The fourth prince didn't realize that the old emperor was completely disappointed in him, and he was still trying to defend himself.
"Father, the Yuanfeng Kingdom's army is now outside the city. We want us to take the initiative to defeat them. Then, the whole outside of the pass will be ours. If we let them retreat to the country, then we want to completely defeat them." It will be very difficult for them." The fourth prince said a little excitedly.
The fourth prince completely believed the staff's analysis, and he actually thought so in his heart. Seeing that the old emperor didn't believe him and didn't give him a chance to take the initiative, he was very excited.
However, after hearing what he said, the old emperor just waved his hands expressionlessly and said, "Go down, I'm going to rest."
The fourth prince, who was still excited and thought that the old emperor would be persuaded by him, suddenly froze. What does this mean? Why did you drive away all of a sudden? Moreover, it was still the same as the previous night, with the intention of directing him to leave.
"Father" The fourth prince was still not reconciled, and wanted to explain.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Go down!" The old emperor suddenly raised his voice and said loudly.
The fourth prince shivered in fright, his face was a little frightened, after all, the old emperor had been emperor for many years, and his aura was not comparable to that of ordinary people, the fourth prince was still afraid of him in his heart.
However, after reacting, the fourth prince became even more angry.
I am so good now that I am the most powerful and powerful person in the entire Fengjue country except for the old emperor. However, the old emperor has no respect for him at all. There is no difference between training himself and those eunuchs and court ladies. Let the fourth prince feel humiliated.
The fourth prince was furious, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. Even under the influence of the old emperor's aura, his feet moved unconsciously, and he turned and walked out of the hall.
After the fourth prince realized his behavior, he felt even more humiliated, but he didn't have the courage to stop.
After the fourth prince left, the old emperor called General Yan who he had arranged at the gate of the city, and told him to keep an eye on the gate of the city for the past few days, and not to give the fourth prince a chance to leave the city.
That General Yan will naturally not disobey the order of the old emperor. Although he has taken refuge in the tenth prince, he is still the old emperor's man. Moreover, even from the perspective of the tenth prince, it is impossible for him to Make the fourth prince comfortable.
"Old thief! Old man! Old thing!"
After the fourth prince returned to his residence, he vented loudly. All the bottles and cans in the room were smashed by him. However, the anger in his heart still could not be completely dispelled.
The fourth prince also knew in his heart that the old emperor didn't trust him now. As long as the old emperor was around for a day, he wouldn't be able to command the army comfortably. The old emperor was a mountain on his head, making him unable to breathe.
After venting a lot, the fourth prince had someone call his most trusted aide, and told him what happened when he met the old emperor.
"Your Highness, this matter is a bit difficult." The staff member said after hearing the fourth prince's narration: "Although you are the commander of those armies now, many people in those armies accepted the order because of His Majesty's order." Your command, in fact, in their hearts, they still only recognize His Majesty."
"I know." The fourth prince said with an ugly face.
After all, he was competing with the eldest prince, and he didn't have much contact with the army before, so naturally he didn't have any direct troops. Although some generals took refuge in him during the previous competition, but now there are more generals in the city. They chose themselves before, and the reason why they obeyed their commands now was entirely because of the old emperor's orders. If their own orders violated the old emperor's orders, I believe those people would stand by the old emperor's side without hesitation.
This kind of situation made the fourth prince very upset, but there was no good solution.
"Your Highness, your subordinates believe that there may be other princes who have spoken ill of His Majesty in front of His Majesty and provoked the relationship between His Majesty and His Highness. Therefore, His Majesty now has some distrust of His Highness. The possibility of removing His Highness." said the aide.
"Then what should we do?" The fourth prince was a little panicked. He finally got to this position. He is already ahead of the other princes. If he is withdrawn, then this lead will be lost. Even, the one who will replace him The prince will overtake him. At that time, it will be very difficult for him to become the prince and ascend the throne in the future.
"We have to do something." Said the aide.
"What are you doing?" the fourth prince asked.
"Naturally, the facts are used to prove that what you said, Your Highness, is correct," said the aide.
"how to prove?"
"Go out of the city and defeat Yuanfeng's army!" The staff member said: "As long as we defeat Yuanfeng's army, it will naturally prove that what His Highness said before is correct. At that time, even if there are other It is useless for the prince to slander His Highness in front of His Majesty."
"However, Father has planted an army at the gate of the city. They obeyed Father's order, and they will not let us leave the city." The fourth prince said.
Of course, the fourth prince also wants to lead the army out of the city, just like this staff member said, as long as he leads the team to defeat the Yuanfeng country's army, then it can be proved that what he said before is correct, and his status will be at that time. It is completely stable, and there is no need to fear the slander of other princes.
However, it is not so easy to get out of the city, because now the city gate is not under his control, but controlled by someone arranged by the old emperor, and the old emperor does not allow him to leave the city, how can he get out?
"The subordinates naturally know that it is not easy for us to go out." The staff member said, with a cold light in his eyes, he continued: "However, at the critical moment, it is natural to use extraordinary measures, otherwise, His Highness will wait to be removed from the military power." .¡±
"Extreme means?" The fourth prince looked at each other and asked, "How?"
"Trap and kill that General Yan, and control the city gate," said the aide.
"Trapping?!" The fourth prince was taken aback, and said, "That's someone sent by my father. I just baited him like that. If my father finds out, he will definitely be angry."
In his heart, the fourth prince was still afraid of the old emperor, even though he had scolded him just now, but if he really disobeyed the order of the other party, he still dared not.
"We can make an excuse, for example, he secretly communicated with the army of Yuanfeng Kingdom outside the city. Anyway, when he dies, no one will defend himself," said the aide. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
