Both of them thought that they would be the final winners because they had the full support of Yunlu Pavilion.
Although they were very friendly when chatting together, they still had their own ulterior motives.
They all thought that the other party would be fooled.
Although the prince was very happy in his heart, he still sighed deeply on his face.
"Li Ye now has a strong army and strong horses, it won't be easy to kill him!
The two of us need to discuss carefully how to deal with him!"
In order to make the third prince take the blame, the prince tried every means to get his people to take action.
The third prince is not stupid either.
Didn't agree immediately.
He looked as if he was deliberately embarrassed.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Although I have some strength in the army, it is not enough to deal with Li Ye.
I wonder if the Crown Prince has any experts who could be of great use?"
The prince cursed inwardly.
But his expression was still very sincere: "It's already this time, we must cooperate sincerely.
If we can't deal with Li Ye, he will definitely use all his strength to deal with us when he comes back alive.
I have experts here, but how to hide in the military is a big problem."
The third prince saw the prince's sincerity and knew that he could no longer pretend.
If the prince gave up on assassinating Li Ye, his plan would fail completely.
"Since the prince has said so, there is no need for me to hide it.
Prince, please prepare the assassins. I will send them to the army."
The prince was delighted when he heard this: "That's right, as long as we cooperate sincerely, there is nothing we can't do.
Relying solely on my experts is not enough, you should also arrange the manpower and be prepared.
If my assassination fails, your men can immediately fill in."
The third prince felt that as long as the prince's men took action, he could completely break away from the matter.
Even if they were found out, as long as they were all assassins sent by the prince, the blame could not be placed on him.
I immediately agreed: "Don't worry, Prince. I will do my best to help you achieve hegemony."
The two of them had the same goal and hit it off immediately.
It was decided to send out all the trained experts.
Since you have taken action, you must succeed.
Because Li Ye's threat to them is too great.
A prince who holds military power makes them extremely wary.
After Li Ye arranged the affairs of Annan, he received the imperial edict.
Let him delegate the task to local officials.
He led most of the army back to Beijing.
Li Ye obeyed the imperial edict, quickly arranged the personnel, and took charge of the relevant matters.
He couldn't wait to lead his troops back to the capital.
Even Zhao Wudi was very surprised.
Li Ye is like a local emperor here, controlling everything in Annan.
He gave up without hesitation.
He was amazed by this courage.
On the way back, Zhao Wudi couldn't help but ask, "Is it true that Your Highness has no interest in power?
If Your Highness finds a reason to insist on staying, the Emperor will definitely agree.
Besides, the people with the surname Qi who migrated here all admire Your Highness immensely.
Wouldn't it be better for Your Highness to take charge of Annan and ask the Emperor to confer the title of Annan upon Your Highness?"
"What's so good about it? I have to deal with so much government affairs every day. It's so annoying.
I still like to be a free and easy prince, and later a free and easy prince.
As long as the prince doesn't commit suicide, I will never go against him."
After hearing this, Zhao Wudi became anxious.
"Your Highness, don't think like that! If it was just business before, it would be fine, but the situation is different now.
His Highness led the army to victory many times and even destroyed the Kingdom of Annan in one fell swoop.
This means that His Highness has great influence in the military.
Even if you return to the capital and give up everything, neither the Crown Prince nor the Third Prince will let you go easily.
They will regard you as the biggest threat and want to eliminate you as soon as possible."
Li Ye looked at Zhao Wudi with a half-smile: "I thought you only knew how to fight and didn't understand the affairs of the court!
I didn’t expect to understand it so clearly! "
Zhao Wudi stopped pretending and said seriously, "In the past, I was only loyal to the emperor and never cared about the struggles in the court.
I believe that Your Highness is the best candidate to inherit the throne.
Since you are the future emperor, I will of course do my utmost to assist Your Highness."
Li Ye immediately reprimanded him, "Don't say such outrageous words. If the emperor hears about this, he might think I'm planning a rebellion."
"Your Highness, don't worry! The Emperor is also very optimistic about your Highness!
Moreover, supporting His Highness does not mean I am betraying the Emperor. Even the Emperor would prefer an outstanding prince to inherit the throne and ensure the prosperity of the Dayuan Dynasty."
Zhao Wudi is a very straightforward person and says whatever he thinks.
I don't care what others think.
This is also the reason why Li Xuantian trusts him very much.
Li Ye didn't take it to heart and said with a smile: "Even if the Crown Prince and the Third Prince want to deal with me, let them come at me.
If there is anyone who can really hurt me, it will make me look up to them.
If you don’t even have this kind of ability, you’re not worthy of a grassroots party.”
Zhao Wudi was completely speechless.
Even with such words, Li Ye didn't take it to heart.
The fight between the princes is not a simple matter of emotion.
Since he took action, he must have wanted to kill Li Ye.
㳔It was too late to regret then.
But no matter how Zhao Wudi persuaded him, Li Ye didn't take it to heart.
Zhao Wudi could only give up for the time being.
Find a confidant to protect Li Ye's safety more closely
I was afraid that Li Ye would be too careless and lose his life.
Princess Ruyue did not persuade Li Ye in person.
However, when the army was resting, only the two of them were left.
Princess Ruyue then said, "I think what Zhao Wudi said makes a lot of sense.
The third prince has been fighting for the throne and is the crown prince's biggest rival.
His strength should not be underestimated.
Now that you have shown your ability to threaten them, both the Third Prince and the Crown Prince will do their best to deal with you.
Their methods are extremely ruthless, so you must not be too careless."
Li Ye smiled and said, "Of course I know that! But what can you do to me?
Do you want me to take the initiative to deal with them after I return to Beijing?
If I really do that, then wouldn’t I become the unreasonable person even if I am right?"
Princess Ruyue's beautiful eyes widened.
"Are you deliberately pretending not to care, letting the other party make the move first and then grabbing their weakness?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "Great, you figured it out so quickly. It seems your little brain is quite flexible."
"You look down on me. Actually, I knew you had an idea.
But Zhao Wudi and I are both trustworthy people, so there's no need to hide it from us, right?"
"No, if you asked me I would have told you long ago!
However, Zhao Wudi's performance is better and can better paralyze the enemy.
I guess the Crown Prince and the Third Prince have been unable to sit still after hearing the news.
We'll do it on our way back.
Just wait and see, our journey will definitely not be boring!"
