest prince. The eldest prince didn't even have the opportunity to prepare in advance. As soon as he returned to Beijing, he was announced to the palace by the emperor.
When he arrived in the palace, the eldest prince figured out what was going on. He naturally wanted to explain, but no matter how much he explained, he couldn't change the fact that one million taels of gold was gone.
And according to the third prince, there is nothing wrong with the eldest prince taking gold to redeem people, but as long as the eldest prince does not act so impulsive and does not take the lead, his plan will be successful.
Not only does the empire not have to give out the one million taels of gold, but it can even catch all the bandits in one go, instead of letting the bandits run away with the gold as they are now, slapping the empire in the face.
The decision to agree to take the gold to redeem the people was made by the emperor, but at this time no one will say that the emperor is not half a word, and all the wrong lies with the first prince.
There is nothing wrong with taking gold to redeem people, but it is wrong to act impulsive, sabotage the third prince's plan, and keep accompanying the generals to persuade him.
The eldest prince was not good at debating, and he was speechless for a while. Except for insisting that he was just trying to save people, that he had no selfish intentions, and that he did not know the third prince's plan, the eldest prince could not explain it at all.
The emperor of the empire didn't like the eldest prince, and seeing the eldest prince like this was even more annoying, and deeply felt that the eldest prince made him embarrassed.
If the first prince hadn't acted impulsive, he wouldn't have had the infamy of being threatened by bandits and could only redeem himself with gold.
Thinking of these bad things, the emperor was even more unhappy, waved his hand and said, "I have a decision on this matter, you should go back to the mansion and think about it behind closed doors. You cannot leave the mansion without my order."
The eldest prince felt aggrieved in his heart, but whoever said this kind of thing first, whoever said it loudly, was the victor. The eldest prince lost the opportunity and couldn't do anything except suffer the loss.
The eldest prince was ordered by the emperor to think about it behind closed doors, and one pass lasted for dozens of days. The emperor didn't even ask a question. The ministers who knew the emperor's thoughts naturally would not mention the eldest prince at this time, much less that there are two more in the capital. , Prince Dongwen and Princess Dongwen who came with the emperor.
This matter is not a secret matter. Xiao Tianyao went out that night and found out the news. After hearing it, Lin Chujiu opened his mouth wide: "So, we have been affected by Chiyu."
The eldest prince was indeed a hard worker. He clearly did his best to save people, but in the end, he carried all the faults on his back.
Lin Chujiu thought, this is definitely not the first time the eldest prince has been blamed. If not, the eldest prince's reputation in the Central Empire would not be so bad.
"Forget it." The Emperor of the Empire did not summon them, nor did he deliberately disarm them, but because the First Prince was too late to mention them, the Emperor of the Empire did not even know of their existence.
The ministers in the court did not know about this, and after observing for dozens of days, they did not see the emperor summoning them, thinking that the emperor was deliberately trying to cool them, so no one dared to mention it in front of the emperor.
This kind of thing is very common. Many envoys of small countries want to ask to see the emperor of a big country. They need to check up and down. Otherwise, you will wait at the inn for the rest of your life, and the emperor of a big country will not know who you are.
Yes, it's not that I don't see you, but I don't know your existence at all, just like the emperor of the empire, who has long forgotten Xiao Tianyao.
"Since it's not intentional to be indifferent to us, then don't worry, we can do whatever we want. Anyway, the eldest prince will come out after a while." The eldest prince is not an idiot. It's a coward.
Moreover, even if the eldest prince cannot fight back, it is impossible to keep thinking behind closed doors. When the eldest prince comes out, the emperor of the empire will naturally know of their existence.
Putting down the worries in their hearts, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu completely calmed down and only regarded the days at the inn as a vacation.
You know, they won't have the chance to live such a leisurely life soon, and it's better to enjoy them now. Anyway, the people at the inn just don't let them go out, and they won't treat them harshly.
It's just that this life was broken within a few days.
The people in the empire are not stupid either. After observing for half a month, someone smartly discovered that the emperor did not dispose of the prince and princess from Dongwenlai, but simply forgot the existence of these two people.
As a result, there are fewer people who pay attention to them, and those in the line of the eldest prince dare to take action.
The first person who came to the door was Hua Jinrong, the young master of the Hua family, who was not the eldest prince, but in the matter of Xiao Tianyao, he joined forces with the eldest prince.
Hua Jinrong, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu can be regarded as old acquaintances. Because of the loss of the young master of the Hua family, the Hua family owes Lin Chujiu a favor. Although Hua Jinrong quickly repaid the favor, but...
Repaying the favor does not mean that the two sides can no longer have intersections. Some things are not due to the favor, but can be settled by paying the favor, at least that's what Hua Jinrong thinks.
Just because Lin Chujiu saved their family's Xiaojiu, Hua Jinrong was willing to help Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu to the best of her ability.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu will naturally come out to receive the visit from the young master of the Hua family. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Hua Jinrong said straight to the point: "I will let people talk about your affairs tomorrow, and then you will be ready."
The struggle between several princes in the Central Empire became more and more violent and chaotic. Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were involved with the eldest prince. It was better to leave early if they didn't want to die.
In the Central Empire, those princes would be concerned about the family background behind others, but no one would be concerned about Dongwen behind Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu.
If something really happened, the two of them must be the first to be sacrificed. Hua Jinrong asked them to leave earlier, definitely for their own good, but...
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu refused!
