Dynasty Call: Low-Key Struggle for Hegemony

Chapter 268 Cheng Yu Looks for Li Yuan

In the early morning, Xiao Yezi placed a large table of breakfast on the stone table in the courtyard. Li Yuan, who had already sat down, looked curiously at Jia Xu and Cheng Yu who were greeting him respectfully in front of him.

"Wen He and Zhong De, you two came to see me early in the morning. What's the urgent matter?"

Li Yuan casually motioned for Jia Xu and Cheng Yu to sit down. Xiao Zizi skillfully helped Jia Xu and Cheng Yu fill a bowl of clear meat porridge. Jia Xu smiled at Xiao Zizi and sat down peacefully. Cheng Yu took the bowl handed over by Xiao Zizi with both hands. Porridge, carefully sitting opposite Li Yuan, said with a serious face:

"Your Highness, I heard that the battle in Fengzhou is about to decide the winner."

Li Yuan finished the meat porridge at his mouth, put down the bowl, glanced at Jia Xu, who kept smiling lightly, and looked at Cheng Yu:

"Zhongde, what is your opinion on the situation in Fengzhou?"

Li Yuan's eyes stayed on Cheng Yu. Since Jia Xu came with Cheng Yu early in the morning, it meant that Cheng Yu already knew the specific situation in Fengzhou.

"I went to Wenhe's house last night and was about to reminisce with Wenhe. After waiting for a long time, I saw Wenhe rushing back with worries, so I became a little curious, so Wenhe communicated with me about the situation in Fengzhou." Cheng Yu put the bowl down with both hands. On the stone table, he showed a humble smile: "Wei Chen has different opinions on this."

"Oh?" Li Yuan's heart moved, and he sat up straight unconsciously, "Zhongde, please speak."

"Your Highness, do you want to support King Ming?" Cheng Yu looked at Li Yuan. He needed to know Li Yuan's attitude towards King Ming.

Li Yuan did not hide it, nodded and said: "I really want to support King Ming."

"In addition to our joint efforts, another main reason why we were able to capture Huanzhou so smoothly was because of King Ming's concession. I cannot ignore this sentiment."

Love always has to be repaid, and the sooner it can be repaid, the better.

Especially when you are about to become an opponent, it can easily affect your decision during the battle.

Both Jia Xu and Cheng Yu understand this truth.

Although he understands, it is not certain whether he agrees or disagrees. Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness, King Ming made this decision just to express his apology. After all, his advisers once planned to assassinate Your Highness. This is something that he cannot erase no matter what." stain."

"I understand that this is just one of the reasons. Since there are shadows of other dynasties behind the Fengzhou battle, the assassins who assassinated me on the spot are also among them. I naturally want revenge!

Secondly, the Rihui Dynasty and the Nanming Dynasty were so ambitious that they had the courage to invade the dynasty.

For the public, we and other members of the royal family are naturally obligated to clear them out. For the private, I am afraid that King Ming will not be able to deal with them, but will just drive them out of the border. In the future, after we capture Fengzhou, these two border dynasties will also be Our hidden dangers. "

Li Yuan has a long-term view. He is a cautious person. As he said, what if King Ming fails to solve these two dynasties?

It is not impossible that Prince Ming is arrogant.

"But now that King Ming has not requested our support, it is impossible for our army to enter Fengzhou." Jia Xu showed a wry smile at the right time.

The current situation is obvious. Everyone knows that King Ming has won. What does it mean that King Chu suddenly marches into Fengzhou at this time?

Say you think King Ming is in danger and go to help King Ming?

Not to mention whether Wang Yifang believes it or not, even his own people may not believe it.

Li Yuan nodded, sighing in his eyes, and he was a little confused.

In the current situation, if King Ming loses, it will be of great benefit to him. He can immediately march to Fengzhou and defeat the two dynasties.

Gain fame and fortune!

If King Ming wins, how should I put it, King Ming's prestige will greatly increase in the Dayu Dynasty.

Since he was his opponent, he had the initiative to start the war, which made Li Yuan very uncomfortable.

After all, it was impossible for him to take the initiative to attack King Ming.

King Ming had just defeated two invading dynasties and belonged to the heroic stage of the dynasty.

What would happen if I attacked King Ming at this time?

King Ming was fighting with the two great dynasties, both sides suffered losses, and he took advantage of it?

It would be disgraceful to win, and if I always promote the name of benevolence and righteousness, it would be a slap in my face.

But it would be different if he participated in the battle to attack the two dynasties.

Cheng Yu asked the second time: "Your Highness, do you think King Ming can win?"

"The Rihui Dynasty and the Nanming Dynasty are among the best dynasties in the borders of the states of the Dayu Dynasty. Their strength is naturally extraordinary. If you add another hidden dynasty, even if King Ming has a back-up, the outcome will be unpredictable." Li Yuan shook his head and analyzed.

King Ming is indeed very strong, but if the others are not vegetarians.

When planning Fengzhou, he dared to send someone to assassinate him first, which shows that the person behind it is not simple.

Cheng Yu suddenly laughed and said: "His Highness can't see that King Ming is sure of victory in this battle, and wants to support King Ming, so why don't we send people to enter Fengzhou secretly?"

"Entering Fengzhou secretly?" Li Yuan's eyes lit up, but then they wrinkled again.

Jia Xu on the side also spoke:

“Sending troops to sneak into Fengzhou is very difficult.

First, the army we send must be strong, so that it can be helpful to King Ming. However, if the army we send is large, it will be easily discovered by the Ming army, which will more easily cause misunderstanding on the part of King Ming.

Second, we cannot send more powerful Dharma Masters to take action, otherwise we will be empty internally. What if the hidden dynasty has other means and problems arise in our Huan and Ling states? "

Li Yuan also thought about this problem.

At this time, Cheng Yu said: "It is very possible that Wei Chen came today to remind His Highness of this issue."

Cheng Yu said with a solemn look in his eyes: "Your Highness, since the dynasty behind the scenes can lure the Rihui Dynasty and Nanming Dynasty to attack Fengzhou, why can't they lure the Black Gold Dynasty to attack our Lingzhou border!"

Cheng Yu's words exploded like lightning in Li Yuan's mind.

Li Yuan's eyes changed and his face became a little gloomy. He gradually brought the slightly cold meat porridge to his mouth and swallowed it. The cold meat porridge quickly calmed Li Yuan down.

Li Yuan put down the bowl and looked at Cheng Yu with a look of instruction.

"The king is indeed negligent."

What shocked Li Yuan was not the situation in Lingzhou mentioned by Cheng Yu, but his own mentality.

Li Yuan suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little carried away recently.

Normally, it would be impossible for him to ignore his own power situation.

When Jia Xu saw Li Yuan sinking into self-reflection, a smile of relief appeared in his eyes.

I didn't expect His Highness to notice his problem so quickly.

Jia Xu understood Li Yuan's state of mind very well. Although His Highness had always behaved like a polite corporal during this period, there was a sense of arrogance in his words and actions.

Indeed, in just two years, His Highness unified Lingzhou at such a young age, and then captured Huanzhou in one battle, which would give anyone a strong sense of accomplishment.

His Highness now seems to have everything under his control, and there is a feeling that nothing is more than this.

Although Li Yuan's mentality is very subtle now, it is infinitely magnified in Jia Xu's eyes.

This feeling is dangerous.
