1015 The throne, who can stop it?
Mr. Yinli was depressed all his life because he married a princess. Unexpectedly, he would take power in his old age because of the eldest princess. His life is really full of ups and downs...
Most of the high-ranking officials in Xiling knew about the affair between the Princess and the Left Prime Minister. Although they said nothing on the surface, they were discussing it happily in secret.
Some people even said that if one wanted to become the prime minister of Xiling, one had to serve the eldest princess first. Didn't they see that the eldest princess had just kicked out her old love, the Left Prime Minister, and then helped her new love, Mr. Yinli, to take the position?
Of course, such rumors also reached the ears of Mr. Yinli. Mr. Yinli was indeed a person valued by the Ninth Prince. After so many years of forbearance, he would certainly not fail at this moment.
Mr. Yinli used his open-mindedness and wisdom to tell everyone that he was able to become the Prime Minister of Xiling because of his ability. If he had not been suppressed by the Princess for more than 20 years, there would be no such person as the Left Prime Minister in Xiling.
Such arrogance and courage silenced the officials of Xiling. They all stared at Mr. Yinli with wide eyes to see what he would do.
Mr. Yinli did not disappoint everyone. He suppressed several political enemies with thundering means and handled several political affairs that embarrassed the court officials. After receiving the emperor's praise, no one dared to underestimate Mr. Yinli anymore.
At this time, everyone realized that the current Mr. Yinli was not the prince consort who allowed them to ridicule him, but the prime minister, the head of all officials in Xiling.
When the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman gains. When the eldest princess and Prince Lei fought to the death, it not only gave Mr. Yinli a chance to make a comeback, but also allowed Xiling Tianyu to successfully obtain military power.
After making sure that Emperor Xiling was fine, Xiling Tianyu quietly left Shangjing with the master of Xuanyi Valley. After a stroll outside, he returned to the palace openly.
When Xiling Tianyu returned to the palace, the eldest princess and Xiling Tianlei were fighting the most fiercely. Not long after, Xiling Tianyu volunteered to join the army, making it clear that he would not participate in the struggle in the court and would not compete for the throne.
This move made Emperor Xiling feel guilty towards Xiling Tianyu, thinking that he had wronged Xiling Tianyu. This forced Xiling Tianyu to retreat away from Shangjing in order to show his determination.
The Emperor of Xiling immediately appointed Xiling Tianyu as the King of Southwest, guarding the border between Xiling and Beiling.
"King of the Southwest, guarding Beiling, how interesting." The Ninth Prince smiled coldly when he saw the news.
Does the Emperor of Xiling think highly of Xiling Tianyu or does he want to make trouble for him? Maybe both.
The place where it intersects with Beiling is a very special place for all countries. There are many soldiers there, but the life is also hard.
The border of Beiling is bitterly cold, and the soldiers of Beiling are brave and good at fighting. In order to ensure the stability of the border, no matter whether it is Dongling, Nanling or Xiling, the soldiers stationed on the border of Beiling are the largest and the most capable.
The generals stationed in Beiling were all great generals who had fought in countless battles. For example, the general stationed in Beiling in Dongling was Yuwen Yuanhua, who led 300,000 soldiers with him.
The general stationed at the border of Beiling by Nanling was the one who defeated General Feng in the past, and he also had 300,000 troops under his command.
The general who was stationed in Beiling before Xiling was also a veteran. He was too old to stay in the bitter and cold place at the border of Beiling. In addition, he was afraid of the emperor's suspicion since he held military power, so he took the opportunity to ask for permission to come back. He didn't expect that the emperor would actually send Xiling Tianyu over.
You should know that there are 400,000 troops stationed in Beiling from Xiling. The emperor is really relieved to hand over so many troops to Xiling Tianyu.
However, the emperor sent Xiling Tianyu, a prince who had no military experience and no prestige in the army, to Beiling to be the leader of those powerful soldiers and generals. Even if he trusted Xiling Tianshou, he had no good plan.
"This move by Emperor Xiling is interesting." Feng Qingchen said in a low voice.
When the Ninth Prince read these secret letters, he did not hide them from Feng Qingchen. He even explained to Feng Qingchen when he encountered something that Feng Qingchen did not understand.
Although the Ninth Prince did not want Feng Qingchen to become the second Princess and only wanted to fight for power, he also did not want Feng Qingchen to know nothing.
As the head of the Feng family, Feng Qingchen may not understand these government affairs, but as the legitimate daughter of Feng Li, and even potentially the future King Feng Li, Feng Qingchen must know these, otherwise she will not be able to sit firmly in that position.
"Tell me, what's so interesting about it?" The events in Xiling were a little beyond the Ninth Uncle's expectations, making him feel as if things were out of control. The Ninth Uncle just wanted to talk to Feng Qingchen.
Feng Qingchen said without thinking too much: "The Xiling Emperor gave Xiling Tianyu so much power, which is not a good thing for Xiling Tianyu. Let's not talk about whether he can keep these military powers according to his physical condition. He finally escaped from the struggle in the court. The emperor's action is to pull him into the vortex again. With 400,000 troops in his hands, neither Prince Lei nor the eldest princess will let him go."
In Feng Qingchen's opinion, if Emperor Xiling really felt guilty towards Xiling Tianyu, he would not have thrown Xiling Tianyu to a place like Beiling.
In the army, status is useless, ability is the most important. Emperor Xiling is well aware that Xiling Tianyu has a leg disease. Throwing Xiling Tianyu to Beiling would be like asking for Xiling Tianyu's life, at least in Feng Qingchen's eyes.
"That's true, but this is also an opportunity for Tianyu. The Emperor of Xiling may have his considerations." If Xiling Tianyu can subdue the army stationed in Beiling, neither Prince Lei nor the eldest princess will dare to do anything to him. At that time, the Emperor of Xiling will definitely reconsider some things.
After all, Emperor Xiling is a smart man. He will choose a capable emperor instead of someone he likes.
However, the situation would be unfavorable to him by then.
Could it be that Emperor Xiling discovered something that led him to make such a plan?
The Ninth Prince had to think more, after all, human hearts are fickle.
Seeing the solemn expression on Ninth Uncle's face, Feng Qingchen knew what he was worried about, and asked softly, "Are you worried that Prince Yu will have other ideas after he gains power?"
The Ninth Prince nodded without hesitation: "If Tianyu has soldiers in his hands, he will definitely think more about it at that time. After all, his last name is Xiling, and he is very close to that location."
If he could become the emperor, why would Xiling Tianyu need to cooperate with him? Xiling Tianyu said that he would give Xiling to him because he believed that he could not stand on his legs and that he had no chance of ascending the throne.
In Xiling Tianyu's eyes, this promise may never be fulfilled.
Later, Xiling Tianyu was able to stand up, but he was also unsuccessful in Xiling. He had no power at all and had no chance of becoming emperor. In addition, the attitude of the emperor and empress of Xiling towards him made Xiling feel repulsive to Xiling and had no sense of belonging.
But if one day, Xiling Tianyu holds great power, can ascend to the throne of emperor, and owns the vast territory, will he still hand over Xiling to him as a thank you gift for saving his life?
The Ninth Prince was very suspicious.
Words to readers: Darlings, do you think Prince Tianyu can keep **? If it were you, would you be able to keep it?
