Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Bingzhou Chapter 272 Greeting(1/2)
Chapter 272 Welcome
"Uncle, I heard that my father has asked the crown prince brother to participate in the peace talks." On the official road from Shengzhou to Chang'an, there were hundreds of black knights guarding the three carriages. These people were coming from Shengzhou.
Changsun Wuji, King of Shu Lu Ke, and King of Yue Lu Chenglie presided over the sacrificial ceremony.
"That's right." Changsun Wuji frowned. He didn't expect that Lu Zhaoci would send Lu Chengzu to participate in the negotiations. What was he doing? It was to share the credit with Dou Yi, or to train His Royal Highness, but in any case, in the entire court,
Among them, when the ministers saw this situation, they would think that Lu Zhaoci had asked His Highness the Crown Prince to participate in political affairs, and the Crown Prince's position would be stabilized as a result.
"That's okay." Lu Chenglie breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The prince's brother is kind by nature. If he ascends to the throne, he will definitely be lenient to us brothers. I can still be me with peace of mind.
Prince and uncle, do you think so?"
"Hehe, if the prince succeeds to the throne, the Cui family will surely die." Changsun Wuji suddenly sneered: "Look, Master Cui Ren is so brave up there! He actually goes too far. This person has long made His Majesty dissatisfied.
." After saying that, he took out a letter from his arms. Lu Chenglie reached out and took it, only to see that it described in detail everything that happened in the Qinzongwu Palace that day. Every word and deed of the current Emperor Zhenguan, every move of the ministers,
There are records on it. Lu Chenglie was slightly shocked when he saw it, and looked at his uncle beside him in surprise. He did not expect that Changsun Wuji was far away from Chang'an, thousands of miles away from Chang'an, but actually everything in the capital was under his control.
, look, he even knows everything that happens in the Qinzongwu Hall, which shows that this person's energy is already shocking.
"You must know that today's emperor can be where he is today and unite the world. A large part of it is because of the existence of Jinyiwei, the world's number one intelligence organization." Changsun Wuji sighed: "If uncle wants to help you ascend to the throne of the emperor,
, you must understand the dynamics of everyone in the capital, and these people will be handed over to you in the future." Changsun Wuji did not hide anything, and honestly admitted that he had someone else staying in Chang'an City to deliver information to him.
Something like that. Lu Chenglie was a little devil and just nodded without saying a word.
"Although His Majesty's move is suspected of cultivating the crown prince, it is mostly for Dou Yi's affairs." Changsun Wuji said calmly: "Although Dou Yi may not be able to serve as an official in the future, he will not be unable to die. Your Majesty
This is also to protect Dou Yi, so the prince is involved. Even if there are mistakes, the prince can share some of the blame. You know, the prince may not necessarily be able to take the credit for this kind of thing."
"My father asked the prince and Chenglie to go to the general's palace to become their disciples. Uncle, when King Jing and Shu went to the general's palace before, they didn't seem to have issued an order!" Lu Chenglie suddenly thought of something and hurriedly
asked.
"Is there really such a thing?" Changsun Wuji suddenly stood up, with a hint of ecstasy on his fat face, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Lu Chenglie was surprised. Changsun
In his heart, Wuji will always be the kind of person who does not change his face even when facing a mountain collapse. His intelligence is also top-notch in the court. Even Cen Wenwen may not be his opponent. Of course, this is just Lu Chenglie's own opinion. Today, he saw Changsun Wuji.
Don't look like this, I can't help but be secretly curious.
"Uncle, is there any explanation for this?" Lu Chenglie asked curiously.
"Congratulations, Your Highness, Congratulations, Your Highness." Changsun Wuji stood up abruptly, cupped his hands and said.
"Uncle, I just worshiped the general as my teacher. Even the two brothers King Jing and King Shu also went to worship the general as their teacher. In the future, several brothers will do the same. They went to worship the military general as their teacher so that they can get used to the use of troops.
"If the general can live a long life, many people will definitely worship the general as their disciple in the future." Lu Chenglie did not take this matter to heart. With the examples of Lu Chengsi and Lu Ke, this
Everything seemed extremely natural. It did not attract the attention of the princes at all. Even Lu Chengzu and Lu Chenglie were still a little reluctant. At this time, when Lu Chenglie saw Changsun Wuji looking like this, he couldn't help but feel nervous...
"Your Majesty, your Majesty's actions are not understandable to ordinary people. We, the ministers, can only take a peek at what is happening." Changsun Wuji said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you know where your Majesty started his career?"
"My father has brilliant military exploits, sweeping the world, and extraordinary bravery. Naturally, he started his career with military exploits." Lu Chenglie said without thinking. Everyone in the royal family knows this. Emperors have strong soldiers and horses! I didn't see the current King Jing.
Is this the path he followed? King Jing was young, but he inherited Lu Zhaoci’s strength and gained a lot of popularity in martial arts. All of this was related to his father’s experience.
"Yes, His Majesty started his career with military merit. So he requires his heirs to at least be proficient in military strategy. Because only in this way, military power will not fall into the hands of others. At critical moments, the emperor can also be a general.
Personally put down the rebellion. More importantly, His Majesty the Emperor does not want his successor to be a weak emperor, so he allows the princes to enter martial arts and worship the generals as their disciples." Changsun Wuji's eyes were in awe.
Shining with a strange light, he looked at Lu Chenglie and said: "Your Highness, who is the general? Hehe, it can be said that after more than ten years of war, his military skills are not at all the same as those of your Majesty today. Your Majesty originally asked King Jing and King Shu to pay homage to the great general.
The general served as his teacher, but he did not issue an imperial edict. On the one hand, it was out of respect for the general, but on the other hand, he did not want the two princes to worship under the general's knees as his disciples. This is because His Majesty has never thought about it.
The country is left to these two princes. But this time it is different. His Majesty is about to issue an order for the prince and his highness to become apprentices to the general. Hehe, this is not the two of you going to become apprentices, but an imperial edict from your majesty.
The general has to agree even if he doesn't agree. He has to agree, Your Highness. From this we can see that Your Majesty cares deeply about His Highness! It can be imagined that His Highness's hope is far higher than that of the Crown Prince. Hehe, the so-called accompanying student. Have you seen it?
Is a prince accompanying you? Wei Chen guessed that this is His Majesty protecting His Highness. Your Highness is His Majesty’s choice for the crown prince. Look, the apprentice is accompanied by the prince, everyone’s eyes are directed at the prince, and the sacrifice is accompanied by the King of Shu.
, everyone’s eyes are pointed at the King of Shu. Your Majesty, your Majesty has worked so hard! In the future, when you go to the general, you must seriously study the general’s military tactics. You can’t slack off in the slightest. Otherwise, you will be sorry.
Your Majesty has worked so hard."
"Chenglie knows." Lu Chenglie's heart suddenly felt like it was shaking. He had never known that such a small matter as becoming a disciple could have so many mysteries. If it was according to Changsun Wuji's guess
He, Lu Chenglie, was the prince in the heart of the emperor. In front of him, the current prince Lu Chengzu, the king of Shu, Lu Ke, etc. were all his talismans, and they were the victims of kings fighting for their heirs.
"Are you a little confused in your mind?" Changsun Wuji was such a person. He could see Lu Chenglie's thoughts at a glance. There was a strange light on his face and he couldn't help but smile.
"There is a point. The prince brother and the king of Shu are both the sons of the father. Why does the father want it?" Lu Chenglie did not say any more, but the implication was very obvious. He was just surprised why his father wanted to
Do this.
"In the eyes of the emperor, the most important thing is the country, and all other love between children is false. Your Highness, you must remember this." Changsun Wuji looked at Lu Chenglie with a solemn face and said: "In the royal family, for
That chair, the so-called father, son and brother are all fake. But I am quite good today. Look, the two people he chose have one thing in common."
"Which point?" Lu Chenglie asked in surprise.
"Benevolence." Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "Whether it is you or His Highness the Crown Prince, no matter who succeeds to the throne, he will treat your Majesty's heirs with kindness. This is the most important thing. Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he is the leader of the world.
I hope not only to build a huge empire, but more importantly, to leave my name in the history, and I don’t want my heirs to kill each other, so I chose His Highness and the Crown Prince among the princes. Because you
Your nature determines that even if you ascend the throne, you will treat your brothers properly. Therefore, when I made the plan for His Highness, it was not to fight but to fight. Only in this way will His Majesty's eyes be diverted from other princes to
On Your Highness.”….
"I understand this Chenglie." Lu Chenglie's eyes flashed with light. He used to only want to be a Taiping Prince and live a happy life under the wings of the Tang Empire. He never thought that after the prince,
Even though he was so close to him, his superior father, that wise and mighty man, actually turned his attention to him.
"My lord, from now on you must treat His Highness the Crown Prince and the King of Shu with great respect. Only in this way can you win the Sacred Heart." Changsun Wuji warned again cautiously.
"This is natural." A smile suddenly appeared on Lu Chenglie's face, and he said with a smile: "Just look at how my father treats Uncle Liang Wang. Chenglie still knows this."
"That's very good." Changsun Wuji nodded.
"His Royal Highness, King of Yue, has arrived at Chunming Gate. His Majesty has sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to greet the two princes and the eldest grandson." At this time, the guard of the imperial guard next to him reported carefully from outside the car.
"Just an official from the Ministry of Rites?" Changsun Wuji asked in surprise.
"Exactly, only officials from the Ministry of Rites." Yu Linjun replied again.
"Oh!" Changsun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. Now he was more sure of Lu Zhaoci's thoughts. He was low-key, low-key, all for the sake of the Yue King Lu Chenglie, who might become a candidate for the crown prince.
"After all, we are also the ones representing the father to offer sacrifices. Why did we send a few miscellaneous fish to greet us?" The person who jumped out of the carriage in front was Lu Ke. At this moment, there was a hint of gloom on his face, coldly.
Looking at the dozen officials from the Ministry of Rites in front of Chunming Gate, he didn't understand. He was also an imperial envoy, so why would he send these people to greet him? It was obviously inconsistent with the etiquette system!
"Brother, at this time, my father is probably paying attention to the peace talks. You and I are still young, so there is no need for such troublesome things." At this time, Lu Chenglie walked over from behind, and I saw him straightening his clothes, looking like a little adult.
appearance.
"Wulang, what you said is wrong. We went to pay homage to the victims of Shengzhou on behalf of our father. We are also considered imperial envoys, but we were ignored by these guys." Lu Ke didn't take it seriously at first, but at this time, he already felt it in his heart.
Wei Wei is a little dissatisfied.
"Haha, Erlang, look who is coming to greet you." At this time, there was a noise at the city gate, and a horse rushed out. On top of the horse, a young knight with a heroic face let out bursts of laughter.
.
"Brother?" Lu Chenglie opened his mouth, his face full of surprise. The person who came was none other than King Jing Lu Chengsi. Unexpectedly, he came here at this time. Looking at his appearance, it was obvious that he came here specially.
The greeting to everyone was the same, which was quite surprising.
"I've met my brother."
"I have met His Highness King Jing."
Changsun Wuji, Lu Ke and others did not dare to neglect, and quickly greeted him. No matter what King Jing's impression was in the minds of the emperor today, he was still the eldest prince and the elder brother of everyone. This could be seen on the faces of these people.
Put on a smile.
"Okay, okay. No need!" Lu Chengsi laughed, jumped off the horse, his eyes lightly swept over everyone's faces, and finally landed on Lu Ke, and patted Lu Ke's shoulder with his right hand.
, said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for many days, Erlang has become a lot stronger again. Hey, after going out, everyone feels a lot more energetic. Father is really partial, why did he let you go out? I also begged you that day.
After a long time, my father didn’t agree!”
"Brother, you can't say that!" Lu Ke looked at Lu Chengsi with a cold face and said with a smile on his face: "Father treats us the same, we are all his sons, and father treats us the same.
How can it be unfair, son? Look, now you can make all the changes in martial arts, but I have to travel around the world!"...
Lu Chengsi's expression changed when he heard this, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face. He pointed at Lu Ke, then turned to Lu Chenglie and said with a smile: "Wu Lang, is Shengzhou fun? Lord Changsun
,Thank you for taking care of Xiaowu."
"Your Highness, you are welcome. This is what I should do." Changsun Wuji's face was still full of smiles. As for what he was thinking in his heart, only he knew.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." When Lu Chengsi was about to say something else, suddenly a high-pitched voice came from behind. His expression changed involuntarily. He looked deep into the Chunming Gate and saw a carriage approaching slowly.
It is solemn and majestic. It is obviously not an ordinary carriage. If it is just this, it is nothing. However, there are many guards around the carriage. More importantly, there are also Luan Jia. Although it is only half a width, it is
But it shows the difference. The only people who can use Luan Jia in the current court are the current Emperor Zhenguan and the Queen, but there is only one person who can use half of Luan Jia, that is the current Prince of the East Palace, Lu Chengzu. Once the Luan Jia comes out, it is extraordinary.
"I am waiting to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Countless people had already knelt down near Chunming Gate. The Crown Prince of the East Palace was given half a Luanjia, and coupled with the recent addition of the Sixth Prince of the East Palace, all this shows that the current East Palace has
He is as stable as a mountain. Behind him, he has the support of the most powerful people today, and the ministers have the status of monarch and minister among them.
"It's so majestic!" Lu Ke's eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm, but he still stood respectfully aside, while Changsun Wuji, who was behind him, gently pushed Lu Chenglie, his eyes facing the carriage.
After a quick glance, an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
To be continued...
