Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Chapter 774: The troops are all here, and we can trust the people we employ

"Whether it is credible or not can be determined by this incident!"

The fourth prince Chu Ying sneered and said, “If this plan succeeds, I will naturally use him.

If he dares to play tricks in this matter, I will definitely not let him off easily.

Speaking of which, he doesn't seem to have much room for control over this matter, otherwise I would not have agreed to his request."

Chu Ying smiled contemptuously: "There are not many people who dare to play tricks in front of me. If He Peng is sincere in surrendering, it's fine. If he has second thoughts, I will make him lose his head.

Okay, the two adults go and deal with the impeachment first, and I, He Peng, will personally send someone to keep an eye on it."

"Yes!" Liu Yunqing and Mo Yushan responded and went down to deal with it immediately!

In just one day, under the persuasion of Liu Yunqing and Mo Yushan, many ministers in the city signed their names on the joint memorial.

The pressure that the Crown Prince brought his troops into the palace today put on them was too great, and many people even felt that they would not survive the day.

Now that they finally have the opportunity to impeach the prince, they are of course happy to do so.

What's more, the Fourth Prince was the one who took the lead in this matter. Even if the Emperor blamed him, the Fourth Prince would take the blame.

Besides, the law does not hold everyone responsible. So many ministers have signed their names. The emperor cannot punish all of them, right?

Besides, it was the prince who led the troops into the palace, so he was in the wrong first. Their impeachment of the prince was well-founded.

Dozens of officials signed their names in one day!

But the news could not escape the eyes of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and Jia Yu received the news in the evening.

Outside the city, outside a temple deep in the mountains.

A man dressed in white brocade clothes, holding a spear, waving it continuously, could be heard making sounds like dragons roaring and tigers howling.

At this time, Jia Yu walked quickly over with a piece of information.

Chu Ning, who was practicing shooting, heard something and immediately put away his gun and stopped.

Looking at Jia Yu walking quickly, Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Mr. Jia is in a hurry, I guess there must be good news from the city."

Jia Yu laughed out loud: "Your Highness the Prince of Chu is truly a man of great foresight."

"Stop flattering."

Chu Ning threw the spear to the soldier beside him, wiped the sweat off his face with a silk scarf, and asked, "Tell me, who started it first?"

Jia Yu smiled and handed over the information: "Your Highness, you will know after you read it."

Chu Ning reached out and took the information, which was divided into two parts.

The first part was sent by Lu Xiuwen, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who recounted what happened during the morning court session.

The other part was sent by the Embroidered Uniform Guard, which contained all the information about the four princes jointly impeaching the crown prince, as well as the signatures of many ministers in the city.

After reading the intelligence, Chu Ning showed a playful look on his face: "The prince is really bold to lead troops into the palace. However, in this way, although he has taken down the position of Imperial Censor, he has offended many ministers. The loss outweighs the gain!"

After taking a look at the intelligence in his hand, Chu Ning shook his head: "It seems that the upcoming fight in Kyoto City will be more intense than I imagined.

Send a message to the Embroidered Uniform Guards, asking them to pay attention to both sides' things, and the palace must also step up its vigilance.

Although they are fighting each other and may not consider this palace, no one can guarantee that they will not do something desperate after failure."

Everything in the city was under Chu Ning's control. He was just a little worried about Shen Wanying.

Although he knew that the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were fighting and had no time to target the Chu Palace, he was still a little worried.

Jia Yu chuckled when he heard this: "Your Highness is worried and confused. The Prince of Chu's Mansion does not pose any threat to either of them now, and their forces will not be dispersed to deal with the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

When two tigers fight, if one of them is distracted, he will definitely give his opponent a chance. Moreover, this is a fight for the throne, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed."

After a pause, Jia Yu continued, "There is one more thing. The 20,000 soldiers from Bingzhou have already arrived outside the capital. In order to hide their whereabouts, they have all split up into small groups.

However, if they gather together now, they might be discovered, and food supply will also be a problem."

The 20,000 troops from Bingzhou were transferred by Chu Ning at that time. After marching for a period of time, they finally arrived outside the capital.

But feeding 20,000 people is a big problem. After all, they have to hide their whereabouts, and once they make large purchases, there is no guarantee that they will not be noticed.

This is Kyoto City, and all forces have spies. Once these 20,000 people are discovered, it will be extremely unfavorable to the subsequent situation.

Now the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince are fighting, and it has come to the most critical moment. If they offend the 20,000 Bingzhou soldiers outside the city, they will definitely not continue to fight!

However, Chu Ning chuckled when he heard this: "I believe that Lord Jia will have his own way to handle this matter."

Ever since Jia Yu surrendered, many things have been handled by this person, and Chu Ning has gradually adapted to the role of a hands-off boss.

Jia Yu smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, it will cost a lot of money to feed these 20,000 people..."

"Just transfer from the palace!"

Chu Ning smiled and said, "Since this king has given you the power, you should make good use of it."

"By the way, regarding the Crown Prince and Fourth Brother, who do you think will win?"

Jia Yu thought about it, shook his head and said, “It’s hard to say. The Crown Prince now has 30,000 soldiers and horses, but the Fourth Prince has the support of so many ministers. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

If you want to decide the winner, you can only see who's weakness is exposed to the other side, so that the other side can seize the flaw and strike a fatal blow.

This time when the two of them fight, one of them will never be able to turn the tables."

The smile on Chu Ning's face disappeared when the last sentence fell.

He knew that Jia Yu was right.

This is the cruelty of the royal succession battle. Once failed, everything will be lost.

Chu Ning sighed and shook his head: "It's already June. I hope they can decide the winner as soon as possible so as not to affect the taxes and grains that will be paid this year."

He couldn't control the fight between the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince, but he didn't want it to affect the overall situation of the Chu State.

As long as there is a good harvest this year, he will be able to conquer the State of Yan and completely solve the problem of Yunzhou.

Once Yunzhou falls into his hands, he will completely control Bingzhou, Liangzhou and Yunzhou. The three states connected together, plus the vast land of Zhao State, the number of cities he will control will exceed that of Chu State!

By then, even if he was no longer the crown prince of Chu, he could still proclaim himself emperor!

Thinking of this, Chu Ning waved his hand: "Go down and make arrangements!"

Jia Yu bowed, turned and left.

At the same time, the Crown Prince also received news that the Fourth Prince was preparing to jointly impeach him.

Imperial Palace, East Palace Hall.

The prince listened to He Peng's report with a gloomy face, and a hint of murderous intent appeared on his face.

"Humph, I knew that Old Four would not let this go. He even wanted to sign a petition to impeach me. Dream on!"

"Master He, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

He Peng's face straightened, and he said in a deep voice: "You can send people outside the city to stop the messenger. As long as the impeachment memorial does not reach His Majesty, you will be safe!"

"Makes sense!"

The prince sneered, "Come here, pass the order immediately, send a team to intercept the fourth messenger outside the city, and kill him without mercy if he is found!"
