In the palace.

After Chen Zhen reported Long Shujun's identity, he arched his hand and said: "King, Long Shujun is scheming, treacherous and resourceful, and now lurking beside the prince, there must be a shocking conspiracy."

The minister asked the king to immediately order the summons of the crown prince, saying that Long Shujun was about him, and then sent someone to arrest Long Shujun. ”

When Xiong Huai heard this, he ignored Chen Zhen, who asked for his life, but groaned for a while, and sighed: "The prince has grown up!" ”

When Chen Zhen heard this, he thought that the king of Chu was already very disappointed and dissatisfied with the crown prince, and immediately bowed his hand again: "King, please immediately issue an edict to arrest Long Shujun, there will be a big change later." ”

Xiong Huai shook his head and refused again: "Forget it, the prince has also grown up." It is not uncommon for kings, and even feudal kings, to hide thieves and wanted criminals.

The prince hides a mere Long Shujun, what is this? ”

Chen Zhen was taken aback and said hurriedly: "King, Long Shujun is the rebel leader of Jianghuai's rebellion, the prince is benevolent and filial, how can he hide a great rebel like Long Shujun."

From the perspective of the ministers, this must be Long Shujun concealing his identity, and then he can approach the prince, mislead the prince, and incite the prince to be detrimental to our Chu State. ”

"Chen Qing said that the prince would not recognize Long Shujun." Xiong Huai glanced at Chen Zhen and said with a smile: "Although Long Shujun is the feudal monarch of Jianghuai, since he inherited the title, he will go to Yingdu at least once a year, and the prince has also seen Long Shujun at least once a year.

Maybe the prince didn't recognize it on the spot, but now that a month has passed, Long Shujun is dangling in front of the prince every day, do you think the prince really can't recognize it? ”

Chen Zhen's face changed.

The king thinks that the prince has a bad heart!

At this time, Xiong Huai shook his head and said to Chen Zhen again: "Chen Qing, this time even give the prince a face!" Since Long Shujun is known as Jiang Chengzi, and Long Shujun, who was white and fat in the past, has become Jiang Chengzi, who is black and thin today, then treat him as Jiang Chengzi.

From today onwards, closely monitor Long Shujun, no, it is to monitor Jiang Chengzi, and erase Long Shujun's name from Zhibeiya's files, leaving only Jiang Chengzi's name.

As long as this Jiang Chengzi does not rebel in the future, then he is just Jiang Chengzi.

In the past, Duke Qi Huan could tolerate Guan Zhong, and today's widow can also tolerate Long Shujun.

What's more, now that the prince is in charge of the country, it is the time to employ people, if the widow takes action to arrest the prince's guests, it will hurt the prince's face and hit the prince's majesty. ”

When Chen Zhen heard this, he immediately frowned.

Is this something that hurts the prince's face and hits the prince's majesty?

This is obviously because the prince hides the rebel dragon Shujun, so the king has different thoughts about the prince.

Besides, let Long Shujun change his mind from now on, and there will be no more rebellion, how is this possible!

What about Long Shujun, his entire clan almost died in the hands of the king, and his hatred for the king is a deep hatred in the sea of blood.

That's it, Long Shujun approached the prince under a pseudonym, how could there be good things, how could there be good intentions, he would definitely encourage the prince to make a transgression day and night, and then make the king and the prince turn against each other.

Just like the previous month, the month after Long Shujun took refuge with the prince, the prince's behavior was already very out of line, beyond the scope of the prince, and beyond the scope of the minister of the prison state, so that the court and the government respected the prince one after another.

It's only been a month!

If it takes a little longer, God knows what Long Shujun will do to encourage the prince.

And this, the king turned a blind eye.

Thinking about it, Chen Zhen was about to prepare to admonish again, but when the words came to his lips, he looked at the calm face of the King of Chu and swallowed the words again.

But as soon as the words were swallowed back into his stomach, the feelings for the Chu State in his heart and the righteousness of the courtiers in his heart pushed these words into his throat again.

Inhale··· Exhale···

After repeatedly, Chen Zhen couldn't help it after all, with a trace of sadness, he bowed and said: "The prince is the foundation of a country, and there is no room for loss, and now the king has let a traitorous minister who betrayed the king stay with the prince, and day and night he said that the prince is a traitor and a heresy, and in the long run, it will shake the foundation of the country."

Bow again, please think twice! ”

Xiong Huai pondered for a while, shook his head and said: "Xianqing is too worried, now that the general trend is in the hands of the widow, what can a mere Long Shujun do!" Influence him with morality, guide him with righteous words, and regulate him with laws, and the wicked will also go on the right path.

Therefore, the widow thinks that a mere Long Shujun is not worth the turn of my father and son. ”

"Father and son turn against each other." When Chen Zhen heard this, he was shocked.

He suddenly understood why Long Shujun would return to the Chu State, and he dared to act openly and openly by the prince's side, and even dared to openly contact his former friends in Jianghuai.

It turns out that he still has such sinister intentions.

It turned out that he had come to beg for death, and to use his death to arouse the prince's hatred and resentment towards the king.

If... If the king really listened to his advice, he sent someone to arrest Long Shujun.

Then, Long Shujun will definitely not give in, and he will definitely die in advance to prove his innocence, and then the nobles around the prince, especially the friends introduced by Long Shujun to the prince, will definitely take the opportunity to stimulate the prince, encourage the prince, and make the prince and the king turn against each other.

It's really a poisonous strategy, he approached the prince incognito, and then he acted in a high-profile manner, and he never even concealed his identity.

If the king doesn't do it, then as long as he stays by the prince's side for a day, then the king's evil feelings towards the prince will increase day by day, until finally the king can't bear it anymore and does something to the prince.

If the king does it, the prince will be unbearable and will turn against the king.

If yes... The king didn't do it, but he secretly persuaded the prince, and even other ministers of the court to persuade the prince to secretly kill Long Shujun, which is no different from the king doing it directly.

Let the people around the prince persuade you?

Chen Zhen thought of the people of Zhou Hou Panjun, and shook his head again, these people close to the prince may be happy.

Because Long Shujun did what they always wanted to do, but didn't dare to do.

As for the others...

Chen Zhen thought of Taifu Huanyuan, who was retiring in Yingdu, and then thought of the prince's brother-in-law, Gongzi, and then thought of Gongzi Ping's teacher, Taixue Jiu Shenzi, and also remembered the prince's uncle, Nanhou's brother Nangonglai.

These people can go and persuade the prince at this time, and then persuade the prince to the right path.

Thinking about it, Chen Zhen raised his head and was about to admonish again, but he met the cold eyes and indifferent face of the King of Chu.

Chen Zhen was taken aback.

What he can think of, can the king not think of it, but now the king has not said anything, has not done anything, and has not even had the intention of summoning Taifu Huanyuan and Nangong!

King: This is...

The king sat back and watched Long Shujun agitate the crown prince, is this a normal father's attitude towards his son, and how can it be the monarch's attitude towards the prince.

At this moment, Chen Zhen suddenly thought of a lot, many things that he didn't want to think about, but now, he also figured it out.

He thought of the people gathered around the prince at this moment, and suddenly understood.

After figuring it out, he wanted to speak again to preserve the benevolence and reputation of the king of Chu.

However, as soon as he thought of the people gathered around the prince, he swallowed his words again.

It's too late now.

Thinking about it, Chen Zhen sighed with a lonely face: "The king is wise! ”

Hearing this, Xiong Huai smiled, and then waved his hand to let Chen Zhen retreat.

After Chen Zhen left, Xiong Huai remembered what Chen Zhen had just reported, the prince had just made a big deal about the noble heroes, and suddenly sighed: "Prince, the widow has never forced you, the prince, every step you take is your own choice, in the future, under Jiuquan, when you and my father and son meet again, you don't blame the widow."

Because the widow is not only your father, but also the king of Chu, and in addition to the son of the widow, you are the son and even the prince of the Chu State, the widow is responsible for the Chu State, and you also need to be responsible for the Chu State! ”

After a pause, Xiong Huai sighed again: "Lao Ziyun: When the success is done, the people all say, 'I am natural'." At this moment, the widow can already appreciate the true meaning of Lao Tzu's doctrine.

It's a pity... It's a pity that the widow understood too late and suffered the loss of less reading to get to where he is today.

The father and son are out of harmony, and the sin is mine, not the prince!

In the future, under Jiuquan, if the queen brings Ziheng and Zilan to see the widow, what face will the widow have to see the queen again?? ”
