Qian Qiaogong looked at Chen Zhiyuan with a little surprise, "But we led our way south... just to join the new king? But if the new king does not value us, or sends us to fight against him... how can you and I feel?"

Chen Zhiyuan held his hands behind his back and faced the river, "If he doesn't attack, I won't take the initiative to tear him apart... But if he really leads his army to attack, there is nothing to say... Brother Qian, you and I have a life-long friendship. You should know my personality. I don't want to live under someone else's roof and live by others' alms!"

"Then...or we will station troops in Jiang'an and send a scout to the north... If he really comes to attack, we will cross the river. If he doesn't come to attack... maybe we can make it clear in person!"

Chen Zhiyuan frowned and said, "At this point, there is nothing to say in person... Brother Qian, if you keep breaking down, you will suffer the chaos!"

Qian Qiaogong thought about it and nodded, "Then... OK!"

The army crosses the river!

....

Wu Zheng stood at the bow of the boat with his hands behind his back, looking at the water with a scattered light.

Behind him were Xia Wanchun, Mao Xiang and others.

"Cungu, I haven't figured out one thing..."

"Prince, please speak."

"Why?" Wu Zheng was a little excited, "Why... did I do something wrong, or did I treat them unfairly?"

Xia Wanchun was very embarrassed, and he replied with difficulty: "It's not that the prince did something wrong... I'll give you an example, for example, the peaches and plums in the yard are ripe, so... they make people covetous!"

"No!" Wu Zheng shook his head, "Jiayue is not that kind of person. Mr. Ling Shi Wozi is not that kind of person... The eldest princess is not even more so!"

Seeing that Xia Wanchun couldn't answer, Ma Shiying stepped forward and replied: "Returning to the prince... is a belief."

"Faith?" Wu Zheng looked up at the sky, "What a belief... In this way, in their eyes, I am a country boy, and I don't have the chance to be that throne?"

Xia Wanchun hurriedly said, "No, no... the prince misunderstood. In fact... maybe it's because the prince... was born."

Wu Zheng turned his head and laughed: "It's interesting... What do you mean is that in the hearts of these great scholars and sages, heroes also discuss the source?"

"Uh..." Xia Wanchun fell silent.

Wu Zheng grinned, "So... they think I have less family background... No wonder, even if Mr. Qian knows that after I ascended the throne, he will betray me even if he is the father-in-law of the current dynasty!"

Xia Wanchun nodded and shook his head again, "Not all... Mr. Qian can marry his legitimate daughter to the prince, and then send the prince to the prince's command... I think, the original intention is not...!"

"I know!" Wu Zheng interrupted without hesitation, "I was just a thousand households at that time, and I was still a member of the family... Maybe they didn't expect that I would get to where I am today, or they didn't expect that it would be so fast... But I don't understand, were they taught by a master... why do they all think that they must be restored to the Zhu family?"

Xia Wanchun replied with difficulty, "...inheritance!"

"Inheritance." Wu Zheng repeated these two words, his face became strange, "That Cungu was once a disciple of Mr. Wozi... Do you think so too?"

Xia Wanchun's face changed and he knelt down on one knee and said, "I have no intention... I think differently from my husband. I believe that only when the country is rich and the people are strong is the only choice to truly revive China and revitalize our clan... The prince is right. The world is the world of the Han people, not the world of one family and one family... Mr. and they... are stubborn!"

"Cungu said it well. If they could turn this corner, there would be no today's chaos... Recovering the Beidu Zhixi has not resolved this bad thing!" Wu Zheng's tone became stiff, "Since they insist on being an obstacle to my path, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!"

These words changed Xia Wanchun's face, but he resisted the advice.

Wu Zheng noticed it and asked, "Does Cungu not bear it or do you want it?"

Xia Wanchun was forced by Wu Zheng, took a deep breath and bowed: "As long as the prince gives the order, Wanchun will not obey... But what Wanchun wants to say is... the situation has turned into this, and in fact... there are also something wrong with the prince!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Mao Xiang said anxiously: "Duke of Wei is careful of his words!"

Xia Wanchun looked at Wu Zheng, "The prince once said that if something cannot be done, don't promise... don't give people hope that cannot be realized... But the prince has always placed his position vacant, which gives people irresistible desire... I know that the prince has planned it for a long time, but... Isn't it something that the prince has expected long ago?"

“Bold!”

"absurd!"

"rude!"

Mao Xiang and others shouted loudly.

Wu Zheng raised his hand and stopped everyone's scolding, but instead smiled, "Cungu's criticism makes some sense... Yes, I don't hide it. I did have the strategy of putting the throne high and willing to take the bait... But have you ever thought that I have never incited anyone to tempt anyone to fight for that position, right... Since I am a disobedient, there is no need to have so many excuses... For example, if someone has a wealth in his family and a thief is stealing and being captured, you can't blame the owner for putting gold and silver at home, which will attract the thief's covetousness?"

Xia Wanchun said sadly: "This is...human nature!"

"Hey...!" Wu Zheng sighed, "Yes... When everything comes to the end, it will be relied on the word "humanity"... But have you ever thought that these people do not represent the world?"

Wu Zheng suddenly turned around and stared at Xia Wanchun's face, "Since you are still willing to follow me... This shows that the hearts of the world are not all for them... For example, you, like the most soldiers of the Northern Expedition Army... They just think they can represent the world... In my opinion, they are wrong!"

"I know that Cungu doesn't want to see this civil war in which compatriots are fratricidal... I don't want to!" Wu Zheng turned to Ma Shiying, "Old Ma, go, pass me on the orders of orphans, turn the bow of the ship... Let's go to Yingtian Mansion!"

These words shocked everyone.

Xia Wanchun said anxiously: "Your Majesty must not... We only have more than a thousand people at the moment... Then why not leave Longwan... If the prince insists on going to Yingtian Prefecture, please go to Chuzhou first, wait for me to summon Jianyang Guard, or wait for the first army to be transferred to help... It's not too late to go again!"

Mao Xiang and others also advised each other, but Wu Zheng shook his head, "When Gu started, he was really confused... But now, Gu calmed down... Just imagine, if Gu just went to Chuzhou like this, then Shen Zhiyuan, Qian Qiaogong's troops, Liao Zhongping's troops, and Li Guoguangxinwei will inevitably meet with the imperial guards and left camp... What will happen next?"

Wu Zheng glanced at everyone, "A civil war for the world will immediately break out... Gu Know Cungu, you can't bear it. No matter who loses or who wins in this civil war, countless innocent soldiers will die... To be honest, Gu can't bear it!"
