Commander Pang said: "What the prince said makes sense. It's just that the emperor doesn't like it. It's better for the prince not to do it anymore. Losing the emperor's favor will only be detrimental to you. This King of Chu is highly valued by the emperor, and he He is the commander-in-chief of the army. His subordinates suggest that you should not embarrass the King of Chu in the future. As long as you obey his orders, if something goes wrong in the future, it will not be your fault. It will all be his fault in command. In front of the emperor, he There is no way we can get away with it. If we can destroy Xi Chu in one fell swoop, then this great contribution will go to you, don’t you think?”
Tuoba Zheng felt as if the fog had been lifted from his eyes, and he suddenly became enlightened.
"Yes, yes, fortunately you woke me up in time, otherwise I would have made a big mistake! Okay, during this period, I will listen to that brat for the time being. After Xi Chu is eliminated, I will slowly I have to settle this account with him! However, this prince always suspected that this boy was not well-intentioned. He clearly captured Nanguan City, but he did not move and refused to send troops to capture Shuanglu. He clearly wanted to give Xi Chu a break. Machine! I must report this matter to my father. I don’t think Chu Shaoyang can explain it even if he has a hundred mouths!”
"Your Majesty, you should think twice before you act. In my opinion, the King of Chu's standing still does not seem to be giving the opponent a chance to breathe, but like he is planning something. Look, in the past five days, the King of Chu has been on board every day. Looking at the city wall in that direction, that is exactly where Shuanglu City is located. He practices the formation every day. Maybe he wants to wait for the opponent's reinforcements to arrive and then catch them all?" Military Advisor Pang rolled his eyes.
He is Tuoba Zheng's military advisor. He is very resourceful and has been with Tuoba Zheng for ten years. Tuoba Zheng is very brave, but he is reckless and impulsive. Fortunately, over the years, he has always provided suggestions and advice, which has allowed Tuoba Zheng to succeed. He was invincible in the battle and won Tuoba Zheng's trust.
What he said had great weight in Tuoba Zheng's heart.
Tuoba Zheng slapped his thigh suddenly: "Fortunately, military advisor, you reminded me, yes, yes, that Chu Shaoyang defected from Western Chu. He was supposed to succeed to the throne, but now the emperor has taken his throne, and he himself He is full of hatred. He should not be a spy sent by Xichu. No wonder my father trusts him so much and entrusts him with important tasks. I am too suspicious. Very good. Since he is not a spy, then I will Just bear with him for now.”
Military Advisor Pang leaned close to him and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, the emperor made him the King of Chu and asked him to lead troops to attack Western Chu. However, he appointed you as the deputy general. Why do you think so?"
Tuoba Zheng's eyes widened, and he became angry when he mentioned this, and said bitterly: "My father must have been deceived by his sweet words!"
"No, no, Prince, the emperor is smart and wise, how can he be easily deceived? The emperor does not trust the King of Chu, nor does he trust you, Prince. Compared with the close relationship, you are the emperor's biological son, and he is just In the heart of the emperor, the outsider who has surrendered naturally regards you as one of his own. By sending you as his deputy, you are allowed to secretly monitor the King of Chu. If he really has other intentions, you can take action without hesitation! However, until something big happens, you'd better stand still, because we still need to rely on the King of Chu to open the door to Western Chu for us, and he is the most important key!"
