Hearing this, the new king was not comforted much. He still said worriedly: "But, the old king's temperament, I'm afraid he won't be willing to be honored..."

Generally speaking, to honor the former king, at least the former king must be old, right?
The previous king was about the same age as him!
How could a young and strong king be willing to be an honored nobleman?

It must be more enjoyable to be a king than to be a nobleman!

The new king's father-in-law said: "This requires you to unite with other people to convince the former king. After all, this matter is a coincidence, and it is destined by heaven."

On the word "God", the minister emphasized a little.

The new king understands in seconds, this is to let him give some benefits to all the masters in Tubo, so that all sects in Tubo will stand by him?

This is not impossible. His current requirements are very low. He only needs to be able to settle the matter of the former king. As long as he can continue to sit on the throne as the great king, he can give up a lot of rights.

Anyway, even if he gave up some of his rights, it would not be too bad for him. He is still a king, much better than the nobleman who had to shrink his neck to be a man in the past!

"You're right, it's time for this king to invite masters into the palace to give lectures. I'll trouble you to make a list of which masters should be invited, and then invite people according to the list!" the new king said directly.

His attitude of listening to people's advice made his father-in-law very satisfied.

His father-in-law had several daughters who were married to different nobles.

Why, as a father-in-law, the most supportive new king is the current new king, isn't it because this son-in-law is enough to "listen to persuasion"?
For the nobles, it is a good thing for such a son-in-law to become a king!
"Your Majesty, don't worry, this matter is on the subject's shoulders!"

The palace had a good chat, but the two ministers who had been named by the "previous kings" of Tubo gathered together at this moment, sitting opposite each other, with food and drinks placed in front of them, but neither of them had any intention of eating or drinking.

Although the letter hadn't reached them yet, since they knew that the king was not dead and was forced to become the "previous king", this mess gave them both a headache.

There are two of them among the people who support the new king. If the former king becomes the king again, can this matter be regarded as just a misunderstanding?
Can the two of them continue to stay in the power center of the king's capital as the king's confidants?

If welcoming back the original king would bring them pain, the two of them might betray the trust of the king and completely fall for the new king.

Thinking about his younger brother who was beside the former king, Da Chi said in some pain: "Ru Kun, tell me, if the king comes back, will it be blamed that we didn't investigate clearly before, and rushed to welcome the new king?"

Ru Kun sighed: "I'm afraid your majesty will really blame the two of us!"

"Then what should I do? My loyalty to the king can be learned from the sun and the moon! At that time, I really can't blame us. It was the cunning people of Youzhou who deliberately blocked the news and let us fall into the trap! Now the king has reached a peace negotiation with Youzhou. , I'm coming back, next, I'm afraid we'll have to make a statement. Rukun, are you still willing to return to the king's side?"

Da Chi's words were straightforward enough.

Ru Kun wiped his face, then drank the wine in front of him, even coughed a few times, and said: "If the king is willing to recognize me, I will go back! If the king is not willing to recognize me..."

He didn't say what happened next, but Da Chi already understood.

He also picked up the wine in front of him and drank it, then put the wine bowl back on the table heavily, and said, "Me too!"

"Master, master!" At this moment, Dachi's butler ran in from outside.

"In a panic, what happened?" Da Chi turned to look at the housekeeper and asked.

The steward hurriedly replied: "Master, master, someone sent you a letter, it is, it is a letter from your majesty!"

king?

At this moment, another person came outside, this time it was Ru Kun's housekeeper.

Rukun came to Dachi's house as a guest today, and his housekeeper came running suddenly, which made Rukun realize that something happened, and it has something to do with him!

Because I just heard what Dachi's butler said to Dachi, after his butler ran in, Ru Kun asked directly: "Why, the king also sent me a letter?"

"Yes Yes!"

Rukun's butler also nodded, and then handed over a letter.

They both took the letter and opened it to read.

Then it was discovered that this was written by the former king, telling them that the cavalry sent to pick them up to meet the former king was approaching, and this letter was written later, just to remind them.

He also said that if they still recognized him as the great king, they would go; if they didn’t, they didn’t have to go.

These words are really embarrassing.

Even though the king said this, he still sent letters to the two of them respectively. How dare they not go?

Even if they didn't want to go before, they didn't dare to send such a threatening letter.

The personalities of these two people were also well handled by the King of Tubo.

Neither of them are very decisive people, a little "soft".

The king of Tubo has a lot of prestige in their place, and it is definitely not something that the new king can erase this subconscious fear as soon as he takes office.

So let the two of them go to meet the king of Tubo, these two must go.

As long as the two of them go, it is equivalent to standing on the side of the Tubo king.

And as long as the king of Tubo didn't punish these two people and still treated them with the same attitude as before, other old ministers who waited and watched would also feel relieved.

As for what the new king thinks and will do, that is another matter.

Although the king of Tubo has a violent personality, he is not a fool.

In the case that he does not have the absolute upper hand, he can still bow his head.

Dachi and Rukun really did what the king of Tubo had expected. After hesitating for a while, he chose to leave the capital and go directly to meet the king and the returning army!
As for the knights sent to meet them, they planned to meet them halfway and turn back together.

Now that we have already decided to meet the king, it is better to set off earlier.

It took a day for the two of them to sneak out of the capital, and the new king found out about it, and was so angry that he kicked down the person who reported to him.

"Trash! Let you stare at the prime minister and the ministers, is that how you stare? You have been away for a day, and you came to report to the king?"

The person who was kicked over hurriedly kowtowed to admit his mistake.

How did they know that in the eyes of the public, the Minister of State Council, who was completely bound to the new king, could sneak away!

What is this picture?

Picture what?If the new king knew that his subordinate was so confused, he would definitely sneer. Of course, the two of them were gambling!
"They are betting that the former king can beat this king! That's why they left secretly. They would rather take the risk of being blamed by the former king than meet the former king! How ridiculous!"
