Chapter 184: First Encounter
Although he didn't know Xiao Dingxuan, the evil supplement of various intelligence along the way made Zhao Ding know a little about the prince of the East Palace, who had just been canonized by the Northern Liang Dynasty.
To put it simply, the sandpiper and the clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman.
However, it cannot be simply summarized as a sandpiper and a mussel competing for the benefit of the fisherman.
Because although Xiao Dingxuan was not well-known in the Northern Liang royal family before, he didn't have much sense of existence compared to other princes, and most of the time he served by Xiao Daocheng's side, dealing with some trivial things for Xiao Daocheng, or things that other princes were unwilling to do.
Therefore, the status in the court has not been very high.
Even now, there are many people in the Northern Liang court who don't understand why Xiao Daocheng will quickly establish Xiao Dingxuan, the sixth prince who has always been famous, as the prince of Northern Liang after ordering the death of the seventh prince and the exile of the ninth prince and the thirteenth prince.
But Zhao Ding understood the cleverness of Xiao Dingxuan.
If you don't fight, if you don't fight, no matter how many courtiers you entrap, is it useful to entrap Xiao Daocheng, the emperor?
If he remembers correctly, Yongzheng seemed to be playing such a game at the beginning, and finally won in the Nine Sons Succession.
Therefore, it can be seen that this seemingly inconspicuous sixth prince is actually the most far-reaching person in this battle for the crown prince of Northern Liang.
The flowers are gradually charming to the eye.
Game of Thrones is even more so.
The more you indulge in it, the more you don't want to let go.
Especially Xiao Daocheng, an old emperor who has been in charge of the Northern Liang Dynasty for more than 50 years, is even more so.
He was reluctant to let go of his power until he was dying.
The more fierce these princes fight, the more Xiao Daocheng actually feels threatened, so it has created a tragic ending for a series of princes who want to ascend the throne in advance, such as the Seven Princes.
But in the same way, Xiao Dingxuan's prince who does not fight or grab, but Xiao Dao is obedient, is more likely to stand out among many princes.
It can be said that the more he looked at some of the records of Xiao Dingxuan in the report, the more Zhao Ding could feel the various deep calculations under the surface mildness of the seemingly gentle Prince of Northern Liang in front of him, who did not even have much sense of existence.
In short, not to be underestimated.
Xiao Dingxuan took Beiliang Zaifu and Liu Xiyuan all the way.
When he arrived in front of Zhao Ding, he gave his hand again, and then looked at the general of the Xuanjia Army wearing black heavy armor behind him and scolded: "Where are the dog's eyes, I can't see that this is His Royal Highness King Yan, so don't you apologize to His Royal Highness King Yan quickly!" ”
The general of the Xuanjia Army wearing black armor trembled when he heard this, and quickly fell down and dismounted and knelt down and bowed: "The last general is rude, and it is not strange to look at His Royal Highness King Yan." ”
Looking at this scene, Zhao Ding grinned, but did not answer.
Turning his head to look at the historian behind him, he shouted, "Have you written down what happened just now?" ”
"Remember... Noted down..."
The historian stammered back.
Zhao Ding continued: "One more sentence, Prince Xuan of Liang has to come forward and welcome King Yan into the city!" ”
Zhao Ding said word by word.
However, listening to Zhao Ding's words, the hand of the historian who came with Zhao Ding held the pen and froze in place.
For a moment, he looked at Zhao Ding who didn't know whether to remember or not.
Even the expression on Xiao Dingxuan's face froze a little, and his gentle face showed a hint of displeasure.
He originally wanted to use this to embarrass Zhao Ding, kill Zhao Ding's sharpness, and at the same time test his future brother-in-law's temperament, but he didn't expect Zhao Ding to be a little unforgiving.
Once this is recorded, what will future generations say about his father in the history books in the future?
Especially Zhao Ding seemed to take him out, but in fact, he completely pitted him in.
However, Zhao Ding grinned, looked at the historian and continued: "Remember." ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
When the historian heard this, he hurriedly replied, picked up the wolf pen in his hand and was about to continue writing.
But I heard Xiao Dingxuan shouting: "Slow! ”
Then he pulled out the prince's sword at his waist, before everyone could react.
Poof!
It was directly inserted into the body of the general wearing black armor, and then with a sudden thrust, a red blood splattered out, spraying directly on Xiao Dingxuan's face, making his elegant face look a little more hideous at the moment.
However, Xiao Dingxuan didn't seem to notice it, and he didn't even glance at the general who fell in response.
Turning his head, he looked coldly at the historian behind him and ordered: "Remember, in the fifty-fourth year of Jiahua, the emperor sent an envoy to Yu Qian, and the king of Qianyan was determined to follow the decree of the emperor and enter the imperial capital to marry, and then sentenced Wang Hua to plot a rebellion, deliberately sabotage the diplomatic relations of Liang State, prevent the king of Qianyan from being set in Luoyang, and the prince Xuan resolved it, and sentenced Wang Hua to the city..."
With that, Xiao Dingxuan's voice fell.
Suddenly, a historian wearing the official uniform of Beiliang ran out, also took out bamboo slips and brushes, and recorded what Xiao Dingxuan said word by word.
"Hahahaha."
Looking at this scene, Zhao Ding laughed.
The more I looked at Xiao Dingxuan's eyes, the more playful they became.
And Xiao Dingxuan also took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood on his face, and looked at Zhao Ding with a smile: "Look at it, today's arrival of this prince will be thanks to His Royal Highness King Yan, if it weren't for His Royal Highness King Yan, this prince would not have been able to find out, there are still remnants of the chaotic party in this capital." ”
"Yes, I didn't expect that there would be a chaotic party."
Zhao Ding also looked at Xiao Dingxuan with a smile.
"Alas, it's all the prince's carelessness, which makes Lord Yan laugh."
Xiao Dingxuan said with a smile.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's hidden deep after all."
Zhao Ding replied with a smile.
Listening to Zhao Ding's words, Xiao Dingxuan took a step back and said sideways: "Since this is the case, then please invite Lord Yan to enter the city." ”
"Naturally!"
……
looked at the two of them walking in front of them talking and laughing, and then looked at the corpse behind them that had already been carried down, and only the blood stains remained in place.
A cold sweat rose from everyone.
In this encounter, they should have lost completely.
Although the notoriety of Beiliang was finally removed, the price was the death of a general of the Xuanjia Army, which is not a small loss.
Looking at Zhao Ding and Xiao Dingxuan now, they still look like they are talking and laughing, and a chill rises in everyone's hearts.
I'm afraid that this marriage between Qianliang is not simple, and Zhao Ding is not a loser!
Invisibly, it seems to confirm the judgment of Qi Buyu on Zhao Ding in the court.
This Yan Wang Ye is hidden deeply!
watched Xiao Dingxuan lead the way in front, and Zhao Ding followed behind.
A group of Northern Liang ministers who came with Xiao Dingxuan walked into the city gate one after another, and the Xuanjia army who originally held a halberd and asked the Daqian delegation to unload their armor was also standing on both sides of the city gate with their heads bowed like frosted eggplants, waiting for the Daqian delegation to enter the city.
In this encounter, they lost Beiliang!
