The news that King Shin was slapped in the face in public spread like this.

During these days, the eyes of the whole of Kyoto were fixed on King Shin and King Qi, and if something really happened to them, no one could hide it.

What's more, this happened in broad daylight, and the process of the incident was so simple that there was no need for too much guesswork at all.

Although the relationship between the Chen family and King Xin is not well known, many officials and magnates in Beijing know the inside story.

Chen Qing is the uncle of King Xin, and compared with King Shu, it stands to reason that King Xin is closer to the Chen family, but a long time ago, the Chen family firmly stood in the camp of King Shu.

The court has always stood in line regardless of intimacy, and the power of King Xin was too far away from that of King Shu, and a choice of the Chen family determined the rise and fall of the family in the next few decades.

So the Chen family fell into the current situation.

Seeing that the Chen family has fallen to this, King Xin, who was abandoned by the Chen family at that time, is now a popular candidate for the crown prince.

It is not surprising that he was slapped in the face when he fell into the well.

With His Majesty's previous will, there is no problem for Li Xianhou to beat a few people in Kyoto, although this person is the king of Xin, but isn't there a precedent for the king of Shu?

Some people think it's strange that the relationship between King Xin and the Chen family is not good, but the Li family and the Chen family seem to have a deep hatred like the sea, and they will actually slap King Xin in order to give the Chen family a head, and the intricate relationship between them is really stupid and can't tell the difference.

Some people also think that Li Yi is pampered and arrogant, there is no one in his eyes, relying on His Majesty's favor, he doesn't even care about the prince, such a person is a minister in any dynasty, and when the new monarch takes the throne, there must be no good end.

Of course, more people feel that King Xin will not be able to compete for the position of prince this time.

The legendary Li Xianhou, although he often did some shocking things, he was never a reckless person.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to get to his current position step by step in the past few years.

This only shows that he is not afraid of the revenge of King Xin, because King Xin is only King Xin, and as soon as the dynasty passes, he will begin to prepare for the king of Xin who will leave for the fiefdom.

This is news that has drawn a bright light for the confusing battle for succession.

……

Qi Wangfu.

King Qi paced back and forth in the mansion, heard footsteps coming from outside, hurriedly walked out of the door, and asked a subordinate, "Is it confirmed, is this matter true?" ”

The subordinate said excitedly: "Back to Your Highness, this matter is true, my subordinates have confirmed it several times, that Lord Li, he did it to King Xin!" ”

"Haha, sure enough, sure enough!"

King Qi laughed wildly twice and said, "Prepare a heavy gift for this king and send it to Lord Li's mansion." ”

"Yes!"

The man immediately retreated, pondering how thick and heavy the gift was, how thick and how heavy it was......

……

Before the onset of hysteria, Li Yi had already anticipated the impact of this incident.

The water in Kyoto is so deep and the situation is so chaotic that the slightest thing that happens to Shinoh will cause quite a commotion.

What followed was all kinds of speculation, there were so many princes in Kyoto, and these two slaps could be regarded as eliminating a wrong answer for them, and those small families who had thrown themselves to King Shin early were able to immediately find another master, and they must be very grateful to him in their hearts.

As it turned out, his guess was correct, and soon someone came to the door to give gifts.

The old man, who hadn't seen him for two days, walked in from outside and asked, "Uncle, do you accept the gift from the Qi Palace?" ”

Li Yi waved his hand, "Don't accept it." ”

To be a man to have a bottom line, he understands what the reason for King Qi to give gifts, the two princes who are most in the limelight in Kyoto are King Qi and King Xin, and now King Xin has been ruled out by him as a wrong answer, King Qi has a bottom in his heart, and naturally he wants to give gifts and thank you.

However, King Qi himself is also a wrong answer, if he accepts his gift, won't it make him have the illusion that he has already sat on the throne with half of his ass?

"Okay, I'll let them take it back." Lao Fang walked a few steps, thought about it, and then turned around and asked, "Really don't accept it, the gift from King Qi is very heavy?" ”

This is a matter of principle of being a person, not a question of whether to receive gifts or not at all, Li Yi hesitated for a moment, looked at Lao Fang, and asked, "How much does it weigh?" ”

……

Kyoto, somewhere the mansion of a powerful person.

A subordinate ran into the study in a panic and said anxiously: "Master, it's not good, Lord Li has received a heavy gift from King Qi!" ”

"Sure enough?"

"Sure enough!"

"Really?"

"Seriously!"

……

"King Xin is not a good wood, prepare a car, I want to visit His Royal Highness King Qi immediately!" In the study, a man hurriedly changed into civilian clothes and was about to go out.

The subordinate asked a lot: "Master, if Lord Li has received a gift from King Qi, can it mean that His Royal Highness King Qi is the crown prince decided by His Majesty and the ministers?" ”

"You know what!" The man waved his hand, "If not, why would Lord Li accept King Qi's gift, could it be that he would covet that little thing?" ”

Qin Mansion.

Qin Xiang looked at the letter in his hand, shook his head slightly, and muttered, "The water is already muddy enough this time, does he want to stir it again?" ”

Xinwangfu.

"Did he really take it?" King Shin slumped weakly in his chair, his face pale.

The man slapped him in the face and received the gift of King Qi, what is the meaning of this, do you need to say more?

He lost, completely lost.

Li ...... Easy! King Shin looked at the open space outside the door, his teeth clenched, and his eyes showed a look of resentment.

"Prepare the car and go to the Qi Palace!"

……

"Your Excellency Butler will send it here......" A man walked out of the Qi Palace's mansion with a smile and said, "In the future, Han Mou will only be the head of His Royal Highness!." ”

As he descended the steps, a magnificent carriage stopped in front of the house.

"Faith, Faith Your Highness ......"

The man saw the young man who got off the carriage, and his face showed embarrassment, after all, he had just said in the Xinwang Mansion yesterday that he would let the king of Xin drive, and today he was in front of the Qi Wangfu only the king of Qi was looking at the horse, and he was also seen by the person concerned......

A half-hearted woman is not a likable, and a man who steps on two boats at dusk is not a good thing, and the middle-aged man bows his head and immediately leaves in shame.

King Xin didn't look at him, looked at His Royal Highness in the Qi Palace, and said, "Take me to see the Emperor Brother of Qi." ”

King Qi sat in the main hall and didn't look up until King Xin walked in.

After King Xin came over, he knelt down on one knee and said in a loud voice: "Brother has seen the emperor!" ”

King Qi was stunned, but in an instant, he understood what he meant, with a victor's smile on his face, he walked over, gently helped him up, and said with a smile: "Between you and my brothers, there is no need to be polite." ”

Since it is a battle for the crown, naturally some people succeed and some people fail, and the fate of the loser is generally not very good.

"I've heard about today's events." King Qi looked at him and said slowly: "Then Li Yi is really excessive, slapping the emperor's brother in the face is slapping the royal face, and it is slapping my face......"

King Xin knew that he was full of righteous indignation, and he didn't know how happy he was, so he didn't continue the topic, knelt down again, and said respectfully: "Since the younger brother has lost, he will be driven by the imperial brother in the future, and I only hope that the imperial brother will remember the past feelings and spare the life of the younger brother." ”

King Qi's face was a little unpleasant, and he helped him up again, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you talking about, since you and I are both princes, it is inevitable to fight for the crown, no matter who wins or loses, we are all brothers, do you think that the imperial brother I will do that big rebellion and unethical thing?" ”

Of course, his face is not good-looking, and part of the reason why his heart has been exposed.

Although he won the king of faith temporarily, it is difficult to guarantee that he will have any thoughts in the future, the easiest way to save trouble, of course, is to kill them all, a hundred, but just ascended the throne to do such a thing, it is inevitable that people will fall into the handle, and the king of faith is so aware of current affairs, he is not good to do too much.

"Thank you, Brother Huang." Although King Xin was extremely afraid in his heart, he still said respectfully: "Brother Chen, congratulations to the imperial brother here!" ”

King Qi smiled, the facts were already obvious, and he didn't need to hide it anymore.

"Although this matter is a great joy for the imperial brother...... "King Xin looked at him and said, "But there is one person, the imperial brother has to guard against." ”

King Qi looked at him and asked, "You mean ------ Li Yi?" ”

King Xin nodded and said: "This person has become a climate in the court, can influence the situation in the court, and is arrogant and domineering...... will threaten the royal brother. ”

King Qi was silent for a moment, suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the day when the imperial brother ascends the throne is the time when the minister dies." ”
