The waste prince is so fierce

However, he was reluctant to say more.

Let this matter go!

"Report! Your Majesty, the Dali Temple has found the suspect in this case!"

At this moment, the eunuch's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.

Kangdi was immediately excited when he heard this: "Bring him in!"

"According to the order!"

The eunuch took the order and pushed a young man in.

"I, the guilty minister Chai Jiancheng, pay my respects to the emperor." Li Jiancheng knelt on the ground and said loudly.

"Chai Jiancheng, you are so bold! You actually assassinated my own son?"

Looking at Li Jiancheng, Emperor Kang became furious and wished he could tear him into pieces immediately.

Chai Jiancheng lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

"Forgive me? Why should I forgive you?" Emperor Kang snorted coldly, "You almost killed my heir! Do you think I will forgive you?"

"Your Majesty, calm down."

"Calm down?!"

Emperor Kang's eyes widened as he shouted angrily, "If I don't execute you today, am I still worthy of being the ruler of a country?!"

"His Majesty!"

Chai Jiancheng suddenly raised his head and looked directly into Kangdi's eyes: "You don't really think that under your management, my Great Kanghai will be peaceful and prosperous, right?"

Kangdi's face turned pale and he said loudly: "What do you mean?"

Chai Jiancheng raised a mocking arc at the corner of his mouth: "Your Majesty, you were a man of great strategy and wisdom in those days, and your civil and military skills were unmatched, but now..."

"You are already old!"

"Your body, your mind, even your intellect..."

“It’s already declining!”

Emperor Kang said angrily: "Chai Jiancheng! How dare you slander me?"

"slander?"

Chai Jiancheng smiled coldly: "Your Majesty, ask yourself, are you still the same talented and heroic man you were before?"

"You have been blinded by power!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Kang was greatly shocked.

"impossible!"

Emperor Kang flatly refused, saying: "I am indeed old, but I have never forgotten my responsibilities. The prosperity of Dakang is my responsibility. I have never forgotten it!"

Chai Jiancheng sneered, "Your so-called prosperity is actually supported by those royal families. Why do you think those noble families support you? Because they are afraid that after you die of old age, they will not be able to protect the vast country, let alone guarantee their own wealth!!"

Kangdi's face became increasingly gloomy.

If just now, Kangdi was just guessing and suspecting Chai Jiancheng.

At this moment, Kangdi finally confirmed that his Dakang was sick.

The parasites are those nobles who talk big in the court.

Or rather, those royal nobles!!

They controlled the financial lifeline of the entire country and had to pay huge taxes to the royal family every month. At the same time, they relied on their status and position to unscrupulously extort money from the people and seize the hard-earned money of the people.

Under normal circumstances, Kangdi completely prohibits such behavior!

He even sent troops to fight and severely punish corrupt officials and nobles.

However, this is only for ordinary people.

Deal with these royal nobles who hold tremendous power and have powerful backgrounds.

Conti had no way to deal with them.

After all, Emperor Kangdi only has the blood of the royal family, and no one else is his blood.

Kangdi can't do anything to those people!

So, we can only choose to turn a blind eye.

but……

Today, Conti is old!

He no longer has the energy to take care of those things!

Especially recently, his health has been getting worse and worse, his head is dizzy, and he always feels that there are countless ghosts hanging around him. It seems that there are many things that want to get into his body.

This made Kangdi extremely terrified!

He was worried that he would die suddenly one day, which would affect the succession to the throne and the royal bloodline!

Therefore, Kangdi plans to completely get rid of these parasites before the oil runs out and the lamp goes out.

Only in this way can he sleep peacefully!

Unfortunately, what Kangdi didn’t know was that his every move had already fallen into the eyes of those who were interested.

Therefore, Conti’s secret has already been exposed to everyone.

"Chai Jiancheng, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"I am the ruler of a country. How can I be frightened by a small noble family?"

"Don't try to sow discord between me and my clan!"

Kangdi's face was grim.

"Haha, it seems that His Majesty does not realize the seriousness of the problem."

Chai Jiancheng snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, do you really think that the royal family's children only care about pleasure and are useless? Your Majesty, you are wrong. Over the years, except for that useless Ninth Prince, who among your sons is not ambitious?"

"If they were restrained when the late emperor passed away, now they have begun to stir!"

"Your Majesty, don't forget that you are still alive!"

"As long as you are alive, they will never dare to do anything rash!"

"But, given time... when you really grow old, they will definitely jump out to fight for the throne! By then, the entire Dakang will surely fall into turmoil."

"And at this time, what do you have left?"

Kangdi's face turned pale and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Every word of Chai Jiancheng's words is heart-wrenching!

"How could I let these evildoers succeed!" Emperor Kang stared at Chai Jiancheng with gritted teeth and said coldly, "Chai Jiancheng, you actually dared to plot against me at my birthday banquet! What crime should you be punished for?"

“Hahaha.” Chai Jiancheng laughed wildly toward the sky: “Your Majesty, stop pretending!”

"You are not old and confused at all. On the contrary, you are very clear-headed. You also know that the children of the royal family are ambitious and have long been dissatisfied with their positions. They all want to sit on the throne!"

"In this case, you should kill the chicken to scare the monkeys!"

Kangdi's expression changed.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember how you treated those children from noble families sixteen years ago?"

"Back then... they were all your relatives!!"

Kangdi's eyes widened suddenly: "It's you?"

"hehe."

Chai Jiancheng smiled faintly: "I am their great uncle!"

"Your Majesty, if you want to blame someone, you can only blame those royal children for being too smart. They actually found me! Moreover, they promised to give me benefits and support me to become the prime minister!"

“So, I agreed to their request.”

"As long as you help them seize the power of Dakang, I will have endless wealth and glory."

"Tell me who that person is!!!"

Kangdi stared at Chai Jiancheng in front of him and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

"Want to know? Hahaha! If you beg me, I might even show mercy and tell you, the Son of Heaven!!"

In the hall, Chai Jiancheng looked like a madman with disheveled hair, and spoke to Emperor Kangdi.

At this time, Li Quan, who was lying next to him, was looking at the scene in front of him coldly.

I sighed softly in my heart.

He knew that the current Dakang was rotten to the core.

If no reforms were made, it would only be a matter of time before Dakang was destroyed.

Li Quan couldn't help but sigh.

Although he was not a famous official or a good general, he had seen a lot of ups and downs.

Today's Dakang is like a bellows that is about to collapse and may explode at any time.

And he is in this vortex full of dangers.

If you are not careful, you may be smashed to pieces!

Li Quan was secretly calculating in his mind.

It suddenly occurred to him that perhaps he had another way out.

Become prime minister through business.
