Chapter 70: The Second Prince

After sending off Father-in-law Ding, Li Jinyi and others had just returned to the mansion, and the teacher of the yamen came trembling and leisurely. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"My lord, a large group of soldiers have come and occupied our government."

"What? Touts...... You are confused, who is so bold and dares to make trouble with the government. ”

"It's true, don't believe it, go check it out......"

Li Jingang walked into the lobby, and sure enough, there was a group of soldiers in armor standing neatly on both sides.

In the lobby sat a young man in a fine costume.

Su Yuyang, who followed Li Jin in, glanced at the man in fancy clothes and was immediately startled.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Second Prince, but I didn't know that the Second Prince had arrived, and I didn't welcome him from afar, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

"Second prince?"

Li Jin was still confused about Su Yuyang's reaction.

"Bold, you still don't salute when you see His Royal Highness the Second Prince?"

A man in armor with a beard and a tiger-eyed man yelled at Li Jin.

At this time, Su Yuyang, who was kneeling on the side, pulled the corner of Li Jin's clothes at the right time.

"Oh, oh...... Meet His Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”

Li Jin only understood at this time, sitting in the hall of the second son of the emperor, His Royal Highness the second prince. It's just that he suddenly came to Yishui County for what he was doing.

"Alas....... Wu Rui, my father asked me to assist Master Li, and he should be the commander-in-chief, and I am a partial general, so I must not be rude. ”

"Yes."

The second prince said, walked down from his position, and personally helped Li Jin up.

"Lord Li, I was sent by my father to assist you in exterminating those bandits, this time I brought 50,000 elite soldiers, I hope we can cooperate and annihilate this group of pests of the Dayan Dynasty in one fell swoop."

The emperor sent a prince to assist me in a small county order? No matter how you look at it, I'll help you.

Li Jin slandered while pretending to agree.

"Since the second prince came with troops, it must be a soldier to get rid of the bandits, where is there any need to bother with the officials."

"Alas, this is a bad word, my father sent me to assist Lord Li, then I must obey Lord Li's dispatch."

"The second prince is serious, everything is for the Dayan Dynasty, and the lower officials must do their best to cooperate with the second prince."

"Hahaha...... Yes, everything is for the sake of the Dayan Dynasty, and I hope that I can cooperate happily with Master Lee. ”

Li Jin is not a fool, since he has walked into the officialdom, he still understands what to say when he sees someone.

After the second prince finished chatting with Li Jin, he glanced at Su Yuyang.

"This brother seems to know me, I don't know where the brother comes from?"

"Back to the words of the second prince, my father was Su Yixuan, the secretary of the household department, and I was fortunate to witness the true face of the second prince when I followed my father, so I recognized the second prince."

"Oh, it turned out to be the talented man of Su Shangshu's family, not bad. are all tiger fathers and no dogs, and with brothers and sisters cooperating with Master Li, those two must have a bright future. ”

The second prince lost no time in boasting about Su Yuyang, showing an approachable appearance.

"Lord Li, there are many disturbances today, please bear with me, I will take people to be stationed in the mine barracks outside the city, and I will be at the disposal of Lord Li at any time, I hope that Lord Li will come up with a plan to exterminate the bandits as soon as possible, so I will leave first."

After speaking, the second prince said to his subordinates to leave, and then left the palace with his people.

Li Jin and Su Yuyang watched the second prince leave the yamen, and their faces were not very good-looking.

"Su Er, who is this second prince?"

"His name is Huangfu Naqian, the emperor's second son, because he was born to a concubine, so he lost to the eldest prince born to the queen, Huangfu Nashun, when he was competing for the throne of the prince. This person is quite deep in the city, on the surface he is modest, cherishes his subordinates, but in fact he is insidious and vicious, he has been eyeing the position of the prince, he is the biggest enemy of the prince of the dynasty, because of his outstanding military achievements, and he is good friends with many ministers in the court, and he is deeply appreciated by the emperor, and he is the leader of the opposing party with the prince. ”

After listening to this, Li Jin nodded thoughtfully.

It turns out that this is the case, since ancient times, the descendants of the emperor's family have competed for the throne of the emperor, and I didn't expect that I might have to be involved in the whirlpool of imperial power this time, hey...... Why is it so difficult to be a carefree master?

"Su Er, then what do you say we should do this time, do you really want me to have a small county order to command the second prince of the dynasty to fight?"

"Boss, do you know who was the commander sent by the emperor to suppress the bandits last time?"

"This ...... I don't know. ”

"It's His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it's just that the last time the bandits were not smooth. It is rumored in the capital that the last time the second prince of the bandits was carelessly ambushed by Yunlongzhai and was captured, it was the Taishou Lord who took someone to ransom him back, and the reason why Yunlongzhai can survive to this day is because the second prince is cowardly and does not dare to fight against Yunlongzhai again, so he returned in a huff. There are also rumors that the second prince colluded with Yunlongzhai to share the stolen goods, and he didn't want to cut off this financial route, so he didn't exterminate Yunlongzhai. ”

"Which rumor is true?"

"No matter which one is true, it is not good for the second prince to compete for the throne. I estimate that the second prince himself asked the emperor to fight with the two bandits this time, just to make those two rumors self-defeating. And the reason why the emperor agreed, it is estimated that he also wanted to give the second prince a chance, the emperor did not want the prince faction with the support of the Qing Sect to grow infinitely, and wanted the second prince to contain the prince. ”

"If it's like what you say, this imperial struggle is really troublesome. Ah...... What the hell am I supposed to do? ”

"It's simple, do what you like. Since the second prince just wants to attack Yunlongzhai in person, then let's give him this opportunity and let him take full command of the attack on Yunlongzhai, and when you report to the emperor, you will praise his merits, so that the second prince will please the second prince and the emperor will also be satisfied. ”

"Yes, Su Er, you have a good brain, and you deserve to be our dog-headed military advisor."

Li Jin smiled and patted Su Yuyang's shoulder.

"Then I'll write a letter to the second prince now, and let him take full responsibility for this matter."

Li Jin wrote a battle plan and sent someone to Huangfu Naqian, who showed irrepressible joy on his face after reading it.

I thought to myself, this Li Jin is still quite good at being an official, not a dead brain.

Huangfu Naqian was happy, and immediately gave the messenger a heavy reward, and let him master Li Jin, the army was bumpy from a long distance, rested and rectified for two days, and three days later the whole army began to attack Yunlong Village, and let Li Jin come to fight together.

After Li Jin and Su Yiyang listened to the return of the letter, they also had doubts in their hearts, since they had given him the right to command, it would be good if he had full command himself, and he could toss as much as he liked, and the letter also made it clear that after the matter was completed, Li Jin would write down that it was his own proper command and that all the credit was given to him, is this not satisfied?

In fact, Su Yuyang's analysis is correct, but he doesn't understand Huangfu Naqian's character, Huangfu Naqian is an ambitious person, although he is ruthless, but he is very good at winning people's hearts.

The reason why he let Li Jin go with him was because he was grateful to him for giving him a chance to make meritorious contributions, and on the other hand, because he could also see that his father seemed to attach great importance to this Li Jin, and even sent his close confidant Ding Gonggong to come over to deliver the decree.

And these, Li Jin and Su Yuyang didn't expect that they would be unconsciously pulled into the battle for imperial power......
