Chapter 1065 Chu Ning’s embarrassing situation!
above the hall.
King Anding's words shocked everyone.
No one expected that Prince Anding would stand up and oppose the prince's suggestion on the first day of meeting him.
Even Chu Ning was a little surprised. He couldn't help but turn around and look at King Anding and asked, "What does King Anding think?"
Chu Jing said with a righteous look on his face: "Your Highness, those people are descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty after all. If you take them in, you will be nurturing a tiger to cause trouble!"
"If we give them good farmland and a place to live, they will lie dormant and when the time is right, they will definitely pose a threat to our dynasty."
Although he didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was very clear. He didn't want the State of Chu to take in these people.
The ministers were immediately shocked when they heard this.
Although I know that if King Anding stands up, he will definitely oppose it.
But they didn't expect that King Anding would oppose it with such harsh words!
This is going against the prince!
For a moment, the officials looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
In the State of Chu today, who doesn't know how powerful the Crown Prince is? If you dare to go against the Crown Prince at this time, what's the difference between that and seeking your own death?
Sure enough, Chu Ning's face darkened when he heard this, and he looked at Chu Jing with a somewhat unfriendly look.
"According to Prince Anding, anyone from the royal family of the previous dynasty will definitely raise a tiger to cause trouble?"
"Then my Crown Princess is also from the royal family of the previous dynasty. Do you also think she will endanger our dynasty?"
The two of them were at loggerheads, neither giving in!
The two people looked at each other, each with their own persistence in their eyes.
Facing Chu Ning's gaze, Prince Anding sneered: "Your Highness, please don't confuse the public!"
"The Crown Princess is just a woman with a gentle personality. She can't possibly be a danger to our dynasty!"
"But the situation is different for other members of the royal family of the previous dynasty. Among these people, there may be some who want to restore the country!"
"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to keep these people in Chu, I will be the first one to disagree!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dingjun Hou Chu Zan took the initiative to step forward and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, although you are the crown prince, you cannot act on your own!"
Immediately afterwards, Yong'an Marquis Chu Xiao also came out to speak for his father, the king: "This matter is of great importance. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to take in someone from the former royal family, he must consider it carefully and not lose the big picture for the small."
As these three people stood up, the eyes of Emperor Chu on the dragon throne lit up.
Over the past year, he has been suppressed by Chu Ning and has almost no say in anything.
Now that King Anding and others have arrived, he has the opportunity to have the final say!
Thinking of this, he did not wait for Chu Ning to open his mouth to refute and said in a deep voice: "What the three of you said makes sense. If our dynasty takes in people from the royal family of the previous dynasty, there will definitely be a lot of trouble."
"Instead of raising tigers to cause trouble, it is better to drive them out!"
The ministers' faces changed slightly when they heard this.
At this moment, they knew that the emperor had changed.
No longer just listen to the prince!
In the past, the troops in Kyoto City were controlled by the prince, and the emperor had no reliable people around him. Even the prime minister, the tutor, and the old King of Qin supported the prince.
It’s difficult for the emperor to have a say!
But now it’s different. The Prime Minister has gone to Yan, the old King of Qin is not attending the court, and the Grand Tutor does not want to offend the Emperor so he does not speak.
As for the officials under Chu Ning, Jia Yu and Liu Shouren are no longer there, and the remaining Deng Hongwen and others can hardly compete with King Anding!
More importantly, Chu Ning’s troops are no longer in Kyoto City!
This is why the emperor changed his mind!
The ministers, realizing that the situation was not right, immediately kept silent and dared not speak.
When Chu Ning saw that the emperor actually followed the wishes of Prince Anding and others, his face suddenly turned ugly.
"Father, if we have the people of the previous royal family in our hands, we can monitor their movements at any time!"
Chu Ning said in a deep voice: "If they are in accordance with King Anding's intention, how can they escape our eyes and ears if they have second thoughts?"
"But if we drive them out and let them escape from our sight, we won't know what they will do, which will make them even more unscrupulous."
He promised Shen Wanying that he would give these people a chance to live.
Moreover, if these royal family members of the previous dynasty could be used by the Qin State to incite Han Xing to rebel, there is no guarantee that they would not be used by other dynasties to incite other people to rebel.
After all, Di Wenyao and others under him were also former ministers of the previous dynasty!
Once the royal family of the previous dynasty was driven out of Chu and controlled by other dynasties, Di Wenyao and others would definitely be cautious.
Moreover, if he can't even handle this matter, how can Di Wenyao and others follow him wholeheartedly in the future?
Di Wenyao and others have been operating in Bingzhou for three years, and it has become his base camp. He will never allow any chaos to occur in Bingzhou.
Therefore, these people must be in the State of Chu and must be under his surveillance and control!
There is no room for discussion on this matter!
Sitting on the dragon throne, the emperor raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
He had already expressed his thoughts, but he didn't expect Chu Ning to object.
This clearly shows that they don't take him seriously!
Thinking of Chu Ning's disobedience to the emperor's order in public yesterday, the emperor's face suddenly turned gloomy.
"Prince!"
The emperor suddenly raised his voice, stared at Chu Ning with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I said, drive them out!"
Chu Ning's face looked a little ugly. Just as he was about to refute, King Anding suddenly said:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so insistent, it must be because of the Crown Princess. How about this, ask the opinions of the adults present here."
After saying this, without waiting for Chu Ning to object, he turned around and walked to the Grand Tutor, smiling and asked:
"Taifu, the Prime Minister is not in Kyoto now. You are in a high position and have great power. What do you think about this matter?"
"This……"
The Grand Tutor glanced at the Emperor on the Dragon Throne, then looked at Chu Ning in front of him, frowned and said:
"This matter is of great importance and requires long-term consideration."
After all, he didn't dare to support Chu Ning in public.
If it were in the past, he would definitely support Chu Ning unconditionally, but now Chu Ning has no troops here, and the area around Kyoto City is full of King Anding's troops. He does not want to offend King Anding at this moment.
What's more, His Majesty has already expressed his opinion. As His Majesty's teacher, he naturally cannot take the lead in opposing His Majesty's opinion!
Prince Anding did not seem surprised by this. He nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Taifu is very cautious in doing things. We really can't jump to conclusions on this matter!"
After he finished speaking, he ignored Chu Ning's gloomy expression, turned to look at the fifteenth prince, and asked:
"Your Highness the Fifteenth, what do you think?"
The fifteenth prince shrank his neck and said quickly: "This is the advice of the crown prince, but the final result still needs to be decided by the emperor."
Prince Anding laughed: "No wonder His Majesty said that His Majesty the Fifteenth Prince is filial!"
As he spoke, he came to the Sixteenth Prince and asked, "Then, Sixteenth Prince, what do you think?"
The sixteenth prince laughed awkwardly and said, "The people of the previous dynasty have nothing to do with me. I have no objection to how you deal with them."
Both are not guilty.
Prince Anding smiled even more, and was too lazy to ask any more questions. He stood up and walked to the last prince, the seventeenth prince, and asked:
"Your Highness the Seventeenth, you are the only prince present who has not expressed his opinion yet."
The seventeenth prince said quickly: "For such an important matter, it is naturally up to our father to make the final decision!"
"Hahahaha!"
King Anding laughed and turned to look at Chu Ning; "Your Highness, you have heard it too. The Grand Tutor and the other princes all think that what Your Majesty said makes sense."
"As the crown prince, you won't act on your own, right?"
