Inside the palace, the Emperor and the Crown Prince had a rare intimate conversation.

The emperor said slowly: "I thought that the poison that Sang Yu carried was untreatable.

But who would have thought that his princess could actually cure most of the poison.

She was the princess I bestowed upon him. He really shot himself in the foot.

What kind of marriage did the Taoist priest from Mount Laoshan refer to? Now it has become like this, and I am really troubled. "

The prince frowned and said, "Father, don't worry, even if he has been cured by the princess.

Even if he still has the intention of rebellion, he cannot cause any big waves.

Father, think that he is now on the frontier, and whenever he comes back from suppressing a rebellion, he will hand in the tiger talisman as soon as possible. Without military power, his good intentions will be in vain."

The emperor disagreed, “He has fought in countless battles since he was young, and his military exploits are too numerous to mention.

His heroic name is widely spread in the army and the market, and people say that the world is protected by the King of the South. "

He looked at the prince with dissatisfaction and said, "It's because none of you brothers can go to the battlefield and show off your skills.

I have nothing to say, I have to use him every time. "

After a pause, a smile appeared on the emperor's face: "Fortunately, your sixteenth brother can now take charge of his own affairs in the military camp."

As she spoke, she tapped the table with her slender fingers.

It's rare that he feels better when he talks about a prince.

When the prince heard this, he took a deep breath. The sixteenth disciple, Sang Mo, was born to Concubine Ying when she was nearly thirty.

Logically speaking, Concubine Ying had a son in her old age, so he should be precious. However, Sang Mo liked martial arts since he was young, and he spent all day practicing with guns and sticks with a group of soldiers in the training ground.

Even if he was injured, when Concubine Ying blamed him, Sixteenth Brother would speak on behalf of the soldiers who had injured him during the fight.

Over time, the soldiers gradually came to like him and knew that he was not arrogant, so they played with him using real guns and real ammunition.

So his martial arts strength increased rapidly.

When he was a little older, he kept clamoring to go to the barracks and fight on the battlefield.

He has also fought in many battles with Zi Sangyu.

During the training, he had unknowingly grown into a general-level figure.

He can lead troops to fight and can stand on his own on the battlefield.

For the prince, he now has another sixteenth brother to worry about.

His growth made the prince feel more and more threatened day by day.

At present, it seems that Sixteen really likes this line of work. He doesn't seem to think too much about some conspiracies and tricks at this moment.

But it doesn’t mean that he won’t want to in the future. It is unknown whether Yingpin has ever transmitted it to him.

So he said quietly: "Although Zi Sangyu has less poison in his body now, it seems that we can't control him.

But during these long years, many of his former subordinates have been sent to the front lines as cannon fodder.

Most of them did not come back alive, and the rest were eliminated by us one after another. It will not be easy for him to make a comeback."

But I thought to myself, 'Besides him, my fifth brother, I also have that Sang Mo.

Father, you are only worried about Zi Sangyu. It seems that I am the one who has a long way to go.'

"Now that the situation is calm, we can rest easy for now.

If the foreign vassal takes the opportunity to invade, I am afraid he will take advantage of the situation to cause chaos."

He stroked his short beard and said, "The 200,000 elite troops left to him by the late emperor are still in his hands, and they are far away in the remote areas outside Yunnan City.

I have also been investigating whether he has privately stockpiled additional troops.

I am really worried that he will grow stronger in the next few years, and will use the opportunity of war to build up his own army. That will be the end of you and me."

After careful consideration, the prince said, "I think if he wants to store private soldiers, he must be far away from the border.

It is unlikely that there will be any private soldiers in the area of ​​several hundred miles around Chang'an City. This place is dangerous for him."

"I don't think so. The most dangerous is often the safest."

The emperor's eyes looked over the prince's head and into the distance.

After a moment, he took a sip of tea and continued, "However, my imperial guards have also sent many good generals to search the area within a radius of 200 miles several times, but nothing has been found so far."

The prince felt a little relieved. "Right? I don't think he would be so stupid as to station troops under your watch. Isn't that a road to self-destruction?"

But I thought to myself, 'I'm going to deal with that brat Sixteen.

He is innocent and poses no threat at the moment, but his mother and his grandfather are not easy to deal with.

Once they found out that Sixteen was already a powerful figure, they would definitely provide him with strong support.

Add to that his three uncles... 'It's chilling to think about it.

The emperor was looking at the map in the imperial study at this time. The vast mountains and rivers were magnificent and majestic.

Thinking back to the beginning, he had obtained it through illegal means, and now he has to keep it, which is what he has always wanted to do and is doing.

The kingdom originally belonged to Zi Sangyu, but now he has to protect it for her.

This was more or less a risk, but he really had no better way, so he could only continue to use illegal means and poison him to control him.

Now Zi Sangyu is gradually getting rid of his control.

He seemed to be getting stronger, so he decided that the rights given to him must be as little as possible.

An idea suddenly occurred to him, so he said, "I will give Sixteen to him and ask him to take care of him for me."

The prince felt a tightness in his heart, and it seemed as if he couldn't breathe.

Oh my god, this is going to fuck me.

He was a little stunned and a little panicked: "Father, have you thought about the consequences of doing this?

Sixteen is a simple child. If you hand him over to Zi Sangyu, he will bring you one of his followers."

The emperor disagreed: "He is my child, I know him well.

I want him to follow him into battle and quell the rebellion within a short period of time, so as to establish his prestige in the army.

In this way, I can gradually get rid of Zi Sangyu, and then get rid of him.

Because I feel uneasy every day he is around.

So, what you have to do is to be a good prince and do whatever I ask you to do. Don't act rashly.

Because this will be your kingdom in the future, you will only feel at ease if you let your sixteenth brother guard it for you.

I will feel at ease. No outsider can entrust him with the task of protecting the country.

I have no other choice now. None of you brothers can lead troops to fight.

Fortunately, Sixteen has liked it since childhood. Your minds are not on defending the country, but just fighting for the position of crown prince.

Haven't you ever thought about this? If you get this world, how are you going to keep it?" He looked as if he was disappointed with his friend.

The prince was speechless. If it weren't for his mother, it would be strange if he could get the position of prince.

Father only asked Sixteen to help him defend his kingdom, there's no need to panic.

His tension, which had been taut all this time, finally relaxed a little.
