"Your Majesty, please calm down. The thieves have caused chaos in the capital, and the prince has been kidnapped. All the ministers are guilty of death, but the most important thing right now is to find a way to rescue the prince safely." Zhang Kaidi took the lead and then tried to dig in Ji Wuye.
Damn it, "General Ji has always been responsible for the defense of the capital, and I think he is the only one responsible for rescuing the prince."
When Han Wangan heard Kaifangdi's words, he also knew that now was not the time to get angry. He suppressed his anger and looked at Ji Wuye.
He felt that Zhang Zhang was right. The person in charge of thousands of guards in the capital was Ji Wuye. If he was not responsible for this matter, who would be?
"What does General Ji think?"
Ji Wuye must first excuse himself in a few words, "It is true that I am responsible for the defense of the capital, but I have been busy with the safety of Qin's envoys in the past two days, and a momentary oversight caused the prince's death."
If you are robbed, I should die."
"I have no time to care whether you are guilty or not. What is important is the rescue of the prince. What do you say?" Han Wangan waved his hand impatiently and asked with a wrinkled face.
"It is naturally our duty to rescue the prince, but we, the ministers, come from a battlefield and are novices at rescuing people, so..."
Seeing Ji Wuye's evasion, Han Wangan immediately became angry again, and when his face changed, he was about to scold him. Fortunately, Ji Wuye spoke first and gave another suggestion, pulling others into the trap to support him:
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. Although I am not suitable to rescue the prince, there is a person who is very suitable."
Hearing what Ji Wuye had to say, Han Wangan managed to calm down and asked coldly:
"Oh, who is it?"
"Ninth Young Master Han Fei."
"As a Sikou, the security of the capital is his responsibility. And as far as I know, the person who kidnapped the prince this time was the remnant of the Baiyue Rebellion Party in the past. The Ninth Young Master knew a lot about them from previous investigations. How appropriate.
But it’s too late.”
After hearing Ji Wuye's blind analysis, Han Wangan felt that it made sense, but he still asked hesitantly:
"Lao Jiu... That's fine, but after all, he is young and his time as an official is too short. I am afraid that he will make some omissions..."
Ji Wuye rolled his eyes and pulled down another threat:
"Your Majesty has thought carefully, so I think it would be better to ask the Fourth Young Master Han Yu to assist you. This will be more comprehensive."
"Furthermore, the two brothers, the Fourth Young Master and the Ninth Young Master, worked together to rescue the eldest brother, the Prince, which is a good story."
Although Ji Wuye always makes mistakes, once he stands in front of Han Wangan, he can always come up with some good excuses.
"Let the Fourth Brother help me... General Ji is right." At this moment, Han Wangan was obviously moved.
The fourth son Han Yu is different from the ninth son Han Fei. He is the son that Wang An of Han prefers. He is not inferior to the prince at all, but he chose to make his eldest son the prince in line with the patriarchal etiquette.
Moreover, Han Yu has always been a virtuous person in both the government and the public. He knows how to advance and retreat, observes etiquette, acts steadily, and has no leaks. In the court, he also helped King Han calm down a lot of worries.
"Zhang Xiangguo, what do you think of General Ji's suggestion?"
After thinking about it for a while, he bowed his hands and said:
"I think so!"
Kaifeng didn't want anything to happen to the prince that would destabilize the court, and right now, the only people in the court who wanted the prince to die the most were the other princes.
Among them, the Fourth Young Master and the Ninth Young Master are the two most outstanding among the remaining young masters. Not only are they famous and capable, but they are also legitimate sons. Once the prince dies, both of them are expected to ascend to the throne.
As a veteran who has been immersed in officialdom for decades, I openly support Ji Wuye's attempt to pull people into trouble.
If the two of them were responsible for rescuing people, it would be less likely they would do anything secretly. After all, if the prince was not rescued, Han Wangan's anger would be vented on the person responsible.
"Since the Prime Minister also thinks it's feasible, well, if someone comes, tell Han Yu and Han Fei to enter the palace immediately."
On the other side, the Fourth Young Master Han Yu, who had always been well-informed, had also learned about the surprising changes that had taken place in the Prince's Mansion. He was keenly aware that he immediately understood that this was an opportunity.
No matter how well he did in the past, he always had a prince above his head. As long as the prince was there, the throne had nothing to do with him.
As for his eldest brother, he has long wanted to kill him, but he has never had a good chance - Han Yu has a great reputation and is known to be the person closest to the throne besides the prince. If the prince is killed for no reason, he will be the first suspect.
.
But now it's different with such a group of Baiyue rebels standing in front of us.
However, before Han Yu could summon his staff to discuss the specific operations, he was summoned away by someone from the palace.
Arriving at Han Wangan's study, Han Yu suddenly discovered that Ji Wuye and Kaifangdi, the two pillars of the imperial court, were there, as well as his ninth brother, who had recently become famous.
"My son, I pay homage to my father." Han Yu's expression remained unchanged, and he first paid his respects to King Han.
"No need to be too polite, Fourth Brother."
Han Yu then greeted Ji Wuye and others:
"I have met General Ji, Lord Prime Minister."
"You're welcome, Fourth Young Master." Naturally, the two of them had to reply.
"Fourth brother." As a junior, Han Fei must say hello first.
"Ninth brother." Han Yu nodded slightly.
"My father called me to the palace because of the trouble in the prince's palace?"
"That's right." Han Wangan nodded, "Fourth brother, the thieves who kidnapped the prince this time are still the remnants of Baiyue. Your ninth brother knows these people better, so I plan to let him be responsible for the rescue. General Ji's manpower will be with him
My subordinates will obey orders, and for the sake of safety, you will assist me. What do you think?"
As soon as Han Yu heard this, he knew that it must be Ji Wuye's trap... Maybe he would follow suit and make up for it. He wanted to trap himself and Lao Jiu, so he couldn't make any small moves.
"My father's arrangement is perfect, and I have no objections." Han Yu first agreed to Han Wang'an's instructions, and then said in a roundabout way, "But since it is the ninth brother who is in charge of this case, I, the elder brother, will be there to help.
I'm afraid he will feel uncomfortable if he is his deputy, and it is not a good thing to give orders twice. Otherwise, I will leave all my manpower to the ninth brother. If there is any problem, the ninth brother can go to me. In this way, the credit for rescuing the prince will also be given.
It all belongs to the ninth brother. It saves me, the older brother, from having to share the credit of the younger brother."
"Well..." Han Wangan pondered for a moment, "That's fine. The fourth child is really thoughtful, so let's do it like this."
Ji Wuye heard this and wanted to say something to stop him, but he didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only watch Han Yu take it out again.
"Lao Jiu, are you okay?" Finally, Han Wang Andu made his decision before symbolically asking Han Fei for his opinion.
Han Fei, who had always been silent and transparent, could only show a wry smile and replied helplessly:
"Of course I have no objection."
"Very good, you all go down and rescue the prince as soon as possible. Then I will reward you for your merits."
Everyone resigned together.
Among them, Han Fei's voice was the weakest - Reward? It would be great if I can stay safe...
