Chapter 2397 Threats from other princes

Hou Yi regarded Zhao Lun as a minister. Although Zhao Lun had not yet ascended the throne, he already regarded Zhao Lun as the emperor.

Zhao Lun was very satisfied with Hou Yi's title. He then asked, "What's possible?"

"Perhaps, Guan Shangshu received the news that your majesty escaped from his house arrest, and he went to the scene to deal with the matter!" Hou Yi said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lun thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "It's really possible."

Zhao Lun was not released by Guan Zhuo, but was rescued by Hou Yi. If Guan Zhuo didn't know about Zhao Lun's escape, forget it. If he knew about it, he would definitely deal with it. After all, he was the one who captured him. , it is impossible for him not to care about this matter. Now that the people are gone, it is very possible for him to go to the scene and take a look.

"If that's the case, then it's normal that he's not in the house." Hou Yi said, "Your Majesty, you can have someone go and have a look. Maybe, it won't be certain that he comes back."

Zhao Lun nodded, and then he sent someone to Guan Zhuo's house again.

"Your Majesty, we still have two things to deal with." Hou Yi continued.

"What two things?"

"The first thing to do is to attack Li Yang in the neighboring city to the south." Hou Yi said: "When Li Yang left, he took most of the troops in the imperial capital with him, and the Imperial Forest Army remained neutral. As a result, the imperial capital's There are not many troops that can fight. If Li Yang is unwilling to respect you as emperor and rebels, it will be difficult for the existing troops in the imperial capital to stop his attack."

Zhao Lun frowned when he heard this.

It was not that they had never thought about this matter before, but at that time, they had a relatively optimistic view on the matter. Although Li Yang took away 100,000 people from the imperial capital, the most effective army in the imperial capital was the Imperial Forest Army. As long as they subdue the Royal Forest Army, then even if Li Yang wants to attack the imperial capital, they will have enough strength to fight against him. As long as time is delayed, Li Yang will naturally be defeated due to lack of food and clothing.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes. They expected to be able to conquer the Imperial Forest Army, but they failed. Commander Hao simply refused to accept his solicitation.

Of course Zhao Lun could kill Commander Hao, but that would not help the matter and would even make the matter worse.

Commander Hao has been the commander of the Imperial Guard Army for many years and has a high prestige within the Imperial Guard Army. If Zhao Lun kills Commander Hao, it is likely to attract revenge from the Imperial Guard Army. If that happens, he will not be able to remain emperor for long.

Secondly, the Royal Forest Army only respects the emperor's orders. Even if they kill Commander Hao, they cannot change this rule. Zhao Lun still cannot control them.

"This matter is a bit troublesome." Zhao Lun said: "However, as long as I successfully ascend the throne tomorrow, the Royal Forest Army will naturally submit to me. At that time, I will not be afraid even if Li Yang has the intention to rebel. What's more, he Not all of his 100,000 troops would be willing to join him in rebellion."

Hou Yi thought for a while and said, "Although I say that, I am afraid that Commander Hao has other ideas in his mind."

"Humph, he dares!" Zhao Lun sneered and said, "I'm not going to kill him, it's not that I don't dare to kill him. If he really disobeys me, I don't mind changing the commander of the Imperial Forest Army."

Zhao Lun is not qualified to change the commander of the Royal Forest Army now, but as long as he successfully ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, he will also have this qualification. At that time, he will not be afraid that Commander Hao will not listen to his orders.

"Your Majesty, there is a second thing."

"explain."

"Other princes!" Hou Yi said in a deep voice: "I can see that some of the ministers just now may not be convinced by His Majesty. They are just forced to accept this matter under pressure, but they may already have it in their hearts. Other plans, such as supporting other princes to overthrow your Majesty's rule."

When Zhao Lun heard this, the cold air burst out from his body.

Hou Yi's words are not alarmist. Zhao Lun himself also knows that he is not popular on weekdays. This time he ascended to the throne and relied on force, not the imperial edict, nor the support of the ministers. Therefore, the ministers had other concerns in their minds. The idea is also entirely possible.

Perhaps, in the minds of many ministers, their throne came from a wrong path, and as long as they have the opportunity, they will set things right.

"What you said makes sense." Zhao Lun said: "The eldest prince is indeed a threat, but he is missing now, and I don't know where he is."

"Your Majesty, I am not talking about one eldest prince, but all the princes!" Hou Yi said: "The eldest prince is indeed one of the most qualified to inherit the throne, but your majesty, don't forget that the late emperor had more than one son. Although they are not popular candidates for the throne due to various reasons, this does not mean that they are not qualified to inherit the throne. In a sense, any one of them is qualified to inherit the throne. "

When Zhao Lun heard this, his brows jumped.

Hou Yi's words make sense. Indeed, in addition to the eldest prince, the other princes are also qualified to inherit the throne. No one thought of them before, just because they have no chance of becoming the new emperor compared to the other three princes. .

But now that the second prince is dead, the eldest prince is missing, and some ministers are opposed to himself as the third prince, then it is very likely that they will turn their attention to other princes and work together to support other princes to ascend the throne. It is not impossible.

"What you said makes sense, we must guard against this!"

Zhao Lun knew very well that his throne was not legitimate, so he felt guilty. He did not want anything that could threaten his throne, even if it was his brothers!

"Your Majesty, you should take good care of those princes." Hou Yi suggested: "It is best not to give other ministers the opportunity to see those princes, so that naturally no one will support those princes."

"I have a very good way to completely prevent this dangerous thing from happening." Zhao Lun sneered.

Looking at Zhao Lun's expression, Hou Yi suddenly felt cold in his heart. He thought of a possibility and said nervously: "Your Majesty, you are going to..."

"Only dead people can't be emperors!" Zhao Lun said: "Only dead people will not threaten my throne!"

Sure enough!

Hearing Zhao Lun's words, Hou Yi was shocked. His guess turned out to be true. Zhao Lun really wanted to kill those princes.

Hou Yi just reminded Zhao Lun that he didn't want Zhao Lun to kill the other princes, but just wanted Zhao Lun to put those princes under house arrest for a period of time. When Zhao Lun sat firmly on the throne, those princes would be free again and would not pose a threat to Zhao Lun.

But now it seems that Zhao Lun is much more cruel than he thought.
