34. Dark tide

"Hasn't Chen Jun come back yet?" Su Zhuoju frowned and brushed his sleeves up, "That's it, don't wait, when he comes, you let him go back to the capital to find me." ”

Tan Wu Gongsheng should be.

"Lord, what is the will?"

"I will never follow in the footsteps of the King." Su Zhuoju stood with his hands in his hands, "Pass the order, after I leave to return to Beijing, the army in the domain will not move first, as for the 10,000 Qinwang troops and horses that were originally stationed outside the capital...... Su Zhuoju pondered for a while and asked: "What is the situation of the rest of the feudal kings?" ”

"They are still staying in the capital, and the army has not moved."

Su Zhuoju slowly exhaled a breath: "Because of the matter of the king, it is not strange that the director is disheartened by the royal family, but now they are staying alive and dead, heh." ”

Tan Si walked into the tent from the outside, and presented a letter with both hands.

"Your Highness, it is the letter of King Yu."

Su Zhuoju opened it and looked at it for a long time before raising his head and saying: "When you return to Beijing, by the way, bring Wang Cunbing with you, and as for those Liwang troops who have surrendered, you will personally escort them to the capital." ”

"What does Your Highness mean?"

"The current situation is no longer something that anyone can control, the support of troops in the domain has always been feared by the monarchs of previous dynasties, King Li has just died, the emperor, my other vassal kings and ministers in the court, can barely maintain a balance, but now it is different."

"Huh?"

"The emperor can't tolerate me, he would even rather cooperate with King Yu to get rid of me."

Tan Si couldn't help frowning: "In this case, the prince should have made a plan early, or we won't go to the capital, and directly take these troops to resist together with the men and horses in the domain." ”

Su Zhuoju shook his head: "I think King Yu must wish I did this, so as to give him an excuse for a direct crusade, now the emperor is just removed from the position of leading the troops, and I am summoned back to Beijing to assist in the investigation of the matter of the king, how can this king give him the opportunity to implement the charges!" ”

"That ......"

"Needless to say, you guys go down, I have my own arrangements."

When the tent was empty, Su Zhuoju reached out and picked up a letter, his eyes lit up with the candle, he put the paper on the candle, lit a corner of it, and the orange fire reflected the name on the inscription, Nanmu Qi.

"Hopefully it doesn't really come to this."

The voice was light and cold, and he couldn't hear too many ups and downs, Su Zhuoju's eyes suddenly fell on the silver spear placed next to the armor, he remembered the way Chen Jun held it, and thought of the knife he had crushed that day.

"On the day of reunion, I'll give you another hand."

When Chen Jun rushed back, it was already three days later, and Su Zhuoju and the others had also been gone for three days, and after learning the news of that day, he did not hesitate to ask for horses and dry food, and went straight to the capital.

Su Zhuoju hurried all the way, first went back to the palace to freshen up, and then was summoned by the emperor, he changed into formal clothes and went all the way, but the place where he met was in the imperial garden.

Su Jin sat on the stone pier, and when he saw him coming, he just glanced at him lightly and shouted, "Uncle Huang." ”

"The ...... of the King's Thing"

Before he finished speaking, Su Jin interrupted directly: "Uncle Huang doesn't have to worry, my holy decree is just a disguise, and it is just for King Yu to see." ”

"Oh?"

Su Jin sighed deeply: "After the imperial uncle left, the people of King Yu and King Qi immediately bribed the ministers in the court, formed a faction, and did not take me as the emperor in their eyes at all. ”

"And in order not to make King Yu suspicious, I will be so harsh, and I hope that Uncle Huang will not mind, the removal of military power and position is only temporary, Uncle Huang, you are still the regent who assists the government."

Su Zhuoju looked at Su Jin's eyes, his eyes were sincere and bright, and he didn't look like he was faking at all.

He thought for a moment and asked, "Does Your Majesty's bones still hurt?" ”

Su Jin's face changed immediately.

Then he reluctantly smiled and said, "Uncle Huang......"

"You don't have to make so many excuses, you don't need to pretend to be anything, I know you must hate me very much, and you want me to die, so why are you so tired?"

"Uncle Huang, I ...... I didn't. ”

Su Zhuoju glanced at him and said, "I won't blame you if you say it." ”

“…… Jin'er really needs Uncle Huang's help! Su Jin reached out to grab Su Zhuoju's wrist, and after being avoided by him without a trace, he had to pull his sleeves, and said helplessly: "The current country is really too chaotic, even if Jin'er is the emperor, but many things have to be avoided, those imperial uncles are busy sending beauties to Jin'er all day long, I wish Jin'er would be greedy for beauty and ignore politics from now on!" ”

"Uncle Huang, you promised your father that the emperor would help Jin'er! Jin'er needs an imperial uncle! ”

Su Zhuoju's eyes looked at him, vaguely similar to Su Zhuoye, but he never felt that he owed the father and son, and the only thing he could do was ......

"...... this?"

"The Emperor once gave me this token, and now it's time to return it to His Majesty." Su Zhuoju didn't mean to be nostalgic at all, this thing was not his, but he felt relaxed when he handed it over.

"The 30,000 forbidden troops in the capital are still under the command of His Majesty himself!"

Su Jin looked at the token in his hand, then at Su Zhuoju, and tears suddenly appeared in his eyes: "In the past, Jin'er was not good, and he repeatedly collided with Uncle Huang." ”

"But from now on, Jin'er must believe in Uncle Huang!"

He said it very heartily, but Su Zhuoju didn't catch a cold very much, and after this matter was over, he had the intention of retiring, even if Su Jin stayed for a long time, he didn't want to stay for a long time.

After he left, Manager Sun stepped forward, looked at the token that Su Jin put in his hand to play, and couldn't help but congratulate: "Your Majesty is really scheming, and you will get the token back." ”

"Hmph, where is my tongue, it's just that he doesn't want this thing, Su Zhuoju really can't wait to draw a line with his father and me!" Su Jin squinted his eyes and laughed, "But the more he is like this, the more interested I am in him, if it is smooth this time, or in a few days, he will be mine." ”

Manager Sun frowned: "Your Majesty, it's better not to raise a tiger for the sake of trouble, people like Yao Wang can only be directly executed, which is the safest." ”

"Wouldn't that be a waste of his face?" Su Jin waved his hand, "Okay, you don't have to say more, I've made up my mind." ”

Although Su Zhuoju didn't know the conversation between Su Jin and Manager Sun after he left, he knew very well that Su Jin could never be trusted, although this person was not very old, he knew very well what kind of character he had in his bones.

Emperor, King Yu, King Qi, these are all his enemies, it can be said that this time when he comes back, the bloody storm he will face is far better than the last time Su Zhuoye died.

King Yu, King Qi is nothing more than for that position, and Su Jin not only wants to keep the throne, but also wants to control and even destroy them, the vassal kings, only in this way will his throne sit firmly and smoothly.

Since this is the case, Su Zhuoju naturally does not have any thoughts of mercy on his subordinates, and he has no good impression of the entire royal family and even everyone above the court.

Su Zhuoju generally does not take the initiative to find trouble with others, but when there is trouble, he will solve it very easily, not taking the initiative, not doing much, but he does not connive or evade.

He has developed his own strategy for facing the world, and he will definitely abide by it, and will never give up unless it proves unfeasible.

Chen Jun is still in a hurry, he is alone after all, and he also needs to rest on the road, if he is not as fast as Su Zhuoju and them, he is already three days away by car, this trip down, Chen Jun estimated that in the end, he will be half a month later than Su Zhuoju.

However, he was not very worried, he believed in Su Zhuoju's ability, as long as he didn't think about it himself, it would not be difficult for him to be fine.

After walking for most of the day, Chen Jun was by a stream, picked up the water and washed his face, now the weather has turned hot, and it is not as refreshing as early spring.

Chen Jun nibbled on dry food and drank water, and opened the panel to take a look.

The attribute value skill is still the same, and it hasn't changed, but the plot process has jumped a little fast, and it has actually reached thirty-seven percent.

And the back is still flashing, Chen Jun has also figured out a little rule, and the fact that he has been moving shows that the plot will change a lot in the past two days.

He couldn't settle down suddenly, Su Zhuoju must be one of the protagonists of this world, this change must be related to him, plus the news he heard when he came over, the emperor made a decree to temporarily remove him from the position of leading troops, which is obviously not good.

Chen Jun turned over and got on his horse, raised his horsewhip, and headed north.

Su Zhuoju sat on the high seat, Tan Si and Tan Wu stood on the ground, and said in unison: "Lord Wang, it has been arranged." ”

"Yes." Su Zhuoju looked at the several secret letters in his hand over and over for a long time, and then said, "You guys go down!" ”

Tan Si suddenly said: "Lord Wang, do you just want to catch all those vassal kings this time?" ”

Su Zhuoju raised his eyes: "What do you want to say?" ”

"The prince's talent and strategy, no one in the government and the opposition is incomparable, although you are the regent now, but the relationship with His Majesty is not good, wait for a long time, I'm afraid it will ......"

"Do you want me to kill Su Jin and take the opportunity to become emperor?" Su Zhuoju said directly without blinking.

Tan Si instantly softened his knees and knelt down heavily.

"Lord Wang, subordinates...... There is indeed this intention, this time the two vassal kings of King Yu and King Qi rebelled, and His Royal Highness could have dealt with the little emperor with their strength first, and then dealt with them in the name of counterinsurgency. ”

"King Yu and King Qi are not fools, how can they listen to me, in the current situation, whoever strikes first will be the target of everyone."

Tan Wu also knelt down and continued: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is still good to you, if you have the heart to help him deal with the two kings, he will definitely be willing to believe you." ”

Su Zhuoju frowned: "Compared to the emperor, I think they are more credible." ”

He paused, and suddenly said, "Actually, it's not difficult to want them to fight, if I ......"

After listening to Su Zhuoju's words, Tan Si and Tan Wu clenched their fists at the same time and said eagerly; "The prince can't take risks himself!"

Su Zhuoju stood up, waved his long sleeves, and said coldly: "I have made up my mind, there is no need to say it again."

King Yu's father was originally a vassal king, so he only inherited his father's position, not the current emperor's uncle like Su Zhuoju.

Su Zhuoju has never had much intersection with them, but in the face of King Yu's invitation, he did not refuse, the day before yesterday just made a reply to King Li's matter, this matter has nothing to do with him, the culprit is still the emperor, naturally no one will deliberately hold on to it.

King Yu wore a dark purple dress, his age was not young, his sideburns were slightly white, but his spirit was very good, with a smile on his face, and his face was peaceful, compared to the gloomy and mean King Qi, he looked much better.

Su Zhuoju picked up the wine on the table and drank it all.

"King Yao really has a good amount of alcohol!" King Yu smiled and filled him with another glass.

Su Zhuoju looked at the clear wine in the wine glass, and said lightly: "If King Yu has something to say, let's just say it!" ”

"This ...... It's okay, King Yao took King Li's rebels to Beijing this time, which can be described as a great achievement, but His Majesty didn't even mention it, and even removed you from your position, which is a bit unkind! ”

"The monarch is the minister, and the order of His Majesty is not a minister, how can he make a mistake for the minister."

King Yu pouted: "This is a bit pedantic, as far as this king knows, King Yao is not such a person!" ”

Su Zhuoju glanced at him: "Then what kind of person do you think I am?" ”

"King Yao is both talented and beautiful, rare in martial arts, outstanding in military achievements, and deeply won the hearts of the people." King Yu raised his glass and said, "If this king wants this world, you will be my worst enemy." ”

Su Zhuoju chuckled lightly and raised his glass to drink again.

"You've seen Wang Cunbing!"

"Huh?"

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have so much confidence to come to me, King Li's 10,000 rebels, plus your own 20,000 troops, can already be equal to the guards of the capital."

King Yu paused for a moment before saying: "King Yao is really a refreshing person, since this is the case, this king will also say it directly!" ”

Su Zhuoju looked at the flash of light in his eyes, and only sneered in his heart.

"King Qi has formed an alliance with this king, if you can get the promise of His Royal Highness King Yao again, then this matter will be foolproof, and when the big thing is done, this king is willing to give you twice as much domain as now, how about it?"

Su Zhuoju put down the cup unhurriedly.

"Which rebels have you supported, no wonder King Yu has so much confidence, and you dare to tell this matter directly, it is indeed a lot of sincerity, I'm just curious, there are not many military horses in this king's hands, why do you have to win over this king?"

When King Yu heard this, he couldn't help but smile.

"Because, there is one thing, this king hopes that King Yao can help me, if this matter is done, then even thousands of troops and horses can't compare!"

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"The emperor has always had a deep affection for you, if King Yao is willing to be a hostage, he will definitely be able to let him cast a rat trap, and when he sends someone to save you, the king's people will turn a blind eye, and when the time comes, there will be King Yao over there to do internal response, and it will be easier for us to succeed."

"King Yu thinks too much! Su Jin, it's too late for him to hate me, and if he knows that I fell into your hands, it's too late for him to be happy. ”

"Eh, King Yao looks down on himself too much, no one will know better than this king about your weight in Su Jin, come here, present it!"

Su Zhuoju looked at those dense scrolls, and his face was not good-looking.

"Lian Ying is the person sent by this king, what he heard between the bed, I don't think there will be anything wrong, Su Jin ...... you"

Su Zhuoju was silent for a while, and said slowly: "There is no need to say any more. ”

King Yu's face remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of cold light: "Isn't King Yao agreeing?" ”

"It's impossible."

"Since that's the case, it's no wonder that this king is coming!"

Su Zhuoju raised his eyebrows, and the frost in his eyes was like snow and ice.

He drew the soft sword at his waist, and was about to make a move, when he suddenly felt dizzy.

"Your Wine ......"

"A little colorless and tasteless incense, King Yao, you don't have to worry, this king won't kill you, you still have a lot of use for this king!"

Su Zhuoju lowered his head and wiped away the darkness in his eyes.
