"And Prime Minister Shang, that old fox, is like a wallflower. He doesn't dare to fart. Fortunately, I spoke for her before. I believe she won't betray me. I think she has secretly taken refuge in Imperial Uncle."
Hearing this, Li Sang opened her mouth, wanting to remind her that Shang Shuheng had become very close to Prince Rui recently.
But thinking about the situation in the court now, telling her, I'm afraid it will cause more trouble and cause unnecessary trouble.
"Ying'er, calm down."
"Your Imperial Uncle... father will invite her into the palace to test her a little more."
Huang Ying is not going to endure this anymore.
"Father, just ask her directly what she means. If she wants the throne, I will give it to her."
Li Sang frowned, with a serious look on his face. "Ying'er, how can you say such a thing? Don't act out of emotion, you know?"
How much effort did he put into getting her the throne?
How can you give up just by saying you give up?
"Am I still like an emperor now? What's the difference between me and a puppet?"
Huang Ying is full of depression.
"Okay, you go back and calm down first, and leave the other matters to father. Father will definitely give you a satisfactory answer, okay?"
In fact, even Li Sang didn't expect things to develop to this point.
He thought that everything was under his control.
Unexpectedly, almost overnight, all this changed.
When he thought that the source of all these changes was his good niece Li Ruo, Li Sang was so angry that his teeth itched.
Thinking that she was about to get married to her son, he even wanted to kill her.

On the other side, Prime Minister Shang also looked worried and solemn after returning home.
Shang Shuheng just came back from outside and saw that she looked wrong. He stepped forward and asked softly, "Mom, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Prime Minister Shang sighed and briefly recounted what happened in the court recently.
Shang Shuheng was stunned.
"Your Majesty are you doubting you?"
"Not entirely."
"When it comes to suspicion, she should be suspicious of Prince Rui. It's just that she has no evidence and can't do anything to her."
Hearing this, Shang Shuheng was not worried, but instead raised the corners of his mouth with a smile.
"Mother, do you think that the roster you lost was stolen by someone sent by Prince Rui?"
The officials on that list were all the people Your Majesty asked his mother to place.
Today, these people are being eliminated one after another.
It is hard not to doubt that the roster is in the hands of Prince Rui.
"It's not a guess, it's a certainty."
"And it's not just me, all the officials in the court should have something in Prince Rui's hands. Now the entire court has become her bag."
In fact, even Prime Minister Shang didn't expect that things would turn around so quickly.
Just a few days ago, she had secretly laughed at Prince Rui for being stupid.
Unexpectedly, they are not stupid at all, but they are the self-righteous people who are stupid.
"That's right. How could someone like Prince Rui really give up the power they had because of a relationship they had when they were young?"
Prime Minister Shang sighed, regretting that he had underestimated her before.
"By the way, didn't you invite her to the poetry gathering last time? What do you think of her?"
Shang Shuheng A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He and the prince not only got along at that poetry meeting, but also got along several times later.
And we had a great time talking.
"Being both civil and military, wise and wise."
"My lord, she is not some rude martial artist. Not only is she well-spoken, but she is also good at calligraphy and painting. She has a broad mind and a long-term vision."
Shang Shuheng's eyes glowed with admiration, and he looked excited when he mentioned the prince.
