Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 361 Willing to serve His Royal Highness the King of Chu
Not long ago, Yang Gongren was overjoyed when he received a positive reply from the King of Chu. After a long talk with the King of Chu all night, he personally came forward to win over Chen Shuda according to the request of the King of Chu.

He knew exactly where Chen Shuda's weakness was.

"Chen Xiang, the person who can cure you is not me, but the king of Chu."

King of Chu?

Chen Shuda was taken aback, a little puzzled, "What do you have to do with the King of Chu?"

Yang Gongren said: "Chen Xiang, in fact, you know everything. Right now King Qin's death is unclear, and the crown prince will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue and completely liquidate the old man in the Qin Palace. Now he doesn't do anything now, just because the matter has not yet completely passed, plus He was also banned in the mansion by the sage, so he couldn't interfere in the government affairs, so he didn't do anything.

A year later, when he returned to court, he would definitely deal with Chen Xiang.I know that Chen Xiang is not afraid of life and death, but Chen Xiang, you have to think about your children.With the ruthlessness of the Crown Prince and King Qi, I don't need to say more about what will happen to them in the future. "

Hearing this, Chen Shuda's face was so gloomy that he could drip water.Thinking of Li Yuanji as a beast, Chen Shuda felt fearful while being angry.

If the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, his son and daughter-in-law may be tortured to death by King Qi.

Thinking of this, Chen Shuda's sickly face showed solemnity, and he clasped his fists and said, "Please speak clearly, Xiang Yang."

As Yang Gongren said, he himself is not afraid of death, but he is really afraid that his family will be implicated.It's easy for the prince to say that at most he will not need his sons to be officials when he ascends the throne in the future.But he didn't dare to bet against that beast of King Qi.

"I just said that it is not me who can cure you, but the king of Chu."

"Prince Chu?" Chen Shuda frowned, and said, "Even if the King of Chu is willing to help, but the crown prince will ascend the throne in the future, I'm afraid he will be powerless."

Speaking of this, Chen Shuda saw Yang Gongren's face that looked like a smile but not a smile.

He seemed to understand something, and immediately he lost his voice: "The king of Chu wants to fight."

"Speak carefully, Prime Minister Chen." Yang Gongren interrupted him.

Chen Shuda stared, suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked, "The king of Chu is going to seize the heir?"

Yang Gongren explained with a wry smile: "The King of Chu himself is not willing to fight, but the death of the King of Qin is unclear, and the King of Chu is afraid."

Hearing this, Chen Shuda believed it instantly.

"That's right, that's right. The King of Chu has a heavy army in his hands, and he's still a general with great strategies. As a prince, he will never let the King of Chu go."

Yes, how could he have forgotten King Chu.The king of Qin has learned from the past, and it is impossible for the king of Chu not to take precautions.

The prince and King Qi hate him to the bone. Once the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will die without a place to bury him.He is different from Dou Kang, there is a Dou family behind Dou Kang who can save Dou Kang's life, but he has no family that can make Li Jiancheng afraid.

If the king of Chu is willing to fight, he supports the king of Chu to take a gamble. If he succeeds, he can not only save his family's life, but also avenge the king of Qin, killing two birds with one stone!
However, he did not immediately agree, but said: "Yang Xiang, even if you and I support the King of Chu, nothing will happen. In this world, it depends on the attitude of the aristocratic family."

As an important minister of the Tang Dynasty, Chen Shuda knew very well who constituted the essence of Li Tang's regime structure.

"Hongnong Yang, I can make the decision."

"No." Chen Shuda shook his head, "Not enough."

"Jingzhao Du, Jingzhao Webster."

"not enough."

Yang Gongren smiled and said: "Previously, Prime Minister Chen was worried about the lack of food in the court. Let me tell Prime Minister Chen the latest news. Not long ago, Minister of the Ministry of Officials Dugu Sheng offered food to His Majesty, willing to help the King of Chu to reward the soldiers of the three armies."

Hearing this, Chen Shuda's pupils shrank.

"Dugu"

In his opinion, neither the Hongnong Yang family, the Jingzhao Du family, nor the Jingzhao Wei family can shake the position of the Eastern Palace.After all, behind the prince is the support of the Wang family of Taiyuan, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Lu family of Fanyang.

Coupled with the Dou family who is about to surrender, the King of Chu has no advantage at all in terms of aristocratic families.

But it would be different if Dugu supported the King of Chu.

"How?" Yang Gongren asked with a smile.

Chen Shuda took a deep breath and bowed his hands.

"Willing to serve His Highness the King of Chu."

He has no way out, the crown prince and King Qi will not let him go, King Chu is his last chance.

"With the help of Chen Xiang, the king of Chu is like a tiger with wings!"

A few days later, Chen Shuda miraculously recovered from his illness and returned to the Political Affairs Hall to handle government affairs.

Different people have different opinions on what kind of disease he has.Ordinary courtiers took it for granted that Chen Xiang should be ill.

Pei Ji thought that Chen Shuda had a heart disease, and he was also afraid of the prince's revenge.

"Chen Xiang, your body is recovering, and you have to rest well." He said to Chen Shuda with a smile.

Chen Shuda bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. Pei, for your concern. I'm fine now. I'm busy with government affairs. As the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, I should assist Your Majesty in governing the government."

Pei Ji chuckled, took the memorial and walked aside to deal with it.

Seeing the change in Chen Shuda's whole person, Pei Ju couldn't help but secretly wonder.He has always been good at observing people. When Chen Shuda left the Zhengshitang a few days ago, his face was clearly gloomy. Why does he seem to have regained his confidence now?
At this moment, Yang Gongren took the documents and walked to Chen Shuda's side, and the two chatted and laughed happily.

Pei Ju frowned slightly, when did Yang Gongren and Chen Shuda have such a good relationship?
When he was wondering, the king of Chu stepped into the political affairs hall.

"I have seen Your Highness." Everyone hurriedly asked.

Li Zhiyun cupped his hands and bowed, "I have seen several Xiangguo."

After the ceremony, he looked at Chen Shuda, "Chen Xiang, I have something to discuss with you about the compensation for the soldiers of the three armies."

"Yes." Chen Shuda walked over with a smile.

Seeing this, Pei Ju's pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes rolled quickly on Li Zhiyun, Yang Gongren, and Chen Shuda.

After a while, he sat down slowly, his face slightly stiff.

He silently told himself, take it slow and analyze it.

Regarding the control of details, Pei Ju thought he had unique insights, which was a skill he had honed when he was an envoy to the Turks and managed the Western Regions.In addition, with the experience of serving the emperors of the Sui Dynasty for two generations, Pei Ju paid more attention to details than ordinary people.

His intuition told him that there was something wrong with what he saw today!

On the other side, Li Zhiyun led Chen Shuda into the inner room.The political affairs hall is also divided into inner and outer rooms.The prime ministers deal with government affairs in the outer room. When encountering undecidable matters, or important military and state affairs, they will go into the inner room with memorials and report to the emperor.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the emperor handles government affairs with the ministers in the outer room.When the prince supervised the country, the prince sat in the outer room.

Now that the prince is confined in the East Palace, the emperor is saddened by the death of King Qin, and the Political Affairs Hall is currently under the jurisdiction of Li Zhiyun.

This is also Li Yuan's careful thinking. He wants to slowly cultivate Li Zhiyun's ability to handle government affairs.Of course, there may also be an ambitious plan that inspired Li Zhiyun.

"Chen Xiang, are you feeling better recently?" Li Zhiyun asked with a smile.

Chen Shuda said: "Your Highness, don't worry, before the big event is completed, the veteran will definitely not fall down."

Li Zhiyun nodded.

Chen Shuda's side went smoothly unexpectedly, which made Li Zhiyun feel quite comfortable.When Yang Gongren told him that Chen Shuda was settled, Li Zhiyun still couldn't believe it. Later, he had a deep chat with Chen Shuda, and he finally took Chen Shuda down.

Of course, he also knew that Chen Shuda had to lean towards him.

After all, King Qi's hatred for Chen Shuda is not clear to ordinary people.

"That's very good, so that this king can rest assured to bother Chen Xiang."

"Haha, Your Highness has an order, and the veteran will do his best to help." Chen Shuda replied with a smile.

Next, it is naturally boring to discuss the issue of compensation and rewards for the soldiers of the three armed forces.
