Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 356 The second prince's scheme
Since the last time he met the third prince in the imperial garden, Chen Zhi felt that the third prince's attitude towards him had changed a lot, and Chen Zhi felt a little guilty.

During this period of time, although the third prince seemed to be actively bullying Chen Zhi, he would always be blocked by the third prince.

Chen Zhi was a smart person, so he could tell that the third prince was sincerely treating him well, but because the third prince belonged to the second prince, even if he was kind to him, he couldn't show it blatantly.

Anyway, on the surface, the third prince seems to belong to the second prince. If the second prince knows that the third prince has been secretly helping Chen Zhi, the second prince will doubt the third prince's loyalty to him no matter how stupid he is.

Chen Zhi also knew that although the third prince was obedient to the second prince on the surface, in fact he looked down on the second prince at all in his heart.The third prince is a brave and resourceful person, while the second prince is just brave and foolish, and his behavior is a little arrogant. Although many people seem to belong to him on the surface, they are similar to the third prince in secret, and they all think so It is difficult for a person to be of great use.

The second prince had quite a few people, so when it was heard from the border that Zhao's army was slowly gathering, the second prince also knew the news.

While knowing the news, the second prince also had some thoughts in his heart, although the world often said "if the enemy does not move, I will not move".However, the character and temper of the second prince cannot make the second prince wait to be beaten by others.

Although, the second prince already had the idea of ​​sending troops to attack Zhao Guo first, but after all, the emperor was still there, so the second prince could only think about it first.

After calling the third prince and some of his guests, the second prince began to talk about it.

"His Royal Highness has received the news that Zhao Guo is in Zhao, and the troops at the border between Qi and Qi have increased. I think we should preemptively persuade Father and Emperor to send troops to attack Zhao Guo. You can't let Lao Shizi's enemy move me, that's not the case. Is it a self-deception, thinking that if you don't react, the other party won't attack us? It's ridiculous." Sitting on the throne, the second prince said with a mocking face.

After listening to the second prince's words, the guests below whispered to each other, and then saw the third prince stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Second brother is right. Whether we attack Zhao Guo or not, Zhao Guo must be If anyone wants to attack us, it is better for us to act first and catch Zhao Guo by surprise."

Everyone whispered again, some people thought that what the second prince and the third prince said was indeed correct.Some people who don't like wars naturally don't want wars to happen.

Therefore, someone stood up and said at this time: "Second prince, I think that although Zhao Guo has assembled soldiers and horses, we don't know anything about Zhao Guo's current situation, and we don't know whether Zhao Guo wants to fight or just Simply send people to guard the border. If we attack Zhao Guo rashly, I am afraid that it will cause opposition from the ministers of the DPRK and China."

In fact, what this person said was just self-deception. Even the second prince could see that Zhao Guo was plotting something wrong, so how could it be that he simply sent someone?

Therefore, after the man finished speaking, the second prince's expression changed. The second prince's face was gloomy, and his eyes were full of sarcasm, as if he was talking about this person's ignorance, greed for life and fear of death.

"It seems that my Highness raised you for nothing!" The second prince's voice also became a little darker, and it sounded that the second prince was very unhappy now.

The second prince was very happy that the third prince agreed with his idea, and he had more trust in the third prince. Originally, the second prince thought that this time his idea would make everyone agree with and praise him. The prince is naturally unhappy.

The people below were a little guilty when they heard what the second prince said. The second prince was right. They were indeed raised by the second prince for nothing. They seemed to belong to the second prince. In fact, they listened to the third prince more. .

To put it bluntly, the second prince is raising them for the third prince, without knowing it.The people who thought they were raised by themselves were actually making wedding dresses for others.

Regarding these, the third prince didn't care. Since the second prince was willing to be the first bird, the third prince was naturally unwilling to stop him. On the contrary, the third prince wanted to help the second prince.

Seeing that the second prince seemed to be a little angry, the third prince hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him: "Second brother, don't be angry. What these people say is indeed reasonable. However, there are few military generals in the court now, and I am afraid that it is the second brother. If you propose to Emperor Father to take the initiative to attack the State of Zhao, Emperor Father will not have anyone available!"

What the second prince said was on point, and when he persuaded the second prince, his expression was that I was doing it for your own good, and he was very serious.Therefore, the second prince never expected that the third prince's words were just to trap the second prince.

The third prince can clearly feel the second prince's temper. The second prince is arrogant by nature, and attacking Zhao Guo is a matter of ease for the second prince.

Although the second prince is cruel and self-righteous in doing things, but the second prince's kung fu is still good, these are obvious to many people in the court.

Therefore, the third prince deliberately said that there is no one available in the court. According to the temper of the second prince, he would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity to make contributions.

Sure enough, the second prince laughed and said: "Hahaha, third brother, have you forgotten who I am? Second brother, how many people in Qi country can match my kung fu? Zhao country is just a mere ant. Going out on a horse is not something that can be easily grasped."

The third prince made a look of sudden realization, put a smile on his face, and then said to the second prince flatteringly: "What the second brother said is that the second brother is so brave and good at fighting, how could Zhao Guo be the second brother's opponent? Just asking for trouble."

Everyone saw that the second prince had made up his mind, and no one said anything against it. They all said that if the second prince stepped forward, within three months, he would definitely be able to take down Zhao Guo.

Seeing that the second prince looked confident, the third prince raised his teacup with a smile, and said to the second prince, "Second brother, the third brother is here, using tea as wine. The emperor agrees to attack the country of Zhao, and I wish the second brother a victory and win the country of Zhao in one fell swoop. When the second brother wins the Zhao country, he will be the hero of our Qi country. After a hundred years from the father, the second brother will definitely be on the throne."

He was very happy to be told by the third prince, and the second prince also smiled and raised his teacup. Seeing this, everyone also raised their teacups and said congratulations one after another.

"When I go out to attack Zhao Guo, Qi Guo needs the third brother to watch more." Not only did the second prince not doubt the reason why the third prince asked him to fight, but he even asked the third prince to watch the palace for him.

The corners of the mouths of most of the people below raised a hint of sarcasm, this second prince is really stupid.
