Chapter 39 The Emperor's Heart Gives The King of Chu a Son
Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng suddenly felt a toothache. If King Chu knew the truth, would he do something to him?
We can’t let King Chu know the truth of the matter!
He secretly told himself in his heart that he must not let the King of Chu know the truth. Otherwise, trouble would inevitably arise. The top priority now was to stabilize the King of Chu.
So, he asked: "Wulang, why are you unhappy?"
Li Zhiyun didn't hide anything and said directly: "I still feel bad that I can't avenge my second brother with my own hands. Although I know that letting Jie Li go is a helpless move, the anger and hatred in my heart will never go away."
Li Jiancheng comforted him and said: "Wu Lang, don't be impatient. This time the King of Qin died due to carelessness, and the Tang army also suffered heavy losses. After a period of training, my brother will definitely support you in raising troops to attack the Turks and avenge the King of Qin!"
"Yes, I have remembered it."
Although the news of the retreat of the Turks is worthy of joy, no one dares to celebrate it too much. After all, the bones of King Qin are still cold.
As for how the prince and King Qi can be happy in private, no one knows.
Inside the room.
Li Zhiyun twisted his neck and asked, "How is Fang Xuanling?"
Li Zhen replied: "In our hands, it is intact."
"Very good, let's find an opportunity to move him somewhere else so that he won't be exposed for the time being."
"yes."
Immediately afterwards, Li Zhiyun asked Xue Yuanjing, "Yuan Jing, have you found out about the whereabouts of Changsun Wuji and others in the Turks? Are they dead or alive?"
Xue Yuanjing said: "Jie Li said that Changsun Wuji and others were exiled to the Beihai area. He said that Changsun Wuji was very courageous and wanted to imitate Su Wu."
ah?
Li Zhiyun was speechless for a moment, "He must be crazy. The North Sea is full of ice and snow. If he doesn't starve to death, he will freeze to death."
Xue Yuanjing smiled helplessly.
Li Zhiyun asked: "Can you think of a way to rescue Changsun Wuji and others?"
"Not now." Du Ruhui stood up and said: "Your Highness, the matter with King Qin is not over yet. If Your Highness wants to rescue Changsun Wuji and others at this time, the prince will definitely stop him. What's more, Jieli has withdrawn his troops, and Changsun Wuji
They also went to Beihai, and His Highness will not be able to save them in a short time."
Hearing this, Li Zhiyun sighed slightly.
"Okay, I understand."
As the situation opened up and his capabilities increased, Li Zhiyun already had the capacity to accommodate others. He knew the talents of Changsun Wuji, Yu Zhining and others, so he was naturally unwilling to let them go.
It's a pity that God does not follow people's wishes.
We can only take one step at a time.
"By the way, has there been any news over the past two days with King Qi?"
Xue Shou cupped his hands and said, "King Qi has already begun to ask Deyin how to get rid of the prince."
Li Zhiyun sneered, "My fourth brother is really crazy."
Now that the King of Qin is dead, the ambition of the King of Qi has grown unprecedentedly. In the past, there was a King of Qin who was weighing on his head, but now that there is no King of Qin, the King of Qi has nothing to worry about.
Whether it was the prince or the king of Chu, he didn't take it seriously.
"No matter what, we must pay close attention to King Qi's movements." Du Ruhui said.
Li Zhiyun nodded, "Okay, as soon as there is news over there, you will inform me immediately."
"As commanded."
According to the original plan, the use of the Crown Prince and the King of Qi to get rid of the King of Qin has been initially completed, and now there are two steps to be taken. However, the most critical step has been taken, and the remaining two steps are relatively simple.
At the same time, the king of Qi camped.
Li Yuanji really wanted to be reserved, but he couldn't help it. Every time he thought that the troublesome second brother was dead, he couldn't help but want to laugh out loud.
He couldn't hold back the smile on his face. This scene fell into Xue Deyin's eyes and made him shudder.
He was so happy to indirectly kill his own brother. Is this the royal family's seizure of the rightful son? As recorded in the history books, it really does not deceive me. It is indeed ruthless and bloody.
Li Yuanji looked at Xue Deyin, "Sir, King Qin is dead, when will we take the second step?"
"It's all up to Your Highness."
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Xue Deyin said: "The King of Qin is dead, and your Highness's only enemy is the Prince. If you get rid of the Prince, Your Highness will be able to control the situation. It's up to Your Highness when to take action."
Li Yuanji said without hesitation: "Of course the sooner the better, I can't wait any longer."
Xue Deyin nodded and said: "Currently, His Highness must obtain the support of the King of Chu as soon as possible. In this way, the Tang Dynasty military and His Highness can cover the sky with one hand, so that they can send troops to remonstrate, remove the prince, and force the saint to abdicate."
"It is not easy to obtain the support of the King of Chu. Wulang has always obeyed his father's orders, and it is generally difficult to win over him." Li Yuanji asked: "Is there anything you can do, sir?"
"It didn't happen before, but it does now." Xue Deyin said confidently: "This time Liu Wenjing colluded with the Turks, and the prince is to blame. Your Highness can definitely find an opportunity to tell the King of Chu."
Hearing this, Li Yuanji's eyes lit up, and then he hesitated and said: "But sir, I am also involved in this matter. If I tell King Chu about the matter, will he tell his father about it? Will I get burned?"
Woolen cloth?"
It still has some brains. Xue Deyin said: "So what your Highness wants to say is ambiguous. You cannot directly explain what happened. As long as it makes the King of Chu doubt, it will be considered a success. How to explain specifically, I will teach Your Highness."
"Okay, I understand." Li Yuanji nodded and then asked: "But this alone is not enough to win over the King of Chu."
"Of course." Xue Deyin said: "In addition, when he returns to court one day, His Highness will try his best to ask the saint to take credit for King Chu. According to his subordinates' speculation, this time King Qin was killed in battle and the military power was vacant. There is a high probability that the saint will let him
His Highness and the King of Chu fill the vacancy. As long as the prince is not allowed to touch the military power, His Highness can conduct military remonstrances.
Taking a step back, even if the King of Chu does not agree in the end, his subordinates can still persuade the King of Chu to neutralize. As long as His Highness's military remonstrance is successful, the prince will be eliminated, the saint will be forced to abdicate, and His Highness will ascend the throne. When the time comes, His Highness's righteous name will be in hand.
The King of Chu must not surrender."
Having said this, Li Yuanji was quite happy. He did not worry about how Xue Deyin could neutralize the King of Chu. He just wanted to be the emperor now.
"Okay, okay, okay!"
After a pause, he said: "Can't we find a way to get my father to make me the crown prince? Military admonishment is a bit dangerous."
Xue Deyin laughed dumbly, "Your Highness, this time King Qin died in battle, the saint must have doubts in his heart. In order to stabilize the situation of the court, the saint will definitely maintain the balance of the court. When King Qin is dead, if the prince is deposed, it will make
The Tang Dynasty was shaken.
In addition, this time the Turks went south, our court suffered heavy losses, and your Majesty will not agree. And your Highness, don’t forget, those courtiers either support the prince or the King of Qin. Although the King of Qin is dead, Your Highness wants to regain the King of Qin in a short time
It is unrealistic to be a minister. His Highness hopes to ascend the throne as soon as possible, so he can only take dangerous measures."
Li Yuanji thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it.
"Yes, the Guanlong people, Shandong people and the people in the south all look down on me. If I want to regain them with gentle means, I'm afraid I can't. I can only use the sword to force them to be loyal to me."
Xue Deyin nodded happily, a boy can be taught.
"Your Highness, in fact, the danger of military remonstrance is not great. As long as the military power is in the hands of Your Highness, and if you find a suitable opportunity, Your Highness declares that the prince is rebelling, kills the prince directly, and then forces the saint to issue the edict of succession, then His Highness will be able to legitimately ascend the throne.
By then, no one can stop His Highness."
Hearing this, Li Yuanji's eyes flashed with light.
That's right, as long as you find a suitable opportunity and get rid of the prince in one fell swoop, you will force your father to write an imperial edict to pass the throne.
At that time, his accession to the throne was justified and no one could stop him.
No one can!
"Okay, I am waiting for that day to come!" Li Yuanji raised a smile on his lips.
In his eyes, he seemed to have seen a bright future.
