An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

Chapter 117: Prince

Views:

Wei Jiao was so angry that he wanted to say something else, but Wei Lian added, "I have something to say to the king alone. If you are busy waiting, it's better to step back."

Of course, the idle people included Madam Li, Wu Ji, Wei Jiao and all the palace servants present.

The King of Chu felt a pain in his head, and he didn't want to listen to this renegade son.

Mrs. Li immediately said: "Seventh Young Master, you are overstepping your responsibilities. Your Majesty didn't give any orders—" Why did you tell us to retire

Wei Lian opened his lips: "I have news from Qin."

The King of Chu immediately changed his words: "You all step back!"

Mrs. Li: "..."

Mrs. Li gave Wei Lian a fierce look, and reluctantly got up from the King of Chu. Wei Jiao's eyes were hostile, and he left with his mother.

Wu Ji's status was the lowest, and she didn't have the right to speak here, so she left quickly after hearing the words. Just passing by Wei Lian, he secretly glanced at Wei Lian's perfect profile face, thinking that this son Lian is really good looking at 360 degrees without dead ends.

When the people in the hall dispersed, the King of Chu raised his air again: "Do you really have news about Qin?"

Wei Lian's tone was respectful: "How dare you deceive the king."

The King of Chu snorted coldly: "Lonely see you have nothing to dare."

"I was offended by my son in the past, and the king forgives the sin." Wei Lian bowed and bowed again, and made a full gesture, "I am from Chu after all, and my heart is towards the state of Chu. These days I have endured humiliation in the state of Qin and deceived the king of Qin. , relax your vigilance against Erchen. Erchen has peeped at Qin's military layout, wrote it down and drew it, and left Qin overnight, just to do my best for our Chu country."

The King of Chu was refreshed: "Do you have a military layout?"

The military layout is an important military secret. Knowing it is equivalent to seizing the opportunity. What will the Qin army be afraid of

Wei Lian said, "Yes."

The King of Chu's eyes rolled slightly, but he still remained a little suspicious: "I heard that the King of Qin treated you well, why do you want to betray him? Could it be that you are united with him to be lonely?"

Wei Lian lowered his eyes, and his smile was rather bleak: "He treats his sons well... but he is just a pet like a bird or a hyena. How could a man with a man's eyebrows live under the hood of a man? And proud? What I want in my life is to kill him, a shame!"

The last eight characters gritted their teeth, like a monstrous hatred.

The King of Chu was dubious: "The King of Qin will let you see something as important as the military layout?"

Wei Lian lowered his head and was a little hard to say: "King Qin... he is greedy for his son's body. Often regardless of the occasion..." He looked humiliated, "The son was also asking him out in the bed when he was drunk, and stealing it after he fell asleep. saw."

Wei Lian's acting skills were too realistic, and the King of Chu immediately believed it by eight points. Heroes are sad at Beauty Pass, and it seems that the King of Qin is no different. He knows how beautiful this son is.

From the bottom of his heart, the King of Chu despised those men who were pampered. He felt that this status was as low as mud, and he could immediately understand Wei Lian's hatred.

When he thought that this son was delivered to King Qin's couch by himself, but now he is willing to come back to serve the country of Chu, King Chu suddenly sighed: "My son has suffered."

Wei Lian still has the soldiers he needs in his hands. Driven by interests, the King of Chu does not mind giving away a little hypocritical fatherly love.

"Be loyal to the country, and my son will not regret it." Wei Lian said in a low voice, "My father sent my son to Qin, but my son had a grudge, so he was so disrespectful to his father. But later, my son wanted to understand, What's wrong with the father? The fault is clearly the cruel and inhumane King of Qin. How can my son hate the wrong person. Now that I have made up for it, does the father still blame me?"

The young man still looked cold and stubborn in front of everyone, but in front of him, he softened his tone and lowered his posture. The King of Chu immediately felt a sense of satisfaction, and said, "No wonder, no wonder."

He paused, and his expression became a little more urgent: "Is the soldier layout here with you? Can I let Gu take a look?"

Wei Lian said yes, and presented the first half of the army layout.

The King of Chu looked at it carefully, but the drawing was very detailed. It didn't seem like a fake, but...

"Why is there only half of it?" The King of Chu asked eagerly.

"My son still has a selfish desire, and he wants the father and king to agree." Wei Lian looked at him directly, "If it does, the son will naturally take out the other half of the army layout."

"You say." The King of Chu did not hesitate, "Gu agrees to everything."

Wei Lian said word by word, "My son wants the crown prince."

It was for this. When the King of Chu heard this, he relaxed. Wei Lian had a plan, but he was afraid that he would not want anything, but the King of Chu could not believe his loyalty.

Faithfulness is the most unreliable thing in the world, and profit is the strongest bond.

It's just another prince, if Wei Lian dares to deceive him, he will abolish it.

Compared with Prince Jiao, who has no achievements, Wei Lian is obviously more valuable now.

"Okay!" The King of Chu didn't think much, he waved his hand, "I'm just going to make a plan!"

Wei Lian hooked his lips: "Thank you, father and king."

The King of Chu quickly wrote the imperial decree, and when he was about to hand it to Wei Lian, he took it back, still having doubts in his eyes: "Are you really lying to Gu?"

"My sons are all in a good city, and they have no power or power." Wei Lian said calmly, "If the picture is false, the father and the king will execute the sons directly. The sons don't have to risk their lives for the King of Qin."

As for how to confirm the authenticity of the soldier layout, it depends on whether the next battle will be won.

That's long enough.

Enough for Wei Lian to take Liangcheng.

The King of Chu thought about it too, so he gave him the imperial edict: "Guhui will order someone to announce to the world and rectify your identity."

After leaving the Hua Juan Palace, Wei Lian gradually became expressionless, and slandering Ji Yue was almost his daily routine. He wondered if Ji Yue would be so angry that he would push him to the couch again.

… the answer is yes.

Acting in this scene is just a tactic to slow down the army. Wei Lian doesn't care about the crown prince's position. What he likes is the throne.

Wei Lian has never been powerless or powerless, but he has been away from Chu for too long, and it takes time to prepare for a rebellion.

Chu State is different from Liang State. Liang Guo's belief is the national witch, the national witch is dead, the Qin army is overwhelmed, and the Liang army is on the verge of collapse. After he killed the king, the Liang people would completely lose their fighting spirit.

However, the Chu state was not at the end of the road at this time, and all the people were united in resisting the Qin state. If he kills his father and brother unprepared, his name is not right, he will become a sinner through the ages, and he will also cause a fierce counterattack. The Royal Forest Army is still in the palace, and he may not be able to walk out of the palace alone.

He needs a title.

What Wei Lian is fighting for today is not the crown prince, he is fighting for time.

The layout of the soldiers was drawn by Wei Lian on the road, and it was enough to resemble the real one. According to the picture, the Chu army will be in a desperate situation. The entire army will not be wiped out, but it will be trapped in the mountains, making it difficult to counterattack.

He left room for the Chu army to surrender, believing that Ji Yue would not kill them all.

War always kills people. If there is no good strategy without bloodshed, then the casualties will be minimized.

As for whether or not the King of Chu will use that soldier to set up the map... That's for sure.

After all, based on Ji Yue's combat ability and the current state of Chu's dwindling talents, if the prophet cannot be predicted, the Chu state is by no means an opponent of the Qin state.

The King of Chu will definitely bet.

"I want to see, what kind of fame can he tell with his father?" In the hall, Wei Jiao couldn't swallow this breath. "An abandoned son, why is he so arrogant?"

"Jiao'er is the crown prince, can he still go above your head?" Mrs. Li said, "No amount of rhetoric will shake your status."

As soon as the words fell, the eunuch came with the edict to abolish the prince, and emphasized that the current prince is Wei Lian.

Wei Jiao: "… "

Mrs. Li rolled her eyes and fell to the ground, fainting.

"Prince?!" When Concubine Yan heard the news, she only felt heartbroken.

Her daughter, Yan'er, has not been able to become a prince for so many years. Did Wei Lian pour some ecstasy soup for His Majesty to become a prince

Wei Yan was also stunned for a while, and his jealousy was palpable: "How is he worthy! What does King Father think?"

When Concubine Yan saw this unworthy son, she felt ten thousand regrets in her heart.

Knowing that Wei Lian is so capable, she just didn't say what she said!

Wei Lian doesn't care what they think.

When he left the palace, he performed light work, got rid of the people behind him who were sent to follow, and secretly appeared in the study of the Taiwei's mansion.

Qiao Hongfei had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Wei Lian, his eyes moved, and he clasped his fists and saluted: "Seventh son... No, His Royal Highness."

He knew that the son was very capable.

But I really didn't expect it to be so big... What a big event to change the crown prince, how did the prince persuade His Majesty in just half a day

However, His Majesty's actions are inherently unreliable. If you think about it, it will be an outburst, and treat state affairs as child's play. The rank and the son are 108,000 miles apart, and it's normal to be fooled around in circles...

"Husband, the concubine is cooking soup, you..." A soft female voice came from outside the study. A woman with a beautiful face pushed in the door and saw the young man in the room, her eyes were startled, and the soup bowl in her hand was just like that. He fell to the ground.

"Xiao Qi!" Wei Xiang looked at him in disbelief, "really Xiao Qi?"

Wei Lian's expression softened slightly, and he called softly, "Elder Sister."

Wei Xiang immediately picked up the skirt and trotted over, looking at Wei Lian up and down: "I heard that you are back, but I still can't believe it. How are you? Last time I heard Hongfei say that everything is fine in Qin, but Qin Chu has not been at peace recently, have you not been wronged in Qin?"

"Sister, I'm fine." Wei Lian reassured her, "I'm back now?"

Wei Xiang looked at him slightly absent-minded, and murmured: "Just come back, just come back..."

Siblings reunite, naturally there are many things to say. It's just that time cannot be delayed. When Qiao Hongfei saw that it was almost time, he said softly, "Madam, Your Highness still has business."

Wei Xiang slowed down and nodded: "I won't disturb you, just discuss it."

After Wei Xiang left, Wei Lianfang asked, "Can General Zhao be in the mansion?"

Qiao Hongfei looked solemn: "The general has already received the news and is waiting in the secret room. Please come with me, Your Highness."

The study has its own secret passage leading to the secret room.

Qiao Hongfei thought with admiration, the son is really predictable.

As early as half a year ago, Wei Lian asked Qiao Hongfei to send a letter to General Zhao in the name of a family letter.

The General himself said:

Qin State's state banquet has changed, and the Seven Kingdoms are afraid that there will be changes. There will be wars within three months, and Chu is afraid that they will not be able to stay out of it.

The king of Chu killed the generals unjustly, and the absurdity of his actions has chilled the hearts of loyal ministers of the Manchu dynasty. The court and opposition of the state of Chu are all small, and no one talks about serving the country with loyalty, so why is it based on troubled times

Yu Gongzi's body also has the heart of galloping on the battlefield, vertical and horizontal. The rise and fall of a country and a country is inexorable.

My king can't bear the responsibility, so I can be the new king.

If one day I go back to Liangcheng and want to kill the ministers and stupefy the king, I will ask the generals to help me. Taiwei's mansion.

If Yu hadn't returned, the general would have never seen this letter. Sorry for disappointing the general.
