Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

"Your Highness, wait a minute...something seems to be wrong..." Suddenly, Wang Xuance, who had been following behind His Highness the Prince of Chu in silence, spoke up: "Your Highness, why do I feel that you have deceived even your own people? Did you really let Quan Gaisuwen go just to cause trouble for His Majesty?"

"Xuan Ce, what's wrong?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu stopped when he heard this, then turned around and looked at his good retainer with a smile on his face.

"You are not only going to destroy Goguryeo...you are also planning to use Goguryeo to destroy Silla and Baekje in advance?!" Wang Xuance was once again shocked by his master's vision and plan: "Your Highness, you are really a man of great talent and strategy!"

“Ah~~Xuan Ce…” His Royal Highness the King of Chu always accepted the compliments from his retainers: “Just keep it in your mind, don’t say it out loud, keep a low profile… keep a low profile…”

"But Your Highness, Quan Gaisuwen is not so stupid that he can't even see through your intentions, right? Aren't you worried that things might go against your wishes?" After understanding the true intentions of His Highness the King of Chu, Yuan Tiangang gave his own different opinion: "What if he uses this to unite Silla and Baekje..."

"He won't tell you." Zhang Zhenxuan is a rare Taoist genius in a century. His talents in other aspects are undoubtedly amazing. For example, at this moment, he has seen the key to the problem: "The first thing Quan Gaisuwen should do after returning to the country is to regain Gao Jianwu's trust, the second is to consolidate the power in his hands, and the third is to prepare for the future when the Tang army invades.

And each of these three things would require a price to be paid for by Silla and Baekje.

If Quan Gaisuwen wanted Gao Jianwu to trust him, he had to make real achievements. Leading the army to conquer Silla and Baekje was the best achievement. At the same time, it could also clear the doubts about himself - after all, if he really defected to the Tang Dynasty, then even if he had a hundred courage, he probably wouldn't dare to take action against Silla, after all, the Queen of Silla often regarded herself as His Majesty's concubine.

Moreover, if Quan Gaisuwen wants to regain power legitimately, he must do some big things that others dare to think about but not do.

For example, he led the army to attack Silla and Baekje.

In fact, Quan Gaisuwen had no choice - he could only be willing to be used by Gao Jianwu and those ministers, so that he could gain the strength to overthrow them. "

"That's right," Wang Xuance saw Zhang Zhenxuan's analysis was so clear, and he immediately affirmed his idea: "More importantly, if Goguryeo really intends to engage in a protracted war with the Tang Dynasty in the future, then it must take advantage of the two years when our Tang Dynasty is recuperating to destroy Silla and Baekje with lightning speed and use the national strength of these two countries for its own benefit. Otherwise, once the two sides confront each other in the future, if Silla and Baekje see that Goguryeo is declining, they will do something unjust and choose to stab Goguryeo in the back, then things will become more troublesome."

“So,” His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw that his retainers had expressed their views on the matter, so he took over the conversation in due time: “Even if Quan Gaisuwen knew that this was a trap set by me, he would not hesitate to fall into it in order to avenge me and Gao Jianwu. People like him are not short of confidence. He believes that he will eventually break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly, but in fact... it is all just a false fantasy.

But I need him to have this fantasy now.

In fact, I am now eagerly hoping that his strategic vision can be longer-term - after he conquers Silla and Baekje, he might as well turn his attention overseas. That island country can actually be used as a retreat for Goguryeo, right? "It was not until this moment that His Royal Highness the King of Chu really showed his true intentions.

"Your Highness, are you really planning to 'restore the Sui Dynasty to glory?!'" At this time, even Wang Xuance did not expect that His Highness the King of Chu had actually begun to plot against Japan.

"It's better to let them kill each other than to do it ourselves. In the end, we will be the ones who benefit." His Royal Highness the King of Chu laughed and said, "It's just that Xuan Ce, if it were me, you still need more experience. Well, you might as well learn from me. When you have nothing to do, you can read more about the Art of War. It's actually very useful. You must know that the Art of War and the Art of Political Scheme are actually similar. The key points are to make judgments in advance and know how to adapt. Well... But don't be discouraged - geniuses like me are rare in this world."

"I understand." Wang Xuance thought seriously for a moment and then said solemnly, "I will definitely live up to your expectations. I will study the art of war well in the future!"

"Yes!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu was very satisfied with Wang Xuance's attitude: "I look forward to the day when you will master the art of war. Remember to consult Master Yu more often when you have nothing to do. He will give me this honor."

"Your Highness, you are not modest at all..." Seeing His Highness the King of Chu so arrogant, Yuan Tiangang on the side could not stand it any longer: "Besides, when have you ever had the concept of 'face' in front of Lord Yu..."

"Gangzi, are you looking for trouble?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu felt that Yuan Tiangang, this idiot retainer, was... really "often presumptuous without knowing it", and really thought that he, the head of the family, had a good temper: "You always offend me whenever you have something to do, what's the matter, are you an undercover sent by my father?"

"Your Highness..." Yuan Tiangang felt that he was really wronged: "How can I be an undercover agent... Besides, where in the world is there an undercover agent like me who is so costly and loyal to you?"

"From the beginning to now, I only think that you are a talent in terms of eloquence. As for the rest..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu thought for a while, and then gave a heartbreaking conclusion: "I really don't see it..."

"Your Highness... you are going too far..." Yuan Tiangang could not accept being looked down upon by the Patriarch: "No matter how incompetent I am... I am better than... Yuwen Qing, right?"

"You too..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu subconsciously wanted to curse back, but after thinking for a moment, he said to Zhang Zhenxuan beside him, "Will it be too hurtful for me to say that?"

"Master Yuan has been around for many years, it shouldn't be the case." Zhang Zhenxuan, who was the supporting actor, smiled and made a beautiful assist.

"Your Highness, you don't need to say anything..." Yuan Tiangang raised his head slightly at this moment, looking at the blue sky, and said in a sad tone: "I didn't expect... that after all these years of hard work, what I got in return is..."

"Hey, hey, hey, the show is over." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu kicked Yuan Tiangang before he could continue. "Fuck you, among all my retainers, you are the only one who can't handle troubles for me, and instead causes troubles for me. How dare you say this to me?"
