Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. It has been late at night since Ling Zhitian, Yan Shi and others returned from the Second Prince's Mansion. Even Ling Zhitian, who has been galloping on the battlefield for many years, is still a little exhausted and is gradually showing signs of fatigue. However, in this eventful autumn, he becomes more sleepy and in his heart

Confuse

The more you demand results, the more you can sleep peacefully. This has been Ling Zhitian's purpose in doing things for many years. At this moment, in the study room of King Ling Zhitian's Mansion, Ling Zhitian, Yanshi, and Ling Zhitian were following behind them during the banquet of the seventh princess today.

Chu Guozhu.

The three of them had just sat down, but before Ling Zhitian could say anything to ask, Master Yan said first: "Prince Jin, you must have many questions about His Majesty the Emperor's assassination tonight, right?"

"Although Master Yan is not in person, he knows what I think, and I admire him!" Ling Zhitian nodded and praised: "Tonight's matter is indeed full of questions, and I hope Master Yan can help me solve it!"

"Haha!" Master Yan stroked his sparse beard, looked at Chu Guozhu on the other side of Ling Zhitian and said: "The King of Jin must have had other arrangements, but they were abandoned before they were implemented. Therefore, the confusion in your heart should be

It’s thicker than others!”

Chu Guozhu was confused by Yanshi and looked at Ling Zhitian hurriedly. Ling Zhitian covered up his embarrassment and said: "Haha, Yanshi is indeed a Yanshi. In an instant, he has a clear understanding of fire. To be honest, I do have other plans tonight!

"

Hearing this, the master's face immediately turned serious and he said, "Could it be that you really arranged for someone to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor?"

Yan Shi's words immediately shocked Chu Guozhu, and he felt the hairs all over his body stand up. He stood up suddenly and wanted to do what he wanted to do, but he saw Yan Shi chuckle lightly and said: "What, could it be that General Chu wants to silence him?"

As Ling Zhitian's brother-in-law, Chu Guozhu was also a general with real power in the military. There had never been many people in his life who could look down on him. At this moment, he suddenly felt the disdain in Yanshi's words and felt angry in his heart, especially when Yanshi guessed him.

Conspired by Ling Zhitian

, suddenly the murderous intention began to rise. However, Chu Guozhu didn't understand Yanshi, but Ling Zhitian knew how powerful he was. At this moment, he was afraid that Chu Guozhu would offend Yanshi, so he stood up hurriedly and said: "Don't be surprised by Yanshi. Guozhu is a reckless man. There is no need."

Be familiar with him!"

Yanshi did not delve into this issue, but said to Ling Zhitian: "Prince Jin, tell me your arrangements?"

Ling Zhitian sighed in his heart, in front of this person, all his thoughts seemed to be in vain, and then he said frankly: "To be honest, Master, recently the emperor has been returning to the capital one after another due to the civil and military affairs from various places returning to the capital to report on their duties, especially the eldest prince who is afraid of the second prince.

This time he made an exception and came back under the orders of His Majesty the Emperor. His body and energy are no longer what they used to be. According to various sources, His Majesty the Emperor may be reading the manual now.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

As for the title of crown prince, the eldest prince has been granted a fief by His Majesty the Emperor since he was eight years old. He has not returned to Beijing for ten years, but His Majesty the Emperor has issued a special order to recall him this time. Therefore, it is expected that if His Majesty the Emperor grants the crown prince, it is most likely that he will be the eldest prince. Those two

The prince’s planning for many years may come to nothing, so..."

"So how did he arrange it?" Master Yan already understood and went straight to the point and asked.

"So tonight, assassins are arranged to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor, and seize the throne while the eldest prince's foothold is unstable and the court is in chaos!"

Yanshi shook his head and said: "Prince Jin, although the second prince has great ambitions, he is impetuous. He thinks that by winning over a group of civil servants and generals, he can seize the throne?"

"This..." Ling Zhitian was speechless for a moment.

Yanshi slowly said: "Destroying the elders and establishing the young has been the way of creating chaos since ancient times. No matter how many powerful officials he has won over, you have to see one thing more clearly than him. The majority of people in the civil and military dynasties who follow ancient laws are definitely in the majority.

, especially Left Prime Minister Xia Yan!"

Ling Zhitian nodded and agreed: "I know this, this matter is indeed too radical, but if this matter can be accomplished, it is not impossible for the second prince to ascend the throne!"

"Confused!" Hearing Ling Zhitian's words, Master Yan said angrily: "Not to mention that the second prince is young and impulsive, could it be that, King Jin, you act randomly before you understand your opponent? Let me ask you, what do you think of the eldest prince?

How much do you know?"

"This..." Of course Ling Zhitian knew that what Master Yan was asking was definitely not the eldest prince that he knew, and he was speechless for a moment.

"There are rumors in the imperial capital that the eldest prince does not think about government affairs. He does not leave the house all day long. He only cares about banquets in the palace and entertaining famous people to drink and have fun. All matters of the fief are left to his subordinates to handle, and he does not pay attention to them. Is this what it is?

?”

Ling Zhitian did not answer. He picked up the tea cup and waited for the speaker to continue: "Ningchuan, the fiefdom of the eldest prince, used to be a remote and desolate land. Since the founding of the Chu Kingdom, it has needed state treasury subsidies to maintain it almost every year. If it weren't for this place, it would be

empire north

The portal is needed to intimidate the Iron Gate Kingdom and the city-states in the northwest. The Great Chu Empire has long given up on Ningchuan, which cannot make ends meet. Since the eldest prince went to Ningchuan, in recent years, have you heard that the imperial capital has received Ningchuan's request for food and salary?

Memorial for supply?"

Ling Zhitian put down the tea cup and nodded: "We have never!"

"It was rumored by outsiders that the eldest prince entertained famous people all day long to drink and have fun, but they didn't know that the people he invited were wise men from Ningchuan and even the surrounding areas! As a king, it is much more important to make good use of people than to do things well. If these people are not there,

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

, How can the eldest prince achieve what Ningchuan looks like today with his own strength!? The people of the world don’t care who conferred the title of king. What they care most about is three meals a day. Whoever can do it, they will follow him. The eldest prince has been there for several years.

After careful analysis, Ningchuan has already gained its support, not to mention that there are still a hundred thousand troops from the empire guarding the northern frontier?"

At this moment, Ling Zhitian's back was filled with chills and cold sweat broke out. He said in shame, "Master Yan, I was negligent!"

Yanshi did not hesitate and said: "How are the arrangements for the assassination of His Majesty the Emperor tonight?"

Ling Zhitian motioned to Chu Guozhu, but Chu Guozhu's eyes were dull at this moment and he did not respond. At this moment, if it was said that he had wanted to silence him because of what he had planned without knowing Yan Shi, but after listening to Yan Shi's words,

The admiration in his heart was beyond words. When Ling Zhitian signaled again, he said urgently: "One of the dancers tonight is an assassin arranged by us. When the whole hall is drunk and slacking off, he will assassinate His Majesty the Emperor!"

Without saying much, Master Yan said with cold eyes: "Shut up!"

Chu Guozhu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ling Zhitian, who made a "kill" gesture without hesitation, and then Chu Guozhu said goodbye to the two of them and walked out.

After Chu Guozhu left, Yanshi said calmly: "The King of Jin does not need to feel sorry. Those who plan for great things should eliminate all hidden dangers, protect themselves first, and be in an invincible position before they can make a difference!"

Ling Zhitian cupped his hands and said with respect: "Tonight I heard Master Yan's words, and I suddenly became enlightened and learned a lesson!"

Yanshi shook his head and said calmly: "King Jin, you have achieved great things since ancient times! If you don't plan for the world, you can't plan for a moment; if you don't plan for the overall situation, you can't plan for a region! You were born in the army, led millions of people to attack cities and territories, and since then

It goes without saying, but above the imperial court, you lack the skills of an emperor!"

Ling Zhitian nodded, Yan Shi still thought to himself and said: "You must have some doubts in your mind. Why do I leave the Second Prince alone, but am willing to be your guest?"

After Yanshi finished speaking, Ling Zhitian no longer concealed it and said: "With the talent of Yanshi, it is really unfair to be a guest of my sect, and I really don't understand it!"

"Haha!" After a chuckle, Master Yan said, "I wonder if King Jin has ever thought about usurping the throne?"

Hearing this, Ling Zhitian was shocked at first, and then said with a smile: "Master Yan is serious, you can't say this nonsense!"

Ignoring Ling Zhitian's shock, Yanshi said calmly: "Has King Jin ever heard of the 'Emperor's Alliance'?"
