The Third Prince immediately became interested: "What good strategies do you have?"
Shi Wushuang raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a hint of coldness.
“Li Ye just won a battle, but His Highness hasn’t formally congratulated him yet.
Why not set up a banquet here to celebrate for him?
As long as he agrees.
When coming from the base, at most they would bring an army for protection.
Let the barbarians send an elite army to ambush on the road.
Wouldn't it be possible to kill him?"
"Isn't this method too risky? If I don't succeed, he'll definitely figure it out.
Even if they succeeded, the imperial court would definitely investigate since such a huge crime had occurred.
This is too dangerous for me!"
The third prince seemed a little hesitant.
He wanted to kill Li Ye, but he definitely didn't want to get himself involved.
Shi Wushuang continued to encourage: "Your Highness, don't worry. Both of you brothers are stationed at the border, so it's normal to invite you over for a reunion.
As for being ambushed by the enemy, that was just bad luck.
Put all the blame on the barbarian army. Your Highness has no responsibility at all.
In addition to the barbarian army ambush, I will also send experts to prepare a second set of ambush.
Even if he could escape, he would die at the hands of the disciples of Yunlu Pavilion.
He was robbed and killed on the way, what does he have to do with His Royal Highness the Third Prince?"
Shi Wushuang saw that the third wife was still hesitant and urged anxiously, "Your Highness, please make a decision quickly.
The emperor's decree has been issued, and Li Ye can use this as an excuse to continue expanding his army.
Once he has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, who can be his opponent?
I'm afraid that the Emperor will ask him to hand over his military power, and if he refuses, the Emperor will be helpless."
The Third Prince gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say! I'll write a letter and have it delivered."
You immediately ask the barbarians to make arrangements.
He must send out more ambush troops and select the most elite ones.
We must hit him with one strike, but we can’t let him escape.”
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will make sure everything is done properly and will not interfere!"
The third prince immediately wrote a letter and asked someone to send it to Li Ye as quickly as possible.
Then he began to prepare for the ambush.
Although Wushuang had also begun preparations, the Third Prince was still a little worried.
He also arranged more than a thousand confidants for himself.
If they all fail in the assassination, their own people will take action.
With three safeguards, I don’t believe that I can’t kill Li Ye.
Li Ye was surprised when he received the letter.
"The Third Prince sent someone to deliver a letter to me? What does he want to do?"
"I don't know, but I always feel that something is wrong!" Princess Ruyue said bluntly.
"㦳The enemy invaded from the front, so I wrote to him and sent troops to support him.
Not only did he keep his own troops in place, he also prevented other garrisons from sending out troops.
He has already regarded you as a thorn in his side and even wants to get rid of you as soon as possible."
Li Ye opened the letter and was even more surprised by its content.
The third prince wrote a few words in a very elegant manner.
Congratulations to Li Ye on his victory, he was also very happy.
A special apology for not being able to send troops to support 㦳 before.
A banquet was set up and Li Ye was invited over.
Li Ye smiled brightly after reading it.
"This is really a case of trying to cover up one's own faults. This is not his style. I really don't know who gave him this idea."
Princess Ruyue came over and took a look at the heart.
"The Third Prince invited you to a banquet? Could he do that given his personality?
This place is full of weirdness, you'd better not go!"
"Humph, I'm so busy feeding the villagers every day, and I have to travel all the way to Jialing Pass to eat. How poor are you?"
Li Ye simply tore up the letter and threw it aside.
He ordered his men, "Go tell the messenger that I'm busy here and can't get away for the time being.
I appreciate Third Brother's kindness.
There's no need to be so polite between us brothers.
They never held any grudge against him for not sending troops to rescue.
Let him rest assured.
Just guard the border well and don't let your father down."
"Ah, just a message for him? Why not a letter to make it more formal?"
Princess Ruyue didn't expect that Li Ye's rejection was not only straightforward, but also very casual.
Given the Third Prince's personality, wouldn't he be furious if he was looked down upon like that?
Li Ye sneered: "We're almost at loggerheads, why are you still writing to him?
It was clearly a Hongmen Banquet, and there might even be assassins lying in ambush on the road.
How can I give him face?"
"That makes sense!" Princess Ruyue didn't say anything else.
Before, she was often invited by the third prince to attend parties.
On the surface, he pretends to be very generous and courteous to others.
Princess Ruyue found that he was very petty.
And he has a temperamental personality and is prone to rage.
He is extremely cruel to those who disobey him.
Ruo is hanging out with Shi Wushuang again.
It has become very dangerous.
Wait for the Third Prince's men to bring back Li Ye's verbal reply.
The third prince was instantly furious.
"Did he really say that and reject it outright?"
Seeing his furious look, his subordinates shrank back in fear: "I have not seen His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince.
The letter was forwarded by someone else.
I was not received at all.
It wasn't long before word got out that he was too busy to come."
The Third Prince was furious, his face livid, and he roared, "He's truly too arrogant. Does he even take me, his Third Brother, seriously?"
Shi Wushuang was also confused. In his opinion, the assassination plan was perfect.
As long as you know the time Li Ye is coming, the route can be easily checked in advance.
It would be easy to set an ambush and kill him.
But he never expected that Li Ye would be so disrespectful to the Third Prince.
The ten that were rejected simply gave up.
It's simply a slap in the face of the Third Prince.
But this way his plan would fail.
Before they had time to notify the barbarians, they had already been declared defeated.
All we can do is continue to add fuel to the fire and cause the two of them to break up completely.
"Your Highness is right, Li Ye has become increasingly arrogant.
It seems that he has regarded you as his strongest competitor in seizing the enemy.
I'm too lazy to even pretend."
"Damn it!" The third prince kicked the table over.
He angrily yelled, "I must kill him!"
"Your Highness, please calm down. Let's plan carefully and we will definitely find an opportunity!
The barbarians still need a batch of iron and food, and I have already prepared some.
It will be delivered soon.
As long as we increase the enemy's strength, they will suffer sooner or later."
Shi Wushuang took the opportunity to instigate him to continue smuggling goods.
As expected, under such rage, the Third Prince had completely lost his ability to think.
As long as it can pose a threat to Li Ye, he is willing to do anything.
"Okay, bring as much as you can and sell it all to the barbarians.
We must make sure they recover their strength as quickly as possible so they can kill Li Ye as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. The barbarians have already regarded him as a thorn in their side and will never let him go if they have the chance."
Seeing that he could make money again, the Third Prince felt a little better.
He also planned to use the money to expand his army and cultivate his own confidants.
Li Ye will do whatever he can do and will never admit defeat.
