The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

Chapter 147 The Desire to Seize the Throne

Xuan Yi's face revealed an irrepressible excitement:

"My Lord, when will we enter the palace?

The brothers outside the city were almost going crazy! They were rubbing their hands in anticipation.

This morning, after receiving the order from you, Your Majesty, they were all in high spirits and ready for battle!"

Qian Wushang stared at Xuan Yi, his eyes revealing a depth and solemnity.

He spoke slowly, his voice low and firm: "You don't need to enter the palace!"

Hearing these words, the excitement and excitement on Xuanyi's face disappeared instantly.

Instead, his face was filled with confusion and puzzlement: "Not entering the palace? Why... why is that?"

He widened his eyes and stared straight at Qian Wushang.

Faced with Xuan Yi's question, Qian Wushang did not give a direct answer.

Instead, he asked in a very calm tone: "Why do you want to enter the palace?"

Xuan Yi became more and more confused and said as a matter of course: "Because Prince Yi raised an army to rebel, this is a great disaster for the country.

We should attack Prince Yi's army and protect the safety of the imperial city!"

He really couldn't understand why the prince would give such an order.

Qian Wushang suddenly asked, "Where is the prince?"

"Prince?" Xuan Yi was stunned and answered casually.

Before Qian Wushang could speak, Tianyi retorted, "No, the prince is in the palace."

Qian Wushang’s eyes darkened: “The Crown Prince and my second brother have been at loggerheads for so many years.

This time, his father is critically ill and the crown prince is serving as regent. This is undoubtedly a great opportunity for the crown prince.

How could he miss such a good opportunity? He would definitely do his best to suppress the power of his second brother.

Even for this king, the prince has taken advantage of this period of time to find out a lot of things.

The 100,000 soldiers and horses that my second brother possesses must no longer be a secret! "

At this moment, Di Er suddenly remembered that the prince had recently ordered them to pay close attention to the situation in Baibu Valley.

However, they unexpectedly discovered that in addition to their own side

The prince's men seemed to have noticed that Prince Yi had secretly taken control of the military power.

At that time, His Majesty suddenly vomited blood and fainted, and they had no time to report the matter to His Majesty.

Since then, the crown prince began to supervise the country and manage government affairs, but the prince was quite hesitant about how to deal with the matter.

Therefore, everyone could only continue to keep a close eye on Baibu Valley and not take any other actions for the time being.

According to common sense, if the prince knew the truth, since he was already in charge of supervising state affairs, he would be fully capable of directly solving the problem.

But what is puzzling is that the prince chose to keep his troops in place and did not even strengthen the vigilance.

It's all like...

It was as if he was intentionally waiting for Prince Yi to raise his army and start a rebellion. It could even be said that he was deliberately inducing Prince Yi to launch a mutiny!

Di Er's pupils trembled: "Prince, do you mean... the Crown Prince is deliberately waiting for Prince Yi to raise an army?"

Huang Yi, who had been silent all this time, looked into Qian Wushang's eyes with a deep gleam in his eyes.

He said in a deep voice: “Your Majesty, His Majesty fell into a coma again this morning, and the Crown Prince stayed in the palace again.

Now, Prince Yi's people say that the prince has poisoned and held the emperor hostage to control the government.

Under the pretext of capturing thieves and protecting the emperor, they stormed into the palace.

The Fengyi Guard cannot act rashly without the order of His Majesty, but Prince Yi has 20,000 troops entering the palace.

With the help of Fengyiwei, the chances of winning are definitely not small.

Even if the prince had been prepared and put up a strong resistance, the palace would probably have been a river of blood.

Both the Crown Prince and Prince Yi will inevitably suffer losses. "

Huang Yi spoke the last few words very slowly, as if testing the prince's thoughts.

Qian Wushang frowned slightly, waiting for Huang Yi's next words.

A sharp light flashed in Huang Yi's eyes. He clenched his teeth tightly, trying hard to restrain the surging emotions in his heart.

He lifted up his robe, knelt on the ground, stood straight, and had an expression of utmost respect.

With a slightly trembling voice, and a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal, he said:

“Your Majesty, now the Crown Prince and Prince Yi, these two tigers are fighting each other.

As the saying goes, 'When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured', and we can just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and wait for the right time to take action.

By then, we only need to lead the Thunder Breaking Army stationed outside the city into the palace to quell the rebellion..."

After hearing this, Xuan Yi suddenly raised his head after a moment, with excitement flashing in his eyes.

He agreed very much and looked at Qian Wushang excitedly: "Yes! Your Majesty, Huang Yi is right!

Isn’t this what others often say: when the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits? "

No one knew what Qian Wushang was thinking.

But people like Xuan Yi, who had followed him for many years, saw it all and were worried.

They witnessed with their own eyes that the prince suffered countless injustices and unfair treatments.

The prince was obviously brave and good at fighting. He fought bloody battles for Qianyao Kingdom many times and survived many life-threatening situations.

However, in the end, he did not receive the grace and respect he deserved.

On the other hand, look at the Crown Prince, Prince Yi, and the previous Prince Yu.

All you need to do is stay in Kyoto and enjoy the wealth and splendor.

Not only that, they even intensified their oppression and exclusion of their own prince.

Although everyone knew the truth and was indignant about it, they never dared to express their dissatisfaction openly.

However, everyone knows it tacitly that if the prince ever wants to seize the throne, they will definitely do their utmost to follow him until death!

Isn’t this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Not only Huang Yi and Xuan Yi had this idea, but Tian Yi, Huang Er, Di Yi and Di Er also held the same firm belief.

Even Ah Qing, who was usually silent and standing aside, thought so at this moment.

The prince in their minds should naturally ascend to the supreme throne of emperor.

After a long time, Qian Wushang stood up from his seat, walked to Huang Yi and others, and the two of them helped him up.

He swept his sharp eyes over everyone present and said in a deep voice, “You have followed me for many years, and I will not hide anything from you.

In the past, I really never thought about that position.

For me, it means protecting the people of Qianyao from being bullied by other countries.

Protecting Qianyao's territory from being invaded by barbarians is far more important than fighting for power and seeking the throne.

Now, I have other plans..."

When Huang Yi and others heard this, their eyes lit up and their faces were filled with excitement.

"Your Majesty! Do you agree..."

Qian Wushang raised his hand to stop Huang Yi from speaking, and said solemnly:

“This time, the prince thought he had tricked his second brother, but he didn’t know that he would also pay a heavy price.

Moreover, I think this matter is not that simple.

Xuanyi, the troops outside the city, stay put for the time being and follow my orders.

I will go to the palace in a moment and see how the situation develops!"

Although the Po Lei Army obeyed Qian Wushang's command, they did not have military tokens in their hands, so they could not act rashly unless it was absolutely necessary.

Moreover, he always felt that there was something he had overlooked in this matter.

Seeing the seriousness on Qian Wushang's face, Xuan Yi and others knew that the prince had his own arrangements.

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

Qian Wushang turned to Ah Qing and said, "Ah Qing, take your men to the Princess's Mansion to guard it, to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos!

Be sure to protect the safety of Princess Mingnuo."

Ah Qing raised his eyes and met Qian Wushang's eyes, his expression stern.

"Ah Qing, I want the princess to be unharmed!"

"Yes, Ah Qing understands!"
