Chapter 35: Hearing the Tao of Chang'an Looks Like a Game of Chess (5)

Wang Sizheng looked at the current crown prince Yuanqin in a daze, and was walking around with his feet constantly, as if he was a little stunned, but it was conceivable that he was forced to be extremely depressed by Yuwentai, and he couldn't help but pity His Royal Highness the prince in his heart.

Now that Yuan Xin, the prince of the royal family in the Eight Pillar Kingdoms, has no military power, and can become one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms or Yuwentai knows that he has no ambition and no threat, so he is crowned as the general of the Pillar Kingdom, but he has no real power. And the rest of the Zhuguo forces and Yuwentai forces are intertwined, although Dugu Xin rode alone to follow Emperor Xiaowu Yuan Xiu into the main pass, but he and Yuwentai are fellow villagers and friends, and he will never blatantly support the royal family. Among the last twelve generals and twenty-four Kaifu generals, most of them are Yuwentai's cronies or children of the Yuwen family, and some are the rest of the Zhuguo generals' forces and a few neutral Kansai wealthy generals, and generals like Wang Sizheng who are loyal to the royal family (Hu Sichun was also a confidant of Emperor Xiaowu back then, but unfortunately died young) are really rare.

Now Yuwentai's power is getting bigger and bigger, if he seizes power and usurps the throne one day, then it is conceivable that as the emperor of the previous dynasty, the Yuan Baoju father and son will never have a chance to survive, and they will definitely be killed, it is no wonder that Yuan Qinhui is becoming more and more uneasy, and has to plan to kill Yuwentai from the beginning.

After Wang Sizheng thought calmly, he asked calmly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, almost all the generals of the forbidden army in Chang'an City are Yuwentai's cronies, I don't know how to kill him?" ”

When Yuan Qin heard this, he said happily: "Is General Wang willing to support this king to kill the traitor?" ”

Wang Sizheng replied lightly: "His Royal Highness is the prince of a country, the lord of the world is His Majesty today, and Weichen is the general of Great Wei, of course he must obey His Majesty's orders, but Yuwentai is powerful, and Weichen is stupid, so I really can't think of how to break the situation?" ”

Yuan Lie on the side walked out, "Although the military power in the DPRK is almost controlled by Yuwentai, we have also secretly raised a group of dead soldiers, and secondly, the Xianbei nobles and the Hedong clan who followed Emperor Xiaowu into the pass also have some generals who support the royal family, especially some of the cronies and generals who belonged to General Hu Sichun back then, although the forces have been suppressed and divided for more than ten years, there will always be some lurking in them and secretly supporting the royal family. As for the Hedong clan, for now, the most famous General Naiwang, as long as you raise your arms and exhale, plus our side to lure it to the advantage, move it with affection, and understand it with reason, presumably the Hedong clan will definitely not support Yuwentai's side. ”

After hearing this, Wang Sizheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, and arched his hand towards Yuan Qin and Yuan Lie: "Your Royal Highness, Lord Shangshu, you two are too exalted to me Wang Sizheng, although the Taiyuan Wang clan is also a member of the Hedong clan, but what virtue and how can I command the Pei clan, the Liu clan, the Xue clan and the Hongnong Yang clan in Hedong?" ”

Yuan Qin smiled, "General Wang doesn't have to worry, the reason why these big clans support Yuwentai is not because Yanli and Yuwentai themselves hold military power. As long as Yuwentai dies, when the time comes, the king will not only protect the salt profits of the Hedong clan from damage, and even give them the profits, but also support the children of the major families in Hedong to enter the court as officials, compared to the conditions offered by Yuwentai, it is only high and not low, and your Wang family is one of the beneficiaries. As for the rest of the Hedong clans, this king knew that it would definitely be impossible to directly force them to support the royal family openly, but as long as they could stand still after the matter was completed, it would be better to even send troops to support the royal family. ”

After listening to Yuan Qin's explanation, Wang Sizheng couldn't help but admire his city, this plan is indeed a good strategy, for the Hedong clan who are good at calculation, this business is too cost-effective, as long as Yuwentai dies, the power of Yuwen valve will be paralyzed by more than half, so as long as you can encircle the Hao clan and the Hedong clan, you can win.

After thinking about it, Wang Sizheng bowed and saluted: "Your Highness, this plan can only take effect after Yuwentai is killed, whether it is the Hao clan or the Hedong clan, at present, it is more inclined to support Yuwentai, and Yuwentai is insidious and cunning like Cao Mengde, but it is not as easy to deal with as a reckless man such as Er Zhurong, and now that the soldiers and horses of the whole country are gathered in his hands, Weichen can't think of how to kill him?" ”

After hearing this, Yuan Lie on the side showed a hateful look in his eyes, and said firmly: "General Wang, according to the practice of our dynasty, the army will definitely be stationed in Tongguan, before leaving the division, His Majesty will inevitably lead the important ministers of the court to feast Yuwentai in the imperial city of Chang'an City, and at that time the Quartet Forbidden Army will inevitably relax, I will lead the dead soldiers and the rest of the soldiers to kill them in this palace, if it is successful, it will be announced in the name of Your Majesty, if it fails, it will ......"

In the end, Yuan Lie kept silent, of course Wang Sizheng understood the meaning of his words, if he failed, he would bear it alone, to protect the safety of the royal family, so that he could make a comeback.

Thinking of this, Wang Sizheng couldn't help but be in awe of Yuan Lie, and knelt down to Yuan Qin and Yuan Lie on one knee and said: "Your Highness, Lord Shangshu, Weichen has no real power in Chang'an City, and the only thing that can be directly controlled is the military power of Hongnong, although Yuwentai ordered me to move to Jingzhou, but during this period it will definitely take time to hand over, I will try my best to stay in Hongnong until Yuwentai is killed, and then you will hurry to Hongnong to inform me that I will definitely raise troops in Hongnong to support the royal family, and then send people to help His Highness persuade the Hedong clan to support, It's just that the 50,000 troops stationed in Tongguan, how should His Royal Highness and Lord Monk Shangshu deal with it? Tongguan is only a day's journey from Chang'an, and the generals in the army are almost all Yuwentai's cronies and the rest of the Zhuguo forces, if there is a scene of purgatory on earth during the period of Emperor Xiaozhuang, Your Majesty and His Royal Highness will be in danger! ”

After hearing Wang Sizheng's words, Yuan Qin laughed loudly, "This king has the help of General Wang, for the 50,000 troops stationed in Tongguan after the fact, Yuan Shangshu has already secretly contacted Zhao Gui, Dugu Xin and Hou Mo Chen Chong, in recent years, Yuwentai in order to consolidate the power and strengthen the centralization of the Yuwen family, he has continued to suppress the rest of the pillar clans, they are hindered by the threat of Yuwentai and Kanto Gaohuan, but it does not mean that these Zhuguo generals obey Yuwentai, as long as we kill Yuwentai, They will definitely take over the army, if not completely take over, at least let it stand still, and then great things can be done! ”

Wang Sizheng is not as optimistic as them, but he is extremely worried in his heart, Yuwentai started from the end of the micro, but he became the first person in the Western Wei Dynasty, he is by no means an idle person, and he is as cunning as Cao Mengde, but it is not an exaggeration at all. At that time, Emperor Xiaowu's power during the period when he entered Guanzhong in the west was even greater than now, and he was unable to confront Yuwentai, but Emperor Xiaowu was finally hollowed out and unfortunately killed. And now that the royal family is even weaker, can it really successfully follow Emperor Xiaozhuang's plan back then? To be honest, he doesn't have any confidence at all, but in this situation, how can he get ahead if he doesn't fight......

Walking out of Shangshu Mansion, the sky had become dark, Wang Sizheng stopped and looked at the sky, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "The moon is dark and the wind is high", the sky is getting colder and colder......
