Chapter 357: The Second Prince's Scheme
Since the last time he met the three princes in the Imperial Garden, Chen Zhi felt that the three princes' attitudes towards him had changed a lot, and Chen Zhi felt a little guilty in his heart.
During this time, although the three princes seemed to bully Chen Zhi at every turn, they would always be blocked by the three princes.
Chen Zhi is a smart person, so he can naturally see that the third prince is really good to himself, but because the third prince is the second prince, even if he is good to himself, he can't show it blatantly.
In any case, on the surface, the third prince is the person of the second prince, if the second prince knows that the third prince has actually been secretly helping Chen Zhi, no matter how stupid the second prince is, he will doubt the loyalty of the third prince to himself.
Chen Zhi also knew that although the third prince was subordinate to the second prince on the surface, he actually looked down on the second prince at all in his heart. The third prince is a brave and resourceful person, while the second prince is only brave and unstrategic, and his behavior is a little arrogant, although many people seem to be his people on the surface, and they are almost the same as the third prince behind their backs, and they all feel that such a person is difficult to use.
There are a lot of people in the second prince, so when the border pass came that the army of Zhao was slowly gathering, the second prince also knew the news.
While knowing the news, the second prince also had some thoughts in his heart, although the world often said that "if the enemy does not move, I will not move". However, the personality and temper of the second prince are impossible for the second prince to wait to be beaten by others.
Although, the second prince already had the idea of sending troops to attack Zhao first, but, after all, the emperor was still there, so the second prince could only think about it first.
called the third prince and some of his ministers, and the second prince began to talk about this matter.
"His Royal Highness has received news that the forces of Zhao at the border passes of Zhao and Qi have increased, and I think we should preemptively persuade our father to send troops to attack Zhao. Can't listen to Raush's enemies and I won't move, that's just a sign of self-deception, thinking that if we don't react, the other party won't attack us? It's ridiculous. The second prince sat on the throne and said with a sneer.
The guests below listened to the words of the second prince, and exchanged words with each other, and then saw the third prince stand up and arch his hand and said, "What the second brother said is very true. Regardless of whether we attack Zhao State or not, Zhao State will definitely attack us, it is better for us to make a move first and take Zhao State by surprise. ”
Everyone is talking to each other again, and some people think that the statements of the second prince and the third prince are indeed fine. Some people who don't like war naturally don't want to go to war.
Therefore, at this time, someone stood up and said: "Second prince, I think that although Zhao Guo has gathered soldiers and horses, we don't know anything about the current situation of Zhao State now, and we don't know whether Zhao Guo wants to fight or just send people to guard the border pass. If we rashly attack Zhao, I am afraid that it will arouse the opposition of the ministers of the DPRK and China. ”
In fact, this person's statement is just self-deception, even the second prince can see that Zhao Guo is plotting against him, how can he just simply send people?
Therefore, after this person finished speaking, the second prince's face changed, and he saw that the second prince's face was gloomy, and his eyes were full of ridicule, as if he was talking about this person's ignorance and greed for life and fear of death.
"It seems that His Highness has raised you for nothing!" The second prince's voice also became a little sideways, and it sounded that the second prince was extremely unhappy now.
For the third prince to agree with his idea, the second prince is very happy, and he has more trust in the third prince, originally the second prince thought that this time his idea would make everyone agree and praise him, who knows that since someone is against it, the second prince is naturally unhappy.
The people below heard what the second prince said, and they all felt a little weak, what the second prince said was right, they were indeed raised by the second prince for nothing, they seemed to be the people of the second prince, in fact, they listened to the words of the third prince more.
To put it bluntly, the second prince is raising them for the third prince, and he doesn't know it. I think it's my own people, but in fact, they are all making wedding dresses for others.
For these, the third prince doesn't care, since the second prince is willing to be the first bird, the third prince is naturally unwilling to stop him, on the contrary, the third prince has to help the second prince.
Seeing that the second prince seemed to be a little angry, the third prince hurriedly stood up and persuaded: "Second brother, don't be angry. There is some truth in what these people say. However, no matter what, there are fewer generals in the DPRK now, I am afraid that the second brother proposed to his father to take the initiative to attack Zhao, and his father has no available people! ”
The second prince's words are on the point, and when he persuaded the second prince, his expression was the kind of me completely for your good, and he was very serious. Therefore, the second prince didn't expect that the third prince's words were just to let the second prince fall into the trap.
The temper of the second prince, the third prince is clear, the second prince is arrogant by nature, and attacking Zhao is a matter of ease for the second prince.
Although the second prince is ruthless and a little self-righteous in doing things, the second prince's kung fu is still good, which is obvious to many people in the court.
Therefore, the third prince deliberately said that there was no one available in the court, and according to the temper of the second prince, he would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity to make contributions.
Sure enough, I saw the second prince laugh and said, "Hahaha, third brother, haven't you forgotten who I am, second brother?" Second brother, my kung fu, how many people in Qi Country can match? Zhao Guo is just an ant, and as soon as I get out of the horse, it's not a matter of being caught. ”
The third prince made a look of sudden realization, a smile hung on his face, and then said to the second prince as if complimenting: "What the second brother said is that the second brother is so brave and good at fighting, how can Zhao Guo be the opponent of the second brother, but he is just asking for hardship." ”
Everyone saw that the second prince had made up their minds, and no one said anything against it, and they all said that if the second prince came out, within three months, he would definitely be able to take the Zhao State.
Seeing that the second prince looked confident, the third prince raised the teacup with a smile and said to the second prince: "Second brother, the third brother is here, make tea as wine, first wish the second brother can get what he wants, let his father agree to attack Zhao State, and then wish the second brother a victory and win Zhao State in one fell swoop." Waiting for the second brother to win the Zhao State is the hero of our Qi State, and after a hundred years of his father's emperor, the second brother will definitely ascend to the throne. ”
was very happy by the words of the third prince, and the second prince also smiled and raised the teacup, and when everyone saw this, they all raised the teacup and said congratulations.
"When I go out to attack Zhao State, Qi Kingdom needs the third brother to watch more here." Not only did the second prince not suspect the reason why the third prince let him fight, but he even asked the third prince to watch the palace for him.
The corners of most of the mouths of the people below raised a touch of mockery, this second prince is really stupid.
