King Yanchi Zhao Bing, counselor Nalan Youci, and the crown prince Zhao Zhuzheng were sitting around the table.
Zhao Bing looked worried and sighed from time to time. Nalan Youci on the side also frowned. Obviously, they did not want to see the news that Zhao Kai became the crown prince.
Zhao Bing asked:
"With Zhao Kai's character, once he takes the throne, he will immediately start to cut down the vassal. Among the vassal kings, I am the strongest in Southern Xinjiang, so I am afraid that I will inevitably bear the brunt. According to what Mr. Wang sees, how should we break the situation now?
"
Zhao Bing had 200,000 soldiers in southern Xinjiang. As the leader of the six vassal kings, he also controlled the geographical location, and he had an outstanding counselor like Nalan Youci. It is impossible to say that he had no ambition.
Although Nalan Youci is nearly sixty years old, it can be seen from his face that he was a handsome man when he was young. After a moment of silence, he sighed softly and said:
"I didn't expect that the Zhao family in Tai'an City had lost their hearts over the years and cut off their arms. Then a character like Zhao Kai came out. They were really lucky! Now Zhao Dun is obviously trying to build momentum for him. Soon, I'm afraid that the whole
Tai'an City is already under his control.
Fortunately, in addition to Tai'an City, all the major vassal kings have their own ambitions. Cao Changqing of Western Chu is also planning to restore the country. The Taiping Order of Beimang will not sit idly by and do nothing. It is just an extra chess player in Zhao Kai. Who will win?
Not yet known.
What we need to worry about most now is whether Zhao Kai is willing to play chess with us. The key is that this person is too strong. If he overturns the chessboard, it will be difficult.
So no matter what, he must be kept on the chessboard."
The young prince Zhao Zhu said:
"But now in this world, besides Wang Xianzhi and Tuoba Bodhisattva, who can contain him? Facing such a master, it is useless to rely on our two hundred thousand troops. We have already sent people to test Wang Xianzhi before. I think
We want him to have a battle with Zhao Kai for the No. 1 spot in the world, but he is completely unmoved."
"At the moment, we are still mainly dormant. Let's see what Cao Changqing and Beimang do. The more troubled the times, the more we need to strike early. In addition, we can also contact the Guanyin Sect in the South China Sea. It is said that they have a close relationship with the immortals. Maybe
It can bring unexpected help to us.
And Xie Guanying, I’m sure he won’t be willing to be lonely.”
“That’s all we have to do now”
the other side
Beimang,
Also at the same table, Beimang Empress, Taiping Ling, Tuoba Bodhisattva, and Dongyue Prince Consort Wang Sui, who were also among the four famous generals of the Spring and Autumn Period. These four most powerful people in Beimang were also discussing Zhao.
Things about regular script.
Empress Murong asked:
"Emperor Master, will Zhao Kai's control of Liyang have an impact on our plans? It was because of this person that we in Beimang Jianghu couldn't hold our heads high! Together with nearly ten thousand cavalry, they all died at the hands of this person."
After Taiping thought for a moment, he said:
"Zhao Kaiwen Tao's military strategy, it is expected that he will become the prince.
Your Majesty, I'm just a counselor. To deal with the masters, you still have to look to General Tuoba. I heard that the general's martial arts has improved recently. I guess it shouldn't be a problem to contain the second best in the world, right?
In fact, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Being in a temple, Zhao Kai will definitely not be able to take the lead. The affairs of the court are enough for him to be overwhelmed, and it should be difficult to make a greater improvement in strength.
As long as he is contained, Li Yang will hardly become a serious problem. Besides, Zhao Kai's enemy is not only us, but also the entire fairy world!
This is an excellent opportunity, General Tuoba must seize it, maybe the immortal will turn to help Beimang, and at the same time he can get more benefits and strengthen his own strength!"
Tuoba Bodhisattva also nodded when he heard this. He also had a brief fight with Zhao Kai and had an understanding of Zhao Kai's strength. His strength has improved these days. Even if no one else helps, the problem of containing Zhao Kai will be solved.
Not much, let alone getting gifts from immortals.
Now it is almost a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He can continue to gather the immortal's wool and strengthen his own strength. In this way, even when facing Wang Xianzhi, he will not be weak at all.
"My martial arts masters in Beimang are already weaker than Liyang, and there is also Beiliang, a serious enemy in the middle. Now the two parties are uniting, which is indeed a hidden danger. Fortunately, Liyang is now in a mess. He
It is not yet known whether Zhao Kai can solve the civil strife. Even if he can solve it, it will probably be a few years later.
If we want to win, we must pay a huge price. It is best for us to completely defeat Beiliang before Zhao Kai completely controls the world and has no time to visit the north.
In this way, even if we lose half of Beimang and face Li Yang who is riddled with holes, we still have a great chance of winning."
Listening to Taiping Ling's analysis, Empress Beimang also felt relieved. Although there was an additional variable like Zhao Kai, she was not out of control.
At this time Wang Sui also said:
"Now we have to look at Cao Changqing's methods. After twenty years of planning, Zhao Kai will definitely not sit idly by and ignore the sudden change. Gu Jiantang may also be able to fight for it.
In this world, we have to rely on large armies to fight!"
At the same time that various forces began to plan, Zhao Kai also moved into the brand new Prince's Mansion. Compared with Prince Yu's Mansion, the size of the Prince's Mansion was much larger. There were also many more maids and eunuchs.
After moving, I started learning to handle government affairs and forming a new team.
Relying on the advantage of foresight, Zhao Kai directly transferred Chen Wang and Sun Yin, two of the six future ministers of Liyang Zhongxing, to the East Palace, and together with Xuanyuan Jingcheng and Zhang Bianguan, they formed the future civil service team.
Although Chen Wang is Beiliang's chess piece, it does not prevent him from being a capable minister. Zhao Kai originally wanted to transfer Song Keli here, but unfortunately that guy was transferred to another place by Yuan Benxi for training.
After entering the East Palace, Zhao Kai's life gradually became busy. After all, the world is too big and there are too many things to do. Fortunately, Zhao Kai still has a group of capable people around him. It is easy to leave many things to them.
At this time, Zhao Kai finally saw the role of the clone. With the clone, he can still have time to practice while studying. After all, he still has a lot of Taoist classics to read. Even if he is in the temple, Zhao Kai still thinks
, One's own strength is the most fundamental guarantee, so we absolutely cannot slack off in terms of enhancing our strength.
As time passed slowly, Zhao Kai was also quickly understanding the operating system of the Liyang court and began to take over the remaining major forces in Tai'an City.
On the other side, Xu Fengnian, who had previously traveled in Beimang, also embarked on his return journey after receiving countless help. The Dragon Elephant Army led by Xu Longxiang and the Snow Dragon Cavalry led by Xu Weixiong also began to kill everyone in Beimang.
At the same time, under the plan of the land god Xie Guanying, Chen Zhibao of Beiliang also chose to leave Beiliang and seek refuge in Liyang.
