Chapter 325 Seeing that after Shao Fang sat down, there was just a small talk without a word, without any point, Dong Sheng cut to the chase first, and asked with a smile: "Your Highness suddenly came to visit, there must be something."
"Hehe" Shao Fang was waiting for Dong Sheng to take the initiative to ask.
He smiled leisurely and asked, "Dong Xiang, my father is very old, but he has not established a prince for a long time, what do you mean by this?"
Dong Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then immediately arched his hand and said: "As a courtier, it is inconvenient for me to express my position on the matter of establishing a prince in the royal family. ” "Hey" Shao Fang waved his hand and said, "We're just talking in private, it's harmless." ” Dong Sheng looked at Shao Fang, who was pretending to be casual, and secretly laughed in his heart.
As the right minister of Mo Guo, he has an empty hair when he plucks out a strand of hair, and his shrewdness is far more comparable.
Shao Fang, who was indifferent to him, suddenly came to visit in person, definitely for the sake of establishing a prince.
He pondered for a moment, waved his hand to the left and right, and sent out the servants and entourage in the hall, and then Fang said softly: "Maybe, the king still has doubts in his heart."
Shao Fang pursed his lips and asked bluntly: "Then according to Dong Xiang's opinion, who will my father eventually appoint as the crown prince" As he spoke, he leaned forward and looked at Dong Sheng without blinking.
Dong Sheng didn't think much about it, and said: "His Royal Highness Shao Bo, the third prince, is kind-hearted and appreciated by the Ning royal court, I think that His Royal Highness Shao Bo may be appointed as the crown prince in the future." ” Hearing this, Shao Fang's face changed suddenly, but he quickly returned to normal, he forced a smile, just let out a soft sigh, and did not answer again. is as smart as Dong Sheng, how can he not see Shao Fang's sense of loss.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he tried to speak, but finally swallowed it back.
The old man frowned, picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, and praised: "This tea is bitter first and then fragrant, it is really the best quality" Shao Fang was not in the mood to discuss the tea ceremony with Dong Sheng at this time.
Dong Sheng is the minister that his father relies on the most, and he also understands his father's mind best, even he thinks that his father will make Shao Bo the crown prince, and he basically has no hope.
He couldn't help but sigh, stood up, nodded at Dong Sheng, and said, "It's really presumptuous to come to visit, I'll just" He made a gesture to leave, but before he finished his farewell, at this moment, Zong Yuan, who was standing behind him, hurriedly stretched out his hand and quietly grabbed the hem of his back coat.
Shao Fang was stunned for a moment, and looked back at Zong Yuan in confusion, who met his gaze, shook his head slightly, and motioned to Shao Fang to sit down first and not leave in a hurry.
Dong Sheng was talking about tea just now, but to Zong Yuan's ears, he was more like talking about Shao Fang.
Isn't Shao Fang's current situation very miserable, and he left hastily before he completely figured out Dong Sheng's intentions, for fear that he would miss the opportunity.
Receiving Zong Yuan's hint, Shao Fang's eyes rolled, pondered for a moment, and then sat back on the collapse.
At this time, Dong Sheng asked strangely, "Is Your Highness leaving?"
"No, I just get up and move my muscles," Shao Fang said with a smile.
"Oh" Dong Sheng responded, raised his gaze, and looked at Zong Yuan behind Shao Fang, this person is not simple, how come he has never seen this person Thinking about it, he asked with a smile: "Your Highness, I don't know who this gentleman is" Without waiting for Shao Fang to answer, Zong Yuan preemptively bowed his hand and said, "In Xia Zongyi, I have seen Dong Xiang."
Zongyi Dong Sheng shook his head secretly, he had never heard of this name.
Zong Yuan asked with a smile: "There is something unknown below, but I am afraid that Dong Xiang will blame him when I ask it, and I don't know Dong Xiang."
Dong Sheng smiled, waved his hand and said, "Mr.
Zongyi, please have something to say."
Zong Yuan restrained his smile and said, "I don't know, what does Dong think about the fact that His Royal Highness Shao Bo will be the crown prince?"
Oh Dong Sheng took a breath, he didn't expect Zong Yuan to ask about this.
His gaze stayed on Zong Yuan's face for a long time, and then slowly fell to the table in front of him, speechless for a long time.
Shao Fang is also a smart person, and when he saw this, his heart suddenly moved.
If Dong Sheng supported Shao Bo as the crown prince, he would definitely not want to express his position after listening to Zong Yuan's questioning, but at this time he was so hesitant, could it be that he was against Shao Bo as the crown prince Thinking of this, Shao Fang's eyes lit up, and he glanced back at Zong Yuan gratefully, but fortunately, Zong Yuan pulled himself in time.
He silently stared at Dong Sheng, waiting for him to answer.
After a long while, Dong Sheng raised his head, did not answer Zong Yuan's question, and asked Shao Fangdao: "Your Highness, what do you think of the current Peng Kingdom?"
"Pengguo" Shao looked dazed, and didn't react for a while.
"It's the former Wind Country."
Dong Sheng added.
"Oh" Shao Fang shook his head and said: "Zhong Tian killed the king, set himself up as the king, all relied on the support of Ning Guo, said to be the king, but in fact he was Ning Chen, the king is not the king, the country is not the country, this is the shame of the wind people." ” When Dong Sheng heard this, he was very moved, he couldn't help but praise secretly in his heart, and sighed faintly: "Just now, Mr.
Zongyi asked me what I think about the establishment of His Royal Highness Shao Bo as the crown prince.
Shao Fang was originally holding a teacup, pretending to drink tea, but after listening to Dong Sheng's words, his body was shocked, the teacup in his hand was not grasped steadily, and it fell directly on the table, and the tea spilled all over him.
Seeing this, the guards on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to help him wipe it, Shao Fang waved his arm and pushed all the guards who came forward away, then looked at Dong Sheng, stood up silently, walked up to him, straightened his clothes, arched his hands, gave a deep salute, and said in a trembling tone: "Dong Xiang's words, insightful, really the pillars of the royal court, my pillars of Da Mo" Regardless of whether Shao Fang is acting out of sincerity or play, as a prince, it is too rare to be able to give such a respectful salute to his courtiers.
Seeing this, Dong Sheng leaned back and almost fell on the seat.
The old man hurriedly stood up, bypassed the table, stretched out his hands to help Shao Fang up, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, what is this doing, this is killing the old minister."
Shao Fang's eyes were ruddy, and he choked up and said: "Ning Guo's ambition is obvious, its goal is definitely not the land of the Wind Country, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are all looking forward to Ning Guo's horse, flattering, wagging their tails and begging for mercy, only Dong Xiang has a far-reaching vision and a clear vision, this is really the heaven will not kill my Mo country."
Shao Fang was able to say such a thing, which also surprised Dong Sheng, and sighed again and again in his heart, it seems that he looks down on this second highness too much, His Royal Highness Shao Fang is by no means a mediocre and incompetent person Dong Sheng hurriedly saluted and said: "Your Highness is serious, at least there are His Royal Highness above the royal court and the old minister have the same idea." ” For a long time, Dong Sheng did not express his position on the matter of the prince, not because he coveted the favor of the princes, but felt that as a courtier, he should not interfere with the establishment of the prince, this is a family affair of the royal family, and the courtiers are all outsiders.
The eldest prince was born blind, no matter how talented he is, no matter how capable he is, but he can't even see the twists and turns, how can he be the king of a country and the second prince Shao Fang, who is gloomy and moody, and can't tell whether his ability is good or bad, once he becomes a king, he will be a generation of tyrants; The third prince Shao Bo, although benevolent and righteous, but like the current king, indecisive, lack of assertiveness, easy to be controlled, if he is a king, there are good ministers around him to assist, if the ministers are successful, the Mozambican country will die, and there is a more important point, Shao Bo is too close to the Ning country, if he presides over the government, the Mozambican country will suffer from it.
As for the other princes, they all have their own shortcomings, one is not as good as the other, and in Dong Sheng's heart, there is really no one who is the best candidate for the crown prince.
At this time, Shao Fang said such a thing, how could he not be impressed Of course, Shao Fang didn't think that Ning Guo could threaten Mo Guo before, this was all Tang Yin's indoctrination in him, last night, Tang Yin mentioned more than once that if Feng Guo was completely destroyed by Ning, then Ning Guo's next target must be Mo Guo, Tang Yin's idea coincided with Dong Sheng.

Shao Fang is now learning and using it, and he said it casually, and it happened to be in Dong Sheng's heart.
Now there is no need for Shao Fang to take the initiative to ask for help, but Dong Sheng took the initiative to say: "Your Highness is eloquent and strategic, Mo Guo is very lucky, Mo people are very lucky, and the old minister is willing to assist His Highness and win the supreme title."
This sentence made Shao Fang almost jump so high that he even wondered if he was dreaming.
What kind of person is Dong Sheng, with the support of Dong Sheng, it is not just the support of a right minister, but the support of a large group of important ministers, above the royal court, Dong Sheng's power is not small, there are not a few ministers who look forward to him, and he can get the support of such a faction, why worry that he can't become a prince Shao Fang bowed to the ground again, and said urgently: "With Dong Xiang to help me, great things can be done" After speaking, he forcibly suppressed his excited mood, and said with a sad face: "It's just that my father has chosen the third brother as the candidate for the crown prince, I" Dong Sheng smiled and said: "Although it has been decided, but before the edict is announced, there are still variables in the matter, even if the edict is announced, the crown prince is not unshakable." ” "Oh" Shao Fang's spirits were lifted, and he hurriedly asked: "Dong Xiang has a way to change his father's decision" Dong Sheng nodded, but immediately shook his head again, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and you have to take your time." ” Shao Fang saw that Dong Sheng was confident, his mood relaxed, and he didn't ask any more questions, he said with a straight face: "Dong Xiang is willing to help me, if I am the king in the future, I will definitely add the title of Dong Xiang, give me a fief, and let the Dong family be powerful for generations."
His promise was heavy enough, but Dong Sheng didn't care about these at all, he smiled indifferently and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for valuing the old minister so much."
The old minister doesn't care about glory and wealth, but he doesn't imagine that Pengchen will become a minister of his subordinates like Pengchen "Zhong Tian is a minister to Ning Guo, even the monarch is a minister, so what are the courtiers below."
Shao Fang didn't feel anything, but Tang Yin and Zong Yuan could empathize, and at this time, Tang Yin suddenly said: "If Dong Xiang wants to keep Mo from being threatened by Ningguo, we should join forces to fight Ning":
