Lord of Rebirth

Chapter 87 Secret Letter

Upon learning of this, Sun Moyao immediately sent two groups of people, one to the Bashu area to inquire about news, and the other to the capital.

With such a big thing happening, it is impossible for the emperor, and even the entire court, to sit idly by and ignore it, right? !

Soon, the news came from the land of Bashu.

The common people didn't know what the princes were planning to do, and even the local officials didn't know what happened, but there was an obvious move of troops.In addition, it is heard that the four kings have gathered in Jincheng where King Han Jia is located, obviously there is a conspiracy.

Even so, the local people and officials didn't seem to feel anything, as if the four kings often gather together.

In addition, it was the four princes of the Bashu fiefdom who could confirm this matter, announcing that the people in the fiefdoms they belonged to would be exempted from taxation for more than a year.

It was precisely because of this incident that Fufeng King confirmed the actions of the four kings.

However, the common people didn't doubt it at all. They even jumped for joy, thinking that the four kings suddenly realized their conscience and wanted to treat the common people kindly!

Come to think of it, the emperor is dying of illness in the capital, but the four kings are making small moves in Bashu. This is the standard way to take advantage of your illness and kill you!

Hearing this news, Sun Moyao thought helplessly, if the court didn't respond, I'm afraid other princes would follow suit.

Not long after, news also came from the court.

Since the emperor is still ill, the prince is now in charge of the government.

But the prince has not yet succeeded to the throne, so he can only take power in the name of the prince, and has no military power in his hands.Judging from the inquiring news, the prince seems to want to send troops to attack the four kings, but most officials in the court, headed by the prime minister, hope that the prince will wait and see what happens, and it will not be too late to send troops after he ascends the throne and becomes the empress.

Sun Moyao was very surprised by the court's attitude, but after thinking about it carefully, he was not surprised.

Now it is only the crown prince who is against it. If the emperor had objected, he would have ordered to send troops long ago. How could it be the crown prince who came out to speak out about this matter?

What is the current situation in Beijing?

At this moment, Sun Moyao suddenly received two confidential letters.

One is from King Han Jia who is currently on the cusp of the storm, and the other is from the crown prince in the capital.

King Hanjia's letter was very direct, and he hoped that King Fufeng would not do anything and not care about their affairs in Bashu.

Sun Moyao looked at it amused, as if he felt that there was something dirty on the letter, he threw it aside, and went to read the letter from the prince.

Sun Moyao didn't have a good impression of the prince, so he opened his letter full of disgust.

In the letter, the prince said that he hoped that King Fufeng could help him and lead his troops to the land of Bashu to arrest the four princes who wanted to split the country, and also stop the courtiers who opposed him.

It was a coincidence that the two secret letters came, and Sun Moyao didn't know what to do for a while.

Sun Moyao did not agree with the actions of the four kings in his heart, but if he agreed to follow the prince, he still had to weigh it carefully.

The four kings of Bashu have been canonized for a long time, their foundations in their respective fiefdoms have already been deeply rooted, and the foundation of the people is also very strong.And since they decided to do this kind of thing, they naturally planned it long ago. Sun Moyao estimated that the strength of the Four Kings' men might exceed [-].

Sun Moyao had a maximum of [-] troops on hand, and he couldn't overwhelm them all.The crown prince has power in the capital but has no soldiers. Even if he can borrow troops from General Wei in the future, it may only be [-].

If there are other princes to help out, there is no need to worry about it.

But the news that Lu Jufeng inquired was that none of the princes responded to the prince's request.

Thinking about it, even half of the ministers in the court did not support the prince, and the prince was fighting alone this time.

Sun Moyao invited Lu Jufeng and Zhang Xi, and put the two sealed letters on the table.

Ask: "What should I do now?"

Zhang Xi first said, "It's better to wait and see how it turns out. Although the behavior of the four kings of Bashu is shameless, it seems that they haven't done more things that endanger the country. It's better to wait until the crown prince succeeds, and then see what he does next." It's not too late to think about it."

Lu Jufeng cupped his hands and said: "If you wait until the crown prince succeeds, it may be too late."

Zhang Xi was surprised, "Why did Lord Lu say such a thing?"

Lu Jufeng said: "The principle of this matter is that the four kings are wrong. If the prince wants to crusade against them, he only needs to ascend the heights, but now he is acting in secret, just to put the royal family's face first. If the princes do not respond, the common people I don't know about this, but we can still save each other's face. But do you think the prince will keep this matter in mind?"

Zhang Xi then said, "Just remember it, so what?"

Lu Jufeng shook his head with a smile, "Since the crown prince already has the intention of molesting the lords, how can he not deal with the lords when he becomes emperor in the future?"

After Zhang Xi listened, he laughed, "What? After the crown prince ascends the throne, is he still planning to abolish other princes? Like a prince who hasn't done anything, does the prince dare to move?"

But Lu Jufeng said: "When you are a prince, you can move if you have a reason. When you become an emperor, why do you care if you have a reason?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Xi and Sun Moyao fell silent.

But Zhang Xi still refused to give in, "I still think the risk is too great. If the prince succeeds in sending troops in the future, the prince just needs to show his support. If he raises troops to support the prince now, but the crusade fails in the end, the prince will be safe and sound when he returns to the capital." Be his emperor, but what about the lord? Openly being hostile to other lords, wouldn't that give others a reason to beat you?"

Regarding this, Lu Jufeng couldn't say that he could guarantee success, so he could only smile speechlessly.

The two couldn't stop arguing, and finally looked at the prince.

Sun Moyao bowed his head deeply, and murmured: "If Shen Xi is here, what advice will he give me?"

Lu Jufeng heard what the prince said, and said in a low voice: "If it is Mr. Shen, he will definitely suggest that the prince agree to the prince's proposal."

Zhang Xi immediately said, "Lord Lu, Zifei Shen, how can he speak for him?"

"Master Zhang is right, I was the one who made a slip of the tongue just now."

Seeing the tension between Zhang Xi and Lu Jufeng, Sun Moyao interrupted them and said, "Forget it, don't think about it today, and don't hurt brothers because of this kind of thing."

The two hand over each other, but they were a little dazed.

Zhang Xi said, "Why do you want to hurt your peace?"

Lu Jufeng also laughed, "Yeah? It's just a difference of opinion."

Sun Moyao was stunned for a moment, but he was still overthinking, so he laughed, "Forget it, let it be!"

Unable to get an answer, the prince waved his hand and said to go for a walk to get some air.

And Lu Jufeng and Zhang Xi followed behind, one also said to take a breath, and the other said to go back to the house to sleep.

The three walked along the corridor to the front hall, each with their own concerns.

Not long after they walked, Sun Moyao saw a man in a crimson robe trotting towards them in a hurry.

Who can this person be?

Taking a closer look, it was Shen Xi.

At first, Sun Moyao thought that he was thinking day and night, and his eyes were blurred, but when he saw clearly that it was Shen Xi, he immediately went up to meet him.

"Shen Xi! I'm here!" Sun Moyao waved his hands so that Shen Xi could see him.

Who knew that Shen Xi would come back so soon, Sun Moyao thought that he would have to wait a while before Shen Xi came back!

As soon as Shen Xi saw him, he turned over from the flower bed and stepped over the bench. It was Sun Moyao who stretched out his hand to help him over. When he saw Lu Jufeng and Zhang Xi behind the prince, the anxious expression on his face became even stronger. , he said: "Haven't you heard?"

"Ok?"

"King Han Jia!" After speaking, seeing the relieved expressions of the other three, Shen Xi said: "Then why are you still so calm?! Where is the emperor? What about the court? What do they mean now?!"

Sun Moyao pulled Shen Xi to his side, thinking that he hadn't seen each other for a while, and he still wanted to have a good time with Shen Xi.

"Hmm..." Sun Moyao leaned into Shen Xi's ear and whispered, "The crown prince sent a secret letter, hoping that I can send troops to help him conquer the four kings of Bashu. I'm afraid he also wrote letters to other princes, but Jufeng went to inquire about it." I checked the news, but no prince responded..."

Shen Xi grabbed Sun Moyao's collar and said, "Then you won't respond, my lord?"

Zhang Xi stretched his neck, and asked with a puzzled expression, "What does Mr. Shen mean?"

"Could it be that you also let the prince not respond to the prince's intention?" Shen Xi looked at them strangely, especially Lu Jufeng.

But Lu Jufeng smiled and shook his head, "I haven't."

Zhang Xi said: "So Master Shen and Master Lu are the same?"

Shen Xi let go of his hands, and was about to speak, but was grabbed by Sun Moyao.

The prince smiled, but said: "It's not convenient to talk here, you come with me."

Following the prince unexpectedly came to Shen Xi's Mingshuang residence. Sun Moyao closed the door and said to them: "If you have anything to say, let me explain it clearly here."

Shen Xi cupped his hands, "My lord, you must agree to the prince regarding the matter of the four kings of Bashu. Even if you only bring five thousand soldiers, you can't turn a blind eye."

Zhang Xi opposed it, "This! It's really an unreasonable request!"

The sword was tense just now, and it came back all of a sudden.
