"And what about the two?" Lin Shuhan asked after hearing Zheng Nuo pause.

"Second, when the imperial court originally chose Zheng Nuo to study in Beijing, it was nominally to cultivate an heir for the Lingnan Palace, and the succession of the vassal king was to be confirmed by the imperial court. Thirdly, Zheng Nuo and I have some contact, and their talents and knowledge are above Zheng Yu. Therefore, it is reasonable to choose the best and the longest, and the eldest son Zheng Nuo should succeed him. ”

"Then the second prince Zheng Yu wants to replace him, what can he do?" Lin Shuhan asked again.

As His Royal Highness the Third Emperor Zheng Miao, of course, this kind of question was something he couldn't answer, and he still didn't say it for a long time with a calm face.

Lin Shuhan looked at Zheng Miao's embarrassed expression, and then smiled again: "Your Highness's identity is different, although you know it, you haven't said it. I wonder if Lord Qiu is willing to teach me? ”

Qiu Yizhi glanced at Lin Shuhan and thought: "Although the emperor has more than once revealed the idea of abolishing the elder and establishing the third brother Zheng Miao as the crown prince; However, now that the emperor is not in the right position, he pays more attention to Taoism, and may not be willing to make this determination. Therefore, if you talk nonsense here, it is really a disadvantage and not beneficial. ”

So Qiu Yizhi pursed his lips and smiled bitterly, and shook his head silently.

But Lin Shuhan laughed and said: "Both of them are nobles, so naturally they can't talk nonsense." It seems that only I, a penniless cold maniac, can speak freely. It's just that this is just talking about it at a small level, and it is a big crime of rebellion at a big point. Please also ask the two characters with hands and eyes to the sky, don't report the cold life, okay? ”

Zheng Miao and Qiu Yizhi glanced at each other, then turned their heads to look at Lin Shuhan at the same time, and nodded vigorously.

Lin Shuhan smiled again and turned his words to the point: "If the second prince Zheng Yu wants to succeed to the throne, he must meet two conditions at the same time. The first is to ask the court to abandon his son Zheng Nuo, and instead support him to inherit the title of King of Lingnan. ”

"Is this second condition...... Lin Shuhan said this, he deliberately paused, and saw Zheng Miao and Qiu Yizhi continue to look at him with wide eyes, and then continued, "This second condition is to continue to exist in the Lingnan Palace." ”

Qiu Yizhi and Zheng Miao were stunned when they heard this, and thought: Isn't this nonsense, what Zheng Yu wants to inherit is the throne of the King of Lingnan, if the Lingnan Palace is gone, what will he inherit?

But after thinking about it, now the imperial court is plotting to withdraw the domain, although the victory or defeat is between the two, but with a corner of the country, no matter how the Lingnan palace is, it is a disadvantage, maybe the withdrawal of the domain after the year is confirmed, Zheng Yu really has no throne to inherit.

Realizing this, Qiu Yizhi and Zheng Miao have suddenly realized: if Zheng Gui, the king of Lingnan, is "invited" to Luoyang, the capital, then the prince Zheng Nuo is thousands of miles away, and there is no second person who can lead the Lingnan palace except him - in this case, as long as he agrees to submit to the imperial court, or gradually implement the measures to withdraw the feudal domain, and then say good things in front of the three highnesses, the imperial court will most likely let him inherit the throne of the king of Lingnan.

But I heard Lin Shuhan really say: "If you want to meet these two conditions, just relying on a Zheng Yu who is not ambitious and more sparse is tantamount to ascending to the sky, but in the hands of the two people, it is not out of reach, I wonder if the two of them are interested in helping him?" ”

Having said that, Lin Shuhan's plan has been fully revealed, that is-

As long as Zheng Miao made up his mind, he first sent Wei Chi Jiming to infiltrate the private residence of Zheng Gui, the king of Lingnan, waiting for an opportunity to restrain him, and then sent a secret message to call the two hundred elite soldiers in the city, who would pour out of the nest to control the situation, in exchange for the time and opportunity to negotiate with the second prince Zheng Yu, and persuade Zheng Yu to temporarily stabilize the Lingnan Palace, and then he could escort Zheng Gui, the king of Lingnan, back to the capital. As long as he leaves Lingnan Road safely, then whether the king of Lingnan will kill or kill depends on the emperor's will, and most of the plan to withdraw the feudal domain has been successful. And Zheng Yu, who sits in Lingnan Dao, is far inferior to his father in terms of popularity and talent, and it is reluctant to suppress these old ministers and generals, so how can he fight against the imperial court? At this time, the imperial court exerts some more pressure, and Lingnan Dao can be self-defeating.

Zheng Miao thought about it before and after: Lin Shuhan's strategy is dangerous, but as long as it is implemented carefully, there may not be no chance of success. But the risk here is still very big, as long as one move is not careful, it will give the king of Lingnan the excuse to rebel, and the dignified emperor's son is captured by the enemy, and the face of the court and the royal family will be lost.

Lin Shuhan is a strategist, it is his duty to know everything and say everything, but Zheng Miao is the person who has to make decisions and be responsible, for such a risky action, he can't help but be cautious and cautious.

In this way, Zheng Miao put the cooked meat in his hand on the charcoal fire and roasted it over and over again, until the meat was roasted and smelly, and finally raised his head and said, "This matter is too big, I can't concentrate on myself." Besides, as long as I wait to go back safely and report the truth of Lingnan Road to my father, it will already be a great achievement. ”

Qiu Yizhi knew that his third brother wanted to be cautious and cautious, and he would definitely not take risks if he was not sure of more than seventy percent success, let alone a major event like this that would affect the whole body.

So Qiu Yizhi no longer persuaded him, and said with a smile: "No wonder the third brother, such a big event, even a bold person like the younger brother does not dare to decide easily." However, I have already sent Yu Chi Jiming to the side of the Lingnan Wang's private residence to find out the news, it doesn't matter, right? ”

Zheng Miao was taken aback when she heard this, for fear that the little girl sent out by Qiu Yizhi would show her feet and be caught by the people of the Lingnan Palace, but she thought that Wei Chi Jiming's light skills were still above her father, and I was afraid that no one in the world would be able to find out her whereabouts......

Zheng Miao was about to speak, but saw the tent curtain shake, and a small figure flashed in from behind the curtain, and looked fixedly, it was Yu Chi Jiming who had just mentioned.

Qiu Yizhi saw that Yu Chi Jiming came in in a panic, so he joked: "What's wrong with Ji Ming, it's not uncommon to talk about entering and leaving the palace on weekdays, why did you run to a vassal king to listen to the news, and you were panicked like this?" ”

Yu Chi Jiming didn't seem to hear what Qiu Yizhi said, standing beside the charcoal basin like a wooden chicken, and the sweat left on both sides of his cheeks had actually gathered into two streams.

Qiu Yi's general, Chi Jiming, was so depressed, she thought that she must have heard some terrible news, so she hurriedly raised her voice: "Ji Ming, what's wrong with you?" If there's anything, tell us quickly, don't scare your little uncle. ”

Yu Chi Jiming turned his head and looked at Qiu Yizhi with unrelenting eyes, and said faintly: "I saw it, the woman in black on the boat that day was in the house of King Lingnan. ”

"Which day? Which boat? Which woman? Qiu Yizhi's eyes widened like two large copper coins, and he asked three questions in a row.

Yu Chi Jiming's answer seemed to come out of the abyss: "That day at the Yanziji Wharf, on the boat of the Tianzun Sect Master, the old aunt and grandmother of my Wei Chi family." It's her, it's her in the Lingnan Palace. ”

"What!" Qiu Yizhi almost lost her voice and exclaimed, "Didn't she sink to the bottom of the Yangtze River with that boat that day?" Didn't we pick him up later, as well as the corpse of Tianzun Sect Leader Wen Honghui? How did she come back from the dead? ”

But I heard Wei Chi Jiming sigh: "This aunt's martial arts are unfathomable, why did the two people of 'Iron Head Jiao' and 'Yangtze Crocodile' take her life?" The situation was chaotic that day, and he grabbed a woman of similar stature, changed his clothes, and drowned in the river for himself...... With this old aunt's ability, it's actually not a difficult thing......"

"Slow...... Slow...... Slow ......" Qiu Yizhi interrupted Yu Chi Jiming's speculation, "Since this woman is alive, then the Tianzun Sect Master may not really be dead?" ”

I heard Wei Chi Jiming say again: "Oh, there is also a man in the house, looking at his figure and demeanor, it seems that he is the Tianzun Sect Master in the boat that day." When I saw the old aunt and grandmother, I was afraid that she would find out her identity, so I came back quickly, and I didn't see it very really......"

Although Yu Chi Jiming said this with a lot of leeway, Qiu Yi was very sure in his heart: Wen Honghui, the sect leader of that day, was alive in the world and did not die in the water of the Yangtze River - and the person who was fished out of the river a few days later must be the stand-in that Wen Honghui had been preparing to die for a long time.

Lin Shuhan, who was on the side, listened to these words, and his mouth grew in surprise.

Although Zheng Miao didn't know the details, he also guessed that there must be a big change, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Xian, is there something big going on on the side of the King of Lingnan?" ”

"That's right! Something big has happened! Qiu Yi said as she pulled Zheng Miao to her and said, "Tianzun Sect Master Wen Honghui drowned last year, do you remember this incident?" ”

Zheng Miao frowned and said, "Remember." The matter of Tianzun Sect was personally inquired by my father and Master Zhongli, although I was in the center to help with government affairs, I didn't know it in great detail, I only remember that he was forced to drown by his virtuous brother next to the Yanziji Wharf outside Nanjing, and at that time, my father was so happy that he praised the virtuous brother a few words......"

Qiu Yizhi sighed: "Alas! I'm afraid that the little brother has lived up to the holy hope! This Heavenly Venerable Sect Master is not dead! is even more colluded with the king of Lingnan! It's here now, in the side hall of King Lingnan! ”

"What!" Zheng Miao couldn't believe her ears, "Although the virtuous brother has a big deal, he has never missed, this Tianzun sect leader actually has such a ability, can he deceive his brother's ears and eyes from the sky and the sea?" ”

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly said: "It's all to blame for the little brother's great joy and negligence for a while, and then I will ask my father in person for the future." But now, this Tianzun Sect Master, who has always been against the imperial court, colludes with the Lingnan Prince, who has always been against him, what good thing can he do? Presumably, there must be changes in the world, and we are now in the center of the vortex, and we can't help but make a move. ”

Zheng Miao nodded, and was about to speak, but heard Qiu Yizhi continue: "Now the situation is obscure, please leave here immediately!" Although he used the word "please", his tone was extremely firm, and he could not refute the discussion in the slightest.

If it is an ordinary person, all of them will be impressed by Qiu Yizhi's tone and demeanor, and the later general Bai Wenbo, Jiangnan Provincial Assassin Shi Yin Chengliang, Tianzun Sect Leader Wen Honghui, Pseudo Emperor Zheng Yao, and so on are all amazing characters.

But Zheng Miao shook her head: "Brother Xian, is this looking down on me?" In such a situation, how could the foolish brother leave the virtuous brother here alone? If the foolish brother runs back, but the virtuous brother is in the enemy's situation, then the foolish brother will have no face in the world in the future. ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he was moved in his heart, and quickly suppressed his excitement and said, "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. What kind of identity is the third brother, if he is caught by the king of Lingnan, the court will be embarrassed, and in the future, a large-scale rebellion will be suppressed, and the emperor will inevitably not throw into the rat trap, wouldn't it be a big deal......"
