Zhu Yan said: "We can't let Song Ning come!"
Xia Yuanqiu shook his head: "He can't do it. Firstly, he won't agree. Secondly, he is not suitable."
"Then who is suitable?" Zhu Yan went through all the brothers in his mind and found that none of them seemed suitable.
Xia Yuanqiu smiled and said, "You forgot someone."
"Who?" Zhu Yan was confused.
"Your fourth brother, Zhu Sheng." If we talk about Zhu Sheng, he is indeed the most suitable candidate. With his first-class intelligence and ruthless methods, he is indeed the best choice for the monarch.
"But he is guilty, so if he comes back, I'm afraid the courtiers will be dissatisfied!" Zhu Yan said worriedly.
Xia Yuanqiu smiled slightly: "You don't have to worry about this matter. My father can handle it well. Just tell me your thoughts. There are specific ways to handle matters in the court. My father will definitely have a way to make them nod. .”

At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, Zhu Sheng returned to Beijing. Zhu Yan went to the Golden Palace and asked his father to depose the crown prince. He asked his father to appoint his fourth brother Zhu Sheng as the crown prince to help his father to support the government and prosper Xiliang.
The emperor agreed, but all the officials were speechless.
A month later, news of the establishment of a new crown prince spread throughout the country, and the imperial announcement was posted in every corner of Xiliang Kingdom, including Xipo Village.
Xia Tieniu was illiterate, but he had a son who could read a few big characters. When his son read the imperial list, he was so happy that Xia Tieniu couldn't close his mouth.
Mrs. Lin almost died from laughter: "This damn girl Xia Yuanqiu, look at how arrogant she is, and can't even keep her position as Crown Princess. It's really hilarious. Let's see what she can do next time she comes to our Xipo Village. Se."
Xia Yuansong frowned and said: "Father, mother, when did Yuan Qiu become so embarrassed? Aren't you just asking for trouble in front of others? When did others deliberately feel sorry for us?"
Xia Tieniu said angrily: "What the hell do you know? She is from our old Xia family. She has become very successful, but she only wants to make others live better. When have she ever thought about our old Xia family? Look at our shabby house, and then look at it She would rather leave the compound empty than let us live in it."
Mrs. Lin also said: "That's right, look at her. She gave the old Zhang family a big ticket and gave it to the shop, and she also let them go to Kyoto. What about us? Did we gain anything from her? Last time she came back, she forced us to I want to give back all those crappy gadgets I had in the past. How can she, a majestic concubine, use those crappy gadgets? Isn’t she deliberately trying to embarrass us?" Ms. Lin became angrier as she spoke, so angry that her calves started to cramp, as if they belonged to her family. My entire family fortune was stolen by Uncle Zhang and his family.
Xia Yuansong couldn't stand listening anymore and said angrily: "You all know how to complain, complain about others not giving you benefits. Think about it for yourself. When Yuan Qiu and Yuan Hao had no father or mother, they lived a life without enough food. Did you take care of them? I remember one time when Yuan Hao was seriously ill. Yuan Qiu knelt down at our house and begged you to lend some money to Yuan Hao for medical treatment. Did you borrow it? Later, Yuan Qiu grew vegetables and sold them. It’s okay if you don’t help her with money, but you go to other people’s gardens from time to time to play in the autumn breeze, borrow money without repaying it, and even ate their only old hen, are you doing these things?”
Mrs. Lin glared at Xia Yuansong and said angrily: "You deluded person, are you still the son of our old Xia family? How can you speak for outsiders?"
"Outsiders? Didn't you just say that Yuan Qiu and we are a family? Tell me, have you done what I just said? Are these things done to your family? Now that Yuan Qiu is in trouble again, you Good thing, he started making sarcastic remarks again."
