Chapter 692: The contest between life and death

Zhao Xun said with a worried look: "Behind the King of Chu is the Yang family. He now holds 30,000 troops and is in charge of Luojing. His position is important. He has soldiers and horses in his hand. It is too threatening. There is also the winged king Zhao He. His foundation in Hedong is too deep. Although the father of the previous generation attacked him severely, causing his power in Hedong to collapse, this may be just the surface. No one knows how many forces there are still in secret."

Lu Bojiang said: "No wonder Your Highness seems to be dealing with political affairs normally these days, but he rarely summons officials to the East Palace. So that's the case."

Zhao Xun said in a deep voice: "There are too many people and various sects such as the Yang family and the Wing King must have arranged spies around me. If there are too many people, the news about the emperor may be spread. At that time, the King of Chu, the Wing King and the Wing King will definitely not sit still and wait for death. The Lone is not ready yet, so it will take time."

Lu Bojiang asked softly: "Who knows the news of the emperor's coma?"

"Li Zhongquan, Qian Mingdu, Zou Fuxian..."

During the extraordinary period, he was very cautious. Zhao Xun told the news that Zhao Zhi fell into a coma, no more than ten people, all of whom were closest to and trusted the most.

"Your Highness thinks he has already discussed with Li Zhongquan and others, and I don't know what plans are?"

"End the war in Henan as soon as possible. In this way, the King of Chu will have no excuse to continue to stay in Luojing. Then he dispatched Huang Qian to return to Hedong quickly. With him in Hedong, the King of Wings's soldiers and horses cannot move. When these two things are done, if the emperor has not yet... the lonely general declares the abdication edict in the name of the emperor..."

Lu Bojiang sneered: "If I guess well, Li Zhongquan and others would recommend that Your Highness calmly, calmly and calmly, and try to delay time. Then they secretly contacted and controlled the imperial guards. Once the above matters were completed, they would immediately lead troops into the city to help Your Highness ascend the throne successfully?"

Zhao Xun nodded: "That's exactly what it is."

Lu Bojiang shook his head and said firmly: "If Your Highness acts with this, it will definitely be a big mistake and it will be too late to regret it."

Zhao Xun looked shocked when he heard this and asked anxiously: "What does this mean? I feel that it is safe to act like this."

Lu Bojiang said in a deep voice: "The change of imperial power is the most dangerous thing. How can there be a foolproof statement? If you are not careful, you will lose everything. As the crown prince of the country, your highness is a person who inherits the throne and is justified. Why do you have to do that fake imperial edict? This matter will spread one day. At that time, there will be rumors all over the world. How will your highness deal with it? How should you face the people of the world?"

After hearing Lu Bojiang's words, Zhao Xun remained silent. He knew something that Lu Bojiang was not easy to say. Although Zhao Zhi was in a coma, he did not die. Once he falsely passed the imperial edict, he immediately ascended the throne to the emperor. This is a deception of the son of man, a filial piety, and an unkind and unrighteous act. What qualifications are such a person qualified to be an emperor?

Moreover, even if his plan is successful, there is another possibility. The imperial physician said that it is difficult for Zhao Zhi to wake up again, not that he will never wake up. If Zhao Zhi suddenly wakes up in the future and he has already faked the imperial edict to become the emperor, how should he face Zhao Zhi then? If Zhao Zhi is angry and makes any extreme actions, will he still kill his father?

Thinking of this, Zhao Xun suddenly came to his senses, and cold sweat suddenly emerged. He took Lu Bojiang's hand and said gratefully: "If it weren't for your good advice, I would have almost made a big mistake."

After saying that, Zhao Xun let go of his hand and said with some concern: "You are right, but the father will wake up. I am afraid that he will not be able to control the overall situation when he is the prince!"

Lu Bojiang shook his head and said, "Your Highness, you think about the problem too simply. Even if you inherit the throne immediately and become the emperor, and oppose your power, will they bow down and surrender?"

Zhao Xun remained silent.

Lu Baijiang asked again: "I dare to ask, if Your Highness takes up the throne, how will you deal with King Wing and King Chu?"

Zhao Xun said in a quiet voice: "The King of Chu and King of Wings have many different intentions and always have great hostility towards Gu. After Gu succeeded to the throne, he could not do the killing of brothers and brothers, but he would not let the two go out and disrupt the stability of the country."

Your Highness’s kindness is a blessing for the world.”

Zhao Xun said that, but Lu Baijiang could conclude that the first thing Zhao Xun had to do after he ascended the throne was probably to raise the butcher knife to aim it at the King of Chu and the King of Wings. As for the officials who were clinging to the two, there might be a glimmer of hope.

Lu Bojiang bowed and praised Zhao Xun, and then said, "Your Highness's benevolence and righteousness, the King of Chu and the King of Wings, may not feel it. They only feel that once Your Highness succeeds to the throne, they will have no way to survive. Therefore, with this mentality, they will never sit still and wait for death. They will definitely make a desperate bet and make a final counterattack."

Zhao Xun looked at Lu Bojiang without saying anything, signaling him to continue speaking.

Lu Bojiang adjusted his thoughts and continued: "Li Zhongquan and others' suggestions are the safest way, but they are inappropriate and give others a chance."

Zhao Xun said disdainfully: "Feng Jing is under the control of the Lord. The King of Chu runs fast, and there is still a Wing King left, what other chance can there be?"

Lu Bojiang said indifferently: "Since there is no chance, why should the Wing King stay in Fengjing? He can go to Hedong, which is his base camp. As long as he goes there, even if His Highness succeeds to the throne as emperor, what can he do to him in a short time? Since the Wing King chooses to stay, it proves that he has not given up and he still has the strength to fight back."

Zhao Xun frowned and said nothing. I have to say that Lu Bojiang said something. With Zhao Zhi's strong support, Feng Jing's military power was already in his own hands. The civil servants in the court also had the upper hand. Under such circumstances, the Wing King did not choose to leave. What does this mean? Does the Wing King feel that he would let him go after he ascended the throne? Obviously it is impossible. Since it is impossible, why should he stay?

"And, Your Highness thought about one that might not have?"

“What is possible?”

"The news that the emperor is in a coma may be... known to the Wing King."

“This is impossible.”

Zhao Xun shook his head: "The emperor seems to be normal, but in fact he has been completely controlled by Mr. Mu. Mr. Mu has expressed allegiance to Gu and will do his best to help Gu succeed to the throne."

Lu Bojiang said with a distant look: "I just said that if the Wing King had really learned the news, what did Your Highness think he would do?"
