Prince please enthrone

Chapter 540 Don't Be Happy Too Soon①

"That is to say..." Ye Lizhi smiled faintly:
"Even the most important soldiers of the King of Liang drink from lead cups used by ordinary people, and eat from lead pots used by ordinary people?"

King Xiao nodded firmly: "Of course."

"Very good," Ye Lizhi said slowly, with a sly light flashing in his bright apricot eyes:

"Then since the king of Liang treated his soldiers so harshly, let's entertain them. Not only will those skilled in martial arts use porcelain cups and iron pots for meals, but also all the lead products that ordinary people would use around them, How about replacing them all with something better?"

King Xiao narrowed his eyes, guessing the deep meaning of her words:

"Could it be...you want me to use this method to win over the second brother's people?"

People are creatures that seek profit and avoid loss. Once they find out that they will be treated better under King Xiao, and there may be an injustice, they will secretly go to his camp to serve him.

Can……

King Xiao thought of something, shook his head and said:
"But the second brother is a very loyal figure. Many people vote for him not only for fame and fortune, but also for a supreme glory. The second brother likes to lead troops to fight. Once he makes meritorious service on the battlefield, The second brother is determined not to hesitate to report the great achievements of his subordinates truthfully. In this way, worshiping generals and ennobling them is like picking something out of a bag, and it can also glorify the lintel, the ancestors and the ancestors. Just this small name and small profit will definitely not impress them of."

Ye Lizhi scratched his ears. In fact, having said so much, the truth isn't that he's notorious, and no one would take the initiative to join his sect?
As if he was afraid that his words would hurt this girl who was willing to think seriously about him, Xiao Wang added in a gentle tone:
"Actually, your method is very good, it's just...you don't know my second brother."

Hehe, do you know how to comfort her in turn?

Ye Lizhi's smile remained unchanged, but he said with a bit of helplessness:

"My lord is so smart, it's really unexpected to think of this level to make a slave. But the purpose of the slave is not for this~"

Xiao Wang was stunned: "Your purpose is not this? What is that?"

"I'm afraid you won't believe what the servant says about the lord," Ye Lizhi sighed softly, Chang Ping has passed down a habit for nearly a hundred years... how can you change it when you say it, and change it when you say it?She thought for a moment, and decided to give it a try:
"If the prince believes in the words of the servant girl, just do what the servant girl said. The effect will be shown in a month. Of course, the competition not only relies on brute force, but also tactics. The servant girl has another plan. I don't know the prince. Would you like to listen again..."

The beautiful maids outside the door were surprised to find that not only was the little maid who came in carrying snacks just now not thrown out by the lord, but she still stayed inside for a long time. Finally, she was carrying the empty tray and porcelain plate intact. come out.

Prince Xiao stroked the exquisite jade cup with his fingers, watching the sunlight being cut into bunches by the panes and falling into the room, causing light and shadow to flicker, bright and dark.

It's clearly right in front of you, some places can be seen clearly, but some places can't be seen clearly at all...

He couldn't help standing up, and opened the window. The petite figure just turned out of the courtyard door and disappeared, leaving only an afterimage in his eyes.

If she is a member of King Liang, is what she said today helping him, or digging a hole to hurt him?
King Xiao stood by the window for a long time, and finally smiled lightly. The handsome face that had always been spurned by the people was clear and flawless for a moment, and it burst into dazzling infinite brilliance.

So what to help, so what to harm?
It's just one-third of the military power... He is filial to the king, and he can afford to gamble!
"Come here," King Xiao raised his voice, and after his confidant came in, he ordered word by word:
"The order goes on, and from now on, all those who are selected to participate in the competition will have all their daily necessities replaced with porcelain and jade, and will be given brocade clothes. , don't treat him harshly, do you understand?"

His confidant was stunned, but his good qualities still made him suppress the doubts in his stomach, and he lowered his head and replied sonorously: "Yes!"

Knowing that King Xiao made offerings to the 1000 people who were about to take part in the competition as if they were offering sacrifices to their ancestors, he just had to set up the incense burner every day and put in three sticks of incense to pay homage to them.

"Hahahahahaha...! My dear fourth brother, he is really used to being extravagant and licentious. What do you think those people who think you can impress by this way will work for him? Tsk, you don't think you can use this method to attract me Do you want to abandon me and go to him? Hmph, you are really innocent, thinking that everyone is like him, and you can’t live without good clothes and good food?! "

"My lord, calm down." The counselor at the side hurriedly said:

"Isn't Xiao Wang at the end of the rope? Liang Wang, you are the people's will, and you are well-trained, with the support of the Queen Mother and the emperor behind you. Now this competition is almost sure. I am afraid that Xiao Wang knows this and panics." If he scratches his claws, he should make random moves. However, with his brain, I'm afraid he can only come up with such a method that is better than nothing."

Liang Wang was a little satisfied at this point, snorted coldly with disdain, picked up the thin porcelain teacup in his hand, and drank it down in one gulp.

Then he smashed the teacup on the table heavily and kneaded it into powder with bare hands.

"I've never cared about these extraneous things," King Liang announced arrogantly, the tiger's eyes darkened with frost, and he said in a gloomy tone:

"Fourth brother has lived a life of extravagance for more than [-] years, and it's time to come to an end."

The counselor was stunned and remained silent, but nodded slightly.

A month flies by.

On this day, the wind is sunny, the birds are singing everywhere, and there is a thriving scene.

In the spacious martial arts training ground outside the city, there are two armies facing each other, the atmosphere is serious, everyone has a solemn and hidden murderous look on their faces, each standing with a knife, looking serious.

The word "filial piety" stretched against the wind and fluttered under the banner. The king of filial piety was wearing a wide belt, dressed in strong clothes, and stood tall.

"The little brother is not talented, and he has raised a group of incompetent corporals. I hope that the second brother will show mercy. You must remember to save their lives. Even if you lose, the little brother will be grateful."

Is this playing the emotional card?
King Liang hated these convoluted tricks that disturbed people's hearts the most, and immediately returned the gift with a half-smile, and said boldly:

"Fourth brother is joking! Swords and guns have no eyes! On the battlefield, life or death is a matter of life and death. Fourth brother has never stepped on the battlefield. I am afraid that he does not understand the danger. Second brother is powerless and can only resign himself to fate!"

After answering his words, King Liang still tilted his head slightly, and asked loudly to the soldiers lined up behind him:

"My soldiers of King Liang, who is afraid of the word 'death'?!"
