Inside Jinling City.

A regal mansion.

Originally, it was a family of land wealth, but it was bought by Zhongshan Wang Xiang Fei with a lot of money.

Xiang Fei, the king of Zhongshan, stared at the more than ten secret letters on the table, and his fat body was like being in a cold cave, shivering.

Since the Lantern Festival, Xiang Fei asked the imperial court to stay in Jinling City, the capital of the Great Chu Emperor, in the name of recuperating from illness and not easy to go out.

He mingled with a group of gentlemen all day long, eating, drinking and having fun, and was quite famous in Jinling City, nicknamed "Fat King".

Because he was in Jinling City, Xiang Fei almost immediately knew the news that the imperial court wanted to "prohibit the private minting of copper coins".

He didn't think it was at first.

Seal it!

If you don't, you won't have it, and it's just a matter of spending a little less money.

Anyway, Zhongshan Kingdom is located in the rich Great Plains, there is no copper mountain to mint copper coins, and the taxes of more than ten cities alone are also extremely huge income, which is inexhaustible for him to squander and enjoy.

It's a big deal, just save a little bit of the cost of Zhongshan Kingdom and reduce the use of those concubines and descendants. It doesn't even affect him to enjoy it in Jinling City.

But soon, Xiang Fei realized that something was wrong.

There were actually many princes and kings who sent him secret letters, inviting him to participate in the rebellion, and to kill the culprit Xiao Duhou and throw the cup as a sign to overthrow the Great Chu Chaotian together.

Among them are Wu Wang Xiang Bi, Chu Wang Xiang Wu, Zhao Wang Xiang Sui, Jinan Wang Xiang Piguang... More than a dozen princes.

Those are the strongest and most powerful princes and kings of Great Chu.

This is a rebellion!

Xiang Fei was so frightened that the six gods had no master.

"What can I do... They are going to rebel, and when they go, they will bring in the king. This king has no such ambition!

They... Whoever becomes the emperor is the same, it has nothing to do with this king!

Why did they call me? If these letters are searched, will the emperor think that I have colluded with them to rebel together? ”

Xiang Fei's face turned pale with fright, and he cried anxiously, holding the hand of one of his strategists, and hurriedly inquired.

The strategist shook his head and sighed when he saw the lord's cowardice.

They are all descendants of the Xiang family, descendants of Taizu Xiang Yu, why is there such a big difference?

Let's not talk about how strong the emperor is!

Xiang Bi, King of Wu, Xiang Wu, King of Chu... Pick a prince at random, don't mention the strength, which one is not arrogant?

was banned by the emperor and immediately began to prepare for a rebellion, who was afraid of the emperor.

But Xiang Fei, the king of Zhongshan, can't be supported... Muddy. Even if the strategist had the heart to assist, he could not help him not to go up the wall.

"My lord, since you have no intention of following the princes to rebel. Then immediately write a letter to the emperor to show their loyalty and expose their crimes of treason. In this way, the emperor will treat you differently! ”

The advisor sighed and persuaded.

"No, I can't offend those Xiang brothers, if I denounce them, won't they hate this king to the bone.... They may not have the power to win the imperial court, but it is easy to destroy our Zhongshan Kingdom!

They are so angry that they will send men to kill me! In case King Wu's rebellion succeeds, the king's bones will definitely not exist. ”

Xiang Fei hurriedly shook his head and rattle.

He had a clear heart.

When you are a traitor, you are most hated. Even if the princes fail to rebel, they will definitely take him as the king of Zhongshan and crush his bones and ashes.

He is not worthy of this wicked man.

"Well, if that doesn't work... Then the lord should have done nothing and continued to eat, drink and be merry. Neither participated in the rebellion nor snitched.

It is estimated that the letter of the princes and kings to raise troops, that is, to send it to you casually, did not take it seriously.

You don't take part in the rebellion, and they won't mind too much. ”

Strategist.

He speculated that the princes and kings might not really want the King of Zhongshan to participate... After all, some people are born with insufficient success and more than failure.

In the case of Xiang Fei, the king of Zhongshan, he may be the first to be defeated on the battlefield, causing chaos among the princes.

If it weren't for the sake of a mouthful of food, he wouldn't want to follow a timid and cowardly king like Xiang Fei.

"Actually, you don't need to worry too much, it's still quite safe in Jinling City, as a gentleman who only cares about pleasure, no one wants to use you, so you will naturally get out of the matter.

Xiao Duhou has been exposed, and he has been pretending to be the No. 1 gentleman in Jinling for more than ten years, and finally his strength has been exposed. Now the name is too loud, and the princes are probably going to him. The emperor is also suspicious of him in his heart, and his surveillance of the little dusk marquis is far more than yours. ”

The advisor reassured.

Xiang Fei's eyes lit up, "Yes, the little faint marquis stabbed the hornet's nest, and the princes must hate him to the core, and they will definitely want to deal with him." This king, the idle king, is insignificant to the overall situation, and he is a little too worried! ”

As long as he is incompetent enough, no one will want to take advantage of him.

This is the way to protect oneself in troubled times.

...

"It's time for Chu to lose the world and compete with each other!"

Xiang Anshi, the elegant prince of Huainan, with a group of dozens of close guards, galloped out of the Jinling Imperial City.

Xiang Anselema stopped, looked back at the tall and mighty Jinling City, a little nostalgic and a little disappointed.

He also stayed in Jinling City for nearly half a year, visiting the gate valve, making friends, and spreading his magnificent demeanor of King Huainan to win people's hearts.

From the day he was a child who offered "Forbidden Copper", he smelled that something was wrong.

As soon as this strategy came out, the princes and kings of the world would be angry and ready to move.

Moreover, he has received secret letters from King Wu, King Chu and others in recent days, and they have made an appointment to raise troops, which makes him understand clearly.

A magnificent world war is imminent!

The Great Chu court couldn't wait to promote the new deal.... Step by step, the necks of the princes were tightened.

The princes didn't want to sit still, and they must have to fight back.

Three months at the earliest and six months at the latest.

A huge civil war will break out in the Great Chu Dynasty!

He wanted to rush back to Shouchun, the capital of Huainan Province, to preside over the overall situation. Hurry up to build a batch of sophisticated weapons, and secretly recruit soldiers and horses to prepare for the army.

In this world, he will never give up to King Wu, King Chu, King Zhao and others.

He Xiang Anshi gathered students from all over the world in Shouchun and studied hard for decades, and he was the true son of heaven and the emperor of the ages with extensive knowledge.

Raise your arms and exhale, and the world will follow.

Now.

He's leaving!

This time he came to Jinling City, and the most amazing wizard he had ever seen was Xiao Duhou.

It's a pity that he couldn't recruit Xiao Duhou in Jinling City, so he used it.

The talent of the little Duhou is too strong, he invented the Duhou paper, the Di Bao, the imperial examination system, and wrote the huge work "The Story of the Stone", as well as the new "Journey to the West" and so on, which are popular in Dachu.

The world is noble, and no one can stand out.

It's a pity that the emperor Lao'er was suspicious in his heart and refused to do anything for the little dusk marquis.

The status of Xiao Duhou in Da Chu is also very special, he is the remnant of Chu in the previous dynasty, the hereditary Duhou Hou, and the son-in-law of King Ping, and it is impossible for him to take refuge in King Huainan.

This disappointed him.

"Little Dusk Hou, I hope you don't die!

This king is extremely generous-minded, loves like life, and reuses his subordinates the most. When this king unifies Dachu and ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, he will definitely worship you as the prime minister.

I am the king of the world, you are the sage of the world, you and I work together to create a towering Chu, it must be a story through the ages! ”

Xiang Anshi took a deep look at Jinling City, turned his head and resolutely rode his horse to the Dajiang Ferry, returning to Huainan Shouchun.
