"20,000 soldiers into Shu!"

The expression of the third prince was a little stiff. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This time the king of Chu betrayed him, which is equivalent to betraying the king of Shu, after all, with the unruliness of the king of Shu, he will not be loyal to the king of Chu.

As a result, the King of Shu became a loner, and he could not support the attack of King Zhao for long.

After all, after King Zhao mastered the forging technology of arquebus, he trained a group of musket teams, with muskets plus Xuanjia iron cavalry and barbarian cavalry, the situation of King Shu can be described as very difficult.

If Xiao Ming hadn't provided him with a batch of artillery to defend the city, it would be a question whether the King of Shu could survive until now, so in the eyes of the three princes, Xiao Ming attached great importance to Bashu, otherwise he would not abandon his previous suspicion and provide artillery and ammunition to the King of Shu, whom he hated.

It was with this problem in mind that when the King of Chu decided to escort him to Qingzhou, he had some luck in his heart, because for Xiao Ming he was still a little useful, but for the King of Chu, he was a complete drag.

"This is just the first batch of soldiers, in my opinion, 20,000 elites are enough to help the King of Shu block the King of Zhao from going south, of course, the premise is that the King of Shu is a vassal to me, if he doesn't do it, these 20,000 people will be the last straw that crushes him, understand?" Xiao Ming's tone was unquestionable.

The third prince was silent for a while, and he said: "Didn't the emperor let the criminal ministers enter Shu to persuade the king of Shu to return to his heart?" ”

"No, I am here for you to replace him, the king of Shu is stupid, and you are talented, it is more appropriate to hand over Bashu to you."

"To the sinners? Isn't the emperor afraid that the criminal ministers will occupy Bashu and support the army? The third prince was a little confused.

Xiao Ming laughed when he heard this, "I just let you be in charge of the government affairs of Bashu, but I have the final say in the affairs of this army, do you think that these 20,000 people entered Shu just to help resist King Zhao?" “

The third prince's heart sank, and then he understood what Xiao Ming's idea was, once the king of Shu was called a minister, Xiao Ming could justifiably use the king of Shu to resist the disadvantage of King Zhao and revoke the king of Shu's royal title.

In order to appease the King of Shu, Xiao Ming will let him replace the King of Shu, but all he can have is the name of the King of Shu, but there is no truth of the King of Shu in it.

Seeing that the three princes fell silent, Xiao Ming reminded at this time: "For me, this is just a way, even if King Zhao occupies Bashu, I will only spend some more hands and feet in the future." ”

"The Three Kings Alliance is still defeated, how can a single King Zhao be the emperor's opponent, the three princes, the emperor just can't bear the royal family to continue to kill each other, this is a chance for you to live and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, if you miss it, there is really no more." Qian Dafu and Xiao Ming sang a double reed.

The third prince's expression was complicated, obviously struggling in his heart, and he asked, "How is the emperor going to deal with the King of Shu." ”

"How about I let him be an idle prince?" Xiao Ming took a sip of tea and took a sip gently, the most important thing for him now was to stabilize Bashu and not let King Zhao's plan succeed.

As for the three princes and the king of Shu to stay for the time being, there is nothing, after all, the two have no military power, they are just fish and meat on the chopping board.

If the two of them can honestly be an idle prince, if they are not honest, they can be killed at any time.

And if his plan succeeds, he will be able to obtain Bashu, the land of abundance, avoiding an expedition and curbing the expansion of King Zhao.

"The emperor is right!"

The third prince's eyes rolled, but he was not a fool, he thought of everything Xiao Ming thought of, so he said: "If the emperor is sincere, I hope that the emperor can give the king of Shu and the guilty ministers a gold medal to avoid death!" If you are not guilty of rebellion, you must not kill it! ”

"Gold Medal for Avoiding Death!" Xiao Ming showed a confused look.

Qian Dafu knew that Xiao Ming was not very clear about the past of the Great Yu Kingdom before, so he explained: "Your Majesty, at the beginning of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, Gaozu once rewarded the three generals under his command with gold medals for avoiding death, and made a rule that those who were exempted from death could not be killed unless they were guilty of rebellion. ”

Xiao Ming nodded when he heard this, this gold medal for avoiding death has also appeared in contemporary history, but it is actually just a form of appeasement for the emperor to the meritorious ministers.

In the course of contemporary history, this gold medal for avoiding death has proved to be of little use, since the crime of treason cannot avoid death, as long as officials make a fuss about it, they can still kill it, after all, sometimes say that you are guilty, and if you are not guilty, you are guilty, and if you are innocent, you are innocent.

However, if the third prince can really change his past mistakes and loyally support him, he doesn't have to kill him.

So Xiao Ming just thought about it for a while and said: "This is easy, as long as you finish this matter for me, I will give you two a gold medal for avoiding death, so that you can enjoy a prosperous life." ”

The third prince breathed a sigh of relief, this time he was right, for him, let things continue to develop, he and his younger brother are just dead words, and now it is a great luck to be able to live in the world.

"Thank you, Emperor Longen." The three princes bowed deeply.

Xiao Ming was even satisfied in his heart, if he took Yan, Liang, Zhao, and then got Bashu, he would no longer have anyone to shake in the Great Yu Kingdom.

The two reached an agreement, Xiao Ming asked Qian Dafu to arrange a house for the three princes to live in Qingzhou City temporarily, and when the front line sent 20,000 soldiers back, he would send the three princes and these soldiers along the Yangtze River into Bashu on warships and merchant ships.

After all, the king of Huainan was attached, and the warships along the Yangtze River could be supplied, and between the feudal kingdoms of the king of Shu and the king of Huainan was only the king of Ruyang, who only owned the land of three states, and the location was equivalent to the junction of the western part of contemporary Hubei and Chongqing.

At the same time, this entry into Shu is also a deterrent to the king of Ruyang, and now only the king of Ruyang has not been in contact with him, and he does not know what the king of Ruyang is thinking.

After controlling Bashu, this King of Ruyang was sandwiched between the King of Huainan and the Bashu under his control, and he believed that the King of Ruyang would not be able to sit still at this time.

The three princes left, and at this time Qian Dafu said again: "Your Majesty, in addition to the three princes, Cui Xue'er, the daughter of the King of Huainan, has also arrived in Qingzhou, does the emperor want to see what this Cui Xue'er looks like?" In the past few days, the emperor has been working day and night, and the right is to have fun. ”

Speaking of this, Qian Dafu suddenly laughed shyly, in his opinion, it is normal for the emperor to accept concubines.

Xiao Ming's heart moved slightly when he heard this, but he thought about it for a while and dispelled this idea, after all, since Cui Xue'er had arrived, he must have entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother immediately, and at this time he would accompany the Queen Mother to see her together.

Moreover, Fei Yue'er is pregnant and about to give birth, but at this time, he is playing with the wind and snow, he still has some regrets in his heart, and he doesn't want to be caught by the ministers.

Thinking of this, he said to Qian Dafu: "This matter is over, why don't you follow me to see how this palace is built?" ”
