Chapter 1808 Everyone has their own selfish motives
Why is Soga Ezo so prestigious?
Isn’t it because under his leadership, the Suga family can always stand at the pinnacle of the Japanese nobility and can seek greater benefits for the clan...
Now that Souma has pushed the family into the realm of royalty in one fell swoop, the interests of the clan members can be fully maximized, more than twice as much as before. Under such circumstances, let alone who has high prestige, even if it is just a grandson or great-great-grandson
Yes, everyone is willing to follow his lead!
However, Sumo's reasoning is still hesitant. Why: "But the old master has clearly stated his refusal. No matter how much I try to persuade him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make him change his mind. How conceited, stubborn and stubborn that man is. You
It’s not like I don’t know.”
There is a generation difference between him and Soga Ezo, but he is only a few years older. He has lived under the aura of Soga Ezo his whole life. Even if he says that he is unscrupulous, he himself does not believe it.
Besides, he knew Soga Ezo's stubbornness very well, and he didn't even have the slightest confidence to persuade him...
Su Ga Mingtai suggested: "Why bother to persuade the eldest brother? My father can completely do his own thing. Now with the support of the Tang people, we can completely leave the eldest brother aside. As long as the established facts are established, the whole family will support my father.
Even if the eldest brother objects, so what?"
Suama was stunned for a moment: "Create an established fact?"
Su Ga Mingta nodded fiercely, the father and son looked at each other, and both saw the sinister cold light in each other's eyes...
A person who is petty is not a gentleman, and a person who is not poisonous is not a husband!
As long as you do something irreversible, even if Soga Ezo rejects it, so what?
After all, he cannot oppose the determination of all the tribesmen to pursue higher interests, and may even be criticized by the tribesmen for this.
And with the support of the Tang Dynasty, Sumo Lishi and his son will completely take the lead and become the ones leading the family's progress...
Sumo slammed the table hard and gritted his teeth and said: "Since my son yearns for that position, how can my father, an old fool who is about to enter the coffin, retreat despite the difficulties? I can't say, I will fight.
This old life will create a great hegemony for future generations!"
"Someone is coming!"
"My son, lead a hundred soldiers to Orange Temple!"
"Put on the old man's armor, and the rest will follow me to Pangai Palace!"
"Invite the envoy from the Tang Dynasty quickly!"
"Today, I am going to fight for the future generations of my family and see if I can win a grand hegemony that lasts for a long time!"
…
*****
Wang Xuance and Jin Famin had just been placed in a monastery. After washing up, and before they had dinner, someone came to inform him that Sumama Lishi had invited him to meet him and discuss important matters.
Wang Xuance was inexplicably excited and said to Jin Famin: "Big things can be done! From now on, Silla has no worries anymore. When you have time someday, Brother Jin should treat me to a drink!"
The three Koreas were bullied by the Japanese, and Silla, which faced each other across the sea, was the most vicious. If the Soga family could usurp the throne with the support of the Tang Dynasty and seize the power of the emperor, the biggest beneficiary would be Silla. At the same time, Silla would be the biggest beneficiary.
Not only were the allies of the Tang Dynasty no longer bullied by the Japanese state, but they were able to gain the support of the Japanese state to fight against Goguryeo and Baekje...
Jin Famin was sincerely convinced and bowed his head to the ground: "Then I accept your auspicious words and I wish you success in achieving this great feat and a prosperous official career in the future!"
Wang Xuance laughed, turned around and walked out of the monastery, going to meet Sumama Rise.
Seeing Wang Xuance's arrival, Sumo Lishi stood up and said straight to the point: "If I form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, how much help can I get?"
Wang Xuance was completely relieved. Knowing that the big thing had been accomplished, he said solemnly: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. The one who formed an alliance with you is not the Tang Dynasty, but my Marquis."
"How dare you tease my father and son?!" Mingta Suga was furious.
Datang and Fang Jun, can they be the same?
One is a super empire that dominates the world, and the other is a mere marquis...
There was a sneer on Wang Xuance's face, but he was not worried: "You are just a mere family, and you cannot control the power of the family. What qualifications do you have to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty? My Marquis is in charge of the navy and controls sea trade. In terms of strength,
It is more than ten times more powerful than your family? Now that I have come here, I have already regarded you father and son in high regard. Those who understand the current affairs are considered outstanding. When you father and son become emperors and hold the Tianxian in their hands, it will not be too late to discuss an alliance with the Tang Dynasty."
The Japanese are capricious and willful, and you cannot follow them at any time. You have to show toughness from time to time. This will make them more submissive and willing to be encouraged.
The expressions on the faces of Sumo Lishi and his son were not good-looking, but since they had made a decision, they would not change it easily, and they also admitted that Wang Xuance's words were good. Look at what the Tang navy did in Annan and Lin Yiguo.
I knew that there must be enough power to help them conquer the Japanese country and usurp the throne.
"In this case, please send people to Nambajin immediately, and order soldiers to come to Asukakyo to help me shock the people and establish my hegemony!"
“It’s a deal!”
"It's hard to chase the horse!"
"Bah bang bang!"
Wang Xuance and Sumo Lishi high-fived each other three times as an oath of alliance!
Sugamo Lishi said solemnly: "I will mobilize the soldiers as soon as possible to help me calm the situation in Asukakyo and scare the world's feudal countries. If necessary, please go out to fight."
Wang Xuance naturally agreed, and after some discussion and agreement on various cooperation details, he left.
The heavy rain is still falling with no intention of stopping, and it is expected that the Asuka River will be flooded by tomorrow at the latest.
Wang Xuance looked up at the dark sky, the excitement and ecstasy in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and a proud smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth...
The rebellion of the Soga family is bound to cause irreparable turmoil to the Japanese political situation. In addition, the Eni people in the north, who have already sharpened their skills, are marching south to attack the city and seize territory. Only the Tang Dynasty can become the savior of the Japanese people.
Strength allowed the turbulent Japanese country to continue.
By that time, wouldn't the powerful Japanese country still allow the Tang army to take whatever they wanted?
As for Sado Island, it has a maritime trade monopoly... haha.
Immediately, Wang Xuance sent his bodyguards to Nambajin and transferred the soldiers on board to Asukakyo.
Soga Mingta personally led people to Tachibana Temple, and Soga Morishi also put on armor and led a group of dead soldiers to Pangai Palace in the rain all night.
Itakai Palace is a place where the royal family gathers, and most of the emperor's bloodline lives here. The four gates have long been blocked by the soldiers of the Soga family, and no one is allowed to enter or exit at will.
Souma rushed to the palace gate, and was greeted by the younger members of the clan.
"The clan leader came here late at night, but what's the important matter?"
"Hurry and wait for me to see the Prince of the Sea People."
"yes."
Soga Rise's status is revered in the Soga family. His seniority is so high that no one dares to defy him, let alone question him. Dang even takes him straight into the palace and goes to the residence of Prince Kaito, the son of Emperor Kogoku and the younger brother of Prince Katsuragi.
.
Although I had doubts about the group of dead soldiers following Souma Lishi, I didn't even dare to ask any more questions...
During the heavy rain, Pangai Palace, which had just experienced a bloody mutiny during the day, became much colder and quieter. Oil lamps were lit in the palaces in groups of three and three. There were soldiers from the Suga family standing guard in front of the door, patrolling back and forth. No one dared to easily
Go out for fear of causing disaster.
All the royal family were frightened to death. Who could have expected that Prince Katsuragi would launch a mutiny and assassinate Suga Iruka? Who could have expected that even His Majesty the Emperor would die in this mutiny?
Faced with the opportunity to seek the throne and usurp the throne, the Suga family hesitated to take the next step. How could the royal family not see this possibility?
No one knows where the Suga family will go. The royal family is just tied up in the palace, waiting for the judgment of fate...
The prince of the people of the sea sat blankly in the palace. There was dinner on the table, but he did not move it.
He didn't know why such a change happened suddenly. He admired and complained about Prince Katsuragi...
No royal family wanted to see the Soga family being so powerful that they controlled the government and used the emperor as a puppet. Prince Kaito, like his brother Prince Katsuragi, even dreamed of one day eradicating the Soga family and returning power to the royal family.
But you just did it, but failed, causing the entire royal family to suffer the consequences you brought, which makes people feel resentful...
"boom!"
The palace door was kicked open without warning, and the prince of the people of the sea was frightened. When he looked up, he saw Suamalishi in armor rushing in with a group of dead soldiers wrapped in the wind and rain.
Prince Dahai's heart instantly sank to the bottom of his heart, and he swallowed. Before he could ask, Suamali waved his skinny palm and said in a cold voice: "Kill!"
The Prince of the Sea People was horrified and turned to run away, but several soldiers rushed up and pushed him to the ground. They covered his mouth and stabbed his body with several steel knives.
Dark red blood flowed out, and the eyes of the Prince of the Sea People bulged out. He only twitched for a while and then became silent again.
Blood was flowing, and the rain was pouring outside the palace...
