Chapter 1807 Everyone has their own selfish motives
Why is Soga Ezo so prestigious?
Isn’t it because under his leadership, the Suga family can always stand at the pinnacle of the Japanese nobility and can seek greater benefits for the people...
Now that Sumoli has pushed the family to the level of a royal family in one fell swoop, the interests of the clan members can be fully maximized, more than twice as much as before. Under such circumstances, no matter who has high prestige, even if it is just a grandson or great-great-grandson, everyone is willing to follow his lead!
However, Sumo's logic is still hesitant. Why: "But the old master has clearly expressed his refusal. No matter how much I try to persuade him, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make him change his mind. How arrogant, stubborn and stubborn is that man? You It’s not that I don’t know.”
He was one generation older than Soga Ezo, but he was only a few years older. He had lived under the aura of Soga Ezo his whole life, and he didn't believe it even if he said he was unscrupulous.
Moreover, he knew Soga Ezo's stubbornness very well, and he didn't even have the slightest confidence to persuade him...
Su Ga Mingtai suggested: "Why bother to persuade the eldest brother? My father can completely do his own thing. Now with the support of the Tang people, we can completely leave the eldest brother aside. As long as the established facts are established, the whole family will support my father. Even if the eldest brother objects, so what?”
Sumari was stunned for a moment: "Is it an established fact?"
Mingta Suga nodded fiercely. The father and son looked at each other, and both saw the sinister coldness in each other's eyes...
A person who is petty is not a gentleman, and a person who is not poisonous is not a husband!
As long as you do something irreversible, even if Soga Ezo refuses, so what?
After all, he cannot oppose the determination of all the tribesmen to pursue higher interests, and may even be criticized by the tribesmen for this.
With the support of the Tang Dynasty, Sumo Lishi and his son will completely take the lead and become the ones leading the family's progress...
Sumo slammed the table hard and gritted his teeth and said: "Since my son yearns for that position, how can my father, an old fool who is about to enter the coffin, retreat despite the difficulties? I can't say, I will fight. This old life will create a great hegemony for future generations!”
"Come here!"
"My son, lead a hundred soldiers to Orange Temple!"
"Put on the armor for the old man, and the rest are going to follow me to Pangai Palace!"
"Invite the envoy from the Tang Dynasty quickly!"
"Today, I will fight for the future generations of my family and see if I can win a lasting and grand hegemony!"
……
*****
Wang Xuance and Jin Famin had just been placed in a monastery. After washing up, and before they had dinner, someone came to inform him that Sumo Lishi had invited him to meet him and discuss important matters.
Wang Xuance was inexplicably excited and said to Jin Famin: "Big things can be done! From now on, Silla has no worries anymore. When you have time someday, Brother Jin should treat me to a drink!"
The three Koreas were bullied by the Japanese, and Silla, which faced each other across the sea, was the most vicious. If the Soga family could usurp the throne and seize the power of the emperor with the support of the Tang Dynasty, the biggest beneficiary would be Silla. At the same time, not only were the allies of the Tang Dynasty no longer bullied by the Japanese state, but they were able to get the support of the Japanese state to fight against Goguryeo and Baekje...
Jin Famin was sincerely convinced and bowed his head to the ground: "Then I accept your auspicious words, and I wish you success in achieving this great feat and a prosperous career in the future!"
Wang Xuance laughed, turned around and walked out of the monastery, going to meet Suama Lishi.
Seeing Wang Xuance's arrival, Sumo Lishi stood up and said straight to the point: "If I were to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, how much help would I get?"
Wang Xuance was completely relieved. Knowing that the big thing had been accomplished, he said solemnly: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. The one who formed an alliance with you is not the Tang Dynasty, but my Marquis."
"How dare you tease my father and son?!" Mingta Suga was furious.
Datang and Fang Jun, can they be the same?
One is a super empire that dominates the world, and the other is a mere marquis...
There was a sneer on Wang Xuance's face, but he was not annoyed: "You are just a mere family, and you are not able to control the power of the family. What qualifications do you have to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty? My Marquis is in charge of the navy and controls sea trade. In terms of strength, than you The family is more than ten times stronger? Now that I have come here, I already think highly of you and your son. Those who understand the current affairs are heroes. It will not be too late to discuss an alliance with the Tang Dynasty when you and your son become emperors." br>
The Japanese are capricious and willful, and cannot be obeyed at any time. They have to show toughness from time to time, which in turn makes them more obedient and willing to be encouraged.
The expressions on the faces of Sumo Lishi and his son were not good-looking, but since they had made a decision, they would not change it easily, and they also admitted that Wang Xuance's words were good. Look at what the Tang navy did in Annan and Linyi. I knew that there must be enough power to help them conquer the Japanese country and usurp the throne.
"In this case, please send people to Nambajin immediately, and order soldiers to come to Asukakyo to help me shock the people and establish my hegemony!"
"It's a deal!"
"It's hard to chase a horse!"
"Pah!"
Wang Xuance and Sumo Lishi high-fived each other three times as an oath of alliance!
Sugamo said solemnly: "I will mobilize my soldiers as soon as possible to help me calm the situation in Asukakyo and frighten the world's feudal countries. If necessary, please go to war."
Wang Xuance naturally agreed, and after some discussion and agreement on various cooperation details, he left.
The heavy rain is still falling with no intention of stopping, and it is expected that the Asuka River will be flooded by tomorrow at the latest.
Wang Xuance looked up at the dark sky, the excitement and ecstasy in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and a proud smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth...
The Soga family's rebellion is bound to cause irreparable turmoil to the Japanese political situation. In addition, the Eni people in the north, who have already sharpened their skills, are marching south to attack the city and seize territory. Only the Tang Dynasty can become the savior of the Japanese people. Strength allowed the turbulent Japanese country to continue.
By that time, wouldn't the powerful Japanese country still allow the Tang army to take whatever they wanted?
As for Sado Island and the maritime trade monopoly... haha.
Immediately, Wang Xuance sent his guards to Nambajin and transferred the soldiers on the ship to Asukakyo.
Suga Mingta personally led people to Tachibana Temple, and Suga Murishi also wore armor and led a group of dead soldiers to Pangai Palace in the rain overnight.
Itakai Palace is a place where the royal family gathers, and most of the emperor's bloodline live here. The four gates have long been blocked by the soldiers of the Soga family, and no one is allowed to enter or exit at will.
Suama rushed to the palace gate, and was greeted by the younger members of the clan.
"The clan elder came here late at night, but what's the important thing?"
"Hurry and wait for me to see the Prince of the Sea People."
"Yes."
Soga Rise's status in the Soga family was so high that no one dared to defy him, let alone question him. Dang even took him straight into the palace and went to the residence of Prince Kaito, the son of Emperor Kogoku and the younger brother of Prince Katsuragi. .
Although I had doubts about the group of dead soldiers following Souma Lishi, I didn’t even dare to ask more questions...
During the heavy rain, Pangai Palace, which had just experienced a bloody mutiny during the day, became much colder and quieter. Oil lamps were lit in the palaces in groups of twos and threes. There were soldiers from the Suga family standing guard in front of the door, patrolling back and forth. No one dared to easily Go out for fear of causing disaster.
All the royal family were frightened to death. Who could have expected that Prince Katsuragi would actually launch a mutiny and assassinate Soga Iruka? Who could have expected that even His Majesty the Emperor would die in this mutiny?
Faced with the opportunity to usurp the throne, the Suga family hesitated to take the next step. How could the royal family not see this possibility?
No one knows where the Suga family will go. The royal family is just tied up in the palace, waiting for the judgment of fate...
The prince of the people of the sea sat blankly in the palace. There was dinner on the table, but he didn't move it.
He didn't know why such a change happened suddenly. He admired and complained about Prince Katsuragi...
No royal family wanted to see the Soga family being so powerful that they controlled the government and used the emperor as a puppet. Prince Kaito, like his brother Prince Katsuragi, even dreamed of one day eradicating the Soga family and returning power to the royal family.
But you just did it, but failed, causing the entire royal family to suffer the consequences you brought, which makes people feel resentful...
"Bang!"
The palace door was kicked open without warning, and the prince of the people of the sea was frightened. When he looked up, he saw Suamalishi in armor rushing in with a group of dead soldiers wrapped in the wind and rain.
Prince Dahai's heart instantly sank to the bottom, and he swallowed. Before he could ask, Suamali waved his skinny palm and said in a cold voice: "Kill!"
The Prince of the Sea People was horrified and turned to run away, but several soldiers rushed up and pushed him to the ground. They covered his mouth and stabbed his body with several steel knives.
Dark red blood flowed out, and the eyes of the Prince of the Sea People protruded. He only twitched for a while and then became silent again.
Blood is flowing, and the rain is pouring outside the palace...(End of this chapter)
