Chapter 385: The Situation in the Royal Court
Next, Tuoba Yu told the two about the situation in the royal court over the years.
Thirty years ago, the old Khan died, and the current Great Khan was only in his early tens, so the prime minister was appointed as a trusted minister.
The Prime Minister became more and more powerful in the process of auxiliary government, which frightened the Great Khan, so he supported his cousin Wuming to become the national teacher, and gradually expanded Wuming's power.
Wu Ming's family has served as the royal court teacher for generations, but during the reign of the old Khan, he was attacked by the old Khan because of suspicion of rebellion and was destroyed, but the queen was safe and sound, and the queen's son still succeeded to the throne. Wu Ming was young at the time, and he was lucky to get out and wandered on the grassland with his loyal servant Li Jun, because he was good at worshipping the gods and resolving various disputes, and accumulated a certain amount of contacts and prestige.
The Great Khan King found Wuming back and reused it to contend with the Prime Minister, but he never thought that the Prime Minister was old and died suddenly.
Wuming's power is too great, and it has formed a trend that the tail will not fall. The Great Khan had to appoint the son of the old prime minister, Mooni, as the new prime minister.
However, the important reason why the old Khan entrusted the orphan to the prime minister is that the prime minister is old and his son is young. When the old minister died, Mooney was not yet twenty years old, and neither his prestige nor connections were enough to compete with Wuming.
The Tuoba family in the court of the Golden Horde was a member of the Great Wei royal family, who fled to the grassland because of the failure to compete for the throne. At that time, the Golden Horde was still strong, the right horde was not captured by the Pure Land Sect, and the left horde was not completely controlled by the Ashina sect, so the contemporary Khan king had the idea of going south to destroy the Great Wei, and reused these Tuoba people, hoping to elect a puppet emperor from this branch after destroying the Great Wei.
Over the centuries, the Tuoba family intermarried with the Khan family for many generations, and it became a major family within the Golden Horde. For generations, he has served as the royal court and Tudoufa. When Yang Qi hunted and killed the Great Wei royal family, he did not attack these Tuoba people who defected to the grassland.
Although the Tuoba family is dissatisfied with Wuming, they are also the Liangzi of many generations with the Prime Minister's family, so they are not willing to cooperate closely with Mooney to deal with Wuming.
After listening to this, Wu Feng thought that his mother was from the Tuoba family, and he and the Tuoba brothers were even a little related. But his life experience can't be said casually.
Xue Xiyan looked at Tuoba Yu: "May I ask Brother Tuoba Brother, is it the intention of Brother Ling or Your Excellency to form an alliance with us?"
Tuoba Yu wondered: "Is there any difference?"
Xue Xiyan was sitting in a green shirt at this time, with a dignified expression: "It is related to the formulation of the entire plan, as well as the distribution of benefits thereafter." β
It's a vague statement, but it's conceivable.
Sure enough, Tuoba Yu's eyes showed a different color, and then said, "This is my opinion." It took a lot of talking to my brother to make him think that working with you would be a win-win situation. β
Xue Xiyan said lightly and skillfully, and then found out that although Tuoba Yu was pretending to be loyal to Wuming, there was also a gap between him and his brother.
This is perfectly normal. Even if Tuoba Mo defeated Wu Ming, Tuoba Yu was only a second-in-one person at most, and he could not become the number one minister of the royal court.
Tuoba Yu said again: "When the peace agreement was just signed, I revealed part of Wuming's news to my brother and asked him to take advantage of Wuming's weakest moment. But he didn't dare to give it a go...... Probably there was no such resourceful person as the two to help make the plan, and now the two of them have come. It couldn't be better. β
Wu Feng shook his head: "Brother Ling didn't choose to do it at that time, it's right." Even if it is successful, it is not good. β
Tuoba Yu's face showed a look of surprise.
Wu Feng smiled and said: "The death of the old minister made Wuming sit big. After the Battle of Huifeng Valley, Wuming was indeed extremely weak and in an awkward position. If you take this opportunity to stage a coup d'Γ©tat and kill Wuming, it is not impossible. But in that case, who will sit big?"
Tuoba Yu was stunned for a moment, and then understood.
Wu Feng said again: "Among the three forces. Brother Ling is the weakest, and even if he kills Wuming, he will make Mooney sit big. At the same time, the Great Khan will be jealous of Brother Ling, the benefits will go to others, and the hatred will go to himself, who will do this kind of thing?"
"But now it's different. Wu Ming received the support of the Ashina Sect and the Divine Sky Dao Dragon Aotian, and made unprecedented achievements, and his strength swelled suddenly, and he already had the strength to usurp the throne. If either side gets rid of Wuming, they will be the great benefactor of the Khan King and will become the next number one minister......"
Tuoba Yu's eyes lit up: "If you want to deal with Wuming, it's better to kill him directly." However, now that Wuming's reputation has surged, and his strength has skyrocketed, it is not easy to get rid of him. β
Wu Feng said with great certainty: "The proud one will get carried away, and as he gets closer to the throne, his flaws will become more and more." And we need to find ways to make him more carried away and show more flaws. β
Xue Xiyan also nodded: "Timing is very important. β
Tuoba Yuha snorted and said, "The words of the two are really fine." Wu Ming can suffer losses under Wu Feng's family and the Soviet Army, and he will definitely die at the hands of the two. As long as we work together, it must be the most recent thing. β
He also said: "After getting rid of Wuming, my brother and I will definitely ensure the interests of the five peaks of the sea of grass, and the top and bottom of the goshawk department and the five peaks of the sea of grass will be friends forever." β
If Wuming succeeds in plotting to usurp the throne, he will definitely retaliate against the five peaks of the sea of grass, which is also an extremely obvious thing.
The three of them drank a few cups of tea, chatted about some details, and agreed on future contacts. At the time of the fourth watch, Tuoba Yu floated away.
Luo Tingyu listened to all the conversations outside, and asked Wu Feng, "Is this person credible?"
Wu Feng smiled weirdly: "It's a question of whether it's credible or not, but it's a question of who we have to calculate." β
Xue Xiyan nodded: "We will soon go south, it will be difficult to have time to take care of the five peaks of the grass sea in the future, and the ability of the people left behind must be far worse than a few of us." Even if Wuming is eliminated, if there is another powerful minister in the Golden Horde who wants to make a difference, I am afraid that he will still attack Wufeng. β
Wu Feng looked at Xue Xiyan: "Dead rabbit, have you already guessed my plan?"
Xue Xiyan smiled: "Guess a little." But your plan isn't fully formed yet, is it? β
"yes. Wu Feng nodded: "We still need to know more about the situation inside the royal court before it can be completely finalized." After all, there is really no room for error in this matter. β
Xue Xiyan smiled at Wu Feng again: "I didn't see the demon girl again, a little disappointed?"
When they met King Khan, the two met the important ministers in the royal court, and even met Long Aotian, the fifth son of the Long family in Jingzhou, but although Sheng Zuixiang had entered the scope of the Golden Horde Royal Court, he was not in the royal capital.
When talking with Tuoba Yu, Wu Feng also asked about this matter, and based on the information provided by Tuoba Yu, he concluded that Sheng Zuixiang should have traveled around the country to fight against the actions of Buddhism.
Buddhism controls the right tent royal court, and has always wanted to compete with the Ashina sect that controls the left tent royal court for the control of the Golden Horde, and now Sheng Zuixiang supports Wuming, Buddhism will definitely make a move, Sheng Zuixiang must rely on communication means to resolve it one by one, so he let Long Aotian assist Wuming by Wuming's side.
Wu Feng saw Xue Xiyan talking about this matter in front of Luo Tingyu, and couldn't help but think that she was really jealous.
However, it is still gratifying not to have to fight the demon girl directly. At least it was difficult for Wu Feng to kill Sheng Zuixiang, but if it was Long Aotian, he would be happy to cut off the other party's head. (To be continued......)
