Section 24 Strategy
Situ Biao, who came out of the palace, was in a state of confusion, how could things have become like this? Obviously, yesterday morning, the court was still peaceful, how could his father turn his face and change his mind? Could it be that how did Qiu and the ministers of the court have such great power?
Situ Biao didn't believe it, he knew his father's surname very well, if he didn't have any thoughts in his heart, even if your Royal Highness's courtiers said it, he wouldn't change his mind. This can only show one problem, this Li Wufeng's forces are developing too fast, and he is already suspected of being a high-ranking master, which will make his father have scruples. Then what should I do? Does my father think that he also plays some kind of role in it, and even has some ideas? Thinking of this, Situ Biao couldn't help but shudder.
Hurriedly getting into the luxurious carriage with the royal insignia that had already been parked at the door, Situ Biao tightened the fur on his body, and the fiery red charcoal basin on the carriage emitted bursts of heat, but it could not dispel the chill in his heart at all.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that his master was unsettled since he jumped into the car, and his face was quite ugly, the middle-aged man who had been waiting in the morning carriage asked softly, a pair of eyes were small but shining, his eyebrows were as black as a sword, and his lips trembled slightly.
"Alas, Mr. Hu, the situation is not good. As if he had just woken up from sleepwalking, Situ Biao let out a long sigh, and then turned his hopeful eyes to the middle-aged man beside him who was not amazing, "My father seems to have been influenced by some ministers in the court, and his opinion of Li Wufeng has changed greatly, and he has the meaning of putting Li Wufeng under house arrest. ”
"Oh?" The middle-aged man was also shocked, this was a terrifying news, if it wasn't for the rough words from his master, and his master had just come out of the palace, he would never have believed the news.
"Your Highness, is this news reliable?" the middle-aged man asked in a deep groan, knowing that this sentence would definitely upset his master, but the stakes were so high that he had to ask clearly.
"There shouldn't be anything wrong, that's what my mother told me. Situ Biao was a little impatient.
"Is it news from the Imperial Princess? That shouldn't be a problem. The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Your Highness, what are you going to do?"
"What should I do? I'm also very embarrassed now, Li Wufeng, this guy is ambitious, blindly optimistic, and he ended up in this fate, purely to blame, but now everyone knows that the two of us are walking very tightly, if we don't get away early, I'm worried that the plant will connect me. But my strength is still too weak now, and without the help of this guy, I'm afraid I have no hope at all. What a dilemma!" Situ Biao was very distressed.
"Your Highness, I may not see you the same way. The middle-aged man said after a moment's thought.
"Oh?" Situ Biao was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Then you can tell me and listen to it." ”
"In my opinion, His Majesty the Emperor has not yet made up his mind about how to deal with Li Wufeng, otherwise he would not have praised Li Wufeng in the court yesterday. And I don't see any other special behavior of Li Wufeng at the moment, I think His Majesty the Emperor may have some ideas, to observe for a while, or it is possible to take some other compromise measures to deal with Li Wufeng, after all, directly depriving Li Wufeng of his position and power is too obvious, and it will also cause a strong reaction from the people, Li Wufeng has a lot of prestige among the people. If it is not handled well, it may even cause turmoil in the situation in the northwest, and His Majesty will not fail to consider this. The middle-aged man analyzed unhurriedly.
"Well, that makes sense, go ahead. Situ Biao saw that the middle-aged man was still a little unsatisfied, and motioned for him to continue.
"Secondly, even if Your Majesty disposes of Li Wufeng, I don't think it will implicate His Highness. The middle-aged man said affirmatively.
"How can you see it?" Situ Biao was amazed by his point of view, knowing that Zhu Lian's practice was a common method in the imperial court.
"If Li Wufeng is disposed of by His Majesty, it is because his power has expanded too quickly, and His Majesty and the ministers of the court and the central government are worried that the empire will be difficult to control, and he will become the second Lin Guoxiong or Lang Yongquan. As for His Royal Highness, your surname is Situ, and you are the personal son of His Majesty the Emperor, if you say something that should not be said, for His Majesty the Emperor, even if you or any of the other His Highnesses inherit the throne, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, after all, they are all surnamed Situ, and they are all his sons, of course, he prefers the person in his mind to inherit his throne. Now that His Majesty the Emperor is old, you and several other His Highnesses who are expected to take the throne are all gearing up, hoping to win the battle for the throne in the future, and it is inevitable that they will develop their own strength.
"It's just that His Majesty the Emperor has not yet decided who will inherit the throne, which makes all the princes, including Your Highness, secretly accumulate strength for the time being. Your Highness, in your opinion, if Your Majesty is to pass on to you, do you think that the other Highnesses will bow down to you?" the middle-aged man asked suddenly.
Situ Biao shook his head for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's difficult." The eldest brother, the third brother, the seventh brother and even the ninth brother are now stronger than me, unless my father can still control the overall situation, maybe I can avoid a fight, if His Majesty passes on the throne when he is dying, it is difficult to say the intention of the Praetorian Guard and the City Guard, hehe, I don't think anyone will be willing to lie in ambush. Especially the eldest brother, the third brother and the seventh brother, all of whom control a fairly powerful army in their hands, and they will never give up. ”
"Your Highness, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, would you be willing to let you live this life in peace?" said the middle-aged man with a complicated look in his eyes.
Situ Biao was stunned again, and then replied decisively: "The eldest husband has only been in life for a few decades, if he cowers in everything, won't he live in vain?
"Understood. The middle-aged man sighed secretly in his heart, "Then I will suggest that His Highness immediately disclose this news to Li Wufeng, Li Wufeng is not a mediocre person who can climb to this position today, he has his own solution." The battle for the throne is ultimately decided through the struggle of strength, since His Royal Highness has made up his mind, don't worry too much, our foundation in the army is too poor, far less than His Highnesses the Big, Three, and Seventh, and the strength of the court to support us is far inferior to His Highness the Nine, so we must find a firm ally, Li Wufeng is our best choice, we must be consistent with him, you must know that anyone will do the icing on the cake, and it will be commendable to send charcoal in the snow. ”
Situ Biao listened to the advice of his chief assistant with a solemn expression, and did not speak for a long time, the middle-aged man smiled slightly bitterly, and said: "In addition, I have to tell His Highness two bad news, the suspicions I originally raised with His Highness should be true after verification." ”
Seeing that Situ Biao didn't react for a while, he had to explain: "The Third Highness did send someone to secretly make contact with the Sanjiang Lin family many times, but the specific situation is not clear, and His Highness has also personally had secret meetings with important people in the Dotun Kingdom and the Principality of Gerook. ”
"What?!" Situ Biao's whole body was shocked, obviously this news stimulated him quite a lot, "Is it already true?"
"Well, it has been determined, there should be no problem, although the details are not very clear, but there is no problem with the real surname of the intelligence. The middle-aged man said.
"They move so fast and they are bold enough. Situ Biao muttered to himself, "Well, then do what you want, do it according to your wishes, do you pass on this news to Li Wufeng, we can only do this step, if he can't even cross this step, then I have nothing to say." By the way, how are you prepared for me to let you contact the Lang family?"
"The person sent has come back, and he has been linked to Yang Mubai, the first thinker of Lang Yongquan, this guy is the second person in Tiannan and has a lot of influence on Lang Yongquan, but this person's current attitude is still relatively ambiguous, and further communication is needed. The middle-aged man nodded.
"Alas, it's no wonder that our foundation is really poor, but we still have a chance, the hard work pays off, I think our efforts will always be rewarded. Although his expression was a little regretful, Situ Biao's eyes were full of confidence.
The meal was full of praise from several people present, Charlotte's combination of Beijing flavor and Jiangnan flavor made Wufeng and Angel and the girls all applaud, the fresh fragrance and light matching, the shade was suitable, and the few people present had a great appetite. At the insistence of Wu Feng, Charlotte also reluctantly joined the table of Wu Feng, and the praise of everyone made Charlotte, who has always been quiet and elegant, a little excited, after all, it is really an encouraging start to be praised by these people with different tastes here.
Wu Feng has even made up his mind, when he returns to the northwest after the Yanjing matter is over, no matter what way he thinks, he must bring Charlotte, such a beautiful woman with both beauty and cooking skills is not a treasure given to him by God, if he doesn't enjoy it well, wouldn't it be a tyrannical thing?!
Northwest County Qingyang Mansion City Festival Embassy Mansion. The two columns of majestic armor soldiers did not move in the still cold wind, or holding spears and forks, or pressing swords to draw shields, majestic and majestic. A gilded plaque of two zhang long and three feet wide hangs on the archway, and the nine big-character experts of the "Northwest County Military and Political Festival Embassy" will know at a glance that it is a famous person, and the style is extraordinary.
"Hey, why is it so lonely?" The brocade man who came to the door was a little puzzled when he saw the appearance in front of the door.
"Is there anything wrong with this gentleman?" a sergeant standing in front of the door noticed the man and walked out and asked, in a rather amiable manner.
"Oh, I wonder if Master Li is in the house?" asked the Jinyi man calmly.
"I don't know that this gentleman has a big name, if there is a post, he should be repaid for his humble duties. The sergeant was very vigilant and spoke without leakage.
Jinyi people are also a little hesitant, their mission is very secretive, and they must not leak the slightest rumor, but if they don't tell their identities in this situation, the other party will definitely not report it. While he was hesitating, a carriage stopped beside it.
"Cui Lie, what's the matter?" asked the sergeant as a man in a green shirt opened the glass window.
"Oh, Lord Xiao, this gentleman wants to find Master Li, but he refuses to tell his identity. When the sergeant saw the man in green shirt, he hurriedly saluted.
"Oh, looking for Master Li?" The man in green shirt was naturally Xiao Tang, he happened to pass by outside the mansion, and saw that the sergeant was negotiating with the man in brocade, so he asked by the way.
"You don't even want to say your identity, how can you see Master Li?" Xiao Tang felt that there must be something strange in the middle, so he got out of the car and asked, and the more than ten knights who followed behind also unsaddled and dismounted and followed.
"This is Lord Xiao of our Northwest County Administration Bureau, you still don't see the courtesy?" the sergeant hurriedly shouted when he saw that the brocade-clothed man was still not moving.
"Lord Xiao?" the Jinyi man had obviously heard of this name, "It's okay, then I'll meet this Lord Xiao first." ”
