Chapter 144 The Egg that Hits the Stone

Ji Yucang leaned on the wide couch, looking at the dancers in the palace boredly. After a dance, he waved his hand: "I am tired. The morning court will be officially resumed tomorrow morning. If there is anything, let's talk about it at the morning court tomorrow."

The dancers bowed and left in a line.

The ministers stood up and bowed to see them off.

Ji Yucang naturally signaled to Shen Ning, and the couple quickly stood up and left.

As soon as they left, Princess Pingyao naturally did not stay any longer. She held Qin Yumo's hand and walked out step by step like the queen mother going out for a trip.

Ji Ling and the other two looked at each other, no one spoke, and stood up silently and left the hall.

Looking at Ji Yucang and Shen Ning walking away, Ji Ling said calmly: "What do you think the regent means by this?"

Ji Mo's eyes were deep: "The territory of Nanzhao was conquered by the army under the regent. He probably won't be willing to give up the kingdom he conquered to others."

As soon as Ji Yucang left, they no longer looked respectful and flattering, and even stopped calling him uncle.

Ji Han looked indifferent: "Things haven't come to the last step yet, you don't have to rush to make a conclusion."

After saying this, he walked away.

"What does he mean by this?" Ji Mo frowned and turned to look at Ji Ling.

"I guess he hasn't given up yet?" Ji Ling smiled meaningfully, "I just don't know what tricks he can use."

The Yong Kingdom's troops are in Ji Yucang's hands, and the territory of Nanzhao is now in Ji Yucang's hands.

The whole court of civil and military officials plus the royal princes are not enough for Ji Yucang to order.

What else can they do?

...

Ji Han naturally has his own tricks.

But he would not speak directly to Ji Ling and Ji Mo. After all, there can only be one person who can hold the supreme position. If they all knew about it and they got the upper hand, would he still have the strength to fight for it?

Returning to the palace, he summoned his confidant and ordered him to rush the letter to Mobei.

It is true that the Regent King had just conquered Nanzhao.

But the most elite troops of the army are currently stationed in Nanzhao, and the army that followed back is less than half of the original strength. If the Mobei army swept in at this time, would Ji Yucang, who had just finished a war, have to return to the border again?

Ji Han stood in front of the window and smiled coldly.

The Yong Kingdom was passed down by his father. Since ancient times, the family property has only been passed down from father to son, and has never been passed down from brother to brother.

Ji Yucang's contribution is not small, but if his father is still alive, he will never agree to let Ji Yucang take over the throne.

...

Returning to the Regent Palace, Ji Yucang and Shen Ning went to bathe and change clothes.

When they came out, dinner was ready. There were eight exquisite and rich dishes, all of which were the tastes they liked.

Ji Yucang changed into a loose and casual casual suit, and the whole person lost some of his sharpness and coldness, and looked more lazy and harmless.

Shen Ning sat down opposite him and said lightly: "The King of Qi and the King of Yan should have had ideas about the throne, right?"

"They have had ideas about the throne for a long time, but they never had the chance before." Ji Yucang drank a mouthful of soup before picking up chopsticks to eat, "They were smart before and knew how to avoid the edge, so that the king and the emperor would fight each other and lose, and they could sit back and reap the benefits."

How could Ji Yucang not understand the thoughts of the three brothers?

It's just that I was too lazy to pay attention to it before.

"Before, you were in poor health and poisoned. They probably expected that you would die sooner or later. If they could use you to deal with the emperor, the three of them would be much easier." Shen Ning smiled calmly, "After all, dealing with you is like hitting a rock with an egg. Dealing with the emperor, they are plotting to usurp the throne. Let you deal with the emperor, and the one plotting to usurp the throne is you, and even if you, the usurper, don't die at the hands of the emperor, you will die from the poison. By then, the three of them..."

Speaking of this, Shen Ning suddenly paused, and then laughed: "The three of them are evenly matched, and it will be much easier to fight. It depends on who can gather more ministers and who can kill the other first."

However, Ji Yucang is in good health, the poison has been removed, and he can lead troops to the battlefield.

This is far beyond the expectations of the three eggs. How can they sit still when their preconceived plans are destroyed?

Ji Yucang's mouth corners slightly raised: "Three eggs? This description is good."

Shen Ning smiled and said nothing more, lowered his eyes to eat.

Ji Ling, Ji Mo, Ji Han and the current emperor Ji Jin, in Shen Ning's view, are all eggs that are trying to hit the stone with an egg. They are not very capable, but their appetite is not small.

The only difference is that Ji Jin's egg was sent to a high place by his father himself, occupying a "legitimate" position. Since Ji Yucang can break this rule and think of deposing the emperor and establishing another one, he naturally doesn't care about usurping the throne.

The other three eggs should not have the idea of ​​being unjustified, so their sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight is untenable.

What's more, three weak eggs that will break at a single blow really dare to hit the stone?
