Chapter 740: Then be the emperor
Chang Wen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and took away the anger in his eyes, even if he was somewhat restrained, he still couldn't control the coldness of his tone: "The blessing of the third prince was not given an account there." ”
"Hahaha." Zhou Bohong did not deny or feel guilty about Chang Wen's questioning at all, but said helplessly: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have received the help of His Second Highness." After a pause, he smiled and said, "Don't Your Highness think that by helping me win the throne, our chances of winning will be one more point?" ”
Chang Wen's gaze shifted from the teacup, looked at Zhou Bohong, hid the haze in his heart, and bowed his head.
Zhou Bohong's eyes moved down to see the reaction of Chang Wen's hand slightly bent, and he said firmly: "Do you think that besides me, there are other candidates who can help you win Dachu." ”
Chang Wen suddenly loosened his fingers that were clenched together, and said with a smile: "Naturally not, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you three times or twice, say, what are you going to do." ”
"Okay, you help me win the throne, my Zhou State will definitely not cross the river and tear down the bridge, and 100,000 troops are at your disposal." Zhou Bohong said proudly, and the two raised their hands to collide with the teacups in the air, tacitly reaching an agreement with each other.
In the palace of Zhou, King Zhou fiddled with black and white chess pieces and went down by himself, his father-in-law came to report, Zhou Bohong and Chang Wen came together, in Zhou Bohong's recommendation, King Zhou quickly believed in Chang Wen's sincerity.
"Please also ask the king to send troops to help me win the throne of Great Chu." Chang Wen's imperative must fall into the eyes of King Zhou, King Zhou did not respond in a hurry, but glanced at Zhou Bohong,
"Hong'er is planning to do the same?" As soon as the king of Zhou said this, Zhou Bohong immediately bowed down and said: "Erchen thinks that if he wins the city and expands my territory of the Great Zhou, it doesn't matter who he is the king of Chu State. ”
This is his ultimate goal, he must not only be able to seize the throne of Zhou, but at least have the ability to compete with Great Chu.
As the king of a country, King Zhou naturally has always had the ambition to dominate the world, he did not react on his face but weighed the pros and cons in his heart, and then pushed away the unfinished chess game, and said with a smile: "Good, good!" My good emperor! ”
The kung fu of a cup of tea decided the war between the two countries, and in this way, it directly changed from Changwen's forced palace to the war between Zhou and Chu, and without any war book, Zhou successively captured the two cities of right and stability, and approached Tianshui.
And the far side of Dachu received an urgent document from the border pass, and the entire court was furious, and they all wanted to crusade against the Zhou State and recapture the city.
In the imperial study, the emperor supported his sick body and watched the folds in his hand, turning a deaf ear to Chang Yi's request.
"Father, why do I want to investigate the matter of my mother several times, you can't give me any support, even if you have a harem of three thousand, you can't prevent me from investigating the truth about my mother's death!" Chang Yi was very excited, he didn't expect his father to send someone to take away the evidence he had searched for many years.
He couldn't do what he had before, and regardless of anyone's dissuasion, he rushed directly into the imperial study.
And his words made the emperor, who had been speechless, suddenly cough violently, and pointed at Chang Yi tremblingly with a recital: "You...... Shut up! ”
But Chang Yi was willing to listen to it in his anger, and shouted directly: "Did I say something wrong?" Chang Yi sneered: "Maybe you have any troubles, but don't tell me, since you love this country as your life, then your wife will be separated and you will keep this great river and mountain alone!" ”
After finishing speaking, he brushed his sleeves away, the emperor behind him coughed constantly, Chang Yi couldn't bear it, but he didn't look back ruthlessly, and happened to open the door and met Lu Qingyi, who walked in, and his heart was a little calmer, but his body didn't stop, and he went out of the imperial study directly.
"Your Majesty, your anger hurts your body, if your body is angry again, even if it is a Daluo Immortal, it won't be able to save you." Lu Qingyi said as he wanted to step forward and stretch out his hand to check the emperor's pulse, but the emperor waved his hand, so he had to bring a cup of warm water to the emperor. Think
Leaning on the dragon couch, the emperor felt much better, and said slowly: "I didn't call you here this time to see my body. ”
Lu Qingyi bowed his head, and he had already guessed most of it in his heart.
The emperor handed over the fold in his hand to Lu Qingyi, and said: "This Chang Wen directly surrendered to the enemy, and now he is helping the Zhou State to attack my Great Chu's city, if this matter is not understood as soon as possible, it will bring endless disasters to my Great Chu." ”
Lu Qingyi's handsome face is also very serious, the border is in an emergency, not only the city is lost, but even the people in the city have been burned, killed, tortured, and plundered, which makes people angry when they see it.
"But now the only solution is to send troops, General He is dismissed, although the newly appointed hussar general is brave, but lacks strategy, he is the best candidate......" The emperor's voice paused when he said this, and he looked at Lu Qingyi, and the meaning could not be clearer.
Lu Qingyi listened attentively, and when he heard the emperor's meaning, Shen Xi's voice suddenly lingered in his ears: "Don't enter the court as an official." ”
It was Lu Qingyi who folded the music and said to the emperor: "The emperor is wise, it is not too late for Tianshui to start a war, Xiaosheng believes that this is the best opportunity for the three princes to lead the troops to the battle." ”
Looking at Lu Qingyi's resolute face, the emperor chuckled, and helplessly pointed his finger at Lu Qingyi: "You, you, will shirk it, don't want civil officials, even military generals disdain?" ”
suddenly thought of what the third child said just now, and his face was quite helpless.
The country he guarded all his life was, in the eyes of some people, nothing more than that.
But when he lost his beloved, he also knew that since he was in this position, everything was up to him.
Lu Qingyi finally gave the emperor a pulse diagnosis before leaving, and after leaving the imperial study, he still held the urgent documents in his hand, and went directly to the mansion of the third prince Chang Yi without returning to the Lu Mansion.
The subordinates were all kicked out of the door, Lu Qingyi looked at the people waiting in a row outside the door, and pushed the door open.
The table was full of delicacies, but not a single chopstick had been moved, but the jars of wine were all staggered.
Seeing Lu Qingyi coming, Chang Yi just raised his eyelids, pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, burped and said with a smile: "Do you think I'm useless?" ”
Lu Qingyi sat opposite and poured himself a glass of wine, and only after drinking it did he answer: "You have already stood out among the princes, and you are about to be the candidate for the throne, how can it be useless?"
Chang Yi couldn't listen to the words at all, and directly overturned the food in front of him, only to hear Chang Yi speak: "What about the throne, I'm not rare, I can't do it if I want to investigate the truth about my mother." ”
Saying that, Gu Dong Gu Dong began to pour himself wine again, Lu Qingyi furrowed his eyebrows, and was about to step forward to stop it, only to hear the door being pushed open again, Chang Yi directly smashed the wine jar over, and roared angrily: "Get out!" ”
"It's useless to be a prince, then be the emperor, what do you want to investigate at that time, who can stop you?" A beautiful female voice spoke, and Shen Xi walked into the door and closed the door tightly by the way.
