The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 334 King Chu’s Warning

In the morning, the prince suggested to the emperor that King Wei assist King Jing in going to Jinling to take charge of the imperial examination.

King Jing immediately came out and said that he did not need anyone's help.He knew in his heart that the purpose of the prince sending King Wei to assist him was to monitor him, and more importantly to sabotage his affairs.He would never allow Lao Ba to ruin his good deeds.

The prince pretended to be a good brother and kindly persuaded King Jing, saying that he was going to Jinling alone to work. As an elder brother, he was worried, so he asked King Wei to accompany him.He also said that with the help of King Wei, he could do things smoothly in Jinling.

After hearing what the prince said, King Jing sneered disdainfully, and then spoke unceremoniously about his disdain and disparaging words about King Wei.

When the prince heard what King Jing said about King Wei, he looked dissatisfied and lectured King Jing.

King Wei himself did not speak to refute King Jing's words. He lowered his head and did not say a word.

King Jing ignored the prince and told the emperor that he could do good things by going to Jinling alone and did not need anyone's help.

When King Dai saw that King Jing and the prince were arguing, he helped King Jing to speak for fear that the world would be peaceful.He said that King Jing was the biological brother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he should believe in his biological brother's abilities.He also put in good words for King Jing, so that the emperor could rest assured that King Jing would go to Jinling alone to preside over the imperial examination.

When the prince saw that King Dai was inciting him and King Jing, he told King Dai not to sow discord with a cold face.The reason why he asked King Wei to assist King Jing was mainly because he was worried about King Jing.

Seeing that the king and the prince were about to quarrel again, the emperor interrupted them with a straight face.

He took a deep look at King Wei, and immediately agreed to let King Wei assist King Jing, and followed King Jing to Jinling.

King Jing glared at the prince hatefully, and then reluctantly accepted King Wei's offer to assist him.

When the emperor saw that the ministers had nothing to report, he asked Sun Kui to announce his resignation.

After the emperor left, King Jing walked up to the prince and said with an unhappy face that he would never let the prince get his wish.The prince just smiled at this and gently told King Jing and King Wei to get along well.

King Jing glared at the prince fiercely, then at King Wei, and said, "We'll see."

Before King Jing came of age and was crowned the king, he was still very polite to his brother the prince on the surface. But since he came of age and was crowned the prince, he was too lazy to pretend anymore and unabashedly showed his dissatisfaction with his brother the prince. Showing his ambition for the position of prince.

"Brother, seeing how Seventh Brother is doing, he really wants Jinling to hold the imperial examination smoothly." King Wei walked beside the prince and whispered, "Seventh Brother really wants to ruin our affairs."

The prince's eyes were full of coldness when he thought about King Jing contradicting him in the court.He said in a deep voice: "He can't make any waves, but you still have to keep an eye on him."

"Brother, don't worry, I will keep an eye on Brother Seven and never let him ruin our affairs." King Wei assured the prince.

The prince suddenly thought of something. He took out a token from his arms and handed it to King Wei. He gently warned King Wei: "With this token, the people in Jinling will obey your orders."

King Wei reached out to take the token and put it in his arms.

"With this token, it will be easier for you to do things in Jinling." The prince warned King Wei again, "The main purpose of your trip to Jinling this time is not to keep an eye on your seventh brother, but to go to Pengcheng to investigate the matter. ?"

King Wei nodded seriously and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will definitely find out the traitor in Pengcheng."

The prince raised his hand and patted King Wei on the shoulder, "Be careful on the road." After saying that, he remembered King Jing's attitude towards King Wei just now, and couldn't help but feel worried, "If you go to Jinling with your seventh brother, he will definitely make things difficult for you. …”

Before he finished speaking, he heard King Wei say: "Brother, don't worry, I will tolerate Brother Seven."

"Who told you to give in to him?" As the elder brother, the prince not only couldn't argue with King Jing, but also had to tolerate King Jing. "He is a prince, and you are a prince too. You have the same status. No one is superior or inferior. If he makes things difficult for you, you don't have to give in to him. You can do whatever you want."

King Wei didn't expect the prince to say that, and there was a look of surprise on his face.

"Ah, brother, are you serious?"

The prince lowered his voice and said to King Wei: "Please help me teach him a lesson. Don't be merciful."

King Wei instantly understood what the prince meant, smiled meaningfully and said, "I understand, brother."

The prince patted King Wei on the shoulder again, "Hurry back and prepare."

"Brother, I'll go first."

As soon as King Wei walked out of the palace gate, he saw Wei Mian beside King Chu.

Wei Mian stepped forward and bowed respectfully to King Wei: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Wei." King Wei raised his eyebrows and looked at Wei Mian, and asked in an indifferent tone: "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, King Wei, my Highness has something to tell you. Please move over."

King Wei guessed what King Chu wanted to do with him, and said coldly: "Lead the way."

Wei Mian took King Wei to find King Chu. King Chu was waiting for King Wei in a secret place.

King Wei walked over and sat down opposite King Chu.

Wei Mian and Yu Hai stood guard at the door.

King Wei didn't want to spend more time with King Chu, so he said with a cold face: "I will find my tenth brother."

King Chu put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at King Wei with cold eyes, with a sarcastic look on his face: "I think you know best who captured the tenth brother."

The King of Wei naturally knew who kidnapped Zhao Yao.He also understood why King Chu said that.

"No matter who captures the tenth brother, I will rescue the tenth brother and will not let him go."

"I hope you can keep your word." King Chu said, his eyes suddenly became very sharp, and he warned King Wei in a sinister tone, "If you put your tenth brother in danger for your own selfish interests, I will never let you go. you."

"You should mind your own business." King Wei stood up and looked at King Chu with cold eyes, "You don't need to worry about the tenth brother's affairs."

The King of Chu asked: "Who was the reason why the tenth brother was arrested this time?"

Although Zhao Yao's arrest had nothing to do with King Wei, it had something to do with the prince's people.King Wei did not expect that the people from Jinling would be so bold as to capture Zhao Yao.

King Wei said nothing more to King Chu and turned around to leave.

After a while, Wei Mian walked in.Seeing the displeasure on King Chu's face, he hesitated for a moment before asking: "Your Highness, Your Highness the King of Wei is not willing to save His Highness the Tenth Prince?"

"No."

"Since His Highness King Wei has promised to save His Highness Tenth, what are you still worried about?"

"I'm worried that he will put the tenth brother in danger again." Although King Chu has no one in Jinling, he has some knowledge of the affairs in Jinling. "The arrest of the tenth brother this time has nothing to do with him."

"Your Highness, if you are really worried, I can go to Jinling quietly."

"Jinling is not our territory. It would be bad if you go there." King Chu really wanted to go to Jinling to find his tenth brother in person, but he had an important mission to go to Pengcheng and couldn't spare the time to go to Jinling.Besides, if he goes to Jinling, he will attract the attention of the prince's people. Not only will he not be able to save the tenth brother, but it will make the tenth brother's situation even more dangerous.

Wei Mian knew that the King of Chu had been worried about Zhao Yao's safety during these days, so he comforted him and said: "Your Highness, although His Highness the King of Wei is sinister and treacherous, he is also very concerned about His Highness the Tenth Highness. I feel that he will definitely find His Highness the Tenth Highness."

King Chu said coldly: "If he can't find his tenth brother, then there is no need for him to live in this world."

"Your Highness said yes."

King Chu stood up and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to set off."

"Your Highness, when you go to Pengcheng this time, the Crown Prince and the King will definitely send someone to assassinate you. We have to be careful." His Highness's departure from the capital is a good opportunity for the Crown Prince and the King to assassinate His Highness. They will never miss this opportunity. opportunity.

King Chu nodded slightly and said, "Act according to the plan."

After King Wei met Queen Chu, he did not rush to the dock. Instead, he returned to King Wei's Mansion first. He had something to explain.When he went to the dock, King Jing had already left.He had already guessed that King Jing would not wait for him, nor would he go to Aurous Hill with him.

King Jing didn't wait for him, which was exactly what he wanted.If he and King Jing were on the same boat, there would be many things that would be inconvenient for him to do.

The King of Chu did not choose to go to Pengcheng by boat, but rode directly to Pengcheng.

Sure enough, the King of Chu and the others guessed it, and they were assassinated one after another on the way to Pengcheng. Fortunately, the King of Chu had made preparations long ago and did not let the prince and the people who were acting on behalf of the king succeed.

Zhao Yao, who was far away in Jinling, was still locked in that secret room with that too handsome man.However, in the past few days, people who were too beautiful began to talk to him and no longer ignored him as before.
