"Chu Li, I will not let you fight alone!" Prince Bao said solemnly: "If you need help, just ask!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chu Li nodded and said, "The army in Western Xinjiang is now all led by Prince Ping?"
"General Photographer Ping Wang is the marshal. n∈n∈," Prince Bao said: "With a hundred thousand troops and a high position, who can be willing to let go?"
"Don't you have a perfect plan for the emperor?" Chu Li shook his head and said: "The emperor is a wise man today, how could he reach such a situation?"
"The imperial brother is wise to others, but his handling of family affairs is a mess, otherwise he wouldn't be like this!" Prince Bao sighed: "Everything that concerns you will lead to chaos. He values family affection too much, and it is inevitable that he will be indecisive!"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
From this point of view, we must be more careful when killing King An, and we must not do it casually, otherwise the emperor will definitely go crazy. It is unimaginable how terrifying a crazy god master is, but he will definitely not let the murderer escape, and he will not be able to escape his pursuit.
Prince Bao said: "Among the princes, Prince Ping is the most like the emperor."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows: "As far as I know, it seems that King Jing's call for succession is higher."
"King Jing has a higher mind and handles affairs shrewdly and capable, even as good as the emperor." Prince Bao said: "The ministers all respect King Jing's talent and character, which can be said to be the heart of all people. But Prince Ping's temperament is more like the emperor, Jing."
The king and the emperor are not alike."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
In this way, you will be entangled in which one to choose. One is closer to you and you want him to succeed to the throne. The other is more suitable and is a prince respected by the ministers. If he can take over the throne in the future, the court will be safe.
Prince Bao said: "Prince Ping has a stubborn temper and is not good at managing affairs, but he is extremely talented in marching and fighting. He went to Western Xinjiang before and rose from a small centurion step by step without relying on the prince's influence.
The marshal, commanding an army of 100,000 men, is indeed a prodigy in this world."
Chu Li sighed: "It's a disaster, not a blessing."
"Exactly." Prince Bao said: "Once King Jing succeeds to the throne, what will he do with his younger brother? King Ping's prestige in the army is unmatched. He can order the army with just one sentence. Can King Jing sleep peacefully?"
Chu Li said: "Once King Jing becomes the emperor, won't he become a god?"
"The emperor is not the only god." Prince Bao said calmly.
Chu Li nodded slowly.
If King Ping forms an alliance with Daleiyin Temple, it will be useless for anyone to succeed to the throne. How can such a real threat not be eliminated?
Prince Bao said: "The emperor is obsessed with this. One has unparalleled prestige in the army, and the other has unparalleled prestige among the courtiers. No matter which one succeeds to the throne, the fate of the other will not be much better. This is for the emperor."
The most painful thing is being in a dilemma and being unable to make a decision!"
"The emperor didn't think of this at the beginning?" Chu Li frowned.
As an emperor, you must have foresight of things and should not let things develop.
"The emperor is soft-hearted. He originally wanted to reduce Prince Ping's military power, but every time Prince Ping made the right move, he immediately changed his mind." Prince Bao shook his head and sighed: "Prince Ping's temperament is too similar to that of the emperor. When they meet, he will be tough on the emperor. Father and son.
People can be very quarrelsome, but he likes Prince Ping the most."
Chu Li picked up the white jade cup and took a sip. They said that it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs, and besides, it is really not suitable to get involved with the affairs of the court.
Chu Li returned to Prince An's Mansion. As soon as he entered the gate, General Manager Chu greeted him: "General Manager, your subordinates are waiting."
Chu Li came to the hall and saw Dong Qifei walking around in the hall. Yang Zongwen was sitting in the Taishi chair, sipping tea, closing his eyes and seeming to enjoy the fragrance of tea.
"Centurion!" Dong Qifei hurriedly greeted him.
Chu Li waved his hand and sat down in the main seat: "It's so late, there's nothing we can say tomorrow."
"Centurion, we can't wait until tomorrow!" Dong Qifei said hurriedly: "This time they Mei Yiyuan went too far!"
Chu Li looked at Yang Zongwen.
Yang Zongwen clasped his fists and said: "Centurion, what Lao Dong said is right. Mei Yiyuan went too far this time. He took advantage of the centurion's absence to snatch the second assassination case and eat it all alone!"
Chu Li frowned: "The assassination of Prince Shan?"
"That's right!" Dong Qifei said: "They haven't solved the assassination case of Prince Jiang, but they have the nerve to snatch the second one. They also say that the two cases are related and that being together is the most conducive to solving the case. This is really shameless!"
Chu Li waved his hand: "Yang Zongwen, when did this happen?"
"An hour ago." Yang Zongwen said: "This second assassination case was handed over directly to our Secret Guards Mansion, not to the governor of Shendu. It was originally planned to be handed over to our Mei Second Courtyard, but Centurion you are not here, Mei Yiyi
Chen Donghai from the hospital snatched it away forcefully."
Chu Li said: "Then the commander didn't say anything?"
"The commander didn't agree at first, but then Chen Donghai issued a military order, saying that he would solve the case within three days, otherwise he would be willing to be punished." Dong Qifei said bitterly: "They must have grasped some clues and were confident before they snatched this case. Really
It’s not a thing!”
Chu Li waved his hand and said, "Is he really sure?"
"Three days to solve the case." Yang Zongwen said: "The time is so tight, if he is not sure, how dare he take this second case?"
Dong Qifei said: "Centurion, we can't let this matter go like this. If we don't take it back, our Mei Eryuan will be regarded as weaklings and they will come to bully us!"
Yang Zongwen nodded and said: "Centurion, Old Dong is right, we have to snatch it back."
Chu Li frowned and hummed: "Forget this case, I will rob them next time!"
He didn't expect Mei Yiyuan to be so proactive. He was just in a hurry, but he was really sure that it was the best thing and it was exactly what he wanted.
Prince Bao had nothing to say about being able to solve the case. It wasn't that he didn't accept the case, but Mei Yiyuan took the opportunity to snatch it away while attending the banquet.
Seeing that Chu Li was indifferent, Dong Qifei became anxious: "Centurion, the case has been solved this time. It is a fourth-grade military merit! ... Fourth-grade military merit!"
Yang Zongwen said slowly: "That's why Mei Yiyuan is red-eyed."
Dong Qifei said: "With fourth-grade military merit, we can do nothing for two years, but we can still be popular and drink spicy food. The rewards we get can be converted into silver, and we can buy a mansion similar to the Secret Guard Mansion!"
Chu Li raised his eyebrows.
He is not that sensitive to military merit. As the chief steward of the royal palace and the steward of the Duke's palace, when there is no shortage of money, there is also no shortage of swords and the like, so he does not care.
Yang Zongwen said: "Centurion, since Chen Donghai is unkind, we don't need to follow the rules and tell the commander directly that our Mei Second Academy will also investigate, each investigating his own, and seeing who can break through first, he will be rewarded!"
"That's it, I'm going to slap them in the face hard this time!" Dong Qifei said hurriedly: "Let other hospitals know how powerful our Mei Second Hospital is, so that they don't dare to take credit anymore!"
Chu Li said: "Next time, forget it this time."
It is unwise to get into huge trouble just for a big house.
"Centurion!" Dong Qifei shouted dissatisfied.
Chu Li waved his hand impatiently, "Go ahead, I'm tired too. Don't be an eyesore here and go about your business."
"Centurion, what a fourth-grade military merit!" Dong Qifei shouted.
Chu Li said: "Military merit will come sooner or later, go ahead!"
He said as he got up and returned to his small courtyard.
The next day I went to the Secret Guard Mansion. As soon as I arrived in front of the mansion, a guard said: "Centurion Chu, the commander-in-chief invites you!"
Chu Li nodded and came to the hall.
In addition to the deputy commander, there was also a middle-aged man sitting, Chen Donghai, the centurion of Meiyiyuan. (To be continued.)
