Since An Lushan opened the door of rebellion, Hebei has formed a convention, a practice of my territory and my decision. Our own governors, we have the final say, and they have nothing to do with Chang'an, especially Chengde. Even Li Chun, the so-called master of Zhongxing, Li Chun, could not prevent Wang Chengzong from succeeding in ascending to the throne. Thinking about the time when he was beaten to the ground, Tutu Chengguang felt that the Chengde soldiers felt enjoyable.

Now, Wang Chengzong is dead. Who will take his place, of course, is still up to us.

Still, the selection is a problem, and it is still a big one.

The death of the father and the succession of the son are justified. Wang Chengzong has sons, although there are not many, but there is more than one. It's a pity that they are all in Chang'an, and the distant water really can't quench the thirst of the near. It seems that they can't count on it.

Fortunately, in addition to his son, Wang Chengzong has other relatives. For example, Wang Chengyuan, Wang Chengzong's younger brother, the youngest brother.

In this way, a young man, a young man who had just turned twenty, was dragged to the foreground, the foreground of history.

In the eyes of the Chengde soldiers, Wang Chengyuan, this rich and noble boy with fine clothes and fine food, and this gentleman who has nothing to do, is the second Li Shidao. They can easily pinch him in their hands, just like pinching a piece of mud, if they want to be round, they can be square.

It's a pity that they underestimated Wang Chengyuan. Because, Wang Chengyuan is Wang Chengyuan, not Li Shidao's second, and he has nothing to do with Li Shidao. Two completely different melons can grow on one vine, not to mention, Wang Chengyuan and Li Shidao are melons on two vines at all?

They asked him to be the boss, but Wang Chengyuan refused. It's not hypocritical disagreement, but genuine unwillingness. Because, Wang Chengyuan knows very well what his brother's subordinates are. If you follow their wishes and become the boss of Chengde, it will be like a separation, which is tantamount to openly arguing with Chang'an. If they succeed, their glory and wealth are naturally indispensable; failed, but I was the only one who died, and if I changed my master, wouldn't they still eat and drink spicy? Li Shidao back then, wasn't he played to death by his subordinates like this?

Yes, back then, Li Shidao had such a group of subordinates. It was they who recommended Li Shidao to be the boss; It was also them who encouraged Li Shidao to fight to the death with Chang'an; In the end, it was they who cut off Li Shidao's elm head and asked Chang'an for merit and reward!

Li Shidao was very stupid and naïve, he was sold by his subordinates for a good price, but he was still in the dark. Wang Chengyuan is not Li Shidao, he is neither stupid nor naïve, he doesn't want to be Li Shidao's second, so he doesn't want to be the boss, especially the boss of Chengde.

One side is forced, the other side is dead, the two sides are frozen there, and the situation is a little awkward. In the midst of embarrassment, the situation is changing, quietly changing. Danger is quietly approaching the twenty-year-old boy.

A chill, a downright chill swept through the body. In an instant, Wang Chengyuan, who was struggling, paused. The chill comes from the threat, the naked threat. And the threat comes from the gaze, the cold and fierce gaze, not one, two, but countless paths. If you don't want to do it again, Wang Chengyuan believes that he will be torn to pieces by these fierce gods and evil, and then eaten alive, leaving no bones for you.

People are anxious and wise, and Wang Chengyuan, who is in danger, is not chaotic, and he thinks of a shield, the eunuch who supervises the army. Thanks to Li Longji, the prison army at that time were all eunuchs, and the eunuchs were from Chang'an, representing the will of the Son of Heaven. Chang'an, of course, doesn't want to be the boss of virtue, and the eunuch representing Chang'an will naturally not agree.

The eunuch is a strange animal, sometimes very bold and bold, and the emperor dares to kill it. Sometimes he is very timid, timid as a mouse, and speaks with a trill, which is not a trills in bel canto singing, but a natural expression of true psychology. At this time, the eunuch of the prison army obviously belonged to the latter situation.

In order to save his life, the eunuchs of the prison army stood on the side of the large number of people and agreed to Wang Chengyuan's ascension. Yes, the shield failed, not only failed, but also became a life talisman.

In desperation, Wang Chengyuan reluctantly sat on the chair that his brother had sat on, like sitting on pins and needles.

In the dead of night, Wang Chengyuan quietly changed to a houseservant.

On the post road from Chengde to Chang'an, a fast horse is galloping towards Chang'an.

Who would notice that Wang Chengyuan is missing a servant by his side?
