Chapter 696: Scapegoat

"What is the purpose, the old man, as the general of the left guard, should be the guard of His Majesty, and he has no other intentions, what kind of purpose and appeal can he have?" Fan Yi frowned slightly, and he didn't know if he was a little panicked in his heart or wanted to test Mr. Jiang.

And Mr. Jiang stretched out his hand unhurriedly, and said with a smile: "Li Xinchen framed General Zuowei, so that General Zuowei Mingsheng and secretly descended to this point, and he can only sit in the dark room and drink to drown his sorrows······"

While speaking, Mr. Jiang glanced at the wine glass, and Fan Yi coughed lightly, not denying this fact after all. Mr. Jiang then said: "Ming people don't say secret words, and General Zuo Wei is also a bold person, so he can directly admit it, for Li Xinchen, the general can't have a little mustard in his heart, right?" ”

Fan Yi gasped, Mr. Jiang's straightforward speech was indeed unexpected by him, what did this person come for, and whose orders did he take, what did he want to do? Could it be ······

Nodding slowly, Fan Yi didn't speak, just stared at Mr. Jiang tightly.

And Mr. Jiang smiled slightly: "In this way, don't General Zuo Wei and Donggong have something in common?" Since we have something in common, we can stand together. ”

"Common Ground ······" Fan Yi was a little relaxed, he knew why Donggong was so anxious to unite with him, and now that Li Xinchen was acting so strongly, it was obvious that Donggong had felt threatened. After all, the East Palace is the master of the entire imperial court in the future, and now Xu Ling, Wu Mingche and others are on Li Xinchen's side, which naturally makes the East Palace feel threatened.

The attitudes of Xu Ling and Wu Mingche were not clear before, and these two old men had also supported the East Palace before, and even the fact that the East Palace could control the military power was only achieved by Wu Mingche's full efforts, otherwise there were veterans such as Chun Yuliang and Fan Yi, and it would not be Xiao Maha's turn to take the position. Because the two of them have been turning a blind eye, many officials below thought that the East Palace was destined to be the most powerful force in the future, so they began to move closer to the East Palace.

However, now Xu Ling and Wu Mingche have all fallen to Li Xinchen, so that many people have to move their butts quickly while being shocked, and at this time, the East Palace was surprised to find that the officials who were originally waiting in front of the door to see have disappeared without a trace at this time, and some of the officials who had been speaking for the East Palace also ran to the door of Li Xinchen's mansion, so it is conceivable who they will face next time.

It can be said that the momentum of the East Palace was like this before, more because the courtiers under Xu Ling and Wu Mingche were vying to take refuge first, but now that a Cheng Biting Jin was killed halfway, they obviously had the rest of the choices, and there was nothing to do with the East Palace.

In other words, the reason why the East Palace can call the wind and rain in the court is not because these officials feel that the East Palace is indeed worth taking refuge into, but because they have no choice of adventure, and it is obvious that Li Xinchen is a better choice than the East Palace now.

I have to sigh here that the world is impermanent, but the East Palace must also take certain measures, otherwise who can guarantee that Li Xinchen will not threaten the safety of the East Palace if he continues to swell like this, and even threaten Chen Shubao's throne in the future. After all, now that His Majesty's physical condition is well known, if His Majesty irresponsibly kicks his legs one day, then Donggong will have no way to deal with Li Xinchen on his own.

Mr. Jiang, Kong Fan and others, who originally accompanied Chen Shubao on a tour of the mountains and rivers every day, were obviously aware of this problem, and they still had a little self-knowledge after all, knowing that people like Li Xinchen would inevitably stay away, so since they were already in the carriage of the East Palace, there was no way to jump down, so they could only follow Shen Jungao and others forward, only hoping that they could unite more forces and at least be able to fight against Li Xinchen.

At least we can't let the world know that there is Zhenxi General Li Xinchen, but I don't know that there is a prince Chen Shubao.

And among so many courtiers, it is obvious that Fan Yi and the Fan family behind him are the most suitable candidates. After all, everyone else may defect, but Fan Yi, who was once cheated by Li Xinchen, will definitely not let go of the mustard in his heart so easily, and more importantly, Fan Yi, as the general of the left guard, controls the palace guards and the capital forbidden army, which is definitely a rare role.

After all, the one-third acre of Jiankang Mansion is at least the home of the East Palace, and the East Palace can only be here if it wants to defeat Li Xinchen.

Thinking about this, and knowing that Donggong came to the door sincerely this time, Fan Yi subconsciously straightened his waist, he had a deep grudge against Li Xinchen in his heart, and if he could join forces with Donggong to clean up Li Xinchen this time, it would indeed be a good opportunity.

In the final analysis, the prince of the East Palace is still the orthodoxy of the entire Nan Chen, and Li Xinchen has already lost to the East Palace at this point.

"Then what does the East Palace need to do?" Fan Yi's voice was slightly suppressed, and he was already a little more respectful.

Mr. Jiang obviously realized that what he was going to say next was very important, and his voice was low:

"Now Li Xinchen is very powerful, in fact, this is just His Majesty's compromise with Li Xinchen, with His Majesty's suspicious character, he will definitely not tolerate Li Xinchen being so powerful, it is conceivable that when the war starts, once the war is smooth, then it will be the time for Li Xinchen to lose. But there is a problem, that is, according to what Li Xinchen said, it is still unknown when we will be able to fight this battle, whether it will be success or failure, not to mention that His Majesty's dragon body is not safe, so everything is well planned, but there will inevitably be unexpected changes at that time, so while Li Xinchen is still in Jiankang Mansion, ······"

Fan Yi raised his eyebrows, Donggong just wanted to do it in advance? This was unexpected, and Li Xinchen is now in the midst of his prestige, I'm afraid that even Chen Ji can't directly suppress him, and Donggong wants to do it at this time, saying that it sounds better to "face difficulties", and it is difficult to say "self-defeating", if Donggong just thinks so, then Fan Yi doesn't want to go through this troubled water.

The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, this truth Fan Yi is very clear, once it is used to himself, it must be the time to use the sword and soldiers, to be honest, this is Chiguoguo's coup d'état, although the target is not His Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely not watch such a thing happen around him.

Donggong has the courage to attack Li Xinchen this time, will he have the courage to attack himself next time? After all, if Chen Shubao is allowed to sit on the throne one day earlier, these courtiers in the East Palace will be able to completely control the power of the world one day earlier, so it is impossible for Chen Ji not to have such doubts.

And when the time comes, the East Palace will definitely give His Majesty a reasonable explanation, if he chooses a scapegoat, how can Fan Yi ensure that this scapegoat is not himself?
