Crown Prince's Counterattack

"Third brother, what are you doing?"

Zhu Shuang looked down at the soldier talisman that was half exposed in his arms, with an unpredictable expression.

"You want my soldier talisman?"

Zhu Shuang let go of Zhu Bian's hand, and stepped back a few steps, with guard in his eyes.

From the very beginning, he faintly felt that something was wrong. His third brother was never a hospitable person. He was closer to his elder brother since he was a child, but his relationship with this younger brother who was not much younger than himself was a bit cold. In addition, he hadn't seen him for many years. The personal relationship is just a familiar stranger, but today he suddenly warmly invited him to the house, and he kept persuading him to drink during the dinner, which made him affirm the guess in his heart. As for his explanation, Zhu Shuang was also dubious, he believed in his own Intuition is more than what his ears hear.

"Aren't you drunk?! You lied to me?!"

Zhu Bing's face suddenly became ugly, he didn't expect that this seemingly silly person was so shrewd, he was confused by what he saw, but since he had already noticed it, why did he pretend to be so stupid? Playing tricks on him, Zhu Yan almost gritted his teeth and looked at Zhu Shuang, he didn't want to admit that he fell into the hands of this person he never looked down on.

Of course Zhu Shuang was not drunk, such a small amount of wine would not make him unconscious, he just wanted to know what his younger brother wanted to do, but unexpectedly the result was very unexpected...

"What do you want the talisman for?"

Ignoring Zhu Yan's anger, Zhu Shuang showed his little-known shrewd side. The military talisman is so important that he can only rest assured that he only carries it with him. If he accidentally loses it, it will be a felony. The younger brother wanted to get drunk and steal the soldier talisman, don't think there must be nothing good in it.

"Give me the soldier talisman, otherwise..."

Now that the matter had been brought to light, Zhu Yan didn't want to continue to conceal his purpose any longer. He stared closely at the soldier talisman in Zhu Shuang's hand, his eyes flashed with fire.

As long as he has this soldier talisman, maybe he can... So he must get this thing.

Zhu Shuang noticed that it was unnatural for Zhu Yan to disappear in a flash. At the feet of the emperor, their status was precious, and it was impossible for their lives to be in danger. Then why did he want the soldier talisman in his hand? think……

"You idiot, what the hell are you trying to do?!"

Thinking of that possibility, Zhu Shuang's breath became short of breath instantly, his eyes were full of disbelief, he really couldn't believe that his third younger brother was so courageous, if things were revealed, and he took his own soldier talisman, then this Didn't he take the blame for it? ! !

Zhu Shuang gave him a gouging look. Even though he hasn't been close for so many years, he secretly kills his brothers. Such a younger brother is really chilling.

"You don't need to know what I want to do, as long as you are willing to give me what you have, I will definitely not treat my second brother badly in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

Zhu Yan knew that his second brother would definitely not hand over things easily, so appropriate coercion and inducement were necessary.

Zhu Shuang was extremely disdainful in his heart, so he would not hand over things. Now he is really touched by the cold nature of this third brother, so how can he trust this kind of person again, not to mention that he doesn't want to go into this muddy water at all. Even if Zhu Yan had his own soldiers and horses in his hands, Zhu Shuang didn't think that what he wanted to do would be successful.The question he has to think about now is how he can escape from Zhu Yan's mansion.

Because he was here for a banquet and it was his brother's mansion, Zhu Shuang didn't bring many people here at all, and now he is extremely regretting his decision.

Zhu Shuang was focused on guarding Zhu Bian, but he didn't expect a sudden sharp pain in the back of his head, and then his eyes were completely dark.

Zhao Lu picked up the soldier talisman that fell on the ground, and handed it to Zhu Yan.

"Why are you here? Didn't the king let you have a good rest?"

Because Chao Lu was pregnant, Zhu Bing had been taking good care of her in the past few days, and even reprimanded her with a sense of pampering and helplessness.

"The concubine is also worried about the prince, but now it seems that the concubine came at the right time.

The woman's footsteps were very light, and Zhu Shuang's attention was focused on Zhu Yan, so in the end, the horse stumbled.

"Ghost spirit—"

Zhu Bing nodded Chaolu's nose, her eyes showed approval, obviously her actions just now really helped him a lot.

"Now everything is ready and only owes the east wind"

Zhu Yan looked at the military talisman he had just received from Zhu Shuang with complicated eyes, and his heart was filled with excitement that he had never felt before.

Zhu Yan ordered his servants to arrest Zhu Shuang, and before the matter was resolved, he could only wrong him, the second brother, to squat in the dungeon.

The joy of the New Year has not completely dissipated. This time, several feudal princes who were ordered to enter the capital have already rushed to their fiefs one after another. Only a few favored feudal princes are still in the capital. Among them are Zhu Di, King of Yan, Zhu Yan, King of Gong, and Zhu Shuang, King of Min.

Before dawn, the sentry posts in the palace rotated again. This was the time when the night watchmen were most sleepy. At this time, the gate of Xuanwu Gate was suddenly opened...

"Hurry up-"

Soldiers wearing armor sneaked into the palace quietly under the cover of night, and the guards here were all under control. Zhu Yan was protected by everyone in the middle, and he was also wearing the armor leading the soldiers. He didn't see the slightest sluggishness, but he was extremely excited, his eyes were full of brilliance. On the one hand, Zhu Wei sent someone to quietly take down all the guards in the inner palace, and on the other hand, he walked quickly towards Zhu Yuanzhang's bedroom under the protection of everyone.

When he arrived, the guards guarding the door of the bedroom had already been dealt with.Before reaching the door, he stopped suddenly, his expression flashed with helplessness, and seeing the eyes of everyone looking at him, Zhu Yan took a deep breath and pushed open the door of Zhu Yuanzhang's bedroom.

The hall was dark, and Zhu Yan's nerves were tense. He was shocked when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting motionless by the bed and looking at him. , He stepped back a few steps, saw Zhu Yuanzhang staring at him expressionlessly, and finally greeted him with a salute.

"I didn't expect you to have such courage."

There was no joy or anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's tone, only a touch of surprise.

"Father, apart from the prince, I'm afraid he can't see anyone else in his eyes."

Zhu Yan didn't know why he would say these words out of impulse.

"Yes, I value the crown prince, but I have never treated other sons badly."

Zhu Yuanzhang gave Zhu Yan a strange look, but everything he did was a helpless choice. The world only needs one master who suits him, and everyone else must make way for him. Zhu Yuanzhang never thought that his decision was wrong. He is an emperor, and what he sees should be the whole community.

Treated badly?Maybe it was because he didn't treat him badly, but that's all. Putting away the slight sadness in his heart, Zhu Yan regained his calm mood.

He took a few steps forward and looked down at Zhu Yuanzhang, trying to create a little deterrence in his heart, but he underestimated the founding emperor who had been a soldier for half his life, and his every move seemed a little less exciting to Zhu Yuanzhang .

"Father, you are getting old. It's time to hand over the world to young people. I implore Father to abdicate."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Yan took out the imperial decree that had been drawn up from his sleeve and sent it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter suddenly, looking at Zhu Yan with inexplicably complicated eyes.

"After so many years, you are still the first person who dares to say such words to me. Even if you are my own son, I will not let you off lightly. You led soldiers into my bedroom, threatened me with words, and forced me to Signing the imperial decree of this Zen position, all of this Zhuangzhuang is a felony of treason, you are really my good son"

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, and he pointed at Zhu's nose and criticized, his tone full of sarcasm. Seeing Zhu's unmoved expression, he finally said something that made his expression change drastically.

"But you don't think you're really sure of winning, do you?"

"What does the emperor mean by this?"

Zhu Yan's aura was a little unstable. With Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament, he would disdain to lie, which meant that there was still a big loophole in his plan, and he might turn over at any time because of this loophole.

"Aren't you always dissatisfied that I value the prince? Then I will tell you the reason now, because compared with the prince, you are too stupid. Look behind you."

The moment Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the entire dormitory was lit up. Zhu Yan clearly saw that his confidantes who had followed him into the palace just now were tied up and knelt on the ground. Already surrounded by guards.Zhu Yuanzhang was also guarded by the guards, and he had no chance at all.

Zhu Fen's face turned pale all of a sudden, he knew he was done...

"I really didn't want to see my third brother again, it turned out to be under such circumstances"

Sima Yi came out from the cover of others, looked at Zhu Bing with regret, but he was another pawn being used by others.

"Big brother, are you okay..."

After Zhu Yan was surprised, he felt unexpectedly relieved. Finally, there was another good thing. He knew that he was doomed this time. At this moment, he was calm.

"Yes, Gu is not in a coma, this is just a game set up to attract people to appear, but Gu never thought that this person would be you, the third brother"

"That's right, it's me. I did all of this. Brother, you can punish me however you want, but can you please let my family go, for the sake of your mother and my deceased mother?"

In order to keep Chao Lu and the child in her belly, Zhu Bian even did not hesitate to show off the face of the former queen, he hoped that Sima Yi would let their mother and child go, so that he could rest assured when he died.

"If you know the other truth and still insist, Gu will make the decision to save the person for you."

In Sima Yi's eyes, Zhu Yan's joy was only sad, and he ordered the guards to bring out the woman he was thinking of.
