Chapter 351
Killing 100,000 of his own soldiers, he felt cold behind his back when he thought of that scene.
He was more worried about what to do if Xie Yao tricked him. Then he would be completely finished, and his fate would be worse than that of his eldest brother and third brother. In order to calm the anger of the people, his father would definitely behead him and show him to the public. There is no doubt about that.
But the latest letter also touched his heart. If Xie Yao really tricked him, it would not be good for Xie Yao to expose this matter. He would probably lose the trust of the king of Lan. Even if the other party made all kinds of excuses, the king of Lan, whose physical condition was gradually getting worse, would feel that he was too anxious and it would be difficult for him to trust him again. In the last days of the king, it would be difficult to let go of all the power.
And the sixth sister, Xie Yao actually had feelings for the sixth sister, if it was really a good thing for him.
The other party was right in saying that this road was destined to be bumpy, and many choices were just gambles.
Wait and see.
After all, the risk of this matter is really great. If there is any mistake, there will be no recovery.
He needs to think carefully.
"I don't know what my second brother will choose." Jiang Zhao learned about the recent movements of the Ruijun Palace from Jiang Xiaoju and Jiang Xiaozha, and it is estimated that the result will be known soon.
Xie Yao has not left yet, and is still hiding outside the capital. It is quite bold. No matter how careful the second brother is, he probably can't think that Xie Yao is still outside the capital. It's better not to leave, so that it is easier to catch people. No matter what the second brother will choose, he will definitely find a way to catch Xie Yao. The guy who killed 100,000 soldiers of Dazhao is not a good thing.
Ten days later, Jiang Cheng received a victory report.
The brave young general Yan Jiuci led the army to capture a city of Lan State, severely crushing the spirit of Lan State. Lan State suffered a great blow, which made Jiang Cheng very happy. After rewarding Yan Jiuci and all the soldiers, he smiled and ate walnuts. It's still good that Lao Wu sent him such a talent.
Not long after the news of the loss of a city in Lan State came out, Jiang Jin received another letter from Xie Yao. There were not many words on this letter: Good timing. My father has been so angry that he vomited blood, and his life span is estimated to be shortened again. If we cooperate, the reaction of your majesty should be similar.
Jiang Jin knew it was a good time.
Let Xie Yao make merit when Lan State is decadent, and the other party will definitely be able to consolidate his position. If Xie Yao doesn't cheat people, he can also consolidate his position by making merit next time.
Should I do this?
In fact, he has almost figured it out now. He is not reluctant to sacrifice anyone, but he is afraid of falling into this matter. For him, this matter can only succeed and cannot fail, and there is no second chance.
If Da Zhao loses 100,000 troops at once, it is estimated that it will really have a great impact on his father's health. Great sorrow and great joy do reduce people's life span.
Waiting is indeed anxious.
Now there is a fourth brother who is eyeing him covetously. If he waits a few more years, his younger brothers will grow up. Is it really the best strategy to continue waiting? If the emperor is at ease and wants to train a younger one, with his ability, there is absolutely no problem for him to train a decent crown prince himself.
In this way, wouldn't he have waited for so many years in vain?
Jiang Jin folded the letter and didn't burn it like he did with the first letter. Instead, he folded it up and hid it in the secret compartment. Walking to the table again, he picked up a pen and wrote a letter.
Jiang Jin had just replied to Xie Yao when Jiang Zhao received the news. He was not surprised at all to get this result. He felt that he had finally reached this point.
At present, Lan Kingdom has not retreated. After being captured by Dazhao, they will definitely find a way to take it back. Even if they can't take back the city, they will ask for it back in other places. The situation between the two countries is still very tense. Now that Dazhao has the upper hand, Jiang Cheng is in a good mood.
On this day, Jiang Zhao went to the palace to find the old emperor.
This time he did not intend to use Jiang Jin as a breakthrough point. Jiang Jin might not think about killing soldiers in front of the old emperor. Even if he thought about it, when he was caught, Xie Yao would definitely get the news and run away.
This time, catch Xie Yao first.
As long as Xie Yao is caught, are you afraid that you can't catch Jiang Jin's pigtail?
"Go out of the palace?" Jiang Chen was a little surprised, "Take me to relax?" Soon he laughed again, it's a pity that Lao Wu thought of it.
But speaking of it, he really hasn't been out of the palace to relax for a long time, why not go out for a walk?
"Father, take mother with you, and Sixth Sister, the whole family will go." Jiang Zhao said.
Jiang Chen thought about it and agreed. Okay, he likes to hear the words of the whole family. Lao Wu is his good son if he is obedient, and it doesn't matter if he spoils him a little. Besides, only Lao Wu would do such a thing as inviting him out of the palace to relax, right? It made him feel like an ordinary father.
Jiang Cheng arranged the things in his hands, and took Xia Zhizhi and Jiang Fu out of the palace on the third day. Jiang Zhao was waiting outside the palace.
Jiang Fu was a little surprised sitting in the carriage. It was her first time to go out of the palace with her father to relax, and this feeling was actually good.
They had changed into ordinary clothes long ago, and got off the carriage when they reached more interesting places.
Jiang Zhao had played all over the capital, and was not in a hurry to lead the old emperor to the destination, so that the spies would not run away. He first took the old emperor to play around and made him happy, and then led him to the location of the spies.
[Hey, isn’t this man Prince An? ]
Jiang Cheng was stuffed with a string of candied haws by Jiang Zhao, but he refused to eat it. He wanted to be serious but couldn't help laughing. Jiang Fu said to give her some, but he didn't. This kind of experience was really new, and it really made him feel relaxed.
At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice from his heart.
There is actually a big difference between listening to people's words and their voices. After all these years, he has long been able to distinguish the voices of the heart from the voices of people, so he can recognize them after just one ear.
He paused, walked to a stall and looked at the little things, asking Xia Zhizhi and Jiang Fu if they wanted any, and let the two choose. In fact, he wanted to hear what the man was thinking about when he mentioned Lao Wu.
