In the study, Zhao Guangyuan rubbed the ring on his hand. This is the male ring in the pair of rings, and it is the same pair as the one in Xia Er's hand. He drew the drawings by himself and handed them over to Lin Qiushan to create.

The beloved is not around, only to see things and think about people.

In the study, a group of confidants disagreed, and he listened quietly.

Some of the henchmen said that they would take revenge on the king of Chu, and some said that they should continue to keep a low profile, recuperate, and wait for the prince and the king of Qin to fight and lose both, and then reap the benefits.

Zhao Guangyuan had a long mind and thought about his brothers......

His father had sixteen sons, and his brother and eleven were no longer there, leaving fourteen. Fourteen, fifteen and sixteen are still minors, the fifth brother Zhao Wang fell off the horse when he was a child and injured his leg, and he was lame in a leg, and now he is closed most of the time, ignoring everything, so he has to calligraphy and painting.

There are ten adult princes left, all with their own thoughts.

The crown prince encircled most of his brothers, and there were also people standing on the platform around King Qin and King Chu.

The old nine and ten are not there, and the foreign family is not visible, so they naturally stand on the side of the prince. Thirteen saw that it was a child's heart, and he was afraid that he didn't think about it in that way, but he couldn't help but Liu Guifei would push him forward.

The sixth child is only a month older than himself, and he loved to compete with himself when he was a child, but now it seems that he doesn't see how close he is. Judging from what he has done over the years, the prince and the king of Qin do not rely on each other, and they cannot be offended.

Among the brothers, there are either those who don't rely on each other like Lao Sixty-three, or those who openly stand on the prince like Lao Jiu Lao Shi.

The crown prince also wooed the old Eighth Wei King. The Wei Wangwai family is a family of military generals, who have guarded the border for several generations and have soldiers and horses in their hands. It also added a lot of confidence to the prince.

Zhao Guangyuan thought about his brothers, except for a few two or three whose mothers were ordinary palace people, the rest were all foreign family members. The maternal ancestor of the thirteenth is the Hubu Shangshu, the maternal ancestor of the King of Qin and the King of Chu is the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and the maternal ancestor of the Twelfth King Wu is in the military department......

The most prominent is, of course, his foreign family, the Lu family.

His maternal ancestor attacked a product of the country, and his family was a military general for more than ten generations, almost the same life as Daqi, and he had a great reputation in Daqi, and everyone knew it.

It's a pity that it was destroyed ten years ago.

Zhao Guangyuan pinched the ring on his hand, and the hatred in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

"Lord ......"

Zhao Guangyuan regained his thoughts. "It's about keeping a low profile. Now we are not good at facing the crown prince and the king of Qin. But the king of Chu openly assassinated against me, and if he didn't fight back, it would seem that the king was incompetent, and his arrogance would grow even more. ”

The henchmen nodded in agreement, "The prince is right. If you don't fight back after being beaten, let outsiders know, and think that the prince will be obedient. Who will vote for those who are watching in secret? You have to show the ability of the prince! ”

And what the King of Chu did was really disgusting. He actually used His Highness Sixteen as a feller, without any regard for the life of His Highness Sixteen. If His Highness Sixteen is not rescued from drowning, the thorn in the emperor's heart will only be pierced deeper.

And no matter what the truth is, the cause is in the prince. The prince has a ruthless and dark reputation, and I am afraid that he can't wash it off.

King Chu's move is shameful.

Seeing that most of his henchmen were in favor of revenge and going back, Zhao Guangyuan prompted: "Didn't the secret guard find out the stronghold of Wangbei City, tonight, take advantage of his unpreparedness and completely destroy his stronghold." ”

King Qin and King Chu relied on these secret guards in their hands and did a lot of things behind their backs. But Zhao Guangyuan estimated that there were not many secret guards in their hands.

There are many eyes and ears in the capital, and his father is suspicious, and the king of Qin and Chu wants to train the dead manpower, but he is afraid that it is limited. It just destroyed the stronghold behind this and cut off his wings.

as a warning.

"Yes!" Fang Er and the others were excited. It is to fight back in this way that people feel comfortable.

Some of the staff, however, have some concerns. "Lord Wang, will you startle the snake with such a hard work?"

If the secret stronghold of Qin and Chu is destroyed, the strength of the prince will also be exposed before those two. I'm afraid that the tiger is in a hurry to jump off the wall.

"No problem. Neither of them dared to speak out about it. Zhao Guangyuan explained lightly.

Even if the two knew what he did, they would only hold the matter tightly and would not dare to speak out. He did not return to Beijing for ten years, and everyone knows it. But the stronghold in North City has existed for a long time, and if you want to find out, the two of them can't get a good place.

On the contrary, he was afraid that the emperor would find out about his head, and the two of them would automatically help wipe his head and tail.

In this way, you can also stop for a while so that he can free up his hands to do something.

"Yes. The prince is wise! ”

That night, some residents in Beishi faintly heard the sound of swords clashing. Those who live close hide in the bed and shiver. The sound of swords clashing until dawn ceased.

Beishi is inhabited by ordinary poor people, who usually go out before dawn to make a living, but today is the same as an appointment, and everyone only opens the door on the day.

After dawn, the king of Chu, who had received the reward, smashed a room of household goods with hatred. stepped on the wolf on the ground and went to the palace of King Qin.

King Qin was also stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Zhao Guangyuan to move so fast and use such ruthless methods, destroying their stronghold in Beishi overnight, and killing all the twenty or so people inside.

Those twenty or so people are all masters of one genus and two, and after cultivating them for so many years, they are invincible to use, and they are all gone overnight?

"Not a single one alive?"

"None of them lived." The king of Chu gritted his teeth hatefully. Those people were all their arms, and they were easy to use, but now they were all gone. hated so much that he could breathe fire in his eyes, so he almost ran over the palace and killed him.

"Third brother, how did he find out about us?"

He thinks he's done a clean job. At night, before he went to bed, he got the news, and the king of Jin over there was still anxious, and he interrogated the subordinate masters of the mansion, but he didn't find out one or two.

But how did Zhao Guangyuan find out about him? The people he sent to push sixteen people had no branches, no vines, no handles, and no people, how did Zhao Guangyuan find out?

Or is he just conjecturing, just because he sent someone to his house to inquire that night, and he assumed that he did it himself, so he sent someone to destroy his stronghold?

Is Zhao Guangyuan so careless? Would you rather kill by mistake than let go? That's not his character. Or did he change his life of guarding the tomb for ten years? Getting ruthless?

King Qin looked at him with a fool's gaze, "I said earlier that your methods were clumsy, but you still don't believe it." On the Jin Palace, he guessed that it was you. According to your nature, if you hadn't done it, you would have jumped out and pointed at him and scolded him. ”

It was only when he returned home that he thought of this loophole.

At that time, Zhao Guangyuan tested the fourth brother, but the fourth brother did not distinguish with him, and he did not find the problem at that time, until he turned over everything that happened yesterday at night, and he did not think of this loophole.

I wanted to remedy one or two today, but I didn't expect to hear the news that the North City stronghold was destroyed.

"He guessed yesterday that you did it, but how can you tell that he did it?"

"Who else could it be, if it wasn't him!" The king of Chu was in a hurry, and when he heard his third brother's words, he jumped up angrily, and looked like Zhao Guangyuan was in front of him, and he was about to step forward to kill him.

"Are you so sure? Could it not have been sent by the prince? The prince just took the opportunity to push the matter to Lao Qi's head, leading us to fight and kill two birds with one stone. ”

"Impossible!" The king of Chu jumped to refute, he didn't think about the prince.

"The prince is not only mediocre, but also cautious, and he will never send someone to do such a thing in the capital. He was afraid of arousing our revenge, provoking his father's dissatisfaction with him, and making his position as prince unstable. ”

Over the years, the crown prince has always looked at the methods used by their brothers in secret, but most of the time there is no effective measure to stop them. He and the third brother slowly grew up in secret.

The position of the prince is tantamount to picking up leaks, he just wants to calm things down in everything, but he doesn't dare to use such tough methods. He always had to maintain his image of benevolence and benevolence.

Besides, if the matter is revealed, it will reach the ears of the emperor and the imperial envoy, saying that he has a secret guard, and he will shed his skin if he does not die, and the position of the prince will not be able to sit steadily.

Don't dare to take any chances.

Of course, King Qin also knew about this matter, and the chances of the prince doing it were low.

Outside the capital, the prince may use poison schemes against them, but in the capital, he will not dare. It is possible that his subordinates will secretly do this behind his back, but the prince will not give such an order.

And he still wants to win over Lao Qi now, even if the people below have such thoughts, the prince will restrain them and let them secretly help Lao Qi, and will never do anything to blame Lao Qi.

The prince has military connections in his hands, but he is not only weaker than their brothers, but also weaker than King Yue. It will only be wooed, not secretly bad.

But King Qin didn't want his brother to be so arbitrary, listening to the wind and rain, he was afraid that his impulsiveness would cause a catastrophe.

Said: "This matter still needs to be investigated before conclusions are drawn, before it is investigated, you can't secretly attack Lao Qi's side, at least on the surface, you can't show an incompatible attitude." ”

King Yue returned to Beijing after many years, if he returned to Beijing, let outsiders look at their brother and not tolerate him, no matter what the truth behind it was, everyone would only sympathize with the weak and only denounce the two of them.

The king of Chu reluctantly agreed.

But in his heart, he hated Zhao Guangyuan. The two dozen or so people, all of them good players, were all gone overnight. He and his brothers are afraid that it will not be easy to cultivate so many such good people. In vain, the prince and his family picked up the cheap.

The king of Chu was hateful in his heart, and he only thought about how to avenge this revenge.

The news also reached the Prince's Mansion.

In the study, all the staff members were like in the desert, thirsty for many days and finally drank the sweet spring, smiling, and in a good mood.

"I don't know who the King of Qin and King Chu offended and lost a stronghold overnight." It's really exciting.

The King of Qin and the King of Chu are not less against the crown prince, they are ambitious, and no one with a discerning eye can see it. Those who are secretly raised, how many things have broken the prince, and now I hear that it is all gone, it is called a joy.

Everyone couldn't help but congratulate each other.

The prince was also in a good mood. In order to show his brother, friend and brother, he suppressed, he couldn't do a lot of things, knowing that it was the bad thing of the king of Qin and the king of Chu, everyone watched it, but it was not good to retaliate back, so he could only be secretly angry.

The henchmen of that stronghold had already asked him to send someone to destroy it, but as soon as he launched his whole body, he was afraid that there was a trap in it, so he didn't do it for a long time.

Unexpectedly, I don't know which immortal solved his predicament.

That's great.

"Is it possible that King Yue sent someone to do it? Yesterday's incident, it was obvious that the King of Chu secretly blocked King Yue, His Royal Highness the Sixteenth was fine, and he couldn't hurt King Yue in the slightest, but in the emperor's place, King Yue had a reputation for being ruthless and unjust. It is normal for King Yue to want to take revenge and go back. ”

Normal people can't bear this breath. It was not easy to get out of the quagmire and return to Beijing, when he was assassinated by such means. Normal people can't help but want to take revenge back.

"King Yue? Impossible. King Yue has so many people? The stronghold of the King of Chu, there are dozens of people, all of them are good players, and our people may not have a chance of winning against them, where can the King of Yue cultivate so many people? ”

All the staff members thought it was impossible. King Yue was trapped in the imperial mausoleum, there were people staring at him everywhere, and there were checks in and out, so it was impossible to have the opportunity to train people.

The repair of the Yue Wang's Mansion also depends on the rewards of the princes and the emperor, the Yue King wants money or not, and there is no one to ask for people, how to cultivate manpower?

Could it be the manpower left by Lu Guogong secretly?

But over the years, they have been staring at the imperial tomb, and no one has had any contact with King Yue. And can you endure ten years for so long?

King Yue wants someone in his hands, won't he plan to return to Beijing early? Ten years to wait?

Everyone thinks it's impossible.

The prince also felt that it was impossible. If he wants someone in his hands, and there is such a powerful dead soldier, he can't stay in the imperial tomb for a day, he has already stirred up the wind and rain, and he has to wait for ten years?

And he has also been to the Yue Wang's Mansion, and there is also his eyeliner in the Yue Wang's Mansion, saying that the Yue Wang's treasury is full of gifts from everyone, and he has no savings at all.

He is a prince of the East Palace, and he has often worried about gold and silver over the years, and often sighs that the yellow and white things are not enough, and the king of Yue is so poor, can he cultivate so many dead soldiers?

The two brothers must have dozens of people in that stronghold, not to mention twenty or thirty people, and if King Yue wants to destroy it, he will need at least twice as many people.

The crown prince thought it was impossible.

"Who would do that?"

"Could it be King Jin?" Yesterday was the first birthday banquet of the eldest son of the King of Jin, and even the emperor and queen went out of the palace to celebrate, and almost all the dignitaries and nobles in the capital came, but the king of Chu gave his face. It is fake that King Jin is not angry.

"King Jin?" The crown prince frowned, "King Jin is also possible." "Thirteen do things casually, and they don't deal with the King of Qin and the King of Chu, so it's not impossible to take this opportunity to get angry.

A group of henchmen analyzed the possibility of King Jin doing this.

After all, Liu Guifei has never put the queen in her eyes, and Liu Guifei's heart is obvious, and His Royal Highness the Thirteenth still has some hands in his hands.

There are many opinions on this matter. And the matter of His Highness Sixteen falling into the water has no result.

I only heard that the two palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting for His Highness Sixteen to leave the palace were gone yesterday. The king of Jin also killed several subordinates.

And the next afternoon, the emperor summoned the relevant people into the palace.

"Brother Seven Emperors!"

Zhao Guangji came to the emperor's imperial study early, and when the brothers entered, he politely greeted the imperial brothers and sisters one by one. When the people saw him guarding the door, they thought that yesterday's incident was caused by him, and he felt guilty and apologized to everyone at the door.

Who knows, it's actually to keep the seventh.

Zhao Guangyuan smiled at him lightly, seeing that he was rushing towards him from afar, and stretched out his hand to himself while running, but he also refused, so he subconsciously picked him up and carried him into the imperial study.
