However, the commander's seal to command 100,000 iron cavalry was given to Li Rui. Was this to make him the Crown Prince?
But since ancient times, who would dare to give military power to a crown prince?
This was 100,000 cavalry!
With 100,000 cavalry and the position of Crown Prince, they could threaten the throne at any time.
Li Mao panicked. He knew that Li Rui's 100,000 soldiers were more important than the position of Crown Prince.
The position of Crown Prince could be abolished just like that.
The power of 100,000 soldiers fell into the hands of Li Rui.
The next day, 100,000 elites would surround Chang 'an and force Li Longji to abdicate.
However, Li Rui would not do that. He had to let Li Longji hold on for another two years.
With Li Longji in power, he could intimidate the eight provincial governors. Now that Li Rui's reputation was not good, if he were to forcefully ascend the throne, the provincial governors would probably not listen to him.
At that time, the country would be unstable!
In short, Li Rui would not ascend to the throne rashly before he was fully prepared.
Li Rui, this little fox, was smarter than a monkey without fur.
Along the way, Li Mao was in a daze, muttering that it was impossible.
In the main hall of Xingqing Palace, all the civil and military officials were present. All the princes in the capital had arrived, and only Li Rui was waiting.
Gao Lishi entered the hall and knelt down.”
Li Longji frowned slightly. Lin Jiulang and the others were secretly delighted. The Sage really didn't like the Prince of Liang.
Then, Li Longji said in a dignified manner," Li Mao, your mother is seriously ill. Instead of visiting her, you are here. The Tubo army has invaded the border of the Tang Empire. What use are you?"”
As soon as Li Mao entered the hall, he was reprimanded by Li Longji in public. His face was pale and cold sweat dripped down.
Li Rui's gaze was playful. He knew that in this year, Consort Wu Hui had died from a serious illness.
Li Mao hurriedly knelt down." Your son is incompetent. I can't share Imperial Father's worries!"”
"Get down!" Li Longji shouted coldly, and Li Mao dodged to the side.
Li Rui lazily walked up to the hall and looked around. The officials felt their scalps go numb and all lowered their heads, not daring to look at each other.
Li Longji's expression softened." My son, Li Rui, is here. Please have a seat!"”
Of all the officials in the court, only Li Rui was given a seat. Li Ying, Li Ju, and the other princes were present!
Li Rui looked at the stool and felt more and more awkward. He turned around and kicked it.
He was kicked away!
Lin Jiulang was dumbfounded, and Li Ying's eyes widened.
Was he preparing to wreak havoc in the court again?
" There can only be one throne in the hall," Li Rui said indifferently." I'm not interested in these small stools."”
"How dare you!"
"Impudent!"
Lin Jiulang and the others reprimanded him in shock and anger.
Li Rui naturally did not care. Li Longji said with a dark face,""If you don't want to sit, then stand and discuss the matter. Tang Jiahui, tell me how you were defeated by the Tubo people!”
In the court, Tang Jiahui knelt down and cried,"The saints don't know. Originally, I was facing a 100,000-strong Tibetan army attacking the city. At that time, I asked the King of Liang to help me by attacking the Tibetan rear and burning the rations. However, the King of Liang abandoned me and missed the opportunity, causing our army to be defeated!”
Lin Jiulang cupped his fists." I have something to report. Last night, thousands of soldiers were hidden in the Liang Imperial Residence with ill intentions!"”
The Imperial Censor Shi Zuo said,"The courtyard has thousands of elite soldiers. They can directly threaten the safety of a Saint. They must be strictly investigated!"”
"Sage, the Prince of Liang is arrogant and unyielding. We are constantly in a state of anxiety, and it is difficult for us to work for the Great Tang in peace!”
"Sage, please investigate the Liang King!"
……
The ministers knelt down and colluded to force Li Longji to investigate Li Rui.
Tang Jiahui sneered in her heart. With the reason he mentioned, Li Rui would definitely be investigated and locked up in prison.
At that time, Prime Minister Lin would bribe the jailer and force Li Rui to hang himself in prison.
Most of the officials were sneering. Today, they wanted to force Li Rui to his death.
Li Rui's expression was indifferent. He picked up a scattered stool leg and walked towards Lin Jiulang.
Gao Lishi's face turned green.”
Li Longji flew into a rage.”
Lin Jiulang's legs went weak, and he retreated with a trembling voice.""What are you doing?"
"Did you take the lead in singing this song for me?”
Li Rui picked up the leg of the stool and fiercely beat Lin Jiulang under the courtyard.
The dignified Right Prime Minister was beaten up like a dead dog by Li Rui. He crawled on the ground and wailed incessantly.
There was also the Imperial Censor Shi Zuo and the Minister of Rites Zhang.
"Enough!" Li Longji slammed the table and roared.”
"Impeachment?" Li Rui stopped and said disdainfully. Let this king see who else impeaches this king!”
The hall fell silent, and no one dared to make a sound.
Li Rui shouted coldly," Tang Jiahui, what a vicious dog. You're a dignified general who guards an area, but you're actually a low-class villain. How dare you bite me back!"”
"Saint, the Liang Emperor insulted me!" Tang Jiahui continued to complain.
However, Li Rui didn't fall for it!
In this month, Li Rui had been impeached every day. Who in the entire court had not impeached Li Rui?
Li Rui turned around and snatched the saber from the Golden Guard's waist before entering the hall.
Li Longji didn't panic at all. He knew that his youngest son, although unruly and rude, couldn't be unruly.
However, Li Rui had one thing in mind, and that was his father, Li Longji.
And what Li Longji felt most at ease about was that Li Rui had said that he would never be a traitor to the Great Tang!
Tang Jiahui angrily rebuked,"Prince Liang, how can you mess around in the main hall!"”
