The emperor rubbed his brows irritably, "I still have some papers to approve, so I'm going back to the study first. Chengze is coming with me. I have something to tell you."

"yes."

"Then you all go, and the queen is busy too. The Ai family has a headache and wants to take a rest."

The Queen Mother was not willing to pretend to be a submissive mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with the Queen, so she might as well have driven away together.

"Yes, Queen Mother, please rest, I will leave first."

The queen stood up and saluted.

The emperor took Li Chengze to the study room and said, "Tell me, why do you want to suppress the Crown Princess like this? Your Ding is really talented. He can force the Crown Princess to say unpleasant things. He has a very good brain."

Li Chengze immediately knelt down and said, "I don't dare to deceive my father. I gave the order to the Ding family, but the subsequent development was beyond my control. I didn't expect that she would think so much about the women in the harem and pissed everyone off.

I will file a complaint without mercy.

The reason is still due to the inaction of the Zhou family. I said before that I wanted to go to Jiangnan to investigate corrupt officials for my father. Unexpectedly, in the end, the Zhou family was not even willing to echo their opinions.

I had dealt with the Ding family, but they were the first to speak up for me and ask for this job for me. I was also very annoyed with the Zhou family.

Another thing is that Zhou Ying's character is really twisted, and it doesn't make sense no matter how you say it. She even resorted to the despicable trick of recruiting people from other people's houses, more than once, which really makes it difficult for me to be a good person.

The son did favor Mrs. Ding to a certain extent, but it was also because Mr. Ding was sensible that the son did not favor anyone. Otherwise, how could Mrs. Qian and the others be pregnant but not Mr. Ding.

I originally wanted the Crown Princess to be the legitimate son, but as you saw, she...hey!"

Li Chengze was kneeling there, his whole body was a little decadent, and he looked very tired.

The emperor listened to what he said and it was completely consistent with the information he learned. Ding was indeed favored, but she was not arrogant and domineering. She never left the house on weekdays and never broke any rules. Her treatment was only a small kitchen and that was it.

Especially since Qian and others got pregnant first, and there was more than one person, this showed that his son was well aware of the situation, did not want to be the only one to dote on her, and still knew the rules, which made him very satisfied.

"The Crown Princess is indeed a little bad, but she is married to a matchmaker anyway, so you should teach her more. You still need her in the Zhou family, so you can't give up so early."

"Yes, my son wants to be used by his family and the Qian family. The Qian family is sensible and well-behaved, and the Qian family's family tradition is also relatively upright."

Li Chengze decided to discuss it with his father first to show that he had no secrets. He was also a person who wanted to go to court. He couldn't have no one available. This was unrealistic. But he told his father clearly. I believe he can trust him.

Some.

"Well, the Yu family has been suppressed by me. You will naturally gain favor regardless of the past grudges. The Qian family is also considered a sensible and practical person. The Ding family has more low-level officials. Some of them can be transferred to Jiangnan as county magistrates. It is more than enough to take charge of the place.

, don’t rely solely on your in-laws, it will inevitably make them think that you can’t do it without their support.”

The emperor now starts to blame the Zhou family again for favoring his own son. My son is using you to give you face. The Zhou family can marry their daughter into the East Palace just to help the prince. Instead, they only take benefits and do not work. Where do you put me?

?Give me something shameless.

"Thank you for your trust. Your son has caused trouble for you and asked you to worry about your son. The child is unfilial. My son really wants to take care of your worries and go to Jiangnan to investigate corrupt officials. Jiangnan is a place with a heavy salt tax. It is related to the imperial treasury and the people's food."

Wear, this is a big deal, my son is willing to go on behalf of his father to clean up the chaos in Jiangnan."

Li Chengze kowtowed again to express his sincerity. He did not care about offending others. The most important thing was the stability and prosperity of the court.

The emperor was very satisfied. The prince had a view of the overall situation and understood the great righteousness. His character, talents and knowledge were all top-notch. He was indeed qualified as the heir.

It is also beneficial for him to have a quarrel between the Zhou family and the Ma family. The power and disciples of these two families have spread throughout the court. If their power is too great, it will threaten him as an emperor. It is really time to suppress them.

The Ma family has indeed become a bit arrogant recently, thinking that it would be great if two daughters entered the palace together. I am not dead yet. This day is still the world of the Li family, not your Ma family.

"Is Mr. Ma still obedient?"

"She is quite sensible. My son uses her to suppress the Crown Princess and Mrs. Li to prevent them from becoming too arrogant."

"Well, Mr. Ma had better not have children. The children of Ma family girls will bring you endless trouble. The Ma family cannot continue to favor you."

The emperor stared at Li Chengze's warnings word for word.

"Yes, my son has remembered it, and I will take care of it."

"Well, if you have it, you have to get rid of it. The Ma family has too much power. I'm afraid you won't be able to control it."

The emperor raised his head and his eyes were extremely cold and cruel. The queen had no son, and it was impossible for the Ma family to have one.

"yes."

Li Chengze's forehead was sweating slightly, and he had guessed as expected. It seemed that Lan'er's suggestion was correct. His father was very happy to see the Zhou family and Ma family fight, so that he could reap the benefits and fully control his own.

In the East Palace, my father will always sit firmly on Diaoyutai and will not suffer any losses.

"Stay back. I will seriously consider Jiangnan's matter. The time has not yet come."

"Yes, I will retire."

Li Chengze then retreated from the royal study room. He waited until he was far away before taking out his handkerchief and wiping his sweat. Today was really thrilling. Lan'er's plan was just right. The incident was not big or small, but it was enough to catch the Crown Princess.

The handle.

After returning to the East Palace, I went to Qinghui Garden first and saw Huilan lying on the imperial concubine's couch and taking a nap.

"tired?"

He walked over and sat on the edge, touching her head with loving and pitying eyes.

"It's done?"

Huilan asked with her eyes closed.

"Well, my father is very satisfied and has relaxed about my going to Jiangnan. When the time comes, I will take you to Jiangnan to see it."

"Well, I can help you further recuperate your body after you leave the house. There are some things that you really can't do in the palace."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I've worked hard for you today. You didn't even say a word to me. I almost didn't catch it."

Li Chengze was also very happy in his heart.

"It happened to be right in front of me, so I took advantage of it and angered Zhou Ying. I didn't expect her to be so restless. If you say something you don't like to hear, she is useless. You think I am selfish, but I think she is not as good as

Qian needs to be sober.

If the Qian family and the Zhang family don't rise, they can be used in the future, and the palace power cannot be given to the Crown Princess, she..."

Huilan shook her head and smashed her mouth, not paying attention.

"Then why don't you help me take care of the palace? I know what you do is a hundred times better than her. Your talents are above hers."

Li Chengze is very accurate in judging people. Huilan is low-key and too lazy to move. In fact, her talents are many times better than everyone else in the East Palace. However, they are not interested in plotting against you for trivial matters like three walnuts and two dates.

"When the time comes, at least you are the prince, so I can't stand out and let people say you don't understand the rules. Although the prince is indulged in love and gets into trouble, she still has something to be commended about. Even if she is a mascot, she still has to show it.

Wipe it from time to time, it is also necessary to show it to others."
