The Royal Forest Park has a radius of hundreds of miles, and hunting is just one of them. The scenery here is also very good, and there is the emperor's palace. During the hot summer, Zhao Zhi would occasionally stay here for a few days.

Although the palace is very large, it can only accommodate thousands of visitors. Therefore, people below the fifth rank can only camp out in tents. Li Xun was assigned to two rooms from the third rank, and one room was given to You Min.

, in the other room, Li Xun and Jiang Daxiong lived together, which was not too crowded.

When they arrived at the room, Ouyang Li and Jiang Daxiong were sitting there chatting. Li Xun ignored them and sat on the bed, took out Fan Zhongyun's letter from his arms, opened it and read it quietly.

The content of the letter was not much, but Li Xun read it many times. Finally, in silence, Li Xun slowly tore the letter into pieces and fell into deep thought.

Fan Zhongyun only raised one point in his mind. Now that the crown prince's position is free, it seems that King Qi and King Chu have the greatest advantage. But in fact, the reason why King Qi can compete with King Chu is that Zhao Zhi fully supports him behind the scenes.

Therefore, the resistance of King Chu was not actually King Qi, but his biological father, Zhao Zhi.

If King Qi falls, who will Zhao Zhi choose? As the eldest son, King Yi has outstanding abilities, so his opportunity will come.

Fan Zhongyun raised a question in the letter. King Yi began to use all his strength to deal with King Qi. Are there any figures from King Chu and the Yang family among them? If so, Zhao Zhi may not be able to tolerate King Yi. If not, it is a normal right.

Competition, King Yi used to do this, Zhao Zhi didn't like it, and transferred him to Hedong. Now, a fire broke out in the palace, Zhao Zhi almost died, all the signs pointed to King Qi, no matter how much Zhao Zhi dotes on him, he must be in his heart

A grudge will arise, and when there is a grudge, there will be distance.

Zhao Zhi has been the emperor for so many years, and his imperial skills and moral conduct are very deep. The court needs balance, and so many princes also need balance. Only in this way can Zhao Zhi's throne be secure.

In fact, in the past two years, with the recovery of the country's power, Zhao Zhi already has certain absolute rights. He can force King Qi to be the crown prince, but is this okay?

No matter who sits on the throne of the prince, the current stable situation in the court may immediately become violent and turbulent. Zhao Zhi has seven sons, five of whom are already adults. Whoever becomes the prince, the rest of the princes,

I will never remain indifferent and wait for death.

But Zhao Zhi can't delay it much longer. He is already over sixty, how long can he live, five years or ten years?

If the position of the prince is vacant for a long time, it will only aggravate the division among the ministers. Of course, if the prince is established, the situation may be more intense, but at least it will give people a goal and they will be able to distinguish who is who.

As it is now, the Yang family and one party dominate, and the rest of the people have their own thoughts. It is difficult for even Zhao Zhi to see clearly who is a human and who is a ghost.

A sudden knock on the door pulled Li Xun out of his thoughts.

Jiang Daxiong stepped forward and opened the door. A middle-aged man looked inside, then raised his hands and said: "Sir, the emperor's emissary has arrived. The banquet will start in half an hour. I'm here to inform you, so as not to disturb the guests."

You sir have forgotten the time."

This middle-aged man is a petty official. He said this, but in fact he came here specifically to call for people at this time. The people who can live in the palace are at least fifth-rank officials. They look familiar, so why not?

It's not a bad thing, but at this time, most people went to the main venue more than ten miles away. There were very few people staying in the palace. He traveled to many places, but there was no one in the room.

Li Xun asked Da Xiong to give him a few taels of silver, then stood up and said, "Ouyang Li stays, Jiang Da Xiong will go to the banquet with me."

"Yes, lord."

Ouyang Li responded with his hands raised, saying that he should be left behind to take care of You Min. Moreover, he had prisoner's handwriting engraved on his face, so he was not suitable to appear in that kind of situation.

"Boss, I'm full, can you not go?"

Jiang Daxiong rubbed his head. He had been to that kind of occasion with Li Xun once. All the people present were dignitaries. He couldn't do anything except stand aside. It was very boring, so he didn't want to go.

"Everyone else is surrounded by their entourage. Isn't it embarrassing for me to go there alone? Stop talking nonsense and follow me."

Li Xun glared at him and walked away. Jiang Daxiong had a grimace on his face and was about to follow him when Ouyang Li suddenly grabbed him and whispered: "Take this guy with you, just in case."

Jiang Daxiong was stunned and asked in confusion: "The emperor is here, is this necessary?"

Ouyang Li shook his head and gave Jiang Daxiong his sword without explaining why.

"It's weird."

Jiang Daxiong muttered, picked up the weapon, turned and left.

Looking at Jiang Daxiong's leaving figure, Ouyang Li also shook his head. Maybe he was overthinking it. Just now when everyone was eating, there was a small group of people not far behind Li Xun, who kept looking at him. Although

They were far away and couldn't hear what they said, but Ouyang Li, who had been an assassin before, instinctively felt wary, but it was not easy to tell Li Xun about such unwarranted things.

Li Xun was riding on the horse and when he saw Jiang Daxiong holding a weapon in his hand, he couldn't help but wonder: "What are you doing with a weapon? You are not allowed to bring weapons into the banquet."

Jiang Daxiong said: "Ouyang Li gave it to me. I asked him what happened, but he didn't say anything."

Li Xun was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Then take it with you."

After that, Li Xun rode away, and Jiang Daxiong got on his horse and followed closely behind.

.............

"Brother Ge, Jiang Zhenggui led a dozen people, each holding a weapon, to go to the woods to block Li Xun."

A young man came in a hurry and said loudly.

Ge Qingyue laughed loudly: "This Jiang Zhenggui is still so impulsive, but it is just what I want."

Yang Fan on the side frowned and said: "The emperor is here. If things get serious, Jiang Zhenggui will probably end up very miserable."

Zhang Yuan sneered and said: "Whether Jiang Zhenggui is dead or alive, what does it matter to us? Whatever he does is his own responsibility. We don't have to worry about him."

Ge Qingyue ignored Zhang Yuan, looked at Yang Fan, and said quietly: "Brother Yang Fan, you have tried to dissuade me several times, but you don't seem to want me to take action against Li Xun. I remember that if it weren't for Li Xun, you wouldn't be bald in vain.

I have wasted several years and am now at this point."

Yang Fan was also upright: "The grudge between me and him is not like this."

Ge Qingyue nodded. Among this group of people, the one he valued most was Yang Fan. Firstly, because of his background, and secondly, Yang Fan was a very loyal and upright person. Ge Qingyue had been working hard to bring the two of them closer.

After pondering for a while, Ge Qingyue said: "In this way, we will watch from the sidelines. If Li Xun suffers too much, we will just stop it and will never give in."
