Dynasty Call: Low-key Struggle for Hegemony

Looking at Li Yuan's leaving figure, Li Yao's eyes showed excitement, yes, he will do this tomorrow!

Damn these old despicable people!

Lu Xun's eyes were stunned, still thinking about Li Yuan's words just now.

What a good person... He treats others in his own way!

"Your Majesty, did the King of Chu just agree to declare him the governor of Huanzhou?" Seeing Li Yuan's wisdom, Lu Xun suddenly remembered the previous discussion about the King of Chu.

"Well, fifth brother agreed and was very happy." Li Yao sat back on the stone bench.

"Very happy? Impossible!" Lu Xun denied directly and looked at Lin Shufan.

Lin Shufan thought for a while and then said: "Looking at his expression, King Chu is indeed very happy, and he doesn't look like he is lying."

"Look, I'm just saying, Lao Wu is smart, but he doesn't have a long-term vision and only cares about the immediate profit."

Li Yao took a sip of hot tea, shook his head and said with a slightly proud expression. He was already imagining how to slap the envoys in the face tomorrow.

Lin Shufan and Lu Xun looked at each other and saw each other's solemnity. It was impossible for King Chu not to understand the situation.

But why did he agree to declare the governorship of Huanzhou?

There must be a big conspiracy!

But seeing Li Yao's joyful look, the two could only put down this idea. As human beings, they already knew when to say something and when not to say anything.

People's emotional changes can affect the effect of a sentence. If you don't pay attention to the timing, it can easily backfire.

"Your Majesty, I am back."

A feminine voice sounded, and at some point, Liu Jin had arrived outside the flower pavilion.

Seeing Liu Jin's return, Li Yao's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "Liu Jin, has that fool An Zhe been fooled?"

"Your Majesty, An Zhe has learned about the sinister intentions of the Rihui Dynasty. After returning, the two dynasties with evil intentions soon started a dispute." Liu Jin, who lowered his head, raised a slight smile on his lips and said in a confident tone.

"Okay!" Li Yao praised,

"The black-robed messenger won't come back again, will he?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. When Ah Qingjian killed Pu Chenxi and Okamoto Rishan today, he fled Kyoto. I'm afraid he won't dare to come back again." Liu Jin recalled the leaving figure of the black-robed man and smiled coldly in his heart.

"The Nikki Dynasty envoys Nobuhiko Inoue and Okamoto Hizan are dead. It is impossible for the men in black robes to find anyone from the Nikki mission. Even if they want to cooperate with the Nikki Dynasty, they will only go to the Nikki Emperor." Lin Shufan hesitated. He smoothed his beard and said calmly.

After Park Chenxi and An Zhe left yesterday, the man in black robe stayed alone with Okamoto Rishan for a long time. Although he didn't know what they talked about specifically, today Okamoto Rishan suddenly asked Park Chenxi to challenge Ah Qing. As an old fox, Lin Shufan How could we not understand that the Rihui Dynasty wanted to deal with the Nanming Dynasty!

And the man in black robe not only did not stop it, but also supported it!

This is intriguing!

It doesn’t matter who’s home field this is, how can it live up to its status as the protagonist if it doesn’t do something?

Lu Xun smiled slightly and glanced at Liu Jin specifically: "Facing the prepared Nanming Dynasty, even if the dynasty of the black-robed man really supports the Rihui Dynasty, the Nanming Dynasty will not be easily defeated. After all, they dare not Send so many people.

When the Nanming Dynasty realizes that the men in black robes deceived them, they will only be resentful of that dynasty. According to their temperament, they will definitely publicize this everywhere, and the reputation of that dynasty around our border will be ruined! "

With a bad reputation, it will be difficult to influence the surrounding dynasties.

"You two adults are wise!" Liu Jin bowed his head and congratulated. These two dynasties on the border are in chaos. Will the days of chaos in other dynasties be far away?

Their plans for these dynasties are more than that. The seeds have been planted, and it depends on the follow-up. Whether to add fuel to the fire or add water to the fire is in their own hands.

"Prime Minister Lin, what do you think of me secretly helping An Zhe win the throne?" Li Yao crossed his chin with his fingers and said plausibly: "I finally understand how fun it is to have an enemy who is a kind of fool!

I still want to praise him and help him! "

The three of them looked at each other with different emotions, but none of them said respectfully: "Your Majesty is wise!"

…………………………………………

The carriage walked slowly on the lively street, and words of praise for Ah Qing on the street reached Li Yuan's ears from time to time.

When Ah Qing in the carriage heard these words of praise, his face was calm and he looked very indifferent.

Glancing at Li Yuan who was deep in thought, she saw that he was not paying attention to her. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she put her hands on the two paws of the big panda and shook them!

It seemed that the claws were getting wider, and finally came into Li Yuan's sight, and Li Yuan looked over inadvertently.

Ah Qing's arm retracted like lightning, and the giant panda's claws stopped dangling.

The big panda raised his head in confusion and looked at Ah Qing with a very anthropomorphic expression.

Master, why don't you shake your head?

Snapped!

Look at what you're doing, you're disturbing His Highness!

Seeing Ah Qing's expression, the big panda seemed to understand Ah Qing's meaning and immediately showed an aggrieved expression. Master, it wasn't me, it was you who pulled my paw and shook it!

I didn’t, you’re talking nonsense, be careful I’ll beat you up!

A Qingyu clenched her hands tightly and looked at the big panda with shameful eyes. Didn’t you hear what’s being said outside? Your master, I will kill the two venerables with one sword. If I go down with one sword, I can kill all nine of your clans!

The big panda showed a scared expression, and quickly covered his cute black eyes with his two chubby paws.

Master, I was wrong, I don’t dare anymore!

Li Yuan watched in shock as Ah Qing interacted with the giant panda. How could this man and the animal communicate silently? What was even more shocking was how could he understand it?

"Your Highness, you are back."

An excited voice sounded. The carriage had returned to Prince Chu's Mansion. Little Ye Zi had been waiting outside for a long time.

"Little Ye Zi, didn't you say you don't have to wait outside for me?" Li Yuan opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.

"Your Highness, King Heng is here to find you. He is in the palace now." Xiao Zizi looked around, leaned close to Li Yuan and whispered.

Li Yuan paused, his eyes flashed, and he resumed walking normally in an instant.

"Where is Commander Fan?"

"Commander Fan was invited out by someone else today. It seems his name is Fan He."

"I see. Let him come to see me when he comes back."

"yes."

In just a few words, Li Yuan had already entered the lobby.

Li Heng, who was dressed in a white robe and looked majestic, stood with his hands behind his back, looking up and down at the decorations of the palace. When he heard Li Yuan's footsteps, he turned around and hurried over to greet him. He showed an excited smile with satisfaction and stretched out his arms:

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. I just came to visit you today. You won't be angry with my brother, right?"

"Haha, sixth brother, I haven't seen you for a while. You have grown taller and your temperament has become calmer."

Li Yuan held Li Heng's arm with one hand and pulled Li Heng towards his seat very cordially.

"Little Ye Zi, go and bring out the best tea from the palace."

Li Heng sat down, tilted his body slightly, and leaned back on the chair properly. He looked at Li Yuan with an unchanging smile: "Brother Emperor, in today's battle, Miss Ah Qing under your command was so shocking. I have long heard that Ah Qing once The girl could kill the Lord with one sword, but rumors were just rumors, and before that, most people in Kyoto were still skeptical.

But today, two dynasty lords were killed with one sword, who didn’t know who didn’t know who didn’t!

Ah Qing’s reputation as a genius will surely spread far and wide! "

"Haha, I can't help it. Brother Huang, I'm so lucky that I just happened to recruit Miss Ah Qing." Li Yuan was not modest about Ah Qing's strength and laughed.

Li Heng's eyes lit up and he said with interest: "It's really extraordinary that the emperor brother went to the fiefdom. The emperor brother also heard about the emperor brother's deeds and conquered so many civil servants and generals along the way. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!"

"Where is it? Brother Huang, you know that I have always been very lucky." Li Yuan said very proudly.

Li Heng's smile did not change, and his tone was full of envy: "That's right, otherwise how could the emperor recruit someone like Ah Qing? Everyone said that Chu Junyan was the first genius of the Yu Dynasty. Now it seems that Ah Qing It’s the girl!

After today's battle, I don't know how many people will envy the imperial brother! "

Li Yuan's smile never stopped, and he waved his hand slightly: "Hey, everything is luck!"

"Yes, I don't know how the emperor found Ah Qing, the proud daughter of heaven. The emperor is a little jealous." Li Heng took the tea handed over by Xiao Zi and asked casually.

"It's a long story." Li Yuan took the tea with a hint of memory in his eyes.

"Oh, then I'm all ears." Li Heng's eyes were full of interest, looking very curious.

"It was a night of wind and rain, lightning and thunder." Li Yuan took a sip of fragrant tea, with pride in his eyes.

After hearing Li Yuan's first words, Li Heng's smile did not change, but he leaned back and listened quietly to Li Yuan's nonsense.

"That night, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep anyway. Looking at the pouring rain, I suddenly thought, what if someone suddenly collapsed at the door of the Gu Prince's Mansion without a place to hide from the rain?"

Li Yuan didn't seem to notice Li Heng's movements, and his face was full of expressions recalling that night.

"Royal brother, you should know that the entire Lingyang Mansion is Gu's fiefdom, and Gu's palace is very big!"

"That's that." Li Heng's smile diminished little by little when he saw that Li Yuan's words were getting more and more outrageous.

"It was this night that Gu had to go to the gate of the palace to have a look.

really!

When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw a weak woman lying at the gate of the palace! "Li Yuan seemed to have light in his eyes and was extremely happy.

"This girl, if my guess is correct, brother, she should be Miss Ah Qing. Could it be that she is seriously injured?" Li Heng didn't know why when he saw Li Yuan's expression, and he was not happy to say something.

"Yes, Sixth Brother is really smart!" Li Yuan patted Li Heng's shoulder, "Sixth Brother, you also know that Gu Yi has always been kind. Seeing this girl seriously injured and lying at the gate of the palace, there is no reason not to save her, because Gu Yi saved her. green."

Miss Ah Qing was grateful for my king’s treatment, and she was very moved and loyal to me!

I didn’t expect Miss Ah Qing to be so talented and powerful!

This really makes me feel gratified! "

Li Yuan said extremely proudly.

Li Heng slowly lowered his head and drank tea quietly. Troubled times really temper people, and the imperial brother has really grown a lot.

"Congratulations to the emperor brother. Today's competition will take place. It won't take long for the emperor brother's prestige to rise to another level."

"Oh, there is no other way. It's a helpless thing if the capable people under my command are too strong. Brother Emperor, I can only passively accept the pressure they bring." Li Yuan sighed.

Hearing this, even Li Heng, who had always cultivated his mind and nature, couldn't help but feel his chest rise and fall.

How could the Fifth Emperor Brother, who he had always been kind and kind to, become like this!

Return to the once kind and peaceful imperial brother!

Li Heng vaguely remembered how easy-going and loving Li Yuan was to his younger brothers and sisters before he left the palace. Although he didn't have much silver, he brought many gifts for them every time he left the palace.

But the previous scenes were shattered bit by bit in Li Heng's mind.

If Li Yuan knew what Li Heng was thinking now, he would also look heartbroken.

There is nothing I can do. I have worked so hard to cheat Li Yao... Well, Li Yao sponsored all his money to buy gifts for his younger brothers and sisters, just so that he can live a better life in the future and let the royal family ancestors see it. Having a positive image of respecting and loving brothers can make your life easier in the future.

well!

There were so many tears.

When you are in the palace, you have no choice but to do anything!

And at that time, I didn't know that there was a roulette wheel in my mind. What could I do? I could only manage everything I could manage carefully, just to survive well.

Li Heng took a deep breath and looked at Li Yuan. His eyes became firm. He stopped playing riddles with Li Yuan and stood up and said directly:

"Brother Emperor, you should have learned about my current situation from Li Yao after you have been back in Kyoto for so long. I don't want to be just an ordinary King Heng. I also want to be like all the brothers!"

"Sixth brother, why don't you wait quietly in Kyoto to take care of your younger brothers and sisters? Why do you have to fall into the whirlpool?" Li Yuan stood up slowly, his expression becoming serious. "If you stay quietly in Kyoto, fourth brother won't do anything to you."

"Haha!" Li Heng sneered, "Brother, do you believe it? Look at you, Li Yao summoned you to return to Kyoto, and you rushed back without stopping.

But what about Li Yao? What did he do? Today, Miss Qing just killed two venerables with her sword. Li Yao immediately became wary of you. Is what he did worthy of your loyalty? The emperor's brother came back just now. Li Yao has asked you to return to Lingzhou and declare you the governor of Huanzhou! "

Li Yuan's face gradually sank, and surprise appeared in his eyes: "Sixth brother, how did you know?"

"Don't worry about how I know. Since I want to do it, I must have the strength and ability to overthrow Li Yao." Li Heng's eyes showed a hint of pride, but he kept talking. "Brother, you should know what's going on with you now. Lingzhou has not yet been completely controlled. Li Yao suddenly declared you the governor of Huanzhou. It's like roasting you on the fire. You could have lived in peace and quiet and watched King Ming. Battle with Fengzhou Alliance and Huanzhou Alliance.

Once the news comes out that you are the governor of Huanzhou, what will the Huanzhou Alliance think? Will he still fight to the death with King Ming? "

Li Heng's voice became louder and louder, and his tone became more and more angry: "With our family gone, they will definitely take care of you first, and Prince Ming will probably just sit back and do nothing!

What will you do then?

Can you solve the Huanzhou Alliance?

At that time, you have only two choices. One is to join the Huanzhou Alliance and both sides will suffer losses. The other is to seek help from Li Yao. In this way, Li Yao can send troops!

Either way, it is in line with Li Yao's wishes. "

The more Li Yuan listened, the darker his face became, and he sat down depressedly.

Seeing this, Li Heng looked a little unbearable and lowered his tone, "Brother, don't be deceived by Li Yao. Although you always followed Li Yao when you were in the palace, it's different now. Li Yao can't see it." Your loyalty, you are one of the famous four kings of the Yu Dynasty, he has always regarded you as an enemy and a tool to fight for hegemony in the world."

"Brother Imperial, you have to be alert!"

Li Yuan looked up at Li Heng, but said helplessly: "Sixth brother, I know everything you said, but what can I do? Now Li Yao is still the co-owner of the Yu Dynasty, and he has announced my identity as the governor of Huanzhou. , can I still refuse? Even if I refuse, will King Ming and the Huanzhou Alliance believe it?"
