After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 48 The Mature Adult

Hai Jiao blinked and looked at his sister: "Are you committing public outrage?"

Haitang nodded: "Yes. You see, Uncle Wang is the brother of the old Khan. He supported him to ascend to the throne and became the Khan. He has fought for him for decades. Even his only son died because the old Khan wanted to attack our great Chu. , will be captured. Uncle Wang has put in so much effort, so there is hard work without credit, right? As a result, the old Khan King just talked about it and transferred the soldiers, horses and property of Uncle Wang to others. The confidant generals can't even make the final decision on the marriage of their children. Is this too cold? The key is, can the army and property in the name of the barbarian prince be deprived by the Khan with just a word? If the old Khan is on the throne After decades, he has enough prestige to do this kind of thing, but what about the newly succeeded King Khan?"

Hai Jiao slowly came back to his senses: "This kind of thing is really taboo. If the military property of Hu princes and nobles fell into the hands of others so easily, there would be no need for the old King Khan to marry the new Queen Khan. , can we occupy the troops, horses and property left by Queen Khan’s mother’s father.”

However, as my sister said, the old Khan King has enough prestige, and he found an excuse to detain people in front of him. He was surrounded by heavy soldiers. Uncle Wang’s subordinates only had confidants by their side. If he didn’t want to agree, he had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, God knows what Old Khan did. What will the king do with them?No matter how much resentment you have in your heart, you have to wait until you regain your freedom before settling the consequences.

It's just that the old Khan King can do this, but the new Little Khan King doesn't have this prestige.If a child is ignorant and thinks that he can do what his father can do, he is asking for trouble.

Haitang said: "What the old Khan did, on the surface, seemed to have solved the current trouble, leaving Uncle Wang and his faction unable to compete with the new Khan. But in the long run, it may have buried even greater hidden dangers. "

Hai Jiao sneered: "Of course. The old King Khan is dead. Whether he can keep the property he left to the new King Khan depends on the ability of the new Queen Mother. But the new Queen Mother has a rivalry with Uncle Wang. The hatred of her father. If the strength of the two factions were equal, she might be able to tolerate it for a few years for her son; but now that her son has the upper hand and successfully inherited the throne, she might become arrogant and feel that Uncle Wang's faction can do whatever they want. Their mother and son have figured it out. Maybe she will continue to rob Uncle Wang’s soldiers, horses, livestock and property in the name of her son..."

Once she did something like this, how could Uncle Wang just sit back and wait for death?I'm afraid that even other princes and nobles will be dissatisfied with the little Khan, his mother and his son.

Since their mother and son could easily deprive Uncle Wang of his troops, horses, and property, they could do the same to other princes and nobles.This breaks the rules and cannot be tolerated. Otherwise, who can feel at ease?

Haitang smiled and said: "In this way, the Hu people who did not have civil strife will have civil strife again. If the new King Khan and Queen Khan want to send troops to attack Chu, they must be careful of Uncle Wang's faction secretly backstabbing. If they If we send Uncle Wang to attack Dachu instead, Uncle Wang will have to be careful that they will find excuses to seize soldiers, horses and property later."

Hai Jiao immediately thought: "If Uncle Wang wins the battle, even if he gets any reward, the new Khan King can take it back with just a word; if he loses the battle, let alone that, the new Khan King will get it directly An excuse to punish him. Who would be willing to do this stupid thing that has no benefits but also suffers losses? Uncle Wang is not willing to be a pawn anymore, and the new Khan King's faction will naturally not take the risk of defeat..."

Neither faction is willing to send troops, and other powerful princes and nobles must also beware of losing the battle. The new Khan will find excuses to deprive them of troops, horses, and property. How can they be asking for trouble?If no one raises troops, won't there be peace in Da Chu?

Hai Jiao couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought about it: "I have to talk to my cousin later. It would be great if the superiors could send a few spies over to spread some slander in the ears of the new Khan or Uncle Wang. Even if they are difficult to get close to, other barbarian princes will join in. As long as they can spread gossip to the ears of these barbarian nobles and make them suspicious of each other, the frontier army will have much less worry!"

Haitang smiled and said: "Sending a spy there is too risky. Aren't we still detaining a foreign third prince? What is the court going to do with this person? If he is going to be released sooner or later, then he has to blow the wind in his ear as soon as possible. , lest he turn around and lead troops to fight back after returning to take revenge on our great Chu, if you have time to spare, you should fight with their own people first." Hai Jiao paused: "I haven't confirmed this matter yet, but I usually work here I heard several generals discussing privately in the guardhouse, and it was estimated that the three princes would not die. Since the court intends to negotiate a peace, they will be released sooner or later. I heard that in Ganzhou, although the three princes were imprisoned in heavy prison However, he was not treated harshly. The cell was kept clean and decent, and the three meals a day were provided. He was not even shackled. Some people wanted to enter the prison to seek bad luck for him, and there were heavy soldiers guarding the door, refusing to let him in. "

For this matter, General Zhou of Dusi was constantly criticized.But what can he do?Someone from the capital conveyed the Holy Emperor's decree, and he had no choice but to obey.If something goes wrong, he will still be responsible.

Hai Jiao said to his sister: "This third prince is vicious and cunning. If he is released, he will cause endless disasters. Why does the court insist on keeping him alive?"

Haitang smiled, if the emperor intended to kill this person, he would naturally have a way to make him die after returning to the country. There is no shortage of such harmful secret medicine in the palace.But this kind of thing is not what a little girl like her should know, so she naturally won't mention it. She just said: "Since the peace talks can't produce results for a while, and this person can't go back for the time being, we should take advantage of the fact that there are neighbors around him." When you are here, say some specious words to make him suspicious of the new Khan's faction, so that he can focus on internal fighting."

Hai Jiao raised his eyebrows: "What kind of suspicion? His two cousins ​​were originally fighting for the position of King Khan. Now one has become a prisoner and the other has ascended the throne. No one else needs to instigate it, and the third prince will also feel resentful. .”

Haitang lowered her voice: "The people under the Hu people under Uncle Wang all think that the old Khan will pass the throne to the third prince. Presumably the old Khan often says this kind of thing, and the third prince must also believe it, so in order to prove himself, Leading troops to go to war. But my brother and I both know that even if he wins this battle, the old Khan King will not pass the throne to him..."

In his previous life, the third prince conquered Suzhou City. After returning, he was rewarded with land and property, and there was nothing to pass on the throne.No matter what the old Khan had promised to him, it didn't count.

Haijiao laughed.He understood what his sister meant: "The old Khan used his position as bait to send the third prince to attack Suzhou. Did he give him a chance to prove himself, or did he want to use his sword to kill people? The third prince didn't know what happened in his previous life. He only watched. When he was defeated and captured, he lost his position as Khan, and even his father's subordinates suffered heavy losses. As long as he believed that all this was a frame-up designed by the old Khan King, just to ask him to give up the throne to his younger cousin, when he returned The country will never let go of the heir of the old Khan!"

Hai Jiao even thought of letting Suzhou Guards spread the word that he had received a secret message before the war and knew in advance that the barbarians were going to attack, so he stopped the third prince.As for the source of the secret message?Anyway, it couldn’t be the reborn grandson of a minor official who became an official. It must be a letter sent by a certain king of Khan to Suzhou Wei!

He Haijiao would rather give up this credit than let the third prince of Hu Ren believe that all this is the conspiracy of the old Khan!

Hai Jiao couldn't sit still and immediately stood up: "I have to discuss it with my cousin to see how to arrange this matter to be natural and credible, so that the third prince can believe it smoothly..."

Haitang nodded with satisfaction.

very good!Brother Hai Jiao, you are now a mature adult. You should learn to use your own brain. You don’t have to let your sister worry about all these conspiracies and tricks, right?
