Qin Shi: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 136 Reasons to Believe

The boss of Zuimenglou died, he was stabbed through the chest with a sword, this news spread throughout Daliang City the next day despite Zuimenglou's deliberate concealment.

On the contrary, the assassination incident that happened in the Prince's Mansion was silent, not even a trace of wind came out, but was there really no movement?

"Will Prince Zeng really believe that Lord Xinling sent someone to assassinate him?" Yingge who served breakfast in the inn asked Yang Ming curiously.

"Yes." Yang Ming picked up a pancake and said.

"I have heard some news before that there are many disagreements between Prince Zeng and Lord Xinling, but it has not yet reached the point of incompatibility. An assassin's assassination, and an assassination that actively exposed his own details, if Prince Zeng is a smart People should be able to see the clues." Yingge hesitated.

"That's just supposed to be, not inevitable. Prince Zeng is also a human being, and it is impossible for a human being to be absolutely rational. The special ability that can be called miraculous and miraculous is not a disguise technique. It is from personality to memory, martial arts. He is the real man in black. Faced with the sudden backstab of the 'his servants', Prince Zeng has only two choices. Either choose to believe it, or choose not to believe it. If he believes it, he will take the initiative to attack. What if he doesn't believe it? What happens if he doesn't believe it? Does he dare to bet on the price of his own misjudgment?" Yang Ming said.

"Although he doubts it, he has to believe it, because he doesn't know the special ability of killing, and he dare not not believe it, because he can't afford the price of misjudgment, and he doesn't want to not believe it, because he has long been at odds with Lord Xinling. And, it's just that he couldn't find a reason to make a move, but now he has enough reasons, now, he can contact his own people, and even ask Wei Wang to support him." Yang Ming continued.

"It's so complicated." Yingge shook her head and said with a headache.

"Think about it, you will encounter many such things in the future, but you need to get used to it earlier." Yang Ming reminded.

Parrot song, Yang Ming wants to train her to be his assistant in the net, so naturally he has to train her well.

In the Prince's Mansion, Wei Yong was invited here early in the morning by the people of the Prince's Mansion.

"Prince, who is this?" Wei Yong, who came to the Prince's mansion, saw the pale Prince Zeng, and vaguely had a bad guess.

"I met an assassin last night and suffered a little injury, but I am alone." Prince Zeng asked his confidants to move a cushion for Wei Yong.

"Who dares to assassinate the prince after eating the bear's heart?" Wei Yong asked cautiously.

"There are many people in Daliang City, and there are also many courageous people, but there are not many courageous and resourceful people." Prince Zeng said coldly.

Wei Yong's heart sank when he heard the words, because in Daliang City, there are really not many people who have the courage and ability to assassinate the prince of a country. Knowing such a secret may not be a good thing for him .

Fortunately, Wei Yong is a real old fox. Although the storm has already set off in his heart, he is still calm on the surface, and Prince Zeng can't see anything.

"Although Gu suffered a little injury at the hands of that assassin, it was not completely useless. In order to get close to Gu, the assassin revealed an extremely important piece of news." The crown prince added.

"What news?" Wei Yong asked cooperatively.

"Father is sick, Lord Xinling has taken action." The crown prince Zeng said.

"Your Majesty, Lord Xinling?" Wei Yong's eyes were fixed, and it was hard to hide his true emotions when he looked at Prince Zeng.

If there is any accident for the King of Wei, the throne is vacant, between the Crown Prince and Lord Xinling?
Back then Lord Xinling was not destined for the throne, the big reason was that he was too young to compete with his elder brother, but now Lord Xinling is different, if he wants to compete with Prince Zeng, Prince Zeng is really It may not be possible to win, even if he is the prince.

"The assassin is a member of Lord Xinling, does Lord Wei know what this means?" the crown prince added.

"I know, what does His Royal Highness mean?" Wei Yong asked, although he had almost guessed the purpose of Prince Zeng's coming, but he would not let go so quickly if he wanted to get enough things.

"I need your help, Mr. Wei." The prince added.

"Prince, although I have the heart to help, I don't have much power in my hands." Wei Yong wondered.

"If Mr. Wei can help Gu to ascend to the throne, Mr. Wei must be the general." The prince added that he did not recruit Wei Yong because he was in a hurry, but because he had sufficient consideration.

Wei Yong, in the state of Wei, is a rare person with both civil and military skills, and the power in his hands is not small, and the forces connected in series around him are even more intertwined. More importantly, Wei Yong has always coveted military power, but Lord Xinling and Zhu Hai are blocking it. out of his way.

"His Royal Highness, I am not someone who is greedy for power and position." Wei Yong said righteously.

"Your Majesty Wei's character, I still know it alone, but Wei Wuzu is the important weapon for our country to build the country, and it cannot be handed over to people like Lord Xinling and Zhu Hai who put their own interests above the interests of the country. , this is not for personal power and position, but for the safety of Wei State." Prince Zeng said solemnly.

"This?" Wei Yong showed hesitation.

"For the sake of Wei, Lord Wei please help me." Prince Zengbai asked.

"His Royal Highness, you are an old man of Zhesha, but you also know that although the old man has the name of Sikong, the power in his hands is really limited. How can he fight against Lord Xinling? Besides, Lord Xinling is famous all over the world. For his own reputation, would such a person really be the one who seeks to usurp the throne?" Wei Yong still did not let go.

"My lord Wei, although Gu already has a concubine, she has been out of business since she got married. Now this is not a big problem. If Gu ascends the throne, this problem will involve the country's affairs." Prince Zeng saw Wei Yong still didn't take the bait, so he could only increase his bargaining chips.

"What does His Royal Highness mean?" Wei Yong was more moved.

"The crown princess is the daughter of Zhao's clan. It is related to the diplomatic relations between Wei and Zhao. It should not be touched lightly. However, if Gu is on the throne, she can accept three wives. I heard that Wei's daughter is only twenty-nine years old, and she is suitable for marriage. If Mr. Wei is willing, at that time, he will take the daughter of Mr. Wei as his wife, and if he can give birth to an heir, he will be crowned prince." Prince Zeng said as he gave his last bargaining chip.

"Although being an enemy of Lord Xinling, I am overthinking myself, but for Wei Guo, I am willing to give it a try." Wei Yong relented, he had already won the greatest benefit for himself, so naturally he had no reason to make a fuss.

"I will never break my promises." Prince Zeng said solemnly.

Wei Yong returned to the mansion with a lot of worries. Although the conditions proposed by Prince Zeng were really tempting, but because they were too tempting, there would be more difficulties involved. Lord Xinling's power in Wei State is hard to describe. It is not just the power on the surface, but also represents a kind of human heart.

Lord Xinling's influence is really too great, there are too many people who are willing to be used by him, from important court officials to traffickers, there is no shortage of such people.

The power in the court is clear, and it's okay to really fight against it, but the dark power outside the court is a big problem. Can it deal with those strange people?
Wei Yong frowns for a while, and as time goes by, Wei Yong's frown gradually unfolds, and a figure can't help appearing in his mind: Luowang.

Maybe work?

Wei Yong thought about it, and the emotion in his heart became deeper and deeper, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible. There were so many masters in the net, even if the whole country of Wei had unanimously attacked him before, they had never completely wiped out the net. Cooperating with him is also a sharp weapon against Lord Xinling.

It's just that Luo Wang is also the one who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't cast eagles. If they can't come up with enough conditions to make them tempted, please don't let them make a move.

Wei Yong thought for a while, hesitated.

During the period when Wei Yong returned to the mansion, Crown Prince Zeng also came to Wei Palace. He wanted to deal with Lord Xinling. Also essential.

Seeing the queen of Wei, Prince Zeng observed more cautiously. Although King Wei didn't seem to have changed, Prince Zeng didn't know if it was because of his preconceived ideas, but he still saw a trace of abnormality.

For example, Lord Longyang, who served King Wei, had a gloomy look on his beautiful brows like a girl.

"Mr. Xinling is not that kind of person." After Prince Zeng explained his intentions, King Wei directly denied Prince Zeng's speculation about Lord Xinling.

"Father, my confidant has been in the mansion for several years, but he suddenly jumped back. Except for Lord Xinling, I really can't think of anyone else who can have such great power." Prince Zeng never expected, came to ask for help My own will get such a sentence.

"Although Mr. Xinling has many problems, he still doesn't know how to usurp the throne. Have you ever thought about why it can't be the enemy's death plan?" Wei Wang asked back.

"Father, Mr. Xinling is not that simple. Have you forgotten what happened back then?" Prince Zeng was a little anxious.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, go back and recuperate well." Wei Wang said resolutely.

For a moment, Prince Zeng felt a coldness in his heart, followed by great fear.

What was his father, King Wei, thinking?Could it be that he abandoned him?
"Yes." Prince Zeng, whose heart was dominated by inexplicable fear, replied cautiously, and a certain idea in his heart became more determined.

Seeing the back of Prince Zeng leaving, King Wei's face turned pale instantly. He really had a serious problem with his body, and it was difficult to survive this year. He had to make arrangements for many things in advance.

For example, regarding the matter of Lord Xinling Wei Wuji, King Wei has too many reasons to be on guard against his younger brother, and sometimes it is not enough to dispel all doubts by saying that he is an honest man.

In the past, he was only afraid of his younger brother Wei Wuji, but after the incident of stealing amulets to save Zhao, this fear has become a real thing.

His own harem was infiltrated and his army was easily controlled by others. This was absolutely intolerable for a king.

Thinking of my favorite concubine who was willing to use her life to steal the soldier talisman for Wei Wuji, thinking of the confidant general who was killed, thinking of Jin Bi's death, Wei Guo had no generals available, and was constantly bullied by Qin State, so that I had to put down my face It was difficult for King Wei to control the anger in his heart when he asked for help.

Especially now that he doesn't have much time, he can't guarantee whether his son is capable of suppressing Wei Wuji, he doesn't have enough confidence himself, let alone his son.

Some things are better done by the widow. Good brother, going with the widow is also a good solution for you. The widow can’t leave you to the prince, no matter whether the assassination this time is yours or not. I can't leave you to the prince, he can't hold you down.

Maybe you are not wrong, but the widow is not wrong either, the fault is that you have the ability to subvert the throne.

This infamy is still to be borne by the widow. Before leaving, the widow will leave the crown prince with a clean state of Wei.King Wei pondered, his face became paler and paler.
