In this way, the four of them sat down in the hall. Yin Shuke spoke first, but he concealed all the details and only said that it was those 'princes' who took the initiative to negotiate peace.
"Oben and Erliduo can't hold on any longer and want to give up Anban Bojilie's position, so they took the initiative to ask for peace with me?" Nianhan, who had just taken a sip of tea to refresh himself, seemed to be unable to believe it for a moment, but directly poured the steaming hot tea on the floor in the hall, and then stared at Yin Shuke and questioned. "Why are you asking for peace all of a sudden?"
"It was Wuzhu who instigated it." Yin Shuke responded immediately. "After the court meeting today, Wuzhu held a banquet at his home and gathered many young brothers to accuse Oben and Erliduo of the division. The two were already under pressure from the commander-in-chief, but they just went along with it and obeyed Wuzhu..."
"Wuzhu..." Nianhan seemed to be thinking about something, and then looked at Loushi. "I didn't expect that Wuliyan (Loushi's nickname, real name) would have such a miraculous effect when he came here this time."
Lou Shi said nothing, just lowered his head slightly.
"Captain Marshal." Yin Shuke continued to chuckle. "Wuzhu has now dragged all his brothers to his house and sent someone to find Wuliyan to tell him that his condition is to establish Hela, the grandson of Taizu and the son of the deceased son Shengguo, who is only eleven or twelve years old this year... The three of us think that this is also very good for the commander-in-chief. After all, Hela not only has a title and can make the king speechless, but the key is that he is young. After the king passes away, it will be convenient for the commander-in-chief to handle the important affairs of the court."
This statement was extremely explicit, causing Xi Yin to frown for a moment, but it also pointed out the key point, causing Nianhan to burst out laughing.
After laughing, Nianhan calmed down and twirled his beard, saying, "It's not impossible to establish Hela. I have actually had this thought before. It's obvious that I have been thinking about this for more than a day or two this year. But if this is all, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it to the king. After all, he is the king..."
"What does the commander-in-chief mean?" Xi Yin had no time to react after hearing this, Lou Shi remained motionless, but Yin Shuke became slightly stern.
"Let Oben, Erliduo and Wuzhu, the three relatives of Taizu, go with me to see the king!" Nianhan said coldly while sitting in his seat, twisting his beard, and even his own title suddenly changed. "Go tonight! I won't agree to it in the morning!"
The three people below looked at each other, and even Lou Shi's expression finally changed slightly.
It should be noted that the significance of Nianhan's move itself may not be any less than that of appointing a crown prince... Meeting with the king at night and forcing him to appoint a designated successor is a strong act of forcing the king to abdicate. Once successful, the king's authority will be severely damaged. Not only that, the three direct descendants of Aguda who are in power followed Nianhan's ass and participated in such behavior, which is not only a gesture of betrayal to their uncle's lineage, but also a gesture of submission to Nianhan.
In a word, Nianhan highly approved of this solution to the succession problem, but he was not satisfied. He also wanted to use this incident to establish his absolute position as a powerful official!
The three people present were not stupid, and they figured it out almost immediately. After figuring it out, Yin Shuke seemed the most flustered: "Marshal, isn't this a bit inappropriate..."
"What's wrong with that?" Nianhan greeted Yin Shuke coldly. "Wuzhu is only allowed to bring his brothers to force his two elder brothers. Maybe the three of you came to my house to force me today, but you don't allow me to force the king? In my opinion, our Great Jin Kingdom is a case of insubordination!"
Yin Shuke stood up in panic and stood in front of the seat, feeling increasingly flustered. Xi Yin and Lou Shi also did not dare to say much. They just stood up and lowered their heads to look at each other.
"That's what I said." Seeing the three people's expressions, Nianhan suddenly sneered. "I don't know how you guys are colluding with each other, and I don't want to know, but if you want me to promise this, I want to see Wuben, Erliduo, and Wuzhu in front of my house before dawn, and I also want to see the three of you come back. The seven of us will go to the old palace of the Liao people together, and this will be considered a success! You guys hurry up and do it!"
Yin, Shu, and the other two looked at each other again, but did not dare to refute at all. They could only go out obediently and prepare to go to Wushu's mansion to look for someone.
However, when he came out of the door, another servant suddenly followed him out and called Lou Shi and Xi Yin back, leaving Yin Shuke alone to do this. At the same time, he also reminded Yin Shuke that the Du Marshal had said that he might as well call the Right Deputy Marshal to bring Talan as well...
Now, Yin Shuke knew that all the little tricks he had planned in Yanjing City had been seen through by Nianhan, so he became more and more panicked. He could only gallop and rush to help Nianhan.
It must be said that Nianhan's power had reached a certain level at this time. Yin Shuke found Talan first. Talan, who was awakened from his sleep, heard the message and his heart was in turmoil for a while, but he did not stop for a moment and immediately followed Yin Shuke.
When they went to Wuzhu's mansion again, Wuzhu was also pale... After all, he, the fourth prince, was forcing his two elder brothers. If he failed, he would suffer backlash. He had already lost his way out.
Therefore, Wuzhu had no choice but to grit his teeth and take Yin Shuke and Talan to find Woben and Erlido who were resting at home.
But when Oben and Erlido woke up from their dream and heard the words, they became hesitant again... This was too shocking.
Wushu, Yinshuke and Talai pressed him hard. First Talai kowtowed on the spot, then Wushu cried and swore that he was only doing it for the public. If he failed today, he would be punished by the king and Nianhan. At the same time, Yinshuke hinted at coercion, saying that the marshal had made up his mind and it was the last chance. If the two princes did not do it, the throne would be lost to Taizu!
After using both soft and hard tactics, Oben and Erliduo were at a loss. When Wuzhu saw that his two brothers were wavering, he simply stepped forward and dragged them to see Nianhan with Yin Shuke, and Talai went out early to get the horses...
