Chapter 637 Provocation
When Zhao Chen heard what he said to be the emperor, he was extremely happy.
But the joy quickly faded away, and he said a little annoyed: "Now many people are optimistic about Zhao Chun."
"The king doesn't know everything. The news just came from Tokyo that Zhao Chun was poisoned and his life and death are uncertain now."
The cup in Zhao Chen's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the wine swelled all over the floor.
"What!" Zhao Chen couldn't believe it, "Brother Chun was poisoned?"
"What? Is the king very happy? If Zhao Chun dies, the king will naturally be able to take the throne smoothly."
"Nonsense!" Zhao Chen suddenly felt a little irritable, "Even if I want to be the emperor, I can't let Brother Chun die!"
Lu Wanqing was slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, although Zhao Chen had many shortcomings, his heart was not vicious.
She immediately catered to the scene: "The king is soft-hearted, don't worry, Zhao Chun should be fine."
Zhao Chen sighed, not thinking of drinking at all: "Although I really want to be the prince and I am very jealous of Brother Chun, I will never do anything to kill each other."
"But what if someone forces you?"
"Who forced me?"
Lu Wanqing smiled and said, "Of course no one dares to force the king. I just said that if the king is forced to helpless."
Zhao Chen remained silent and stopped talking.
There was never an airtight wall in the palace, and the incident of Zhao Chun being poisoned soon spread.
For a moment, rumors spread everywhere.
A few days later, there was a rumor from somewhere that it was an assassin of the Liao King's sect.
It was said that the King of Liao wanted to be the crown prince, so he planned to assassinate the emperor's favorite son.
Rumors stop at the wise.
Unfortunately, the public has always been foolish.
Of course, some people also speculate that it was an assassin from the Liao Kingdom.
Yelu Dashi sent someone to assassinate Zong Ze and planned to assassinate the emperor, but unfortunately the one who got caught was the emperor's son.
People in the court have always been very sensitive.
Some people say they are assassins of the Liao King Sect, and this rumor is like mushrooms after a rain.
Someone began to wait for the emperor's actions.
If the King of Liao dared to send someone to assassinate, the emperor would definitely not let the King of Liao go.
Some people also say that the emperor actually prefers the King of Liao, otherwise he would not have sent him to the Xianzhou in Liaodong.
This is training him.
Soon, the emperor will call him back to the palace and let him enter the Eastern Palace.
Zhao Chen also heard a lot of rumors about Tokyo.
Zhao Sheng, who is studying at the University of Tokyo, wrote letters to Zhao Chen in a lot of time, just because he didn't want him to be affected by rumors.
This was obviously someone who deliberately framed him, just to take this opportunity to allow the emperor to establish a crown prince.
After a while, an explosive news came from Tokyo: the emperor made Zhao Chun the crown prince.
When Zhao Chen received the news, he was enjoying the snow with Zhu Qing's daughter, his princess Zhu Yuying.
Zhu Yuying was also smart and immediately saw that Zhao Chen was in a low mood, and he must have felt sad about losing the position of crown prince.
She said, "Your husband doesn't have to care too much."
"You don't understand. If I can be an emperor in the future, I can also let the world govern according to my ideas. I also have talented people in the world, and I want to show my talents!"
Zhao Chen was very unwilling to accept it: "Why didn't the official family make me the crown prince? I am the eldest son!"
"Master, isn't your life good now?"
"I'm not willing!"
Time passed quickly, and three months passed in a blink of an eye.
Zhao Chun's health has improved a lot and started to jump around again.
Seeing that the food from the Western Expedition was already on the way, many of them had even arrived at the front line.
The Yulin Army also practices day and night.
The court began to argue again about the emperor's personal expedition.
This dynasty has a tradition of the emperor personally expeditioning.
Taizu was a soldier. Although Taizong was defeated in his own battle, he barely captured Taiyuan City.
The emperor had also personally fought several times before, but he returned from great victory.
The supporters of course felt that the emperor would definitely win the battle in person and eliminated the dangers of the Western Paradise of the Song Dynasty.
Opponents felt that the Song Dynasty was under rapid construction and the absence of the emperor would inevitably have an impact on economic development.
Another month passed during the debate.
After the oath in Tokyo, Zhao Huan finally set foot on the battlefield of the Western Expedition again.
The 100,000 Yulin Army set out from Tokyo and headed northwest.
The Northwest mobilized civilians, as many as 1.5 million.
From road construction to food transportation, the northwest is undergoing rapid changes.
Wherever the emperor went, the people all met with the road to greet him.
While the Yulin Army was heading west, the situation in Liaodong had stabilized.
At least it seems to be stable.
Lu Wanqing wrote a letter to the man in black in front of her, and she said: "Be sure to find a way to deliver this letter to Li Gang!"
"Abide by the order!"
Three days later, Li Gang received a letter of complaint, someone reported that Li Chongguang had opened a trading company and started a mine privately.
The military's business is a taboo, let alone mining?
Before Li Gang received this letter of complaint.
A carriage was parked in front of Li Chongguang's mansion.
When he saw Lu Wanqing again, Li Chongguang was so excited that he didn't sleep for three days and three nights.
Lu Wanqing lay in Li Chongguang's arms and suddenly said a little sad: "Dutong Li, I am here this time, I am afraid I will leave you forever."
Li Chongguang became anxious when he heard this: "What do you mean?"
"You don't know that our industry has been noticed by Li Gang. I have stopped this matter and it has nothing to do with you."
Li Chongguang was slightly stunned: "What! How could Li Gang know? We did a very hidden way!"
"There is no airtight wall in the world. As long as Li Gang grasps some evidence, he can catch me. Don't worry, I'll be responsible."
Lu Wanqing said in tears, feeling pitiful, which made Li Chongguang feel deeply distressed.
"Beauty, how could I leave you alone!"
"Master, Li Xianggong is selfless and will not let me go. Mining is clearly prohibited by the court."
"If Li Gang dares to touch a hair of your hair, I will kill him!"
Lu Wanqing hurriedly covered Li Chongguang's mouth: "Master, be careful when speaking, there are ears in the wall."
"Hmph! This is the General Administration, not the General Administration!"
"I have recognized Li Dutong's intentions, but this matter is very important. Don't lose your future because of my family!"
"How can you compare with the beauty in the future?" Li Chongguang said proudly, "You don't have to worry, all the 100,000 Tielin Army in Liaodong will listen to me!"
"Dutong Li!" Lu Wanqing hugged Li Chongguang and snuggled in his arms, "Li Lang, in this life, meeting Li Lang is a blessing that I have cultivated in my family for eight lifetimes."
A few days later, Li Gang sent someone to investigate and found out that there was an iron ore near Shenzhou that belonged to Li Chongguang.
"It's outrageous! The army is prohibited from engaging in business! What's more, mining! Who gives him the power!"
Li Gang said angrily: "Come here, hand over all these to the Supervision Bureau and let them find Li Chongguang!"
