The fourth prince, the fifth prince, and Chu Lan were sitting in Mingyue Tower.
This Mingyue Tower is Chu Lan's own property. Although Chu Lan is now very arrogant and sharp in the court, he is still very cautious when discussing secret matters.
After the three of them got together, they greeted each other and sat down.
The fourth prince asked with a smile, "Since the seventh brother offended his father and was locked up in the mansion to think about his past, the eighth brother was highly regarded by his father and became a very busy man. Why do you have time to ask your brother to drink with you today?"
This may sound fine, but the connotation is that Chu Lan stepped on Chu Yan and took the opportunity to ascend to power.
Chu Lan was not angry either, and sighed with a smile, "Fourth brother, don't laugh at my younger brother. Although my younger brother is busy spinning all day long, what's the use? Isn't it better than the two elder brothers to have leisure and enjoy themselves? My younger brother is burdened, is it?
I shared my father's worries, but it's a pity that I couldn't stop my father from worrying. It was my younger brother who was incompetent."
"We would like to share the worries for our father, but he doesn't give us a chance." The fifth prince said rudely, "If the eighth brother feels that he is incompetent, why not give up his position and let his brother do it for him?"
This was said so openly and without any concealment.
Chu Lan's face was a little confused, and his smile disappeared, "What does fifth brother mean? If the fifth brother can get the younger brother's position, the fifth brother can take it as he pleases."
The fifth prince choked.
Which prince currently has the face, trust, and support of Chu Lan in front of the emperor? No, there is only Chu Lan.
The fourth prince immediately reconciled, "My father likes the eighth brother. Aren't all the brothers jealous? Well, they are all brothers, why should we hurt the harmony? The eighth brother thought of his brothers in his busy schedule today, so he took the time to make an appointment with his brother.
You guys don’t know what’s going on?”
Chu Lan said with a sullen face, "Originally I wanted to discuss a deal with my two brothers, but if the fourth brother and the fifth brother keep talking sarcastically and taunting the younger brother, the younger brother will not be able to bear it no matter how good-tempered he is, so it's okay not to discuss the deal.
."
The fifth prince snorted, "What good deal can you get?"
Chu Lan also snorted, "Forget it."
After saying that, he made a gesture to leave.
The fourth prince grabbed him and said, "Alas, eighth brother, stay here. You have a good business, and you are thinking about your brothers. This is brotherhood. Your fifth brother has been angry recently, and he is always rude to everyone. Come on.
Come, sit down, let’s talk.”
Chu Lan didn't want to leave at first. After being pulled by the fourth prince, she turned to look at the fifth prince, "It's not a good deal. Fifth brother, do you want to hear it?"
The fifth prince also felt that he had gone too far, so he followed the fourth prince's words and went down the steps, "Just listen."
Chu Lan sat down again and said, "Brothers, have you ever thought that Seventh Brother will one day turn around?"
"He? Turn over?" The fifth prince sneered.
The fourth prince was more stable and said after careful consideration, "Although the old King of Nanyang has entered the capital and is in the capital, An Huajin has returned to Nanyang. In addition, Gu Qingyan, who is obsessed with An Huajin, has not been seen yet, but
It has also been made clear that towards the Anjia, towards the Anjia, it is equivalent to towards the seventh brother. If he turns over, it is really hard to say."
The fifth prince immediately said, "Didn't my father send him to strangle those stinky Taoist priests in Wufeng Mountain without a single soldier? How dangerous is Wufeng Mountain? If he goes without a single soldier, isn't he looking for death? Don't
Infuriated by the anger of those stinky Taoist priests, they were fried in oil just like the Ouchi guards sent out by the emperor."
"He is much more powerful than we thought." Chu Yan said, "For so many years, as the queen's legitimate son, he was taken by his father to teach him since he was a child. His maternal grandfather's family is the An family, which gives him a strong backing.
, he has raised a lot of people for so many years. His father dismissed him from all positions and shut himself up for such a long time. Although we have eliminated many of his people, I am afraid we have not really done anything to him. He really
The manpower is probably dormant. Now they must have all been taken to Wufeng Mountain."
"So what? He doesn't have a single soldier. No matter how powerful he is, the smelly Taoist priests in Wufeng Mountain are not vegetarians. According to a Jianghu staff in my government, Wufeng Mountain has sent a rescue letter to the outside world. Once the rescue letter comes out, everyone
The Jianghu sects who have received the favor of Wufeng Mountain will definitely come to the rescue. There is a possibility that the entire Jianghu will be alarmed. This is no joke. It would be fine if he had soldiers and horses in his hands, but his father did not give them.
He has one soldier and one soldier." The fifth prince said.
The fourth prince took the words and asked Chu Yan, "Is it you who gave the advice to your father to not give your seventh brother a soldier? That day, I saw you hurriedly entering the palace after my father summoned Chu Chen.
, Chu Chen came back, nothing happened, there was nothing to do, but the father issued an imperial edict and sent his seventh brother to go."
"My brother is just thinking about how powerful the old Nanyang King is, isn't he? With him here, he could single-handedly sweep through enemy camps in the past, and today he can help Seventh Brother sweep down Wufeng Mountain without spending a single soldier." Chu Lan pretended, "After all, the capital city
The two brothers understand whether it is better to avoid losses or not to lose our troops."
Understand, they naturally understand that the military strength in the capital is the emperor's military strength, which adds up to more than 300,000. The Nanyang army has millions of soldiers and horses. Although they are also from Da Chu, this is a superficial statement. In fact, no one can
You know, the Nanyang Army listened to King Nanyang, no, now it listens to An Huajin.
The little girl An Huajin is really powerful. After returning to Nanyang, with a single order, no news can be spread in Nanyang. It is so airtight that no one can find out the specific situation.
No wonder the old King Nanyang came to live in Beijing with peace of mind. After coming here for so long, he was really stable. He didn't show up and stayed in the Seventh Prince's Mansion quite comfortably. However, they couldn't even find out the news about the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
Chu Yan was also so powerful that even the emperor couldn't do anything to find out the news.
After all, the emperor punished Chu Yan and dismissed him from all his posts at once. Benjiu's punishment was too severe. Since he had not committed any unforgivable crime, he surrounded the Seventh Prince's Mansion with the imperial guards. Such a siege was not bad.
, even the emperor doesn’t know what happened in Chu Yan’s mansion.
It's true that people inside the mansion can't get out, and outsiders can't get in. Even if there are hidden stakes inside, it's impossible to send news out unless the emperor goes to the seventh prince's mansion in person, but the emperor doesn't want to see Chu Yan at all, and
He cannot be punished more severely, such as the death penalty, otherwise the courtiers will explode. In this case, as long as he stays safely in the palace, nothing will happen, and people will find no trouble if they want to. p>
Chu Yan is exactly the person who can stay in the mansion for eighty days without any worries.
Not only Chu Lan had a deep understanding of it, but the fourth and fifth princes, who had been competing with Chu Lan to encroach on Chu Yan, also had a deep understanding of it.
"Eighth brother, just tell me! Are you coming to us today about the seventh brother?" the fourth prince asked directly.
When Chu Lan saw that the fourth prince asked the question directly, he simply did not beat around the bush and said directly, "Exactly, the brother came to find the two brothers because he wanted to join forces with the two brothers and attack the Five Kingdoms while his father did not give him a soldier.
Fengshan, he and the group of smelly Taoist priests in Wufengshan have the opportunity to lose both sides in one fell swoop..."
Chu Lan made a beheading gesture with a sinister look in his eyes, and continued, "Let him stay in Wufeng Mountain and never come back."
The fourth prince and the fifth prince looked at Chu Yan, took a breath, were all startled, and opened their eyes wide.
Chu Lan looked at the shocked eyes of the two, put away her sinister expression, and asked them, "Don't you want to kill Chu Yan?"
At this time, he didn't even call Seventh Brother anymore.
He said in a deep voice, "My father has wanted to kill An Huajin since the day of the palace banquet, but he has never done so. Now, there is nothing we can do about An Huajin. Lord Wang gave my father a suggestion and summoned the old King of Nanyang to Beijing to argue.
However, after the old King Nanyang entered the capital, he has been staying in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, refusing to go to the palace to see his father unless he refuses to give up. This attitude is obviously clear, and he is protecting her granddaughter. In this way, do you think that if Chu Yan can make a comeback?
He has the support of An Huajin, can we win him? Once the opportunity is lost, how can we win him in the future?"
This is quite reasonable.
Everyone said that the old King Nanyang was loyal, but now it seems that this is not necessarily the case. It is obvious that the old King Nanyang does not have much respect for his father. Otherwise, he would not have been hiding in the seventh prince's house since he entered the capital.
Such an old Nanyang King made it clear that he supported his grandson Chu Yan.
The fourth prince and the fifth prince looked at each other. Compared to the great position and the supreme power, what is brotherhood? What's more, they don't have much brotherhood with Chu Yan. They are just the same father, not the same mother. There is no father and son in the Tian family.
, God gave them the status of prince. If they don’t fight for it, wouldn’t they be wasting this status given by God?
The fourth prince said in a deep voice, "Eighth brother, you have the support of your father, why do you want us to join forces?"
Chu Lan didn't hide anything. Anyway, the two of them already knew everything about him. He said bluntly, "One brother can't do anything to him. I'm afraid of missing out, so I called the two brothers together to have greater confidence and kill him in one fell swoop."
."
"What happens after you kill him?" the fifth prince asked.
Chu Lan said, "Everyone depends on their ability."
