Chapter seven hundred and thirteenth to resist the decree
After a pause, Xu Deyan hesitated and said: "Is the general really sure that the East Palace will take action when we expect it?"
Li Xingchen raised his eyebrows, which was tantamount to asking himself whether his guess was correct. To put it mildly, it could be called confirmation, and to put it worst, it was questioning Li Xingchen.
However, Li Xingchen did not blame Xu Deyan. After all, Xu Deyan was not alone, and he was obviously not asking this question. Following Li Xingchen for such a long time, Xu Deyan had already developed trust in Li Xingchen. If he were just himself, he would definitely not ask this question.
Question, he was asking on behalf of Xu Ling and the officials in the entire Xu Ling system.
In this upcoming incident, everyone is risking their lives and wealth, so of course they want an accurate answer, even if they know that this is just a psychological comfort, and the situation is changing rapidly and no one can control it.
Li Xingchen put away his smile and said lightly: "To be honest, I am not completely sure. But this is undoubtedly the most likely. We only have one choice now, so why should we give up the most likely one and consider others?"
As he spoke, Li Xinchen looked around, his voice still very calm: "A certain Li Xinchen has never failed in his life, and this time, it will definitely be the same."
Xu Deyan and others suddenly looked solemn.

Shen Jungao sat quietly in the meeting hall of the East Palace. Above him sat Chen Shubao. However, at this time, Chen Shubao was not as high-spirited as Shen Jungao imagined. He dragged his chin with one hand and seemed to be drowsy. However, Chen Shubao's
This state is also reasonable. It seems that Chen Shubao has not been in high spirits except when discussing things like music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Obviously, what Shen Jungao and the others are discussing at this time does not interest Chen Shubao. Of course, he also knows that being a hands-off shopkeeper does not mean doing nothing. At least he has to be here. What Shen Jungao says is what he needs to do at this time.
Nod in agreement.
But Chen Shubao always felt that Shen Jungao's decision this time seemed strange.
Chen Shubao didn't know anything about Li Xingchen, and he even had a good impression of him. After all, Li Xingchen left a deep impression on him when he was in Jingzhou, whether he was responsible for reception or taking him around.
, he still saved his life at a critical moment and took the opportunity to fight back and finally helped the East Palace eradicate the powerful enemy of the Yangzhou Governor. Li Xingchen showed impeccable loyalty and unmatched ability by others, so Chen Shubao still admired him very much.
Chen Shubao didn't know why in the blink of an eye, Li Xingchen turned from his capable subordinate to an opponent even more dangerous than the original Yangzhou governor, while Lu Qiong, Chen Bogu and others who had jointly attacked him several times had become
He lost his loyal subordinates, so he could only sit here and listen in ignorance. It seemed that Shen Jungao wanted to lead the people here to petition his father to capture Li Xinchen.
Chen Shubao always felt that this was wrong, but since Shen Jungao had already said it, he felt that it was better for him to obey his orders. Chen Shubao did not think that he had much ability to judge the situation at hand clearly. Shen Jungao was obviously more likely to be right than himself.
.
And Shen Jungao's focus at this time is obviously not on Chen Shubao. His Royal Highness will certainly not have any objections to his idea. In the final analysis, it is how the remaining people work together.
On Shen Jungao's side, Fu Yi, Mr. Jiang, Kong Fan and other East Palace ministers were sitting upright. Regardless of their inner thoughts on this matter, at least what they need to show now is of course their unconditional support for Shen Jungao. On the other side,
It was Chen Shujian and Chen Bogu, including Fan Yi, Lu Qiong and other courtiers. These courtiers either had just established contact with the East Palace, or were enemies of the East Palace before. Of course, they had different expressions and looked at each other from time to time.
At a glance, it was obvious that he was somewhat confused about Shen Jungao's proposal.
Shen Jungao said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow is Li Xinchen's wedding. Since Li Xinchen has decided to stay and attend the wedding, it means that even if he is aware of the risk, he does not realize that it may make him doomed. Since we take action,
We cannot give Li Xinchen any room for maneuver, and once we capture Li Xinchen, we must stabilize his 800 troops and gradually take over his Bashu power."
Suddenly, the eyes of the people around him began to glow. This was the reason why they were willing to help Shen Jungao. Wanting to avenge Li Xinchen was actually a trivial matter. Li Xinchen now has such a powerful power, and it is impossible to say that no one is jealous.
Although it is not enough for everyone to eat, everyone can taste the taste of the soup.
This is enough.
What's more, in addition to Li Xingchen, there are also Xu Ling and Wu Mingche. Although they don't expect to defeat Xu Ling and Wu Mingche by defeating Li Xingchen, after all, Wu Mingche and Xu Ling have been entrenched for so many years.
It does not mean that Xu Ling and Wu Mingche will not be affected at all. They just say that a small blow is enough for those present to gain a lot of benefits.
Shen Jungao then said: "Tomorrow evening when Li Xinchen is getting married, we will collectively ask to see your majesty. If your majesty agrees, then we will detain Li Xinchen early the next morning. The best option is of course to make Li Xinchen obedient.
If the Kang family is a prince-in-law, then we can acquiesce in his existence, but if Li Xingchen still has the courage to resist, then he will be captured alive and charged or killed without mercy!"
Fan Yi, Chen Bogu and others all nodded slightly. They all knew how dangerous Li Xingchen was. If possible, it would be best to eradicate him. Even if Li Xingchen obeyed his orders, Shen Jungao and others would not let him live for long. They would definitely do it later.
You still need to find a reason to deal with it.
"What if His Majesty doesn't agree?" Chen Bogu said in a deep voice at this time.
This is actually their biggest concern. Now that Li Xingchen is in Jiankang City, as long as the East Palace Guards and the Imperial City Guards cooperate and close the city gate, Li Xingchen can really say that he will not be able to escape. But if His Majesty does not
If you agree, then this matter will not be so easy to deal with. After all, everything needs to go against His Majesty's wishes, which will be a challenge for everyone's heads and official hats.
And Shen Jungao said slowly: "If His Majesty does not agree, are you planning to withdraw?"
Chen Bogu, Fan Yi and others looked at each other and wondered why Shen Jungao asked such a question. However, Chen Bogu and Chen Shujian, two royal family members, were the first to say in a deep voice: "This matter is already related to the national lineage of Da Chen."
Continue, if we don't take action, I'm afraid Li Xingchen will definitely become the biggest threat to me, Da Chen!"
