Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Chapter 156 Fighting for Hegemony in Troubled Times Guo Shengtong (37)

Yeshe.

"What, Brother Deng, have you defected to Prince Ding?"

Liu Xiu was shocked when he saw his former friend talking about his current situation calmly.

Deng Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Brother Liu's expression is as I expected, he is very surprised."

Liu Xiu waved his hand and said with some disbelief: "Brother Deng, you are such a talented person, how could you join Prince Ding?"

Deng Yu smiled calmly: "Prince Ding is not bad either."

"Besides, it is a good challenge to assist the female King Ding in taking that position."

"None of the princes from all over the world have a clear master in my heart. On the contrary, King Ding is a man who loves his people like a son..."

"I came all the way to Gaocheng and found that the people in the place governed by Prince Ding's Mansion are living a pretty good life."

"Now that all the princes in the world are thinking about fighting for hegemony, the only one who can appease the people and care about the common people is King Ding."

"Based on this alone, Prince Ding deserves to be assisted by me, Deng Yu."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu was stunned, and then sighed: "Brother Deng is right. Although Prince Ding is a woman, he is also good at civil and martial arts."

"If she were a man, she might be able to be the master of the world in the future, but that's not certain."

Deng Yu smiled and shook his head: "Those who win the hearts of the people win the world. Judging from the current situation, Prince Ding is a daughter, and he may not be unable to sit in that position in the future."

As he spoke, Deng Yu looked out the window of the guest room at the busy market and said with a faint smile:

"In today's world, there are not many places with such fireworks. Not long after King Ding ruled Gaocheng, he was able to turn Gaocheng into the prosperous city it is today. It is indeed a Mingzhu."

Hearing Deng Yu's words, Liu Xiu couldn't help but think of Wancheng under Liu Xuan's rule, which was now in a state of chaos due to political strife...

Liu Xuan is a straw bag, but because he is a straw bag, Green Forest Army and Ping Lin Army would rather choose him than his brother, causing his brother to die tragically...

Seeing that Liu Xiu was in a bad mood, Deng Yu sighed and said, "Brother Liu, why don't you stay? Now there is no need for you to go back to Liu Xuan's place."

"After all, he is very afraid of you. If you go back, you don't know what dangerous things he will send you to do."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Brother Deng, I can't help myself now. My wife is still in Wancheng. If I stay, how can my wife be treated well?"

Deng Yu shook his head when he heard this and sighed, "Brother Liu, if you don't stay and go to Wancheng, you will be killed by Liu Xuan sooner or later."

"Liu Xuan himself is small-minded. Your military achievements in Kunyang are so great that he can't keep you here."

"Furthermore, if you want to avenge your brother, for this reason, you can only vote for Mingzhu."

"Otherwise, if you kill Liu Xuan in the future, it will be regicide, and your reputation will be infamy for thousands of years. But if you surrender to King Ding, you can lead your troops to kill Liu Xuan in the future..."

Liu Xiu was a little moved by what Deng Yu said. All he thinks about now is to avenge his brother, but he also understands that Liu Xuan is guarding him now and relying on his current strength, he may not be able to kill Liu Xuan. possible.

If she takes refuge with King Ding, and with the more than 300,000 horses in King Ding's hands, she will definitely have a war with Wang Xuan's forces in the future. At that time, she will ask for orders to lead troops to kill Liu Xuan...

Thinking of this, Liu Xiu's eyes flashed with emotion. It is undeniable that joining King Ding is indeed a good choice, but his wife is still in Wancheng...

Seemingly sensing Liu Xiu's hesitation, Deng Yu suggested, "If Brother Liu is so determined, why not meet with King Ding and ask her to bring your wife to Gaocheng, so that you can be reunited as husband and wife, and you can also escape from Liu Xuan's family." Take control.”

Liu Xiu felt a little complicated for a while. After thinking for a while, he said with some tangle, "Brother Deng, let me think about this for a few more days."

Hearing this, Deng Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a positive tone: "Liu Xuan asked you to come this time. Did he also assign you other tasks?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiu did not deny it. He nodded with a wry smile and said, "Brother Deng, you and I have been friends for many years, and I won't hide anything from you."

"In addition to congratulating King Ding on his election as king, I came here this time to have another mission, which is to ask for Liu Xuan's hand in marrying King Ding."

"what?"

When Deng Yu heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice much louder, no longer as calm as before.

"Why is he so thick-skinned? How old is he now, and how old is King Ding now? How could he say this? I'm not afraid that King Ding will kill you in a fit of anger..."

Having said this, Deng Yu paused slightly and looked at Liu Xiu with a little pity in his eyes.

Liu Xiu sighed bitterly: "That's what Brother Deng thinks. He wants to kill me with the help of King Ding."

"The reason why I stay in Guocheng now is because I haven't told King Ding the reason for my trip."

"Twenty percent of the envoys I brought were sent by Liu Xuan. If I don't propose marriage to King Ding, I'm afraid Liu Xuan will send someone to raise an army to investigate the crime before I return to Wancheng."

Hearing this, Deng Yu was speechless, "Liu Xuan is good at scheming. King Ding is now at the peak of his power. As long as she doesn't think about it, she will not agree to marry Liu Xuan. Not only will she not marry, she will become angry and kill you to establish her power." ."

"It's such a good trick to kill someone with a borrowed sword. I didn't expect Liu Xuan to have such a brain. It seems that after being the emperor for a long time, even if the strategy of governing the country is not very good, his scheming has improved."

Liu Xiu smiled bitterly, "Who knows whether this plan was his idea or someone else's? In the Gengshi Dynasty, there are many people who can't stand me..."

Hearing what Liu Xiu said, Deng Yu couldn't help but feel sad for him. Liu Xiu and his brother Liu Yan started the uprising in their hometown, and went through five passes and killed six generals. Unexpectedly, both brothers were plotted by Liu Xuan in the end.

After all, they were friends for many years. Deng Yu sighed and suggested:

"Now that Liu Xuan's plan has been made clear, why should you linger on the Gengshi court? It would be wise to get rid of Liu Xuan as soon as possible and find opportunities to avenge your brother in the future."

Liu Xiu nodded, "Thank you Brother Deng for being so sincere to me. Brother Deng's kindness today will be unforgettable to Liu Xiu."

Deng Yu sighed, "You and I met at Chang'an Imperial College. We are classmates and have been friends for many years. How can I not worry about you when I hear what happened to you?"

Liu Xiu sighed slightly, "Brother Deng, I will consider your proposal carefully."

Deng Yu nodded when he heard this, and said with a clear smile: "Okay, Brother Liu, if you encounter any difficulties? Come to the Prime Minister's Mansion in the south of the city to find me."

Hearing this, Liu Xiu nodded first, and after reacting, he said in disbelief: "Brother Deng, you are now... the prime minister?"

Liu Xiu felt that there was something wrong with his words, so he shook his head in a funny way and said, "With Brother Deng's talent, if he doesn't become prime minister, wouldn't he be undermining his talent? Unexpectedly, Prince Ding is actually a meritocracy."

Deng Yu was also a little sad when he heard this, "I didn't expect that King Ding would dare to appoint me as prime minister just after I came to Gaocheng. However, it can also be seen from this that King Ding's mind is not comparable to that of ordinary people."
