The king of the East China Sea came early in the morning, ordered the servant to serve him porridge, and sat opposite Han Ruzi to eat breakfast together, as if he had stayed here last night.

"When does it start?" Putting down the empty bowl, the East Sea King asked.

"Huh?"

"It's a fight for the throne." The King of the East Sea waved his servant away.

Han Ruzi didn't want to talk in the hall, got up and went out of the house to the study, the king of the East China Sea followed him, and said: "It's really unfair, you and my loved ones are under house arrest in the palace, but the champion Hou only handed over one son, it was born to the Tan family, the champion Hou doesn't care at all, it's not fair, should we bring it up?" ”

"To whom?"

"Queen Mother, there are still hopefuls."

"There's a hopeful one by your side."

"Lin Kunshan? He'll giggle and think he's got everything in his mind, only to prove that it's just a giggle. Looking at him every day, I can be a hopeful. Well...... Hehe......" The king of the East China Sea imitated Lin Kunshan's laughter, which was quite similar.

Han Ruzi laughed a few times.

The study was cleaned up, Han Ruzi sat on a chair, picked up a book, flipped through it casually, and the king of the East China Sea looked east and west, "This is your Chinese military account?" ”

"The Chinese military tent?"

"That's right, strategizing, making plans, and arranging troops...... It's all going on here. The King of the East Sea said excitedly.

"You're thinking too much, this is a study." Han Ruzi lowered his head and read the book.

The King of the East Sea walked over in a few steps, pressing his hands on the desk, "Why aren't you in a hurry?" ”

"Fight for the throne? There is still half a year to go, what is there to hurry? ”

"No, no, if we really fight for the throne according to the rules of the hopeful, we will definitely lose - you will definitely lose, you have to do it in advance, you can't sit back and wait for the champion Hou to win over all the ministers of the court and the central government. What are your plans? ”

"My plan...... I sent people to the Pingenhou Mansion every day......"

"That's useless." The King of the East China Sea eagerly interrupted Han Ruzi, "The person you sent is that palace maid, I remember her, she was so ruthless, she actually went out of the palace with you." The King of the East Sea thought for a while and continued: "It's just a group of female dependents, what can they talk about?" We still have to have our own plans. ”

"I thought the general Han Xing already had a plan."

The King of the East China Sea was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "My brother, what plan can Han Xing have?" He dared to lend you the official seal, which was already bold, and in this way, he would definitely have to send someone to explain and show his loyalty to the champion Hou in private. ”

"In that case, why should he help me?"

"Bet on both sides, but we can make full use of this to make a surprise attack, get rid of the champion Hou and the king, abolish the queen mother, order the ministers, and kill those who do not follow."

"Surprise attack...... How to attack suddenly? We have no soldiers and no power. ”

"Hehe, are you fooling me? Let's talk about your own plan first, did you and Yang Feng go to meet Guo Cong two days ago? ”

"yes." It was a public visit, and neither side deliberately concealed it.

"What was the result?"

"Nothing came of it, and I took my leave after talking for a while."

"Guo Cong didn't leave you to eat, did he?"

"No, just a few cups of tea."

"It just didn't work out." The King of the East China Sea dragged over a chair, "This must be Yang Feng's idea, thinking that he can change the minister's opinion through a group of scholars, this is completely whimsical, scholars are used to sing praises and maintain the stability of the imperial court, and if you want to win the world, you can only use martial arts." ”

The East Sea King clenched his fists and smashed it on the table.

"What we lack is martial arts. The entire capital is under the control of the Eighth Battalion of the Suwei Guard, and the troops of the great general Han Xing are scattered, and the southern and northern armies do not dare to step into Gyeonggi for half a step, and they are all far away and do not quench their thirst......"

"That's why I came to ask you what your plan is, you can't wait for a miracle to happen."

Han Ruzi smiled: "Why did you suddenly become so anxious? ”

"I've always been so anxious." The King of the East Sea sighed heavily, "I don't think you believe me, that's why I'm in a hurry, if our alliance is just an empty word, then what's the point?" ”

Han Ruzi looked at the East China Sea King quietly.

The King of the East Sea stood up and said sincerely, "After so many things, do you think I will still fight with you for the throne?" You're better than me in every way. The King of the East China Sea sighed again, "To be honest, I'm not convinced, but I can't help but accept the reality, we are brothers after all, you are the emperor and the champion Hou is the emperor, the difference between me is too big." ”

"Okay, Yang Feng and I do have a plan, but I want to hear your plan first."

The King of the East Sea sat down slowly, stood up suddenly, walked to the door quickly, opened the door and looked at it twice, then came back and sat down again, "The Tan family has a lot of connections. ”

"Well, I've heard of it."

"Many people owe the Tan family favors, and are even willing to pay it back with their lives, if you want me to say, this is a group of fools, but this is a very useful group of fools."

"You mean the Jianghu?" Han Ruzi frowned slightly, almost all the bodyguards around him were from the rivers and lakes, but that's all, he would never rely on the people from the rivers and lakes to seize the throne.

"Not only the people of the rivers and lakes, but also the ministers of the court, the soldiers in the army, the officials of various ministries and departments, and especially—" The king of the East China Sea paused in a mysterious way, "The officials of the criminal department and the Dali Temple. ”

Han Ruzi's heart moved, "You mean 'Guanghua Tigers'?" ”

Guanghua Pavilion is the place where the Queen Mother meets regularly with a group of torturers, these torturers have made a lot of contributions in the pursuit of Qi Wang's henchmen, and the highest status has more than ten people, known as the "Guanghua Tigers", there are many minions, and the shots are ruthless, and the people who are arrested will be convicted, and once reached the point where everyone heard of the color change.

The king of the East China Sea nodded, "The Tan family is heroic, and loves to save people the most, which is similar to the Marquis of Junyang back then, but the means are different, Marquis Junyang enters the palace to beg the emperor as soon as he encounters something. The Tan family behaves in a low-key manner, often saying to the people who come to the door, 'Breaking the law is breaking the law, and the Tan family can't save it', but the Tan family will find legal officials and prison guards, and tell them to be kind to the prisoners, don't let the prisoners suffer too much, and after the interrogation, the guilty are guilty, and the innocent can get away with their whole body. ”

Han Ruzi nodded, "The Tan family is really good at being a person. ”

"Yes, over the years, the Tan family has saved many people, without them, many innocent people would have to die in prison before the truth is revealed, and if they don't die, they have to be skinned. In short, the Tan family has saved a lot of favors, and has always maintained a good relationship with various legal departments, especially those ordinary officials. You know, Shangshu is always changing, this year in the Criminal Department, next year may be changed to the Ministry of Officials, but the Criminal Officers are rarely replaced, can only be in the Criminal Department, Dali Temple level up. ”

"I understand what you mean, in short, the Tan family has a close relationship with the 'Guanghua Tigers', and they can go directly to the Queen Mother?"

"No, the 'Guanghua Tigers' are all little mice in front of the Queen Mother, except for accepting orders, they don't dare to say more than a superfluous word, and they have rarely seen the Queen Mother recently, after the Guanghua Pavilion discussion, the record will be handed over to the eunuch, and the eunuch will be transferred to the Queen Mother."

"The Queen Mother will approve it?"

The East Sea King nodded.

Han Ruzi was finally interested, "All the concerts in the Qinzheng Palace in the past two months have not been released, but the 'Guanghua Tigers' can get the approval of the Queen Mother?" ”

"It's not all, it's occasional, so everyone says that the Queen Mother's madness is sometimes good and bad, and she only approves it, not stamps."

"Then talk about your plans."

Han Ruzi showed interest, and the King of the East China Sea became even more excited, and lowered his voice unnecessarily, "The people of the 'Guanghua Tigers' are very nervous now, the champion Hou is winning over the ministers, and it has nothing to do with them, and when they captured the Qi Wang's henchmen, they offended many ministers, so they are worried that after the champion Hou ascends the throne, they will be stabbed." ”

Han Ruzi could understand the fears of these people, "What are they going to do?" ”

"They don't have a clear plan yet, but I have a plan: the people who want to be angry are all waiting for the guilty, the government just doesn't grasp it that tightly, the imperial court has not issued an amnesty, and the 'Guanghua Tigers' are now frightened and dare not make a move, as long as they give them a little promise-"

"Can they arrest all the hopefuls?"

"Not only that, but Champion Hou, King Ying, and Shangguan Sheng have a close relationship with the Qi Seeker, and they can all be arrested, even-" The King of the East China Sea made a random move.

"Can you convince the 'Guanghua Tigers'?"

"Tan Jianeng, that's why my mother asked me to marry the Tan family, she didn't fancy the Tan family, but the 'Guanghua Tigers'!" When the king of the East China Sea talked about his mother, his face was full of admiration, "Of course, things are not that simple, you have to talk about and test the 'Guanghua Tigers' one by one, but I think the probability of success is very high, the key is that you have to participate, and the future emperor makes a promise, so that these torturers dare to confront the champion Hou and the ministers." ”

Han Ruzi thought for a while, leaned on the bookcase, and also lowered his voice and said, "I have already written a letter to Chai Yue and asked him to put all the Xungui children back." ”

The King of the East Sea frowned and said, "What's the use of this? The Xungui family will not support you because of this, and those guys will return to Beijing to pick them up, maybe your enemies will ...... We have more enemies. ”

Because of the indiscriminate command of the King of the East China Sea, more than a hundred noble sons died outside the Broken Iron City, and he knew that his enemies were indispensable.

"Chai Yue will not only release the sons of Xungui, but also some of my soldiers, who were originally fishermen in southern Beijing, take off their armor and return to Beijing in batches, which is enough to deceive the southern army."

The King of the East China Sea smiled, "So, your contact with Guo Cong is actually a trick?" ”

Han Ruzi nodded, "There will probably be three or four hundred people sneaking back to the capital, there are not many of them, but they are willing to go to the soup for me, although Shangguan Sheng is a Zhonglang general, there may not be many soldiers in the eighth camp of the guards who are willing to work for him." ”

The King of the East China Sea patted lightly on the table, "The plans of the two of us can be completely combined, the 'Guanghua Tigers' plus your hundreds of dead soldiers, as long as the plan is right, it is enough to control the capital." ”

"But we also need the support of the clan, if the general and others can declare their allegiance as soon as we succeed, everything will be worry-free."

The King of the East China Sea nodded frequently, got up and said: "This is called joining forces, I will come to you every day in the future, let's make a more detailed plan, at least one month, at most three months, and you will be the emperor again before the summer!" ”

Han Ruzi smiled and said nothing.

"When I go to talk to the Tan family, I have to get their full support." The King of the East Sea ran away in a hurry.

Han Ruzi continued to read, and after Yang Feng came back in the afternoon, Han Ruzi mentioned the visit of the King of the East China Sea, but did not elaborate on the "plan" of the two.

"The King of the East Sea is not credible." Yang Feng only made a judgment.

In the evening, Meng E came back, she still lived in the same room with Han Ruzi as a maid, the two had long been used to it, she told her about visiting Mrs. Pingenhou during the day, nothing serious, but she met a few noble ladies again.

"Have you ever talked about the newlywed wife of the King of the East Sea?"

Meng E thought for a while, "When I talked about it, everyone said that this daughter of the Tan family was a powerful person, worthy of a man at home. ”

Han Ruzi finally understood who was "spurring" the King of the East China Sea behind his back.

There are several plans in front of him, Han Ruzi can slowly make a choice, and the most difficult thing for him is to find out what the hidden "selfishness" of the East China Sea King, the Tan family, Han Xing, Guo Cong and Yang Feng is.
