Wu Guo, Yingdu.

Above the court.

In the past few days, Emperor Wu's mood has not been very good.

He has an older brother, who doesn't have much of a career, and he doesn't seem to have any hobbies other than his love for women.

However, he did not get bored with him because of this, but respected and took care of this brother more, because if it weren't for his special hobby, how could he be elected emperor of Wu as a non-eldest son?

The most important thing is that my brother didn't have this hobby at the beginning, but when he was choosing the prince, he suddenly became like this, so that the old emperor was furious at that time, and directly canceled his qualification as a prince, and instead set up his own eldest son!

Although he didn't ask in person, Emperor Wu always felt that his brother deliberately gave up the position of the prince to him, so he was grateful to his brother, and he basically responded to his brother's requests.

Although some of his brother's bad tastes and hobbies even he didn't feel like he could see, because of the gratitude in his heart, he never said anything, and he would help him unconditionally complete it.

For example, this time he strongly asked to go to Yueguo, and he agreed.

In his opinion, the combat power of Yue Guo is not worth mentioning compared with Wu Guo, just go, there will be no danger.

At that time, in order to protect the safety of King Wu, Emperor Wu asked General Wu to lead the team and go with hundreds of elite cavalry of Wu State, which could deter Yue Guo and make Yue Guo dare not act rashly, and on the other hand, it could protect the safety of King Wu in an all-round way.

But who would have thought that such a thing would happen?

Looking at General Wu kneeling under the stage, Emperor Wu asked coldly, "General Wu, do you guarantee that what you said is true?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the last general will guarantee that his words are true!"

General Wu kowtowed to Emperor Wu and said in a somewhat desolate voice.

When Emperor Wu heard this, he fell into deep thought again, and then said as if muttering to himself and asking a question.

"However, didn't I hear three months ago that Datang's Zhang County Botoujiang committed suicide? General Wu said that Zhang Twelve and the Tang Dynasty Zhang County Boke were the same person? ”

Three months ago, news came from the spies of the Tang Dynasty that Zhang Twelve committed a lot of crimes because of the murder of King Kang, and finally committed suicide by throwing himself into the river.

Therefore, Wu Guo did not act rashly, but observed every move of the Tang Dynasty in secret.

According to their later observations, Zhang Twelve seemed to be really gone.

Because both the Zhang family and those who have a relationship with Zhang Twelve have been punished and excluded by the new emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if Zhang Twelve is not dead, how could he do this?

As a result, two voices also appeared in the court of Wu State.

One is that Zhang Twelve is gone, Datang has no threat to Wu Guo, and Wu Guo has no fear, so it is the wisest choice to take the opportunity to attack Datang!

You must know that Wu was invincible at the beginning and had defeated Datang several times on the border, but it was only later that Zhang Twelve's "Xiao Li Flying Knife" was born, which made Wu Guo very jealous, so he let go of the idea of attacking Datang.

Now that Zhang Twelve is dead, those who supported the attack on the Tang Dynasty in the first place naturally jumped out, hoping that Wu Guo can seize this opportunity!

Of course, the representative of this wave of people is Wu Yingquan, the second prince of Wu State.

Some are in favor, and naturally some are against.

A group of ministers represented by Wu Yingqiu, the third prince of Wu State, strongly opposed the attack on Datang, because they felt that even if Zhang Twelve died, his "Xiao Li Flying Knife" stunt must have been left to Datang, otherwise how could Datang send someone to kill him?

As long as the "Xiao Li Flying Knife" is there, Wu Guo will not be sure to take Datang, and a rash attack will give Datang a chance, so they oppose attacking Datang.

Because the opinions of the two groups of people are contradictory, no one can convince anyone, so the matter of whether to attack Datang or not is put to this day.

And after listening to General Wu talk about what happened to Yue Guo, the second prince Wu Yingqiu felt that the opportunity had come!

So he admonished: "Father, the emperor's uncle was brutally killed by Zhang Twelve, and more than 300 elite cavalry were also lost in his hands, how can this be endured?"

If the father and emperor still ignore this matter, not only will the people of Wu State be cold to their father, but even the Tang Dynasty will be disdainful of Wu State!

Father, for the sake of the emperor's uncle, for the sake of the heroic spirits of the three hundred elite cavalry, give the order! ”

"Attack Datang, attack Datang !!"

As soon as Wu Yingquan's words fell, the ministers behind him shouted, and the shouts echoed in the court hall, and the sound was endless.

"Your Majesty, by all means!"

At this time, Wu Yingqiu also stood up.

Glancing at General Wu, who was still kneeling on the ground, Wu Yingqiu said slowly: "Father, the son thinks that there must be something strange about this matter!"

General Wu led more than 300 elite cavalry to escort Uncle Huang to Yueguo, but in the end, only General Wu came back, and said that everyone else was killed by Zhang Twelve, not to mention that Zhang Twelve had committed suicide by throwing himself into the river three months ago!

Even if it was really Zhang Twelve, then why did he only release General Wu back?

Then I want to ask General Wu, is that Zhang Twelve stupid? He knew that you would go back to Wu to report the news, which would be bad for him, so why didn't he kill you? Instead, let you run back? ”

Although Wu Yingqiu did not say it explicitly, the meaning of those words all revealed his suspicion of General Wu.

The country is far away, who can say exactly how many things happened along the way, and why did he say what was what?

He said that he let a person who "committed suicide by throwing himself into the river" be killed, who knows if he gave it to him.........

So, the ministers in the audience chattered and whispered, and then looked at General Wu's eyes.

General Wu originally knocked his head on the ground, but after hearing this, he straightened up directly with excitement.

"Your Majesty, you have been wronged! If the last general's words are not true, please ask Your Majesty to behead the last general! ”

General Wu's hoarse voice was so loud that people couldn't help but be moved, and even Wu Yingqiu was a little shaken: Could it be that he guessed wrong?

………………

"Your Majesty!"

Just when the atmosphere in the court was at a stalemate, a guard suddenly ran in.

"Why is there such a hurry? Didn't you see me in the early dynasty? ”

Emperor Wu's tone was cold, and he had a sense of blame.

He was already in a bad mood, but the guard was so unruly that he hit the muzzle of his gun, intending to talk about him.

But the guard didn't think much about Emperor Wu's words, but said in a panic: "Your Majesty, the prince is back!" ”

"What do you say? Brother Huang is back? ”

Emperor Wu was overjoyed, stood up directly, and then stared at the door of the palace with all his might, but after looking for a while, he did not find the figure of King Wu, which made him very disappointed.

"What about the Imperial Brother?"

"Back to Your Majesty! The prince rode back alone, and there were wounds on his body that were not treated in time, so he lost a lot of blood, and when he arrived at the palace, the prince was already in a coma! Now I've been sent to the hospital! I guess it's almost over! ”

After listening to what the guard said, Emperor Wu waved his hand and motioned for him to retreat first.

Then he stared at General Wu coldly, and said coldly: "General Wu, this is what you said, the imperial brother was also killed by Zhang Twelve?" Fortunately, I listened to Yingqiu's words, if I listen to your slander, it will be stupid!

Didn't you just say that sins should be cut down all over the house? Hehe, then I will fulfill you, come on, drag it out and cut it off! ”

"Your Majesty, you have been wronged!"

General Wu shouted loudly and was dragged out, and Wu Huanquan, the second prince who was standing on his side just now, didn't dare to come forward to help.

Are you kidding?

Now that he is not protected, how can he have the kung fu to help him speak?

Thinking about it, his eyes also glanced at Wu Yingqiu viciously: Count yourself lucky this time!

After General Wu was dragged down, Emperor Wu glanced angrily at the ministers who supported General Wu just now and intended to go to war, and said coldly: "You Aiqing have also followed me for many years, how can you still listen to other people's words so much? ”

Then he glanced at Wu Yingqiu with satisfaction and said, "Everyone should also learn more from Yingqiu!" Don't listen to rumors at will, everything should have your own considerations! ”

"Your Majesty is wise! The Three Highnesses are wise! The ministers are mediocre and incompetent, and I hope Your Majesty will blame! ”

As soon as Emperor Wu's words fell, the ministers just now immediately opened their mouths to plead guilty, of course, they also knew that Emperor Wu had already killed a general Wu to make an example of chickens and monkeys, and they would never do anything to them again.

All this is just a formality to make everyone's face look better!

Sure enough, Emperor Wu waved his hand at everyone and said, "That's it, everyone is just worried about the imperial brother!" However, as a prince, there are some things that you can't just say in the future! ”

"The father's lesson is timely! Erchen will have to ask the third brother for advice in the future! ”

As he spoke, Wu Huanquan lowered his head, but his teeth clenched tightly.

Seeing this, Emperor Wu nodded with satisfaction.

And the ministers in the audience glanced at each other, some people were happy and some were worried, what Emperor Wu did just now was too obvious, praising one and stepping on the other, isn't this just building momentum for Wu Yingqiu?

It seems that this battle for the prince may have already been decided, and is it still necessary for them to continue to support Wu Yingquan? Isn't it time to re-examine the situation, don't be dissatisfied with them after Wu Yingqiu really inherits the throne, it will be bad............

………………

The morning court lasted for another half hour or so, and at this time, the guard just now ran in again.

"Your Majesty, the prince is awake!"

"Good! Then take the imperial brother over, I want to hear what happened on this trip to Yue Guo? Who dares to do this to the royal brother! And General Wu, if he really harmed the emperor's brother, I will not only behead him all over the house, but also kill him in the nine clans! ”

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty shuddered.

There are even those who are related to General Wu, and when they heard Emperor Wu say the words of "Zhuhe Nine Clans", their legs and feet were weak, and they knelt down directly!

Nine Clans!

I'm afraid that as long as you have something to do with General Wu, you can be counted within the nine clans!

It's over!

Emperor Wu doesn't care what those people think, anyway, he made up his mind, his throne was given to him by King Wu, and it is understandable to do something for him, if it is really General Wu who harms him, he must be of the nine clans!

And he was still thinking, General Wu had no grievances or enmity with King Wu, why did he harm him? Someone must have instructed him, but who instructed him? Who will benefit the most from harming him?

Thinking of this, he glanced at Wu Yingquan, if it wasn't for Wu Yingqiu to stop him just now, if it wasn't for the sudden return of King Wu to the palace, I'm afraid that he also believed General Wu's words and was ready to start a war against the Tang Dynasty, right?

Whoever wants to start a war against the Tang Dynasty is clear at a glance, and it is obvious who instructed him!

Feeling Emperor Wu's cold gaze, Wu Huanquan couldn't help but shudder, and had some bad premonitions in his heart, so he quickly lowered his head again......

At this time, several subordinates carried a sedan chair and sent King Wu over.

The reason why the sedan chair was carried was because King Wu had lost too much blood, and even if he woke up, his face was pale and weak, and he couldn't support his body with a few breaths, so he could only carry it over.

I haven't seen him for less than half a month, and the prince of Wu has lost weight like this, and Emperor Wu was shocked and pitiful when he saw it, and hurriedly walked down.

"Brother Huang, you have suffered!"

Emperor Wu took the hand of King Wu and said sincerely.

Looking at the face of King Wu, his sin is not light!

At the same time, Emperor Wu's heart was even more ruthless!

Whoever it is, this time there will be a price!

When King Wu heard the familiar shout, he opened his bloodshot eyes, and when he saw that the person in front of him was his imperial brother and the imperial brother of Wu Guo, he couldn't hold it back anymore and cried directly.

"Your Majesty, you want to avenge the imperial brother!"

A man over half a hundred years old cried unscrupulously, which is really moving.

Emperor Wu held his hand, pity and anger, and asked, "Brother Huang, did General Wu harm you?" Say to me, and I will do justice to you!

Also, that Wu General I have already ordered to be beheaded, if it is really what he did, I will immediately order him to kill the nine clans! ”

"General Wu...... Chopped? Zhu He ...... Nine Clans? ”

King Wu chewed these words several times in his mouth, as if he had thought of something, and exclaimed loudly: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable!" ”

"Why?"

"Because Brother Huang's injury has nothing to do with General Wu! And General Wu repeatedly persuaded me at the beginning! If it weren't for the stubbornness of the royal brother, it wouldn't be where it is today!

Therefore, General Wu can't be killed! ”

Although King Wu is arrogant, he is not unreasonable.

Besides, General Wu did persuade him several times at that time, but he refused, and threatened to remove him, at this time, he couldn't be wronged!

"This ........."

Emperor Wu was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shouted to the guard, "Where is General Wu?" Send it back! ”

"Back... Back to Your Majesty...... General Wu he ...... He...... He's been beheaded! ”

The guard spoke in a trembling voice.

(I wanted to do two more last night, but I fell asleep while writing, I'm really sorry, I'm a little busy this morning, and I took advantage of the noon break to finish writing quickly...... ）
