Chapter Seventy-Two: Brothers Against Brothers
After all, although Li Hao is involved in some things now, the overall context of this world has not changed much, especially about the three princes and the Marquis of Xiaoyue, Li Hao has not operated anything from it.
As for Ling Budo here, he and the three princes have a life-saving kindness after all, thinking that even if he sees that the crown prince is showing signs of improvement, so he doesn't want to participate in the matter of the third prince seizing the heir, but as long as the three princes are invited, he will always have to give an explanation.
In this case, as long as the crown prince can be brought over smoothly, let him hear the conspiracy of the third prince and Xiao Yuehou.
Not to mention that he was reborn once, but it always made him feel a sense of crisis, so that the prince could be more active and cooperate with himself to transform him, and the province was usually like a salted fish.
And even if the prince doesn't go over, Li Hao himself will go, after all, Ling Budo has nothing to do with Cheng Shaoshang now, if Cheng Shaoshang breaks in by mistake again, he may not be able to maintain it again.
In case he was killed by Xiao Yuehou, it would be really a big bad.
Of course, it's okay to call Cheng Shaoshang back directly, anyway, it's okay to have one audience without her, but in order to have an excuse that looks like that, Li Hao didn't do it.
Instead, he first sent someone to the camp to find out where Yuan Shen was now, and then as long as he leaked Cheng Shaoshang's whereabouts, and then told Cheng Shaoshang and Wang Ji what they had argued about before, Yuan Shen would definitely catch up along the road.
As long as Li Hao is by the prince's side and reveals some gossip a little, it should not be rare to attract the prince's interest in following and seeing.
After all, no matter what era it is, no matter what identity it is, most people are very interested in gossip and anecdotes, especially a famous talent like Yuan Shen.
But just in case, if Yuan Shen is not found, or Yuan Shen is dragged by something, he can't come.
Li Hao also secretly ordered someone to chase after him, and then he tried to find a way to make some noise near the Yanhui Tower, so Li Hao could also lead the prince forward under the pretext.
It's just that in this way, the human traces are a little heavy, maybe the prince won't pay attention to anything when he is angry, but if the third prince really investigates it, he may not find any clues.
If the third prince realizes that someone is deliberately doing this, then he will definitely not be able to get rid of the relationship with the prince in the past, and he is still a little jealous of the third prince Li Hao, more than one thing is better than one less.
But fortunately, after Cheng Shaoshang disappeared, Yuan Shen had been looking for Cheng Shaoshang in the crowd to run away.
Then he heard about Cheng Shaoshang's whereabouts, and he didn't bother to ask carefully, so he chased along the road.
At this time, the prince had been pulled out of the camp by Li Hao, standing outside and watching the mountains full of spring, even in order to allow the prince to stay outside for more time.
Li Hao had to do another copy, and found a few ancient poems describing the mountains to help the prince have a good life.
In fact, after so many years of studying, Li Hao actually wrote ordinary poems himself, but it may be the reason why he received exam-oriented education in his first life, so his thinking is somewhat solidified, so the poems he wrote are a little too ordinary, and he really doesn't take it well.
And the prince is different, although Li Hao doesn't think much of his level of handling affairs, but his ability to write poetry is indeed stronger than Li Hao.
This forced Li Hao to pick up the text of the Duke again, a job he didn't want to do, so as to attract the prince to stay outside.
In fact, Li Hao's plan was indeed successful, not only keeping the crown prince behind, but also letting him see Yuan Shen galloping away on horseback.
When the prince saw this scene, he unsurprisingly asked Li Hao, "Seeing that today's hurried appearance is very different from the past, do you say that something is wrong, or let someone ask."
Seeing that the prince took the bait, Li Hao immediately deliberately laughed and said, "Don't worry about him, he is suffering from lovesickness, and now he should be going to find someone, I just said how I saw a familiar figure just now, it turned out to be her."
As soon as these words came out, the prince immediately became interested: "Oh, Shanjian actually has a favorite person, if this is spread, I don't know how many little girls in the capital will be heartbroken.
I just don't know
Who is this girl, and what special thing can fascinate the good see, I have seen it before."
[In view of the general environment,
Li Hao replied: "She has never entered the palace to meet her before, I think she should not have seen her when she came to her, as for her special, maybe only my brother himself knows."
But it's true that my brother was fascinated by him, and some time ago my family didn't hold a plum banquet, and at the banquet my brother asked my mother to express his thoughts on marriage.
You also know how popular my brother is, and his parents agree to this after hearing it, but she herself is not very willing.
In the end, her parents had no choice but to refuse the matter, but my brother was desperate to give up, and he was still entangled."
Li Hao actually wanted to arouse the prince's curiosity, as long as he was interested, then Li Hao could encourage him to catch up and have a look.
But who knew that after hearing these words, the prince seemed to feel something, and said: "Then this little girl is really special, she can work hard for her marriage, I might as well do it, if I had ...... at the beginning."
Before he finished speaking, the prince saw that Li Hao's face beside him suddenly turned dark, and his entire aura became a little cold.
To tell the truth, although the prince didn't finish his words, how could Li Hao not hear the meaning.
After all, he and the crown princess have been married for many years, and in such a long time, how could he not be aware of the true face of the crown princess, so it is normal to regret the decision he made back then.
If it weren't for the fact that the other protagonist of this matter is now his daughter-in-law, Li Hao might have encouraged the prince to abolish the current crown princess and then bravely pursue love.
But the problem is not working now, Li Hao can't bear that someone has an attempt on his daughter-in-law, even if he just thinks about it.
When the prince saw this scene, he also understood that his words were wrong, and immediately explained: "Ziyang, don't misunderstand, now that things have passed for so many years, I am already relieved.
It's just the matter of the crown princess, I think you should have heard of some of it, even if you are a prince, there are always unsatisfactory times, and there is an occasional sigh."
What the prince said is reasonable, in fact, according to Li Hao's personal contact with the prince, as well as the description of the plot of the TV series, there is a great probability that he is unintentional today.
But there is no way, who told Li Hao to be cautious in this matter, so Li Hao plans to find a way to try this guy again.
If it was really as he said, Li Hao would continue to help him, but if this guy harbored evil intentions, Li Hao planned to sell him directly.
Anyway, Emperor Wen has three sons, so it's a big deal to find a way to pull the crown prince and the third prince into the fire pit, and then pull the five princes out.
Although this is indeed quite difficult to operate, after all, the five princes have no foundation in the court, but Li Hao, who has not gnawed on similar hard bones in the past.
If it gets to the point where you can't win by being stronger, then find a way to change your thinking and just compare it to bad.
If you really can't pull the five princes here, then pull the other two people into the mud pit, anyway, it's easier to pull people into the stinky water and mud than to teach people how to get better.
Regarding what Li Hao thought on his side, the prince naturally didn't know, otherwise he was afraid that he would definitely have the intention to shoot Li Hao to death directly, after all, he just said something casually, why should he be so careful.
At this time, he still looked at Li Hao who had not spoken, and he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, so he coughed a few times dryly, and after attracting Li Hao's attention, he said:
"It's good to see that it's still going very fast, and now I can't see anyone, it seems that this is really a little anxious."
At this time, Li Hao had already come back to his senses, so he took the initiative to lead the topic to the topic, although he was surprised by the prince's words just now, but the wild goose still had to go back to the tower.
After all, whether it is to let the crown prince rise up, or to dig a pit for him and let him break with the third prince, it is a necessary step.
"That's true, that's not as good as me and too
Let's go over and see what the characters the prince also admires will be like."
Hearing this, the prince's first feeling was that Li Hao was sarcastic about himself, and immediately explained: "What does Ziyang mean by this, I really said it unintentionally just now."
"I know, but it doesn't affect us from watching the excitement, could it be that Your Highness the ladder has a problem with yourself." Li Hao replied.
Well, as soon as these words came out, it was really difficult for the prince to refuse again, otherwise wouldn't he admit that he was empty-hearted.
I had to order someone to prepare two fast horses, and then simply brought a few with me, anyway, Tu Gaoshan is now surrounded by a large number of tigers and feather forests guarding, and there is no problem with safety.
And this time I went to see the excitement, and it was not easy to bring too many people, and it was not good to say it.
In order to catch up with Cheng Shaoshang and Yuan Shen as soon as possible, several people galloped for a while, and after seeing the wild goose returning to the tower, Li Hao took the initiative to stop the horses.
When the prince saw this, he asked, "Isn't it that you haven't seen anyone yet, so stop and do something now."
Li Hao replied: "Since you want to see the excitement, you naturally can't let them know, and if you go any further, the movement will be too big.
Isn't there a tower in front of this, I guess they should be watching from the tower, so let's go in and have a look.
And even if they're not there, we can watch the excitement directly from the tower."
In fact, before he caught up with Cheng Shaoshang here, Li Hao already had some drums in his heart, after all, if Cheng Shaoshang broke into the Yanhui Tower first.
The three princes and Ling Budo must have been vigilant, and naturally they would not stay there to talk in the future, and even Cheng Shaoshang might be in danger.
I only hope that Yuan Shen can follow Cheng Shaoshang, so it is estimated that he can still protect Cheng Shaoshang, after all, whether it is Yuan Shen's identity or skills, it can always make them a little jealous.
But in any case, you have to go and have a look first, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
The prince didn't really want to come, but since Li Hao was going to stop here, he didn't care.
So all the people dismounted, and then left one of their relatives to stay here to watch the horses, and the rest went to the tower of the wild goose together.
When he arrived at the tower gate, Li Hao noticed that although the tower gate was closed now, looking at the mark in front of the door, it was obvious that it had just been opened and closed.
It seems that no one has left yet, otherwise if you leave in a hurry, then it is estimated that no one will close the door carefully.
So either Cheng Shaoshang hasn't come in yet, maybe he was found by Yuan Shen halfway, and then the two of them didn't know where else they went.
Either Cheng Shaoshang has come in, but he has not been discovered by others, and everyone is still waiting on the tower, so either is good news for Li Hao.
Pushing open the tower door, everyone walked into it one after another, and the first floor was naturally empty, and then everyone climbed up the stairs.
At this time, the prince can be regarded as resigned to his fate, anyway, he is here, so he can climb high and look far away, even if he can't see the excitement, he can enjoy the surrounding scenery.
And as everyone gradually climbed, Li Hao became more and more confident in his heart, it seems that Cheng Shaoshang really didn't come, and there should only be three people on it: the third prince, Xiao Yuehou and Ling Budo.
It wasn't until they reached the sixth floor that everyone was still about to continue upward, only to hear a voice faintly coming from above: "East Palace...... Impotent...... Waste storage ...... It's imperative."
During this time, the words were intermittent, and it was very unreal, but Li Hao knew that these few words alone were enough.
The crown prince knew that there were many people in the court who were dissatisfied with him, and he also knew that someone must be secretly discussing the abolition of the prince.
If you see an ordinary official today, maybe with the character of the prince, you can really laugh it off.
But if this person is the third prince and his younger brother, then the situation will be very different, at least emotionally, the prince will definitely not be able to accept it.
However, what Li Hao didn't expect was that when the prince reached this point, he didn't rush up directly, but stopped, and it seemed that there was a downward trend.
This made Li Hao speechless, himself
The situation that has been worked so hard to create cannot be abandoned halfway.
Since the Son of Heaven doesn't want to go up by himself, let the people above take the initiative to come down.
So Li Hao quietly took out a coin, and then let go of the empty stairs and let him fall.
This sound immediately alarmed the person who spoke above, and even if there was action, the prince's side also stopped moving at this time.
After all, he took the initiative to avoid it because he had an evasive character, anyway, over the years, as long as he made a mistake, someone would send him to Emperor Wen's recital, and he was used to it.
So I didn't take it seriously when I met him this time, I just thought it was the officials who wanted to save easily, here***.
But now that everyone is coming down, it will really be an escape if they want to leave again, so the nature has changed, so the prince is standing here waiting for them.
Xiao Yuehou, who was the first to come down, was not surprised that there was him in this group, and the prince was not surprised at all.
But the second person who came down really made the prince's face change greatly and tremble.
Of course, when the two of them came down, they saw that it was the prince who heard their conversation, and their faces were not good.
Although Xiao Yuehou wants Emperor Wen's mind to be easy to store, there are many people in the capital who know it, but they can operate it behind their backs.
Now that he has fallen in front of the prince, he is still a little nervous.
After all, no matter how much Xiaoyue Marquis Pingsu said that the prince was cowardly and incompetent, but after all, he had been sitting in the position of the prince for more than ten years, even if he was weak, he still had a little bit of power.
However, the crown prince obviously didn't have the time to pay attention to Xiao Yuehou, and at this time, his eyes were firmly fixed on the second person who came down, and the pain in his eyes was almost overflowing.
