One Hundred Routes of Counterattack

In the study room, the atmosphere can be described as gloomy. Several middle-aged scholars either looked at each other in blank dismay, or bowed their heads in thought without saying a word, but in the middle of the study room, a young and handsome young man paced back and forth with his brows furrowed.

A leading figure among the scribes twisted his three-inch long beard and sighed: "Your Highness, now that the imperial edict has been issued, the remnants of the former princes in the court have become active again, and they are now in the limelight. We should avoid their edge. You don't have to mess yourself up."

"Avoid his edge, avoid his edge!" the young man said angrily, "I have been avoiding his edge for 20 years! Father only has the crown prince in his heart, even if he made a big mistake, he was recruited back within a few months !"

This anxious and angry young man is the fourth prince of the dynasty.Originally, his form was very good: he endured humiliation for many years, and finally caught the crown prince's handle. The emperor in the palace was ill again, and the eldest prince passed away. Then he took the opportunity to accomplish several major events, which were appreciated by most officials in the DPRK and China.However, first, the father's condition suddenly improved, and his control over the court returned to the past, no, even stronger than before; not to mention that the nails in the palace were cleaned up, and the relationship with the Su family seemed to be clouded. barrier.It happened that the house was leaking and it was raining all night, and the father unexpectedly took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to recall the prince who had been assigned. With the help of the prince's grandfather, who was also the prime minister, the edict was faster than ever. , When they received the news, they were powerless.

In just a few days, the original good form turned around, and all the planning and planning of the previous years seemed to be smashed one by one.Although he was still hidden behind the scenes and never exposed, for a while, the fourth prince felt quite uneasy that his father would see through everything.

Thinking of this, he turned around and said, "Mr. Liu has a good strategy? The previous plan... is now considered useless, and now..." Thinking that his father had been serving for a long time, he was actually able to survive the attack. Like the addiction to cold food powder that thousands of ants devour the heart, he felt shuddering.He couldn't figure out what made his father, who didn't know what Hanshi San was, be able to make up his mind to get rid of it.It is obvious that it is common practice in aristocratic families to quit loosening, but before this, it has never been heard that anyone can quit loosening.

Mr. Liu was the middle-aged scribe at the time, and he could only say helplessly at this moment: "It is up to man to plan, but it is up to Heaven to accomplish things. It is true that the current situation cannot directly fight with the crown prince. Fortunately, His Highness had a good relationship with the crown prince in the past. If we continue to With the crown prince Xu and Wei Snake, and then secretly unite with three or five princes to bring down the prince together."

Even so, Mr. Liu is not sure how much confidence he has.After all, now that the emperor's condition has improved and his body has recovered, all the initiative is in his hands.In fact, he opposed the emperor's addiction to cold food powder at the beginning. After all, it was against the way of a gentleman. In this matter of seizing the heir, conspiracy and conspiracy can be used. It's just that the fourth prince favors those shady ways too much, which is unavoidable.Mr. Liu couldn't help being a little worried, and he was a little worried about his choice to assist the fourth prince.

However, Mr. Liu was thinking hard in this room, but the fourth prince's face turned slightly green when he heard it.

It turned out that before the prince was banished to guard the imperial mausoleum, the fourth prince deliberately went to fight with the prince in order to suppress the princeling party. Complacently, he told all the things he had done in the Jiangnan fraud case.Now that the crown prince has made a comeback, once he heard the news, he felt restless, worrying all day long that the crown prince would tell his father the matter.

Mr. Liu never imagined that the crown prince would be able to do things so terribly when he was full of ambition. Seeing the embarrassment on the face of the fourth prince, he felt a little bit in his heart. It's just that there are so many people talking now, but it's not easy to ask directly.

Seeing that the others had no suggestions, the fourth prince could only hastily ended the meeting, and sighed: "That's the only way to go, and I hope you gentlemen will help me."

Seeing that he was so courteous and virtuous, many scribes were very helpful, and they bowed and said goodbye, leaving only Mr. Liu alone.

"What else is there for Mr. Liu?" the Fourth Prince asked.

Mr. Liu twitched his beard and walked away from everyone. He closed the door of the study and asked in a low voice: "Just now I said that we will reconcile the old relationship with the crown prince. It seems that the crown prince has a look of embarrassment. Could there be something wrong?"

Mentioning this fourth prince is like being stabbed in the foot, but if it is his servants, wives and concubines who say this, he will directly throw his face away.However, he still remembered that the person in front of him was his confidant and confidant, a scribe who was invited by him after visiting the thatched hut three times.

Although the Fourth Prince evaded the important points and downplayed some of the grievances between him and the prince, but Mr. Liu has a wealth of experience. From those few words, he understands that the so-called "slight quarrel" in his words is not just a small quarrel. So simple.His heart was half cold, and he became rampant when he was successful. With such a disposition, is it really the enlightened master he is looking for so hard?

There were a lot of thoughts in his heart, but Mr. Liu couldn't express it. He could only resign after a few words of resignation.

However, Mr. Liu never expected that after he left, the fourth prince was left alone. The fourth prince was alone, thinking wildly, but he did not expect to receive an obscure message from the Sumerian from the palace: "Your love is as cold as water, and my concubine's life is as thin as paper."

All kinds of memories of the past flashed before the eyes of the fourth prince, all of which were the happy and good times when Su Meiren stayed in his boudoir. He looked at the pale pink paper in front of him, and his heart was full of thoughts and worries about Su Meiren. People walk on thin ice in the palace, and their lives are at stake.But today the palace was ordered to be purged by the emperor, managed like an iron bucket, no useful information could be obtained at all, and he couldn't help at all.

Thinking about it, the fourth prince picked up the paper, sniffed the elegant fragrance on it obsessively, looked at the beautiful handwriting, felt pain in his heart, and murmured in a low voice: "Qin girl...why do you doubt my infatuation, don't worry, I In this life, I will definitely live up to Qin Nu's love." His eyes gradually became firm.

It was in the night palace, and there was a blushing and heartbeating movement from inside the room. The red candles were warming the tent, and the man's heavy panting and crooning rang out for a long time.Taking advantage of Tang Gan asking for water, Wang Gonggong entered the room and whispered a few words before leaving.

Tang Gan, who looked like Shining was bathing through the curtain, didn't even move his eyeballs, he only raised his eyebrows slightly, playing with his taste: "The fox's tail is really exposed, hey, you stupid little four, my heart Higher than the sky, but fate is thinner than paper." After a pause, he cut again, "I was a little surprised when I saw the intertwined links before, but my fourth son, who didn't care about him, was so capable. I didn't expect to meet him now. What a setback, so I can't wait to jump out. I still want to force the palace with this little ability, hmph."

"What are you talking about?" After taking a bath, Shining put on an underwear and came out wiping his wet hair. Seeing Tang Gan's sneer, he felt like he was planning some tricks.

Seeing him coming, Tang Gan immediately put away his shrewd and capable appearance, showed a foolish smile, and ran over to do a little squat, grabbed the towel from Shining's hand and wiped it for him.

Seeing this, the prince smiled and stepped back.

Yan Yan was laughing in the room, but in the palace, several families were happy and some were sad. The beauty Su, who was originally in possession of wisdom, was now under house arrest in the palace, and was strictly guarded.She exhausted her last relationship to write a letter and sent it out of the palace to seek help from her lover, but unexpectedly the letter was intercepted, the last nail was seized, and the ambiguous note was written in imitated handwriting.

Now she still doesn't know that her every move is being closely monitored, Tang Qian and others have already known it well, and she is still fully expecting that the fourth prince can rescue her.She wrote sadly in the letter, and she had great confidence that she could impress the fourth prince, even if she entered the fourth prince's mansion, or went away with the fourth prince, it would not be impossible.

She waited anxiously, and the longer the time, the colder her heart became.Finally one day late at night, something seemed to be going wrong in the palace. After a few dull blows outside the house, the door was opened with a creak, and two men dressed as eunuchs came in.

"Your Majesty is a Sumerian?" One of the two men asked in a deep voice.He didn't look like an eunuch when he opened his mouth, his voice was deep and rough, obviously he was pretending to be an eunuch.

Su Clan was overjoyed and said with a trembling voice, "You are..."

"This subordinate was sent by the fourth prince to pick up the empress, and please invite the empress to come with us!"

The worry and fear for more than half a month turned into tears of joy at this moment. The Sumerian nodded in agreement with tears.

He followed the two men in a hurry, but after walking for a long time, he did not see the palace gate.She stopped hesitantly and asked, "Second elder brothers, why does this direction seem to be going to the front hall?"

The two men immediately turned around when they heard the words, and said coldly: "Yes, they are going to the front hall. The fourth prince is waiting for the empress here."

Mrs. Su was startled when she heard the words, and was a little puzzled.Suddenly remembering that the fourth prince had expressed his intention to force the palace in the past, a guess came to his mind, and he said in surprise: "Could it be... Could it be that the movement just now was Shiro..."

"Your Majesty, be careful, the Fourth Prince has been waiting for a long time!" As they spoke, the three of them turned around the last moon gate between the inner and outer palaces, and the front hall was already within easy reach.

On the white jade floor tiles of the front hall, soldiers in armor and the Imperial Forest Army were confronting each other, and their swords were clearly on the verge of breaking out.The fourth prince was talking domineeringly, when he saw Su Shi, his eyes flashed with surprise, and among the counselors behind him, only Mr. Liu followed, his face was gloomy at this moment, as if the situation was over.

"Oh, so you mean, let me write down the letter of succession, and you can still be merciful and send me to the Xishan Palace for the elderly." Tang Qianwei's solemn voice came.He was wearing a robe, as if he had just been disturbed from the bed, even at this moment, he was still holding Shi Ning tightly with one hand, as if he did not want to separate.

The fourth prince shifted his gaze to Tang Qian, his eyes flashed with complacency and pride, the man in front of him was once the greatest and most omnipotent existence in his heart, but now, he forced him into such a panic How happy the situation is!The down-and-out prince, who once never looked at him directly, is about to ascend the throne and enjoy the worship of all people.That scene, just thinking about it, makes people's minds agitated.He has endured humiliation for many years, for the sake of today's glory!

"That's right, father, for the sake of our father-son relationship, I won't hurt you, but now that the overall situation has been settled, those who know the current affairs are heroes, and father will not struggle fearlessly again."

"Even I called you," Tang Gan sneered, "Xiao Si, you have the guts."

On the other side of him stood the prince who had just been called back to Beijing, but after not seeing him for a few months, the prince became more mature and restrained.The prince was originally handsome and handsome, but he was too young and vigorous. Now that he has experienced setbacks and trials, he has added more foundation, and he already has the bearing and demeanor of a king of a country.He frowned and sighed: "Fourth brother, you did it knowing it was impossible, why are you bothering?"

"Shut up!" the fourth prince said angrily, "It's this tone of charity again, Prince, what annoys me the most is your condescending and domineering attitude. Now you are a fish and I am a knife. I'm going to catch him without a fight!"

Tang Gan laughed back angrily: "What a big tone! Cheng Zuo (the prince's name taboo), you step down, your fourth brother is stubborn, and I don't lack such a son."

As he said that, Tang Gan waved his hand, and suddenly the soldiers of the imperial guards hiding in various places appeared and surrounded the army of the fourth prince, and many people in the army of the fourth prince suddenly turned against each other.

But for a moment, the situation reversed.Seeing that the general situation is gone, the fourth prince went mad and said: "You really don't lack sons. But do you have any other choice? The elder brother is dead, and the third and fifth are unable to achieve great success. Passing the throne to them will ruin the foundation sooner or later. Obviously I You can do everything in martial arts and martial arts, but you have never looked at me! Why, father! You would rather have this former prince who was deposed once than consider me. Could it be because this eunuch blew your pillow wind!"

"Shut up!" Tang Gan immediately reprimanded him when he mentioned Shining, and turned his head to look at Shining nervously. , still have the face to talk about others." He turned to the three Sumerians in the shadows who had been frightened by the sudden change of situation, and sneered, "Not to mention anything else, this is a private relationship with the mother and concubine, what should be done for the dirty palace. crime?"

The fourth prince looked at the controlled Sumerian, and said in a miserable voice, "Qin Nu, it was I who killed you..."

Su Qinnv burst into tears, and suddenly turned to Tang Qian who was watching coldly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It was Qinnv who was wrong. Qinnv was obsessed with ghosts for a while, and did something wrong to Your Majesty. But Qinnv and Shiro were just impulsive and in love , It’s just about courtesy, there is no overstepping, please forgive me, Your Majesty..."

The fourth prince was stunned, looking in disbelief at the woman who was kneeling at the foot of his father and pleading, he couldn't believe that this was the person he was thinking of, the woman who made him so fascinated that he would risk his shame to force the palace.
