After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

In the following two months, several pieces of news shocked the four countries.

First, in order to eliminate the locusts, Daxia called on the people of Daxia to join Wu Yi's army in going deep into the fiefdom of King Huainan, catching locusts and exchanging them for silver.

Secondly, the city gates of the King of Huainan's fiefdom were opened wide, and the people lined the streets to welcome him. The military and the people were like one family, and the locust plague was suppressed at an extremely fast speed.

Third, the King of Huainan took the initiative to admit that he had deliberately concealed the news of the locust plague because he had the intention of rebellion, which caused great harm to the people of Daxia. The emperor issued an edict that all the descendants of the King of Huainan were demoted to commoners, and the King of Huainan himself and his immediate family were exiled to the north.

Fourthly, before leaving, the King of Huainan severely criticized the policies of the princes, took the initiative to offer the "Enfeoffment Order", and called on the princes to implement it on their own initiative.

Fifth, the Prince of Yan and the Prince of Jing stood up to support the Enfeoffment Order and sent troops to help maintain it.

……

After these pieces of news appeared, anyone with a mouth in the four countries would come out to comment.

The senior executives who had a vested interest in these matters were like headless flies, running around in shock.

For example, the remaining three princes of the Xia Kingdom were the King of Linjiang, the King of Hengshan, and the King of Xiping.

They were horrified by the news.

The King of Huainan actually took the initiative to admit his mistakes and offered a plan to slay the dragon, the "Enfeoffment Order"? The sun rises from the west? Or is it going to rain red?

The three princes didn't even dare to use carrier pigeons to chat. They urgently agreed on a location, and the three of them set off without stopping. After gathering together, they started a meeting.

The three of them first said in unison: "Is the King of Huainan crazy?" "Is the King of Huainan dead?" "The King of Huainan is gone!"

The three of them fell silent again.

Then, they compared information with each other.

But no matter how they studied it, there was no sign of King Huainan's madness.

At this moment, King Linjiang suddenly slammed his fist on the table. "Damn it! Could it be that King Huainan was playing a trick on us? Pretending to rebel? In fact, he is the tyrant's man, trying to lure us? Catch us all in one fell swoop?"

The steady King of Xiping waved his hands and said, "Impossible. What does he want? To have his property confiscated? To have his descendants become commoners?"

King Linjiang was full of resentment: "Maybe the seizure of property was also an act? He has come up with such a despicable thing as the 'Enfeoffment Order'. How dare he return to his fiefdom? Isn't he afraid of being beaten to death by us? Fortunately, I have never expressed my dissatisfaction with the tyrant in front of him, otherwise I might have been confiscated today."

King Hengshan also had a face full of resentment: "We are all princes, how could we give birth to such a traitor! Bastard, what good is there in stabbing us in the back! Fortunately, I am afraid of death, so I didn't complain."

The corners of the steady Xiping King's mouth twitched slightly, and he waved his fan: "My two brothers, calm down. Do you think the King of Huainan has the brains to deceive all three of us?"

"It's impossible for the King of Huainan. But don't forget the tyrant." King Hengshan and King Linjiang said in unison, "Why did the two kings suddenly fight among themselves, and how did he come to power? Have you forgotten it, brother? And King Yan and King Jing also took the initiative to serve as checkpoints."

Thinking of Prince Yan and Prince Jing, Prince Xiping paused while fanning himself: "That's right."

When King Hengshan saw that his smartest brother also had this tendency, his own imagination became more and more creative.

King Hengshan said: "Brother. The more I think about it, the more I feel that the confiscation of property is a play by the tyrant to protect the King of Huainan. For example, they confiscated the property here, and then secretly gave the King of Huainan a new title and made him a king, so that he can enjoy the good life in the north."

King Linjiang became even more angry: "I am so angry! It just so happens that the Xiongnu in the north are at war, so I can use my military merits to gain an excuse to be crowned king again!"

King Xiping stroked his chin thoughtfully, and finally said: "It's outrageous, but this speculation does make some sense."

At this point, he looked at his two brothers and said, "Let's do this. The situation is unclear now, so it's better to stay still than to move. Take this Enfeoffment Order first. Anyway, it will take a hundred years for the three of us brothers to have a weakening effect."

When King Hengshan and King Linjiang heard this, they nodded in unison.

King Hengshan asked again: "Should we talk to the Queen Mother about this?"

Prince Xiping waved his fan calmly and said, "The Queen Mother has been worshipping Buddha for nearly a year and will soon be back. All right. Just try to find out."

……

The Chu court.

The old emperor of Chu coughed twice and said, "Detain the King of Huainan and take away his fiefdom. The emperor of Xia... made a brilliant move."

The eldest prince of Chu asked, "Father, I don't understand. Why did the King of Huainan give in? The officials of his fiefdom also took the initiative to hand over his fiefdom."

The old emperor of Chu glanced at him speechlessly: "The emperor of Daxia sent troops south to provide disaster relief and let the people make money. Which official in the fiefdom of King Huainan dared to refuse? They would be killed by the hungry people in the fiefdom of King Huainan. What's more, Daxia's "human butcher" personally led the troops, and King Huainan was not in the fiefdom to command. Without a leader, who would dare to rebel?"

The eldest prince blushed and said, "Son, I understand. Isn't the Emperor of Daxia afraid of rebellion from other princes?"

The old emperor of Chu could not help but smash the cup over and said, "You are the only one who keeps shouting about becoming a general. Not only do you look at things one-sidedly, but you can't even analyze the most basic maps. Think carefully about where the fiefs of Prince Jing and Prince Yan are. The fiefs of these two people not only separate the fiefs of the other three princes, but also form a natural barrier to protect Kyoto, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Unless the strength of the other three princes is three times stronger than it is now, they can't defeat Kyoto at all. How can they rebel when they can't defeat it? Rebel by committing suicide?"

The eldest prince nodded repeatedly and dared not say anything.

The old emperor of Chu stopped looking at him and frowned: "The only thing I'm confused about is that the emperor didn't fight with Prince Jing and Prince Yan first, and trusted Prince Jing and Prince Yan to garrison in a place that is a must-fight for military strategists? Why? Isn't he afraid that Prince Yan and Prince Jing will rebel? Fourth son, what do you think?"

The Fourth Prince suddenly thought of what the Grand Master had done before, and he said, "Father, perhaps it was the excellent intelligence system of Daxia that convinced the Emperor of Daxia that Prince Yan and Prince Jing would not rebel in the short term."

The Emperor of Chu, who had never seen Yuan Ruan's awesomeness, sneered: "Naive." Then he coughed twice and said: "Forget it. No matter what, Daxia will probably be overcome by this tyrant. What a pity."

……

The Shu Kingdom court.

The officials would only talk about Daxia in their spare time, and then continue to be busy covering up the scandals of the Daxia royal family.

The old emperor of Shu Kingdom has seldom attended court recently. He spends every day in the harem revolving around a man, performing all kinds of acts of robbery and plunder, and chasing his husband to the crematorium.

In addition, the prince of Shu Kingdom has not been paying attention to his court recently. He wants to kill his beloved woman's noble lover from Chen Kingdom every day, but is blocked by his legal wife. What's more embarrassing is that the woman the prince of Shu Kingdom loves is fighting with his legal wife in the street to compete for the noble lover from Chen Kingdom. The prince of Shu Kingdom can only be helpless and furious.

Every day, the officials of Shu Kingdom either tried to comfort the old emperor or took sides on behalf of the prince of Shu Kingdom.

If it weren't for the fear of becoming the laughing stock of the four kingdoms, or the anger of the other kingdoms, the officials of Shu Kingdom would not want to go to work for a single day.

Their resentment now is greater than that of ghosts. Even if a meteorite falls outside, they will only say "Why don't you smash the Shu Kingdom's palace" and then continue to keep their mouths shut.
