Chapter 073: Left out in the cold
"I don't know ...... king"
Xiao Yi was very helpless, more heartache.
In fact, from that day he was forced to go to the fiefdom, and when he set off with hatred, Xiao Cheng did not send him, and then in Duanguo, he wrote to Xiao Cheng several times, but he did not get a reply, but the letter to the queen was responded to every time. The smart Xiao Yi already understood what was going on.
Some brotherhood is just a face-to-face friendship, at that time, the queen favored Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi had Duan Zhaoyi, the mother who was the princess of Qi State, as the backing, although she was not favored by the saints, but in the end she still had a status better than Xiao Cheng.
Xiao Cheng was fostered in the queen's palace at the time, and he always knew that he was not biological, and he always felt that he was much worse than other brothers.
The royal family has no brothers, this is an eternal law.
It's just that every time he thinks of the fifth brother who reads and writes with him, Xiao Yi still can't help but feel sad.
This time, the matter about Xiao Cheng in the secret report was already expected by Xiao Yi.
He just didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it.
"Hey, that's it, the children of ordinary families also compete for things, let alone the royal family. The five princes have been living in Kyoto City, and they are inevitably contaminated with the aura of power in Kyoto City, so the king should not go to his heart. I really care about this affection too much, so I'll reason with him after returning to Kyoto City. After all, there is some affection, and it will not be too stiff. ”
Sun Tingyu saw that Xiao Yi was a little sad, and comforted him softly.
Xiao Yi is not a person who is immersed in fearless feelings and can't extricate himself.
He took a deep breath and continued: "Our spies also found out that this assassination was not done by the Hunan side. The whereabouts of this king are because there are people who are in harmony with the outside. The current deployment of Duanguo and the deployment of the army were all presented to his father by the king through the recital, so the remnants of the Hunan State were repeatedly cleared, but they could not be wiped out, and they even lost many times, all because of this. ”
Zhan Xiao frowned: "The official letter is to be inspected by the Dragon Army, and the fifth prince is in charge of the military affairs of the Dragon Army." ”
Inside and outside the city of Kyoto, Dachu is divided into the Imperial Dragon Army and the Imperial Forest Army, the Imperial Forest Army is in charge of the affairs of the palace, and the Imperial Dragon Army is the position of guarding the imperial city.
Xiao Cheng was appointed as the leader of the Dragon Army. This is not a position to be proud of for a noble prince, but Xiao Cheng's own qualifications are mediocre, he is the ability of a lord to defend the city, and being the leader of the Dragon Army is already his best destination.
"Now that I think about it, the fifth brother was the leader of the Dragon Army back then, and Pang Meiren helped to make peace. Come to think of it, since then, the Pang Mei clan has already planned to use the fifth brother. ”
Even though he knew that Xiao Cheng was harming himself, Xiao Yi still screamed one by one.
In his heart, even if Xiao Cheng made him feel cold, he couldn't give up this brother.
"There is the Dragon Army, inside and outside the Imperial City, there are people who are full of Pang Meiren. Xiao Yu's connections in the DPRK are becoming more and more extensive, and his strength is gradually becoming stronger, if he doesn't do anything, I'm afraid the situation will be even more difficult in the future......"
Zhan Xiao was very worried.
The reward ceremony should have had Xiao Yi's share, but he inexplicably received a holy decree not to return to Beijing.
Most of this is also the credit of Yu and Lian.
If they don't take any more measures, they will inevitably control the court, so that Xiao Yi will never have the opportunity to return to Kyoto.
If one of the two gets the throne, then Xiao Yi will only have to wait for death in Duanguo.
The Dragon Protector is the key.
It is like a huge net that separates the entire city of Kyoto from the outside world. At the beginning, Emperor Chu asked Xiao Cheng to do it, also considering that he was a simple-minded person, although he had no talent, he was also an honest man.
However, the more honest a person is, the easier it is to be taken advantage of.
With the Dragon Army in the middle, Xiao Yi cut off the connection with Kyoto City. The spies arranged in Kyoto, without exception, were all sealed in the city. And Xiao Yi's situation on his side could not be notified to Kyoto City in time.
The most terrifying thing is that whatever Xiao Yi said to Emperor Chu, the content in the excerpt can be intercepted, so that it can be said to be fatal to Xiao Yi.
Yu Lian and the others would only let Emperor Chu hear what they wanted him to hear, which was probably the main reason why Xiao Yi failed to participate in the reward ceremony.
Fortunately, before the situation developed to the point of no return, Xiao Yi sent his most powerful spy to investigate, otherwise, it would be impossible to pass on the situation in Kyoto City to break through the encirclement.
Yulian's plan is obvious, just to make him unable to control the situation in Kyoto City. Let Xiao Yi be in the country, harassed by the remnants of the Hunan State in the front, and killed each other by brothers in the back, Xiao Yi was alone in the country, without the support of Emperor Chu, and suffered from the enemy on his back, one day, he would die in an accident that they had carefully planned.
When the time comes, he will be buried with the highest etiquette of a martyred prince, and if a person dies, who will be held accountable, who is behind the scenes, and who will account for it, whether it is a tragedy caused by the brothers' wall.
Sun Tingyu coughed lightly and said, "King, General Zhan, you don't have to be so pessimistic. Now that we've caught the movement of the inner demons, we can wipe them out with a little strategy. Zhu Tai's whereabouts are the most important thing, and if we catch Zhu Tai, we can go back to Kyoto City to resume our lives and take his head, who can stop the king? As long as our feet can step on the threshold of Kyoto City, when the time comes, we can plan anything. ”
"My father did say that if you catch Zhu Tai, you can return to the court. Xiao Yi's eyes darkened: "But this king also knows that it is just a prevarication for him to temporarily stabilize me." Zhu Tai is the best tactical guy in Xiang, and the emperor of Xiangguo treats him as a treasure and calls him Xiao Zhuge . Although Zhu Tai's spiritual power is not superior, he has won in many ways, and several times, we have suffered a lot of losses from him. Even General Long has fallen for his tricks. The father was determined that the king would definitely not catch him, so he used this way to stop the king from returning to the dynasty. Even if he is lucky enough to catch Zhu Tai, come to think of it, my father will have other things waiting for this king......"
Xiao Yi is very self-aware and knows what kind of status he has in the heart of Emperor Chu. He did not pin his hopes of returning to the dynasty on this already slim matter.
Because Duan Zhaoyi, the current Empress Dowager Duan, was not liked by Emperor Chu, Xiao Yi was snubbed since he was a child.
He has a heart for the world, a lot of talent, and a heart full of ambition.
But even people like Xiao Cheng and Xiao Lian can be reused, but he has to be assigned to Duanguo, a chaotic and dangerous place.
At that time, Duanguo was the junction of the Chuxiang battlefield, and there were soldiers everywhere and fighting everywhere.
Xiao Yi died nine times, almost died several times, and how many open guns and hidden arrows he dodged, even he couldn't count himself.
Thinking of the pain he and his mother and brother had suffered, Xiao Yi couldn't help but jump violently.
