Chapter 643: The King of Chu is a vassal
White clouds were drifting lazily in the deep blue sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ge Yiren looked up at the sky above his head and asked, "Then according to the two of you, what should we do now?"
"As the saying goes, people can't hang themselves on a tree, and now that King Zhao is in Chang'an, we can only bow our heads temporarily, but someone in Qingzhou should also bring us a word over, lest King Qi think that we are determined to follow King Zhao." Yu Zhiyong groaned: "After all, we can have the status now by relying on the support of our respective families, so as not to drag down the family when the time comes." ”
Ni Kuang couldn't help nodding, thinking deeply.
Ge Yiren was a little abrupt, it turned out that the two of them were trying to get him into secretly contacting Fiji, after all, Fiji had always had a good relationship with him when he was in Chang'an.
Ge Yiren was a little tempted, but he had been in the officialdom for many years, and he naturally knew that trouble came from his mouth, no matter how he said it, this Chang'an was under the governance of King Zhao, and if he rashly agreed, he might incur debts, after all, no one in the officialdom of Chang'an could be trusted now.
He said lightly: "The worries of the two are a little redundant, no matter who has been sitting in the country for thousands of years, the wealthy family is still the wealthy family, and it is too late for the royal family to win over the past dynasties, how can they be angry with us when the time comes?" And the news from Wei Di, wasn't the wealthy family under the command of King Wei good before? ”
Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang were stunned when they heard this, and they wanted to say something more, but Ge Yiren still left.
Seeing this, the two immediately looked at each other, and Ni Kuang said, "What does this Ge Yiren mean?" ”
"It doesn't matter what he means, in short, he doesn't do it, we do, although his words make sense, it's just that who doesn't want to have a place in the court in the future?" Yu Zhiyong said with his hands behind his back.
Ni Kuang nodded, "Brother Yu is right, he doesn't participate, we secretly contact Qingzhou, if the army of King Qi comes over in the future, if we come to join forces inside and outside, we will also be heroes in the future, right?" ”
"That's right, there will be one less person to fight with us."
After the two of them said that, they returned to a casual appearance.
……
Lin'an.
The news of the rout of the Three Kings Coalition also reached here at breakneck speed.
Before the war, everyone in the Great Chongqing Kingdom saw that their eyes were on Yunzhou City, and now the results of the war have been decided, but some people are happy and some are worried.
"They were defeated, and they were defeated so completely, this king really looks down on King Yan and them." The king of Chu looked in the direction of Qingzhou and thought thoughtfully.
Xiao Ming's ascension this time was basically a major event that shook the world, and now the Three Kings Alliance was defeated when he ascended the throne, which must have made Xiao Ming's momentum unique for a while.
"Uncle, it's not that King Yan, King Zhao and King Liang are incompetent, but Xiao Ming's army is too powerful, and Xiao Ming has won successive battles since the Battle of Cangzhou, which is enough to explain something." The third prince said lightly.
The king of Chu fell silent, and Xiao Ming's ascension to the throne was clearly slapping King Zhao and his face, after all, only King Zhao and him were the kings of the Great Yu Kingdom.
However, although he was angry, he didn't have any way, now was not the time to tear his face with Xiao Ming, and this time the Three Kings Alliance was defeated, and he didn't dare to think anything about the south of the Yangtze River.
After thinking about it, he finally sighed, and now his only way was to continue to cooperate with the French to consolidate his military power.
And in order to avoid being attacked by Xiao Ming, he could only find a way to temporarily paralyze Xiao Ming, thinking of this, he looked at Xiao Zhen, the third prince, and said in a strange tone: "Zhen'er, uncle can't stand you, for the safety of the Li family, uncle can only rely on you." ”
The third prince's face instantly turned pale, and then he suddenly laughed like crazy, "Father is right, my brother is unreliable, and outsiders are even more unreliable, I really deserve it!" ”
There was no trace of guilt on King Chu's face, and he said: "Don't blame your uncle for being unkind, for the sake of the Chu State and the Li family, my uncle has to do this." ”
After a pause, he shouted, "Someone! The three princes pretended to pass on the holy decree, and the crime was extremely heinous, so they were immediately detained and sent to Qingzhou to wait for the emperor's fate. ”
"Yes, Your Highness!" The guards in the palace stood behind the three princes in response, and one person grabbed one of the three princes' arms.
Li Chuyuan, who was also in the main hall, asked; "Father, do we want to be a vassal to Xiao Ming?"
"What about being a minister? It's just a false name, the important thing is that after being a minister, Xiao Ming has no reason to use troops against my Chu State, so that we can keep our eyes on it, develop secretly, and wait for the opportunity. ”
Although Li Chuyuan was a little unwilling, he had to say that this was the best way at present, and now that Xiao Ming defeated the Three Kings Alliance, he was powerful for a while, and anyone had to weigh it.
When the third prince heard this, his eyes were resentful, and he said: "You wait, one day Xiao Ming will cut you with a thousand knives!" ”
"You're still worried about yourself." Li Chuyuan sneered, "I don't know what Xiao Ming will do with a prince who ascends the throne without authorization, hahaha......"
King Chu frowned, "Chu Yuan, don't be rude, Xiao Zhen is a prince no matter what, even if Xiao Ming wants to kill him, it is also a royal family matter, this time in order to show the sincerity of this king, you will personally send an envoy to Qingzhou, and you will live in Qingzhou for a while in the future." ”
"Father!" Li Chuyuan was shocked, "Why do you want to live in Qingzhou?" ”
The third prince looked gloating, and he said, "Don't you understand this? Of course, as a proton, so that Xiao Ming will feel at ease. ”
Li Chuyuan had actually thought of it, but he couldn't believe it.
The king of Chu let out a long sigh, he held Li Chuyuan's forehead and said: "Da Lang, it's not that my father is ruthless, if Xiao Ming dominates the north, he will definitely attack Chu in the south."
None of the three of Yan Wang were Xiao Ming's opponents, how could they fight against Xiao Ming with the power of Chu State alone? For today's plan, we can only call the minister, for the quality! ”
Li Chuyuan was reluctant in his heart, but what could he do now? The King of Chu has decided, can he violate it?
"Yes, Father." Li Chuyuan's eyes were red, and he was very aggrieved.
The king of Chu was also a little unbearable, after all, this was his own son, so he said: "When you come back from Qingzhou, the position of the king of Chu will be yours, no matter what your father does now, this future will be for you." ”
"Erchen knows his father's painstaking efforts, and he can make Xiao Ming feel at ease when he goes to Qingzhou, and secondly, he will send the news of Qingzhou back at any time, and this time Erchen will live up to his father's expectations." Li Chuyuan gritted his teeth.
The third prince sneered, and then cried again, recalling the glory of the past, and then looking at the current situation, he now deeply regrets that he ruined the future of the Great Chongqing Kingdom for the sake of the throne.
It's just that no matter what he thinks now, it's too late, he will be escorted to Xiao Ming, and his younger brother King Shu will definitely be defeated by King Zhao because of the loss of the support of the Chu State, after all, for the King of Chu, he needs King Zhao to deal with Xiao Ming on the surface.
