Chapter 738 Robbery in broad daylight



"Oh shit!"

Emperor Wen said angrily: "Don't say I didn't warn you. If your third brother doesn't even want to be the crown prince because of you, you will have to clean up the mess yourself in the future!"

"Not really?"

Yun Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The third brother would do anything to get the position of crown prince.

After being tricked like this, you don’t want to be the crown prince anymore?

If the third brother becomes the emperor, and if foreign enemies invade, will he not even want to be the emperor?

"Not at all!"

Emperor Wen snorted in an extremely indecent manner, "Throughout the dynasties, except for those that were about to perish, there has never been a prince as incompetent as him! I told you that he still has great use! Be obedient to me in the future, and don't try to trick your third brother for no reason!"

Sometimes he thought that he felt sorry for the third child.

...

...

He didn't even know if the third brother would go crazy after knowing the truth.

Although he didn't object to Yun Zheng cheating the third brother, everything has a limit!

Fortunately, the third brother is still young!

If the third child was his age, he would have been angered to death by this rebellious son!

"All right!"

Yun Zheng smiled helplessly, "As long as Third Brother doesn't cause trouble for me, I won't bother to bother him, right?"

"He has a lot of troubles on his hands right now, it's strange that he would bother you!" Emperor Wen glared at Yun Zheng with a smile, and suddenly changed the subject, "By the way, I have to give you half of the four million taels of silver your third brother promised you!"

“…”

Yun Zheng almost jumped up and said speechlessly: "Father, there is no such thing as you! I have finally been able to..."

"It's so hard!"

Emperor Wen glared at Yun Zheng with bulging eyes, "In order to hold a wedding for you and Jia Yao, I sold all the valuable items in the palace. You must give me some silver so that I can buy them back."

"Besides, you seized so much gold and silver treasures from Qiuchi. Didn't I ask you to pay some as tribute to the imperial court?"

"I have even given you Fuzhou, so what's wrong with you giving me two million taels of silver?"

"I am almost the poorest person in Da Gan now. If this continues, I will not even have the money to watch the rewards in private..."

Emperor Wen was talking about reason and crying poor at the same time, which made Yun Zheng's face twitch.

He didn't believe that the old man was so poor!

If you want to divide the spoils, just say so!

Why take so many detours?

"All right! Who says you are my father?"

Yun Zheng was speechless and agreed reluctantly.

"That's more like it!"

Emperor Wen immediately showed a satisfied smile, "Don't be ungrateful, do you think I really want your two million taels of silver? I want to help you stabilize your third brother and that old fox Xu Shifu!"

"this……"

Yun Zheng was puzzled, "Father, you used money to stabilize them?"

Why do I feel like this old guy is brainwashing me?

It would be a waste of talent for this old guy if he didn't engage in pyramid selling!

Emperor Wen smiled and explained, "Your third brother is so short of money now, I have to help him. In this way, he and Xu Shifu can firmly believe that I am determined to pass the throne to him..."

The third brother is easy to fool, but the old fox Xu Shifu is definitely not that easy to fool.

If he wanted the third brother and Xu Shifu to take ruthless action against the aristocratic families and clans, he, as the emperor, would have to bleed some first.

How can you fish without bait?

"I see! Father, you are a man of foresight, and I admire you!"

Yun Zheng flattered him, but he couldn't help but sigh at how well this old man understood people's hearts.

"Less flattery, more work!"

Emperor Wen smiled and glared at Yun Zheng, "Also, Fuzhou's taxes should be paid as they should be! You are the governor of Fuzhou, not the king of Fuzhou! Don't give the people of the world an excuse, understand?"

"I understand, son."

Yun Zheng nodded slightly.

Seeing that Yun Zheng didn't show his teeth, Emperor Wen finally showed a satisfied smile and patted Yun Zheng on the shoulder. "After returning to the imperial city, I will let your third brother supervise the country! Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on you!"

Let the third brother govern the country?

Yun Zheng looked at Emperor Wen in surprise.

What is this old man trying to do?

The Third Brother is the Regent, so he must...

As he thought about it, Yun Zheng's face suddenly showed enlightenment.

"Thank you, Father!"

Yun Zheng took a step back and saluted Emperor Wen respectfully.

He understood Emperor Wen's intention!

Let the third brother govern the country, he will take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents!

By then, the officials in the court would most likely be dissatisfied with the third brother and turn to me.

This old guy is really paving the way for himself!

"Okay, I understand."

Emperor Wen looked at Yun Zheng with satisfaction, and asked expectantly, "Have you figured out how to make me go to the Northern Huan Royal Court with peace of mind?"

Depend on!

It's this shit again!

Yun Zheng had a headache and answered bitterly: "I haven't thought of a better solution yet."

"Then think about it carefully!"

Emperor Wen was slightly disappointed. "I have tried my best to help you. You must help me arrange for my visit to the Northern Huan Royal Court! Anyway, I must go to the Northern Huan Royal Court before winter this year. If I can't go, I will be inconvenienced by you!"

have to!

The threats are coming!

Although this old guy is not good at fighting, he is really good at sneaking up on people.

If he deliberately makes things difficult for me, I'm afraid I'll have a hard time.

"I will think about this carefully later!"

Yun Zheng agreed reluctantly.

"That's more like it!"

Emperor Wen smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "It's not a good idea for me to pretend to be sick all day. I've only been lying down for more than a day, and I feel uncomfortable all over. Can you help me think of a reason to make me get better as soon as possible?"

After listening to Emperor Wen's words, Yun Zheng was speechless.

Old stuff!

Just try your best to trick me!

You want me to help you figure out a solution for this?

You are the ancestor of Yin and Yang, how could you not think of a suitable excuse?

He was simply too lazy to think and ended up blackmailing himself!

Yun Zheng pondered silently for a while, and an idea suddenly came to his mind, and he immediately whispered to Emperor Wen.

After hearing Yun Zheng's words, Emperor Wen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately scolded with a smile: "You rebellious son, your third brother is already like this, and you still want to trick him. I don't know whether I should praise you for being smart or scold you for being too insidious!"

If the third brother was half as cunning as this rebellious son, he wouldn't have been cheated so badly by him.

What a rebellious son!

He's a material that can become an emperor!

It's just that your heart is not cruel enough!

Yun Zheng chuckled, "Anyway, I've told you the solution. It's up to you, Father, to decide whether to use it or not."

"You are going to attack my army, right?"

Emperor Wen smiled and glared at Yun Zheng, stroking his beard and saying, "This is a good idea! It just connects what I told your third brother before!"

ah?

Yun Zheng was slightly stunned, then he started to complain wildly in his mind.

Old stuff!

And he said he was insidious!

How much better can he be?

Looking at Yun Zheng's appearance, Emperor Wen couldn't help but laugh, and then started talking to Yun Zheng about the martial arts performance.

Yun Zheng readily agreed to this matter.

It’s just right, I can use the martial arts performance to scare the third brother!

First, stop him from thinking of starting a civil war!

After agreeing, Yun Zheng reminded Emperor Wen: "After the potatoes are delivered, the court should plant them in the official fields and send people to guard them. Don't let these treasures fall into the hands of spies from the enemy country!"

"Well, that's true!"

Emperor Wen nodded slightly, then asked with a smile, "Would you like me to help you choose a name for your child?"
