Chapter 510: Controversy

"That's right, there is indeed a contradiction between the two highnesses, but can we just ignore it, and then put His Royal Highness King Xing in the field all the time, and never let him return to Jinling City? Shouldn't we take advantage of the fact that Your Majesty is young and strong, and it is precisely when the three kingdoms of Zhou, Chen, and Qi are in a state of truce to help the two Highnesses resolve the contradictions, should we wait until the state affairs are busy and the war situation is urgent in the future, so that Your Majesty can spend a lot of energy to deal with the contradictions between the two Highnesses? Zhang Hua said with reason.

"And with His Majesty here, even if the two Highnesses fight each other, how fierce can they be? Therefore, the so-called serious consequences that Cai Shangshu said just now are simply alarmist, and these things are impossible! It's Cai Shangshu, just now just based on this secret letter from General Xiao, he exaggerated that he and His Royal Highness King Xing have ulterior motives, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only close to Cai Shangshu, but also has dealings with many ministers in the court, so can I also think that you have ulterior secrets? Zhang Hua said with a sneer.

"You, you are strong words, blood spurting! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the Chen State, and of course he has the responsibility of auxiliary government, so it is only natural that he has dealings with the ministers! But this Xiao Yao, born in the rivers and lakes, although he has made a lot of contributions to our Da Chen, but he is too arrogant and domineering, and even threatens His Majesty with his merits, asking His Majesty to appoint him as the assassin of Xuzhou, which shows that he is a sinister person who works in scheming! At the beginning, without the permission of His Majesty, he privately proposed an armistice and peace talks to the State of Qi, and at this time he asked to transfer King Xing back to Jinling City. Cai Jingli said excitedly.

"Haha, everyone knows that when General Xiao was in Jiangzhou, he once offended Cai Shangshu, so now Cai Shangshu is so prejudiced against General Xiao and says bad things about his colleagues in front of His Majesty?" Zhang Hua sneered sharply.

"General Xiao has made great contributions to Chen Guoguo, and His Majesty appointed him as the assassin of Xuzhou, which is a matter of course, and he took the initiative to propose an armistice and peace talks to Qi State, which is also forced by the situation, is Cai Shangshu not afraid that when our Da Chen continues to attack Qi State, he will be picked up by Zhou State, and then wave his army south to attack our Da Chen? When the time comes, will our Da Chen have the ability to resist the attack of the Zhou State? Zhang Hua retorted one by one.

"And now we are discussing whether to transfer His Royal Highness King Xing back to Jinling City, why does Cai Shangshu keep holding on to General Xiao? I think this is Cai Shangshu's ulterior motives! Zhang Hua said with a sneer.

"Shut up! I want to hear your views on whether or not to transfer King Xing back to Jinling, not to listen to you attacking each other here and speaking ill of your colleagues! Chen Xu said angrily: "Cai Jingli, you were right just now, King Xing hasn't come back yet, you are arguing here, if he comes back, you won't demolish this Jinling City!" ”

"Your Majesty is angry!" The ministers immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"But Zhang Hua, you are also right, the two brothers have indeed always been incompatible, and even formed gangs above the court, slandering each other and attacking each other! If I don't take advantage of the time now to resolve the contradictions between them, it will definitely become a cauldron in the future! Chen Xu shook his head angrily and said.

And the ministers kneeling down were not angry, and they were secretly thinking about it!

Cai Jingli thought secretly: Your Majesty, the contradiction between these two highnesses, you think that it can be resolved by saying that it can be resolved! The root of their contradiction is that they are competing for the most honorable throne of Chen State, and the emperor who doesn't want to do it, which means that this contradiction between them is impossible to resolve! If you are still transferring King Xing back, isn't this tantamount to telling King Xing that he still has hope to compete for the throne, which is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire and making him fight with the crown prince more intensely!

And Chen Hua secretly thought: Fortunately, Shiro asked Zu Yuan to bring me a message in advance, saying that he had written to His Majesty, asking for King Xing to be transferred back to Jinling City, and then led us to confront the prince head-on, so I can come prepared today! A few years ago, His Majesty suddenly transferred King Xing out of Jinling City, and as a result, our people were all strongly suppressed by the crown prince! Later, Xiao Shilang, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, finally came, took the initiative to challenge the prince on our behalf, and also carried out a comprehensive blow to the prince and his Yinhai Commercial Bank, regardless of whether it was above the court or in business, which made us exhale and raise our eyebrows! However, now Shiro has also been appointed as the assassin of Xuzhou, and he is also far away from the imperial court, so we must try to persuade His Majesty to transfer King Xing back this time and lead us to continue to fight against the crown prince!

"Your Majesty, in fact, the fundamental reason why the two Highnesses have a conflict is that Your Majesty himself knows it! Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was canonized as the crown prince because he was His Majesty's eldest son, as long as His Majesty still reuses His Royal Highness King Xing one day, then the contradiction between them cannot be easily resolved! Therefore, Wei Chen suggested that as long as His Majesty has not made up his mind for a day to let His Royal Highness inherit the throne, then try not to let the two Highnesses meet together, so as not to intensify their contradictions! Cai Jingli directly picked out the topic and continued to persuade.

"Then if you persuade Your Majesty not to transfer His Royal Highness King Xing back to Jinling, isn't it tantamount to forcing Your Majesty to make up your mind now, and to choose His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to inherit the throne of Da Chen? It has been almost four years since His Royal Highness King Xing was transferred out of Jinling, and in these four years, His Royal Highness King Xing has been able to see His Majesty only a handful of times, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can serve by His Majesty's side every day, so it seems that His Majesty has made a decision? If this is the case, then please ask Your Majesty to make it clear to His Royal Highness King Xing, and directly cut off his thoughts, so that the contradiction between the two Highnesses can be completely resolved! Zhang Hua said with retreat.

Hearing Zhang Hua's words, Chen Xu's heart really leaned to Chen Shuling's side because of guilt, because Chen Shuling, as his favorite son, had indeed not returned to Jinling City to see him a few times in the past few years, and Chen Shuling probably became extremely irritable because he felt that he had lost his father's sacred heart, and did all kinds of ridiculous things in the realm under his jurisdiction!

According to the secret report that came back from Xiangzhou before, Xiangzhou has become a miasma in the governance of His Royal Highness King Xing, and the people are complaining, and many barbarians have to flee into the deep mountains and old forests to escape the governance of His Royal Highness King Xing! So now, if we transfer His Royal Highness Xingwang back to Jinling, do we use the reason of promotion or debasement? If the scourge of the people can still be promoted, then everyone in the world will think that His Majesty is a cronyism? If it's derogatory, but if it's transferred back to Jinling City, is it still degraded? Therefore, we still warn His Royal Highness King Xing first, and ask him to correct his mistakes in Xiangzhou and benefit the people, and His Majesty will transfer him back to Jinling City! Cai Jingli objected from another angle.

"His Royal Highness King Xing is only nineteen years old now, it is inevitable that he is young and vigorous, and he has been serving in other places for a long time, of course his temper will become a little impatient, and those alien barbarians in Xiangzhou have always been different from us Han people, so it is understandable that they have opinions on the governance of His Royal Highness King Xing! And it is precisely in this way that His Majesty should transfer His Royal Highness Xingwang back to Jinling City, by His Majesty's side, with the majesty of His Majesty, he will definitely be strict with himself, no longer misbehave, and become a dutiful and benevolent prince! Zhang Hua also retorted.
