Chapter 37 Precise Strategy
"You now know that you are a citizen of Zhao State, Your Highness the Crown Prince. Why didn't you come when something happened? If you don't restrain the people of Zhao State well, you will cause such a big mess, and you still have the nerve to stop it. I want to tell my father,
I'll punish you for incompetent supervision." The second prince said indignantly.
Guo Huaiyu also came to his senses, and immediately said loudly: "Second Prince, Prince, please calm down. I will bring my brothers from the Imperial Guard to share your Majesty's worries and calm down the anger of the Yan Kingdom."
"Who gave you such courage?" Prince Jia snorted coldly, his tone as cold as water on a winter night: "Step on the bodies of the people of Zhao to share their worries?"
Guo Huaiyu's face turned slightly red and he looked nervous: "Your Highness... you can't say that. The second prince is also sharing your worries for Your Majesty!"
"What qualifications do you have to replace the second prince?" the prince shouted sharply.
"Replacing or not, what does it have to do with you?" The second prince said impatiently: "Guo Huaiyu, why don't you dismiss the irrelevant people for me!"
"Give it to me..." Guo Huaiyu did not dare to say any more and was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat.
"Your Majesty has a decree!" The prince shouted: "Li Mu has done great service in quelling the chaos and will temporarily take over the post of the Military Guard Camp!"
"You pretended to pass the imperial edict and stole my position!" The second prince shouted loudly with a gloomy face.
"Detain me!" The prince sighed.
"Let's see who dares to take custody!" the second prince shouted. Before he could finish his words, his face darkened, he waved his right hand, and Dou Ran rushed out.
There was a loud "whoop", and the prince hurriedly raised his hand and came out.
The two forces dispersed as soon as they touched, and the second prince's body swayed and retreated several steps away.
The prince said calmly: "That's all!"
The second prince's face turned red, and a murderous intent flashed through his eyes. He raised his right hand, and with a ding, the sword was already in his hand: "Zhao Jia, do you dare to take my sword?"
"Why don't you dare?" The corners of the prince's lips curved slightly.
Li Mu rose and fell and snatched the weapon from the hands of the second prince: "Now is a troubled time, so I would like to ask the two princes to suspend the wrath of thunder."
"Protect the second prince, take Guo Huaiyu down and beat him twenty times with a cane!" Li Mu ordered.
"Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, save me!" Guo Huaiyu shouted with a bitter face.
"Li Mu, you bastard, anyone who dares to bully me will avenge you!
"Killing the common people and assassinating this king, second brother, are you the one avenging your personal revenge?" the prince said angrily.
"Zhao Jia, if you dare to put me under house arrest, I will sue my father." The second prince shouted loudly.
"I'll be with you anytime." The prince smiled coldly.
"Li Mu, listen to my order and protect the people of Handan!"
"yes!"
"Investigate the truth of the matter, immediately notify the Northern Camp, and pay attention to the movements of Yan State at any time..."
Li Mu was stunned, raised his eyebrows, and responded in a deep voice: "Yes!"
A long wind blew, and the people were leaving in all directions. The streets became quiet, with only the sound of the guards walking. In this noisy Handan street, it seemed like a huge farce, with a mocking sneer.
.
"Your Majesty, what do you think?"
"This matter can only be reduced to a major matter, a trivial matter," the prince pondered slowly for a long time, as if it was extremely difficult to speak, frowning tightly, and finally said with difficulty.
"To spread rumors, the people of Zhao State broke the legs of the envoys of Yan State and made the people of Yan State crawl back. Can they really tell the truth?"
"The envoy of the Yan Kingdom, could it be him?" Li Mu opened his eyes fiercely, remembering the look in Phoenix's eyes before leaving, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I want to find out who the second prince has seen and talked to, go and
No matter where you go, even if you have diarrhea and stay in the latrine for a while, I will check everything!"
The prince's mind was quick and he immediately grasped the key to Li Mu's words. His expression suddenly changed and he said in surprise: "Li Mu, do you think this mutiny was not an accident?"
"By accident?" Li Mu laughed angrily. He turned around, looked at the prince intently, and said coldly: "Princess Gege was attacked on the street. Do you really think that the people of Zhao State like beautiful men to the point of going crazy?
, what is even more bold is that the people of Handan rebuked His Majesty one-sidedly, and some even fanned the wind at the street to incite the people. Do you really think that the people of Handan can be incited so easily, and they happen to know the itinerary of the two palace officials.
, and know that they are there! Even Concubine An is involved. With so many coincidences, don’t you think the coincidences are a little too weird? "
The prince closed his mouth tightly and could not utter a word. Li Mu's face became more and more gloomy, and he continued to say coldly: "From the beginning to the end, we did not get the slightest hint of news, not even the slightest bit of intelligence, not even the second prince.
Guo Huaiyu next to us came out with the imperial guards, and we were all still confused! Such a strict plan, such a sophisticated deployment, such an interlocking and step-by-step press, do you still think it is a coincidence? "
Li Mu and Zhao Jia looked at each other, dark thoughts emerged from their hearts, and no matter what they did, they could not suppress them.
Zhao Jia nodded and said seriously: "You are right, there are footsteps of death walking into Zhao country, and there is a hand that we cannot see that has already laid out this net. When we are not paying attention,
It is hanging over our heads. It seems that someone not only infiltrated the court, infiltrated into Handan City, but also infiltrated into the Ouchi Imperial Palace!"
"Qin? Or Yan?"
"It's hard for us to say, but if the people from the Qin State were among the guests, they would definitely not act like this, and they would not reveal their ambitions so early. The Yan State is still relatively weak. Using such methods,
Gong Dou's method is pretty much the same, but the Yan State doesn't have the ability to do such a precise strategy."
The prince frowned and said, "Who is that?"
"I don't know." Li Ce raised his head, looked at the thick black clouds rolling in the sky, shook his head slowly, and said softly: "I really don't know, but I can already smell the conspiracy. He is leaving us."
It’s not far away, maybe, it’s right next to us.”
The wind howled, and my thoughts were like being thrown into a lake of stones, rippling around in circles.
Li Mu didn't know that just when he was worried that someone from Zhao would retaliate, the carriage of the Prince of Qin had just left Handan City. Two hours ago, he led a small group of people through Handan and headed towards the west road.
go.
In the north of the country there are Hulin and the Xiongnu, in the east there is the powerful Qi, in the south there is the powerful Wei, and in the west there is the country of tigers and wolves, Qin. Not far to the west, it is the border of the Yan Kingdom, which is also the real purpose of Phoenix's trip.
