Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1263 Leaving One Person Behind
Yuwen Ye just looked up at her, and Shang Ruyi immediately understood.

He didn't say much, just silently put the jade token into his sleeve, then pointed to the servant behind him and said, "Go find some good golden wound medicine and give it to him."

Shang Ruyi said: "Okay."

So she turned around and went to the warehouse with Tushe'er to find the best medicine and gave it to the servant. The servant took it and left quickly.

When Shang Ruyi returned to the meeting hall, it seemed that a heated debate had just taken place and the atmosphere was still a little tense.

Yuwen Ye's expression had returned to calm.

However, his gaze became a little colder.

Shang Ruyi walked over silently and sat beside him, then looked at him with a questioning look. Yuwen Ye said calmly: "The Crown Prince and the King of Qi are going to attack me on the way."

"..."

Shang Ruyi's brows furrowed.

Really, not surprising at all.

Shen Tutai couldn't wait to sneer and said, "Just in time!"

Coming from a military background, he was naturally used to solving everything with force. In fact, the current situation had reached the point where it could only be solved with force.

So Shang Ruyi asked, "What are your plans?"

Hearing her say this, Shen Tutai's eyes widened instead: "Princess, what's the 'plan' for this? They are already about to attack His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, shouldn't we fight back?"

Shang Ruyi glanced at him without comment, but continued to look at Yuwen Ye.

Sure enough, Yuwen Ye said after a moment of silence: "We must counterattack, but the target of the counterattack must be clear."

Shen Tutai was stunned: "What?"

What else is there to say? Since it was the Crown Prince and the King of Qi who wanted to harm him, then the target of the counterattack would of course be -

Just as he was thinking about it, Yuwen Ye looked up at him.

It was already getting late at this time. Because the meeting hall was too large and deep, the lighting was not very good. In addition, there was no light on. Yu Wenye, who was sitting in the deepest part, had almost half of his body submerged in the darkness, but his eyes were as bright as lights.

Shentu Tai's heart skipped a beat, and everyone else also read something in that cold gaze.

Yuwen Ye said calmly: "If my targets are always the Crown Prince and the King of Qi... then even if I win against them, I will only be a traitor in my father's eyes afterwards."

When everyone heard this, they immediately understood.

Shang Ruyi sat beside him, and although he just looked at him quietly, his eyes were full of smiles and appreciation.

Yuwen Ye is Yuwen Ye. He is always sober and calm. No matter what happens, no matter how difficult the situation is, no matter how angry he is, he is always steadfast and knows that his goal is to seize the power from the emperor. The power is only in the hands of the emperor, not in the hands of the crown prince and the king of Qi.

Therefore, his target of counterattack should be——

Realizing this, Shentu Tai hesitated for a moment, and then his fierce tiger eyes flashed with excitement, almost red light, staring at Yuwen Ye closely: "Then when do we start?"

He already knew who their target would be.

But Yuwen Ye waved his hand again: "You can't just do it directly."

Shentu Tai showed a disappointed look again and asked puzzledly: "Why?"

Since the target is not the Crown Prince and the King of Qi, but the one who truly holds the imperial power, what they want to do is what he just shouted, "rebellion", so why can't they just do it? In this world, how can there be a rebellion without taking action directly?
This time, it was Shang Ruyi who spoke up. She said softly, "If you take action directly, how will His Royal Highness the King of Qin face his subjects in the future?"

As I said, Yuwen Ye did not want to leave a bad reputation in history books for generations to come.

Hearing this, Shentu Tai frowned and said impatiently: "We are going back to the same path again!"

When the Emperor threatened the King of Qin to give up Shangdang and Puban by killing Xiao Yuansui, the Queen of Qin said that both the previous dynasty and the current dynasty ruled the world with filial piety and could not leave room for criticism, so they were not allowed to rebel directly. Now they are stuck at this point. At this time, Shen Wuzheng, who had been silent all the time, said, "But this time, it is the Crown Prince and the King of Qi who are going to take action first."

Shentu Tai turned and looked at him.

Shen Wuzheng said: "They want to frame His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin for rebellion in order to 'quell the rebellion' and eliminate dissidents. Why don't His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin take advantage of their trick?"

"..."

"After all, there must be 'traitors' in this rebellion."

"..."

"It all depends on who is left standing. The one who falls is the traitor."

Shentu Tai understood it all at once.

Yuwen Ye's eyes flickered violently a few times in the increasingly dark shadows, and he said in a deep voice: "Fuming's words make sense."

Everyone around him also understood his plan. After discussing it in a low voice, they all thought that this plan was feasible, so they nodded and said to Yuwen Ye: "That's it!"

"Your Highness, do it!"

"We all obey your Highness' orders!"

"Success or failure depends on this!"

But at this moment, Shen Wuzheng frowned again and said hesitantly: "But there is a problem with this plan."

Everyone immediately turned to look at him, and Yuwen Ye also asked: "What's the problem?"

Shen Wuzheng said: "If you want to turn the tables, then His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin must follow their apparent plan and lead the people of the Prince of Qin's Palace to leave Chang'an in ten days, and then come back to kill them after they take action."

Yuwen Ye said: "This is natural."

Shen Wuzheng said: "But if that happens, during that period of time, Chang'an City will be completely out of our control."

"..."

"But, to accomplish this great task, Chang'an City cannot be out of our control."

Shi Yutao on the other side didn't understand: "We are just leaving Chang'an City temporarily, and we can fight back when the time comes. What is there to worry about even if Chang'an is out of control for a while?"

Shen Wuzheng frowned and said in a deep voice: "No, not even for a moment."

"..."

"Because I always feel that there seems to be a blank in this strategy."

Yuwen Ye looked at him: "What do you mean--"

Shen Wuzheng said: "During the time we were away from Chang'an, the Crown Prince and the King of Qi stayed in Chang'an. There are many things they can do."

"...!"

Yuwen Ye took a deep breath and suddenly understood something.

He frowned, thought for a while and then said, "But my father has asked everyone in the Prince of Qin's Palace to leave Chang'an with me in ten days. The order has been issued. If I dare to disobey the order, he will not let me go so easily. If something unexpected happens again, our strategy of taking advantage of the situation will be affected."

Pei Xingyuan asked: "Then, let's leave one person behind?"

Shan Tong'er pouted and said, "Who should stay? If Your Majesty does not allow even His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin to stay, then no matter who of us stays, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor."

Just then, a calm voice said, "I'll stay."

There will be more later
