"What? Prince Mo has already arrived at the Qiwu border?" Prince Mo was shocked.
Unexpectedly, before I returned to Wudu, the people who negotiated succession had already arrived.
what does that mean? Although the eldest prince can't compare with Wu Zhe, Dugu Mo and others, he also understands that his position is very embarrassing, and even more seriously, it is very precarious!
Emperor Xuanwu didn't trust him very much, otherwise, how could he connive at the commander-in-chief of the frontier army to recall him? The recall order of the Frontier Army Commander-in-Chief may also have been ordered by Emperor Xuanwu!
The eldest prince broke out in a cold sweat.
"You go down." The eldest prince waved his hand with a dull expression, telling the spies to retreat.
"Prince, why are you so scared?" Shi Liu asked from the side.
"Could it be that I will really be replaced by that fake prince Dugu Mo?" The eldest prince didn't answer, but just stated his own judgment in a daze.
"Why?!" Pomegranate suddenly jumped up and said angrily, "Your Majesty [无^话^][].[][].[], you are the eldest prince. The emperor also sent you to negotiate first, how can you Want him to replace you?"
Shiliu's brain has not yet realized that the words of the eldest prince are not only about negotiations, but also include the possibility of the prince's succession to the throne. The eldest prince's mind is not much stronger than that of Pomegranate, in fact, the two of them can be said to be evenly matched. It's just that the eldest prince grew up in the royal family for many years, and his experience is many times richer than that of Pomegranate.
"But what does it mean that Dugu Mo is here?" The eldest prince's expression was gloomy. If it wasn't for his determination, he might have been crying.
"Oh—the eldest prince must think that Emperor Xuanwu sent him to replace you, and he doesn't trust you anymore." Pomegranate rolled her eyes, thinking of the possibility that the eldest prince had realized before, but still quickly thought of other crooked points: " But you really think so?"
"Is there any other possibility?" The eldest prince's eyes radiated a new light of hope.
"Of course!" Pomegranate looked confident: "It was only a few days after Emperor Xuanwu sent us, and Dugu Mo was sent here. Do you really think we can't do it? Isn't the time too short? A lot of words"
It never occurred to Shiliu that Emperor Xuanwu judged the prince's defeat based on the standards of an emperor, especially from the perspective of human wisdom, not just based on one matter.
"That's right, that's right! The time is too short!" The eldest prince said excitedly, "Royal father should give me half a month, otherwise how can we call negotiation?" People restrain each other. If you find that Dugu Mo is inappropriate, you can report it directly to the emperor. This is more accurate than any impeachment document from any censor, right? A lot of words."
"Wonderful! Father actually planned this way? It turned out that we two brothers were to monitor each other's behavior!" The eldest prince felt that Pomegranate's analysis made sense for some reason.
What is a broken boat with rotten nails? What do you mean "wowotou with pickles"
The two always seemed to find a reason to be self-consoling when they were together.
The eldest prince really liked listening to what Pomegranate said. I also trust Pomegranate's [brain-tank level] analysis.
Pomegranate is also full of the feeling of a think tank in front of the eldest prince, and can even show the level of a female think tank with a super performance of foolish wisdom.
They complement each other! If the eldest prince becomes the emperor, then as a woman, Shiliu will be a concubine, and as a man, he will be a sycophant. These two are definitely a couple.
When people are in a panic, they like to hear good news. As the saying goes, it sounds good when you go along, but it's hard to swallow when you go against it. Pomegranate's analysis has many flaws, but it took advantage of the eldest prince's psychology.
"Pomegranate, with you here. I just feel at ease!" The eldest prince was completely unaware that Sister Pomegranate's words were taking advantage of her psychological advantage.
When he was in Wudu, the relationship between Pomegranate and the eldest prince had grown by leaps and bounds, so that several princes and concubines were jealous, but they couldn't compare with him. The eldest prince's self-proclaimed in front of Pomegranate has changed from being lonely to me, and he has lost his official air and only remains as a husband and wife.
The Eldest Prince even planned to give Shiliu a formal title as a concubine immediately after obtaining the title in the Xuanwu Emperor's enthronement hall. This shows how much the eldest prince values her.
This is the benefit of the courtier category. Because no matter how bad the world's major events are, the courtier can always find something he likes to hear in front of the emperor. And the loyal ministers shouted every day that the emperor would bring disaster to the people and destroy the country like that. I don't want to see anyone else.
"Let's keep an eye on Dugu Mo's false prince. As long as they make any mistakes, we will immediately report them to Emperor Xuanwu!" Shiliu smiled and suggested.
"Okay!" the eldest prince said excitedly, gearing up his fists: "Everything is according to what my female think tank Shiliu said. Look at what that Dugu Mo is doing, let's just find faults!"
The eldest prince's trust in Pomegranate has reached a level of insensibility, and even the plot of Dugu Mo reusing Zhou Zhiruo has been selectively ignored. He never thought about the fact that Zhou Zhiruo was the real think tank.
Maybe he knew it vaguely in his heart, but he was deceiving himself not to be clear. Because it was a fake think tank that was saved by several million taels of silver, he didn't want to confirm it was true even if he killed him.
But one wrong step. It's a pity that the good prince status created by the eldest prince under the protection of the master Maitreya for ten years is collapsing bit by bit under the hands of Sister Shiliu.
The semi-vegetative Master Maitreya, who was far away on the sick bed in Wudu with crooked mouth and eyes and unconsciousness, was afraid that even if he recovered, he would be suffocated to death in one breath.
It was also the eldest prince's bad luck, if Wu Zhe chose him instead of Dugu Mo. Maybe everything will be different. Based on his obedience to Pomegranate, perhaps it would be easier for Wu Zhe to infiltrate Wu Guo's high-level on his side, and it would be easier to control the overall situation in the later stage.
It can only be said that the eldest prince had a bad life and was not known by Wu Zhe the first time, so when she was not sure, she chose to start with Dugu Mo, who was more psychologically aware.
When Shiliu and the eldest prince made plans to monitor Dugumo and prepare to make a small report, Wu Zhe was asking Dugumo to take an unprecedented move.
"Dominion..." Dugu Mo walked back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back.
"Yes, the hall of art, the core of skills, the gathering point of talents..." Wu Zhe had already taught Dugu Mo the concept of dominion.
It's just that when I talk about it, I put more emphasis on the talent gathering power of this place.
"This kind of place...is it possible?" Elder Bao couldn't believe it, but he also understood the huge potential contained in it: "Could Miss Zhou think that we have enough strength to obtain a pure land at the junction of the three countries fifty miles away?" To cultivate your own power?"
