Ever since the last Tongquetai night banquet, the little fire in Shi Xuan’s heart has been fluttering and burning.

Although Shi Hu held on, Shi Xuan knew that his condition was getting worse day by day.

In recent days, Wang Mo has been getting closer and closer to Sikong Li Nong and Shangshu Ling, which makes him feel uneasy.

"Hao Zhi met Zhang Liang secretly for an hour last night." Yang Bai, his favorite minister, cupped his hands and said.

Hao Zhi is Shi Tao's close eunuch, Zhang Liang is Li Nong's subordinate, a eunuch and a general are together, it is self-evident what they are discussing.

Li Nong reluctantly suppressed the incident at Heiyun Mountain, and Shi Tao's insidious efforts allowed Shi Hu to expose the matter.

So there must be some agreement between the two.

"Zhao Yu, a small county in Dai County, only has more than 300 households. Qin Gong led 30,000 cavalry to attack it. His intention was not to unite the state, but to gain military power and establish prestige. In the past few days, people from Qin Gong's office have been communicating with each other.

Ma Qiu, Wang Lang, Zhang Ju, etc. all have contacts, so Your Highness must be on guard!" Zhao Sheng, another disciple with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, said with his hands.

Shi Tao has always been pampered by Shi Hu and is unscrupulous in any situation.

If these people in the Jie Zhao court were won over by him, nothing would happen to Shi Xuan in the future.

Moreover, the purpose of sending 30,000 troops to attack small forts this time could not be more obvious.

Master military power, sort out prestige, and prepare for the future.

"Your Highness must not sit still and wait for death!" Yang Bai knelt on his knees.

"If you continue to break up, you will inevitably suffer chaos. Your Highness, do you remember the two previous princes?" Zhao Sheng was a scholar, and every word he said came to Shi Xuan's heart.

Since the founding of Jie Zhao, no prince has been safe and sound.

Shi Le's prince Shi Hong was killed by Shi Hu and his whole clan was wiped out.

More than 20 members of the former prince Shi Sui's family, including young and old, were chopped into pieces and stuffed into a coffin.

One is Shi Hu’s cousin, and the other is Shi Hu’s biological son.

Now it's his turn as the prince.

Shi Xuan's eyes became more and more determined, "If you can deal with this, Gu can enter the West Palace and grant all of Shi Tao's fiefs to you! If Lao Wu dies, Lao Hu will definitely go to the funeral, and he can take the opportunity to do something big!"

Thinking of everything that happened over the years, Shi Xuan was filled with anger and directly called Shi Hu "Old Hu".

Zhao Sheng frowned and said, "The nights are long and the dreams are many. Your Highness is the crown prince. If something unexpected happens to the king, the crown prince ascends the throne. It is natural that an edict can make Duke Qin sit down and die."

"This thief has many followers and 30,000 cavalry. It is difficult to make him obey with an edict. If he hooks up with the third and seventh brothers, things will happen again."

Shi Hu's disciples were quite brave and good at leading armies. Shi Tao also defeated Shuofang Xianbei back then, so how could Shi Xuan feel at ease if he was left outside?

The other brothers are not just ordinary people, Shi Jian, Shi Zhi is in Xiangguo, Shibao is in Chang'an, Shi Bin is in Taiyuan, Shi Zun is in Pengcheng, and most of the others are leading troops.

Several confidants looked at each other and could only say: "Your Highness is wise!"

Sikong Fuzhong.

There was a hint of sadness on Li Nong's eyebrows.

Although the incident in Heiyun Mountain has been smoothed over, it is not over yet.

If Shi Xuan and Shi Tao take care of them, sooner or later a greater disaster will arise.

Chang Wei cupped his hands and said: "Sikong must not fall into the dispute between Shi Tao and Shi Xuan."

"Why?" Li Nong was in a bad mood, Shi Hu was getting worse and worse, and the chaos in Jie and Zhao was imminent. I don't know how many days he, Sikong, could be able to sit still.

Shi Hu treats him well, but Shi Hu's sons may not be so.

Chang Wei said: "The Shi family's disciples led the troops outside, which was the chaos of the kings of the Sima family at that time. Shi Xuan and Shi Tao had neither strategy nor prestige. They were cruel and unkind. How could they last long if they were not under the leadership of Lord Zhao?"

"The Kushi clan has been tyrannical in the world for a long time, and all the disciples are killing each other, and they will be destroyed by heaven. Sikong holds hundreds of thousands of beggars in his hands, raises his arms and shouts, and the responders will gather from the north and south of the river. He can sweep away the dust and restore our Han Dynasty

Jiaheshan!" Bo Wu's face flushed with excitement.

After joining Guangzong, Li Nong treated him well, like an old friend reunited, and he always kept him with him.

Bo Wu is not involved in any forces in Ye City. He has an upright personality and is safe to use, so he does not shy away from confidential matters.

The hall instantly became quiet.

Only the heavy breathing of a few people was heard.

However, Li Nong waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. The King of Heaven treats me very well, how can I bear it?"

"Sikong!" Bo Wu stood up angrily.

Li Nong glanced at him coldly and said nothing. Bo Wu's passionate blood immediately cooled down, and all his impassioned words were choked back in his throat.

Chang Wei sighed in his heart. If he was furious, it means that Bo Wu's words hit his heart. But now it is tepid, which means that he has never considered this matter. "If my prediction is correct, Shi Tao's northern expedition will be better."

, is to establish prestige in the military and prepare for the fight for position."

Li Nong said: "Did you know that this was done intentionally by the King of Heaven? Once Duke Qin returns, it will be the day when the prince is deposed."

Chang Wei smiled bitterly and said: "This move by Lord Zhao is actually a way to bring disaster."

"Misfortune and fortune are the affairs of the King of Heaven. We, my ministers, just have to fulfill our duties loyally. If the King of Heaven wants to establish the Duke of Qin, we will assist the Duke of Qin. No need to say more! Don't forget that the King of Heaven is still there!" Li Nong was only fifty years old.

A few words and deeds always reveal an old attitude from the inside out.

Following Shi Hu, enjoying decades of glory and wealth, his mentality has long since changed.

At this moment, a servant reported outside the door: "Sikong, Xiuchenghou is asking to see you."

Xiuchenghou is none other than Shi Min.

Li Nong was not the only one paying attention to the situation at this time, as the dispute between Shi Xuan and Shi Tao involved many people.

Shi Hu's health is deteriorating, and many people are worried.

Shi Min's father, Ran Zhan, was also a beggar general and had a good relationship with Li Nong. Unfortunately, he died early in the battle.

Not long after, a man came over with his head held high. He was eight feet tall, with a face like a bright moon and a nose like a gallbladder. As soon as he entered the door, a gust of wind was brought in.

Li Nong's twilight years are in sharp contrast to his heroic spirit.

Both Bo Wu and Chang Wei's eyes lit up.

Shi Min is a descendant of the Beggar Army and the adopted grandson of Shi Hu, so he naturally has many advantages.

"Where did Ji Nu come from?" Li Nong and Ran Zhan are peers, and now they are Sikong, so it is not out of character to call him by his nickname in private.

Adopted grandsons are not real grandsons.

No matter how kind Shi Hu is to him, his real treatment is still much worse. So far, he is just a guerrilla general and Xiuchenghou, which is very different from Li Nong.

There are so many Marquis Jie and Zhao, and generals with mixed numbers are everywhere.

"I'm just returning from my hunting trip today. I passed by Sikong Mansion and came here to pay my respects to Sikong." Shi Min glanced at Bo Wu and Chang Wei.

Li Nong handed over his hand and said, "Marquis Xiu Cheng is determined."

Shi Min said intentionally or unintentionally: "The king's health has improved slightly recently, but yesterday he was still complaining about why Sikong has not been in court for so long."

Li Nong and Chang Wei were both shocked.

No matter how Shi Xuan and Shi Tao fight, as long as Shi Hu is still alive, Yecheng will not be in chaos.

Although Shi Hu's health is deteriorating, he has not yet reached the point where he has run out of fuel.

"Thank you so much for the reminder from Marquis Xiucheng. Tomorrow Nong will go to see the King of Heaven." Li Nong handed over his hand again.

"Why are you thanking me? You and I are in the same family. I hope Sikong will take care of you in the future."
