For the next two or three days, the entire Fengjueguo’s capital city seemed unusually quiet. Yuanfengguo’s troops outside the city were stationed there, and there was still no sign of attacking the city, and the defenders in the city were just Looking at it, there was no intention to take the initiative to leave the city. It seemed that the two sides had reached a tacit understanding, and each other existed in such a quiet way.
However, some people in the city have felt the undercurrent surging in this tranquil atmosphere, and it seems that major events are happening at any time, especially those defenders at the head of the city, who have been active in the past few days. It seems to be preparing for something.
"His Royal Highness, I have heard the news that the general surnamed Yan who is in charge of guarding the city gate will leave the barracks and go home tonight. This is a good opportunity for us to do it!" On this day, the staff who was trusted by the four princes came to Si The prince said to each other in front of him.
"The news is true?" the fourth prince asked eagerly.
In the past few days, the four princes are indeed very anxious, because they can't take the initiative to go out of the city to fight, he feels that the princes in the city are more and more active, although he did not pay too much attention to those people, but, after all, they The identity of the prince is still a threat to himself.
And what makes the four princes most unbearable is that those princes have been in constant contact with his generals during this period of time. The four princes know that the generals under his hand do not recognize and respect themselves in their hearts. Yes, many of them only obeyed their own commands because they accepted the orders of the old emperor.
Now, the other princes are frequently in contact with the generals. If they want to win over those people, it would be better if the time is shorter. However, if the time is long, it is still very likely that some generals will be caught by the other princes. To win over, so the four princes must do something as soon as possible.
And the best way to deal with this situation is undoubtedly to get in touch with this war with Yuanfeng country as soon as possible, and end the war in the way they won. In that case, other princes would have no chance to win over those generals. And with this achievement, he can gain the approval of those generals, and the most important thing is to get the approval of the old emperor. When that happens, no prince can threaten him.
It was just that Yuanfeng State had been standing still, and the Fourth Prince was blocked in the city again. Therefore, even if he wanted to fight Yuanfeng State's army very much, he couldn't do it.
According to the previous plan of him and the staff, they had to get rid of the generals surnamed Yan who was sent by the old emperor to guard the city gate. After that, they could take control of the city gate. However, they could take the army out of the city but defeated it. The army of Yuanfeng State was unprepared.
However, in the past few days, the general surnamed Yan has been staying in the barracks. The fourth prince tried to see the other party, or let the other party come to see him. However, the other side thanked the guest behind closed doors, and no one saw him. As for the fourth prince Bian's summons, he also refused on the grounds that guarding the city gate was of great importance and could not leave the camp without authorization, so that the four princes could directly convey any order through the soldiers.
To put it bluntly, the general surnamed Yan now can't be seen by anyone, even if it is his fourth prince. Therefore, although the fourth prince has already decided what to do, he has never had the opportunity to do it.
Of course, the four princes can also lead their troops to attack the camp, but, let’s not say whether they can be defeated, even if they are defeated, the opponent will probably slip away early, and then he will have to bear the old emperor. His anger is obviously not worth the gain.
But now, the opportunity finally came. The general surnamed Yan was finally leaving the camp, giving the four princes a chance to seize or even kill him.
"The news is true!" said the staff: "This is the news that I have spent a lot of money to find out. That general surnamed Yan will go home once a week at this time, but he sees his wife and children, and tonight, The time he went home!"
This staff member is still very keen on this matter. Although they have never had a chance during this period, he has been working hard to find or create opportunities, and now, he has really found this opportunity.
"Furthermore, the general surnamed Yan would go home secretly every time he went home, and he would not bring too many guards with him. Your Highness, this is our best opportunity!" The staff member said to the four princes.
After the fourth prince heard this, his face was also very excited. After waiting for so long, he finally made him wait for this opportunity!
In fact, it’s not surprising that the general surnamed Yan will go home secretly. His position is not low. At the gate of the city, no one can control him. If he is homesick, he will go back secretly. No one will say anything. Just don’t let the old emperor know about it. After all, it’s a critical period of war. The old emperor might get angry if he leaves his post without authorization. Therefore, even if the general surnamed Yan went home, he would go back secretly, and then the next morning. Back to the camp.
Of course, the four princes would not choose to go to the old emperor to report the general surnamed Yan. That would not do him much. Now the old emperor trusts the general surnamed Yan so much. Even if he knows that the other party has secretly returned home, he will probably not be punished severely. , Just like the former general surnamed Yan closed the city gate and refused to allow troops outside the city to enter the city, he did not receive heavy punishment from the old emperor.
Therefore, the four princes did not intend to file a complaint at all this time. Instead, they wanted to use this opportunity to kill the general surnamed Yan. After that, he will be charged with another crime. Then, everything will be in accordance with what they had done before. The plan is underway.
"It's a good opportunity!" said the fourth prince: "In this way, quickly take someone to ambush, this time you must kill him, don't let others lead the team, I don't believe it, this time you lead the team yourself, you must kill him. he!"
The four princes have always been concerned about the fact that there is an inner ghost around him. Although it is difficult to find the inner ghost in a short period of time, they can hold the other party and prevent the other party from knowing their chances of action. , And the staff in front of him is obviously a trustworthy and suitable candidate.
"Yes! Your majesty, don't worry, I will definitely complete this task!" the staff member promised.
This is an opportunity. As long as the general surnamed Yan can be successfully killed this time, and then they go out of the city to defeat Yuanfeng’s army outside the city, then they will win here, and the four princes will definitely become the next emperor. , And he played an important role in this process, I believe the four princes will not forget.
