Prime Minister Jian shook his head, interrupted Chen Shangshu's words, and said, "Ten thousand people can't beat King Yangtao, what about one hundred thousand?" What about millions? No matter how high King Yangtao's martial arts are, it is also flesh and blood, and he still has to eat, without soldiers, it is difficult to achieve great things with the strength of King Yangtao alone. ”

Zhao Shangshu said: "What Prime Minister Jian said is reasonable, but has Prime Minister Jian ever thought about this, now King Yangtao has created momentum to say that he is the prince, according to what the old man just said, the people who don't know why must believe that King Yangtao is the prince, unless the emperor says that King Yangtao is not the prince." Can the emperor say that? Even if the emperor said that King Yangtao was not the crown prince, what was the emperor's intention in making an outsider who was not a prince a prince? Could it be that the emperor wanted to use King Yangtao to flaunt and set a good example for women to participate in politics, and finally found out that King Yangtao was a man, and in order to continue the model project, he pardoned King Yangtao for the crime of bullying the monarch, and let King Yangtao continue to deceive the people of Dahua? ”

Prime Minister Jian was speechless, he said: "The two adults have a point, but in the final analysis, no matter how bad King Qin is, it is also the blood of the Xu family." Will the emperor willingly pass the throne to an outsider, King Yangtao? ”

Chen Shangshu said: "Now that Princess Luoyang's gold leaf is in the hands of King Yangtao, if the emperor does not recognize him as the crown prince, he will say that Princess Luoyang has promised to marry him, who can say clearly?" Or, he simply supported a roadside caller called Huazi to marry Princess Luoyang, what could King Qin do? It's not good, King Yangtao will also announce to the outside world that King Qin and Princess Luoyang are in fornication...... It's really unpleasant, King Yangtao handed over Princess Luoyang's gold leaf Geng post to the Jingyang royal family? Will Princess Luoyang marry to Jingyang Kingdom? In the end, Dahua will be in chaos. Leading troops to fight, the prestige is the highest, whether it is in Dahua, or on the grassland, win more with less, have great feats, and have absolute prestige is the king of Yangtao. Back then, when Guangling rebelled, Nalan Maoqiong ascended to the top and shouted, and more than 100,000 people responded. The wife and concubine of the governor of Qionghai District have such appeal, let alone King Yangtao? ”

Prime Minister Jian hesitated for a long time and said: "Since the two adults support King Yangtao, the old man is very close to King Yangtao like the two adults, plus the three of us who are self-righteous took Princess Luoyang's Geng post to King Yangtao, and if we toss these many things, the emperor will definitely not be able to spare us." Then support King Yangtao. The old man's children are still in Yangtao County, so I will send someone to inform me first, whether I can save my life depends on the creation of my Jian family. ”

Zhao Shangshu knew in his heart that they were sending people to Yangtao County now, and it must have been after Xu Zhao was notified.

Since they want to stand on Xu Zhilan's side, Zhao and Chen will go back to the house immediately, waiting for other ministers to ask the truth and stutter, who will let the three of them have the best relationship with Xu Zhilan?

The people of Jinling were very happy, Prime Minister Jian and the others were very panicked, suffering from gains and losses, and at this moment in the Luoyang Palace, Princess Luoyang was anxiously waiting for Xu Zhiyuan to come over to discuss countermeasures.

Su Rui felt that this matter was very hot, and seeing Xu Zhiyuan walking around the hall in the Luoyang Palace, he couldn't think of any good way to deal with it for a while.

"Su Aiqing, what now?"

Su Rui said honestly: "Let's do a lot of calculations, but we didn't count Xu Zhilan is a man!" If he now announced the layout of Yangtao City back then, intending to destroy the remnants of the Hualan Kingdom and destroy the Jingyang Kingdom in one fell swoop, then the King of Qin would have no place in the imperial court! At the same time, the previous suspicion of the Empress of the Lan Orchid has also become a big joke. ”

Xu Zhiyuan stared at Su Rui very unhappily and said, "This king knows all this, Su Qing doesn't need to repeat it." ”

Su Rui sighed and said, "What Weichen can be sure of is that Xu Zhilan is not the bloodline of the Xu family. But now Xu Zhilan's prestige in the court is too high, and according to his family history, it is difficult for the people of the world to believe that he is not the prince. Now, all we can do is wait for the emperor to return to Jinling, and see how much the emperor has the sincerity to let Princess Luoyang inherit the unification. In other words, after the emperor married King Qin and Princess Luoyang, did the emperor's favor to Princess Luoyang decrease to a lower level than Princess Ziyang. ”

"What does Su Qing mean that the emperor may let Princess Ziyang ascend the throne?" Onomoto obviously asked nonsense.

Su Rui nodded helplessly, avoided this topic, and said: "The emperor needs to deal with it first, it must be Xu Zhilan, the fake prince, and then ......" After a pause, he continued: "But from now on, Xu Zhilan will definitely be more careful, and try not to seek merit, but to be innocent." Don't say that he doesn't make mistakes, but if he makes mistakes, Dahua is just a prince, and all civil and military officials will intercede for him. ”

Xu Zhiyuan said coldly: "Just kill him!" ”

Su Rui shook his head and said, "Xu Zhilan can take the head of the enemy general among ten thousand people, how can he say that he can kill him?" This matter is not easy to do! ”

Xiao Jinyun said: "Prime Minister Su Cheng's words are wrong, Xu Zhilan is lustful, and he is affectionate, as long as we catch Chu Yanqing or Xiang'er, or arrest all the people in the Lan Mansion......"

"Forget about the people of the Lan Mansion, although these women have followed Xu Zhilan for several years, they are not Xu Zhilan's harem concubines, and it makes little sense to catch them. It is feasible to grab Xiang'er or Chu Yanqing. It's just that, in case of failure, the consequences are serious. Xu Zhiyuan said.

"King Qin robbed Xu Zhilan's Princess Luoyang, forced Xu Zhilan to expose his identity as a man, and participated in the battle for the throne on the bright side, this is already a deep hatred like the sea, whether to rob Chu Yanqing or Xiang'er, Xu Zhilan will deal with King Qin." Xiao Jinyun hit the nail on the head.

Su Rui thought for a while and made a suggestion: "King Qin, now that Xu Zhilan is powerful, let's go back to Qingyun County first and avoid its edge for the time being."

Xu Zhiyuan felt that if he left like this, when Xu Zhilan came back, he said that Princess Luoyang and he were already husband and wife, let him marry Princess Luoyang, and then drive the two to Qingyun County or Qu'an County to live, and he would be completely away from the court. He planned to wait in Jinling for a while to see what Xu Zhao was going to do.

Then, Su Rui suggested that while waiting in Jinling, he would send someone to the Western Regions to ask King Gui for help to see if he could find Luo Yuzhu.

Xu Zhiyuan said angrily: "The Western Regions Pass has been closed for half a year by order of Xu Zhilan, and whoever enters and exits will die, unless they can fly out!" ”

Xiao Jinyun had an idea and said, "King Qin, we can let the wind out, Princess Chongyang was killed by Xu Zhilan, let Mo Wentian find trouble with Xu Zhilan."

Xu Zhiyuan glared at Xiao Jinyun and said, "If Mo Wentian believes that Xu Zhilan is the crown prince, whether Princess Chongyang is dead or alive will not affect Xu Zhilan as the emperor!" Mo Wentian would still believe that Xu Zhilan ran to kill Princess Chongyang and forced him to go to the king's side? ”

Su Rui shook his head and said, "Under normal circumstances, of course, it is as King Qin thinks. If Mo Wentian was honestly the owner of Tiger Roaring Heights, and had never helped Princess Chongyang to ascend to the throne, and dreamed that the Mo family would control the world, then he knew that Xu Zhilan had killed Princess Chongyang, and he might have endured it for the position of the owner of Tiger Roaring Heights!
