Chapter 408: Showdown

Without a trace received accurate information, Xue Yin actually went to Yin's house alone in the second half of last night, and discussed with Yin Tianhu in a room for nearly an hour.

Xue Yin is undoubtedly the representative of the Xue family, why would the people who support the emperor find people who support the five princes? When they disagree, what will they talk about after all?

It's just that this is enough to prove that Yin Tianhu is obviously not on the same line as the fifth prince.

Xing Tianze slowly sat down on the stool, if the Yin family was on the verge of defection, the situation would become extremely unoptimistic.

Suddenly, a guard quickly ran to the door of the study, knelt down respectfully, and said that Marshal Yin Tianhu asked to see him.

Xing Tianze showed a wry smile on his face, he was really afraid of anything, but Yin Tianhu had already come, and they couldn't avoid it, so they had no choice but to befriend him in the front hall.

Drinking the tea sent by his subordinates, Yin Tianhu's face looked a little ugly, he didn't know whether the choice to go to the Five Kings' Mansion today was right or wrong, but the situation in front of him no longer allowed to be delayed and delayed.

In this kind of stormy situation, the position of the Yin family undoubtedly increases the bargaining chips that the victory tilts towards that side.

"I don't know why Uncle Yin came here today?" As soon as Xing Tianze entered the front hall, he greeted with a smile.

"When I have nothing to do, I want to come to the prince to hang out." Yin Tianhu put down the teacup in his hand, and a shallow smile appeared on his face.

"Uncle, you are the generalissimo of a country, and you will still have nothing to do?" Xing Tianze opened his mouth again and quipped: "According to this king, you should not have come here just for a cup of tea, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Yin Tianhu's face suddenly froze, he did have something very important to discuss with the Fifth Prince, but he really didn't know how to speak.

Seeing the look of embarrassment on Yin Tianhu's face, Xing Tianze smiled and waved his hand to signal him not to take care of it, and to speak freely if he had anything to say.

After taking several deep breaths, Yin Tianhu seemed to have made such a difficult decision, and dared to ask the Fifth Lord about something.

When will this game between him and the emperor end?

Xing Tianze's face turned slightly, and he silently picked up the teacup.

"The prince forgives me, it's not that I don't know what is going on, it's just that now the country of Xingzhao is already a scene of national peace and security, this peaceful and prosperous world is not easy to come by, and the fifth prince and the emperor are half-brothers, and they have a family relationship that blood is thicker than water." When Yin Tianhu said this, Xing Tianze's eyes were full of hope.

"The two of you are the pillars of the criminal Zhao country, if any of you are damaged, whether it is for the country, the people or personally, it will be more than worth the loss." Yin Tianhu's voice became smaller and quieter.

Xing Tianze put the teacup on the table vigorously and spilled a lot of tea.

"Even if the prince is angry, the old man has to say that if you fight with the emperor for a long time, it will only consume our own strength and create opportunities for other hostile countries to attack us." The more Yin Tianhu continued, the more angry his tone became.

"Lord Wang, you are a smart person, you should not do such a thing that makes relatives and enemies happy, besides, it is innocent people who suffer from the sudden outbreak of war......"

Xing Tianze slapped the table fiercely, and instantly stood up and retorted: "Where are there any innocent people in this world!" ”

As the words of the fifth prince landed, the atmosphere in the entire front hall suddenly became quiet, and the two looked at each other with wide eyes.

In the end, Yin Tianhu sighed deeply, at this moment, he seemed to be ten years old in an instant, and all the momentum on his body became sluggish.

Xing Tianze also seemed to feel that his behavior was a little excessive, and he lowered his head slightly and returned to the chair to sit down.

Looking at the silent Fifth Prince, Yin Tianhu realized how unrealistic his idea was, and it was a fantasy to make Xing Tianze, who had completely taken the advantage, suddenly give up what he had been fighting for more than 20 years.

Yin Tianhu left the palace without saying a word, Xing Tianze suddenly had an extra vacancy in his heart, although neither of them expressed their thoughts in their hearts, but what they did and said was undoubtedly a showdown......

Time passed extremely quickly, and half a month passed quickly, during which Situ Lei found Xing Tianze three times, but the two did not talk about any actual results.

In addition, there was another incident, Gongsun Yan, who was originally from the seven counties in the south of the Yangtze River, died violently in the room, and suddenly the government and the opposition oscillated, and smart people realized the same problem, which was the clarion call for Xing Tianze to start putting pressure on the emperor.

The news of Tao Mingzhao's house arrest also spread to Fuyang Kingdom, and the emperor smashed the inkstone heavily.

"Stupid, simply stupid!" The Emperor's chest kept rising and falling.

Lin Yuan, who was standing in the imperial study, frowned deeply, they really couldn't figure out why Tao Mingzhao wanted to poison Xing Tianze?

This is undoubtedly the idea in the emperor's heart, and the bamboo basket is empty.

"The emperor is angry, the most important thing now is to bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back from the Xingzhao Kingdom." Lin Yuan spoke respectfully.

"What are you doing when you come back with these wine bags and rice bags?" The emperor was obviously angry, and he couldn't wait to summon Tao Ming to cramp and peel his skin.

His original intention was to let Tao Mingzhao go to Xingzhao Kingdom with a gift and hand it over to Tao Mingxi, so as to draw in the relationship between Fuyang Kingdom and Xing Tianze.

However, intelligence records record that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince handed over the treasure to Emperor Xingzhao the day after he arrived in the Kingdom of Xingzhao, thus obtaining a noble mansion in the capital.

"Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has done something wrong, he is the prince of our country after all, if anything goes wrong......" Lin Yuan did not finish his words.

The emperor closed his eyes deeply, and after taking several deep breaths, he asked Lin Yuan to send a henchman to tell Lin Yan to summon Tao Ming back as soon as possible and live or die.

Lin Yuan looked at the emperor in shock, he suddenly understood one thing, the crown prince had become worthless in the eyes of the emperor, so he had to weigh the development of the Lin family well, whether he would continue to support Tao Mingzhao......

Xing Tianze sat in the study with Wuxian playing chess, Tao Mingxi sat on the side and looked at the bamboo slips, although four or five high-ranking ministers had been killed in the capital during this time, but the five princes' mansions were closed.

Yin Tianhu has often run to the palace these days, and the Yin family's position has changed.

For a while, the resources available to the emperor became abundant again, and Situ Lei had not heard any news since he last came to visit the Fifth Prince.

In this regard, Tao Mingxi could only shake his head slightly, seeking good fortune and avoiding evil for his own benefit.

"The prince's characterization seems to have been shaken a little." Traceless's tone was a little low, and he reached out and landed a sunspot on the chessboard.

Xing Tianze held the chess pieces, and after hesitating on the chessboard, he threw Bai Zi back into the chess cup, and he had already said a piece of chess.

After getting up from the stool, Xing Tianze walked to the window. As Traceless said, his mood was indeed a little messy.
