Chapter 417: Eastern Tour
The team heading towards Futu Mountain is called a huge one, and every place it goes to is bound to cause huge repercussions, and Long Xing's body doesn't seem to be very healthy, resulting in the speed of this team, which can be described as turtle speed, and as you walk, you will see a snail crawling to the front......
This formation made the shepherd wolf feel that it was a waste to ride a horse!
Out of Luonan City, the shepherd wolf got off his horse and led the horse away, still bored. Xuanyuan Yi still followed the Son of Heaven's car, and the others didn't bother to talk to the Sky Wolf.
As he was walking, he saw that the team in front of him suddenly stopped, and the wolf was irritable for a while, "Slow down, slow down, how many steps can you take!" ”
Then I heard someone calling out to me in front of me, and when the shepherd wolf looked up, it was actually Xuanyuan Yi!
"Marquis Wuwei, Your Majesty is invited!"
The shepherd wolf thought that Xuanyuan Yi was here to chat with him......
"What is Your Majesty looking for me? Why is the team stagnant? The shepherd asked two questions, but Xuanyuan Yi only answered one.
Xuanyuan Yi came to the front of the Shepherd Wolf and said in a low voice: "There are mountains and rivers ahead, so stop for a while, and I will come with me to see Your Majesty." ”
The question mark of the shepherd wolf's head, where did this horse come from? Xuanyuan Yi, this guy is trying to fool me......
Xuanyuan Yi saw that the shepherd wolf was standing in place and did not move, and hurriedly urged: "What are you doing standing?" Come with me to Your Majesty! It is estimated that Your Majesty is almost done. ”
The shepherd wolf was even more confused, is it over? What the hell ...... "this mountain flowing water...... What is it? ”
Only then did Xuanyuan Yi understand why the shepherd wolf looked a little confused, and hurriedly explained: "Huh! Look at the way you have never seen the world, the mountains and rivers are your majesty's ......."
Sky Wrangler: "......" I'm special! What a good word!
But the shepherd wolf thought about it, why did the Son of Heaven pee, why did he call himself to go?
When the shepherd wolf followed Xuanyuan Yi to the Son of Heaven's car, sure enough, a group of eunuchs were surrounding a small circle with curtains, and after a while, the Son of Heaven Long Xing walked out of it.
The Sky Wolf didn't want to deal with him, so he took two steps forward so that Long Xing could see him and know that he was here.
When Long Xing saw the shepherd wolf, he seemed very affectionate, and hurriedly greeted: "Wuwei Hou is here, do you know why I called you here?" ”
Shepherd Wolf said: "Forgive the ministers for being stupid, and I hope Your Majesty will make it clear!" ”
Long Xing pointed to the east and said, "Futu Mountain is a long way to go, I'm afraid it won't be possible to reach it in a short time." When I arrived in Donglin City, I planned to change to a dragon boat, so that not only would there be fewer bumps, but the speed would naturally be much faster. Therefore, I wanted to send someone to the east of the city to supervise the construction and supervise the completion of the dragon boat construction. ”
When the shepherd wolf heard this, generally speaking, this kind of thing is not arranged by the British king? Is Long Xing going to let himself go to oversee the work? So, the shepherd wolf said a little puzzled: "Could it be that Your Majesty summoned the ministers to come here for the sake of the dragon boat?" ”
Long Xing nodded and said, "That's right, King Ying, he is old, how can he have martial arts to be neat." ”
As soon as these words came out, the shepherd wolf felt that Long Xing was going to unload the mill and kill the donkey...... King Long Rui, who has been working hard for most of his life to make money for Dragon Star, ended up like this.
The Six Princes Long Cuo and the British King Long Rui were the first people to go to Donglin City, in order to arrange everything in Donglin City for Long Xing, so that the matter of moving the empire's capital could go smoothly. Later, when the queen collapsed, the seven princesses, and the county lord returned to the capital, the six princes also returned to the capital together.
Although the queen is not the biological mother of the six princes, she is his nominal mother after all, and the process that should be followed still has to be followed.
As for the British King, there is no need to return to the capital, so the British King has always been in the eastern city for the Dragon Star layout, probably still those money-making bureaus.
But what makes the shepherd wolf curious is, why did Long Xing suddenly want to kill the British King?
Could it be that the King of England is carrying the Dragon Star on his back to touch the bottom line of the Dragon Star? Or is it because the King of England and the Six Princes are too close? Or is it that the King of England, like Qianniuwei, also clearly knows the shady deeds that Long Xing has done, and he still has evidence?
These things are indeed difficult to determine for a while, but what the Shepherd Wolf can be sure of is that Long Xing has to bring him here this time, in order to let him kill those people that Long Xing wants to kill!
He was once again treated as a tool and a sharp blade by Long Xing, which made the shepherd wolf very unhappy in his heart, and he became more and more determined in his thoughts, he wanted to teach Long Xing a lesson!
The shepherd wolf arched his hand and said, "The minister will listen to His Majesty's arrangement. ”
Seeing that the Shepherd Wolf looked quite obedient, Long Xing began to order, "I appointed Wuwei Hou Mutian Wolf as the minister of the Qin Mission, and went to Donglin City with the holy decree to supervise the construction of the dragon boat, and when I arrived in Donglin City, the dragon boat must be completed and can travel at any time!" Otherwise, it is disrespectful and will be severely punished! As for the difficulties in the construction of the dragon boat, I believe that Wu Weihou should be able to handle it, and if someone obstructs it and deliberately slows down the construction progress of the dragon boat, I will allow you to cut it first and then play it! ”
As soon as these words came out, the six princes on the side panicked and hurriedly said: "Father, the son has something to do!" ”
Long Xing said: "Cuo'er, if you have anything, you can tell me directly." ”
The sixth prince looked at the shepherd wolf and said: "Father, Wuwei Hou is already too murderous, and at this moment he is even more guilty, if his father gives Wuwei Hou the right to cut first and then play, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid it will cause a big disaster! I still hope that my father will think twice......"
After the sixth prince finished speaking, Jiang Zhi, the servant of the ministry on the side, also helped: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what the Sixth Highness said is not unreasonable. Everyone knows that Wu Weihou is brutal by nature and never takes human life seriously, but now he is a criminal body, and he must not be given the power of life and death! ”
The shepherd wolf was a little depressed, and it was okay to run on himself in the court, why did a group of people standing on the road start to run on themselves now?! The sixth prince and the king of England are a little dirty in private, he doesn't want the shepherd wolf to go to Donglin City to kill, of course, this is reasonable, but why did this Jiang Zhi stand up and attack himself?
Could it be that this person who eats soft rice has come together with the six princes? Doesn't that mean that the right prime minister, Huang Shi, and the southern scholars also stood behind the six princes......
The shepherd wolf felt that the water in it was getting muddy and muddy, and it seemed that the news of Long Xing's imminent death had been known to most of the courtiers, and these courtiers had also begun to stand in line, choosing the prince who they felt was hopeful.
It's a pity, whoever these people are standing behind now is a dead end, as long as they dare to jump out and go against Long Xing, they will fall into the trap that Long Xing has already set! Because, Long Xing's illness at the moment was largely disguised by him, and his illness was far from the point of dying immediately......
The Sky Shepherd Wolf felt more and more that Long Xing was a poisonous snake hidden in the shadows, calculating others all the time, and once his prey moved at all, he would kill it with one blow!
Long Xing listened to the words of the Six Princes and Jiang Zhi, and said, "You guys are too worried, I just allowed Marquis Wu Wei to cut off the people who hindered the construction of the dragon boat first, and I didn't say that he could kill innocents indiscriminately!" Isn't this also so that I can get to Futu Mountain as soon as possible...... Okay, you don't have to persuade anymore, I've made up my mind! Shepherd wolf, you can go now, I'm a little tired, and I'm going back to Longlin to rest......"
After the dragon star got on the dragon chariot, the team began to set off again. The old eunuch Wei Ling came over and gave a holy decree to the shepherd wolf, and the shepherd wolf opened the holy decree to confirm it, and the content in it was no different from what Long Xing just said, that is, he ordered himself to be the minister of the Qin Mission, supervise the construction of dragon boats, and have the power of life and death.
This is also good news for the shepherd, at least he has something to do, and he doesn't have to be so boring......
The shepherd wolf is not boring, but Long Cuo is a little panicked, the king of England is a big help for himself, if there is any handle caught by the shepherd wolf, and he is killed in a daze, wouldn't it be too wronged!
So, when the party settled in Lingbao City, the next stop in the evening, Long Cuo hurriedly sent a letter to the British king.
After entering Lingbao City, the second prince and Yuwen Huai'an were very calm, there was no power of the second prince in Donglin City, even if the shepherd wolf would make trouble in Donglin City, it would not matter to them.
But Yuwen Huai'an still couldn't help but say: "Your Highness, it seems that Your Majesty has now begun to make arrangements for the aftermath, and we have to prepare early......
The second prince, Long Yuan, said: "Prepare early? Hehehehe...... Prime Minister Yuwen, you still don't understand my father, believe it or not, whoever prepares more now will die faster?! Hahahaha, anyway, I've seen through it, my father's pit of water is unfathomable......"
Hearing this, Yuwen Huai'an thought for a moment and said, "What does Your Highness mean?" ”
The second prince said: "It's very simple, whatever the father says, we will do it!" As for the others, don't they have six brothers? ”
Yuwen Huai'an said: "Your Highness means to let the Sixth Highness go and test the water first?" But now there are Yongliang Li clans, Li Guifei, and King Ying behind the Sixth Highness, and they have won over the southern scholar clan headed by the right prime minister Huang Shi, which should not be underestimated! If we keep waiting, I'm afraid that if the situation changes, we will lose the opportunity......"
After Concubine Chu's death, the current second prince seems to have grown a lot, and said: "The Yongliang Li clan is just a paper tiger with teeth extracted, and it can't make much waves." As for Concubine Li, her father didn't take her with her on her Eastern Tour, what weight could she have? If she really had weight, she would have died with the queen and my mother by now! The King? Isn't there a shepherd wolf...... I think I don't hate the shepherd wolf so much now, and I don't think I'm ......."
The laughter of the second prince made Yuwen Huai'an feel a little hairy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness is saying that Your Majesty sent the Shepherd Wolf to Donglin City, ostensibly to supervise the construction of dragon boats, but in fact, to attack the British King?" ”
The second prince stared at Yuwen Huai'an's eyes and said very mischievously: "What do you say? Hahaha...... The queen mother is right, in the Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, what is the use of the crown prince? There is no use for fart! As long as my brothers are dead and I am the only prince, do I have to worry about not inheriting the throne? Now the sixth brother can compete with me, doesn't he have a big move, then I will help him, let him see and understand, the fear of my father! ”
Yuwen Huai'an knew that the second prince was determined to let the sixth prince test the waters.
This is also a big gamble, if the bet wins, all this is a trap for the Son of Heaven, then the six princes will follow the old path of the prince and be ruthlessly crushed by the Son of Heaven! The second prince will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
If the bet is lost, this is not a trap for the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven has really run out of oil, and the six princes will rely on the forces he has attracted to successfully ascend the throne and inherit the unification......
Yuwen Huai'an has no other way, since he has already chosen the second prince, now he can only accompany the second prince to gamble.
In fact, the second prince thought more than Yuwen Huai'an, the reason why he dared to bet so much, at such an important juncture, did not do anything at all, not only because he felt that he had seen through the Son of Heaven Dragon Star, but also because he had a way out, this way of retreat, other princes did not have! Therefore, the second prince gambled.
This retreat is Yu Hualong, who has already torn the earth and sealed the king in Shu.
Once the second prince realizes that he has really lost the opportunity and has no chance of winning, then he will not hesitate to flee to Shu and take refuge in Yu Hualong! At that time, it is still unknown who will kill the deer.
Compared with the calmness of the second prince, the sixth prince couldn't calm down at all, because the shepherd wolf went to Donglin City, where there was the most important move laid by the six princes!
The right prime minister, Huang Shi, assisted the five princes in guarding Kyoto in the capital, so now the think tank next to the six princes is Jiang Zhi, the servant of the ministry.
Jiang Zhi saw that the six princes were a little confused, so he said: "Your Highness, don't be impatient, the shepherd wolf is just ordered to supervise the construction of the dragon boat, and it has nothing to do with the bureau we have laid out, we must not mess with ourselves!" I believe that the King of England knows which is more important, and will not let the Sky Shepherd find out about our plan......"
The sixth prince was still a little panicked, "If it's someone else, I naturally won't be nervous, but ...... But that's the butcher! And listening to my father's tone, he is deliberately targeting the British king, could it be that our plan has been discovered by my father? ”
Jiang Zhi hurriedly said: "Your Highness! I am determined to help you because we value the ability of Your Highness, if you are so impetuous, timid, how can you achieve great things? ”
When Long Cuo heard Jiang Zhi say this, he also felt that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly said: "What Mr. taught me is that Long Cuo knows that he is wrong!" I hope Mr. advises, what should we do next? ”
Jiang Zhi saw that Long Cuo's mood had stabilized, so he whispered in his ear: "Naturally, we will respond to all changes with the same, as long as we don't mess up, the shepherd wolf may not pose a threat to us!" The shepherd wolf also has hatred for His Majesty! ”
When Long Cuo heard this, he was overjoyed, "Mr. is ...... Hahaha, so I feel at ease. ”
After stabilizing the dragon house, Jiang Zhi walked out of the room of the six princes, then sighed and said, "Alas, this is not the male lord......"
Jiang Zhi could see that the six princes were not the male lords, and his good friend Huang Shi had no reason not to see the depth of the dragon house. But Huang Shi still decided to tie the lifeblood of the Southern Shi clan to Long Cuo, because Huang Shi had no one to choose from......
Huang Shi had been worried that Long Xingxing would settle accounts after the fall because of the rebellion of the former general Wei Xingyun. Now that Long Xing is critically ill and dying, Huangshi is even more worried!
A ruthless person like Long Xing, who is critically ill and dying, and has great power, no one knows what he will do! Wei Xingyun has a close relationship with the southern scholars, and once he rebels, the southern scholars will not be able to wash themselves even if they jump into the Yellow River......
If the Son of Heaven really plans to ring the alarm bell for the Southern Shi clan before he dies, the first thing to do is definitely to attack the Huang family, where the right prime minister is located!
Huang Shi originally wanted his grandson Huang Shiyong to go to the county lord of Dangyang, and then rely on the power of the queen mother to protect the Huang family, but now it seems that the road of the county lord of Dangyang will not work, because Huang Shiyong has completely subdued the wolf herder.
Therefore, in desperation, Huang Shi had no choice but to make a risky move and bet on the six princes.
Behind the six princes is the western Shi clan, the most prominent is the Yongliang Li clan, the other Dou clan, the Zhao clan, and the Dugu clan, which are basically based on the Li clan, but now these Shi clans have been suppressed by the Son of Heaven, once the six princes succeed to the throne, while reusing the western Shi clan, he must also reuse the southern Shi clan to compete with the Hebei Shi clan and the Qilu Shi clan.
This is the reason why Huangshi chose the six princes.
In addition to the Six Princes Longcuo, the remaining Three Princes Longtu and the Four Princes Longqin, in Huangshi's opinion, are used to fill the numbers.
The fifth prince Long Xiang, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this prince has no idea about the throne at all, and he has not been involved from beginning to end. His goal is to be the next War King! But when the queen was alive, she had to let the five princes fight for the throne.
Because in the queen's opinion, the world is calm, why do you want to fight the king? A peaceful world, will the existence of the war king be allowed? It's a pity that the queen is dead, and the fifth prince is not interested in the throne at all now......
What is left is the second prince Long Yuan and the sixth prince Long Cuo, compared to Long Cuo, Long Yuan seems to be more calm, but Long Yuan has just suffered a defeat, Concubine Chu was killed because of rebellion, the Yuwen family is no longer favored by the Son of Heaven, and the hussar general Yu Hualong also rebelled, and the second prince is inappropriate at first glance......
Therefore, Huangshi and the southern scholars thought about it, and could only choose the six princes Longcuo. Moreover, they decided to do something exciting with the Six Princes......
Anyway, it's all a gamble, the bet wins, the glory is rich, and the family is prosperous! If you lose the bet, the big deal is that the golden cicada will come out of its shell, endure it for a hundred years, and make a comeback!
These families never put their eggs in one basket, and whenever the court is turbulent and the dynasty changes, they can always leave a way back for themselves. How else to talk about the dynasty of flowing water and the iron-beaten warriors?
Anyway, the Southern Shi clan was a little afraid of Long Xing, the smiling tiger, for fear that he would fight back before he died, so they decided to make a desperate bet and strike first!
As for these arrangements of the six princes, the second prince plans to help the six princes, and he wants to pour some oil on this fire......
As for Tianzi Longxing, he still looks like he is going to die on the surface, but his heart is as bright as a mirror, he is waiting for all the people with bad intentions to take the initiative to send it to the door......
