Chapter 284 Li Heng’s Conjecture
"Your Highness, Lieutenant Qin has entered Jingmu Palace."
In the study room of Prince Xuan's Mansion, in a familiar corner, a tall shadow wearing eunuch uniform loomed.
The expert factory supervises all aspects of the palace and is the first to get the news.
King Heng suddenly turned around and stared at Liu Jin.
"Captain Qin Yi!"
"Isn't this old guy always staying neutral? Why would he go to Li Mujun?"
"I don't know," Liu Jin shook his head.
The fact that a powerful figure in the imperial court sought out the eldest princess Li Mujun at this time was a major event that shocked the civil and military officials of the court.
"Haha, would they rather have a woman preside over the court than a prince?"
There was a hint of anger between Li Heng's brows. He had visited Qin Yi many times but was rejected. How could Li Mujun be visited by Qin Yi in person?
Liu Jin raised his head slightly, with a sinister look in his eyes, and sneered:
"For them, the eldest princess is much easier to deal with than Your Highness."
"His Majesty Emperor Yao is in coma, and letting the eldest princess preside over the court is in line with too many people's expectations."
Li Heng understood what Liu Jin meant, but he was still unhappy inside. He slowly closed his eyes to calm down his somewhat irritable mood.
After a while, Li Heng opened his eyes and felt calm inside. Now that things had happened, no amount of anger was useless.
"Brother Three Emperors has already defeated the Liangzhou Alliance. What do you think he plans to do next after taking Yangzhou?"
A hint of complexity flashed in Li Heng's eyes, and when King Yu took Yangzhou, he also showed a hint of impatience.
Now Dayu's situation is too fast. King Yu captured Liangzhou in one battle. According to the intelligence of Fengzhou, King Ming is about to unify.
Then Zhongzhou will soon become a place for kings to compete for.
Li Yao fell into a coma. It was originally a God-given opportunity, but he didn't expect that Li Mujun would check him.
Sure enough, the person behind the poisoning of Li Yao had already thought about all this.
"This..., my subordinates don't know." Liu Jin also showed his nervousness. His current status depends entirely on Emperor Yao and Prince Heng. Any one of them can preside over the court, but it must not be Prince Yu, Prince Ming, or Prince Xuan.
"Do you think the person who poisoned Li Yao was the Third Emperor Brother?" After Li Heng learned that King Yu had solved the Liangzhou Alliance, the first target he suspected was King Yu.
If he attacks Zhongzhou next, the chance will be great.
"It's possible that my subordinates have dug very deep, but still can't trace any clues. Only the three kings who have stood in Kyoto for many years have such methods." Liu Jin showed an extremely fearful look. No one knew that the three kings were there. What methods are there in the huge Kyoto?
Liu Jin suddenly looked at Li Heng and asked slightly nervously:
"If King Yu is really planning to attack Zhongzhou, what should your Highness do?
Should he resist King Yu or help King Yu? "
Li Heng's eyes flashed, and when he saw Liu Jin's nervous expression, he smiled and said:
"Liu Jin, you don't have to worry, it's impossible for me to help Brother Three Emperors enter Zhongzhou.
What can I gain by helping him enter Zhongzhou?
Now I can still have the strength to confront Li Yao and Li Mujun in the court. If Prince Yu takes Kyoto, with Prince Yu's ability, will I still have the power I have now? I can only be a free prince. "
As Li Heng spoke, he showed a deep sense of unwillingness.
Everyone knew that his role was to check and balance Li Yao. Once King Yu entered Kyoto, how could he still need to check and balance Li Yao? Then his role as Li Heng would be gone.
When a person has no use value, he is nothing.
What's more, Li Heng also wants to control the imperial court and become one of the chess players competing for hegemony in the world.
Therefore, the overall goals of Li Heng, Li Yao, and Li Mujun are the same.
Therefore, Li Heng could boldly say that he and King Yu were originally using each other. King Yu needed someone to contain Li Yao, and Li Heng also needed support to suppress Li Yao.
It’s clear to each other.
And if Li Heng overwhelms Li Yao, then King Yu will withdraw these sent people, or even turn around and join Li Yao's side.
Not only King Yu, but also King Xuan and King Ming.
They would help whichever party in the court was weak.
They just want balance in the court!
Liu Jin nodded, but said a little worriedly: "Then the people sent by King Yu to His Highness will..."
Li Heng was able to compete with Li Yao and the others without the help of King Yu, who had many people under his command.
"There is no need to worry about this. If Brother Three Emperors wants to attack Zhongzhou, Li Mujun should be the most anxious." Li Heng couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Taiwei Qin going to Li Mujun.
"Moreover, if the Third Emperor Brother is not stupid, he would not be able to attack Zhongzhou first."
Li Heng affirmed why he and Li Yao want to control the imperial court because the imperial court has always been the strongest.
In addition to Fang Wukui's 700,000-strong army, the imperial court also had more than 2 million elite troops, all of whom were brave and good at fighting.
How could King Yu be so stupid as to attack Zhongzhou alone?
But then again, why did Qin Yi suddenly join Li Mujun?
Li Heng didn't understand this very much.
This is the current captain of the court. He has always maintained neutrality and no one dares to shake him. Why should he end up?
Um……?
An idea flashed in Li Heng's mind, and he seemed to have thought of something. He said with a shocked face:
"Could Qin Yi be from the Three Kings?"
Liu Jin suddenly raised his head and was shocked by Li Heng's bold idea.
"Liu Jin is now going to find out what Taiwei Qin and Li Mujun said? If Taiwei Qin is really one of theirs, and Taiwei Qin, who has always remained neutral, is exposed, this person must have a deeper plan. He is probably the one who poisoned Li Yao The mastermind behind this!”
Li Heng's tone was exciting and urgent, and he felt a deep chill in his heart. What kind of shocking plan did this person have to expose Taiwei Qin at this time?
"yes!"
Liu Jin's eyes narrowed, and she thought of the huge conspiracy hidden behind it.
Seeing Liu Jin's figure slowly disappearing from the study, Li Heng's face was very solemn. Now that the person behind the scenes has been exposed to Lieutenant Qin, his plan will be realized quickly, leaving no room for anyone to react.
Li Heng took a deep breath: Tomorrow morning!
His eyes slowly looked in the direction of Jingmu Palace, and now he actually hoped that Li Mujun would be smarter and not be fooled by the person behind the scenes.
Sure enough, less than an hour after Taiwei Qin Yi left Jingmu Palace, the news that Taiwei Qin visited the eldest princess spread throughout Kyoto.
Many officials were shocked. For them, Taiwei Qin's visit to the eldest princess contained too much information, which was enough to sway the decisions of many undecided officials.
The capital city on this day is destined to be difficult to calm down.
Wow!
Homing pigeons flew to all directions in the city.
There are undercurrents surging in countless families in Kyoto, and all eyes are focused on the morning meeting tomorrow.
Perhaps tomorrow morning, the initial struggle between King Heng and Li Mujun will be over.
