The first thousand one hundred and eighty-six chapters
This time, Xia Shenchuan obeyed the order of the King of Western Shu and led the army out of Shu towards Zhangcheng. Wang Ke asked for leave on the grounds that his mother was ill at home. Considering that the King of Western Shu was not feeling well, something might happen at any time.
Unexpectedly, there might be problems with the safety of his family in Ba Mansion at that time, so Xia Shenchuan gave him leave.
He left the person he trusted the most to keep his family safe. But he never expected that the person he trusted the most was a spy sent by someone else.
Wang Ke knelt down in front of Zhu Yingjie. In a certain sense, he, the captain of the personal soldiers, represented his master, General Xia Shenchuan.
"General Wang, now you can explain clearly what is going on in front of His Highness the Prince. Don't worry, as long as you tell the truth, His Highness the Prince is magnanimous and will not make things difficult for you." A picture of a good old man.
After standing up, Tang Tianhe looked at Wang Ke and said seriously.
When Tang Tianhe said this, Zhu Yingjie also nodded and said: "That's right, General Wang, you don't have to worry, just say whatever you have, Xiao Wang will keep you safe. If you make great contributions, you will also be rewarded."
.”
As soon as the word "heavy reward" came out, a flash of light seemed to flash in Wang Ke's eyes, and then he said as if he had made some kind of decision: "The eldest prince values the general so much, how can the general not accept the praise?
That's it, the last general will tell everything he knows. The eldest prince, General Xia is sending troops back. He has united with the little prince. They want to carry out military advice and seize the throne."
"What?" Although Tang Tianhe had already said it just now and was somewhat prepared, Zhu Yingjie was still shocked when Jing Wangke said this.
Minister Yu Yong standing aside was also panicked, but on the surface he still pretended to be calm and asked, "General Wang, I want to ask you, why did General Xia make such a choice? Why did he fall to the side of the little prince?
.”
This is what I want an explanation for. Everything happens for a reason, and people cannot make major decisions without reason.
In response to this, Wang Ke had already prepared a reply: "Master Yu, didn't His Highness the Prince want to marry General Xia before? But after being rejected, the Little Prince sent someone to find the general and said that His Highness the Prince wanted to marry General Xia.
I already have a grudge against him. If His Highness the eldest prince comes to power, I am afraid that General Xia will not get any good results. That is why I made such a choice."
"It's true, it's true." Hearing this answer, Zhu Yingjie had an ugly look on his face. He originally sent people to propose marriage to the Xia family precisely because he took a fancy to Xia Shenchuan's status in the army and thought of winning over him.
, it will be easier to get to the top in the future. Who would have thought that the two sides would become enmity because of this incident?
Zhu Yingjie obviously believed it. When Tang Tianhe saw all this, he was very happy. This was equivalent to one-third of the plan being completed. So he struck while the iron was hot and said: "Your Highness, we have already advanced the plan."
If we know the truth, we must make a decision early, otherwise once Xia Shenchuan comes to Ba Mansion with his army, we will have no choice but to capture him without mercy."
"Yes, yes, we are going to do something." Zhu Yingjie nodded first, but then shook his head and said: "But what can we do? My father is in a coma now and has no idea what is happening outside.
Even if Xiao Wang tells his father the matter, he may not necessarily believe it."
"His Royal Highness, since your Majesty does not believe it, then we can only rely on ourselves, and we can only strike first to gain advantage." Tang Tianhe had long known that Zhu Yingjie's abilities were limited, especially when it came to major issues, he lacked the ability to make decisions.
Ability, he simply said that he would make the decision for him.
"Is it better to strike first?" Yu Yong spoke first, and then looked at Tang Tianhe with a surprised look. Obviously, he did not expect that this man usually seemed not to care about political affairs, but he was so bold when doing things.
Zhu Yingjie also didn't expect it. But he didn't have time to think about it now. He only knew that if he didn't do anything, his life would probably be lost.
Thinking of the glory and wealth he now has, Zhu Yingjie said cruelly, "Master Tang, what do you think we should do now?"
Finally it was Zhu Yingjie's turn to ask for advice. This was what Tang Tianhe wanted. While he was happy in his heart, he also pretended to be puzzled and said, "Your Highness, you are the only one we are waiting for. Of course, what do you say about us?"
Just do it.”
"Ah... Well, Mr. Yu, do you have any good ideas to deal with the situation at hand?" Zhu Yingjie looked at Yu Yong and asked.
Speaking of Yu Yong, he is quite intelligent and eloquent. But the problem happened too suddenly. Before, all they had been thinking about was how to get the king to appoint the eldest prince as his heir.
I have never thought of achieving this wish through other means. Now that things have happened suddenly, how can he have any idea if you let him for a while?
"This... I guess with the wisdom of the Tang leader, there should be a solution." Yu Yong did not say that he had no idea, but put the problem on Tang Tianhe.
"Well, yes, I think so too. Head Tang, the incident happened suddenly. You got the news earlier than us. You should have considered what to do next. Let's talk about it." Zhu Yingjie nodded.
, said the donkey going downhill.
"Well... well, since it is the order of His Highness the Prince, Tang does not dare to disobey it. The matter is urgent now. I am afraid that General Xia will return with his army at any time. If so, how long will it take for us to do so?
There are not many left. And for the sake of our wealth and lives, we have to resort to strange tactics."
"Strange move? What is a strange move?" Zhu Yingjie asked with great interest.
"The purpose of this surprising move is that we must strike first, control the palace, control the little prince, and if necessary, capture the king in our hands." After laying the groundwork for a long time, Tang Tianhe finally gave his thoughts.
Said it out.
"What? Are you talking about forcing the throne?" Zhu Yingjie understood what he understood at this moment, and his expression changed drastically. This is tantamount to using force to obtain the throne. This is not justifiable, and future generations will
How will they view themselves, and how will history books record this period of history?
Compared with Zhu Jieying's worries, Yu Yong standing beside him would not think so much. In his opinion, nothing is more important than his future glory and wealth, not to mention that his own wealth and life are also involved here.
Already.
"Your Highness, I see that the words of the head of the Tang Dynasty are very reasonable. The so-called doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times means that the little prince wants to cause trouble for us first. How can we not fight back? The so-called rabbit is anxious.
He even bites people. Besides, the eldest prince should have been the first choice for the throne. You have won the throne and it is just and legitimate. No one else can say anything."
After following Zhu Yingjie for a long time, Yu Yong naturally understands him. This is just a person who wants to be nothing else and wants to build a memorial arch. Where in the world can all the benefits be taken by one person? Where in history?
Isn’t it true that an emperor’s hands are stained with blood?
Yu Yong said this, which dispelled some of Zhu Yingjie's concerns. He also began to agree with the proposal, but still said with doubts, "Master Tang, if we go by what you said, what are our chances of winning? The palace
The guards are all loyal to my father, so I'm afraid they won't obey our orders easily."
"It doesn't matter. There are still some useful people in the Tang Sect who are loyal and reliable. They are all willing to do their best for the eldest prince's affairs." Tang Tianhe smiled at the corner of his mouth. When the matter reached this point, it was already half successful.
...
Western Shu Palace.
Although it is not as good as the Daliang Palace, it is still majestic and majestic. It occupies a large area, so the number of guards guarding here is quite large, as many as ten thousand. Every two thousand people form a team, divided into five shifts, and they take turns to guard.
In addition, there are two teams of personnel on standby at any time, making it very difficult for anyone to make plans here.
Facts also proved that no one would have the idea to come here. After all, facing six thousand palace guards wearing armor and holding swords, even if the Tang Sect tried its best to come, they would not get the slightest advantage.
The king is in poor health and rests in bed. As a result, everyone in the entire palace is cautious when walking, for fear of causing trouble for their own reasons and disturbing the king's recovery. If this is the case, they will definitely be beaten to death.
of.
It was in the afternoon, the weather was very hot, and there were very few people walking around in the palace. In the past, it was also an extremely quiet time, and many maids and eunuchs were dozing off against some wooden beams. At this moment,
Even the sound of a cat meowing would be so sudden. But at this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps came to my ears, causing everyone who was resting to look here with puzzled faces.
"Who is it? No noise is allowed in the palace, don't you know... Oh, the general has met His Highness the Prince." The movement here quickly attracted the attention of the palace guards, and then someone stood up, but
When he saw that the leader of the arrival was Zhu Yingjie, he quickly greeted him.
"Take it down." After Zhu Yingjie, who was wearing a brocade and yellow robe, snorted coldly, Wang Ke, who was standing behind him, led his men and strode forward, and the captain was taken down and restrained.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?" The commander who was being held down looked puzzled and shouted loudly, "This is the commander who guards the palace. He was appointed by the king himself. You have no right to arrest him.
.”
"Kill." Wang could see that he was still shouting, so he snorted coldly and then raised the knife. At that moment, blood spattered, and a bloody mouth appeared on the neck of the commander. While the blood flow continued, others also
He fell to the ground, covering his neck with his hands, and seemed to want to say something, but it was clear that he soon lost strength and could not make any sound.
See how ferocious the Duke is. This chapter has been completed!
