Chapter 112: Deliberations in the court

"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?"

Zhou Zhen pondered: "This may not be the original intention of the eldest prince, maybe it is a plan of Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming." ”

Zhou Zhen smiled: "It seems that the eldest prince also has different purposes, hehe." The king has the desire of a king, and the vassals have the ambition of a minister. ”

He continued: "Li Yongbo's support for Yuan Yang is not really to help the latter seize the throne, but to help himself, if Yuan Yang becomes the king, Lanchen Wang Hong and Yuan Hai will be Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming's primary target. ”

In this way, Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming can use Yuan Yang's military power as the king to eliminate Lan Chen and Wang Hong. At that time, in the entire Xijin Dynasty, there were only two Wu Kings who were ignorant of the world, that is, Duan and Gongqing Wang. ”

"Hehe, if that's really the case, the world is Liu Tianming and Li Yongbo's. Tsk, that's a good calculation. ”

And the first task to achieve this calculation is to release Li Yongbo's army and contain or even eliminate the army of the third prince Yuan Zhang. In this way, Yuan Hai lost the support of the army, Lan Chen and Wang Hong were at their fingertips, even if King Gong helped him, it would be useless. ”

Yuan Hai, Bai Ling, and Duan were dumbfounded when they heard it, and Yuan Hai lost his voice and said: "What did you say?! Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming actually have a rebellious heart?! In this way, Li Yongbo cannot be allowed to go on the expedition!"

Paragraph laughed wildly in his heart, hahahaha, I can calculate Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming's calculations with a single piece of news, my vision is indeed right, follow him, there will definitely be a success!

Bai Ling asked out loud, "But... What if the siege of the three princes is true?

Zhou Zhen chuckled: "It's very simple, Li Yongbo first teamed up with the third prince to defend against the enemy, and then he was looking for an opportunity. ”

Yuan Hai's face was full of worry and worry, the third prince Yuan Zhang was now the only support of his army, and Yuan Zhang had always had an excellent relationship with him, he really couldn't bear to let anything happen to Yuan Zhang.

He asked: "Zhou Zhengongzi, just say it directly, what should we do now, do we want to support Li Yongbo on the expedition?"

The passage was also a little pondering, and said: "If you go on the expedition, Li Yongbo and Liu Tianming's strategy will succeed, and if you don't go on the expedition, the third prince will be in danger." Looking at it this way, it is a dilemma whether to go on an expedition or not. Well, what do you think?"

At this time, Bai Ling and the black-clothed guards were also looking forward to Zhou Zhen's answer, especially the black-clothed guards, who were still slightly suspicious of Zhou Zhen before, but when they heard Zhou Zhen's analysis, they were a little impressed by this young man, is this still a fourteen-year-old boy? Are you really sure that he is not an old monster who is over the age of sixties?

Zhou Zhen looked at the gazes projected by everyone, smiled faintly, and said: "You still have a little less calculation, that is, if you don't go on the expedition, the army of the third prince will be completely annihilated by the Junhua Kingdom, and then Yuan Benchu will definitely be furious with the former, and Li Yongbo will still lead the army to recapture Lishan City." ”

In other words, the expedition is already an inevitable result. ”

Yuan Hai was furious, slapped the banquet heavily, and said unconvinced: "Could it be that we can't do anything about letting Li Yong Bolong return to the sea like this?!"

Zhou Zhen smiled slightly: "Of course there is." That is, Li Yongbo suddenly fell seriously ill and was unable to lead the army to the battle, and then the second prince took over the military power and personally rescued the third prince Yuan Zhang. ”

When Yuan Hai heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile: "Hehe, Zhou Zhen Gongzi said that he was laughing, Li Yongbo is the body of a martial king, even if it is highly poisonous, it can't be poisoned, let alone a mere disease?"

Zhou Zhen smiled: "I naturally know this, just kidding." ”

Yuan Haidao: "At this time, I'm afraid that only Zhou Zhengongzi still has the heart to joke." ”

Zhou Zhen patted Yuan Hai on the shoulder and said, "Actually, there is no way, the second prince doesn't have to be like this with a bitter gourd face." ”

Yuan Hai was overjoyed: "Is there really a way? Hurry up, let's hear it." ”

Zhou Zhen pointed his finger at Lord Xu, who had died, and said with a smile: "What is the use of His Royal Highness the Second Prince to raise these ministers? Isn't Lord Xu also moving the heavens and the earth? Moreover, I think the second prince is not weaker than them in this regard, hehe." ”

Yuan Hai was stunned, his mind immediately turned, and he muttered: "Zhou Zhengongzi's meaning is to let me ...... in the court."

Zhou Zhen smiled and nodded.

Yuan Hai suddenly felt a lot of pressure, almost all of the previous battles with Yuan Yang were done by his subordinates, and now he has to go out in person... After speaking, it is inevitable that I will be a little nervous.

Then his eyes flashed with a glint and said, "Okay, now the competition is also getting hot, and as the head of the people, I should also set some examples!"

"Hehe, that's excellent, of course. ”

Bai Ling, who was on the side, also looked at Yuan Hai in surprise, and sighed in his heart: This His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it is really rare to have such a heroic spirit.

......

At this moment, the ministers from all walks of life who had returned home and were ready to rest also received news from Yuan Yilin one after another, saying that the Junhua Kingdom had crossed the Black Beast Mountain and attacked Wuliu Town in one day, Lishan City was besieged, and the King's Avenue was in an emergency.

The ministers also felt that something big was going to happen, and their brains began to spin very quickly, and then they wanted to get up and go to the second prince Yuan Hai's mansion again to discuss big things.

But as soon as he walked to the gate of the mansion, he received people sent by Yuan Hai, who said that the second prince had already made a decision on this matter, and you only need to wait until tomorrow to go to the court and watch the second prince's actions.

When the ministers first heard it, they were very surprised, when did the second prince grow up to the point where he could make decisions on his own?

Immediately, their hearts suddenly became enthusiastic, and the ethereal future in their eyes suddenly became clear at this moment.

Since His Royal Highness the Prince has made a decision, he naturally has his own certainty, and we as courtiers should move forward along the path of the lord.

Thinking of this, the ministers went back to the study to read, they knew that tomorrow in the court, the second prince must have high hopes for them, and they didn't want to drag the second prince back.

......

The next day, the Golden Dragon City Palace, above the court.

Yuan Benchu said lightly: "How to deal with this matter, Zhong Aiqing let's talk about it." ”

The eldest prince Yuan Yang stood up first, and he said: "Father, Erchen feels that the national strength of the Junhua Kingdom is far from enough to be able to cross the Black Beast Mountain, and he also broke through Wuliu Town in one day, and even besieged Lishan City, this is simply a fantasy, out of nothing. Presumably, it was the false news released by the Junhua Kingdom that lured our army out of the national capital, and then they could point their fingers at the Golden Dragon City. ”

Yuan Benchu's eyes narrowed slightly, he felt that it was very reasonable, and nodded.

At this time, a military general also said: "Your Majesty, the last general knows the art of war very well, and as the saying goes, soldiers are not tired of deceit, this must be a plan of the small military country, if the king thinks it is hateful, the last general is willing to lead the army and destroy the small military country!"

Yuan Benchu smiled when he heard it, and he didn't care.

The second prince also smiled and said: "General Anji is brave and invincible, and the people of Junhua are afraid that they will be frightened when they see it." ”

General Anji heard a prince compliment him, and said proudly, "Hmph!

Yuan Haidao: "But what if this military order is true? You know, it is the people of my royal family who are besieged." ”

What he said was also what everyone was worried about, and the audience was silent for a while.

Then, another military general also said loudly: "Second Prince, I know that His Royal Highness the Third Prince and you have a deep relationship with the sea, but you are still young and not qualified enough to have such a view about the military family, but this is related to the fate of the family and the country, how can it be handled so casually, it must be considered in the long run." ”

In fact, this general's heart was also full of nervousness, because as long as he came out to oppose the second prince, it was equivalent to doing it against the second prince, but he was forced by his boss Li Yongbo and the eldest prince, and he had to offend the second prince.

The second prince ignored this person's words, and said with a straight face: "Father, is it important to take the time to verify the authenticity of a military order, or is it important for your third son and Jiangshan Sheji?"

He looked at the generals and continued: "If Lishan City is not protected, the King's Avenue will fall immediately, and the Junhua Kingdom will be able to attack the Golden Dragon City within half a month, and at that time, the country will change hands, and these generals can still serve the new master again, and what about you, Father?"

When everyone in the court heard this, they suddenly didn't dare to speak again, what this touched was a great crime of rebellion.

And now the various ministers on Yuan Hai's side are overjoyed in their hearts, if it is only a battle of words, they are much more powerful than these reckless people. They also seemed to understand Yuan Hai's purpose, and they all began to calculate in their hearts.

Yuan Yang was also silent, he was not sure that he would be able to stop the army from going out, things had developed to this point, he was also going to give up, anyway, it was Li Yongbo's army that went out, what were you afraid of?

It's just that if you can delay some time and let those people in the Junhua Kingdom destroy Yuan Zhang, it would be even better, and these would also make it easier for Li Yongbo, and he only needed to deal with the people in the Junhua Kingdom.

If he set out immediately, Li Yongbo would have to deal with the Junhua Kingdom and have to go back to deal with Yuan Zhang, which would be more difficult.

Yuan Yang snorted coldly in his heart: "If you go out on the expedition, you will go on the expedition, and when the Junhua Kingdom is solved, Yuan Zhang's side will also be killed, and when the time comes, it will be said that the third brother was martyred in the war, hmph, the result is not the same, the military you rely on will still be destroyed by me in the end." ”
