Chapter 467: Abandoned woman from the cold kiln conquers Prince Zhengtai 25

His Fifth Highness almost died on the mountain, but in the end it was a group of insignificant bandits who took the blame. How could he be calm?

"Auntie, the royal father promised me to find out the real murderer, so why did he forcefully close the case?"

His Highness the Fifth was furious, his mouth was open, and when he opened his mouth, he said that the Holy One was not coming.

Shu Ange was startled by him, and hurriedly ordered: "You all go down first, I will take care of your Highness."

The entourages left in a hurry, as if they had been ordered to do so. The Fifth Highness could speak falsely to the saint, and it would be a crime of disrespect to spread it out. If they dared to listen, it would be a crime of deceiving the king.

After all the servants went down, His Royal Highness pulled out his sword, looked at the flowers and plants, and said indignantly, "Why, why did you do this to me, even the queen told me not to pursue it."

The cold light flickered, the flowers that were cut off by Qi fell all over the ground, the branches and leaves withered, the Fifth Highness's sword eyebrows were raised, and there was a fierce fire in his eyes.

Shu Ange grabbed the sword from His Highness Fifth's hand and threw it on the ground, serious: "Your Highness, you are no longer a child, is it useful to lose your temper like this?"

The Fifth Highness had his sword taken away, and his feverish mind calmed down a bit. He closed his eyes and clenched his fists before opening his eyes after a while.

"Auntie, why is this happening?"

"The Tang Dynasty is the country of the common people, not the country of His Majesty. People have five departures and no return, eight sufferings but no happiness, nine ruins but no success in the state, and officials corrupt and bend the law. Wars are raging. , the people were displaced and fled between mountains and lakes. With such a big Tang Dynasty, how long can the royal family be stable?"

The Fifth Highness was speechless by Shu Ange's words, his face was like dust: "However, the father emperor is the master of the Tang Dynasty. If he intends to investigate the case, how many people can escape the legal net."

Shu Ange never expected that His Highness Fifth would be so naive. The national fortune of the Tang Dynasty was on the decline, and it was already at the moment of life and death, and he was still indulging in the illusion of the emperor's omnipotence.

No wonder that after the Fifth Highness ascended the throne in the future, he was obsessed with amusement and was completely unaware of the suffering of the people.

"His Royal Highness, land acquisitions are becoming more and more serious these days. The rich have land in the fields, and the poor have no place to stand. Excessive taxes are heavy, natural disasters are frequent, husbands and wives do not live together, and fathers and sons do not save each other. People have nowhere to sue for grievances, and nowhere to appeal when they suffer. In such a great Tang Dynasty, what if your Majesty is the lord of the Tang Dynasty?"

The Fifth Highness is fun. Everywhere he goes, there are beautiful flowers, and the people he sees are rich and precious, and the commoners live and work in peace and contentment.

In the past, the aunt had also mentioned the sufferings of the people, but the Fifth Highness usually put his left ear in and out of the right ear, and seldom took it to heart.

"If that's the case, why didn't the emperor order to reduce taxes, reclaim wasteland, and let the people recuperate?"

His Fifth Highness is talented and intelligent. Although he is not interested in government affairs, he has also read some policy theories and historical books, and immediately raised questions.

Shu Ange glanced at him with a hint of anger: "Your Highness, do you really think that in today's world, can Your Majesty really control this?"

This sentence is heartbreaking. Everyone knows that His Majesty is almost in an empty position today, and the government is controlled by several forces, but there are a few people who dare to speak out.

His Royal Highness froze in place, slumped his fists, and said bitterly: "You are right, the father and mother do not pursue this matter, they have their own reasons. But this king is not reconciled, those people, It shouldn't be damned silent. Wutong was still saying that there was news from my hometown, maybe I can find my brother and sister-in-law."

He didn't go on, but Shu Ange could fully understand what he meant. She took the initiative to hold the Fifth Highness's hand, raised his hand, and her eyes were extraordinarily determined.

"Your Highness, are you going to endure it and beware of assassinations and assassinations again and again, or are you going to fight back?"

Shu Ange didn't wait for His Highness to reply, and continued: "Your Majesty has not yet established a Crown Prince, and the Fifth His Highness is very loud in the court. Do you know why the First Prince, who has grown up, is not as good as your supporters."

His Royal Highness looked at Shu Ange, and returned slowly: "Because the Queen Mother is the Empress of the Palace, so the ministers support me?"

Shu Ange let go of His Highness Fifth's arm and sighed, "The next words from Siniang may be disrespectful to His Majesty. I wonder if Fifth Highness would like to hear what Siniang has to say."

In terms of courage, I am afraid that few people are bigger than Shu Ange. She told the Fifth Highness directly and clearly that her next words would be disrespectful to His Majesty.

His Highness the fifth hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Auntie, you can say anything in front of me, but don't let the slightest bit of wind be heard in front of everyone."

Shu Ange was amused, but in the eyes of the Fifth Highness, she was such a reckless person.

"After the first emperor's tomb collapsed, the sage was welcomed by eunuchs as the emperor. During his reign, His Majesty favored eunuchs and worshipped the bones of the Buddha, but at the moment of internal and external troubles, he blindly avoided it, and made peace again and again in the face of the forces of the vassal towns. The sage was in the palace, every time There is a small banquet every day, and a big banquet every three days, and I also like to watch the performances of musicians and actors, and recruit opera troupes from all over the world to perform in the palace.”

The Fifth Prince's face was red when he heard it. If there is a father, there must be a son. The emperor likes to feast and have fun. He is not much better at ordinary times.

"Father, father, he may have been unhappy in the court, so he put his love and fun on it."

The Fifth Highness felt ashamed when she said these words, and even more so when Shu Ange listened, so she did not answer, but silently stared at the Fifth Highness.

His Royal Highness was embarrassed by Shu Ange, lowered his head and said, "The son does not tell his father's fault, auntie, the father and the emperor are in the midst of government affairs.

In the Baizhen Garden, all the servants had dispersed, and Shu Ange had no scruples when he asked: "Then, Fifth Highness, what do you think of the crown prince's position and the dragon chair? Do you have any intentions to fight?"

Her eyes were locked on the Fifth Highness, and she did not give him a chance to dodge and evade.

After being stunned, His Highness the fifth looked ashamed: "This king has little knowledge, and it is difficult to be a big responsibility. I just want to be a leisure king."

When he first went through the assassination case, His Royal Highness was also very emotional, wanting to fight for that position, to seek justice for the innocent people around him who sacrificed, and at the same time to make those people's calculations fail.

But during the recovery period, the blood of the Fifth Highness gradually cooled down.

He is not suitable for that position. After so many years, he is a wealthy and idle person, proficient in all things food, drink and entertainment, and knows nothing about government affairs and state affairs.

Even if he took the position by virtue of his will, it would be difficult for him to become a virtuous monarch, not even as good as the current sage - his father.

There was a ray of pity in Shu Ange's eyes, and he sighed: "Your Highness, this is why they do everything possible to push you to the top - what they want is a puppet at the mercy of others."
