Crown Prince's Counterattack

Chapter 10

Sima Yi went to Wenhua Pavilion to report every day, and handled some political affairs by the way, and his performance was considered diligent.Being in his position does not require him to have great fame and achievements, but only two words, be careful!The saying "Be careful sailing for ten thousand years" has a profound meaning.

"Your Highness?!"

Seeing Sima Yi's frowning and thoughtful expression, the ministers around him who were helping to deal with government affairs stepped forward one after another to relieve him of his worries.

"Nothing to do, you go do your own thing!"

Sima Yi waved away the crowd, he hadn't received a letter for a long time, a vague ominous feeling lingered in his heart, he had a hunch that something was about to happen.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, something serious has happened. The servant received the news. The Holy One was furious the day before yesterday. He has ordered General Wu to lead his troops to arrest you, and he will soon surround the imperial city!"

"what?!"

"Eunuch Chen, is what you said true?!"

"What should I do now? How could such a thing happen?!"

"..."

All the people underground were flustered, and they kept pacing in the hall, gradually showing signs of fear.

how so?Sima Yi was puzzled, his expression became more and more dignified, why did the situation suddenly take a turn for the worse when he was in a good situation before the tour, and what happened in the middle, it's a pity that he can't meet Kangxi now, acting extremely passive.

"Why did the emperor make such a decree?"

All eyes were on Eunuch Chen.

"I heard that someone reported to His Majesty, slandering His Majesty for colluding with the army and intending to rebel."

Chen Gui looked indignant.

"This is absolutely slander!"

"Wolf ambition!"

"..."

Everyone was angry again, and they all condemned, but it's a pity that Sima Yi's face was still very ugly.

Sure enough, he came prepared, it seems that the informer must have taken out something, otherwise Kangxi would not have made a decree, it seems that there must be omissions in his plan.Kangxi has a great desire for power, and the rebellion must be a taboo. If this matter is not handled properly, then the ending of the abolition of the prince in history will also be his, so he is now standing on the edge of a cliff.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Someone noticed Sima Yi who had been silent from the beginning until now.

"Wait and see"

"This this……"

Everyone looked at each other, why are you not in a hurry?This is the crime of beheading!

"Your Highness, it's better to reverse it!"

Everyone's face changed drastically, and they looked at Zhang Fang who spoke in horror, and moved away unconsciously, trying to avoid him far away, grandma, dare to encourage His Highness to rebel.

Sima Yi took a deep look at Zhang Fang, Zhang Fang lowered his head in shock, his eyes were flickering, did he discover something.

"Zhang Fang, you are presumptuous!"

Someone pointed at Zhang Fang's nose, blushing with anger.

"How dare you have such a rebellious idea"

"...Maybe it's a good idea"

Some people's faces were quite moved, and they thought about it secretly.

"You are all crazy!"

Some people even looked mad and disbelieving.

Everyone in the audience was discussing and arguing, and Sima Yi's expression became more and more ugly.

"Shut up all of you. This matter is of great importance. Wait for Gu to discuss it carefully before making a decision. You must not act rashly. You all step back."

It was only then that everyone realized that Sima Yi had an angry look on his face. They couldn't stay here for long, so they all bid farewell and left.

The room finally became quiet, and Sima Yi was in the mood to think carefully about what to do next.

Everything seems to have returned to the original track of history, and Kangxi is afraid that the idea of ​​abolishing the prince once again arises.Regarding Zhang Fang's theory of rebellion, he is not indifferent, but is this the best way to solve the problem?Obviously not, if he really raises an army, let alone the chances of winning, at least the charge will be fulfilled, and he will never have a chance to turn back.More importantly, he is now trapped in the capital, and he doesn't have much military power in his hands. He can't stop Kangxi's army at all, so he might as well take a gamble.

What's more, no matter which path he chooses, the worst outcome is to be imprisoned. No matter how unpredictable the emperor's heart is, it is difficult to make the decision to kill his son.It's just a matter of urgency, he needs to know who is behind the scenes.

"Everyone slow down!"

After leaving the palace, everyone looked at Zhang Fang who stood in front of them with puzzled expressions.

"Ms. Zhang wants to entertain you all, can you show me your face?"

Zhang Fang looked at the crowd with a gentle face, and made some vague temptations.

At such a sensitive moment, there is still the thought of entertaining others. Everyone looked at each other and thought about it in their hearts. People who didn't want to cause trouble for themselves made excuses to leave. Zhang Fang didn't make it difficult, and sent people away with a kind face and stayed. Many people have their own ideas.

A group of people headed towards the big restaurant in Beijing, and entered an exquisite private room under the leadership of Xiao Er.

"The law does not spread to the six ears, the sound insulation here is very good, no one will hear our conversation"

After entering the room, Zhang Xin carefully noticed some people's hesitation, and explained patiently.

The food and wine were quickly put on the table. As the largest restaurant in Beijing, the taste was not bad compared to the imperial meal. Everyone was drinking and drinking, and the atmosphere quickly became warm.

Halfway through drinking, Zhang Fang suddenly spoke.

"I wonder what your lords think about Zhang's proposal today?"

Everyone was shocked, the one who was supposed to come finally came, the drinker put down the cup in his hand, the eater put down the chopsticks in his hand, the eyes of the neighbors met, and the eye contact continued, the scene turned cold for a while, Zhang Fang still smiled, not feeling embarrassed at all.

"Master Zhang's proposal is very interesting, but His Highness has made an order not to let us act rashly."

"That's right, not to mention that His Highness may not accept your proposal"

"Don't you think Mr. Zhang's proposal is too risky?"

"..."

Everyone spoke one after another, with an expression that although I want to help you, I have more than enough energy but not enough energy. I have been an official for a long time, and other things may not be very good, but this is second to none.

Zuo listened to each other, Zhang Fang wasn't angry, he wasn't impatient at all, but it meant to make others look at this prince's official who had no sense of presence on weekdays with admiration.

"I, Zhang, understand everyone's thoughts, so you might as well listen to what I have to say."

"If it weren't for the critical situation, I wouldn't have made this suggestion. His Royal Highness is a pure and filial person. Even with a sword in his hand, it would be difficult to make such a decision. However, as the prince's subjects, we should make suggestions for His Royal Highness, do our best, and die After that, do you think what I said makes sense?"

"After the Holy Majesty abolished the crown prince, His Highness's favor is no longer what it used to be. What's more, the princes have entered the court one after another, and His Highness's situation has become more and more severe. Now that something like this has happened again, no matter what the final result is, His Highness's future will be feared." It's the end, so why not take this opportunity to take a gamble, maybe you can save the defeat, once this is successful, the future of everyone here is really bright!"

Everyone's eyes were flickering, and there were quite a few people who wanted to be moved. After all, this skill from the dragon is the road to heaven!

"We are all subjects of the prince. If the prince wins, we will be honored. If the prince loses, we will die. If the prince is captured this time, then our end will only be death. Everyone may wish to think about it!"

After talking about his vision for the future, Zhang Fang had to say something to make them wake up. To deal with these old fritters who have been in the officialdom for many years, the stick and the carrot are undoubtedly the best last resort.Maybe not everyone wants to be a powerful minister, but at least everyone doesn't want to die young. Looking at the pale faces of everyone present, Zhang Fang's goal today is at least half successful.

"But Your Highness said..."

Some people are moved, but there are still some hesitation.

"If His Highness knows about this, then..."

"Hey, my lord has heard a saying that the emperor's orders will not be granted. Everything we do is to let His Highness ascend to the throne as soon as possible. Little do we know that Song □ Zhao Kuangyin is dressed in a yellow robe. As long as we do well, His Highness will know I won’t blame him, and maybe I will give you a big reward. Besides, doing anything is risky, if this adult doesn’t want to participate in Zhang, he won’t force it.”

Zhang Fang glanced at the man, his eyes were full of disappointment, and he looked lacking in nature.

Such disdain and contempt obviously made the adult burst into anger.

"Could Master Zhang look down on me? Since Master Zhang dares to do such a serious thing, I dare to bet on this game, hum!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Fang clapped his hands and laughed.

"In this case, let's drink this glass of wine and celebrate the grand event together"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but they also stood up. Since they chose to come here with Zhang Fang, they made a decision in their hearts and wanted to find a way out in the dead end.

After a few rounds of discussions, it slowly fell into the night, and all the adults were blushing from drinking, looking extremely excited.

Zhang Fang called the carriage and sent everyone back to their mansion one by one before leaving.

The carriage rattled around in the city, and the capital city was lit up at night.

"My lord, is there something wrong with your actions today?"

"You are making such a big fuss to woo people today, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the East Palace!"

"I know, but this is exactly my purpose, hoping to buy him more time"

"But, the safety of adults?!"

There was an exclamation of disbelief and sadness.

"It doesn't matter, it is my blessing to be able to serve the prince's great cause. I only hope that the prince can achieve what he wants."

Zhang Fang's tone is very open-minded, as long as the prince can succeed, he will definitely benefit his family, and it may not be his way to achieve a great cause by sacrificing one person.

"grown ups……"

The sad whimpers disappeared in the evening wind, and the sound of horseshoes faded away.
