Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

In the court, the Censorate and all the officials started to protest.

Chu Ning was in the storm, isolated and helpless.

The Minister of Revenue Liu Shouren and the Minister of Rites Deng Hongwen have been transferred by the emperor.

At this moment, Chu Ning was alone facing all the officials!

Facing the aggressive and threatening civil and military ministers, Chu Ning remained indifferent.

The prince looked at Chu Ning who was silent, with a hint of amusement on his face.

You were allowed to be so arrogant. Now that you have lost your position as general, and Liu Shouren and Deng Hongwen have all been transferred, let's see how arrogant you can be.

However, we can’t let the fourth brother steal the limelight this time!

The prince, who had been robbed of the limelight twice in a row, narrowed his eyes and pretended to be displeased: "Eighteenth brother, now everyone is impeaching Han Xing and Di Wenyao, do you still want to defend these two people?

Or, were you the one who ordered the two of them to hide Zhao's spoils of war?"

As long as Chu Ning's guilt is proven, he will surely be overthrown and will never be able to recover.

When the Fourth Prince Chu Ying saw that the Crown Prince was anxious to take action, a strange smile appeared on his face, but he did not speak in agreement.

The prince was fooled!

He deliberately interrupted to speak twice in a row just now, just to give the prince the illusion that he was stealing the limelight.

Otherwise, how could the prince be so active in dealing with Chu Ning.

The fish has been hooked, and all he has to do is wait for the two to fight until they are both injured.

While thinking, Chu Ning turned to look at the prince, his face expressionless: "Brother Prince, if you think this matter was instigated by me, why don't you report it to me."

"Do you think I dare not?"

The prince's eyes widened as he shouted angrily, "You killed General He Qingyun and wiped out the entire He family since you returned to the capital. Now you have instructed the generals on the front line to hide the spoils of war, and you even shielded them after the truth was revealed!

For such a serious crime, I'm sure your father will not let you off easily!"

Chu Ning smiled contemptuously: "Really? Then I will wait for the impeachment memorial from my brother, the Crown Prince."

He turned to look at Wei Xun and asked in a cold voice: "Sir Wei, do you want to get involved in this matter?"

"This……"

Wei Xun, who had already realized that he had been tricked by the prince, looked slightly unhappy and hesitated for a moment.

If they followed the prince in impeaching Chu Ning, the Censorate would be seen as the prince's faction in the eyes of outsiders.

Regardless of whether they deny it or not, in the eyes of others, they have joined forces with the Crown Prince to target the King of Chu!

But if they did not follow the prince to impeach Chu Ning now, their impeachment today would be a joke.

At this moment, Wei Xun, who had always been upright, was in a dilemma.

The prince raised his eyebrows when he saw this: "Master Wei, if my eighteenth brother has done something wrong, why can't you, as the Imperial Censor, impeach him?"

Given the situation, he had to force Wei Xun to his side.

But although Wei Xun is upright, he is not stupid.

At this moment, there was no way he would continue to board the prince's pirate ship.

"Your Highness, there is currently no evidence that the King of Chu instigated Han Xing and Di Wenyao. I, the Censorate, will only impeach Han Xing and Di Wenyao!"

Wei Xun reacted and said in a deep voice: "As for His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, the clan affairs office will naturally handle it."

As soon as these words came out, the prince's face changed slightly.

I didn’t expect that old guy Wei Xun wouldn’t be fooled!

In this way, the Censorate will not follow him in impeaching Chu Ning!

Sensing that something was not right, the prince said in a cold voice: "Master Wei is right, this matter should indeed be investigated by the clan affairs office!

Someone, go and inform Uncle Qin Wang, and tell him..."

"and many more!"

Chu Ning suddenly interrupted: "Brother Crown Prince, do you want the clan office to investigate me?"

"Of course!"

The prince said confidently: "Whether you killed He Qingyun or instructed Han Xing and Di Wenyao, we must investigate it thoroughly.

The Censorate doesn't dare to impeach you because they have no evidence. Once the clan office finds evidence, I believe Lord Wei will definitely write to the emperor, right, Lord Wei?"

After saying the last sentence, the prince turned to look at Wei Xun.

Wei Xun had a gloomy face, lowered his head, trying not to let others see his expression, and said in a low voice:

"The duty of the Censorate is to inspect all officials, including the princes. If there is evidence that this matter is related to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, I will naturally write to His Majesty!"

"very good!"

The prince laughed: "Eighteenth brother, did you hear that?"

"heard it."

Chu Ning sneered: "But there is one thing I don't understand, I would like to ask the prince brother to enlighten me."

The prince said disdainfully: "Just say it if you have something to say."

Chu Ning raised his right index finger, turned it around the scene, and finally landed on the fourth prince Chu Ying, and said calmly:

"My father has instructed that my fourth brother should be the regent. I don't know why the crown prince wants to take over and deal with this matter in such a hurry."

"Could it be that the Crown Prince thinks that Fourth Brother's supervision of the country is not good for you, so you want to steal the credit?"

The Fourth Prince wants to stay out of it?

impossible!

Since you want to join forces, no one will have an easy time.

The Crown Prince is so anxious to deal with this matter, doesn't the Fourth Prince worry that his credit will be snatched away?

Who doesn’t know how to sow discord?

The prince's face changed slightly when he heard this.

This damn guy actually wanted to alienate the relationship between him and the fourth brother.

I just don’t know how the fourth brother expressed his gratitude.

The prince frowned and turned to look at the fourth prince.

But the Fourth Prince had a cold face and said in a deep voice: "Eighteenth brother, please don't sow discord. The Crown Prince is the heir to the throne. Even if I establish a country, there are some things that I can only listen to the Crown Prince."

For the sake of the overall situation, just bear with it for now!

He must not let Chu Ning alienate the relationship between him and the prince, otherwise it would be detrimental to the next action.

Upon hearing this, the prince breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, He Peng also took the initiative to stand up, staring at Chu Ning with a mocking face: "King Chu, now we are talking about your problem, don't talk about other things!

You are clearly trying to sow discord between the two princes. Do you think they can't see it?

Humph, no matter which prince gave the order, the clan office will investigate the matter, so just wait for the investigation!"

The hatred of killing a son is irreconcilable!

Seeing the chance today, he would force Chu Ning into a dead end completely.

But Chu Ning said calmly: "Whether to investigate this prince or not, it is not up to the Crown Prince to decide. It is not up to you, a mere Minister of Works, to decide either!"

"is it?"

He Peng sneered: "The old King of Qin has always been concerned about the safety of the Chu State. Now you, the King of Chu, have hidden the spoils for your own selfish desires. Do you think the old King of Qin will let you go?"

The prince narrowed his eyes at this moment, waved his hand, and ordered: "Why are you still standing there? Go inform the old King Qin!"

The soldier responded and immediately went to inform the old King Qin.

But Chu Ning was not in a hurry. Instead, he stood there with a calm expression, as if he was not worried about the matter at all.

The prince couldn't stand seeing Chu Ning so calm and composed. He felt that Chu Ning was pretending!

"Eighteenth brother, if you confess now, perhaps the emperor and the old King Qin will be able to let you go because of your military exploits!"

If Chu Ning could take the initiative to plead guilty, things would be much easier.

But Chu Ning chuckled, with a hint of amusement on his face.

Just then, a sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the hall.

Then, a soldier shouted, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness the Fourth Prince, urgent military information has been received from Bingzhou within 800 miles!"

Everyone was stunned.

Bingzhou borders the State of Zhao, but the State of Zhao has been destroyed. Where can Bingzhou get any military intelligence at this moment?
