The second prince Ning Zhiyuan and the third prince Chen Zhao were dissatisfied and said they could not come out of illness.

The next morning, news came out that the third prince Chen Zhao's mansion had been assassinated. If it weren't for the death to save the mansion, the third prince would have been almost assassinated. At the last moment, a monk tried to seriously injured and rescued the third prince.

The next day, the third prince Chen Zhao launched an edict to fight against rebellion and claimed to be the hero of the evil capital alone.

After siege several times, he almost captured the imperial city.

The eldest prince Chen Heng refused to defend the imperial city and fought to the death.

For a moment, both sides could not decide the outcome.

Another day, the bandits Black Mountain Army stationed in the north of the capital of evil launched a sneak attack, and the border was in a hurry.

People in the court were panic and talked a lot.

If the Black Mountain Army breaks through the fortress, it can stand tall and go straight to the imperial city.

For this reason, the eldest prince could only formulate countermeasures while discussing peace.

The eldest prince sent out 100,000 top-grade spirit stones and 100 female musicians before he stabilized the Black Mountain Army.

However, the armistice agreement lasted only three days.

According to rumors, the third prince colluded with the leader of the Black Mountain Army with a large sum of money and ordered him to attack the fortress and attack the imperial city from both ends, so that the head and tail could not take care of each other and agreed to divide the world together.

On the throne of the imperial city, Chen Heng saw the letters of the Black Mountain Army, and a hint of anger appeared on his face. He slapped his hand and slapped the imperial desk in front of him into powder.

Bastard!!!

The Black Mountain Army is too bullying.

Everyone, what should I do about this? The Black Mountain Army is approaching, and there is a rebel Chen Zhao rebelling. He slowly calmed down his anger. Chen Heng spoke.

He shook his head repeatedly at the civil servants, and there was no way.

Is there no one in my court available? Seeing that the ministers did not say a word, Chen Heng's face was filled with anger.

Your Majesty, I have something to report, Ji Yuanqiu, who was standing beside me, immediately stood up.

Ji Aiqing has something to do and he will come quickly, with a hint of gentleness on Chen Heng's face.

Your Majesty, the Black Mountain Army is just taking advantage of the situation and trying to make a profit from it. Besides, they are just bandits and a group of mobs, and they cannot cause any trouble.

But if we join forces with the rebel Chen Zhao, we will indeed not be able to take care of each other.

I suggest that Your Majesty may send a general to refuse to defend the fortress and not fight with him, so as to wait for change.

When we free up our hands, wouldn’t it be easy to destroy these rebels? Ji Yuanqiu suggested.

My brother will reconsider!

Ning Zhiyuan, who was standing beside him, stood up. Master Ji said it was right. The Black Mountain Army had no faith. If they gave money blindly, it would only make them grow more greedy and even despise us.

Therefore, my brothers are responsible for the battle.

What did the beloved ministers think? Chen Heng took a deep look at Ning Zhiyuan and then at the ministers in the court.

The ministers and others reconsidered, and many court officials nodded repeatedly.

Then he had to fight. Chen Heng nodded and immediately said, "But there is a court official who is willing to fight the Black Mountain Army."

Your Majesty, many generals are busy guarding the imperial city, just afraid...

When there was really no one available, Chen Heng sighed deeply, could he have wanted me to lead the army in person?

Your Majesty, you must not. If your Majesty does not personally guard the imperial city, the monarch, minister and soldiers will be afraid of being disloyal. Once the imperial city is lost, we will have no stronghold, and a court official will immediately dissuade him.

This is not true, that is not true. Then you should think of a way out, otherwise what is the use of supporting you guys?

Many court officials just lowered their heads and did not say a word. After all, they are all civil servants. They are not their leaders in battle to kill the enemy. You can't send a civil servant to the battlefield!

Seeing that no one was around, Ning Zhiyuan immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to share your worries."

You... Chen Heng looked at Ning Zhiyuan in surprise. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Emperor, I can't live without you. You still have to refuse to guard the imperial city with me. You must not take risks."

Your Majesty, let me go! Ji Yuanqiu stood up immediately.

Ji Aiqing is loyal and brave, but you are like the emperor's brother, without experience in the battle, Chen Heng shook his head.

Those who refuse to guard the fortress must be brave and crafty and good at fighting, but the war is at the moment...

Your Majesty, why not let me go with the second prince? The second prince is Your Majesty's younger brother. If you add a humble minister, you can take care of him. Ji Yuanqiu suggested.

Chen Heng looked at Ning Zhiyuan deeply, then looked at many court officials, hesitating.

This matter will be discussed temporarily tomorrow, so let’s retreat to the court!

Many court officials retreated one after another.

In the Imperial Garden, Chen Heng felt a little bored and immediately walked into the garden.

Behind him, an old man was followed.

Why is Your Majesty hesitant today? It is important to know that the changes in the battle situation can only be between day and night. Once the border is in danger, we may be in a dilemma of attacking both ends. The old man said lightly.

Chen Heng nodded and said, "As you said, don't I know the interests of it?"

However, Ning Zhiyuan's actions today made me somewhat suspicious.

Just imagine, what would you do if I put you under house arrest in the imperial city, take your freedom, or even send someone to assassinate you.

Without waiting for the old man to speak, Chen Heng continued to speak: "Even if he is powerless, he must have hated me. If a person has hatred, it will not be a threat if he vents it. But if he swallows his anger, just to find an opportunity to stay away from it.

With my control, do you think this tolerance is terrible?"

Your Majesty, I'm afraid I'll be worried. Ning Zhiyuan was born to the emperor's concubine during his lifetime. He didn't deserve the surname Chen. He still followed her mother's surname. If the emperor hadn't felt guilty during his lifetime, he wouldn't have recognized him as his son.

.

Moreover, he did not have too many gangs in the court and had no military experience in the military.

You must be careful of others, but you still underestimated him, and Chen Heng spoke with some worries.

Longsheng wings, Your Majesty, even if he is a hero and even has great ambitions, he is also a declining hero. Without anyone to assist him, how could he accomplish great things?

Besides, Your Majesty is just not able to make any moves. Once the war is stable, find a reason to recall him or even kill him quickly. There is a hint of cold light in the old man's eyes.

Let me consider what you said.

At the second prince's mansion, Su Xun looked at Ning Zhiyuan.

Brother Su, Ning Zhiyuan glanced at Su Xun sitting in front of him.

After the civil strife that day, Ning Zhiyuan did not rush to escape from the city, but instead looked for Su Xun everywhere and took Su Xun to the mansion.

From that day on, the whole city was not allowed to enter or leave, so Su Xun naturally had no chance to escape.

The second prince, Su Xun, spoke lightly.

Ning Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Today I asked His Majesty to guard the fortress. His Majesty did not agree or refused. It seems that he still has a strong suspicion for me."

Become the order in the face of danger!!!

If you rashly propose to fight on the battlefield, even if you are an emperor, you will be suspicious of you, Su Xun spoke.

I hope Brother Su will teach you. If this continues, I will be persecuted to death by Your Majesty sooner or later. Ning Zhiyuan said worriedly.

I have no hope for this battle between the crown prince and I don’t even want to participate in it. But my elder brother will still not let me go. Ning Zhiyuan’s eyes were a little confused.

Don't worry, the second prince, you have already understood the interests and plans for the overall situation. Your Majesty will definitely let you go to war tomorrow, Su Xun spoke slowly.

Why, Ning Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Su Xun.

First, if Your Majesty does not explicitly reject you, it will prove that you have hope. Second, you must know that the war changes rapidly, but if it is late, it will change.

The most important thing is that no one can use Your Majesty, so you can only use you. If you use you, you will doubt you, and you will not doubt others.

I understand what Brother Su said before, but I don’t doubt the use of people, and I don’t need to understand the doubts. Ning Zhiyuan humbly asks for advice.

Your Majesty will definitely agree to your war tomorrow. You can agree, but you cannot bring your family with you. You just need to carry out lightly. One can express your position, and secondly, it can also dispel Your Majesty's doubts.

So that's it. Ning Zhiyuan's eyes turned and he nodded. Then this time, I only need the Taifu, Brother Su and others to accompany him, and no one else will be brought with me.

Well, Su Xun nodded.

He sighed. This civil strife had already involved everyone. He wanted to stay out of it, but found that he could not stay away at all because he was already in the whirlpool of civil strife.
