It was already late at night when Yang Sheng received the Fei Yu sent back from Shen Wujiu. He had given instructions that as long as the Fei Yu came from Duoya Mountain, it should be presented immediately no matter when and where.
The palace maid held the lamp and then retreated. In the middle of the night, Yang Sheng opened Feiyu in the side hall of the harem where he went to bed and read it carefully, with an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
"Have you seen the stuff?"
Zhang Yan was asking about Wu Kui, the personal eunuch and head of the special department who sent Fei Yu here.
Wu Kui stood in the corner and waited until the emperor called him before he came out, bowed his body, lowered his head and replied: "I have never seen it."
"Let's take a look. This should be the first one, and there should be more coming later. Hmph, I'm afraid things about Little Thirteen are really going to be troublesome."
Wu Kui walked over and picked up the Feiyu copper bar that the emperor threw on the table. After unfolding it, he saw that it briefly said two things. One was about the thirteenth prince Yang Rui. Zhang Yan said that he would find the thirteenth prince.
And asked him to come back. But at the same time, he also hinted that the wishes of the Thirteenth Prince would take priority and would not force intervention.
This matter is indeed not good news. Nowadays, the Thirteenth Prince is too important to Nanyuan Kingdom. Even His Majesty's delay in establishing a crown prince is because of the consideration of the Thirteenth Prince's status.
Although His Majesty never mentioned it, Wu Kui knew very well what His Majesty was planning.
It’s just that we are not in a hurry to establish a crown prince for the time being. Because it seems that establishing a crown prince will affect the status of the Thirteenth Prince in the royal family, and it will also appear inappropriate. Because from the most favorable perspective of Nanyuan Kingdom, the Thirteenth Prince
There is no doubt that he is the most suitable candidate to succeed the throne. But this "most suitable" can only be a unilateral wish. After all, the Thirteenth Prince clearly wants to stay in the cliff mountain to practice more than the throne. Therefore, the Thirteenth Prince is
Being established as a prince seems very good, but in reality it is completely impossible.
Since the idea of establishing the thirteenth prince as the crown prince cannot be realized, then the next best thing is to continue the great influence of the thirteenth prince on Nanyuan Kingdom. For example, make the thirteenth prince's heir the prince.
After all, the emperor is still in good health and is a warrior. It is not a problem to live for another forty or fifty years. He can even take his time and wait to bring up the heirs of the thirteenth prince.
Therefore, it is very important for the thirteenth prince to get married. Even if it is not with the princess of Huayue Kingdom, it is okay, but we can't really delay the marriage for decades, right? The emperor can't wait.
I originally wanted to ask Zhang Yan to help get the Thirteenth Prince back to get married, but I'm afraid it will be difficult now. But fortunately, Zhang Yan will let the Thirteenth Prince come back, and the royal family will have a chance to make another effort. At least find a chance to keep the Thirteenth Prince.
The third prince's heir, no matter who he is, can stay.
Wu Kui went through all these twists and turns and became clear in his mind. After all, he was with the emperor all day long, and he knew everything about what the emperor was worried about. Following the emperor's thoughts and judging the situation, he came to the conclusion that seemed to be the safest at the moment.
The result is not difficult either.
However, if the Thirteenth Prince's temperament changes after he returns, then everything is still uncertain.
Another thing that can be considered good news.
An offer of assistance from Cliff Mountain.
This is the news that Nanyuan Kingdom has been waiting for for a long time. Now Nanyuan Kingdom can quickly become famous in the human country, and enjoys a very high special status, as well as practical benefits. This is all due to the cliff mountain and the inheritance from the cliff mountain.
Benefits. Such as ghost-catching bells and bone-strengthening pills.
The most important thing is that the Nanyuan Kingdom is where the cliff mountain is located, and it is also the birthplace of Zhang Yan.
Helping Duoya Mountain is actually helping Nanyuan Kingdom itself. The more help, the closer the relationship between Nanyuan Kingdom and Duoya Mountain is, and the easier it is to take advantage of the prestige of Duoya Mountain and take advantage of the human race.
Affordable.
What's more, the news sent back by Shen Wujiu this time mentioned something more exciting than the ghost-catching bell and the bone-strengthening pill. If it works well, the benefits to Nanyuan Kingdom will be immeasurable!
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already made preparations for the Thirteenth Prince's matter. If it doesn't work out, there is still hope of leaving an heir for the Thirteenth Prince, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain it to Huayue Kingdom." Things went one by one.
Said. Wu Kui first told the relevant preparations about the Thirteenth Prince. The Ministry of Internal Affairs secretly prepared dozens of beautiful girls of various colors, just in case. Wu Kui was cooperating in this matter.
"Huayue Kingdom? Haha, today is different from the past. If it is just about Xiao Shisan, it is really not appropriate to cancel the marriage or change the marriage with them at this time. After all, Huayue is already our largest entry and exit channel for business transactions now.
But isn’t there another news this time? Haha, do you think the people in Huayue will fall out with us because of such news?”
Regarding Wu Kui who has been with him all day long, Yang Sheng is not surprised that Wu Kui figured out his thoughts, and he is also happy to see this, so that he has someone to discuss many things with.
Wu Kui thought for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, do you want to use this request from Duoyashan to take advantage of Huayue Kingdom?"
"It's not a matter of control, but it's okay to prevent them from taking any drastic action regarding Xiao Shisan's marriage. It's just a few words of swearing. After all, in the final analysis, we are in the wrong this time.
of.
Tsk tsk, do you think Zhang Yan’s sect has any resistance to the sexual pleasures between men and women? Zhang Yan himself has not gotten married yet, and even Xiao Shisan in his sect is now as afraid of getting married as a snake or scorpion. Why is this?”
"Your Majesty, Zhang Yan can't help but be a womanizer. When he was in Langyuan City, he was also a frequent visitor to the flower house in the city. Sometimes he would go to have fun with Zhou Cang, who was the city guard of Langyuan City at the time. This matter is in the
Langyuan City is not a secret. It's just that after moving to Duoya Mountain, there is less information on this aspect. However, the possibility of abstinence practice can basically be ruled out.
Your Majesty, do you think it is because of the turmoil in the royal family that the Thirteenth Prince is extremely resistant to this matter?"
"Huh? Tell me in detail." This was the first time Yang Sheng heard this statement, and he immediately became interested.
"Your Majesty, compared to the cultivation in the mountains and the sense of achievement in gaining strength, the machinations and schemes in the royal family may have become a knot in the heart of the Thirteenth Prince. In the past, he was young, fashionable and repressed, but now his strength and knowledge are greater than those of his elders.
Most people are so advanced that they will naturally have resistance. If we can make some preparations in this regard, maybe we can change the impression of the Thirteenth Prince."
Yang Sheng was noncommittal after listening, but he listened in his heart. As for how to plan, he should think about it himself.
"In addition, your special department must come up with a detailed strategy for the Duoya Mountain matter within three days. I only have two requirements. This matter must be firmly grasped in our hands, just like the bell and the Bone Strengthening Pill.
Secondly, for this matter, priority must be given to selecting people from us first, and the rest will take the turn of outsiders."
