Chapter 264 Meeting in the Imperial Study Room

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

Li Chengping shook his head and dispelled the thoughts in his mind.

After all, this idea is simply too terrifying.

No matter what, he would not let this happen.

At this time, Li Chengru said: "I just said there is a possibility, not that it will really happen."

"It's always better to be careful."

Li Chengping smiled awkwardly and said, "I hope this is not possible."

"With you and my second brother here, how could it be my turn?"

"No, absolutely not."

The reason why Li Chengping was so nervous was entirely because of what his elder brother had said, that his father had chosen him to be the crown prince.

This is the most terrifying thing.

After all, their father, the emperor, never does things according to the routine.

You never know what someone will do next.

So, if that is really the case, then things will be troublesome.

By then, he would definitely not survive.

At this time, Li Chengru comforted her: "It's okay, I've already said it's just a possibility."

"If Father really wants to discuss this matter later, you should speak according to what we agreed upon before."

"That's right!" Li Chengping suddenly realized and said, "We will all agree with Second Brother and just stay out of it."

Li Chengru patted his shoulder and said, "Don't talk about it for now, let's go over and take a look."

"Okay, don't make Father wait anxiously."

After a while.

When Li Chengru and Li Chengping were about to arrive at the imperial study, several medical officers came towards them.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Great and the Third Prince."

When the medical officers passed by Li Chengru and Li Chengping, they immediately bowed and saluted before turning around and leaving.

However, when Li Chengping looked at the backs of the medical officers, he asked Li Chengru:
"Brother, it seems that these medical officers are heading to the harem."

"And you're so anxious, could something have happened?"

Li Chengru said: "The harem is not what we are concerned about, let's take care of the things at hand first."

"Okay, let's go quickly." Li Chengping turned around and continued walking forward.

Soon, Li Chengru and Li Chengping arrived at the door of the imperial study.

At the door of the imperial study, a middle-aged eunuch was already waiting.

The middle-aged eunuch greeted respectfully: "This servant greets His Majesty the First Prince and the Third Prince."

"His Majesty has issued an order. When the two princes arrive, they can immediately go to the imperial study."

Li Chengping looked around and asked, "Where's my second brother?"

"Has the second brother gone in?"

The middle-aged eunuch shook his head and said, "The Second Prince is still on his way and has not come yet."

"Your Highnesses, there is no need to wait. Just go in directly."

Li Chengru and Li Chengping looked at each other and nodded, "Okay, thank you for leading the way, eunuch."

at the same time.

In the imperial study, Emperor Qing sat in front of the desk, holding an arrow in his hand and sharpening it on a whetstone.

Soon, Li Chengru and Li Chengping arrived at the imperial study.

"My son has met my father."

The two men bowed and greeted Emperor Qing in front of them.

Emperor Qing did not look up, but continued to polish the arrow in his hand and said, "You are here."

"Find a seat and sit down first."

"Thank you, father." Li Chengru and Li Chengping sat down at the side.

At this time, Emperor Qing said again: "It's not a big deal that I called you here today, just to chat casually."

"Recently, I have been busy with official duties and national affairs, and have neglected to care for you." "To be honest, our family has not had a reunion dinner for several months."

Li Chengru said, "Father, it's three months and seventeen days."

"The last family dinner was in mid-May."

Emperor Qing put down the arrow in his hand and said with sudden enlightenment: "It's been so long."

"It seems that I can spare some free time these days to have a good meal with you guys."

At this time, after hearing Emperor Qing's words, Li Chengru and Li Chengping were not happy but felt panicked instead.

Because this is so abnormal.

After all, under normal circumstances, when would the emperor ever say such caring words?

A person who is often strict and either beats or scolds you.

Suddenly, they greet you with a smile and say words that show their concern for you.

No matter who this happens to, it feels scary.

Then, Emperor Qing said, "Actually, I asked you to come here because I have an important matter and I need your opinions."

"It has been several days since Cheng Qian passed away. It is time to decide on the appointment of a new crown prince."

"Tell me, both of you, who are you going to choose as the new crown prince?"

Here it comes, the point is coming!

Li Chengru and Li Chengping were instantly alerted after hearing Emperor Qing's words.

I knew that Emperor Qing wouldn't do this for no reason, so I let them come.

It really is this matter!
Li Chengru stood up quickly and said, "Father, I think that the appointment of a new crown prince is a major national event and must not be taken lightly."

“So, when it comes to personnel selection, it must be given top priority.”

Emperor Qing looked at Li Chengru in front of him and asked, "Do you have a candidate?"

Li Chengru said: "I think my second brother is a very suitable candidate."

"In terms of talent, my second brother is one of the best in the entire Qing Kingdom literary world, whether it's writing or ancient poetry."

"In terms of cultivation, my second brother is gentle and refined, and he cares about the people, and is deeply loved by the people."

"It's your turn, second brother..."

Before he could finish his words, Emperor Qing interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"stop!"

"You mean you want to choose the second oldest brother as the new crown prince?"

Li Chengru nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I meant."

Emperor Qing asked Li Chengping beside him, "Third Brother, what do you think?"

Li Chengping also stood up and said, "Father, I agree with my elder brother. We both think that it is best for my second brother to be the new crown prince."

"Because no one is more suitable than him."

"Ha!" Emperor Qing laughed, looked at the two of them, and said, "It seems that you have discussed this beforehand?"

……

the other side.

Li Chengze sat in the carriage and had already entered the palace.

After entering the palace, he followed Eunuch Chen and walked towards the imperial study.

Just as Li Chengze arrived at the door of the imperial study, Eunuch Chen said to him:
"Second Prince, I will not see you off."

Li Chengze waved his hand and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Chen."

Eunuch Chen bowed to Li Chengze again before turning around and leaving.

Li Chengze did not stay any longer and went straight into the imperial study.

When he came in, he saw Li Chengru and Li Chengping standing aside with their heads down, their faces turning somewhat ugly.

"My son has met my father."

Li Chengze bowed to Emperor Qing.

At this time, Emperor Qing looked at Li Chengze in front of him and laughed:
"Second brother, you are here!"
