That exclamation was caused by Zhao Hongrun's accidental exclamation.

Because he never thought that his third uncle, Zhao Yuanzuo, would drown his newborn son in the lake.

I remember that a moment ago, Zhao Hongrun was secretly amused that the third uncle would say something like "although I have been very careful, but the insider is unfortunately pregnant", thinking that it was a humor, but now after hearing that the third uncle drowned his own son in the lake on the day he was born, he couldn't laugh.

As the so-called tiger poison does not eat children, Zhao Hongrun really can't imagine how ruthless his third uncle Zhao Yuanzuo is, and he will drown his newborn son in the lake.

However, having said that, the reason why he did this, Zhao Hongrun could guess a little.

However, this matter could no longer allow Zhao Hongrun to think about it again, because his subconscious exclamation had already exposed his position, so that Wei Tianzi and Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, both turned their heads when they heard the sound.

"The wind is howling!"

Zhao Hongrun hurriedly retreated.

However, Zhao Hongrun, Zongwei Shen Yu and Gao Kuo, who fled the "crime scene" in a panic, did not notice that when they fled, behind a tree behind them, a middle-aged man in armor was looking at their backs and shook his head speechlessly.

This middle-aged man with a resolute face is the chief of Wei Tianzi's sect guard during the princely period, and the current president of the Three Guards Army, Li Cheng.

At the same time, outside the forest, Wei Tianzi and the King of Nanliang still looked at the figures who fled in a hurry in the garden with suspicious expressions.

In this regard, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, was very surprised, he couldn't imagine that anyone had the courage to peek and eavesdrop on him to meet with the current Great Wei Tianzi.

In comparison, Wei Tianzi's face showed a little helplessness. Obviously, he had already guessed who that bold guy was: looking at the great Great Wei, except for his son Zhao Hongrun, no one had the courage to do so!

At this time, Li Cheng came out of the garden and hugged his fist towards Wei Tianzi. He said without concealment: "Your Majesty, it is His Royal Highness King Su and Shen Yu and Gao Kuo. ”

"That bastard ...... boy"

Wei Tianzi rubbed his eyebrow bone with a headache, and asked suspiciously, "Do you see it?" ”

Li Cheng smiled and said, "The last general has been standing behind the three of His Royal Highness King Su for a while, but they haven't noticed it. ”

Wei Tianzi was happy when he heard this, and said angrily: "Why don't you give you to me? ”

I saw Li Cheng glance at Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, and arched his hand and said: "As far as the last general knows, King Su and Prince Yu once went out of the city to meet the King of Southern Liang, and His Royal Highness King Su had already learned from the mouth of Prince Yu, so the last general did not intervene. ”

『……』

Wei Tianzi shook his head tiredly.

Want. Once his son Zhao Hongrun was enough for him to have a headache, and now, coupled with Wei Tianzi's cynical younger brother Zhao Yuanyan, the latter is a pure pleasure-hungry gentleman, the former is an example of the latter, and he set a goal when he was young to prepare to be a bastard boy of the prince, what good thing will happen when these two meet together?

In all fairness, Wei Tianzi really didn't want his son Zhao Hongrun to stay with Zhao Yuanyan. Lest you learn badly, but it's a pity. The relationship between Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Yuanyan is even deeper than the relationship with him, a father, not that Wei Tianzi forbids Zhao Hongrun to contact Zhao Yuanyan, and this kid will obediently obey.

"Forget it." Wei Tianzi waved his hand and said casually: "Next time, if something like this happens again, kick that bastard boy's ass hard...... More and more presumptuous! ”

"Yes!" Li Cheng smiled and nodded. But he didn't take it seriously at all in his heart, after all, he could hear that Wei Tianzi was just complaining casually.

From the side, Nanliang Zhao Yuanzuo listened quietly, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised and surprised.

The once gloomy brother of the four kings. How can he be so accustomed to his son?

"Su Wang ......"

Zhao Yuanzuo couldn't help but think of the nephew he had seen in the Shili Pavilion outside Daliang City not long ago, Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su.

It is no exaggeration to say that apart from the fact that this son is the son of the one in front of him, Zhao Yuanzuo has a good impression of Zhao Hongrun.

After all, Zhao Yuanzuo had asked Zhao Hongrun vaguely, "Do you know who I am?"

His original intention was to ask Zhao Hongrun if he knew that Zhao Yuanzuo was the opponent of his father who once fought for the throne, and he was a criminal minister who should have been spurned.

But Zhao Hongrun replied respectfully to him, "You are the third uncle."

In other words, Zhao Hongrun replied to him cryptically: I know your grievances with my father, but you are still my third uncle.

Because of this, Zhao Yuanzuo praised Zhao Hongrun for being "a respectful and polite young man", which made Zhao Yuanyan, Shen Yu, Mu Qing, Gao Kuo and others who knew Zhao Hongrun's temperament snickering in their hearts.

However, it seems that at the moment, the "respectful and courteous young man" does not seem to be "respectful and courteous" as Zhao Yuanzuo guessed.

"......" Zhao Yuanzuo's expression was a little strange.

I have to say that after being interrupted by Zhao Hongrun, the heavy atmosphere of Fang Cai has long disappeared without a trace, which made Wei Tianzi and Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, shift the topic to the incident in Longxi.

"The situation in Longxi...... Not optimistic. Therefore, I hope that the third brother will train a new army of 50,000 men by the end of the year and rush to Longxi ......"

"Brother obeys." Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, calmly hugged his fists, and immediately, he frowned and said, "However, an army of 50,000 people may not be willing to let Yin Rong go." ”

"I have a claim on this matter. …… I have sent someone to contact Yin Rong in the land of Sanchuan, and in the name of Qiu Hunt, I have invited the patriarch of Yin Rong to discuss with Cheng Gao. If it can be negotiated, it is good, but if it can't be negotiated......" Wei Tianzi did not say any more.

"Hmm." Zhao Yuanzuo nodded, and didn't ask too much, after all, his task was only to train an army to support Longxi, as for how to negotiate with Yin Rong, I believe Wei Tianzi had his own plans.

After Wei Tianzi finished stating the recent situation in Longxi, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, took his leave, after all, it was June now, and there were only six months left before the end of the year, and this June had to include screening the members of the new army. Therefore, it is imperative to seize all the time.

And after Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, left, the smile on Wei Tianzi's face slowly retracted.

He asked Li Cheng, the former head of the sect's guard, "Li Cheng, what do you think?" ”

"The last general...... It's hard to say. Looking at the direction in which Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, left, Li Cheng frowned and said with a hesitant expression: "King Jing." It's changed a lot. Perhaps, as he said, he would compromise for the sake of his wife and daughter...... The last general hopes so, but if not...... Then Your Majesty is raising tigers for trouble. ”

It can be seen that Li Cheng has some gains and losses, but in fact, it is not only he who hesitates, Wei Tianzi also has some plans.

Seventeen years is enough time to make a person a stranger.

In Wei Tianzi's view, Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang seventeen years later. and Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Jing seventeen years ago, are like two completely different people, so he can't find the slightest familiarity.

Is it just as Zhao Yuanzuo said, he has lived in the most difficult frontier wasteland of the Great Wei for seventeen years, and the persistence in his heart has long been exhausted, so that now he is just trying to give his wife and daughter a glory and wealth, and he is compromising to his former opponent?

Or rather, seventeen years of hardship. Far from exhausting the will of the three royal brothers, they exercised it. Let him transform into a terrifying person who far surpasses Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Jing back then.

This mood of suffering from gains and losses made Wei Tianzi particularly uneasy.

After all, as Li Cheng said, one bad thing about this matter is to raise tigers.

If Zhao Yuanzuo has realized that he is simply compromising for the sake of giving his wife and daughter superior living conditions, this is naturally excellent; But if this three royal brothers just buried that hatred deep in their hearts, trying to raise their glory and make a comeback. Then, if Wei Tianzi asked him to form an army of 50,000 people to go west to support the Wei clan surnamed Ji in Longxi, it is very likely that this third prince brother will train another 'Shunshui army'.

Now it is different from the past, and there is no "Yu Water Army" led by "King Yu" Zhao Yuantong. Able to stop Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, and his army.

Perhaps seeing the concerns in Wei Tianzi's heart, Li Cheng hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, General Rong Mo said something that should not be said." In fact, there is no need for His Majesty to recall King Jing and go west to Longxi, so why not take this opportunity to train His Royal Highness King Su? ”

Wei Tianzi shook his head, frowned and said, "Hongrun is more than strategic, but he is not tactful enough. …… Ji Wei of Longxi, what is their attitude towards my Ji Zhao family, I can guess it if I think about it a little. …… If Hongrun is sent there, if the other party doesn't like a few words, my son will definitely do something irreparable. Hongrun coerced Qu Cheng and others to surrender, you don't know it. ”

"This shows that King Su is the king." Li Cheng lowered his voice and complimented.

Wei Tianzi was stunned, and then laughed and said, "King? He's far from it! With that, he paused for a moment and continued: "In addition, there is also the reason why Hongrun must sit in the girder. …… The smelting bureau has finally improved, and I don't want to go back to the original form. Moreover, the Yanling Army and the Shangshui Army in the south, except for me, only obeyed Hongrun's dispatch, which was not tolerated by the military department. If I send Hongrun to Longxi, the military department will inevitably attack the Yanling army and the Shangshui army, which will inevitably cause turmoil......"

Speaking of this, Wei Tianzi smiled slightly and said, "The military department is very jealous of Hongrun. With Hongrun here, I am much more relaxed. ”

"Is His Royal Highness the King of Nasu a shield?"

Li Cheng secretly laughed and said in a low voice: "But the biggest reason is because His Majesty is reluctant to His Royal Highness King Su, right?" ”

Hearing this, Wei Tianzi's face showed a little loneliness, and he laughed at himself: "In the past, my two favorite sons, one is far away in the Qi Kingdom, and the other is still I want to keep it by my side......

Li Cheng knew this when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he whispered, "Then it's better to ...... In addition, a Royal Highness the Prince was appointed as the overseer. ”

Wei Tianzi touched his chin when he heard this, and guessed: "Hongyu and Hongjing, I'm afraid they won't be willing to leave Daliang at this time, and Hongjiang is in Shanyang County...... Do you mean Hongxin? ”

"Exactly!" Li Cheng nodded, and Zhengse said, "His Royal Highness King Qing Hongxin!" …… His Royal Highness Hongxin was in charge of the Ministry of War, and His Majesty asked His Royal Highness Hongxin to serve as the supervisor of the army and go to Longxi with King Jing, which was not abrupt. Moreover, the last general believes that His Royal Highness Hongxin must be happy to yearn for this. ”

"Hmm......" Wei Tianzi looked thoughtful. (To be continued.) )
