Chapter 1789

"But the premise is that you can really help Mrs. Liu through this crisis. Whenever you do it, I will give you something."

The Empress Dowager added that she couldn't let Gu Chen do what he said, she had to wait for him to fulfill his promise.

"It's natural." Gu Chen had no objection, and the two had reached an agreement.

"In the face of a national crisis, please Mr. Chen help as soon as possible." The Queen Mother urged with anticipation.

"Don't worry, it's not time for me to make a move." Gu Chen waved to Tang Xuance who was in the distance, and he trotted over immediately. How could he have the demeanor of an army commander?

After arriving, he exchanged eyes with the Empress Dowager, seeing her nodding slightly, with joy on her face, knowing that the Empress Dowager had successfully persuaded Chen Gongfeng!

"Patriarch Tang, please send someone to secretly spread the news about me. As for what to spread, don't I need to say more? I'm very assured of your ability to leak secrets." Gu Chen said indifferently.

Hearing the sarcasm in these words, Tang Xuance looked slightly embarrassed, but still nodded hurriedly. "Follow Mr. Chen's orders."

These two people talked with care like gold, a bit like playing charades, and the empress dowager beside him couldn't help asking: "What news are you spreading?"

Tang Xuance immediately looked at Gu Chen, and seeing that Gu Chen had no objection, he explained it to the Queen Mother. "Qi Queen Mother, King Pei has just passed away, and Prince Wulie is so powerful. Out of self-preservation, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty may choose to let Prince Wulie be at his mercy."

"Aren't those ministers in the court already traitors?" The Queen Mother said bitterly.

"No, some of the officials have already followed Prince Wulie, but most of them are just fools. When the royal family is hopeless, these people choose to obey Prince Wulie for their own benefit."

"As far as I know, there are a small number of people who betrayed the royal family because their lives were threatened."

"In the current situation, if we want to stabilize the Peiguo court, we must first not completely oppose the officials, and even try to win their support again."

"Mr. Chen asked me to spread his identity to the outside world. As long as the officials know that Mr. Chen is from the Chen family and he is on the side of the royal family, this alone will be enough to shake the walls of the officials. At least dare not openly confront our next actions. And those officials who have been coerced before are more likely to stand on our side."

"To put it bluntly, Prince Wulie brought Dasheng's authority to overwhelm others, and Mr. Chen will do the same next time!"

After Tang Xuance finished speaking, the Empress Dowager understood it immediately, and was quite happy in his heart. There is another benefit of the news being spread, that is, Mr. Chen will not be able to go back on his word, and her royal family has more protection!

Tang Xuance had indeed guessed what Gu Chen was thinking, but he didn't know that Gu Chen felt quite helpless right now.

Gu Chen still heard about the identities of the so-called members of the Chen family from Tang Xuance. Until now, he still doesn't know how big the background of the Chen family is, and what consequences may be brought by falsely using their identities.

However, the development of things is often unsatisfactory. After Prince Wulie intervened in the current situation of the Pei Kingdom, and even blatantly assassinated King Pei at the banquet, he no longer had much choice.

There are thousands of races in this world, and the heroes are divided, and personal force is often difficult to shake the power.

With his strength, he could easily massacre anyone in the ruling and opposition parties of Peiguo, but if he wanted to conquer people's hearts, it would be very difficult to do so with Chen Yi's status as a casual cultivator.

In the same way, he was not afraid of Prince Wulie, even if the other party was protected by layers of crow generals, if he tried his best, he would still have the confidence to kill him.

So what if he just killed Prince Wulie? Once he was killed, it would immediately attract revenge from the Dasheng Dynasty, and even if he could escape at that time, Peiguo would be doomed.

Gu Chen's original intention was to support Peiguo. If he wanted to make Peiguo stronger step by step, he must not anger such a behemoth as the Dasheng Dynasty before its national strength was sufficient.

So the choice before him was obvious.

Only by making mistakes and pretending to be members of the Chen clan, can it be possible to temporarily stabilize the Peiguo court, and it will also allow him to have more room to negotiate with Prince Wulie, so as to avoid directly fighting to the death.

Such an approach is very imprudent, but it is the approach that Gu Chen is most likely to achieve the desired result after considering various actions...

Now that we have a preliminary strategy, the next thing to do is to guide the situation in the direction we want. Gu Chen looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Let all the princes take a good rest today and adjust their mentality. I want to meet them one by one."

Of course the queen mother knew what Gu Chen was going to do when she saw the princes, she nodded repeatedly.

...

Shao Mansion, as soon as Shao Jianmin came back, he sat on a chair with a gloomy face and didn't say a word for a long time.

Shao Jianwu was beside him, and he could understand the mood of the eldest brother at the moment.

Originally, if King Pei could be forced to abdicate smoothly today, his Shao family would have made great contributions to Prince Wulie.

However, the development of the matter was out of control at all. The existence of Chen Yi, the priest of the Tang family, caused Taohua Layman to miss, and also made King Pei rely on him, swearing to die.

In the end, although King Pei was still dead, it was Prince Wulie who left him behind, and the credit of his Shao family was gone!

Not only is the credit gone, but their performance today may have disappointed Prince Wulie, otherwise he would not have given an ultimatum before leaving!

If it's the only thing, that's all. The other thing is even worse.

Judging from the circumstances of Chen Yi's attack, his eldest brother's son, Shao Heyang, the young master of the Shao family, was very likely killed by Chen Yi!

With the pain of bereavement and the fate of the family at stake, it's no wonder his elder brother is in a good mood.

"Help me contact the ministers, and say that Shao will invite you to a banquet tonight." Shao Jianmin thought for a long time, then raised his head and ordered Shao Jianwu to say.

Shao Jianwu nodded quickly, knowing that his elder brother wanted to reorganize the relationship with the ministers. At this juncture, the relationship with the ministers must not be lost.

"Also, the spy from the Qiankun Society who came to the door before, tried to contact, and said that I had important information to inform!" Shao Jianmin's eyes suddenly flashed coldly.

"Brother wants to use the hands of the Qiankunhui to kill that Chen Yi?" Shao Jianwu's eyes lit up, and he quickly understood Shao Jianmin's intentions.

Shao Jianmin sneered, "Shortly after Luomen disappeared, the spies of the Qiankun Society contacted us, and what we heard from Prophet Dong, it can be seen that the big man surnamed Gu cares about Luomen very much. Yuan Jie from Holy Island has a lot of connections, as long as we tell the spies of the Qiankun Society about this, that guy will naturally go on and on! He killed my son, how can this matter be let go?"

Shao Jianmin originally thought that Taohua Layman could kill Gu Chen, but after Prince Wulie appeared, he thought he would do it. Who would have thought that these two people would disappoint him, and Gu Chen's display of strength also made him feel anxious.

In this case, he can only find a way to use other forces to avenge the killing of the son and solve the hidden danger!

"Brother is really powerful. The first move is a killer move. I'm afraid that Chen Yi died without knowing that he was tricked by us."

Shao Jianwu said with a sinister smile, he got up and was about to complete the task that Shao Jianmin had given him.

"Be careful when contacting the secret agents of the Qiankun Society. Don't forget that the prince of Dasheng is also a member of the Qiankun Society. If Prince Wulie finds out that he has misunderstood something, we will be in trouble." Shao Jianmin was careful, and before leaving Just a reminder.

"Don't worry brother, I know the seriousness of the matter." Shao Jianwu vowed to leave.
