Chapter 111: Sudden Accidents

Zhou Zhen smiled, looked at Yuan Hai, who was silent with his head bowed, and said, "Your Royal Highness, don't forget, although you are a royal family and have a high status, no matter how he says it, he is also your father." No matter how powerful your subordinates are, he will always be the one who determines whether you are the rightful crown prince or not. ”

Yuan Hai smiled bitterly, sighed, and said, "Hehe, yes, he is my father." ”

Bai Ling said loudly at this time: "Zhou Zhen Gongzi may not know that the officials under the eldest prince Yuan Yang have been urging the king to appoint Yuan Yang as the crown prince recently. They've already begun to force the palace. ”

Bai Ling's eyes grew cold, and he said, "Now, the longer the king is alive, the more unfavorable it will be to the second prince." ”

Yuan Hai was also lonely at this time, and said: "According to Sister Yilin, Li Yongbo and Yan Hanyang advocated that the eldest brother poisoned his father. Didn't Zhou Zhen Gongzi find out that although his father was old and frail, he was not so energetic, and his father was already tired after the banquet started. ”

The paragraph exclaimed: "You mean, the eldest prince poisoned his father?

Zhou Zhen said calmly: "The pros and cons are all in His Royal Highness the Prince's view of the situation. If handled well, the weakness can also be reversed. ”

Yuan Hai was overjoyed, grabbed Zhou Zhen's hand excitedly, and said: "If Zhou Zhen's son can help me win the throne, I can not only ensure the prosperity of the Zhou family for a hundred years, but also... It's okay, I can marry Sister Yilin to you!"

Zhou Zhen: "......"

"I'm going to tell you!!!"

Yuan Hai was stunned, could it be that Zhou Zhen still felt that Sister Yilin was not worthy of being his wife? So he continued: "I understand! Although Sister Yilin is as beautiful as a flower, after all, she is a member of the royal family, she is pampered, and her personality is as cold as frost, and her forehead is ...... In this way, if Zhou Zhen Gongzi has a crush on other women, he can tell me, I will definitely be able to arrange this matter, and Sister Yilin can also marry Zhou Zhen Gongzi as a concubine. ”

Zhou Zhenhe was drenched in cold sweat when he heard the paragraph, this Yuan Hai actually gave his own sister as a gift for the sake of royal power, and he could really compare with his eldest brother.

Zhou Zhen wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Forget about this matter, I yearn for eternity, let's talk about business first." ”

Bai Ling looked at Yuan Hai, revealing a look of disgust, obviously disdainful of Yuan Hai's behavior.

After a few breaths, Zhou Zhen finally came to his senses, and then said: "Presumably, His Royal Highness the Second Prince himself knows in his heart that even if you really win the orthodox heir, not to mention Yuan Yang, even Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming and others will not stop there." ”

Yuan Hai smiled bitterly: "This is not only me, I'm afraid they have already made plans for this." If I take the throne, they will definitely think that I will deal with them as soon as I take the throne, so I guess they will fight to the death, and if they win, they will snatch the throne from my phone. ”

Although the paragraph never asks about the government, he naturally understands the stakes after a long time in the shopping mall, and said: "What are you afraid of, if you can't get there, you will really fight with them, anyway, in the end, you will have to solve the problem by force." ”

Yuan Hai laughed dryly and said, "Big brother Chongwu, maybe he won't care." But I'm a scholar, if I do something to kill my brother and seize power, I'm afraid it will be stinking for 10,000 years. ”

Zhou Zhen disagreed, chuckled, and said lightly: "What Master Duan said is right, whether it is His Royal Highness the Second Prince or Yuan Yang winning the orthodox heir, at the last moment, there will still be a big battle, and they will fight without scruples, because they know that history can only be written by the victors." ”

Zhou Zhen said: "If His Royal Highness the Second Prince wins the throne, at that time, they will say that the Second Prince Yuan Hai has tampered with the holy decree without permission and is plotting against him. If they take the throne, they will say that you are trying to usurp the throne, and he has to kill his brother to stabilize the country. ”

When Yuan Hai heard this, he looked bitter and sighed: "It is born from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other." ”

Bai Ling persuaded and said: "In all the dynasties of the Xijin Dynasty, the competition for the throne is like this, Your Highness doesn't have to sigh. ”

Yuan Hai shook his head, noncommittal, and asked, "Now, Tongwen Pavilion Lanchen, Prime Minister Wang Hong, and the Nicheng Wen family support me, and the military has a third brother on my side." On the eldest brother's side, there are Liu Tianming, Li Yongbo and Yan Hanyang. Li Yongbo's army was even more powerful. I've dealt with everything, but I'm still in a weak position overall. What do you think about the current situation?"

Zhou Zhen's face was still calm, and he said, "Did you forget the second prince? With the help of the Wizards' Guild, even without the Third Prince, we wouldn't be left behind. ”

Yuan Hai said with a dry smile: "I almost forgot about Hua Naichuan's predecessors, but although the strength of the army has been reversed because of this, in terms of high-end combat effectiveness, the combination of Liu Tianming, Li Yongbo and Yan Hanyang is much stronger than Lan Chen, Wang Hong and the Wen family." ”

Zhou Zhen said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince forgot again, I also said that there is more than one person who is more powerful than King Gongqing." ”

"Oh, who else?" Yuan Hai said curiously, Dao saw Zhou Zhen's suddenly unhappy expression, and then retracted his curiosity, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Hehe, it seems that I have a lot of mouths again." I really don't have a good memory. Okay, then I won't ask any more questions and let Zhou Zhen Gongzi be fully responsible. ”

Zhou Zhen's face turned around at this time.

At this moment, a black-clothed guard suddenly ran from outside, and it seemed that something extremely urgent was going on.

"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, something is wrong! Lishan City!" The black-clothed guard spoke quickly, very hurriedly. But when he saw the two strangers in Zhouzhen's passage, he hesitated again.

Yuan Hai's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said unhappily: "I haven't seen the guests here, I am panicked, what kind of system is it!"

However, Yuan Hai secretly thought in his heart, Lishan City, that is where the third brother's garrison is, could it be that what happened?

Then Yuan Haicai said: "Say, what's wrong with Lishan City?"

The black-clothed guard looked at Zhou Zhenhe and Duan, his expression was slightly hesitant, and he thought that it seemed that the young man and the old man should be the second prince's cronies, and then said: "Ten days ago, there was a war in the west, and the Junhua Kingdom suddenly crossed the border and launched a fierce attack, and I was attacked in one day towards Wuliu Town, and Belvedere was also lost, and the third prince led the army to defend Lishan City and was besieged, and the King's Avenue was in an emergency!"

Yuan Hai's face was gloomy: "Ten days ago?!Why did what happened ten days ago not report it now?!"

"His Royal Highness the Third Prince's army, many of them used to be the eldest prince's people, so the news reached the eldest prince's ears as soon as possible, so... So ......"

Yuan Hai was furious and said, "Yuan Yang! It's Yuan Yang again! Once Lishan City is broken, the King's Avenue will fall, and you will be able to attack Golden Dragon City within half a month, don't you understand such a stake?!"

"Could it be that in order to seize power, he even completely ignored these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!? If the rivers and mountains are gone, what is the use of taking this royal power?!"

The black-clothed guard was also in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, don't worry, Princess Yilin has already known about it at this time, presumably this matter will be discussed in the imperial court tomorrow." ”

Yuan Hai said with a calm face: "Hmph, with my father's suspicious character, by the time he decides, I'm afraid that Lishan City has been broken, and the third brother may also ...... Hmph, if something happens to the third brother, I will definitely not let you go, Yuan Yang!"

Bai Ling comforted: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince doesn't have to worry too much, Lishan City has always been known for being easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the generals under the command of the Third Prince are all fierce generals of the first generation, and the Junhua Kingdom will not be able to break it for a while." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Hai's anger sank slightly, and said: "But to be able to break through Wuliu Town in one day, the Junhua Kingdom has sent at least 900,000 troops, and there must be masters in the army, no matter how powerful the third brother is, I'm afraid he won't be able to stand it for long." Besides, that was ten days ago. ”

Yuan Hai looked helpless and said, "Now I can only wait for tomorrow's court and my father's statement." However, we must take all precautions in advance, and if my father agrees to lead the army, I guess Li Yongbo will push it again and again, and if that is the case, what should we do?"

Yuan Hai looked at Zhou Zhen, obviously asking Zhou Zhen's opinion. This move shocked the black-clothed guards on the side, who is this kid? Even this kind of family and country affairs, the second prince has to ask his opinion?

Zhou Zhen was full of puzzlement from just now, Wuliu Town? Isn't that the town where he met Chu Wuyun in the eastern part of the Black Beast Mountain? Where is the Black Beast Mountain!

It would take at least a few months to cross the Black Beast Mountain, and this time was enough for the third prince to know, right? How could it still be captured in one day? With an army of 900,000 troops, could it do this? Absolutely impossible!

Then, it is clear that there are at least four Martial King-level powerhouses in the army, or there is a strong army of magicians.

However, how could there be so many strong people in a mere military kingdom, a small kingdom with barren land and no? If there really is, it is not just a median kingdom by now, right?

So, Zhou Zhen asked with some hesitation: "Could this be fake news? A Junhua Kingdom should not have such a powerful army that dares to cross the Black Beast Mountain, it is obviously looking for death, and it will also break through Wuliu Town within a day, right? This is extremely difficult for the Xijin Dynasty, let alone the Junhua Kingdom?"

When Yuan Hai heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "What does Zhou Zhen Gongzi mean by this? Are you saying that this news was deliberately released by the eldest brother? But what is this for? If my father really agrees to lead the army to the battle, only General Li can have the strength to support it. ”

Bai Ling also heard it and said, "Yes, if Li Yongbo leads the army to the battle, the army on the eldest prince's side will be far away from the court, isn't this good news for them?"
