King Ning glared at Liu Yangzheng, and Li Shishi said: "How can the lonely king not be angry? That is an army of nearly 200,000 people. How can you let the lonely king feel at ease!"
Both Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi were speechless. In fact, Chu Yi reorganized the capital camp and even expanded the number of people in the capital camp to nearly 200,000. This was indeed a surprise to Prince Ning, who was bent on planning a rebellion.
a bolt from the blue.
After getting angry, Prince Ning took a deep breath and said to Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi: "I am really depressed. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me."
Li Shishi and Liu Yangzheng did not dare to talk to each other.
After sitting down, Prince Ning took a sip of tea and looked at Liu Yangzheng and Liu Yangzheng. He said solemnly: "Two gentlemen, please tell me. If I plan to raise an army within this year, how many troops can we gather by then?"
After hearing what Prince Ning said, Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi couldn't help but change their expressions. Apparently they didn't expect Prince Ning to be so impatient.
Seeing the expressions of the two men, Prince Ning could naturally guess what they were thinking. He sighed and said, "I am not in a hurry. If Chu Yi, the eunuch, does not reorganize the Beijing camp, I will
We can spend a few more years to build up our strength and wait for the right time, but the nearly 200,000 troops in the capital camp, if they really form an army, then I have little hope of attacking the capital!"
In fact, as the two closest advisors to Prince Ning, if they could not see through this, they would not be entrusted with important tasks by Prince Ning.
The two of them didn't know that the nearly 200,000 troops in the capital were a huge mountain to them. Once the army was formed, the possibility of King Ning's rebellion being successful was almost slim.
Looking at Li Shishi and Li Shishi, King Ning said with all his heart: "Two gentlemen, I can only take advantage of the fact that the capital's army has not yet been trained to attack the capital in the shortest possible time and kill the faint king. Every day it takes, the situation will change."
It is becoming more and more unfavorable to this king."
Liu Yangzheng let out a long breath, looked at King Ning and said: "Your Highness, if we put all our efforts, we can raise an army of 30,000 in a short period of time. At that time, Your Highness will hold the banner high and kill the officials and generals who are unwilling to be used by Your Highness."
, we can collect all the troops in Jiangxi, and we can gather an army of 100,000 people."
Li Shishi raised his hands and said: "His Highness has made friends with the Guangxi Wolf Soldiers, Gannan, Zhangzhou, Fujian and other local armed forces over the years. It is time for them to serve His Highness!"
Liu Yangzheng narrowed his eyes and said: "There are also giant pirates Yang Qing, Li Fu, Wang Ru and others. Your Highness usually secretly supports them across the river. Once the army is launched, these people can become your Royal Highness's navy!"
Stroking his beard, Prince Ning nodded slightly. In order to seize the throne over the years, he had really made friends and built up a lot of people. Even the biggest gangsters had his support behind them.
Although they don't look very eye-catching, if they really gather, there will be tens of thousands of them. For King Ning, the most important thing when raising an army is to have a big momentum, and a large number of people can best reflect the momentum.
Come, so even if it is a ragtag group of people, as long as it can help King Ning raise an army, King Ning will welcome it extremely.
However, Liu Yangzheng looked at King Ning and said: "If Your Highness really wants to raise an army, there is still a lack of time. Otherwise, if he raises an army without any reason, he will definitely lose the support of the people. It is best to gain the reputation of righteousness and be accepted by the world. Only in this way can the people support him."
Towards."
Ning his eyes narrowed, Prince Ning frowned and said: "If there is someone who can come to help me, then I will definitely be recognized by a considerable number of officials. However, I sent many people but could not find his whereabouts."
Liu Yangzheng said: "Could it be that the person your Highness is talking about is the former Chief Assistant Yang Tinghe?"
Prince Ning nodded and said: "Yes, it is this person. Yang Tinghe has been ups and downs in the officialdom for decades, and is deeply rooted in the court. There are countless officials in the world who are inextricably linked to Yang Tinghe, although he is wanted by the emperor.
, but this person is of great help to my great cause. If we can get his help, it can at least be worth tens of thousands of troops."
Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi naturally knew how influential Yang Tinghe was. Although they knew that once Prince Ning accepted Yang Tinghe, their status would definitely be affected, they could not object.
In fact, compared with Prince Ning's great cause, the two of them combined may not be as good as Yang Tinghe.
Prince Ning looked at the two of them and chuckled: "Both gentlemen are my dear friends, and I will use Yang Tinghe in great importance, but Yang Tinghe's status in my heart is far inferior to that of these two gentlemen."
With King Ning so comforting, the grudge between the two disappeared, and Liu Yangzheng said: "Your Highness can recall those who are looking for Yang Tinghe."
Prince Ning couldn't help but be startled, and looked at Liu Yangzheng in confusion: "How can I find Yang Tinghe when I recall those people?"
Li Shishi glanced at Liu Yangzheng, stroked his beard and sneered: "We can clearly see what the current situation is. If Yang Tinghe can't understand it, he is in vain to be the chief minister of the cabinet and is not worthy of His Highness's attention.
Already."
Prince Ning was not a fool. When he heard what Li Shishi said, he immediately understood. He looked shocked and said, "Sir, what you mean is that even if I don't send people to find him, Yang Tinghe will take the initiative to come to see him due to the general situation."
This king?"
"Since Yang Tinghe sent Miss Liuli to see His Highness, it means that Yang Tinghe has noticed some of His Highness's actions. Based on Yang Tinghe's current situation, if he wants to appear openly and justly in front of the world, he can only change the world and rebuild the world, so
There are not many choices left for Yang Tinghe. It is impossible for him, Yang Tinghe, to rebel and it is impossible to succeed. Therefore, he can only help a vassal king like the prince to raise troops to overthrow the emperor and establish a new king under the banner of the Qing Dynasty."
Liu Yangzheng added on the side: "For someone as ambitious as His Highness, who among the vassal kings can be compared with the prince, so there are not many choices left for Yang Tinghe. As long as Yang Tinghe is not a fool, he will definitely come to see His Highness.
.”
Hearing what the two counselors Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi said, King Ning suddenly realized, nodded and said: "I have learned from you, these two gentlemen are worthy of being my equals!"
While he was talking, a slightly hoarse voice outside the study said: "His Royal Highness Prince Ning has been looking for me for a long time. I am here today. I would like to meet you!"
Suddenly they heard someone outside the study, Prince Ning and Liu Yangzheng, they were really startled. The three of them were horrified, and they heard Prince Ning say in a deep voice: "Who is coming?"
The person outside the study said: "Isn't Your Highness looking for me?"
Liu Yangzheng and Li Shishi, who were still in shock, looked at each other and heard Li Shishi say to Prince Ning: "Your Highness, the person coming from outside is most likely the former Chief Assistant Yang Tinghe that Your Highness is looking for!"
"What? It's Mr. Shi Zhai!"
Mr. Shi Zhai was the nickname of Yang Tinghe. When he heard that the visitor was most likely Yang Tinghe, Prince Ning showed a look of surprise on his face and strode forward. However, he was stopped by Li Shishi and said, "Your Highness, don't be anxious."
"Whether it is Mr. Shi Zhai or not, I will find out when I go and have a look."
Knowing that Li Shishi was worried that someone would do harm to him, Prince Ning nodded to Li Shishi and said, "In this case, Mr. Lao!"
Li Shishi stepped forward, pushed open the study door, and walked out slowly. He saw a figure dressed in green, standing under the big tree in the yard, with his hands slightly behind his back.
Yang Tinghe, who is covered in green clothes, has a bit of gray on his temples and has a vicissitudes of life. It is obvious that he has been wanted by the emperor since he left the capital. In addition, the whole family was killed by the emperor. This is naturally a big blow to Yang Tinghe.
, if you are still high-spirited, that would be strange.
The moment he saw Yang Tinghe, Li Shishi recognized Yang Tinghe at a glance. After all, Li Shishi himself was an official in the imperial court and had met Yang Tinghe several times in the past.
Although Yang Tinghe had changed a lot, Li Shishi was naturally able to recognize Yang Tinghe when he saw him.
After confirming that it was Yang Tinghe, Li Shishi showed some respect on his face, stepped forward, bowed his hands and said loudly: "Li Shishi, the imperial censor before the official, has met Mr. Yang Ge!"
Li Shishi deliberately raised his voice, obviously to show King Ning that the person coming was really Yang Tinghe.
At this moment, Prince Ning's loud laughter was heard from the study. As soon as the laughter came out, he quickly walked out of the study and strode towards Yang Tinghe. He said to Yang Tinghe with a look of surprise on his face: "
The lonely king has been looking forward to seeing Mr. Ge for a long time. It is a great blessing for me to meet Mr. Ge today!"
Prince Ning looked like a courteous corporal. He stepped forward and took Yang Tinghe's hand with great excitement. It meant that he had not taken a lunch break. Otherwise, he would have followed Cao Mengde's lead and walked backwards to greet him.
Yang Tinghe's face was also full of excitement and said: "I have heard that Prince Ning is a wise king of the generation. Today, when I see him, he is indeed worthy of his reputation."
After saying this, he was about to salute King Ning, but he was supported by King Ning and said: "Sir, please don't be too polite. A great sage like you is persecuted by eunuchs. The emperor is stupid and unethical, so that he is the leader of the country."
The talent of a prime minister is of no use to a hero, I feel so sorry for you."
With a slight cough, Li Shishi said to Prince Ning: "Your Highness, Mr. Shi Zhai must have come from afar. We should invite him into the room to talk."
Upon hearing this, Prince Ning looked apologetically and said to Yang Tinghe: "I was suddenly filled with joy when I met you, sir. Please forgive me for my rudeness!"
Yang Tinghe shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is so kind to me, and Tinghe is very grateful."
Pulling Yang Tinghe, Prince Ning said: "Sir, please go into the house with me and rest!"
Entering the study, King Ning personally prepared a chair for Yang Tinghe and waited until Yang Tinghe sat down before sitting down. He looked at Yang Tinghe with stern eyes and said: "When I learned that your husband was wanted by the emperor, I sent people to find your whereabouts, even if it offended the emperor."
, I will also ensure the safety of Mr.
