C245 (2/2)
However, this was after all a snack cooked by his sister. He could not throw it away or give it to the servants, so he could only eat it by himself. He had to open the box and admire the pastries. It had to be said that the queen's culinary skills were quite good. Her exquisite pastries were like many pieces of art.
”Mm …”
Just as CHEN Han emissary was about to open the dessert, he suddenly realized that there was a small piece of bamboo inside. Without moving, he chased the servants away, then went back to his room and pulled out the piece of bamboo from his spot in his heart.
”Wu Qi.”
There was only one word on that small piece of bamboo, but CHEN Han emissary immediately understood what the queen meant. Since King Chen could not listen to his advice, he had to give it some advice. The CHEN Han emissary deduced that even though the Queen was ignored, the Queen was still very clear about everything that happened in the palace. Furthermore, the Queen was in favour of the agreement that he had reached with the Han people.
But the armies of the Chen Han were all controlled by Yin Di, and the palace guards were all controlled by the King Chen, what kind of power did he have to teach them a lesson? With those hundred plus emissary guards, perhaps even the palace guards wouldn't be enough to defeat them.
Just as he was thinking about that, a servant suddenly came in and reported that the First Prince had come. The First Prince was the Queen's biological son and also the successor to the King Chen. He was in charge of the royal guards. Suddenly, he understood. Could it be that the First Prince was called by the Queen?
”Greetings His Royal Highness. The streets are in chaos, His Royal Highness, what orders do you have to hit this old one? ” CHEN Han emissary was not sure of First Prince's motive for coming here, but he had no choice but to open his mouth to probe. At this time, he had to be extremely careful, the King Chen did not allow him to meet anyone casually, if he let the King Chen know that he was at home meeting the First Prince, the King Chen would not forgive him.
First Prince was a tall, sturdy man, which was not common in the Chen Han. He bowed to the prince and then stood quietly beside him. Although he was a noble Uncle Wang, he was still an official in front of the princes, so he had no choice but to stand.
”Uncle Wang, the people in Imperial City are all busy preparing to escape, why aren't you prepared?” First Prince laughed and said indifferently.
”Chen Han is only such a small place, where can we go? Even if she ran into the mountains, what could she do? Even Pitiful Moslems was hiding in the mountains, wasn't it already destroyed by the Han army? ” No matter what, the First Prince was still his nephew.
”Uncle Wang, do we really have no hope at all?” At that time when the First Prince was not in the imperial court, he had to personally listen to what the Uncle Wang had to say.
Finally, he said, ”His Royal Highness, the current situation is, regardless of whether we agree to it or not, the Han Army's Iron Heel has already entered the Chen Han. There are only two paths for us, either death or surrender. The ministers who encouraged His Royal Highness Prince Chen to hide in the mountains were afraid of losing their official positions, because they wanted to think for themselves. His Royal Highness, please think about it, didn't Pitiful Moslems also hide in the mountains, but weren't they exterminated too? ”
”Uncle Wang is right.” First Prince nodded his head, his expression turning serious: ”Uncle Wang, right now, the Han army is invincible, the people in Imperial City are panicking, but the ministers are still fighting for power and the Father is still hesitating, Uncle Wang, what should we do to save the people in Chen Han?”
”Well, I'll be frank. His Royal Highness, are you able to control the palace? ” CHEN Han emissary suddenly felt that at the very end, if he did not make a move now and then, he would really become the Mute Eunuch of the Han Chinese. Even if they did not succeed, they could still bring their tribes and surrender to the Chinese. It could be said that they had preserved a trace of bloodline for the people of Chen Han.
”Absolutely!” As the Crown Prince, First Prince was in charge of the palace guards, he had absolute confidence in controlling the palace.
”There's no time to lose, we'll immediately make our move, I'll follow you back to the palace and control the King Chen, then give him an order to remove Yin Di from his duties, and let me take over the position of Grand Commander. Then, immediately send people to capture all the ministers, I will lead some people to take over the Chen Han's army. ” Although she only had a little more than 100 people, with King Chen's orders, even those Generals wouldn't dare to disobey.
”Uncle Wang, what should we do now?” No matter what, that was his Father, he did not want to have the reputation of murdering his father and seizing the throne on his back.
”After we capture those ministers, we can try to persuade King Chen. He will change his mind.” After all, this was the King Chen, and he did not plan to do anything to it. Since he was about to surrender to the Chinese anyway, that throne no longer had any meaning. The reason why King Chen didn't want to surrender was because he couldn't bear to give up his current position.
