Early in the morning, Prince Fu was in charge of official duties in the mansion. Suddenly, an eunuch from the Ganqing Palace came to report that the emperor summoned the prince. Judging from his expression, this matter was quite large. Prince Fu had a ghost in his heart, and this was even more timid. He was conspiring to usurp power recently and had already started to make arrangements. Could it be that some place was inappropriate and had caught the emperor's misunderstanding?

Everything in front of me was not yet complete and the power was insufficient, so even if I had no chance of fighting immediately, I couldn't help but panic. I tried to test it several times on the way, but the eunuch always replied that he didn't know. I didn't know if he was guarding it, or if the emperor even concealed him.

After a while, when he arrived at the Ganqing Palace, the eunuch at the gate informed loudly, and the voice hurt Prince Fu's ears. It was the first time that he was so tired of the eunuch's voice that he had been used to. Before he could wake up, he was dragged into it. Shunzhi was reviewing the memorial at the table. As soon as he saw him, he immediately sent his servants away and said, "Prince Fu, sit down quickly." Prince Fu was even more nervous, and deliberately put on a humble statement to test it first, and said with a smile: "Where is the seat of a minister in front of the emperor?"

Shunzhi said: "I have something to ask for. Today I will meet as a uncle and nephew in my life, so there is no need to be confined to the difference between the monarch and the minister. I asked you to sit, and you sit."

Prince Fu saw that his smile was kind, but who knew if there was a fatal sharp blade hidden behind him? He sat down in cold sweat. At the same time, he saw that he was the only one in the hall, so he was a little relieved. I hope that the emperor was too careless because he had not thought about it carefully. If he had ambushed a large number of soldiers outside the palace, once he started, he could still use him as a charity. However, the time has not come, so as long as he can not break his face, it is better to maintain a peaceful appearance as much as possible.

Shunzhi pushed the mountain-stacked memorial aside and left a blank space on the table. He said, "Prince Fu, I have a troublesome thing recently, and I have a hard time thinking about it. I want to discuss it with me, but it is related to royal secrets. If the news is leaked, it is really inappropriate. I think about it. You are an elder who grew up watching me since childhood, and a veteran in the court who has long been loyal to the late emperor. Today's matter... You are not a royal family member and have no interests. If you want to talk about the best person for discussion, you should be the leader. This matter will be delayed for one day, and it will be more involved. Therefore, I am eager to ask for your opinion, and it has not missed the prince's business, right?"

Prince Fu replied carefully: "It is a great honor to be able to solve the problems of the emperor." Shunzhi said: "It's so great. Can you tell me that I was doing something to expel ghosts to Ling Beile in the palace yesterday?"

Prince Fu thought to himself, "So what? Do you suspect that I was instructing him to pretend to be crazy?" After thinking about it, he replied, "Although I was not present in person, I heard the child repeat it afterwards." Shunzhi nodded and said, "The Shaman Master told me that Xuan Shuang was infected with evil spirits. If he wanted to completely eradicate this strange disease, he had to be appointed as the prince as soon as possible and granted him a palace to live in. According to what you see, how should this matter be handled?"

After hearing these words, Prince Fu thought that the summoning of Shunzhi had nothing to do with him, so he couldn't help but laugh at the beginning of worrying about the pros and cons in his heart, and replied: "The final decision is naturally the emperor. I am just expressing my humble opinion... According to my opinion, it is appropriate not to make it."

Shunzhi resonated with his heart and blurted out: "I am the same..." Then he thought that this matter was an inconvenient secret, and decided not to let anyone know that his mind was good, and he swallowed the word "think". But since the words had already reached this level, it would be irrelevant to continue or not. He changed his mouth and asked, "How can I tell?"

Prince Fu was so clever that he pretended not to hear something about Shunzhi's previous sentence, and he deliberately pretended not to hear it. He continued: "Return to the emperor, I don't know all about this matter, I can only say that I will give the emperor a detailed look."

If he could say that it coincides with Shunzhi, it would be that the emperor was wise. If he had disagreements, it would be that he would have been confused about the matter. Continued, "I always feel that Ling Beile's madness was pretending to be a pretentious person. I am afraid that he would have planned to seize the position of crown prince as soon as possible. If he had not done it intentionally, there would have been another person behind him. Those shamans were also colluding with the Regent and had already bribed them and deliberately slandered the emperor. If he acted according to his words and deeds at this time, wouldn't he have fulfilled the wishes of those who were planning to be ill-telled? When will the Qing Dynasty enthroned the crown prince? I think the emperor had his own considerations in his heart. How could he be easily led by others? At that time, how can the emperor's power remain?"

Shunzhi sighed, "Yes, this is also about my heart. I don't believe in evil and filth. Ghosts cast magic and are charming. This kind of legend has existed since ancient times. However, no good person will be possessed by evil in order to become the prince? This matter is too bizarre. How can I convince myself and the subjects of the world?"

Prince Fu said: "I am afraid. This inference is only a bold guess. There is no flaw in Ling Beile's words and deeds. But the only thing I can't understand is that since I have deliberately deceived the emperor, I must have come prepared. How could I make such an untenable lie? In today's world, there are still many strange diseases that are difficult to diagnose, but I am afraid that this evil will cause it, which is one of them..."

Shunzhi said: "Xuanshuang is very well-behaved and smart at a young age. He has always been my favorite son. But he can't do this by deceiving me like this. I'm afraid he has other accomplices and I don't know how many people he has brought to this matter. I want to take this opportunity to investigate thoroughly. It depends on how many people in the palace are truly loyal to me, and how many are restless in private?"

Prince Fu smiled dryly and said, "Your Majesty, there is a saying you may not like to hear, but I really think about it, but I have to say it. Ling Beile may not be as innocent and simple as you see. His ambition is even more than that of the other scheming people." Shunzhi was shocked and said, "Why do you say this?"

Prince Fu said: "Ling Beile has a good relationship with his little son Yaohua, and he is also close to his relationship with him. He once complained to him, saying that the emperor clearly agreed to him as the crown prince, why did he refuse to fulfill his wish? When people complain, they often say something that is not very nice, and I forgot it after hearing it. He once told me that his patience is limited. If the emperor still cannot give him a satisfactory reply, he plans to... privately usurp power and rebel, force the palace to abdicate! He also invited me to cooperate with him and send troops to help him if necessary. If this matter is done, I will definitely not forget today's grace in the future!"

Shunzhi was greatly touched and said, "How is this possible?" What appeared in his mind was Xuanshuang's kind and cute appearance. But when he was exorcizing ghosts, he did reveal some extremely depressing resentment. The most important thing was that the palace struggles have always been dirty, and there were countless cases of fighting with each other in the same family, and father and son turning against each other. But he didn't expect that one day, it would also happen to him.

It was better that he would never hear it in his heart, but he still couldn't help asking: "What was the situation at that time? If you say in detail, you must not hide it."

Prince Fu said: "When he proposed it, I did not explicitly refuse, but pretended to be a little moved. If I wanted to gain his trust, I could hear more of his thoughts and prepare for the future. Sometimes, in order to make a scene realistic, I had to do many additional scenes. I did all this, and ultimately for the sake of the Emperor and the Qing Dynasty."

He made arrangements in advance, so that even if there are any changes in the future, he would be able to excuse himself from the emperor and gain a legitimate guise for his actions. Shunzhi said: "I naturally believe in you, so what else can I explain?"

Prince Fu smiled and said, "The emperor is wise, but I have been a wise official for many years, and I am afraid that there will be many people who are not convinced. If you tamper with ulterior motives, spread rumors and make a general completely reverse the truth. Many unnecessary misunderstandings between the king and the minister often come from this. If this sentence is passed into the emperor's ears, it is also a crime for me to cause a little turmoil in your heart."

Shunzhi said: "I have clear rewards and punishments, and I have always paid attention to conclusive evidence when dealing with things. The prince doesn't have to worry about it. Xuanshuang...but what?"

Prince Fu said: "At first, I was trying hard to persuade Ling Beile to understand that the emperor is the king of the world and then his father. The emperor must put the overall situation first in everything he does. Even if he neglects you recently, he will definitely care about your son in his heart. You must understand the difficulties of the emperor and don't disturb him anymore. But don't have the idea of ​​opposing the emperor. It's like being an enemy of the entire Qing Dynasty. The emperor, I have also tried my best to persuade Ling Beile to go back to the right path and assist the emperor again. I have never used any incentives to fuel it. I hope the emperor will understand it clearly! Unfortunately, Ling Beile has fallen too deeply, and after my repeated admonitions, it is still ineffective."

Shunzhi said: "You are loyal and dedicated to my Qing Dynasty. I understand this central meaning. It's just Xuanshuang... Alas, I didn't expect that he has been lying to me all the time. The surface of everything he can see is false, which is really terrifying. Then I am always being plotted against others?... Alas, this is the sorrow of being a king of a country. Even my own son will treat you as an enemy. Now, I really envy you. Sometimes, my own flesh and blood are not as caring as my adopted child. Yaohua must be very filial to you, right?"

Prince Fu smiled charmingly on his face, sneered in his heart, and said to himself: "Yaohua? Don't mention him. My son colluded with your son and colluded with each other. He actually learned from the little bastard Xuanshuang everywhere, and he still wanted to rebel against me. How could I spare him?"

Shunzhi's thoughts were repeated, and he always revolved around the matter of becoming a crown prince, saying, "I originally thought that Xuanshuang was a willful person for a while and did such a thing, and it was not unforgivable to do it. But now I have to think about it again. Even if he is capable, he has such a strong ambition at a young age. In the future, he will have to make a profit and take over life and death? For the sake of the country and country for millions of years, the throne cannot be handed over to him. What should I do to truly settle it? I don't want to see a son and become a fool for no reason..."

Prince Fu said: "In my opinion, it is better to let things go. The more Ling Beile is anxious to wait for the reply, the more we will waste it for him. Let's see how long he can endure it? If he is really patient and willing to act like a fool for the rest of his life, I have nothing to say. However, Ling Beile should understand the gains and losses in this, and I will definitely not do that loss."

Shunzhi pondered: "Although this method is feasible, it will inevitably delay it for a long time, and it is afraid that changes will occur... Is there a way to do it once and for all?"

Prince Fu said: "If you really want to say it, it's not that there is nothing. But, although Ling Beile is still a child, he is extremely calm. If you want to force him to take action as soon as possible, you have to use some extreme methods..." Shunzhi said: "What are you waiting for? Tell me quickly, don't keep it in your mouth! My dear will suck my appetite!"

Prince Fu paused and replied word by word: "Let the prince be established quickly!"

Shunzhi was stunned, his face immediately became dark and said, "What is this? Now that the prince is established, wouldn't it be the only way for some unjust people to think?"
