Chapter 1651: Wang Chong and the Ghost King!
? Chapter 1651
"Heh, if it's not like this, how could it attract you to appear?"
Wang Chong said calmly.
From a long time ago, Wang Chong already felt that something was wrong. The eldest prince's behavior style is completely different from before, it seems that there is an extra counselor by his side, and the Great Buddha Temple incident makes people feel more and more like this.
More than that, when I think about it carefully, even though I was homeless when the Three Kings Rebellion happened, and I don't know many specific things, but in retrospect, apart from the people in the East Palace who were killed, the First Prince seems to have an important aide beside him, The same is true.
But there was no news about this character from the beginning to the end.
Because of my own rebirth, many things have changed accordingly, but judging from the present, the culprit who appeared next to the eldest prince, contributed to the chaos of the Three Kings, and indirectly caused countless courtiers to be slaughtered, reappeared in this life .
"If you don't enter the tiger's lair, how can you catch tiger cubs!"
Judging from the other party's several actions, this person is very cautious and will not take the lead easily. If you know yourself and the enemy, you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. If you want to stop the opponent, you must first know who your opponent is.
And with the opponent's usual cautiousness, unless he appeared in person, it would be difficult to lure the opponent out of the cave, which was why Wang Chong took the risk himself.
From the moment he walked out of the Heavenly Star Palace, Wang Chong's attention was not on the First Prince. From the beginning to the end, what he cared about was the old man standing behind the First Prince, who was very close to him.
The old man in front of him had jet-black hair all over his head except for the slight graying of his temples. Moreover, his eyes are sharp and his spirit is hale and hearty, his whole body is completely different from the average old man.
His every move gives people a very cultivated feeling, and he naturally exudes an aristocratic temperament, which is difficult even for the nobles in the capital. Because those people are only revealing in their behavior, but this person is the nobleness flowing from the depths of his bones.
Wang Chong has seen a lot of people in two generations, but Wang Chong has never seen such a person before. I am afraid that even King Song, the most magnanimous prince in the Tang Dynasty, is not as good as this.
Such a character should never be an unknown person, but Wang Chong searched all his memories, but he couldn't find anyone who matched the person in front of him.
"What is the origin of this person? It is impossible for a person to appear out of nowhere.
Logically, I should know such a character! "
Wang Chong's heart went up and down one after another, but there was no expression on his face.
On the other side, the ghost king didn't know that Wang Chong had so many thoughts in his mind in such a short period of time.
When he was speaking, there was always a slight smile on his face, but when he heard Wang Chong's words, his eyelids were slightly closed, and the smile on his face disappeared completely.
He also didn't expect that Wang Chong did all this, and in the end, it was not for Eunuch Gao, but to lure him out!
"It seems that I underestimated you!"
The ghost is king, the tone is completely different from before:
"I was only going to use three points of strength to deal with you. It seems that it should be raised to five points now."
"Yeah?"
Wang Chong couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. The person in front of him is really not ordinary self-confidence:
"If you think you've only used three percent of your strength, why do you think I'm doing my best?"
Along the way, Wang Chong has met many opponents, and it seems that everyone has full confidence in him.
It's just that in the end, all these people were defeated in their own hands.
In terms of wisdom and strategy, Wang Chong has never been afraid of any opponent.
On the other side, the ghost king's pupils narrowed slightly after hearing this, and he took a deep look at Wang Chong in front of him, his expression was completely different from before.
In an instant, the surroundings suddenly became quiet, eyes met, and no one spoke.
This is the first time the two have fought each other. For such a short while, it seems that there are only a few words, but it is actually a mutual temptation between the two.
But there is no doubt that whether it is Wang Chong or Ghost King, they have obviously felt a will to show their sharpness and never give in from the other party.
Unknowingly, the atmosphere became more and more tense.
"I know what you're going to do, but you're not going to make it!"
After an unknown amount of time, Wang Chong suddenly spoke, breaking the silence first. Losing their previous disguise, the two began to go straight to the point. The person in front of him had a deep plot. If the eldest prince was the culprit standing in front of the Three Kings Rebellion, then the person in front of him was the real "culprit" hiding behind the scenes.
In this scene, if he hadn't "taken the risk with his own body" and attracted him to appear, it would be difficult for outsiders to know his true identity forever.
Zhongtu Neng experienced the turmoil at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the efforts of several generations of emperors at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty to achieve today's peace. All of this has not come easily, not to mention, there is a huge catastrophe to come. Wang Chong will never allow anyone to destroy this hard-won everything.
This is the real purpose of his presence here.
"Yeah?"
Hearing this sentence, the ghost king laughed:
"Young man, with lofty ambitions, is indeed worthy of admiration. It's a pity that you are young and energetic, and you can't see your own ability clearly. Based on your current ability, I'm afraid it's a little bit worse."
Although there was a hint of a smile on the ghost king's face, his eyes were extremely sharp. Although Wang Chong is officially a prince, there is no country without fear.
But the ghost king didn't feel the slightest fear. In other words, even if he knew about Wang Chong's battles, the mysterious ghost king didn't care.
On his body, there is a strong arrogance naturally revealed, which is a kind of self-confidence emanating from the bones. It seems that no opponent is enough to compare with him.
"Oh, thank you senior for reminding me that the elders are respected and have rich experience, which is really incomparable to young people. However, seniors should also have heard a saying that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and one wave is stronger than the other. It's too conceited , but it’s not necessarily a good thing.”
Wang Chong said calmly.
Hearing these words, the Ghost King finally fell silent. Obviously, Wang Chong's sharpness was something he hadn't expected at the beginning. Looking carefully at Wang Chong in front of him, his eyes were changing, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Young man, let's play a game."
The ghost king suddenly said:
"Since ancient times, the elders have not been established, and the sons have not established concubines. You support the fifth prince, and I support the eldest prince. Let us see, in the end, it is your fifth prince who ascends to the Ninth Five Supreme. The prince, or the eldest prince I support?"
"Can!"
A cold light flashed in Wang Chong's eyes:
"It's just that I want to change the content of the game. If it's just a game, it would be too boring. It's better to bet our lives. The loser needs to pay the price of life for it."
"Hahaha, that's what the old man wants to say."
The ghost king laughed loudly and said without hesitation.
The laughter started at first, but stopped quickly.
The two looked at each other, and the surroundings became quiet again, but the atmosphere was more tense than ever, and invisible murderous intent flickered faintly in the void.
Wang Chong looked at the old man in front of him. No one knew better than him what the final capital of the Tang Dynasty would look like if the old man in front of him was allowed to succeed.
A thousand frontier victories are nothing compared to a single court turmoil.
When people are in turmoil, they are truly in turmoil!
In any case, no matter what price they paid, Wang Chong would never allow them to do that kind of treasonous conspiracy.
"Squeaky!"
It was too late to say it, but it was soon, when the two of them showed their sharpness and the atmosphere became more and more tense, there was a sound of the door opening. In the distance, the closed gate of the Tianxing Palace suddenly opened. Inside the hall, the First Prince walked out first with a gloomy expression.
Immediately after, the Fifth Prince Li Heng also walked out with a cold expression.
In an instant, the two people outside the hall turned their heads together and looked at the past together.
"let's go!"
Before the Ghost King could speak, the Eldest Prince had a gloomy expression, flicked his sleeves, and walked straight towards the East Palace. Behind him, the ghost king just smiled lightly.
"Foreign Land King, we will meet again."
After saying this sentence, the ghost king glanced at Li Heng who was not far away, followed closely behind the eldest prince, and left here as well.
"Your Highness!"
There was no one around, Wang Chong stepped forward and quickly walked towards the Fifth Prince:
"How about it, doesn't it matter?"
Wang Chong could tell that the fifth prince was not in the mood right now, and seemed to be preoccupied. In the Tianxing Palace, although they didn't know what the two said, but with the style of the eldest prince, they knew without thinking that it would definitely not be a good thing.
With the personality of the Fifth Prince, it definitely takes a lot of courage to walk from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, agree to help him lure out the person behind the First Prince, until he takes the initiative to walk into the Heavenly Star Palace and face his First Brother. Not so easy to do.
In fact, even Wang Chong was quite surprised when he saw the fifth prince stepping forward and showing no intention of giving in to his elder brother who was stronger than him.
There is no doubt that something different has happened to the Fifth Prince.
"I'm fine, don't worry. But on your side, have you found any information?"
The fifth prince briefly mentioned his affairs, and quickly asked about Wang Chong's affairs.
The First Prince's actions have become more frequent and more aggressive. Correspondingly, the Fifth Prince's situation has become more and more difficult, and he feels more and more pressure.
Once the eldest prince succeeds, he may no longer have a foothold in the palace. This is also the prerequisite for him to break his demons and take this step.
——After the Xiao Yufei incident, there was no longer any chance in his heart.
"Everything is going well, and I have got what I want. Although I still haven't been able to know the whereabouts of Eunuch Gao, judging from the situation tonight, at least one thing is certain. Even if Eunuch Gao is temporarily under house arrest, he will never Life is in danger."
Hearing the Fifth Prince talking about serious business, Wang Chong said seriously.
"A cicada perceives the autumn wind before it moves", "a leaf falls and you know the meaning of autumn", for smart people, even if they can't see the whole picture, they can still perceive a lot of news from the scattered little things.
Although he still didn't see Eunuch Gao during this trip to the palace, for Wang Chong, he had already got the news he wanted.
"That's good. As long as Eunuch Gao is fine, it means that everything has not reached the worst stage."
Hearing the words, the fifth prince let out a long sigh of relief, and his expression was obviously much more relaxed.
"Next, it's time for us to investigate who the 'superior' next to the First Prince is."
Wang Chong said, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
On the other side, the fifth prince's eyes also visibly fluctuated.
