Li Chengqian usually acts arbitrarily, so he doesn't need to explain anything to anyone. The guards of the Eastern Palace also understand this. No matter how glorious Hou Er was the moment before, if he went against Li Chengqian's wishes, he could be beheaded at any time.
"Inform the Dali Temple and tell them that this person set up a private mourning hall in the Eastern Palace and spread rumors. They are to investigate and try the case. Anyone involved can be taken away at any time without reporting."
Seeing that Li Chengqian had no further response, Li Xiang had to stand up. He didn't want to go against the Crown Princess so early, but if this matter was not handled properly, it would sooner or later become a loophole for others to attack the Eastern Palace.
Li Xiang was really cruel in doing this. Not only was Hou Er finished, but all the other Hou clan members in the Eastern Palace had close contacts with this person. According to Li Xiang's words, no one else could survive.
Li Xiang had a reason for doing this. The new palace would take at least another one to two years to complete, based on the pace of the times. During this time, he would have to live in the East Palace. If the palace was filled with people from the Hou family, who would be able to get used to it? This was a good opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop.
"How dare you! Who gave you the right to dispose of my family? Just because you went to the Imperial Palace, you can give orders to the East Palace. Who the hell do you think you are? You lowly thing."
When facing Li Chengqian, the Crown Princess did not dare to act recklessly, but when she saw that the usually submissive bastard had suddenly become arrogant, how could she tolerate it? Not to mention that he wanted to wipe out all her people.
The figure of the Crown Princess suddenly appeared in Li Xiang's memory, but nothing good happened.
For example, when he was sick as a child, the Crown Princess delayed calling the imperial physician. If he had not been lucky, he would probably have gone to the King of Hell at that time.
And the palace maids around me are all vixens, dreaming of crippling me at the age of thirteen. Fortunately, the previous owner of this body had strong willpower, otherwise it would be a different question whether I would have children in the future.
"Father?"
Li Xiang also realized that he could no longer command anyone, whether it was the servants or the guards in the East Palace. If he wanted to do anything, he had to rely on Li Chengqian next to him. As for the Crown Princess with a ferocious look on her face, Li Xiang didn't even look at her.
Li Xiang also felt a sense of crisis and had to quickly arrange his own talents. Fortunately, the system rewarded a lot of people. By firing these people, he could also find a place for his own people.
Li Chengqian was born in the royal family. Although he has been acting a little crazy recently, there is nothing wrong with his brain. Especially after he was almost deposed today, he finally figured it out. There is such a mourning hall in the East Palace, and someone must take the blame. This is not only to pave the way for his son, but also for his own head.
In the past, if a general manager was pushed out, he might not be able to take the blame, and Li Tai and his people would urge officials to continue the investigation. However, his son is now in the limelight, and even if some people want to take advantage of the situation, they have to consider their own weight.
This can be said to be the best opportunity. If we miss it, we will never have it again. It will be of great benefit to the entire Eastern Palace if we put an end to this matter now.
"My Lord, these are all people who have followed me for many years. Even if they have not made any contributions, they have worked hard in the Eastern Palace. If we banish them all, will there be anyone who will work hard for us in the future?"
Seeing the hesitant look in the prince's eyes, the princess was shocked. She didn't know what had happened this morning. In the past, no matter what Li Xiang said, the prince didn't even listen, but today he was considering it carefully. Could it be that the situation outside had changed?
"Do as Xiang'er says. Detain all those involved and await the official documents from the Dali Temple."
After weighing the pros and cons, Li Chengqian said this, and the guards immediately began to act, arresting people throughout the entire Eastern Palace. For a time, there was chaos everywhere, and all the people from the marquis' family were not spared. The Crown Princess almost fainted.
"Father, a little impatience can ruin a great plan."
I thought the matter was over, but Li Xiang took a step forward and pointed at the mourning hall in the house and said.
Now everyone was dumbfounded. They thought that it was understandable that the eldest young master was going against the Crown Princess, but they didn't expect that even the Crown Prince would not be spared. Everyone knew that setting up a mourning hall privately in the Eastern Palace was a serious crime, but the Crown Prince was the king of the Eastern Palace, and no one could stop him from doing what he wanted. Now you actually want the Crown Prince to remove the mourning hall. This was the Crown Prince's most beloved daughter, Chengxin, who was sentenced to death by the Emperor, but the Crown Prince did not forget it.
"dismantle."
It can be seen that Li Chengqian is quite attentive to this person. When he said this word, his eyes were closed and his fists were clenched, as if he was cutting his flesh.
Everyone in the Eastern Palace swallowed their saliva, unable to believe what they were seeing. In the past, even when Hou Junji came to persuade him personally, the prince would not listen. Could the eldest young master's words be so effective now?
Crazy, this must be crazy!
When the Crown Princess, who was in a coma, heard this sentence, she could only use this word to characterize the Crown Prince. Otherwise, how could a father obey his son's words?
"The imperial edict has arrived, Prince Chengping receives it..."
When the first imperial edict arrived at the Eastern Palace, in addition to reading out the things that happened in the court, various rewards were also carried in. It took more than 30 eunuchs two trips to carry all the things in. The front hall of the Eastern Palace was already full. This was the first time such a grand occasion had occurred since the establishment of the Eastern Palace.
Prince Chengping?
Our eldest grandson?
There was nothing strange about being named a prince, after all, he was the emperor's grandson, but being given so many rewards was something that no one had ever heard of. Some old people in the Eastern Palace knew this best. When Li Chengqian was named the crown prince, the Eastern Palace was not given so many things.
"The Imperial Edict has arrived. Fengyi Liu, for her dignified demeanor, self-discipline, harmonious relationship with the imperial court, and effective parenting, is hereby granted the title of Fifth Rank Liangyuan and awarded..."
A woman in simple clothes came up tremblingly from the crowd to receive the order. In Li Xiang's memory, this person was his mother. Although she was unknown in history, she loved him very much.
A fifth-rank lady?
Hearing this, the Crown Princess's teeth were almost bleeding. Was the Emperor going senile? She was promoted four levels in a flash, and after being conferred the title of Fifth Rank, she would be eligible to follow him into the palace and be able to entertain the officials of the Eastern Palace. This would be like being the second hostess. But with her background, was she worthy of it?
If it hadn't happened in front of everyone, the Crown Princess would have been so angry that she would have gone up and scratched Liu's face.
Are you a good parent?
Um?
Is it related to this little bastard? What did he do today?
