After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

Prince Chang felt more and more resentful. He thought his father was too partial to him. He treated him like this for the sake of a stupid and useless son.

"Your Majesty, I thought they were going to provide disaster relief supplies, so I said this."

Emperor Sheng took a deep breath and didn't want to talk to this stupid son. Being so stupid and still being so self-righteous was also a kind of skill.

Zhong Ling watched and shook her head. Prince Chang was becoming more and more arrogant and even his brain had become so stupid.

Even after the emperor said so much, Prince Chang still refused to step down and was still making excuses for himself.

"If you can't come up with a solution today," Emperor Sheng swept his eyes around with murderous intent, "everyone except the Crown Prince and Prince Chang will be punished with fifty strokes of the cane!"

"Those who can live will live, and those who cannot live will be thrown into a mass grave. I do not need officials who only know how to take their salaries and live lavishly without doing anything practical."

All the court officials present knew that the emperor was serious.

If they can't come up with a plan, then there will be a dead end waiting for them.

This shows how serious this drought is.

"Your Majesty, I feel..." Prince Chang just opened his mouth.

Emperor Sheng scolded him, "Shut up!"

"If you dare to say one more word, I will destroy you."

Prince Chang felt humiliated and embarrassed, as if everyone in the Golden Palace was laughing at him, which made him resent Emperor Sheng even more.

One day, when he inherits the throne, he will definitely dig up his father's bones and throw them into a mass grave, so that he will never rest in peace in the underground.

"Please forgive me, Father. I was wrong."

The court officials on Prince Chang's side all wanted to rush forward and wake Prince Chang up, saying, "Prince Chang, where has your brain gone?"

You shouldn't have spoken from the beginning, but you did and said such stupid things.

The key point is that the emperor has reprimanded you twice, and you still want to show up.

King Chang, do you think you won’t die soon enough so as not to implicate us?

Many court officials from Prince Chang's faction are already thinking of choosing a new master.

With such a stupid and self-righteous master, they will be killed sooner or later.

The prince glanced at Prince Chang twice more, and saw the resentment that still lingered on his face, and sighed in his heart.

I don’t know if it’s because King Chang has been patient for too long in the past, and now that he has no opponent, he no longer endures it and keeps doing such stupid things.

"Father, I believe that the most important thing right now is to find out the true extent of the drought."

He bowed and spoke clearly, "Until we understand the specific circumstances of the drought, no matter how many methods we have, they will be useless."

"In addition, we need to find out which areas have been severely affected."

"If the disaster area is serious, we must arrange for supplies to be sent there as soon as possible to prevent the victims from causing trouble."

Oh, oh, oh, he didn't want to stand out. He couldn't really make his father angry, right?

Poor him, his carefree days are gone and he has to live a miserable life full of intrigue all day long.

This was the first time the court officials saw the newly appointed crown prince in the Golden Palace.

Their impression of the prince was still that he was a brainless prince who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.

Now, after hearing what the prince said, they finally understood why the emperor wanted to make him the prince.

The prince's words were clear and logical, and they clearly outlined the current situation and provided a direction.

Prince Chang was so angry that his teeth were itching. It was just a bunch of nonsense. He would also say, "Prince, do you think this nonsense is useful?"

It's really ridiculous.

"Very good." Emperor Sheng's anger subsided a lot, and he looked at the Crown Prince with admiration, "Prince, continue."

He knew that his son had been hiding his incompetence since he was young.

If the prince didn't have some ability, he could still live safely in the cannibalistic palace, and his brothers and sisters would ignore him but not cause trouble for him.

Upon hearing this, Prince Chang's face twisted with hatred. His father was being partial!

In order to praise the prince, he actually said such words against his will.

The prince said, "Father, I think it would be best to ask those merchants who often travel for business..."

"Prince, merchants are of low status. How can the court ask merchants for advice?" Prince Chang thought he had caught the prince's mistake.

"Besides, this matter is of great importance. How can a lowly merchant know about it?"

The prince squinted at him and sneered, "Merchants are lowly?"

"Then King Chang should not use the goods sold by merchants, should not accept bribes from merchants, and should not engage in business."

King Chang was furious. "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever accept a bribe?"

The prince rolled his eyes. "You accepted bribes so openly. Did you really think no one knew?"

"Or do you think that you have the final say over the entire Rong Dynasty, and that no one can do anything to you even if you accept bribes?"

After both the deposed King Ding and the deposed King Xiaoyao met with disaster, King Chang no longer concealed his true identity. He openly tried to win over court officials, accept bribes, and even forced some merchants to give him countless silver coins.

Prince Chang treated himself as the next emperor and did whatever he wanted. He was truly brainless to the extreme.

Father is still here.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Emperor Sheng looked at Prince Chang with great dissatisfaction in his eyes.

It's not that he didn't know this, he just wanted to see how far Prince Chang would go.

Prince Chang hated the Crown Prince in his heart, but he cried out in injustice, "Your Majesty, please be clear, I have absolutely not done such a thing."

"The Crown Prince has wronged me. Please, Father, help me."

He was not accepting bribes, he was just exercising his rightful power in advance.

"Your Majesty, I have evidence here." The prince took out a piece of evidence from his sleeve and raised his hands above his head.

"Originally, I didn't want to do this, but Prince Chang insisted on causing trouble and even said it was unfair."

He had already found a lot of evidence of King Chang's crimes, but he just didn't reveal them.

He would investigate these things to protect himself.

Zhong Ling handed the information to the emperor.

"Father..." Prince Chang felt inexplicably anxious and tried to disrupt the rhythm.

Emperor Sheng ignored him and looked down at the information in his hand.

When he finished reading, he couldn't help but sneer, "Prince Chang, you really act like an emperor, forcing some merchants to present you with gold, silver, jewelry, and all kinds of goodies, and requiring your court officials to do everything you say."

After King Xiaoyao was deposed, King Chang was already accepting gifts. He was certain that he would be the next heir to the throne.

Prince Chang didn't understand where the prince got this evidence, but he knew that this was something that could not be acknowledged.

"Father, I am innocent."

He looked pitiful, as if he had been wronged. "Father, you know my character best..."

"I do understand your character." Emperor Sheng said meaningfully.

Before a smile appeared in Prince Chang's eyes, Emperor Sheng's next words made him feel cold all over.

"You've been known for forbearance and using others to scheme since you were little. Over the years, you've used these schemes to frame the deposed Prince Ding. Do you think I don't know?"
