"Brother Situ, please stop saying a few words." A young man in a scholar's shirt said, "Even if our king wants to compete for the throne, he must be upright and aboveboard. Now this is the best opportunity."

"That's right." Another staff member also agreed, "In today's situation, who doesn't know that His Majesty relies heavily on our King? As long as the King wins this time, it will be a great achievement!"

"Yes, with such a great contribution, even if His Majesty does not pass on the throne, it will be difficult for everyone to stop talking..."

"Yes, civil and military officials are not fools. Who among the other princes can take the lead?"

"That's right, Brother Situ, you are just too cautious. As long as our king accomplishes great feats, then the world will be united and all the people will want it..."

"I would like to congratulate the king in advance."

"I also congratulate the king..."

"Hahaha." Guo Xiaogang burst into laughter. The words of these aides were very useful to him, so he said, "The words of these gentlemen are exactly what I think in my heart. We must fight for it, and we must fight for it openly!"

As he spoke, Guo Xiaogang waved his sleeves and said, "When the job is done, I will definitely reward you generously!"

"Your Majesty, no, absolutely no..." Situ Yi was shocked, but still tried to dissuade him, "Things are definitely not that simple. Your Majesty, you should be careful with your performance today..."

"Situ Yi——." Guo Xiaogang frowned and said, "Are you done? As long as I have made great achievements this time, no one can take away this throne. If you keep talking, be careful that I will turn against you and be ruthless!"

The rest of the staff laughed secretly.

On weekdays, the king relies most heavily on Situ Yi.

But today, they felt extremely sour.

Situ Yi is not favored, so they have a chance to be favored?

"Yes, I shouldn't talk nonsense."

Situ Yi lowered his head, feeling depressed.

Rotten wood cannot be carved!

This idea came to his mind now.

Since King Qin has made up his mind, no matter how hard he tries to persuade him, it will be of no use.

Moreover, his intuition told him that Emperor Feng Jing would most likely use all the good bows and hide them in the flying birds, while the rabbits would die and the dogs would be cooked.

The struggle for imperial power has always been fought with one's head in mind.

Miss your chance today.

It is impossible for King Qin to win the throne.

That's all...

After I return to Hebei Province, I'd better resign and go into seclusion and live a pastoral life.

Don't risk your wealth and life when the time comes.

Situ Yi already had thoughts of quitting.

When he assisted the King of Qin, he also wanted to help the King of Qin achieve hegemony.

But King Qin had now gone down the wrong path, and he felt that there was no need to assist him.

Some literati are like this.

Very proud.

Taking the initiative to retire does not mean that he is disloyal, it just means that he no longer wants to do it.

the other side.

Royal study room.

The lights are still bright.

"Yu Wenyuan Zhen, you immediately send troops to set up defenses. The safety of the rest of the place is left to you." Emperor Feng Jing continued to sit and make arrangements, and sent out the Great Feng Army God Yuwen Yuan Zhen.

Except for the entrance to Hebei Road.

There are still vast plains that need to be garrisoned.

There must be no problems in Shuntian Mansion.

Otherwise, when the time comes, people will be distracted and Emperor Fengjing will not be able to afford the gamble.

"The general will obey the order!"

After Yuwen Yuanzhen accepted the order, he glanced at Guo Tianyi and then retreated.

These defense routes were proposed by Guo Tianyi.

Yuwen Yuanzhen didn’t say much.

Guo Tianyi is a military genius and has thought very carefully.

"Father," Guo Tianyi continued, "I have discussed with General Yuwen before that if we want to defeat the enemy head-on, we need to have a capable general from the Shanxi Taoist sect to guard it. In this way, we can suppress the northwest princes and make them unable to do so.

Joining forces with the King of Jin, and at the same time looking at the capital from a distance, forming a tense situation..."

"Your Highness, you are a great talent!" Yan Xiliang's old eyes burst out with light, and he looked at Emperor Fengjing and said, "Your Majesty, what your Highness said has not been taken into consideration by the ministers. It is also a top priority to send people to guard Shanxi Road, otherwise it will always be a hidden danger.

.”

"Your Highness is wise!" Taiwei Wang Yuan also took the opportunity to flatter Guo Tianyi.

Today, the most uneasy person is Wang Yuan.

He knew that the rebellion of the princes was directly related to his tough move to cut down the feudal vassal.

The better Guo Tianyi arranges it, the safer it will be for him.

If something goes wrong in the capital.

I'm afraid His Majesty will be the first to take action on him when the time comes.

In fact, according to official history, after the funeral of Emperor Jing, the princes began to rebel, and Wang Yuan was executed.

It was all caused by his strong will to cut down the feudal vassal. Naturally, he had to be beheaded to give an explanation to all the princes in the world.

"Your Highness is wise!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

"..."

The other officials also started to flatter him.

"Okay!" Emperor Fengjing immediately agreed, "My dear friends, who is willing to guard Shanxi Road?"

This task sounds easy but is also very arduous.

It is necessary not only to guard against the princes in the northwest, but also to defend the capital.

As soon as Emperor Feng Jing finished speaking, Yan Xiliang immediately said, "Your Majesty, I believe that General Wang Zhene is definitely qualified for the job!"

Wang Zhene is Guo Tianyi's uncle.

At the same time, he also has a relatively good relationship with Yan Xiliang.

Therefore, Yan Xiliang should respect Wang Zhene.

Some time ago, due to various political struggles, Yan Xiliang's lineage was severely suppressed by Wang Yuan's lineage.

Therefore, Yan Xiliang also hopes to take this opportunity to recommend Wang Zhene to perform meritorious services.

In this way, he can improve his relationship with Guo Tianyi and strengthen his own faction.

However, Emperor Feng Jing obviously had other plans for Wang Zhene and did not directly nod.

"Your Majesty, I feel that there is a more suitable candidate to guard Shanxi Road." Naturally Wang Yuan was not willing to be outdone and stood up and looked at Emperor Fengjing.

"Who are you going to recommend, Aiqing?"

Emperor Fengjing glanced at Wang Yuan and said calmly.

"Your Majesty," Wang Yuan said respectfully, "I feel that your Highness, the King of Han, is both civil and military and has been trained in the military for a long time, so he is qualified to take on this important task!"

"Your Majesty, I second the proposal!"

"Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Han has obtained the true biography of General Yuwen. His Highness the King of Han has learned all the five volumes of the Art of War written by General Yuwen. There is absolutely no problem."

"I second the proposal. His Highness the King of Han once said that the prince guards the gates of the country. I highly believe that the prince is capable of both civil and military affairs. This important post belongs to His Highness the King of Han."

"I second my opinion, His Highness the King of Han's action will definitely calm people's hearts, and he can represent the emperor and bring the world back to its heart."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal..."

"..."

People from Wang Yuan's lineage came forward to recommend Guo Tianyi.

This will make Guo Tianyi unstoppable.

I do know a bit about the art of war.
