Chapter 709 Prince

At night.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

Candlelight lit in the room, and the color was dim.

One person was lying on the bed, the other person was sitting beside the bed, whispering something.

The man lying on the bed was middle-aged and pale, but he could vaguely see a bit of elegant demeanor. He was not someone else, but Mr. Wen from Liang State.

The man by the bed seemed to be about thirty years old, like a young man, but upon closer inspection, his temples were gray and his eyebrows and eyes were slightly wrinkled. He was already an older person, but he was well maintained and still looked young.

This man has handsome facial features and a bit middle-aged demeanor, and looks extremely mature and steady. In his eyebrows, he also has a look of being arrogant without anger.

This person is not someone else, but the crown prince of the current dynasty.

During the years when the old emperor was bedridden, the prince was in charge of the government.

A few years ago, the Southern Liang Dynasty broke the peace for many years, rekindled the war, and attacked fiercely, causing the Shu Kingdom to retreat step by step. It was the ambition of the Liang Dynasty prince.

In the eyes of many people, the prince's skills are even more powerful than when the emperor was young.

"During these years, Chen Zhiyun has relied on his talent in training and his outstanding military achievements in the past and is quite proud of his contributions... I have won him over for many years, but he will never be close to me."

Prince Liang breathed lightly, and the candlelight shone on his face, showing a dim color.

His originally fair face made him look much younger, but now he looks a little older under the dim candlelight.

He heard that he claimed to himself, but he did not take up the airs of the prince of the dynasty, and he seemed very approachable.

But Mr. Wen has become accustomed to this.

This prince is truly a respectful and respectful person. He often takes the initiative to get close to others in private occasions... In fact, this was also what Mr. Wen taught him in his early years. Over the years, with such a respectful and respectful attitude, the prince of the current dynasty has attracted a group of arrogant strategists.

"Chen Zhiyun..."

Mr. Wen was silent for a moment and said, "He has always respected the prince very much, and has thoughtful etiquette and no disgust. However, he cannot get close to him. It is really a difficult thing."

Hearing this, Prince Liang snorted and said, "Although the etiquette has been here and I have not detested me, my enlistment of him has been so obvious in recent years. How could he not see a smart person like him? He rejected me in disguise..."

"I even secretly revealed that as long as he is willing to use it for me, he must be the number one general under my command. Even Deng Yin will give in to him."

"But he still pretends not to know."

"I have deliberately suppressed him for a while over the years, making him difficult, and he still has no actions or even words."

Prince Liang gritted his teeth and said, "I told him that he could train thousands of elite soldiers. In certain specific situations, he was like a sharp blade, invincible, and even better than a hundred thousand troops. If I handed over the power of 100,000 soldiers to him, wouldn't it be invincible in the world?"

"I know he is incompatible with Deng Yin. Even a few years ago, I hinted him that if he truly belongs to me, I will do whatever he wants to get rid of Deng Yin for him, but he is still the same."

Bang!

Prince Liang hammered it hard on the edge of the bed. With his always unsightly expression of joy and anger, he still seemed so angry, which shows that he had indeed accumulated anger for a long time.

Mr. Wen shook his head slightly and said, "Training troops is not so simple, there are many changes inside. However, if he can really use it for His Highness, then it would be much better to use Deng Yin today... In fact, Deng Yin is also a talented general, and he has a few people among the famous generals in modern times, but Chen Zhiyun is not limited to the present. From ancient times to the present, there are actually few people like him."

As he said that, Mr. Wen stopped for a while and made a brief statement.

Seeing this, the prince took a cup of tea from the side and fed him a sip.

Mr. Wen has long been used to it, and is not as flattered as other ministers, but he cannot be completely unspeakable. After all, the superiority and inferiority of the superiors and inferiors have been extremely important throughout the ages.

There are so many past lessons in history that some ministers are too close to the emperor, and sometimes they are disorderly and forget their identities, which inevitably leads to disasters.

Mr. Wen knew this truth well, and his eyes suddenly felt grateful and kind.

After drinking a cup of tea, Mr. Wen took a moment before saying, "Although Deng Yin was extremely afraid of him, Chen Zhiyun actually did not have much resentment... The reason why he was unwilling to follow the prince was ultimately for the emperor."

Prince Liang said in a deep voice: "The gentleman has told me about this, but I never thought that he would be so stubborn for that old guy."

Mr. Wen seemed to remember something and frowned and said, "I heard that some time ago, Chen Zhiyun killed Concubine Yue in the name of eliminating evil spirits?"

"Well, this incident caught me off guard." The prince smiled bitterly and said, "At that time, the gentleman was not here, everything had to pass through my hands. I was very tired at that time and really ignored many things."

"No wonder your highness, but Chen Zhiyun's argument... is not to mention the evil spirit, but Yue Fei is indeed a beauty. The reason why the emperor was ill for many years was that he was so indulged in love with him."

Mr. Wen thought for a moment, stroked the throat, coughed a few times, and then said, "I heard that after Concubine Yue died, the emperor has recovered a lot?"

"When the old guy recovered, he would have to have sex with Concubine Yue. Now he has lost Concubine Yue, and he really has some energy." The prince gritted his teeth and said, "This Chen Zhiyun was just a weak scholar back then. He played a few games with the old guy. Before he rushed to the battlefield, he was appreciated by the old guy, so he remembered these kindnesses and was loyal to this old guy and never approached me... This time he killed Concubine Yue, and wanted to make the old guy recover again, as if he had broken up with me."

Mr. Wen thought for a moment and said, "So, what is the prince's intention?"

"The father is old."

Prince Liang said in a deep voice: "He no longer had the pride and ambition he was when he was young, nor did he have the enthusiasm he was when he was young. In many things, he was already slow and old, and no longer had the shrewdness he was back then. In his hands, Liang State will only keep steady, even decay, and will never grow stronger."

Mr. Wen nodded slightly and pondered without saying a word.

He also knew that this was just one of the reasons.

The bigger reason is that... After taking over the greatest authority of Liang State, the prince in front of him would never be willing to return the power in his hands again, even if it was his father, that was the real emperor of Liang State now.

"The emperor is indeed old, so there is no need to worry."

Mr. Wen's eyes were slightly conspicuous and he said, "The real obstacle is Chen Zhiyun."

Prince Liang frowned and said, "What do you mean by sir?"

Mr. Wen's eyes were cold and said, "Since Chen Zhiyun has done this, it has become the biggest obstacle for His Highness. His Highness cannot be lenient."

Prince Liang was slightly shocked and whispered: "But Chen Zhiyun is indeed unparalleled in talent and training skills, and it is hard to compare in the world."

Mr. Wen shook his head slightly and said, "There are countless talented people in the world, but they are not in their position, so it is difficult to show their strengths... I think Chen Zhiyun was just a scholar who knew how to play chess. If it weren't for the sudden change at that time, he wouldn't be able to show his style on the battlefield. I think the population and figures of Liang State, can't I compare to Chen Zhiyun?"

"That's right...but how many people in the world are so talented that they are comparable to Chen Zhiyun?" Prince Liang shook his head slightly and whispered: "Even if there is, who can find one?"

As he said that, he smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe there are often horses with thousands of miles, but there are not many horses with great horses."

After pausing, he heard the prince of the Liang Dynasty sigh and said, "Forget it, let me think about it."

As he said that, he glanced at Mr. Wen deeply and withdrew his gaze.

Over the years, Mr. Wen has been asking him to win over Chen Zhiyun, but this is the first time he spoke, which gives him the idea of ​​getting rid of Chen Zhiyun.

"Now that Shu Kingdom has not been destroyed, and Yuan Meng is becoming stronger and stronger, Chen Zhiyun is like a sharp blade... It is like breaking him with one arm."

Prince Liang took a deep breath and said, "Sir, I'll take a rest. I'll go back and think about it."

Mr. Wen closed his eyes slightly and said, "It's so good."

Prince Liang stood up and said, "Then I will go back to my house first."

Mr. Wen nodded and said, "Your Highness will come back first, but I am fine and I will not be able to salute you."

Prince Liang didn't care and gave a little tribute before leaving in a hurry.

Mr. Wen watched him leave quietly.

When the prince left, the maid outside wanted to come in and serve, but he was sent out.

He remained silent. After a long time, he closed his eyes and breathed out.

"It finally came to this point."

Mr. Wen felt emotion.

"You have saved up for many years when you have reached the point of killing Chen Zhiyun?"

At this moment, a sound came into my ears.

Mr. Wen's expression changed slightly and he shouted, "Who?"
