"Excuse me, Mr. Zuo, you came to visit suddenly, did you get some news?"

Seeing Zuo Xiaoyou coming, Li Si and others sat up straight.

Although Jin Yiwei was nominally assigned by Zhao Che to Li Si and the others to manage, in fact it was only to assist them in their work.

The command of Jin Yiwei has always been in Zhao Che's hands, and they will only be loyal to Zhao Che.

Therefore, Li Si and the others were very polite to Zuo Xiaoyou, a small banner official, and did not treat him as a subordinate!
Zuo Xiaoyou was also one of the leaders of the Jinyiwei sent by Zhao Che, and he was in charge of monitoring the princes of Loulan Kingdom.

Hearing Li Si's question, Zuo Xiaoyou didn't hold back, and said immediately.

"My lords, today is the day of King Loulan's burial. Just now, a coup took place in the palace of King Loulan. The second prince of Loulan led the army and slaughtered the palace of the eldest prince. The eldest prince was also taken away!"

"The humble job has already sent someone to inquire about the news from Xie Gu, who is in charge of monitoring the Loulan Palace, and it is estimated that there will be news soon!"

……

Hearing Zuo Xiaoyou's words, Li Si's face suddenly changed, Lou Lan's actions were faster than he imagined!
Li Si and the others certainly knew something about the princes of Loulan.

Although the successor of King Loulan is the eldest prince in name, in fact, the ability of the eldest prince ranks among the many sons of King Loulan, not even the top three!

However, in Li Si's opinion, the eldest prince is indeed the most suitable candidate to take over the throne of King Loulan.

It's not because the eldest prince has any special qualities. Apart from being the eldest son of King Loulan, it's also because his mother is favored that he can be treated differently by King Loulan.

King Loulan also spent a lot of effort to pave the way for the eldest prince, so that the eldest prince has an approval rate of more than [-]% prestige in Loulan country.

Although the Eldest Prince is mediocre, he is definitely not a waste. After all, King Loulan spent so much effort teaching him that even a pig should learn to read and write.

The most important thing is that the eldest prince's character is more easy-going and will not be too sharp!
In comparison, the second prince was obviously a very proud person.

It is true that the second prince's military ability is many times higher than that of the first prince, but his acting style is too impulsive and fiery!

Therefore, if the second prince marches and fights, he must be a good hand, but if he is allowed to govern the country, it is obvious that he still lacks training in internal affairs.

In addition to the second prince, the remaining two princes who needed attention were the fifth and seventh princes of King Loulan.

In Li Si's view, the abilities of the fifth prince and the second prince are comparable, and they each have their own supporters.

The second prince has mastered the military power of the Loulan Kingdom, so it is definitely not weak in terms of hard power.

However, what the fifth prince is in charge of is Loulan's financial power.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the Fifth Prince is definitely the God of Wealth of the Loulan Kingdom. The opening of the Silk Road in the Western Regions was completed by the handover between the Fifth Prince and Wu Zhiluo.

As for the fifth prince, his attitude towards Da Qin was also one of the more friendly ones among the many princes.

Because the fifth prince is in charge of the financial power, his vision is naturally more vicious. In terms of analyzing the gains and losses of benefits, the fifth prince is definitely unique.

The fifth prince knows that Daqin's strength is definitely far above Loulan, and the benefits that can be gained from joining forces with Daqin are definitely more than turning against Daqin and choosing to betray!

However, the fifth prince is relatively low-key. Even the coup in Loulan this time did not affect the fifth prince. He is still in charge of handing over a batch of goods from Daqin.

However, Li Si believed that the fifth prince was definitely not as calm as he appeared on the surface, and he must be moving behind his back.

Otherwise, the batch of weapons traded between Loulan and Daqin was inexplicably less than one-third of the quantity, so would it have disappeared?
Apart from the second and fifth princes, Li Si and the others are most optimistic about the seventh prince!

Compared with the eldest prince, the second prince, and the fifth prince and three elder brothers, the seventh prince is far inferior to his own elder brothers in all aspects.

Moreover, the seventh prince is also the youngest, and he rarely even participates in Loulan's government affairs.

Then why do Li Si and others value this seventh prince so much?This is also thanks to the pervasive Jin Yiwei.

If it wasn't for Jin Yiwei's investigation, no one would know that this seemingly shy and innocent seventh prince is actually a decisive executioner behind his back.

Moreover, the Seventh Prince clearly has nothing, but he can make Thrall, who is known as the wise man of the Western Regions, pledge his allegiance to him. In fact, this alone is enough to make people pay attention.

However, the intersection between Thrall and the seventh prince is hidden in the dark. On weekdays, even if the two of them face each other, they are just like two strangers.

If it wasn't for the coincidence that Jin Yiwei saw the scene of Sal's night visit to the Seventh Prince, they probably didn't know that the Seventh Prince was hiding so deeply.

Saar is the next high priest of the Loulan Kingdom, and he is also the confidant of the current Loulan King. The power he possesses cannot be underestimated.

Besides Thrall, the Seventh Prince even had ideas about those concubines of King Loulan.

Anyway, according to Jin Yiwei's investigation, there are more than ten concubines who have been confirmed to have an affair with the seventh prince.

King Loulan didn't expect until his death that his head had already been dyed green grassland by the seventh son whom he never looked directly at.

This seventh prince not only hides deeply, but also acts very cautiously. Even Jin Yiwei finds it very difficult to find out his secret.

Up to now, Zuo Xiaoyou only knew that the Seventh Prince was controlling a lot of Loulan ministers behind his back, but who they were and how many there were, even Zuo Xiaoyou couldn't find out!

This shows how deeply the Seventh Prince hides in Loulan.

Of course, for Jin Yiwei, there are no secrets in this world, it's just that they don't have enough time and manpower to investigate the details of the Seventh Prince.

If so, Jin Yiwei can still learn so many secrets of the Seventh Prince, it can be seen that Jin Yiwei's investigation ability far exceeds the imagination of the Seventh Prince.

Speaking of which, in this coup, the second prince was the first to take the initiative. With the momentum of thunder, he directly arrested the first prince, and then threatened Loulan officials to try to usurp the throne.

But the fifth prince and the seventh prince stood still, and they didn't know what would happen to them!
"Jin Yiwei Xie Gu, I have met all my lords!"

While Li Si and the others were guessing, a figure walked in from outside the door.

"Thank you, sir, for your kind words, please sit down!"
