Today, Luoyang City, the capital, was jubilant because of the great victory in the northern border. From high-ranking officials to peddlers and pawns, they were celebrating this victory in their own way. How many people took to the streets, cheering and the crackling sound of firecrackers was more lively than during New Year's Eve. Even the calmest people would drink some sips of wine for this...

But there is only one place, when the people are jubilant, not only does not enjoy the people, but it seems particularly gloomy and depressing - the East Palace where the prince is located.

Since returning from the palace last night, the prince Sun Cong has become extremely gloomy, making the servants and servants dare not approach them at will, nor dare to speak or make loud noises, for fear that the prince will vent his anger and bring unintentional disaster to him.

As fellow Eastern Palace members, most of them could understand why the prince had such a reaction. The great victory in the northern border was a great good thing for the entire Dayue government and opposition, but for the prince, it was full of threats and endless troubles.

Because the greatest contributor to this victory was King Ying Sun Bi, and King Ying was the person who posed the greatest threat to the position of crown prince in recent years. Now that he has made unparalleled contributions, how can he make the crown prince happy?

Because of this, these servants were worried about Mr. Mo more and more missed Mr. Mo at the beginning. In the past, whenever the prince was angry about something, Mr. Mo could always make suggestions to calm him down. However, this time, Mr. Mo was no longer there, which really made all servants suffer.

As for the two Liu brothers who were respected by everyone in the past, they have been ignored by everyone this morning. They really don’t think that Liu Suiyun and Liu Suifeng can resolve the knot in the prince’s heart at this time.

But at this moment, the Liu brothers really knocked on the door of the prince's study: "Your Highness, we know that you are in a difficult situation now, and we also want to do our best to repay you for your care and reuse over the years. Please ask Your Highness to allow my brother to come in and speak."

After Liu Suiyun explained his brother's purpose, the room finally responded: "Come in." The hoarse and low voice made the two feel more stressed. When they pushed the door and entered, they saw the prince's appearance at this moment, the two brothers were even more shocked and exclaimed: "Your Highness, you..."

At this time, the prince looked really embarrassed and haggard. His messy clothes were stained with wine stains. His face was full of depressedness, and his eyes were covered with blood because he had not slept all night. There was no such thing as a noble person as a crown prince. Faced with the surprise performance of the two, the prince just smiled, grabbed the wine pot next to the table, and drank two sips of wine: "I wanted to indulge myself for a long time, but this time I finally had a chance... Prince, hey, Prince... I'm afraid soon, there will be a change of master here, and I, the prince, have to change to someone else!"

"Your Highness..." The two of them were even more panicked and immediately knelt down, "Your Highness, don't be discouraged by the matter and give up on yourself... We, we are not yet at the end of our lives, we still have a way!"

"How?" the prince laughed at himself again, "I have tried too many methods, but what's the result? Did Sun Bi hurt a little bit? Even Li Ling, you and I can't deal with it, but instead, I, the prince, lost all my face!

"Now, they have made great achievements in the northern border and are still thinking of going further and expeditioning the grasslands! Although there are some oppositions, I can see that whether it is the father or the majority of the people in the court, they are actually happy to see pacify the grasslands.

"Father, he always wanted to be the Emperor Wu and Tang of the Great Yue court. In terms of civil governance, he believed that he was no less than the wise monarch of the previous dynasty, and only martial arts were lacking! In the past, he had only regretted that there were no famous generals like Wei Huo and Li Jing, which made it difficult for him to achieve great things... And this time, the famous general was his son!

"Hahaha...you guys say, how could he let go of such an opportunity that has been famous in history? I can guarantee that the decree of the Northern Expedition will be issued in a few days. Now Sun Bi has been named Prince, so what will happen when he really returns to Luoyang in triumphant? How can his father reward him at that time besides changing me as a prince.

"Hahahaha... So I haven't been in the Eastern Palace for a long time. You should leave quickly, so as not to get tired of you... Let's go, let's go..."

At the end of the day, the voice became lighter, and the prince sat there dejectedly, tears slid down in his eyes.

During his words, the Liu brothers knelt there and listened in surprise. They wanted to comfort each other several times, but failed. In the end, the two of them were even more guilty and helpless. It was not until the prince finished speaking that they hesitated for a moment before Liu Suifeng said: "Your Highness, you have always been kind to our brothers. Even if everyone deviates from you, our brothers will not leave!"

"Yes, Your Highness, you used to regard us as friends, but even if you had Mo Li later, you didn't really treat us too slowly. Although our brothers are not as resourceful as him, their loyalty to you must be above him." Liu Suiyun also expressed his opinion, "Even if we die, we are willing to follow you!"

The statements of the two finally made the prince's mood a little better, and his somewhat crazy expression also restrained his a little, "You...you, why bother with this?"

"Your Highness, you are far from desperate now. Even if Sun Bi does make great contributions in the northern border this time, so what? At least at this time, he is still just a minister, you are the king! Moreover, there is never a conclusion on the battlefield, especially in the battle of the past dynasty, Wei Huo and others, who rely on some luck to win. What kind of virtue is Sun Bi, and he dares to compare with famous generals throughout the ages? I think that this time he still wants to fight the north and go deep into the north of the Mo, that is the way to defeat. Maybe in a few months, he will die on the grassland.

"Even if he did not die at the hands of the Guirong people, at least 50% of them may return without failure. By then, if the soldiers and generals are lost, they will escape back with great defeat. What qualifications do he have to compete with His Highness for the position of crown prince?"

Liu Suifeng's words really made the prince's spirit slightly cheered: "You... do you really think so? So this time he took the initiative to propose the Northern Expedition may not be a bad thing for me?"

"It is precisely, Your Highness, Sun Bi is eager for quick success and instant benefits, which gives us a chance. Not to mention that logistics support will become particularly difficult after entering Mobei. It may not be possible to do everything possible to do the power of the court. Even those Guirong people, in the face of such a disaster of extermination, would they dare to have any reservations? They will definitely do their best to fight. It is a lucky thing that Sun Bi has a 30% chance of winning."

"No...yes, if the Gui Rong in Mobei was so easy to destroy, Taizu and Taizong would have been destroyed long ago. Where did he get his turn to this time? As long as he was defeated, it would be difficult to fight with me anymore!" The prince muttered something and had completely accepted this statement.

But after a while of happiness, he was still uneasy: "But what if it really happened?" Sun Bi really wants to make unparalleled achievements, can his position as the crown prince be preserved?

The two brothers looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes. At that moment, Liu Suiyun stepped forward a little and kowtowed, "Your Highness, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it."

The prince had recovered at this time. Seeing this, he quickly got up and helped them up hard: "If you have anything to say, just say it, why do you have to do this? Even if you say it wrong, I won't blame you."

Liu Suiyun opened her mouth and was still a little guilty. Seeing this, Liu Suifeng stole the conversation: "Your Highness, even if such a thing really happens, there is still a way to deal with it. But this plan is really too bold and cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary."

"What strategy?"

"As long as your Highness, you have become my Emperor of Great Yue before he returns to the court, even if Sun Bi makes great contributions, it will be useless." Although Liu Suifeng was bold, he still did not dare to say that, and just mentioned it in a vague manner.

The prince was stunned at first, but soon he understood. This made his expression go from shock to anger, but soon, it changed to calm: "You are telling me to my father..."

"Your Majesty is old and has been ill recently. Maybe it's common sense when he went there for some reasons." Liu Suiyun had adjusted his mindset at this time and plucked up his courage to make the words clear.

The prince's body was shocked suddenly because of his words, and then he said, "You can say it easily. The palace is strictly guarded. Even the prince, I, don't go in as long as you want. What's more, Wei Tang has always been guarding by his father, and he is one of the few masters today..." This means that he was really moved, and only he and a few people knew that the old eunuch who was old and could blow down with a gust of wind was actually a master of the world.

Seeing that he said this, the Liu brothers knew that he was really moved, so they immediately replied: "No matter how powerful Wei Tang is, he is already an old man. Ordinary people are indeed not his opponent, but isn't there Qu Wangyang around His Highness? He is also one of the few masters in the world. With his restraint, it is enough to deal with Wei Tang."

The prince thought for a moment and nodded. He was absolutely confident in Qu Wangyang, whether it was his martial arts or his loyalty to himself.

"As for how to hide it from everyone entering the palace, it is actually not difficult. Your Highness, do you still remember Lin Tianxiang?"

"Imperial Guard General Lin Tianxiang?" The prince suddenly revealed his identity.

"It's him. Since Xiao Chengzhi was valued by His Majesty, Lin Tianxiang, who was guarding the palace, was seized from power. He was dissatisfied with him for a long time. In the past two years, we have borrowed the status of the prince and communicated with him for many things and rewarded him with countless property. Now he is ours.

"Since Xiao Chengzhi left the capital a few years ago, the power of the palace ban has fallen back to Lin Tianxiang's hands. As long as he makes arrangements, His Highness can easily bring people into the palace, and then..."

The prince's eyes kept flashing, and he struggled even more. After a while, he slowly said: "I wouldn't do such a thing unless there is no other choice..." Although he said that, just from his expression, he was probably already moved.
