In the afternoon, in the back garden of the Hainan Palace, Chen Chuwang lay on a soft chair, and Chen Zhong sat beside him.

The king of Hainan ordered all the guards and servants to go out, and in this beautiful back garden, only their father and son were left at the moment. Chen Chuwang wanted to talk to his son about some extremely secret things.

"Zhong'er, my father asks you, do you think you have achieved your goal in today's matter?" Chen Chuwang closed his eyes and said lightly.

"We've done it." Chen Zhong knew that his father saw all his thoughts clearly.

"Zhong'er, my father wants to ask you, there is such a good opportunity to get rid of Zhou Zhiguang today, why didn't you do it? Not only did you not take the opportunity to get rid of him, but you suppressed all the attacks on him by those who opposed him, and you still took the approach of protecting Zhou Zhiguang? After Chen Chuwang finished speaking, he half-opened his eyes and looked at Chen Zhong, and then closed his eyes and waited for Chen Zhong's answer.

"Father, in fact, you should see it, it's not that I don't know, this is the best chance to get rid of Zhou Zhiguang, but I didn't. I do this because I think longer. ”

"Oh, a more long-term idea, what an idea? Now that you know that today is a great opportunity to get rid of Zhou Zhiguang, and you also know that Zhou Zhiguang is ambitious and has always been eyeing the kingship of Hainan, and it is the biggest obstacle for you to finally control the kingship of Hainan, but you let him go in front of such a good opportunity, which makes me a little incomprehensible! ”

"Father, you see, if there is a male lion living in a very dangerous primeval mountain forest, it is the king of this mountain forest. And there is also a fierce tiger and a group of fierce wolves in this mountain forest.

The tiger has coveted this king of the mountains and forests for a long time, but the lion is too powerful. So, every day, it fantasized that when the lion was old, it would be able to replace him.

One day, there was finally a chance that the lion could get rid of the tiger. Then, this male lion thought, if he took this opportunity to get rid of the tiger, wouldn't he have no worries!

However, the lion thought again, if the tiger was really eliminated, on the surface, they would be safe, but those fierce wolves were still a huge threat to the lion.

If the lion does not kill the tiger at this time, but finds a way to save it, then because of the coexistence of wolves and tigers in the mountains and forests, they will be together to restrain each other, so that the lion can be safer.

Father, our Hainan is like this mountain forest, we are the lion, Zhou Zhiguang is like a fierce tiger, Li Chuang and Xiao Yang are like a group of tough wolves. We are safest only if they exist at the same time. ”

Chen Chuwang laughed happily after listening to his son's answer, he slowly opened his eyes, looking at his son's young and handsome face, showing maturity and wisdom, he was very satisfied, which was exactly what he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Chen Chuwang sat up and asked again: "Zhong'er, there is another detail today, that is, when you interrogated Yamamoto, why did you suppress him and prevent him from directly telling Zhou Zhiguang's crimes, and then, you seem to have forced Yamamoto Nishikawa to tell about the conspiracy with Zhou Zhiguang through the blow to Yamamoto's heart, why is this?" ”

"Father, actually, I can kill Zhou Zhiguang today, and I can kill Yamamoto Nishikawa very quickly.

Because, I have already ordered Yanxia to be ready for defense, and I have long been aware of Zhou Zhiguang's every move, and all their deployments are within my control.

However, I did not take the initiative to destroy them, but chose to conquer Zhou Zhiguang and them.

Father, you must know very well that for a ruler, killing is actually very simple, and conquest is the most clever means.

For Zhou Zhiguang, a fierce tiger, I don't want to destroy it directly, but I want to conquer it, it is the conquest of his mind and will. Let him be jealous of me, and have to be used by me!

As for the details of my persecution of Nishikawa Yamamoto and Keiji Matsui, I took measures to deter and induce them, and told Zhou Zhiguang and their conspiracy, the purpose of which was to arouse the indignation of others against Zhou Zhiguang, and at the same time, it could also play the role of knocking on the mountain and shocking the tiger, so as to shock him and make him understand that it is not that I don't know his ambitions, but that I don't say anything if I know it.

In this way, other forces will keep a distance from Zhou Zhiguang because of this, and Zhou Zhiguang will also be confused, so that he will clearly know that he has a tail in my hand.

Father, if I can subdue Zhou Zhiguang, a fierce tiger, for my use, I think that any other wolf pack in Hainan will not dare to act rashly. I will be able to use the balance of power between them to ensure the authority and security of our royal family. ”

After Chen Zhong finished speaking, he tidied up his father's gray hair, and then brought him a cup of tea.

Chen Chuwang coughed a few times, took a sip of water, and then lay back on the soft chair, closed his eyes, paused for a while and said:

"Zhong'er, in dealing with Zhou Zhiguang's matter, my father has seen your excellent political acumen, and you can completely control Hainan's internal affairs. At tonight's meeting above the military level, I will announce that you will inherit the title of King of Hainan, and hand over the military talisman of Hainan to you, are you ready? ”

"Father!" Chen Zhongzheng wanted to say wait and talk, but Chen Chuwang waved his hand and motioned for his son to stop talking.

Chen Chuwang continued: "Zhong'er, don't shirk it, this is not only a right, but also your unshirkable responsibility!" Because you are the son of my king of Hainan, from the day you were born, you are destined to shoulder the mission, the mission of being a king!

We control the royal power of Hainan, and we also shoulder the responsibility and mission of defending Hainan and prospering Hainan, you have no choice!

Zhong'er, my father has been feeling more and more that his body is not good recently, and many things are beyond his strength. Now, my father can see you mature and strong with his own eyes, he is very happy, and he is more relieved to hand over Hainan to you, you can do it bravely! Father believes that you will live up to your mission! ”

Chen Chuwang clenched his son's hand, his eyes flashing with the light of infinite anticipation for the future.

"Zhong'er, there is one more thing, my father wants to ask you, this encirclement and suppression of the Far East Post Station will inevitably provoke international disputes, and the Japanese will not give up, have you considered it, if Japan sends troops to Hainan, how will you respond?

At present, the war with the Qing army in Guangxi has not been completely resolved, and the French ** team stationed in Vietnam in the west is looking for an opportunity to take revenge on our Hainan, and our Hainan is in the focus of the war, and it may be surrounded and suppressed by these forces at any time, and our current situation in Hainan should be said to be extremely dangerous! ”
