Chapter 294: Meet the Prince
This method of forcing the palace was planned by Lan Shuang, and when she heard it, she immediately raised her eyebrows and sneered: "It turns out that Miss Sima is here to help the prince?" ”
Sima Hongyan shook his head and said: "I just said, I won't help anyone, I'm just here to hang out and chat, don't worry about Miss Lanshuang!" ”
Yan Hao ignored the two of them arguing and asked, "What do you mean by this stupid method, do you have a better idea?" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Lord Wang! This method of forcing the palace seems to be seamless, but it is actually full of loopholes, which is harmful to the prince's plan and not beneficial. ”
Yan Hao was appetized by Sima Hongyan and said, "This king really wants to hear what Miss Sima has to say!" ”
Sima Hongyan glanced at Lan Shuang, who had a cold face but a surprised look in his eyes, and then said, "If my guess is right." This method of forcing the palace is either because of the stubbornness of the emperor, which leads to the burial of thousands of people, and ends up with the name of a faint monarch for 10,000 years, and the prince can take the opportunity to seize the throne. Either the emperor will automatically abdicate, and one person's death will be exchanged for everyone's life, and the prince will naturally take over the throne. I don't know if Hongyan is right? ”
Yan Hao and Lan Shuang were noncommittal, but Sima Hongyan could tell from the look of surprise in their eyes that he was right. So she continued: "It sounds very reasonable, but the actual implementation backfires, and I am afraid that the emperor and the prince will not be able to sit on the dragon chair, and it is not good to say that the Yan dynasty of Yanling has changed from now on." ”
These words shocked Yan Hao's heart, and Lan Shuang slowly put his hand on the whip on his waist.
Sima Hongyan continued: "Lord Wang! You have made a few mistakes here, I want to give you a heads-up! Without waiting for Yan Hao to answer, Sima Hongyan sat down on the chair next to him, and continued: "Now there are still 5,000 forbidden troops in the inner city of the palace, and the person in command is His Royal Highness the Nine, I don't know how much the prince knows about this Royal Highness the Nine?" ”
Yan Hao said: "My nephew naturally knows very well. ”
Sima Hongyan said: "I think the prince still doesn't know enough!" Does the prince know that Hongyan was kidnapped by Dongning a few days ago? Just fled back to Yanling a month ago? ”
Yan Hao glanced at Lan Shuang and said, "I know!" ”
Sima Hongyan asked again: "Then does the prince know how Hongyan escaped back to Yanling?" ”
Yan Hao nodded and said, "I've heard that it was your friend who rescued you back." ”
Sima Hongyan said: "What the prince said is right! The person who rescued me back was Yan Hong, the Nine Emperor Princes. ”
Yan Hao and Lan Shuang were shocked, they knew that Sima Hongyan escaped from Dongning with the help of his friends, although it was rumored in the palace that it was Yan Hong who rescued Sima Hongyan, but Yan Hao felt that it was unlikely that the prince would enter another country without permission, so he was always skeptical of this rumor. Today, when I heard Sima Hongyan admit it in person, I was still secretly surprised.
And Sima Hongyan also deliberately detained Yan Hong for this matter.
Lan Shuang couldn't help but say on the side: "So what? ”
Sima Hongyan suddenly got up and walked towards Lan Shuang. Lan Shuang's heart tightened, she clenched the leather whip in her hand, and stared at Sima Hongyan's actions, but whenever she made a move, she immediately turned her face.
And after Sima Hongyan approached Lan Shuang, she just stared at her with a pair of wonderful eyes, and said contemptuously: "I know that I was kidnapped from Yanling to Dongning, and you planned it. And I can also tell you that I also know that you are the one who has been ambushing and snooping outside the women's barracks in a row. No matter how careful your mind is, it is impossible to be completely negligent, our affairs will be left aside today, now that I am talking to our prince of Yanling, you had better keep your mouth shut and interject! ”
Lan Shuang was immediately furious, and she was about to have a seizure right away, but who knew that Prince Yan Hao glanced at her and stopped her.
This is in Yanling, and the soldiers outside are also Yanling's soldiers, they don't listen to the prince or not, if they ignore the prince's intentions at this time, it is inevitable that their efforts will be wasted. So although Lan Shuang is very popular, he can only endure it.
Yan Hao ignored Lan Shuang's anger and said to Sima Hongyan: "Miss Sima, you go on!" ”
Sima Hongyan turned around and returned to his seat, and continued: "At that time, Yan Hong and I were in the wilderness of Dongning, fighting against thousands of officers and soldiers, as well as more than 100 reincarnation assassins in Dongning, including the twelve fierce beasts, the six great Hades and other masters at that time, and we were only twenty or thirty people, and we were still able to retreat with our whole body, all thanks to the extraordinary skills of His Royal Highness the Nine. ”
When Sima Hongyan said the "Six Great Hades", Lan Shuang's face changed again.
Yan Hao sighed slightly after hearing this, and said, "Yan Hong is indeed a lot of skills, but so what? ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Lord Wang! Now that the 5,000 forbidden troops in the imperial city are under the command of Yan Hong, guarding the palace gate and being able to confront the 20,000 rebels, isn't the prince worried? ”
Yan Hao smiled disdainfully and said, "This is just the benevolence of this king, otherwise an order can immediately break through the imperial city and leave no one inside." ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Since it's so simple, then what are you waiting for?" Just order the siege directly, why waste time here? ”
"......" Yan Hao was stunned by Sima Hongyan's question.
Sima Hongyan continued: "If the prince really does this, even if he can capture the palace, I'm afraid that if he wants to sit on the dragon chair, the people of the world will not agree, right?" When disputes arise, it is inevitable that outsiders will not take advantage of it! As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Lan Shuang.
Yan Hao said: "Maybe what you said makes sense, but what does this have to do with Yan Hong?" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "No matter how many soldiers there are, they can't prevent the martial arts masters from coming high and going low, with Yan Hong's ability, does the prince think that these ordinary soldiers in the palace can stop him?" ”
Yan Hao said: "You mean that Yan Hong will come to assassinate the king?" It's possible, but with the Blue Maiden by the king's side, plus the guards outside. No matter how high his martial arts are, he can't deal with thousands of officers and soldiers! ”
Sima Hongyan said: "The power of Dongning alone has not been able to stop Yan Hong from sneaking in, not to mention these tens of thousands of soldiers, the prince really underestimated His Royal Highness Jiu." ”
Yan Hao's face changed color slightly when he said this.
Sima Hongyan said at the right time: "Hongyan is just saying a possibility, the prince doesn't have to worry too much!" ”
Yan Hao snorted and didn't speak, but his face had become not very good-looking, and Sima Hongyan could see that Yan Hao had listened to it, and he thought so. Her goal has been achieved, she just wants Yan Hao's heart to fluctuate and have scruples.
Sima Hongyan said again: "One more thing, Hongyan heard that now the civil and military officials are also trapped in the imperial city, for the prince, I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing?" ”
Yan Hao didn't answer and asked, "What does Miss Sima think?" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "On the surface, it should be a good thing, the civil and military officials are trapped, which can make the dragons in the capital leaderless, even if there are hundreds of thousands of garrisons outside the capital, but no one commands, it will not become a climate." And as a courtier, it is nothing more than a mixed meal, and it doesn't matter to them who is the emperor. Especially when facing their own safety at this time, they will definitely save their lives first. Therefore, once the food in the imperial city is exhausted, these officials will naturally become the prince's helpers and take the initiative to force the emperor to abdicate. ”
This is exactly what Yan Hao thought, he nodded proudly: "You said that this is indeed the case!" ”
Sima Hongyan smiled and said, "But what if these ministers don't play a role in the prince's plan?" I think that if these officials defected, they would not have survived. ”
Yan Hao said: "That is exactly what the king wants, and he Yan Zhen has repudiated the crime of harming the virtuous." ”
Sima Hongyan said: "The prince's words are wrong, and the defection is really treason against the king, and he killed the law of the country, where did he come from the crime of harming the virtuous?" Besides, if the minister kills, he will be killed, and he will be promoted in the future. Does the prince think that the emperor will still care about their lives at this time? ”
Yan Hao was stunned again!
Sima Hongyan said: "There is only one result that can make the emperor bear the sin of harming the virtuous, that is, after killing hundreds of officials, the emperor is also dead!" As long as there is no emperor, then what you want to say is your business! The people don't know the truth, and then the prince can make up stories casually and hide them from the people. ”
Yan Hao nodded involuntarily and said, "What you said has some truth!" ”
Sima Hongyan saw that Yan Hao had begun to follow his logic, so he continued: "So Lord Wang, you can't let the emperor die now, you have to wait for them to fight among themselves in order to achieve your goal." Because once the emperor dies, the prince can succeed to the throne, and then you still won't get what you want, right? ”
Seeing that Yan Hao was silent in thought, Sima Hongyan said again: "Actually, now you are the world's recognized rebel and thief, if you want to ascend to the throne justifiably, and you want Yan Ling to admit that you are in accordance with the mandate of heaven, I don't think you can do it at all by these means now." ”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Yan Hao's eyes, and he said, "This king is a chaotic minister and thief? This world should have been the king, and it should have been the king who inherited the throne back then, but it was he Yanzhen who was despicable and shameless, secretly poisoned and stole the throne. After so many years of house arrest in the capital, and sending people to monitor him at all times, he should be a chaotic minister and thief! ”
Sima Hongyan persuaded: "Don't get excited, I'm just stating the facts." In fact, none of this is important, the important thing is that the emperor and the prince can only stay one now, if the emperor does not die, the prince will not be able to sit on the throne, I don't know if what Hongyan said is right? ”
Yan Hao gritted his teeth and said, "That's right! ”
Sima Hongyan said: "But have you ever thought about it, Lord Wang?" There's no way you can kill the emperor! ”
Yan Hao looked at Sima Hongyan angrily, and asked sharply, "You said I can't kill Yan Zhen?" ”
Sima Hongyan was not afraid, and replied: "That's right, I will say this when you are angry, this is a fact, you can't help the emperor at all!" It can even be said that it has reached the point where it is difficult to ride a tiger! ”
Yan Hao said angrily: "Believe it or not, I will order to enter the palace and kill them now!" ”
Sima Hongyan said: "Lord Wang, as long as you give this order, you will not be able to kill the emperor." As the so-called life and death battle against the water, the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, all the generals who will fight in Yanling are in the imperial city at this time, once it is time for life and death, with their cooperation, plus the five thousand forbidden army is desperate, I think it should not be difficult to kill more than 20,000 people, right? Don't look at the few soldiers in the imperial city, but these generals are all battle-hardened people, coupled with the prestige of the past, I think these soldiers of yours will lose first before they fight! ”
The more Yan Hao listened, the more angry he became, and said angrily: "You dare to underestimate this king's army? ”
