Cheng Jing was sometimes very confused, and he didn't know what Jiang Pengji was thinking.

Xu Ke now has no shortage of status or credit, he only lacks a reputation that can deter Xiaoxiao.

Just like the question Wei Ci just asked-

Xu Ke has always been loyal to Jiang Pengji, but Jiang Pengji has not let him go to the front line to make a name for himself all these years, will he complain?

If it were Cheng Jing, he would complain.

But—

"I don't think Xu Ke has any resentment about this. ”

So......

The relationship between Jiang Pengji and Xu Ke is very confused, and Cheng Jing is not easy to beak as an outsider.

Wei Ci hesitated, and couldn't help but whisper, "...... But...... Ci thought that with Xu Ke's temperament, he should not be satisfied with the rear...... Even if it does not reach the level of resentment, there should be dissatisfaction in the heart, which is human nature. ”

The experience of a past life also proves this.

Xu Ke is iron-hearted about the old master's kindness.

No matter how good His Majesty was to him later, Xu Ke still secretly plotted a rebellion, besieged His Majesty in the steep mountains, and forced her into a desperate situation. Even if the generals reacted to save it later, they all thought that His Majesty had died, because Xu Ke was too deep and too deep!

Of course, in the end, His Majesty killed all the soldiers and horses in ambush alone, and sat silently on the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood.

She killed Xu Ke with her own hands and cut off his head.

Why did Xu Ke miss his old master and even give up his good future?

Isn't it because when the old master appeared, he vigorously cultivated him, and even gave him a heavy responsibility to let Xu Ke come out of the trough.

Xu Ke attaches great importance to reputation.

This has not changed in previous or present lives.

Wei Ci didn't suspect him at first, after all, Xu Ke had been taking care of the rear with trepidation all these years, and he had worked hard and complained about the lord, who was full of suspicion of him?

He couldn't help but disprove all the original speculations and put everyone in the target of suspicion.

On this basis, he asked himself a question-

If these people were to rebel, who would be most likely to take control of the situation without causing chaos?

It can't be Qi Guanrang, it can't be Yang Si, it can't be Feng Zhen, it can't be Han Yu, it can't be Fu Wang, it can't be Li Yun, it can't be Jiang Rongqin...... These are all lords and ministers, and they have excellent performance in a certain aspect, but they can't do this. Only Xu Ke - only Xu Ke has this ability, seemingly inconspicuous but controls all the lifebloodlines. Even if the lord suddenly dies, as long as Xu Ke does not fall, the foundation of the entire power group will not collapse. Whoever he supports, who can also stabilize his position.

From this point of view, Xu Ke is the most suspicious.

But—

Wei Ci couldn't think of ironclad evidence that Xu Ke was a suspect to testify.

There's no reason for him to betray!

If it was because he didn't have the opportunity to make a name for himself and be prominent, he just said no to the lord?

How many opportunities does the main guild sting?

Will she disregard the wishes of her courtiers and forcibly imprison the other party in a field so that he cannot develop?

How can it be?

At that time, Han Yu was the first strategist under Xu Pei's account, and he could send troops to fight everything, but he was more suitable for legislation and writing.

When the lord supported him to develop in this direction, he also carefully consulted Han Yu himself, and Han Yu slowly reduced his activity in front of the battle. But if he really wants to go to the front, the lord will not refute his request. Han Yu is still like this, let alone Xu Ke?

Wei Ci was very conflicted in his heart.

Jiang Pengji was in danger at this time, he couldn't suppress his worries, but he had to restrain himself from doubting the fault.

The more you suppress your doubts, the more suspicious you are, the more suspicious you become.

Cheng Jing saw that Wei Ci's eyebrows were full of sorrow, and asked, "You suddenly mentioned this, but there is something wrong with Xu Ke?"

Wei Ci smiled bitterly, "Maybe I'm suspicious." ”

There are contradictions and wrongs in Xu Ke, but it is not enough to show that the other party betrayed.

speculated without evidence, if Xu Ke knew, their relationship would have completely collapsed, and they would never get along.

Cheng Jing said, "It's not necessarily suspicious. ”

Wei Ci: "???"

He said meaningfully, "Jiang Jun seems to be wary of Xu Ke. ”

Wei Ci's face turned pale.

Cheng Jing said, "As I said earlier, Jiang Jun is the most perceptive of people's hearts, will she not find out what Xu Ke is missing? According to her temperament, how can she tolerate her subordinates suffering such grievances? She has worried about everyone one by one, and there is no reason to skip Xu Ke, who should not be ignored. ”

Wei Ci's heart fell, and the hand resting on his lap trembled slightly.

Cheng Jing shook his head and said, "But as you said, there is no evidence for this matter, and no matter how you guess, it seems that we are suspicious." ”

To really solve the puzzle, I'm afraid it will be the moment when the mystery is revealed.

"Zixiao, is something big going to happen recently?"

Wei Ci raised his head and collided with his senior brother's eyes, and in an instant he felt like he was looking at the light, and all the secrets in his heart were naked in front of others.

He unnaturally opened his eyes, "no ......"

"If it's really nothing, according to your temperament, how can you think crankily, and even a minister like Xu Ke is suspicious?"

Not everyone has a big heart.

Some bottom lines cannot be touched, and once touched, it will offend people to death.

Wei Ci would not fail to understand this truth.

The only possibility is that he found something, and that's why he is so sad.

Wei Ci still shook his head, not saying a word more.

He almost forgot his senior brother's ability to perceive people's hearts and clichés, and it was a mistake to choose to talk to him today.

Cheng Jing said, "If you really doubt it, then don't take it lightly." ”

Before leaving, Cheng Jing raised his hand and patted Wei Ci's shoulder and whispered encouragement.

Compared with Xu Ke, he trusts his little brother more.

Wei Ci suspected that Xu Ke had a problem, and there must be some unspeakable reason.

"Something delivered?"

Mr. Yuanjing was sitting under the porch helping his wife curl wool, and when he heard that the eldest apprentice had returned, he looked up and asked.

"Well, it's sent. ”

"Look at your expression, it seems to be difficult, but something happened to your junior brother?"

Cheng Jing didn't want to reveal more about what Wei Ci said, but said, "Recently, I have been studying celestial phenomena with the teacher, and I have a hidden understanding. ”

"Hmm, what do you know, tell me about it?"

Cheng Jing pondered, "Jiang Jun's road to becoming the emperor is not very smooth. ”

Mr. Yuanjing nodded in approval, "Looks like you've learned well." ”

The master was angry, "What did you two say that was very rebellious?"

Mr. Yuanjing sighed, "It's just that there are a few twists and turns, and it's not that the gutter capsized, how can this be considered a big rebellion?"

The master snorted, snatched the ball of yarn he had rolled, got up and went to the back kitchen to see how the meal was doing, leaving space for them.

"Teacher, what do you mean ......"

Mr. Yuanjing said, "Emperor Xing is indeed facing the killing of the former wolf and the tiger, but you should always trust others, you are the son of destiny." ”

Cheng Jing: "In that case, why didn't Master warn Jiang Jun and let him prepare early?"

Mr. Yuanjing pouted, "The killing game was also set up by Jiang Jun, in order to wait for the tiger and wolf to enter the game and remind her to do something?"

Cheng Jing: "......"

"Suddenly, I regret supporting your senior brothers to enter the ranks, and when you meet such a lord, if you have a little disagreement, this day will not be easy. ”

It's not good to be too shrewd, and the ghost knows when he will be calculated.
