This time it was Qin and Liu's turn to stay on the spot, how could the two of them not believe that His Majesty the Emperor, who had reigned for so many years, would suddenly return? But they didn't dare to predict that there would be such a possibility.

But at present, Huo Zheng and Lu Liang Errao's series of operations have to be suspicious, and they have also detained Cui Yan, the veteran of the two dynasties, in the palace, what is this for? Such behavior has to make people suspicious.

At this moment, even Liu Yu, who was relatively conservative and old-minded, had to say softly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's not impossible to have this possibility......

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw that Liu Yu affirmed his conjecture, and suddenly felt like a mang on his back, he was even more restless, at the moment he was disturbed, don't look at himself as His Royal Highness the Prince, supervising national affairs, but in fact, the real power is still in the Taiji Palace, if someone really uses the emperor to return, and does not mourn, the space for operation in the middle will be much larger, and then he will really be slaughtered by others on the chopping board, but he and Prime Minister Huo Cheng usually have no contact, and they can't talk about any friendship.

But then again, if he really had a relationship with Huo Xiang, His Majesty might not be so reliant on Huo Zheng, hey!

At this time, Qin Shao said with a solemn face: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen thinks that we should immediately connect with the hundred officials of the foreign dynasty and break into the palace to meet again, I don't believe that he Huo Zheng is a dog and dares to stop the prince Chitose." ”

Liu Yu shook his head and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, let's not rush into the palace immediately, let's send an envoy to the Taiji Palace in the name of His Royal Highness to interrogate, test it first, and ask Cui Xiangguo when he will be able to come out of the palace, and then it's not too late for us to break into the palace again." ”

Seeing that the two advisors he relied on agreed to break into the palace, the prince thought about it, but still felt that Liu Yu's suggestion was more secure, and immediately ordered to send an envoy to the Taiji Palace to throw stones and ask for directions.

An Guojun, Gongzi Xiu's mansion, at this time, in the lobby of the mansion, there are only two people, Wei Man and Gongzi Xiu, Gongzi Xiu naturally knows that something happened to Taiji Palace, and at this moment he is the most restless, and they naturally want to go to the East Palace.

Gongzi Xiu turned his head and asked Wei Mandao, "Mr. Wei, what do you think of the current situation?" ”

Wei Man's face sank like water, and said: "How else can you look at it, Your Majesty doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, but judging from the current situation, I am afraid it is only a matter of time before the crown prince succeeds to the throne, I personally don't believe that Huo Xiang and Chief Manager Lu have the courage to change places." ”

Gongzi Xiu could no longer suppress the unwillingness and anger in his heart at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "Is it that I am destined to be a homeless husband in my life?" ”

Wei Man glanced at Gongzi Xiu and comforted: "Gongzi, unless the crown prince dies violently in Ming, no matter how you toss, it will be difficult to change your life." ”

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, his face was full of despair, he grabbed the wine jug on the table and drank it all, and said to himself:

"Fourth brother! Fourth brother! I'm just a few years late, in terms of ability, in terms of talent, my son-in-law doesn't lose half a point to you, just because you are the eldest son? And for the rest of my life, I am destined to only be drunk and dream of death? Hahaha......"

Wei Mandao: "Childe's words are wrong, in fact, in the eyes of Your Majesty, you are more suitable than His Royal Highness the Prince, and you must not give up on yourself, the prince is only a middle-class asset in my opinion, but Childe, you can be said to be a high-ranking asset among the princes, which is one of the reasons why I had to follow Gongzi back then." ”

Gongzi Xiu sighed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wei, since you followed me, I have never heard you praise me so much, I am indeed a little flattered, yours is, unless Prince Ming is dead, otherwise, I have no chance." ”

Wei Man's eyes flashed, and he continued: "Childe, that's not necessarily. ”

Childe Xiu sat up straight and asked, "Oh! What is the best plan for the gentleman? ”

Wei Mandao: "The prince is early, Your Majesty has spent too much energy on the prince, as long as the prince does not do anything out of line, although His Royal Highness the prince is only a middle-class asset, but his position as the prince is still as stable as Mount Tai, this point, Changping Jun Gongzi Sheng sees it very clearly, he is out early, and it is not a bad move for Mingzhe to protect himself......"

Gongzi Xiu naturally understood what Wei Man meant.

In fact, this is the sunk cost, in a person, or on one thing to spend too much cost, too much energy, people will involuntarily firmly grasp the sunk cost, unwilling to let go easily, not willing to turn back easily.

This is the same as when Kangxi abolished the second prince Yinren, considering his efforts for so many years, and considering the situation at that time, he was established and abolished, abolished and established, but he was unwilling to admit that he was blind, and he was not willing to easily give up the successor he had cultivated for more than 30 years.

Wei Mandao: "I think the Taiji Palace has changed, the prince and the prince Cui Yan are trapped in the palace, and the East Palace is the most nervous, I think the people around the prince will definitely ask the prince to break into the palace again, this is our opportunity." ”

Gongzi Xiu was puzzled: "It's just to break into the palace, in case Your Majesty is still alive, I think the prince's move is not enough to make His Majesty make up his mind to abolish the prince." ”

When Wei Man heard this, he bowed his head and said: "Yes, it is true, there are two speculations about what is happening inside the Taiji Palace now, first, His Majesty has returned now, and second, His Majesty is still alive, but he can't manage the government in person for some unknown reasons, so he has to pretend to be the chief manager of Tuolu and Huo Zheng and others as the acting regent." ”

When Gongzi Xiu heard this, his eyes flashed, and he said, "What does Mr. mean, which is more likely?" ”

Wei Man continued: "I think the second possibility is more likely, according to my understanding of Huo Zheng's Rao, he is not a traitor who can do this to hide from the sea, and he also has the emperor's henchmen like Chief Lu by his side to fully cooperate, I can believe that Huo Zheng will change his mind, but Chief Lu has been with His Majesty for more than 30 years, and he should not act as recklessly." ”

"Since the two of them can unite and cooperate inseparably to block Cui Yan and the others from breaking into the palace, this is a very clear problem, Your Majesty may still be in the world, but the first possibility cannot be completely ruled out."

Gongzi Xiu pondered for a long time, and asked anxiously: "Sir, will you come out?" ”

Wei Man got up and turned around in place a few times, and said: "What we have to do is to add fuel to the fire, whether Your Majesty is still in the world or not, we can't let the prince stop at such a fight as breaking into the palace, what we have to do is to force the prince to take the last step, whether the prince succeeds or not, he can only become a public enemy, and then we can sit back and reap the benefits." ”

When Gongzi heard this, he was shocked and said, "Could it be that Mr. means ......?"

Wei Man nodded and said: "Yes, even if you force the prince to admonish the soldiers, only if the prince does such a big thing, the prince will really fall out of favor with His Majesty, and for the time being, regardless of whether His Majesty is alive or not, he will not tolerate such a rebellious son." ”

Gongzi Xiu frowned and asked: "It's okay if the prince's military advice fails, in case the military advice succeeds, and the princes are coerced, won't we be in a bamboo basket to draw water?" ”

Wei Man said: "There has never been a foolproof way in this world, and it is already the creation of the land to win half of the son, we can only bet that the prince will fail in the war, and only in this way can His Majesty make up his mind to abolish the prince." ”

Gongzi Xiu thought about it for a while, and said with a firm look in his eyes, "Okay, just according to Mr.'s clever plan, but how can I make the prince make up his mind to war?" ”

Wei Manhao took four words for a long time: "Waste grows and grows young." ”

Gongzi Xiuqi said: "Waste the long and young? ”

Wei Man nodded and said, "Yes!" Let the East Palace really firmly think that His Majesty wants to abolish Chang Liyou, or let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think that Lu and Huo colluded to abolish Chang Liyou, so that the foundation of the East Palace has been shaken, even if the prince does not have the courage to fight, the people around the prince will definitely fight back and try to turn the tables, this is our only chance to bring down the prince. ”

Gongzi Xiu's eyes flashed with a glint and said, "Okay! Good! Good! Mr. Gao said. ”

Gongzi cultivated: "But the waste grows and the young, the long is there, but where is this young?" Does the gentleman want me to enter the game myself? ”

Wei Man shook his head and said: "Childe, you must not enter the game, this will only make the subordinates think that you are the main messenger behind all these events, if the future Childe can become a great treasure, this will also be a great damage to the reputation of Childe, besides, what if Your Majesty is alive?" What would he think of Childe? ”

Hearing this, Gongzi Xiu couldn't help but nodded.

Wei Man continued: "Childe, I have actually found a candidate for you a long time ago, and he is very suitable to be the youngest of this waste Changli Young." ”

Childe Xiu cast an inquiring look.

Wei Man slowly spoke: "Changping Jun, Gongzi Sheng." ”

Childe Xiu stood up and said, "What? Childe Sheng? How could he? Isn't he already out of the game? ”

Wei Man bowed his head slightly and explained: "But the person standing behind him is unwilling to let him get out easily, so he can only hang half-dead like this." ”

Gongzi Xiu asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Wei Man said in shock to another Gongzi Xiu: "According to reliable sources, after the Taiji Palace water incident, Gongzi Sheng himself was trapped in the Taiji Palace and could not retreat. ”

Gongzi Xiudao: "Since Gongzi Sheng was removed from the title of king for more than a year, I didn't expect that he actually entered the palace secretly, I really didn't expect it, how did Mr. know that Gongzi Sheng was also trapped in the palace?" ”

Wei Mandao: "I didn't notice Gongzisheng at first, after all, he was out a long time ago, insignificant, do you know that Gongzisheng has a doorman of Feng Wei?" ”

Gongzi Xiu bowed slightly: "Well, after Gongzi Sheng fell out of favor, he switched to my disciple, I saw that he was quite talented, and he became a subordinate officer of Tingwei Prison under Tingwei Cheng Zhang You, so he simply accepted him, is it his news?" Is his message reliable? ”

Wei Mandao: "It was Feng Wei who was drunk and inadvertently leaked, he has always been Gongzisheng's confidant, you often feel guilty after switching to Gongzi, last month he disguised himself to visit Gongzisheng secretly, and found that Gongzisheng was not in the house, and he didn't know where Gongzisheng went. ”

"Later, I spent 10,000 gold to buy off the servants in their house, the news is accurate, the house has been claiming that Gongzi Sheng is in the house, but the servants, about ten months ago, someone secretly picked up Gongzi Sheng at night, and the servants also, those mysterious people spoke in a shrill voice that seemed to be sent by the palace, after I confirmed it in many ways, I guessed that Gongzi Sheng must have been admitted to the Taiji Palace, the absolute value of this ten thousand gold flowers."
