Chapter 32: The Wind Rises (2)
"After this, I think it is necessary for your highness to join forces with all the princes and continue to report to the Emperor, attack the true prince to form a party for personal gain and plot against the evil actions." At this point, Chen Teng finally showed a killer move. He had been thinking about the means of counterattacking the true prince for a long time. At present, when the Buddhist sect was unwilling to intervene too deeply in the royal war, only by rationally utilizing the influence of the court officials can he effectively attack the true prince. "Your Majesty the Emperor is a person with a strong desire for control. What the most untolerant is that the princes form a party for personal gain and try to get involved in his country. The execution of the former Zuo Prime Minister fifteen years ago is the best example."
"Yes, yes, right now, Zhendi's power is everywhere. Instead of fighting head-on with him, it is better to provoke the relationship between his father and him and let the father take care of him personally." Tuoba Yuanji rubbed his hands repeatedly, and Chen Teng really gave him a great idea, allowing him to find the direction of his action at once.
Speaking of which, Chen Teng could think of such a way to kill people with a knife, thanks to the death of the third prince. Once the third prince died, the eldest prince became the opponent of thousands of people. Unreasonable attacks came one after another, and fell into a huge passive state. The tenth prince did not speak a word in the process, or even did not take the initiative to attack, and forced His Highness to a mess. It was really clever.
It can be seen that the application of forces outside the court is second. Being able to use the forces in the court reasonably is the key to gaining an advantage. For this reason, it is necessary to provoke His Majesty the Emperor's distrust, causing him to lose confidence in the tenth prince, and begin to suspect that the tenth prince was intending to get involved in the throne.
Tuoba Yuanji applauded: "Yes, yes, yes, counter-espionage plan, the tenth brothers are powerful, we avoid the real and attack the virtual, let the father take care of him, and see what he should do."
"Your Highness, do these three things first. Let's think about what we will do in the future. If we deal with it, we will only be the only way to deal with it."
"Aiqing Chen, when I got you, I was like a fish entering the water, and finally gaining a broad living environment."
"Your Highness is absurd."
"No, no, I will reward you heavily. Come and follow my will, and give Chen Aiqing ten thousand taels of gold and three lovers. Go and do it quickly."
"Your Highness, nothing is a more precious reward than your successful success in winning the treasure."
"Hahaha, my dear, I know that you are not interested in money or women, and are eager for supreme power above ten thousand people. Don't worry, the king of Japan ascended the throne of the great treasure and will definitely get your wish."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Hey, my dear, don't talk nonsense, be careful of the ears of the wall."
"Your Majesty, you have a deep blessing. It is a gift from God to the people. It is a matter of time before you become a treasure. I am just congratulating you in advance."
"That's not OK. My father hates others to transgress their identities the most. Hurry up and take back what he said just now."
"Be careful to follow the sage." The sage is the emperor, and he is around. Chen Teng is still calling Tuoba Yuanji the emperor. Although the latter is reluctant, he is his most beloved and trusted subject after all. Nodding as acquiescence: "According to the will of this king, he will give Chen a thousand taels of gold and the three of his favorite concubines, and go and do it immediately."
"Your Highness, the solution is all come up with everyone, and the credit is naturally shared by everyone. I am willing to enjoy the gold and silver rewarded by Your Highness with all the colleagues here." Chen Teng said generously, closing his hands, kneeling on the ground, and bowing down.
Tuoba Yuanji frowned slightly and said, "No need, all the gold and silver are specially rewarded by me, so there is no need to share it with others."
"I, I would like to share it with everyone." Chen Teng pulled out his voice and kowtowed again.
"Okay, let it go." Tuoba Yuanji finally agreed.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Everyone thanked each other.
"Come on, it's time to have fun, let's raise our glasses together."
"I wish His Highness the Prince to ascend to the position of Dabao as soon as possible."
"Hahaha!"
In the wine pond, the meat forest, singing and dancing bring peace to peace, the eldest prince Tuoba Yuanji loves beauty more than loves the country.
...
At the same time, in the huge courtyard of the Ten Princes Mansion, His Highness, the strong prince, sat alone on the stone bench, with a pony curled up beside him, eating the hay in the prince's hands, and rubbing his head at His Highness from time to time.
In the sad city of Chang'an, His Highness sat alone, like a lone king overlooking the world with majestic dignity, overlooking the vast world at your fingertips. The yard is large and spacious, with dense grass planted on the ground, and ten meters away are stables. The horses living in it are tall and heroic, with majestic weapons, and they are not ordinary people at first sight. Tuoba Zhen, the tenth prince who has been on the army since he was a child, never kept beautiful women in his mansion. Each yard has carefully created a different ecological environment to raise war horses, rhinos, yaks and other war cavalry suitable for marching and fighting. Even the staff members in the mansion just live under the same roof, which is no different from the war horses he is kept in captivity.
The tenth prince is strong and has a deep thought. When he is with such a master, his subordinates can only obey, and he cannot do anything at all, and he has no room for freedom to play. However, there are still a large number of capable people and strangers willingly approaching, because they have already seen that the true prince is a true dragon of a generation and the best candidate to inherit the throne.
A man standing by like this, a man who called himself Lossa and had crushed Chen Fei with overwhelming strength in the Jinling Arena, standing respectfully beside His Highness, like a child who had done something wrong, he didn't dare to show off.
His Highness the prince is in a bad mood today. He will only come to the stable to feed his horses when he is in a bad mood. The war horses enclosed in the stable are tall, burly and extremely fast. They come from the nomadic peoples in the north. They are the spoils that His Highness plundered from the border people. They live a life of being enclosed all day and cannot step out of the fence. The horse lying in the prince's arms comes from the local area and is a gift given to His Highness by a courtier. They are now three years old and never grow up. They are only half of the fierce horse. However, they can freely enter and exit various courtyards all day long and even enter His Highness's study. They are one of His Highness' favorite pets. Only when they are in a particularly bad mood will His Highness take the initiative to come here and feed it themselves, just like some people who like to find a beautiful woman to vent their heart's heart when they are in a bad mood. One truth is.
As a close minister of the true prince, Lothar has a certain understanding of His Highness the Prince who has assisted him for many years. Although His Highness has made military achievements since childhood, he is not a very good person. With deep scheming and deep eyes, it is difficult to guess his true thoughts. Although his aides live together, they will hold banquets every day and drink wine and eat meat, but His Highness never attends the banquet. His use of his aides always calls him to talk alone whenever he has something to do. At this moment, summoning himself next to the stable is not a good thing.
"How did you do what you did?" The real prince continued to play with the pony while asking in a quiet tone.
Luosa's heart was stern and nodded, "Report to Your Highness, the left prime minister Tuobazi came out. Since the third prince had an accident, he has been sick all day long. He has never been to court or went out. He even refused all visitors and lived an isolated life from the world." Seeing that Tuoba really didn't say a word and had a bad expression, Luosa continued to report: "I have checked the medicine residue that flowed out of other people's houses. It should be the medicine for wind and cold diseases. The dosage is very large, and it is estimated that the disease is not mild."
"Isn't you sick?" Tuoba Zhen sneered, and his right hand was slightly pressed. The short horse that was held in his arms was squeezing, and he was in great pain. "I won't get sick early or late, and my third brother fell ill as soon as he died? There is such a coincidence! Tuoba Zi has produced this old fox. Seeing that the situation is complicated and the boundaries of all forces are not yet clear, so he simply hides and becomes a turtle with a low-key and forbearance. No one can compare to him in terms of low-key and forbearance."
"The idea of the empress is consistent with Your Highness. Tuobazi lent his sanction for illness because he was afraid of causing trouble and being involved in the battle of the successors of the throne. He is really an old fox. He is afraid that he will not go to court until the situation is clear."
"How could the old fox who once fully supported his father's ascension to the throne willingly be a turtle? He was just using this to send a signal."
"Release a signal?" Losa was really confused.
"Yes, he is telling those around him who can't see the situation clearly. Long live and still live. The princes should stop fighting and assist His Majesty with all their strength to revitalize the empire." Tuoba Zhen said word by word, and a faint light emanated from his brother's slightly yellow pupils. Finally, he let go of his hand and stood up. The pony that was almost strangled to death rolled and crawled away, and was still screaming at a loss while running.
Losa frowned tightly, and his long hair mixed with black and white lay obediently on his shoulders in front of the Prince's Hall. The fierce beast claws on his shoulders also lost the cold light of the past. In front of Tuoba Zhen, he had to be careful, because this scheming master always had the lead and did unexpected moves.
"The left prime minister of the empire, Tuoba Zi, was sick and recuperating at home. The purpose was to tell the princes who were deliberately trying to seize the throne, His Majesty, who were still determined to seize the throne, and His Majesty should respect His Majesty?" Losa was puzzled in his heart, "Is this what his behavior meant?"
"Tuobazi is loyal to his father, and his life belongs to him. Once his father dies, he is afraid he will immediately resign from all positions in the court."
"I'm taught me." Losa lowered his head respectfully, and Yu Guang looked at the other party, looking at the prince in front of him who could never see the depth. Seeing him standing with his hands on his back, his strong shoulders were still seen even under the wide robe, his pupils were slightly yellow and his eyes were deep. He felt that his mind was really different from ordinary people, and he didn't treat people like a normal person should have. He always looked worried and thought, "What secret is hidden in your heart, Tuoba Zhen!"
But he heard the other party say in a bad tone: "The Shushan envoy Chen Fei, who was beaten away by you, has formed an alliance with my brother in Jinling and helped him successfully catch the murderer who killed the third brother. He is currently pursuing the main person behind the assassination of the third brother. What do you think about this matter? Luosa."
When the latter heard him say the first sentence, he felt that it was not a good thing. The more he listened, the colder he felt. In the end, he sweated heavily and made a treacherous debate: "Prince Lie and Your Highness, you are the biological brothers of the same father and mother. Can you send someone to send a message to Prince Lie and let him tidy up the charges and impose them on the eldest prince? The so-called crime is nothing to worry about. As long as Prince Lie is willing, it should not be difficult."
"Losa, your thoughts are so naive and terrible." Tuoba Zhen's tone became colder and colder, "I have received news long ago. In order to gain a foothold in Jinling, Lie first asked Murong Baishi, who was responsible for collecting money in the Murong clan, to make friends with Murong Baishi, who was responsible for collecting money in Jinling City. He used Murong Baishi's influence in Jinling City to appease the local gang elder brother Linghu Xuanzhou, and then seized the money tree under Linghu Xuanzhou. The most famous geisha Qianqian girl in Jinling City. Now it is confirmed that Qianqian is the murderer. Do you think he will put the charge on my elder brother who has lost his lips and teeth with the Murong family!"
Speaking of this, Lothar had fully understood the intention of the real prince to raise an army to ask for guilt. With a "thump", he knelt down on the ground, his hands were facing up, and bowed deeply: "I am not good at doing things, please punish him."
Tuoba Zhen said condescendingly: "You are indeed not good at doing things, because Prince Lie is a newcomer, and it is impossible for him to understand the complex power structure of Jinling City so well. There must be someone else who helps him out of his advice. The only person he has made serious friends in Jinling is Shen Fei, the messenger of Daozong, who cracked the murder case and found that the faceless killer group replaced the real Qianqian to assassinate. It was Shen Fei, who personally lent such a meticulous and powerful opponent who was supported by the Daozong power, pushed away from me and pushed it into my younger brother's camp. Do you know how serious the fault you have made? Do you know what crime you should be."
"Please forgive me for my loyalty."
"I'm dedicated to me? It sounds nice, I think it's for you!"
