The secret letter sent by Mr. Wang passed through the hands of several people and went through multiple layers of measures. After confirming that it was not targeted and could not be traced, it was finally sent to a deep house near the palace.
At this time, the lights were on, but the inside of the mansion seemed extremely dark, with dim candlelight like sparse stars.
There were obviously many people walking around, but they were all silent, as if they were drifting.
If an outsider could step into this place, they would probably think that they had entered a ghost house.
Residences that are close to the royal palace are naturally extraordinary. They are either high-profile dignitaries or relatives of the royal family. They are usually high-profile and attract much attention.
However, this high-walled mansion has little sense of existence, and it is easily overlooked, and the owner of the mansion is also ignored.
In fact, this owner is one of Surya's brothers, the youngest of the three legitimate sons of King Jaya, and the third prince Simba.
It is said that Simba was frail and sickly since he was a child and rarely appeared in front of others. As an adult, he stayed behind closed doors to recuperate from illness and never had contact with the outside world.
Many times, the officials and people of Champa forgot that there was such a third prince.
At this moment, the so-called sick Simba is sitting in a secret room, with the superstitious letter on the big case in front of him.
Under the light of the lamp, Simba's thin cheeks were strangely pale, but they did not look sickly, and there was clearly a bit of shrewdness and capability in his eyes.
"Mr. Bi, what is the important matter in this letter?"
In addition to Simba, there are seven or eight people sitting around the table in the secret room. The man named Mr. Bi is sitting on Simba's right side.
It's not that Simba is illiterate, it's just that the secret letter uses encryption methods and is designed by Mr. Bi.
Mr. Bi's name is Bi Wen. Judging from his appearance, he is a pure Han Chinese. He is about 20 years old, handsome and elegant, exuding a wise and knowledgeable temperament.
Just sitting there, he has a demeanor of strategizing and winning thousands of miles, which makes people feel admired and convinced.
With everyone's attention focused on him, Bi Wen remained calm and composed, "So that everyone will know that Wang Ge, the most important counselor around Baotou Tuhua, has long been instigated by me as an internal agent. This secret letter was sent out by Wang Ge who risked his life." Yes, he said that Baotou Tuhua could no longer sit still, he had reached a tacit agreement with the Song Dynasty envoy, and he was determined to seize the throne with his troops and compete with Shili Hari!"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the secret room suddenly became solemn.
"Uh! This uncle of mine has always wanted to eat but was afraid of burning his hands. Why did he suddenly change his gender? It's just that he doesn't know how much he weighs, and he still thinks he can compete with Shili Hari with his little strength. What do you think? Are they all a little bit irritating? And they don’t take their father very seriously. If they really think that they can do whatever they want without his father!? I say, we should make a decisive decision and kill his wolfish ambitions first, so as to let Shi Shi Lihori doesn’t dare to act rashly!”
It was not Simba who spoke, but the second prince Gabonshe on his left.
Jaya left Buddha Oath City and went to Meishan, naturally with a purpose and a plan, and secretly handed over the remaining forces in the capital to his third son, who no one paid attention to, to take charge of it on his behalf.
He was also worried that the third son would dominate the world and take advantage of the opportunity to become powerful, and would be out of his control and pose a threat. Therefore, the second son was introduced as a check and balance, which was a common emperor's tactic.
Jay believed that his sons were all coveting the throne, and they must be fighting overtly and secretly with each other, so there was no need to worry that they would be in cahoots with each other.
Gabonshe believed that his father's decision to let Simba take charge of the overall situation meant that he valued and favored his third brother more, so he was dissatisfied and wanted to express himself even more. He always competed for the first place and often rushed to speak.
Simba's illness is only half true and half pretending, and he has been hiding it. This shows how deep his mind is, how could he not know Gabonshe's little plan.
But he saw through the situation without speaking out, letting Gapenshe perform, and only expressed his views and demonstrated his abilities at critical moments.
"Second brother, there is no need to be angry. Aren't we waiting for the day when Baotou Tuhua shows his fox tail? My father has been prepared for it, and Mr. Bi has a clever plan and a comprehensive strategy. Baotou Tuhua is nothing more than a fish in the net and cannot afford to overturn it. What kind of storm?"
Simba's demeanor of neither arrogance nor impatience is quite regal. Compared with Gabonshe's frivolity and impatience, Simba is a judge of his own.
Gabonshe's face tightened, realizing that he had been stepped on secretly by his younger brother again, and he hurriedly made amends, showing a free and easy look, confident of victory.
"I am concerned about chaos, and I am a little impatient. In fact, I also understand that even if Baotou Tuhua is determined to cause chaos, he will not be able to launch it in a short while. Most of the troops he controls are still at the docks and at sea, and there are only a few in the city. We have 16,000 of the seven or eight thousand troops, so it will be easy to deal with him, not to mention that with Mr. Bi here, everything is under control, so there is nothing to worry about."
Then Simba said cautiously, "It's not that you don't have to worry at all. After all, there will be monsters when things go wrong. Bao Tuo Tuhua changed from his usual indecision, so he must have sufficient confidence and absolute certainty. Could it be that he is from Song Dynasty? Can it provide huge substantial support? Or does he have some hidden strength that we don’t know about? What does Mr. Bi think of this?"
Insidious bitch, you are the one who talks about people and lies. You just want to make me look worthless in front of others, so as to set off your intelligence! ?
Gabonshe couldn't help but become a little angry and yelled, "Where are there so many demons? There are only more than a hundred people in the Song Dynasty, and they are not heavenly soldiers and generals. What kind of real support can they give!? Also, Baotou Tuhua's chief adviser Wang Gedu was instigated by Mr. Bi to rebel, what kind of bullshit strength can he hide from us!? Are you questioning Mr. Bi's ability by saying this!?"
Simba smiled gently, "Why would my second brother think so? I just believe that Mr. Bi has a perfect plan, so I sincerely ask for advice."
The two brothers competed with each other, but they both supported Bi Wen secretly, not only because Jaya trusted Bi Wen, obeyed him, and made him responsible for the overall plan, but also because Bi Wen did have real ability and great wisdom, and could always win. Come up with incredible strategies.
Both brothers wanted to use it for their own purposes to help themselves achieve great success early, so naturally they wanted to please him in every possible way.
Bi Wen seems to have no intention of getting involved in the brotherly dispute at the moment. He maintains an impartial attitude towards the two of them and only talks about the matter.
"There is a reason why Baotou Tuhua became decisive. The second prince is right. The Song envoy can only provide invisible support at most and cannot change the strength in Baotou Tuhua's hands. But the third prince is also right. He is indeed still He has hidden strength, that is, our general Pan Sha has secretly defected to him, and he is still confident of subduing another general Yi Laicha."
"What!?" Simba exclaimed.
Gabonshe was stunned for a moment and then turned pale with fright. He jumped up to avoid the big case and rushed towards the person sitting next to Biwen, "Well, you Panza, it is in vain that my father regarded you as a trusted general and let you take charge. Army, how dare you eat us inside and outside!"
Pansha was of dual Cham and Han descent, and was taller and majestic than most Chams. Not to mention that he was wearing armor, so it was easy to deal with the second prince.
But at this moment, he was sitting in a chair. He had no intention of resisting the second prince, nor did he have any intention of jumping over the wall and grabbing Bi Wen next to him as a bargaining chip.
On the contrary, Yi Laicha, who might have rebelled, had a panicked look on his face, and his eyes flickered as if he was eager to defend himself. ..
Everyone else in the room also stood up in horror, preparing to subdue the two rebel generals.
These two generals together control nearly 10,000 elite troops, which is enough to destroy Jaye's remaining forces in the city!
