Chapter Seventy-Eight: Let's Do It Tonight
As soon as he left Anxi Mansion, he ran into Tian Ye and others, and Zhang Ming said secretly: "It's really a narrow road." ”
When Tian Ye saw Zhang Ming, the cold light in his eyes flashed, and he sneered: "Zhang Ming, you also go to the capital? You haven't been to the capital yet, the prosperity of the capital, you should take a good look at it, if you don't go to the capital, you will always be a dirt bun." ”
Zhang Ming's Lin worship, Tian Ye didn't take him in his eyes at all, a congenital late stage of worship, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Zhang Ming smiled slightly: "Yes, this time I will go to see the style of the capital and see what kind of environment it is to cultivate a character like General Tian." ”
Lin Xianfeng pulled Zhang Ming's sleeve and asked him not to be sarcastic about the field. This guy in the field is lawless and has done all the bad things, but it is not easy to get along. Zhang Ming gave Lin Fengfeng a reassuring look.
Tian Ye sneered: "Zhang Ming, although you are sharp now, when you arrive in the capital, see how General Ben cleans you up." ”
Zhang Ming didn't care about Tian Ye's words. There is no way to take himself in the fields of Anxi Mansion, and when he arrives in the capital, there are five princes, no matter how powerful the Tian family is, I believe that Tian Ye will not dare to blatantly kill himself. Besides, with Zhang Ming's escape speed, as long as it wasn't a god realm powerhouse, he believed that if he wanted to escape, no one would be able to keep him.
Zhang Ming and Lin Feng sped up and quickly disappeared at the end of the road.
Ju Ji said to Tian Ye: "General, the emperor is seriously ill, and the third prince and the fifth prince are afraid that they will soon be decided. I didn't expect that Zhang Ming also entered Beijing at this time, but Lin Fengfeng personally came to invite him. ”
The competition for the throne has always been fierce and cruel, and several other princes have been eliminated in the past two years, leaving only the third prince and the fifth prince still in the game.
The third prince has a high prestige in the military, with the support of the general Tian Rong and others, and the fifth prince has the support of the civilian clique, and the two can be said to be evenly matched in terms of power.
However, the fifth prince is benevolent and righteous, and his reputation is much stronger than that of the third prince.
Tian Ye said: "In the final analysis, the battle for the throne depends on whose fist is bigger. With the support of the military, the three princes have the power to shake the world, and the group of civilian officials behind the five princes who can only play lip service are useless. The throne must be the third prince. ”
As long as the third prince ascends to the throne, Zhang Ming will die. When the time comes, let alone being an official, no matter how clever Zhang Ming's light skills are, the entire Great Qian Dynasty will not have a foothold for him. The capital is Tian Ye's old nest, and when he arrives in the capital, Tian Ye wants to kill Zhang Ming, but it is much easier.
Tian Ye waved his hand and said in a cold voice, "Let's go too." Speed up and try to get to the capital early. ”
.....................
In his spare time, Lin Xianfeng told Zhang Ming a lot of things about the capital. For more than two years, the five princes can be said to be frightened step by step, walking on thin ice, but fortunately, they have come step by step, and they have been supported by the prime minister.
"Now, it's just up to the emperor to think about it. Lin Fengfeng said, "The world is not peaceful, and there are even rebellions in many places, at this time, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince sits on the throne, of course, it is the most appropriate, because His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince has some experience in governing the world." But the third prince has always been in the army, and if he sits on the throne, I am afraid that more people will die at that time. ”
Zhang Ming nodded and said: "The emperor has great wisdom, I believe that the emperor will make the right choice and let His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince ascend to the throne." ”
Zhang Ming rode on horseback, and fell down with the run, breathing and spitting as if he was blending into the horse.
"People and horses are one. ”
Zhang Ming knows that his current state has indeed reached the realm of unity of man and horse. As long as you integrate into the unity of man and horse, you will not get tired when you are in a hurry, and you can sit on the horse and rise and fall, and you can also warm your spirit and true qi.
Lin Fengfeng saw Zhang Ming's state of unity of people and horses, and there was also shock in his eyes.
"It's amazing that you can ride a horse. Lin Feng said secretly in his heart, "Being able to compare with the little living Buddha is indeed outstanding." ”
After more than ten days of traveling, Zhang Ming and Lin Fengfeng finally arrived in the capital.
Looking at the tall city wall in the distance, Zhang Ming was a little shocked in his heart. This city wall is at least ten zhang high, and it is really a great project. The capital is worthy of being the largest and most magnificent city of the Great Qian Dynasty.
"Lin worship, we have finally arrived. Zhang Ming said happily.
Lin Xianfeng had a serious face, staring at the white cloth flying on the city wall.
"The emperor has died!"
Lin Xianfeng's voice trembled a little.
Zhang Ming also found the white cloth on the city wall.
"Let's go into town quickly. Lin Xianfeng said loudly.
When they came to the city gate, Lin Xianfeng took out the token, and the two did not suffer any trouble.
In the capital, white cloth is hung in front of the door of every family.
When he came to the mansion of His Royal Highness the Five Princes, the Five Princes actually came out to greet him in person, which made Zhang Ming feel flattered.
When my prince saw Zhang Ming, a smile finally appeared on his haggard face.
"Zhang Ming, you have finally come to the capital. The fifth prince nodded to Zhang Ming.
Zhang Ming sighed and said, "Your Highness, mourn." ”
After more than two years of not seeing each other, the five princes seem to have become younger, and their cultivation has also reached the middle stage of innate status. Zhang Ming felt a powerful and pure true qi energy in the body of the five princes, and the breath exhaled by the five princes was all hot and hot.
If you guessed correctly, what the Five Princes should be cultivating is the Qiankun Infinite Dao.
Qiankun Wuji Dao is a royal mastery and is known as the world's first miracle. At that time, Emperor Taizu relied on this magic skill to lay down the country of the Great Qian Dynasty, and the sects such as Leiyin Temple and Taiqing Sect did not dare to act rashly.
However, this magic skill also has a disadvantage, that is, the early improvement is very slow, and it needs to be accumulated steadily. This is also the reason why the Fifth Prince is almost fifty years old before he breaks through to become an innate martial artist. If he cultivated other divine skills, with the talents and resources of the five princes, I am afraid that he would have become an innate powerhouse long ago.
After entering the mansion, the fifth prince introduced several important ministers of the court to Zhang Ming.
Zhang Jieyuan. ”
"Zhang Jieyuan's martial arts and literary talents, we have all heard about it in the capital. ”
"Zhang Jieyuan's name, we are like thunder. ”
Zhang Ming returned the salute with his fists in a fist: "Ladies and gentlemen, seniors, Zhang Ming is just a junior, and he still needs a lot of support and care from adults and seniors." A little false name should not be true. ”
Zhang Ming became a celebrity around the five princes at a young age, and he was also a figure who could be compared with the little living Buddha of Leiyin Temple, but he did not have a little arrogance, which made the important ministers look up to him again. To achieve such an achievement, Zhang Ming is really not a fluke.
In the evening, for Zhang Ming to catch the wind and wash the dust, the five princes all used vegetarian dishes, after all, the emperor had just died, and it was not suitable for big fish and meat.
After dinner, Zhang Ming and several important ministers came to the study of the five princes to narrate.
"Ladies and gentlemen, before his death, my father wrote a holy decree to let this king take over the throne. If nothing else, after the death of his father, the king will sacrifice to the heavens and ascend the throne. The fifth prince said solemnly.
A middle-aged minister with a national character face said: "Your Highness, the more critical the time, the more careful we must be. Throughout the ages, there have been many people who have failed at the last minute. The third prince controlled the military power, and the ministers were afraid that he would not be reconciled, so he desperately used the military power to prevent His Royal Highness from ascending the throne. The general Tian Rong is the most proficient at using force. ”
The minister who spoke was a minister.
Zhang Ming also nodded and said, "Your Highness, we really have to guard against it. When he was in Anxi Mansion, the minister and the field were inseparable. Tian Ye is a person who does things without regard for the consequences, which shows that the three princes and their gang will not give up easily, even if Your Highness has a holy decree in your hands. ”
If Emperor Yang Wuji was still alive, the Holy Decree might be able to deter the Third Prince and Tian Rong, but unfortunately, the Emperor was already dead, and the Holy Decree he left behind might not have much effect.
"Smack. ”
The fifth prince slapped the table and said loudly: "They dare!"
At this time, a silver-haired eunuch suddenly appeared in the study, Zhang Ming was startled, he didn't even know how the eunuch appeared.
can hide Zhang Ming's perception, such a martial arts realm is not possessed by innate martial artists.
"God Realm powerhouse!"
Zhang Ming looked at the white-haired eunuch and said in shock.
For a long time, Zhang Ming had been speculating about how powerful the God Realm powerhouse was, and now he finally saw the God Realm powerhouse. However, Zhang Ming didn't find any clues, because this white-haired eunuch didn't have a trace of martial arts on his body, just like an ordinary person who didn't know martial arts.
"Your Highness. The white-haired eunuch bowed slightly to the five princes.
The fifth prince said to the white-haired eunuch with a little respect: "Father-in-law Liu." ”
Gonggong Liu said: "Tomorrow, His Royal Highness the Third Prince will seize power by force and forcibly ascend the throne as emperor, and I hope His Royal Highness will prepare early." ”
The fifth prince and Zhang Ming and others were all shocked, and the third prince finally had to do it.
The fifth prince gritted his silver teeth and said coldly: "Father's bones are not cold, third brother, he really dares to do such a rebellious thing! Gonggong Liu, tomorrow I hope you can block the general Tian Rong, as for the third brother, I will deal with him personally." ”
Gonggong Liu said: "Your Highness, rest assured, with our family and Lao Zhao in the palace, no matter how high Tian Rong's martial arts are, he will not dare to mess around." ”
The old Zhao that Gonggong Liu said was another Divine Realm eunuch in the palace.
Father-in-law Liu's figure flashed and disappeared.
Zhang Ming pondered for a while and said, "Your Highness, the third prince will definitely do it tonight, and it will definitely not wait until tomorrow, we will act immediately!"
The fifth prince was stunned for a moment and asked, "Zhang Ming, you are too careful, Gonggong Liu will not make a mistake." ”
Zhang Ming said: "The third prince can even deceive Gonggong Liu. It is impossible for the third prince not to guess that Gonggong Liu is spying on him, since this is the case, then he will not act according to the plan, and will definitely act in advance, so as to catch us off guard. ”
The fifth prince nodded and said, "Okay." We don't wait for tomorrow, let's do it now!"
But it was still too late, and there was a noise outside the mansion, and it was obvious that the third prince had already led troops to surround the entire mansion.
