Chapter 3 Conspiracy, the Seven Princes are rebellious

The Fourth Prince, Zhao Hongli's face was a little moved, and he lowered his voice and asked cautiously, "Where did Huo Gongzi get the news?" ”

Huo Zhi smiled and did not answer Zhao Hongli's question directly.

He said unhurriedly: "His Royal Highness the King of Thailand should know that in the past few years, His Majesty has been following the tradition of the Wei State to refine the blades of gods and demons to increase the power of the royal family. ”

"This king naturally knows. The birth of the god and demon blade also caused a sensation back then, and many martial artists from various countries were wiped out by their fathers when they arrived at Daliang, causing many people to be dissatisfied. Zhao Hongli saw that Huo Zhi deliberately avoided his question, so he didn't ask much interestingly, and asked, "What happened now?" ”

The fact that the Zhao clan of the Wei State has been refining the blade of the gods and demons is no longer a secret, and most of the martial arts forces of the Wei State know about it, let alone him who is in Daliang.

That day, he had seen the power of that weapon with his own eyes.

However, as far as he knew, the god and demon blade had not been refined, and it was still partially broken.

The real god and demon blade should be equivalent to the magic weapon before the collapse of the Heavenly Dao, and it can be perfectly mastered by their royal family with national fortune, and it is a real great killing weapon.

It's a pity that at that time, in order to deal with the palace master of the Chihe Palace of the Chu State, this god and demon blade was used by his father as a bargaining chip for a transaction with the main sect of Bi Dao Shou, and he exchanged it for Bi Dao Shou at the cost of not continuing to refine the god and demon blade.

After the main sect Bi Lingjun used the Divine and Demon Blade to repel the Chihe Palace Lord, the Divine and Demon Blade disappeared from everyone's sight, and no news about this object was heard again.

It is rumored among the people that the God and Demon Blade has been sealed by Bi Lingjun's blessing and is under her supervision.

Wei's hundred-year plan collapsed halfway.

It was hard for Zhao Hongli to imagine that his father, Emperor Jian'an, would actually restart the refining of the god and demon blades under such circumstances.

Huo Zhi nodded and said, "There are some changes, I can tell Your Highness that we are sure that Your Majesty has restarted refining the God and Demon Blade." ”

"What about the seal that Bi Dao Shou blessed on the God and Demon Blade?" Zhao Hongli asked: "Father Emperor restarted, can Bi Daoshou not know all the time?" ”

Huo Zhi sighed, looked at Zhao Hongli and said: "Your Highness, there are no wonders in the world, even though Your Majesty does not have the strength of other martial artists who dominate the world, but his imperial skills are first-class, and he can mobilize countless skilled craftsmen. The power of one person is limited, but ten, hundreds, thousands, will always find a solution. ”

"In fact, Your Majesty, it has taken him a few years to find a way to continue refining the blade of gods and demons without breaking the seal, and he has easily deceived everyone."

King Zhao Hongli of Thailand was shocked.

Hearing this news, it was as if his father, Emperor Jian'an, was standing in front of him and slapped him.

Tell him that this is the emperor's trick to hide from the sky and cross the sea.

The cover-up methods he used to fight for the crown prince were not even worthy of lifting his shoes in front of him.

However, the feeling was fleeting.

Zhao Hongli had an extra competitive mind.

It is said that the tiger father has no dog, the father can do it, and if he is in his position, he will definitely be able to do it, even better than what he does.

Now he is not doing things carefully, all because his father did not give him the position of crown prince, and the resources around him are insufficient.

King Zhao Hongli of Thailand sat up straight and said, "Then what does this have to do with the seventh brother?" ”

Huo Zhi stared at the four princes, smiling and not saying a word.

King Zhao Hongli's mind turned sharply, and he quickly thought of a certain aspect: "Huo Gongzi means to spread this news and then frame it to the seventh brother?" ”

"Your Highness is wise!" Huo Zhi arched his hand, complimented him with a smile on his face, and continued: "Concubine Yuan Niangniang is from Yunhua Sect, the strength of the sect is profound, and she also has high hopes for King Rui. And Concubine Yuan's deep affection for His Majesty is also a well-known thing in the palace, if you really want to bring down King Rui, I'm afraid it will not be so easy. ”

Huo Zhi picked up the teacup, poured a full cup of tea, and said, "But what if the Seventh Prince leaked the matter of the Divine and Demon Blade, intending to force His Majesty to abdicate?" ”

"Hiss......" The fourth prince gasped.

Huo Zhi took a sip of tea and said: "The matter of the God and Demon Blade is very important to Your Majesty, if it is leaked, it will definitely be angry, and then King Rui will not be able to keep it even if he has a great background." ”

At some point, a beetle the size of a fingernail flew on the table.

Huo Zhi stretched out his hand and flicked the beetle away, and said leisurely: "At this point, His Royal Highness King Rui will be able to take the lead in the game, and we can also concentrate on dealing with King Wu." ”

King Zhao Hongli of Thailand was silent when he heard this.

Although it is said that it is the most ruthless emperor's family, and the battle for the throne has always been cruel and ruthless, but when he really wanted to experience it himself, there was a trace of hesitation in his heart.

For he knew that if he did so, he would be the king of Zhirui.

At the same time, it is also equivalent to completely planning the situation that his father finally built, and roasting him on the fire.

In the future, whether it is successful or not, he and King Rui will never die.

Can you afford to do that?

But if you want to get the throne, this is a step that must be taken.

Zhao Hongli picked up the teacup, and he took a sip of tea to hide the struggling emotions in his heart.

After a while, he seemed to have made up his mind, put down the teacup and said, "Huo Gongzi is not a loser to General Huo, and he has a good chest. But overthrowing King Rui is just the beginning, there is also King Wu behind him, and it is said that there is a top ten martial artist in the world by his side, which is not so easy to deal with. ”

Huo Zhi knew that the fourth prince Zhao Hongli had already moved, and said: "Compared with King Rui, King Wu has a big disadvantage. ”

"What disadvantage?"

"He's not in the girder."

The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli, looked up at Huo Zhi.

Huo Zhi explained: "After eradicating King Rui, and then find a way to confirm your status as Your Highness, Your Highness can justifiably mobilize General Feng and our Huo family's soldiers and horses, which is conservatively estimated to have an army of 300,000." The warrior king's division is unknown, and it will be defeated militarily. As for the Ming Sect Master, the Sword Forge Villa standing behind us also has a way to deal with it. ”

"As far as this king knows, Sword Casting Villa is only a second-rate martial arts force, even if it has developed rapidly in recent years, it will not be able to deal with the top ten martial artists in the world, right?" The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli's eyes moved slightly, and he asked with deep meaning.

"Your Highness is afraid that you don't know, the Sword Casting Villa is no longer the original Sword Casting Villa, and their strength is far beyond Your Highness's imagination. Otherwise, our Huo family would not have spent so much effort on them all these years. ”

The fourth prince, Zhao Hong, paused slightly, seeing Huo Zhi's determined appearance, the last trace of doubt in his heart was also eliminated, and he said with a smile: "Huo Gongzi has thought about it so carefully, if this king is still indecisive, it will be too incomprehensible." ”

He picked up his teacup.

Huo Zhi understood, and also picked up the teacup.

The two of them touched their teacups slightly, then drank them all, then looked at each other and laughed.

"By the way, has Miss Huo responded recently?" The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli, asked.

Huo Zhi knew the meaning of the words of the fourth prince Zhao Hongli, hesitated for a moment and said: "Your Highness didn't say that I forgot, I don't know if Your Highness will be free tomorrow?" ”

"This king has been fine lately."

"That's right, then tomorrow I'll bring my sister over to disturb His Highness, I don't know if His Highness welcomes it?"

The fourth prince said with a happy face: "This king is extremely welcome. ”

He is now getting closer and closer to the Huo family, and they are involved in a lot of secrets.

It's just that the current relationship, the fourth prince Zhao Hongli has always had no bottom in his heart, and he feels that he must have a stronger relationship with the Huo family.

The best way is to marry, and if the marriage fails, it is best to let both parties have a blood bond to strengthen the connection with each other.

Obviously, Huo Zhi also knew what the fourth prince Zhao Hongli was thinking.

He also has the same concerns as Zhao Hongli.

So after returning from the Thai Palace, Huo Zhi found Huo Xianshui non-stop.

At this time, Huo Xianshui was immersed in practice, she was wearing a black tight-fitting practice uniform, which perfectly set off her graceful figure, and a pair of long legs were even more marked.

"Xiaoshui, come here, the second brother has something to tell you."

Hearing Huo Zhi's call, Huo Xianshui hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand and walked over: "Second brother, you called me?" ”

Huo Zhi said straight to the point: "Tomorrow, you dress up and go to the Thai King's Mansion with me." ”

Huo Xianshui frowned, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Second brother, haven't I told you many times, I'm not interested in royal people." ”

She was about to lose her temper, but Huo Zhi's next words made her stand on the spot.

"The ancestor's longevity is running out."

Huo Zhi saw Huo Xianshui's face pale, he couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but sigh and continued: "You know what it means to our Huo family when the ancestor dies, the eldest brother and father are not less busy for this, you are not a child anymore, it is time to contribute to the family." ”

Huo Xianshui's face became a little ugly.

"Before, because of the Korean assassins, we missed the king of Wu, but this time the king of Thailand must be stabilized, and we must help him as a dragon. My father and I both agreed that the King of Thailand seemed to have a lot of means, but in fact he had a lot of courage and no strategy, and that his accession to the throne would be of great benefit to us. ”

After a long time, Huo Xianshui suddenly sneered, raised his head and said, "Okay, I will go with you to see His Royal Highness the King of Thailand tomorrow, but if I want to go further, I will not agree." ”

"Naturally, you don't need to say more, your second brother knows the severity."

Huo Xianshui's tone gradually became cold: "Is there anything else wrong with the second brother?" If it's okay, I'm going to keep practicing. ”

"You practice, I'll let my subordinates prepare Bazhen soup for you, it's good for you to cultivate your true qi."

Huo Xianshui did not answer, and there was only a gust of fist wind in the courtyard.

Huo Zhi knew that Huo Xianshui was a little unhappy in his heart, so he stopped bothering and left silently.

On the second day, Huo Xianshui really dressed up and Huo Zhi and went to the Thai Palace.

And not long after that, there was news in Daliang City that Emperor Jian'an had broken his promise and secretly refined the blades of gods and demons.

The matter of the god and demon blade, which had been silent for a long time, reappeared in everyone's field of vision.

This matter has even alarmed Zhengmen, making Emperor Jian'an furious.

"Rebel, really rebel."

In the Wei Imperial Palace, in the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Jian'an Zhao Fuxu stared at a man in front of him with a murderous face.

"Father, wronged, wronged." Zhao Hongsheng, the seventh prince of Rui, knelt on top of the main hall and trembled: "It's really not me." ”

"At this point, you still want to quibble?" Emperor Jian'an's face became extremely gloomy: "Now the entire Liang is saying that I am untrustworthy, arrogant, secretly refining the blades of gods and demons, and is a treacherous villain, and even more so they say that I am not worthy of the position, and I should abdicate and make way for Xian." ”

"Which sage did I let me, do you know?"

The seventh prince, Zhao Hongsheng, lay on the ground and didn't say a word.

Emperor Jian'an roared angrily: "It is for me to give you, His Royal Highness King Rui, who has read through the books of sages!" ”

"Ahh The seventh prince, Zhao Hongsheng, was so frightened that his soul was scared: "Father, the son doesn't know, there must be a villain who framed the son." ”

Emperor Jian'an snorted coldly: "At this point, you still don't admit it?" Wang Aiqing, what did you find, say it. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

On the top of the main hall, an official of Dali Temple wearing a splendid official uniform stood up and said: "The humble position has been determined after many investigations, and this news is from the Rui Wang's mansion, and the source is a Confucian master under the Rui Wang's door. When we went to arrest him, this man refused to admit his guilt, and finally shouted Long live King Rui, and died by cutting himself off in front of everyone. ”

"Impossible." Zhao Hongsheng, the seventh prince, defended: "Master Chen is full of wealth, and he will never do such a rebellious thing, there must be a misunderstanding here, father." The son asked his father to take a look. ”

Emperor Jian'an closed his eyes slightly, and said for a long time: "Gonggong Feng, which place in the Wei Kingdom is more suitable for King Rui to become a vassal at the moment." ”

Feng Dabao hurriedly stood up and said, "Back to Your Majesty, now Beiyuan County is rich in products and is a treasure land of feng shui. ”

"Then from now on, let King Rui take charge of the Northern Plains County."

"Yes, the minions obey."

If you are a feudal lord, it means that you are completely out.

Zhao Hongsheng, the seventh prince, stood up and protested: "Father, there is a misunderstanding here, there must be a misunderstanding, the son is innocent, he will not do such a thing, father!" ”

However, Emperor Jian'an was unmoved no matter how the Seventh Prince explained, and directly waved his sleeves and left the hall.

The other ministers did not dare to stay for a long time and left separately.

He was the only one left crying and grabbing the ground in the main hall, shouting injustice.

In the palace of the king of Thailand, it was learned that the seventh prince Zhao Hongsheng had been expelled from Beijing, and the fourth prince Zhao Hongli and Huo Zhi celebrated each other.

"Beiyuan County is a bitter cold place, and now King Rui will never turn over, even if the Yuan Concubine Niangniang intercedes later, it will be useless." Huo Zhi said happily: "Rui Wang is really out as we expected!" ”

"This is all the credit of Huo Gongzi, this king didn't expect that you would install such a special dead man in King Rui's mansion so early." The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli, sighed and said: "Otherwise, everything would not have gone so smoothly." ”

"Hahaha, it's just an appetizer." Huo Zhi said with a solemn expression: "Next, Your Majesty will inevitably be exhausted in the face of Zhengyimen, and we must prepare for the next step." One is against His Majesty, the other is against King Wu, and there is no room for error, otherwise it will ......"

The fourth prince, Zhao Hongli's face was also grim, he knew that he had now gotten on the thief ship and couldn't get down, so he didn't turn back when he opened his bow.
