Chapter 39: The Sorrow of the Second Prince

On a hillside outside Makino Castle, Wei Ziyan looked at the castle that seemed to have not changed. The shadow of the beast tide has long since dissipated, and the people are entering and exiting the city gate in an orderly manner.

Wei Ziyan's last bit of luck was completely ruined, and his plan really failed. His hand gripped the horse's reins tightly, trying to keep his emotions alive and not let himself lose his temper.

Wei Ziyan looked into the distance quietly, not knowing what he was thinking. The subordinates behind him didn't dare to step forward, but silently guarded behind him.

After a long time, Wei Ziyan sighed, "Let's go, let's go into the city." ”

He originally wanted to go back directly, but he thought of Zixin behind him. Think about the Haikou he boasted in front of him, think about the way he was invincible before, trying his best to mock Zi Xin. Wei Ziyan still decided to stay, and he couldn't just go back.

He wanted to stay, to let them know that this time it was not a crime of war, but providence, and that his plan would have been perfect. Although he was defeated and honored, he must not go back in disgrace.

At this time, he thought of Li Jing again, the Li Jing who should have died long ago in his own conspiracy.

Yes, he hasn't lost yet, and this time he plans to at least kill Li Jing. In this way, that Wen Taishi will not be completely directed to Zixin. Big brother still has a chance, and my plan is not in vain.

Why are you so sad, I'm not a loser. After all, I was invincible from the very beginning of this fight. As soon as Li Jing died, we had already broken the game, and I had already won life for my eldest brother.

Thinking of this, the second prince raised his head again, eliminating the previous loss caused by the failure of the plan. As a victor, he entered Makino Castle.

The cronies behind Wei Ziyan were also very happy to see that the second prince had come out of the shadow of defeat so quickly. The overall momentum is no longer so decadent, and it is no longer so lifeless due to the influence of Wei Ziyan.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and suddenly, Wei Ziyan suddenly spat blood from his mouth and fell directly from the horse. All of a sudden, the cronies were in a panic.

What's the matter, could there be an assassin, all the cavalry drew their weapons and looked around nervously. The street, which was originally lively but calm, was completely chaotic.

The people didn't know what was going on, and began to flee in all directions.

At this time, Wei Ziyan had also been helped up, but he didn't explain what happened, why he suddenly vomited blood and fell from his horse, but stared at the front with his eyes tight.

That's right, it's those two people, what's going on, why is Li Jing still here, isn't he going to complete the task at all. So what is my plan, and what is the purpose of everything I have done in the face of the world's condemnation?

Just now, he saw that the thorn in his eye was happily snuggled in the arms of a man, and that man was Li Jing, who should have died a long time ago. That's why he vomited blood, and he fell off his horse.

At this time, their laughter and happiness were so dazzling in Wei Ziyan's eyes. Under such a strong stimulus, Wei Ziyan's mouthful of blood was eager to spurt out, but he swallowed it back.

He knew that at this time, he could not fall. Lying weakly in the arms of a cronie, he shouted in a low voice: "Go, let's go, go back to Chaoge." ”

He didn't dare to stay here any longer, for fear that if he continued to be stimulated, he would be angry to death here.

At this moment, it is not an exaggeration for him to say that all thoughts are lost, but he can endure for so many years, and he is naturally not an ordinary person. The more this time, the more he can calm down, he must return to Chaoge as soon as possible.

The current situation is very bad, Li Jing has not been killed, and after some pressure from the beast tide, he must have a closer relationship with Zixin. With the military merit of resisting the tide of beasts, it became logical for Li Jing to take over as the chief soldier of Makino, and everything went in the direction he originally expected the worst.

And their own strength in this struggle is also greatly reduced, and the originally close brotherhood between themselves and the eldest prince has also been estranged, and their situation will be even more difficult under the elimination of each other's strengths. He knew that he couldn't do anything, and he couldn't leave this mess to the naïve, overly ideal big brother.

So he warned himself to be calm and not lose his mind. At this time, the hatred for Shi Niang was nothing, forget it, and you must hold on.

Through this temptation, Wei Ziyan was not completely without gains, at least he knew his father's attitude. If you do such an outrageous thing, you will definitely not be able to hide it from your father. But so far, he hasn't asked. He didn't know what his father meant, but the eldest brother shouldn't have completely lost the opportunity.

In fact, Wei Ziyan was also very puzzled why his father had not established a prince for a long time.

In terms of system, although the three brothers were born to the same mother, Zixin was the son-in-law. In terms of talent, Zixin is also Wen Taowu, slightly better than the eldest prince.

However, Di Yi did not entrust Zixin with important responsibilities again, so that he could only exert influence on the imperial court through military strength such as Huang Feihu. As for Wei Ziqi, he often explained some important things to him, that is, the second prince, and he had many more opportunities to contact government affairs than Zixin.

It is precisely because of this that there are people up and down the big business who think that this big prince should have a chance. Because the right to inherit the throne ultimately has to obey Emperor Yi, what system, what talent is actually nothing before the edict is written.

In history, because of his own preferences, it was not without emperors who passed on the throne casually, so such a huge primogeniture force was formed in the court.

However, his father Wei Ziyan knows that although he is not the kind of holy king in ancient times, he is not mediocre. And in fact, Wei Ziyan felt that his father really liked Zixin, and even sometimes he wondered if he and his eldest brother were just the chess pieces of his father and the third brother.

However, the emperor's mind is really difficult to guess, and Wei Ziyan can't figure it out. But now that the struggle for the throne has begun, there is no way back. Even if the two of them are just pawns, if you have to fight as hard as you can, or play such a role well.

Finally, after looking at Li Jing and the others at the moment, Wei Ziyan no longer hesitated, boarded a carriage found by his subordinates, and drove towards Chaoge.

I was completely defeated this time, but it was not over. Wait, Chaoge is the final battlefield, it's too early to talk about victory or defeat now.

The street was suddenly so flustered, and the No. 100 cavalry was so conspicuous, Li Jing and Shi Niang certainly discovered the existence of Wei Ziyan early.

But they turned a blind eye and continued to wander around on their own. From beginning to end, he didn't say a word in the past, and completely ignored it. Because now that Wei Ziyan really has nothing in the eyes of Li Jing and the others, there is no threat.

And this is also the biggest ridiculousness of Wei Ziyan, because until now he doesn't know Li Jing's true strength. didn't know at all that Li Jing never regarded him as an opponent.

Immortals and mortals were originally people from two worlds, but they were forced to live in the same world. This has to be said to be a kind of sadness for the mortal side who are in a weak position.
