Chapter 392 The Impatient Prince Chao

Chapter 392 The Impatient Prince Chao

Wang Zichao was hesitating there, but Yin Buying and Pian Xun went back and forth, coming to ask for an audience.Wang Zichao also happened to have no masters, so he had to call the two of them into the hall.

As soon as Yin Buying came in, Jishou said anxiously:

"Your Highness, this is a golden opportunity, don't miss it! Please make a decision early, Your Highness, if this is done, you can win it all in one battle!"

The prince let out a long sigh.

"No, I know that you are also thinking of me, but Mr. Ziming's words are not unreasonable. If we really fall into the trick of the single flag, we will be in a dilemma at that time. Wouldn't we be defeated?"

Yin Buying said disdainfully:

"Your Highness thinks too much, so Li Ran only made such a judgment after hearing Gong Jian's words. Who is Gong Jian? How can he trust his words?"

And on the sidelines, he asked for his life immediately:

"His Royal Highness, please allocate soldiers and send Xun to attack Huangyi. Xun is willing to guarantee with his life that he will take this place for His Highness!"

The prince hesitated and said:

"It's just... this move is really too aggressive..."

"Your Highness, Li Ran's plan was extremely aggressive before. But at this moment, he suddenly focused on prudence. There must be a reason for this! Do you think he is hesitant to wait and see? If His Highness's move is successful, what should he do?" How to deal with Prince Meng? He is the King of Zhou in name after all. If we capture him, how should we deal with him? Li Ziming must also be worried that we will be disadvantageous to him, so he asked for a delay! From this point of view, this person obviously does not have the same heart as His Highness!"

When Wang Zichao heard the words, he couldn't help being shocked.

"No sycophant! Don't talk nonsense here! Bengong and Mr. Ziming are on the same page, how can they stand your suspicion!"

Wang Zichao is now acting in the name of the Qing emperor and Kuang Fu Zhou's family, and Wang Zimeng is also his brother after all.Now that he was established as King of Zhou, even though Wang Zichao was unwilling, he had to cover it up a little bit.

However, his original intention was to replace it after all.However, Li Ran and him, either intentionally avoided or had no time to spare, did not talk about this matter.

So deep down in Li Ran's heart, is he willing to help him finally ascend to the position of Datong?Or is it just to quell the civil strife in the Zhou royal family, and avenge his own personal revenge by the way?

How much the prince is facing is a little uncertain.

"Your Highness, after all, this Li Ran has been working abroad for more than ten years. It is not yet known how he treats the Zhou family."

"Besides, there is no movement in his plan to win Cheng Zhou. If we remain indifferent and miss such a good opportunity, we will definitely regret it in the future!"

For the first time, the yin and sycophant's words made Wang Zichao shaken, coupled with the promise made by Yan Xun at the side, finally made him make up his mind: he decided to send Huang Yi to send troops to Huangyi!

And when Li Ran heard the news, he immediately met Wang Zichao, and Wang Zichao retreated to the left and right, and met Li Ran alone. Li Ran's words seemed extremely embarrassing:

"Your Highness! This matter must not be done! If General Yan goes away, it will be fatal. The morale of our army is booming, and if we are frustrated, all previous efforts will be wasted! Your Highness, please think again!"

The prince turned his attention to the table, but did not look at Li Ran.

"Mr. Ziming, don't worry, if you win this battle by chance, the court will not do anything to my brother!"

Li Ran was startled slightly when he heard this.Knowing that Wang Zichao still doesn't understand his own nature well enough:

"Your Highness, I know what His Highness thinks in his heart. The Zhou family suffered a lot of prince casualties after this turmoil. It would be best if His Highness could think of brotherhood. However, it is still too early to talk about abdication now. It won't be too late for His Highness to make a decision until His Highness has decided."

Although Li Ran didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that he actually supported the prince's acceptance of Zen and becoming king after the dynasty.

Wang Zichao couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the words:

"Sir, if you have such a heart, you will be very grateful to Ming! Don't worry, sir, this time, he voluntarily asked for his order to go. He has always been brave, and I think he will win the victory for my palace!"

Li Ran knew that Wang Zichao had made up his mind, and he was afraid it would be difficult to change.After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help asking:

"Then how many troops did His Highness send to him?"

"He said that only [-] is enough, but Chen Bing in Huangyi had [-], and the court was worried, so he allocated [-] more to him."

Li Ran calculated the existing troops in his mind.

"I still hope that His Highness will send him [-], and the remaining [-] can be handed over to Sun Wu to lead, thinking that he will respond later!"

Wang Zichao shook his head.

"Sir, you're overthinking. Since we're trying to win this battle quickly, it's better not to disperse our forces. Besides, General Sun has other uses, so let's let the 5000 people go to attack Huangyi!"

Li Ran wanted to say something more, but Wang Zichao said again:

"Sir, Chao knows the doubts in your heart. This move is actually a test. Chao has already warned you that if you feel something is wrong, don't hesitate, just withdraw immediately. You must not fight with the other party! This matter is over It's settled, the court has already made a promise, and it's hard to change it, so let's just do it like this!"

Li Ran knew that Wang Zichao still couldn't resist Zhou Wangmeng's temptation to leave Cheng Zhou, and Li Ran had nothing to do about it.He wanted Sun Wu to follow in order to reduce some losses, but even this was rejected by Wang Zichao.

But at this time, Wang Zichao really had another important matter to entrust Sun Wu to handle.That is to ask him to lead 5000 people to attack Dongyu. Now that the Zhou-Jin coalition forces have not completely converged, Wang Zichao thinks this is an opportunity.

The opponent's military power is now distributed in Chengzhou, Puche, and Huangyi.Dongyu is a small city with not many troops, and it is not far from Chengzhou. If Dongyu can be captured, it will be good for them to push into Chengzhou in the future.

Li Ran didn't have any objection to this, he was only worried about the side, he led nearly half of the troops, if he failed, it would really hurt his vitality!

Just as Li Ran was anxiously waiting for the news of the war in Huangyi, Xiaoyi suddenly appeared. He was sent by Li Ran to Yunyi to investigate the news of Lu Houchou, but he could not find it, so Li Ran asked Xiaoyi to stay. The next group of people continued to investigate, and Owl Yi came back first.

When Xiaoyi returned to Zhengyi and learned that Li Ran had come out to help Wang Zichao, he was concerned about the safety of his master, and he also cared about the festival music, so he asked him to come to serve Li Ran's daily life.

Although Xiaoyi didn't directly find out Lu Houchou's whereabouts, he also knew that Lu Houchou must be near Yunyi, but he was worried that Ji Sun Yiru would kill him, so he deliberately hid his whereabouts.

Just listen to Owl Wing say:

"My lord, the people from the state of Lu are still visiting now. Once there is news, there will be news. As for Ji Sun Yiru, after driving Luhou out of the capital, he took over Lu Zheng on his behalf and fought against him. In the name of 'the emperor of the Qing Dynasty', the pursuit of Marquis Lu has not relaxed in the slightest!"

When Li Ran heard "Qing Jun's side", he couldn't help being a little taken aback.

That's right, Wang Zichao can use such a title, why can't Jisun Yiru use it?Speaking of it, it's really ironic.

"Jisun Yiru used his ministers to usurp the ruler! Speaking of it, Marquis Lu is a ruler after all, and he is a minister after all! It is really too much for him to force Marquis Lu to this point!"

"My lord, I don't know what's going on here now?"

Although Xiaoyi is well-informed, he has basically placed all the eyeliners that can be arranged near Yunyi.

Moreover, since Wang Ji Nei had been temporarily reduced to a battlefield and the trade routes were impassable, he now had no way of understanding the situation on the Zhou royal family's side.

When Li Ran heard this question, he seemed quite helpless:

"Wang Zichao didn't listen to good words. This time, he couldn't hold his breath and rushed into the army. The situation of the battle is still unclear. I hope nothing serious will happen!"

"My lord, don't worry too much. Monarchs and ministers have their own ideas, which can't be said to be right or wrong. It's really too difficult for the monarch and ministers to be completely single-minded. Now, the lord, just do your best. That's why."

Li Ran sighed, and shook his head sadly:

"Xiao Yi, you ran away with me to the royal family of Zhou. Others may not understand it, but you must know me best. Today's Wang Zichao, his appearance, his words and deeds are really the same as the Prince Jin of that year. It's exactly the same. And you know the relationship between me and Prince Jin the most."

"So, I, Li Ran, really want to help him! Let's do a big business together... Hey, what, what!"

Wang Zichao really made Li Ran see the shadow of Prince Jin in him.

It's just that he is so sincere, but he doesn't know what kind of feedback he will get?
