To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the emperor.

I want to make Prince Shen the crown prince. Emperor Xu took a deep breath and stood there in a daze, as if there was something stuck in his throat. He couldn't even say these words. He met Changrong's expectant eyes and unconsciously clenched his fingers.

He shouldn't have passed the throne to Changrong.

He looked at the prince.

Xu Qihuai was also looking at the person in a higher position.

Stay calm and be confident.

Emperor Xu pursed his lips and said, "I will appoint the third prince Xu Qihuai as the crown prince."

As soon as he finished speaking, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was worthy of being the emperor, but not worthy of being a father. He lowered his noble head and did not dare to look directly into Xu Cairong's eyes.

The ministers knelt one after another, "Your Majesty is wise."

Xu Qihuai's heart was pounding: "Thank you, father."

On the field, there were only two people who did not kneel.

Jiusu doesn't require kneeling.

The other was Xu Cairong, his eyes filled with confusion, anger, and incomprehension. He took a half step back, his voice trembling as he tried to remind Emperor Xu: "Father, you...what did you say?"

Emperor Xu's voice tightened. "I have decided to reinstate the Crown Prince. Cai Rong, you are both brave and resourceful. You must assist the Crown Prince well."

He looked at Eunuch Shang.

Eunuch Shang understood, stepped forward, and said, "Dismiss the court!"

As soon as the emperor left, all the ministers came to the scene and bowed to the prince in congratulations.

The people of King Shen were like eggplants hit by frost, hesitating to move forward. They did not dare to go forward to congratulate the prince, nor did they dare to go forward to comfort King Shen. They could only stand around and watch what would happen.

Prime Minister Zhou said calmly, "Go back first."

Xu Cairong followed Prime Minister Zhou dejectedly. He caught a glimpse of many people surrounding Xu Qihuai. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, "Don't get complacent too soon."

Pull yourself away from the congratulations.

Xu Qihuai winked at Jiang Jing and the others, and they sat in the same carriage. It seemed like the dethronement and enthronement of the crown prince happened in a flash, but he still felt it was a dream.

"I thought Father would make Xu Cairong the crown prince."

Jiusu said: "The emperor can't get past the Xu family."

"Yes." Xu Qihuai suppressed the joy in his heart and remained calm, "But what should we do next? Xu Cairong will not sit idly by and wait for death."

Jiang Jing straightened his sleeves and thought.

"The golden token is still in the hands of Prince Shen. Your Highness can send someone to get it and see if he gives it to you."

Xu Qihuai slightly opened the window curtain and ordered, "Liangyu, go ask Prince Shen for the golden medal and arrow, and then bring the memorial here. Remember, you must be cautious and prudent, and don't make Prince Shen unhappy."

Liang Yu took the order and ran straight to Prince Shen's palace. He took three quick steps and clasped his hands together, "Greetings, Prince Shen. I'm here to receive the golden medal and arrow by the order of the Crown Prince."

Xu Cairong and Prime Minister Zhou looked at each other.

Xu Cairong's face darkened, and he put his hands behind his back, trying not to get angry. "Okay, I understand. You can go back first. I'll pack it up and send someone to the Crown Prince's Mansion."

He didn't care whether Liang Yutong agreed or not and went straight into the mansion with the prime minister.

As soon as the door of the mansion was closed, Xu Cairong started cursing.

"Ah! Why did Father lie to me! What's so good about Xu Qihuai? Why did he become the Crown Prince? You want the golden medal and the arrow? It's impossible!"

Prime Minister Zhou said calmly, "Prince Shen, please be patient."

He looked around and whispered.

Xu Cairong's eyes flickered with confusion. As Prime Minister Zhou finished speaking, he clenched his fist, no longer hesitated, and revealed a look of joy: "What the Prime Minister said is exactly what I was thinking!"

Liang Yu brought the news back.

The prince's mansion was filled with staff.

Jiang Jing said, "It seems that Prince Shen doesn't want to hand over the token."

Ma Yuan clenched his fist and leaned slightly from his seat: "If you don't hand over the token, wouldn't that be rebellion?"

"He is indeed planning to rebel." Jiusu held her chin with her hand, sleepiness welling up in her eyes. She really admired the ancients' work and rest habits; they were so energetic. "With the token in hand, if I don't fight, once I hand it over, I'll have no chance anymore."

Hear the words.

Xu Qihuai immediately stood up and said, "Liang Yu, keep an eye on Prince Shen's mansion and the movements of the military camp. If Prince Shen takes action, we will take action immediately."

He turned around, looked at his trusted staff, and bowed.

"Thank you all for being on call at all times these days."

They quickly stood up, bending even lower than the Crown Prince: "Your Highness, your words are too kind. We swear to serve you until our death."

Finally, at midnight the next day.

Liang Yu brought the news, and King Shen took action.

Jiusu put on his coat and grabbed Jiang Jing's sleeve: "Ajing, you must be careful and don't fall for Xu Cairong's trick. I'll wait for you at home."

Hearing this, Jiang Jing nodded.

He entered the palace with his father, and turned back to give his worried instructions: "Be sure to lock the door. If a thief breaks in by force, remember to hide in the secret passage and don't come out until I come back."

Zhou Nuanmei said, "Don't worry, I will protect Su'er and Nianyin."

As a mother, she must be strong and be fully prepared.

From afar, the palace was dotted with stars inside and outside.

[Congratulations to the host, you received 1 life-extending pill by 'worshiping the God of Wealth' (click to view details)]

Jiusu hesitated for a moment and entered the system to check the details. A dying person could extend his life by five minutes after taking this medicine. She took a deep breath and alarmed Jiang's mother and Nian Yin.

Jiang Nianyin asked: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Jiusu said in a deep voice: "Someone is going to die tonight."

"Rebellion will definitely result in casualties, don't worry, sister-in-law." Jiang Nianyin comforted.

Jiusu looked out the window into the distance: "I'm afraid that someone important will die tonight."

Could it be Xu Cairong?

Hopefully it's him.

But if it really was him, she would definitely not give him the life-extending pill.

Jiusu's eyes suddenly turned cold: "No, I have to go to the palace."

Zhou Nuanmei knew that her daughter-in-law was always knowledgeable and insightful. She stood up and said, "Susu, I'll accompany you."

Jiusu had already changed into neat clothes. She shook her head and said, "It's more convenient for me to go by myself. Mother, you stay at home. We still need you to stabilize the whole family."

She left a flare and took Zhongqin to the palace.

All the guards in the palace were replaced by Xu Cairong's men.

When they saw the prince, they immediately drew their bows and shot him to death.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, bows and arrows were fired.

Jiang Jing chopped it off with his sword, and his arm was wounded. "Protect the prince and fight your way into the palace."

Behind me, there was the sound of horse hooves.

Bai Zhenan led his troops to the palace, pointing his sword at it: "Open the palace gates! Otherwise, you will die!"

He rode forward and clasped his fists towards the prince.

"Your Highness, be careful."

In the emperor's bedroom, facing the sudden appearance of his youngest son, Emperor Xu thought something had happened and hurriedly put on his coat. Before he could react, the door was kicked open.

"Cai, Cairong?" he shouted in confusion.

Xu Cairong closed the door.

Emperor Xu quickly took a step back and asked warily, "Why are you entering the palace in armor? Have you forgotten that you can't bring a sword into the palace? Are you tired of living?"

Xu Cairong's eyes were red, and he held the hilt of the knife and approached step by step.

The closer he got, the more clearly Emperor Xu could see that Prince Shen was covered in blood.

Emperor Xu walked around behind the table and warned, "Get out! I order you out! How dare you trespass into the palace in the middle of the night without my summons? Xu Cairong, who gave you the guts?"
