Winner in life

As soon as the notice announcing the victory of the war was posted, and the officials specifically guided public opinion, the people's fear and worry about the war immediately disappeared. They should be proud to have such a wise Majesty and such brave and capable soldiers of the Yan Dynasty. Celebrate the New Year, and then celebrate the New Year! At the same time, I also want to congratulate Border City for winning the battle, pray for the soldiers in Border City, and wish them a speedy victory.

To use modern terms, this was perfect PR.

The second prince was a little confused. Wasn't this a waste of effort? What's the point of doing this? Lao Zhao's disciple called himself Takuma. Hearing this, he smiled and shook his head: "I heard that the people of Dayan are very sophisticated and know how to use tricks. How come His Highness the Second Prince is so naive?"

The second prince was furious, was he mocking him? !

"No, no." Takuma looked at him seriously: "You are the Prince of Dayan. Your position is different from mine. What I want is to cause chaos within your Dayan, so that our Yao Kingdom can fight in the war. Take it easy, what about you? Your cooperation with me is, in your words, seeking skin from a tiger, so why are you cooperating with me? "

Do you want me to advise you, your own mother?

Takuma was so sincere that he didn't mean to laugh at all. He was really confused. But this made him more uncomfortable than ridiculing the second prince with explicit words. He was shocked, was he stupid? Yes, Takuma moved for Xi Jue, but what about him? Are you just standing there stupidly waiting for Takuma to fight for him?

It's crazy.

Ever since he learned that "Old Sign" was coming, he felt as if he had gone back more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was physically weak and filled with dark thoughts that could not be relieved. The methods he used to deal with the former prince were like worms shaking a tree, with almost no effect. Later...Lao Zhao came and overturned the majestic mountain in front of him in one fell swoop. Before the second prince even knew it, he had already developed a morbid dependence on this foreigner.

When he rushed back to the palace from the palace that day, he was a little excited in his heart: As long as Lao Zhao takes action, what does the tenth brother mean? Lao Zhao is a capable person who can even eradicate the former prince!

Although the visitor was not Lao Zhao but his apprentice, the second prince subconsciously wanted to rely on him, hoping that the other party would be like Lao Zhao more than twenty years ago and use mysterious means to eliminate his serious troubles again. .

But this is wrong!

The second prince threw up his sleeves and left.

Takuma looked at his back quietly. He remembered the chaotic and crazy emotions that kept rolling in the eyes of the second prince just now, and a proud smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Sure enough, as the master said, this person has been completely eroded by lust. As long as he pushes gently - the thread of reason will break, bringing him the benefits he wants.

Although Takuma was his master's only apprentice, he did not learn all his master's skills. The master said that after that operation more than 20 years ago, he lost most of his abilities. Most of the power of those treacherous manipulations that eroded people's hearts collapsed overnight. Those mysterious methods that were clearly and deeply imprinted in the mind one moment, were like mud roads washed by heavy rain the next moment, all disappeared. .

"That may be my retribution." That's what the master told him back then. Takuma couldn't understand why his master looked so dejected that he looked down upon the world. It was clear that his master had made outstanding contributions to the glory of the country, overthrowing the crown prince of Dayan, and causing the royal family of Dayan to fight for the heir for more than twenty years, and they Yaoguo secretly rebuilt...

Dayasi rewarded the master heavily for this and granted him the title of national shaman. However, the master did not accept it and instead retired. Takuma has been listening to his mother who took care of him since he was a child, talking about his master's feats back then, and he has great respect and admiration for his master. However, every time he curiously asked his master, his master was unwilling to say more.

That is a matter of honor, why does the master always seem to avoid mentioning it?

Takuma couldn't figure it out, and then he stopped thinking about it. He only learned less than 20% of his master's skills. After his master passed away, he became the "shaman" of Yaoguo. This time Yaoguo is in danger. It would have taken two more years to prepare. No matter the horses or weapons, they are not completely ready yet. Who would have thought that they would always be regarded as rats in the gutter and never look at them. How could the Yan Kingdom suddenly attack and hit the two most important military camps of Yao Kingdom in one fell swoop? After hastily accepting the challenge, Yaoguo was defeated in the first battle. For the honor of the Wolf God, Takuma took the order to come to Dayan, hoping to replicate his master's achievements back then, causing turmoil within the Dayan royal family and leaving Yaoguo breathing space. opportunity.

His master said that the second prince had a devil's seed planted in his heart, and he would be unable to control it if he gained supreme power. The second prince had witnessed the power of Xijue's witchcraft with his own eyes, so he must be extremely wary of Bixijue and not allow him to ascend the throne.

Takuma couldn't figure out who would eventually become the Emperor of Dayan, but he knew what he had to do, which was to let the person who was most suitable to be the Emperor of Dayan lose, and it would be best to let the youngest and most incompetent prince become the emperor.

Among the wolves, only the prime wolf can subdue all provocative wolves and gain supreme authority. It is impossible for a soft and fragile young wolf to suppress a pack of ambitious wolves. I heard that on New Year's Eve, the emperor announced that he would register the tenth prince in the name of the queen. According to Dayan's etiquette, he was the legitimate son, and it was said to be the most competitive status.

Takuma didn't believe that it was the whim of Emperor Dayan, it must have been intentional. The tenth prince is the heir that the emperor wants to cultivate? That won't work. As long as the prince is cultivated by Emperor Dayan, he will do his best to stop the other party.

And his best ally is the second prince. This chess piece, which was planted by the master more than 20 years ago, will play a perfect role in assisting him today. Let the second prince eliminate other suitable princes one by one, and finally make the second prince disqualified. How many qualified heirs will be left in the Great Yan royal family?

After sorting out his thoughts, Tuoma finally felt relieved, but the anxiety in his heart could not be eliminated. He stood in the yard and looked towards the direction of his homeland, with worry in his eyes. He knew that Yaoguo had lost another game a year ago, so he lost two games. He came to the capital of Great Yan with a mission, but he could not get news from his homeland in time. What is going on there now?

There is no war on the border for the time being. Marching in the deep winter, the windy and snowy weather, not to mention the poor vision, is a great loss for the soldiers. Ruihe plans to let the soldiers rest during this cold period, do a good job of exiling prisoners, replenish military resources, and manage the resettlement of disabled soldiers.

The development of the resettlement of disabled soldiers has brought him a lot of prestige in the army. He was a "kill first and report later" person. Work had already started here, and the memorial was still on the way. But he was not worried. He wrote the memorial very convincingly, and there were also parts praising the emperor. Judging from the psychological hints he had given to the emperor before, the emperor was very likely to agree. Even if he disagreed, it didn't matter. He could find another way to rehire the disabled soldiers. Except for not having military status, they would have all the benefits they deserved.

In the middle of the first month of the lunar calendar, he received intelligence from the third prince of Yaoguo.

This man was so capable that he took people to the top-secret iron ore area to steal weapons at night because of a personal grudge with his second brother, and also tried to frame his second brother, ignoring the plans of the two generations of Xijue. It can be seen that he is a typical representative of a simple mind and strong limbs. The difficulty of hypnotizing him and controlling him was almost equal to nothing. After the third prince, who was hinted, returned to the royal court, he really worked diligently for Ruihe. On the first night of the raid, General Yongding led his men to attack the safe route of the military horse ranch. One section was the intelligence contributed by the third prince.

This time, the third prince brought another piece of news to Ruihe.

"The witch of Yao country?" Ruihe was a little confused after reading the first sentence, and then he understood why the third prince told him about the witch. It turned out that the third prince overheard the conversation between his father, Dayasi, the leader of this generation of Xijue, the emperor of Yao country and his favorite eldest son, and accidentally learned about the past of the previous witch. Of course, he was discovered halfway through the eavesdropping, but he has always been simple-minded, and since he is his own son, Dayasi did not care much and allowed him to listen along.

After reading the content written at the end, Ruihe's pupils could not help but shrink.

It turned out that the previous witch had been to Yanjing City and served as a eunuch beside the original body's biological father, the former prince. For Yao country, the witch really paid too much, but fortunately he succeeded in the end and overthrew the only legitimate heir to the Great Yan royal family.

How did that person succeed? The leader of Xijue did not say clearly, only saying that it was a divinely gifted technique. The third prince wrote in the intelligence that the witch of Xijue was a person favored by the wolf god and had many wonderful spells.

Now Xijue has encountered a problem again, so the disciple of the previous witch, Wu Tuoma of this generation, has gone to Yanjing City.

After reading the intelligence quickly, Ruihe fell into deep thought. The third prince's intelligence was very brief, but Ruihe still extracted the key points. It was really shocking that the defeat of the former prince was actually due to the shadow of the great witch of Xijue. But a doubt that had troubled Ruihe before seemed to have been answered.

The situation of the prince at that time was far from the step of forcing the palace. He always felt that the former prince's forcing the palace was missing an important link, and it seemed that that link could be supplemented by this information.

What did the witch do when he came to the former prince?

Ruihe reasonably suspected that it was a method similar to hypnosis, just like what he had done these days.

Of course, this is just a guess. The most important thing now is the new Wu Tuoma. Has he arrived in Yanjing City? What will he do?

Combined with what the last witch did, Ruihe suspected that Tuoma was also aiming to disrupt the Great Yan royal family. But he was not too worried. If witchcraft was really that powerful, a witch could defeat thousands of horses and troops, and Xijue would not have been defeated by Great Yan once. More than 20 years ago, the witch's target was not the former crown prince, but the emperor.

For the sake of stability in the rear, Ruihe decided to pass this news back to the emperor and let the emperor worry about it. m.,Please remember:,.
