Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4080 A strange desire
Cheng Chu clicked his tongue silently, thinking to himself that he couldn't understand his father's operations with such a brain, so he didn't need to ask any more questions, as long as he obeyed...

However, there is still a little worry in my heart: "Father's words are true, but what if His Majesty has something unbearable to say before the edict of Yi Chu is issued?"

Cheng Yaojin was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, put the teacup heavily on the table, and said angrily: "I have been talking about feelings for so long? How can you be my seed? As long as the edict of Yi Chu has not been issued for a day, The crown prince is still the crown prince, and if His Majesty is not here, the crown prince is the king of a country, so naturally he is the object of our swearing allegiance to the death, so why not ask?"

Cheng Chumo said: "But after all, the Shandong family supports King Jin, how will father deal with himself then?"

Back then, the Shandong aristocratic family gave the Cheng family great support, asking for soldiers for soldiers and money for money, and the treatment was hardly inferior to that of Li Ji. Now, after decades, they finally have the opportunity to establish the merits of Conglong. How could it be you who said "" Is it enough to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country?
No matter how slow Cheng Chumo is to these things, he still understands the principle of "family and country" in the mouth of the family.
This time, Cheng Yaojin did not reprimand him, but was a little surprised: "You are so stupid that you can think of this question... But in the end, you are still very stupid. So what if the Shandong family is dissatisfied? We don't have to express our position early , only claiming to be loyal to His Majesty, when the time comes, there will naturally be someone standing in front.”

The imperial power changes, and the right choice will certainly benefit endlessly, but once the wrong choice is made, it will be lost forever.

Cheng Yaojin doesn't have too much obsession with power, he doesn't care what kind of power is in the hands of the government and the opposition, if he really lets him dominate the world, he also knows that he doesn't have that ability.

So, why bother to take great risks to try to gain the power of the dragon?

It is enough to occupy the capital, assume the responsibility of guarding the capital, and not be excluded during the change of imperial power.

Cheng Chumo understood his father's attitude, and nodded quickly, but he was curious in his heart, so he couldn't help asking: "In my father's opinion, which side do you like?"

Cheng Yaojin kicked the eldest son's leg, drove him out, and cursed: "Your Majesty is still alive, and you are so disrespectful, really think that I can't kill my relatives righteously? Get out of here, I've been staring at you for two days." Everywhere in the capital, if there is a slight omission, pay attention to your good skin!"

When the eldest son retreated in a hurry, Cheng Yaojin grabbed the teacup and took a sip. He felt that it was tasteless, so he threw the teacup aside and muttered: "One or two are either staring at the big man, or thinking about the merits of being a dragon. If you are willing to give up your family and life, you must go on and on, why bother?"

Get up and go to the side of the bed, lying down with clothes on, but can't fall asleep with eyes wide open...

Who has a better chance?

It seems that the king of Jin has the support of the elites in Shandong and Jiangnan, and His Majesty has a bias in his heart. He should already have an advantage in the battle for the reserve. It's really too bad to hand over the position to King Jin.

And King Jin's performance can't convince the public...

What's more, if you really thought that the prince avoided going to the Daci'en Temple to stay out of the fight for the crown, did you really lie down without distracting thoughts?
Just looking at the tit-for-tat momentum between Fang Jun and King Jin's family tonight, one knows that the East Palace may not be reconciled.

At the very least, if you want to win a chance for the prince to survive, you must show an appropriate attitude and strength, and meet the conditions with the new crown prince. superior?
Even if His Majesty promulgates the edict of Yi Chu at this moment, confirming the new crown prince, the battle for the crown is far from final, and the situation is turbulent, so we should stay away and not get involved...

*****
Outside the golden light gate, there is the camp of Houwei on the right.

It was not yet dawn, but torches were already everywhere in the camp, and it was as bright as day. The soldiers had already put on leather armor and shoulder pads, wiped their blades, and were ready for battle at any time under the orders of their respective captains.The horses were fed with fodder by the groom, put on protective gear, and led out of the stable.

The whole barracks was screaming and busy.

In the tent of the Chinese Army, Yu Wenshi and Yu Chigong sat opposite each other. On the table in the center was a map of the deployment of the vicinity of Chang'an, which listed the establishment, number, types, and generals of the troops stationed in various places on it, which was clear at a glance. .

Among them, the most eye-catching person is Zuo Wuwei, who has already settled in Chang'an City, and the small flag with the word "Cheng" is very clear...

Yuchi Gong let out a long sigh: "Zuo Wuwei is stationed in Chang'an, it seems that His Majesty has made a decision on the hesitation about the ownership of the reserve in his heart, and the chances of winning the king of Jin have greatly increased."

He didn't really care whether the new reserve was the king of Jin or the king of Wei, but leading the army to Chang'an as a symbol of stability in the court, not only represented the trust of His Majesty Li Er, but also the biggest figure who would quickly move closer to the new reserve in the future. capital.

Who doesn't want to make a contribution to the dragon, to be prosperous and rich for generations, with military power in hand for a long time?
However, at the moment when the Guanlongmen Clan is gradually intending to support the Crown Prince of the East Palace, Cheng Yaojin's entry to Beijing is like a blow to the Guanlongmen Clan...

If you can't support the East Palace to stabilize the reserve position and make great achievements, how will you gain a foothold and restore glory in the future?
Yuwen Shiji also looked dignified, but comforted him: "Yi Chu's edict has not been issued for a long time, who knows what His Majesty thinks in his heart? King Jin's reserve position may not be stable, and the Eastern Palace may not be completely without chance. The king also has a chance. What's more, His Majesty is suddenly critically ill. What happened to the dragon body has not been known yet. Once something happens, who can guarantee what will happen? You are also an old man who has been fighting for a long time. At this time, you should not worry about anything. To stabilize the morale of the army, we only need to wait for the situation to change and we can make a final decision."

With the Guanlongmen faction completely withdrawing from the court, his new "leader" is also far away from the center, and he was not even qualified to enter the Taiji Palace when His Majesty suddenly fainted...

But this is not important, what is important is that the situation must have changed.

Regardless of whether His Majesty has fainted since then, has something unbearable to say, or His Majesty recovers and immediately promulgates the edict of changing the reserve, all forces will not allow King Jin to sit firmly on the reserve position.

Wait for the situation to change, and then make an accurate move at the right time. Whether you support the East Palace to stabilize the reserve position, or assist the king of Wei and the king of Jin to achieve a great position, you will fight for a completely different situation for the Guanlongmen Clan.

Of course, this move is tantamount to taking millet out of the fire, and there are many dangers. Once you choose the wrong target to support, there is no room for error.

But precisely because of this, Yuwen Shi and his gaze gradually became firmer. Back then, Eldest Sun Wuji was able to support His Majesty Li Er to achieve the unprecedented glory of the Guanlongmen Clan. Today, why can't he follow the plan and restore the Guanlongmen Clan from its decline?
Some people have been right all their lives, but when they are wrong once, the conclusion is drawn and there will never be a day of turning around.

And some people are mediocre all their lives, but as long as they succeed once in the end, they will have a bright history and be passed down as a good story in the world...

Yu Chigong nodded silently, but his spirit was not uplifted.

No matter how you look at it, King Jin has a greater chance of winning, and with the support of Shandong and Dilemma clans, how can they put Guanlong clan in their eyes?

If His Majesty recovers as usual, maybe there is still a last trace of suspense in the reserve position, but if His Majesty falls asleep after that, or even unbearable things happen, who can take back the reserve position from King Jin?

Zuo Wuwei under Cheng Yaojin's command is one of the most elite troops among the sixteen guards. Now they are stationed in Chang'an, backed by a thick and strong city wall, who can break through the city?When the Taiji Palace is under the control of King Jin, if the fame and righteousness are in his hands, even if it is self-reliance, who can do anything about it?

As long as the East Palace is wiped out from top to bottom, following the example of the "Xuanwu Gate Change", the position of emperor will surely fall into the hands of King Jin.And after the "Xuanwu Gate Change", His Majesty Li Er had great courage and broad-mindedness. He only punished the culprit and ignored the rest. Overwhelming all parties, let alone having the courage, if you want to secure the throne, you can only cut off dissidents and kill wantonly.

All opponents will be liquidated, and there will be no dead bodies...

The more he thought about it, the more his heart pounded.

Even though he is from the Guanlong lineage, his power and status are obtained through real military exploits, and he has not received much support and favor from the Guanlong clan, so why should he be tied to them and gradually embark on this dead end?

He glanced at Yuwen Shiji indistinctly at the end of his eyes, and an idea floated up in his heart.

Wealth and wealth are in danger, if you want to ensure the power and status of the Yuchi family, if you want to be prosperous and prosperous in the future, maybe you can only hide it once...

Yuwen Shi and naturally didn't know that the person in front of him who had been placed high hopes by all the Guanlongmen clan had a different heart, and after contemplating for a while, he couldn't sit still, got up and said: "I still have to find a way to enter the palace, I can't grasp the real situation of your majesty, It is too passive, even if there is a mutation, it is difficult to respond, which is very wrong."

Yuchi Gong was stunned: "How did you get into the palace?"

Now that the Guanlongmen Clan is being rejected, and it is even more of a crime, how can they still have the right to enter the palace to listen to news at this time?
Yuwen Shiji took the cloak on the side, put it on his body, and said with a smile: "Even if the old man wears a sinful body, this old face still has some dignity. Even if he kneels in front of the palace gate and begs, those people will You have to remember a little bit of the love of the past. You rectify your troops and horses, and wait for the news, don't slack off."

After all, turn around and leave.

Seeing Yuwen Shi and his old body hunched out of the tent, Yu Chigong's cheeks twitched, hesitation first appeared in his heart, and then he firmly suppressed it.

Water flows to lower place, man goes to higher position.

Today's Guanlongmen Clan has almost become a street rat, everyone shouts and beats everyone, and no one can avoid it. Except for Yuwenshi and these old people who are still struggling hard, who among the younger generation is still optimistic about the future of the Guanlongmen Clan?
This big ship used to break through the waves and move forward indomitably, but today, it is leaking and rotten, and it is time to sink...
