Sure enough, as Liu Tong said, King Rui did not retreat, but took advantage of this time to train hard and prepare for a big battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The crown prince was imprisoned, the power of King Qi and King Li could not be restored to the same state for the time being, Emperor Yuanwu was often sick, and now the heaviest speaker in the court has become Liu Tong, the son of the Nine Emperors, who has had "grievances".

Even King Cen, who was crowned the king, was also looking forward to Liu Tong.

Because of the royal scandal that broke out at the concubine's birthday banquet, King Cen was also annoyed by Emperor Yuanwu, but he couldn't find a name to punish him, so he could only stop his life, be grounded, and scold from time to time to express his dissatisfaction.

As for King Cen, he doesn't care about this, as long as he can appear in the court, once he speaks, he will be towards Liu Tong, making it clear that he is Liu Tong's person.

The other courtiers were still watching, but the prince's diner staff couldn't sit still.

Seeing that the Nine Emperor Princes are sitting big, when King Rui really wins a big battle, then their power will definitely be amazing.

When the time comes, how should he, the imprisoned prince, deal with himself?

Although the prince is imprisoned, he is not powerless.

He secretly contacted someone, planning to write for the last time, and he had to get King Rui back.

The prince is gambling, if his father makes an order according to his wishes, it means that his father is not willing to watch King Rui sit big, and he still has some hope for him, the prince, then he still has a chance.

But if the father doesn't make an order, the prince will die. Because he knew that if this was the case, his father must have already made a plan, and he was waiting to see if King Rui could make another contribution...... When King Rui returns to Beijing, he, the crown prince, may not have a day to turn over.

After sitting on the crown prince for all these years, how could he be willing to give up the seat that he was only half a step away from?

If you can't sit in that seat, you won't let him go if you want to sit in that place in the future.

Give it a go, and there is still hope for him.

The crown prince sat on the high seat, his eyes slightly closed.

I only hope for my father...... Don't let him take that last, riskiest step.

This is the prince's big counterattack, early on the top, the prince's faction spread out all the hidden worries and said, no longer cover up.

"Your Majesty! If King Rui is allowed to expand his power in the land of Yanbei, and the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, I am afraid that the land of Yanbei will no longer be restricted. My Great Wei has been stable for a hundred years, and I beg Your Majesty not to let such worries sit big! ”

"Your Majesty! The crown prince is the eldest son raised by His Majesty under his knees and raised for more than 30 years, even if he is obsessed with his mind and makes some mistakes, His Majesty must not ignore the prince! ”

"Your Majesty! Although His Majesty did not make a clear decree when the imperial court withdrew from the army, King Kerui must have known that His Majesty did not want to raise troops. But even so, King Rui still insisted on going his own way, still using troops against Xianbei, wasting the treasury, expanding his power for himself, and threatening the crown prince...... The minister implored His Majesty to order King Rui to withdraw his troops and return to Beijing! ”

"The minister implores Your Majesty to order King Rui to withdraw his troops and return to Beijing!!"

"The minister implores Your Majesty to order King Rui to withdraw his troops and return to Beijing as a teacher!!"

The voice in the main hall became more and more high-pitched, and Emperor Yuanwu sat upright, falling into silence.

A question that had to be considered was very realistically placed in front of Emperor Yuanwu.

Is it the crown prince or the king of Rui?

One is his sister-in-law who has been carefully cultivated and has high hopes; One is the son who has never paid much attention, but has grown into a threat to the existence of the prince......

Although he knew in his heart that the crown prince's ability was mediocre, it was appropriate to be a lord of success, but it would be difficult to make further meritorious achievements, and King Rui had great ambitions and helped the world, if he could succeed to the throne, Great Wei might have another prosperous scene......

But in the palm of the hand, there is always a preference.

Emperor Yuanwu was reluctant to abolish the crown prince, and he was reluctant to abolish the capable virtuous king......

He had to think about how good it would be if King Rui didn't have a different heart, then he could assist the king wholeheartedly after the crown prince ascended the throne, and the scene of the prosperous era of the Great Wei Dynasty would not appear.

This thought lasted all his life, and Emperor Yuanwu's thoughts were like crazy.

Yes, he hasn't given up on the crown prince yet, and he can still stabilize the court.

While Emperor Yuan Wu was thinking at high speed, Liu Tong did not make any moves.

The prince's counterattack was within Liu Tong's expectations, and he was actually waiting, waiting for Emperor Yuanwu's decision.

Just as the crown prince wanted to know Emperor Yuanwu's choice, Liu Tong was also waiting to see if Emperor Yuanwu had given up on the prince.

If Emperor Yuanwu did not agree with the opinions of the prince's faction, then Liu Tong could rest assured. Because this shows that Emperor Yuanwu acquiesced in King Rui's behavior of cultivating power and establishing meritorious deeds.

Liu Tong clenched his fists slightly.

Emperor Yuanwu on the throne suddenly got up, and his voice was not loud but could not be refuted: "Spread the decree to Yanbei, order King Rui to retreat and defend Yanbei Pass, if Xianbei fights, he will meet the enemy, and if Xianbei does not fight, he will strengthen the fortifications and attack with defense." ”

There was silence in the hall, and the prince's faction reacted first: "Your Majesty! The return of the king of Narui to Beijing ......"

"Let's talk about it."

Emperor Yuanwu dropped two words, glanced at Liu Tong, and walked away. The temple people hurriedly shouted in a long tone and retreated, and left after Emperor Yuanwu.

The people in the main hall shouted "Congratulations to Your Majesty", and when they couldn't see the figure of Emperor Yuanwu, they immediately exploded.

Liu Tong silently let go of his hand, and the fourteenth prince hurriedly came up and asked, "Ninth brother, what does my father mean by this?" ”

Although it was to let King Rui withdraw from the army, he did not let King Rui return to Beijing according to what the people of the prince's faction said, but discussed again.

On the surface, it seems that the demands of both sides have been adjusted, so that each side has taken a step back.

But really?

Liu Tong frowned.

Emperor Yuanwu's move can be regarded as "dragging".

Do you want to ...... Drag and wait for people to forget the prince's mistakes and drag them until the prince is ordered to lift the captivity?

After all, no matter whether King Rui stays in Yanbei or returns to Beijing, King Rui, a free body, is better than the imprisoned prince to develop his power.

Emperor Yuanwu would rather let King Rui stay in Yanbei and manage the forces he had gathered than let him return to Beijing.

After all, it's to protect the prince, right?

Liu Tong laughed at himself, and said in his heart: "Even if the fifth brother is left in Yanbei, the forces in Beijing have their own I will operate for the fifth brother, and wait for the fifth brother to ......."

I only thought about it halfway in my heart, thinking of the glance that Emperor Yuanwu looked at him before leaving, Liu Tong was stunned.

Seeing his expression change, the fourteenth prince hurriedly asked, "Ninth brother, what's wrong?" ”

Liu Tong took a deep breath: "...... It's nothing. ”

Of course, the fourteenth prince didn't believe it, and followed Liu Tong out of the palace all the way back to the house, seeing that Liu Tong still didn't say anything, he could only leave helplessly, and talked to Chang Runzhi for a while before leaving, and informed her of Liu Tong's strangeness.

After the fourteenth prince left, Chang Runzhi didn't ask Liu Tong for the first time.

She carefully recounted what had happened this morning.

What makes Liu Tong so restless?

Since King Rui left Beijing, he has been more stable than ever, and idle things will not interfere with his mind.

Unless he realizes something big.

Although Chang Runzhi's feelings are keen, he can't easily figure out the joints, and in the end he can only ask Liu Tong, hoping to comfort him.

Liu Tong's lips turned slightly pale, and he muttered two sentences before saying: "My father still intends to protect the prince and leave the fifth brother in Yanbei, because I don't want him to come back and contaminate the forces in Beijing." So...... Next, my father is going to take power from my hands. (To be continued.) )
