Chapter 155 The gloomy clouds are bleak and bleak
Remember [Pen โ Fun รท Pavilion in one second.], wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
In July, the whole Zhongzhou continent is full of blazing sun, and the cicadas are singing and shouting to call out the sultry heat of summer, but at this time, Zezhou of the Jin Kingdom is drizzling for days, like a long plum rainy season, and the hidden sun behind the clouds can not be seen.
On this day, the rain finally stopped, but the sky was still full of dark clouds, and the low and heavy pressure made people breathless.
Looking at the turbid water mixed with mud and sand rushing under his feet, the gloomy color on the face of the man in Xuanyi became more and more intense.
It's the third day.
It's been the third day since I came to Zezhou.
In the past few days, since he first arrived in Zezhou, he has come to the Dongze River every day to wander, watching the original clear river water become more and more turbid, and more and more sediment brought down from the mountains, his heart is anxious but always helpless.
The prince, who led the control of the disaster, was still enjoying and getting drunk with those people and officials. Last night was another hangover, and I haven't woken up yet.
Although it is the reason for the deputy disaster control envoy, with the prince's suspicion and conceit, this is obviously not the best time to move, but in front of the Dongze River flowing eastward, how many acres of fertile fields will be flooded downstream?
The man in the dark robe frowned, immersed in worry, so he didn't notice the person who was quietly coming behind him.
"The third prince is still worried?"
A voice like a clear spring in a mountain stream came, and without looking back, Hua Chen also knew who this person was.
can always calculate his location, and can guess his mind like this, who dares to talk to him like this, except for Shu Yang, the new staff member around him, who else can, who else dares?
"First in Anyang, I only felt that the mountains and rivers were affectionate, and I could express my feelings and relieve people's worries, but now I look at the torrent in front of me, but I only feel that I am just self-inflicted. If the mountains and rivers really have affection, how can they go forward like this, drowning countless innocent people?"
The person in front of him stood with his hands in his hands, straight as a pine, but his words were filled with endless compassion and desolation.
After saying this, he never looked back, but looked at the vast gloomy dome from afar: "Mr. is a sorcerer, Chen Su has the ability to understand the language of all things, can you tell Hua Chen what the mountains and rivers think, and bear to send this torrent straight down." โ
"Whether you are affectionate or ruthless, it is just a feeling imposed by man on everything in this world. The operation of natural things has its own orbital laws, even if there is God and knowledge, but there is helplessness. People are like this, so why complain about things that can't be autonomous?" Shu Yang opened his mouth and didn't answer directly, but the words he said also shocked Hua Chen.
After a while, he turned around and bowed deeply to Shu Yang: "The ancients said: 'Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years.'" Now, listening to Mr. Shu's words, Hua Chen has been enlightened. โ
"It's the third son who is smart and intelligent. Shu Yang didn't take credit, but Hua Chen knew that Shu Yang's words were neither humble nor arrogant.
I complain about the things in this world and don't know how to be compassionate and innocent, but even if they have pity, they can't speak or act, how can they resist the objective conditions of this world and follow their hearts?
Just like the Dongze River rushing away in front of him, it is also moving helplessly with the river, who can control how it goes and where it goes?
Instead of blaming this natural ruthlessness of the landscape, you might as well reflect on yourself, obviously have the ability to change all this, but because of all kinds of imprisonment and worries, you can't let go of your hands and feet, where do you have the posture to complain about this natural thing?
Thinking of this, Hua Chen let out a long sigh, and the helplessness and groaning in it were beyond words.
"The third prince doesn't have to be presumptuous. Shu Yang still spoke out suddenly, for some reason, Hua Chen did not feel dissatisfied with being spied on and knew what he was thinking, but he had a sympathy for a confidant who was hard to find.
So when Shu Yang pointed out his mood and said such a sentence, Hua Chen turned sideways slightly, ready to listen carefully to Shu Yang's next words.
"The prince's temperament is like this, even if he is not calculated today, he will inevitably fall into the way of others in the future. Rather than let all our efforts go down in the future, we might as well let him be pushed to the end from the beginning. It's a trap, but it's also a good opportunity - there is never an absolute hopelessness in this world. โ
"What do you mean by that, sir?" Turning around and looking at Shu Yang, Hua Chen's originally gloomy eyes were a little brighter.
"Since someone wants to take advantage of this, and wants to force us to retreat, then where can we advance bravely and fight with her endlessly?" Shu Yang's eyes at Shang Huachen, the original elegant and immortal look in the clouds, actually brought out a bit of ruthlessness and domineering without giving in.
Hua Chen waited for the following, and sure enough, Shu Yang began to explain: "The prince's reputation in Anyang City is now deteriorating, and the voice of the people is gradually being covered by the wisdom of the second prince, but Your Majesty always misses the queen and is unwilling to abolish the prince and re-establish the crown prince. And with the prince helping the prince in the past year, he has done a lot of things, if the disaster is done this time, even if all parties have words about the prince, at least the crown prince position cannot be shaken.
"Although Your Majesty is upright and in the prime of life, his body is not as good as day by day, and he would rather use the imperial doctor around him to recuperate, rather than fake the hand of Concubine Su, I am afraid that he is also worried. Although he snatched the position of Xishan's envoy for the second prince, after Su Guifei's move, His Majesty assigned His Royal Highness and the crown prince to take over the affairs of Zezhou, obviously to suppress the momentum of the second prince. But Su Guifei obviously couldn't wait.
"It is reported that after the words of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince were drunk back to Anyang the day before yesterday, His Majesty was very angry, but the bitter words were said by the prince himself, but he couldn't complain about others, I was afraid that next, His Majesty would put pressure on the prince. According to the time, I am afraid that the will will will be handed down in these two days. โ
When Hua Chen heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and expressed his hidden worries: "But with the temperament of the crown prince, if he sees such a will of his father, even I will be among his exclusions, right? Besides, didn't Mr. say that now when Taoguang is in obscurity, it is far from the day when he forcibly comes out?"
"The matter is out of power, and the first Taoguang is obscure, because as the identity of the prince, it is not enough to compete with the second prince, only to raise the prince, so that Huashuo can not take the lead, and at the same time let the prince be recognized by the world as an auxiliary minister, and gradually have the ability to mention the two, so that it can be replaced.
But now, it seems that Su Guifei obviously wants to directly destroy the crown prince, so that the second prince can win the greatest right to speak. I'm afraid that she has calculated that the second prince will successfully solve the matter of Xishan, and the prince's side will definitely mess up the disaster, so that all public opinion will be biased in favor of the second prince in the end, and the prince, who carries the lives of countless refugees, will definitely not be as good as Huashuo who saves the world, so that even if His Majesty has the heart to protect the prince, he will eventually have to give up this eldest son. โ
Shu Yang sighed and slowly analyzed the current situation for Hua Chen, "And judging from His Majesty's various performances, it is obvious that he does not like the second prince to be the crown prince, otherwise I am afraid that this prince will have changed a long time ago." Therefore, the biggest hole card in our hands is the support of His Majesty, and the most important thing we have to do at present is only one thing, that is, the disaster can only be successful.
As for whether he will offend the prince and whether there will be suspicion of stealing merit, I am afraid that His Majesty will care more about how the prince thinks, so there is no need to worry about this matter, when the will comes down, His Majesty will definitely not embarrass the prince. And with such an opportunity, Gongzi no longer has to wait for Xu Xu to figure it out - because this is also a good opportunity for Gongzi to officially become famous in the world and let people know that the talents of the three princes of the Jin Kingdom are not inferior to any of them. โ
Looking at Hua Chen, Shu Yang's eyes were burning, they were like falcon-like eyes, the desire to win when all the fighting spirit was stimulated, and the self-confidence and arrogance of being unwilling.
Although the wind and clouds were thick and gloomy in front of him, from his expression, he could see that the glow was dazzling.
Attracted by this scorching bright color, Hua Chen's originally somewhat sad look also became expectant, and he couldn't help but take a few steps forward: "What does Mr. mean?"
"Since the prince wants to prove himself, the prince might as well let him do his best, don't talk and do too much, and wait until he really stumbles, begins to see how many pounds and taels he has, and begins to understand how much he is capable of, and then exert what he can. โ
The corners of Shu Yang's lips showed a slight sneer, there are too many people like Prince Hua Shu, who are incapable but have a very high self-esteem.
This kind of person will not listen to his good words and persuasions, and all well-intentioned help will be regarded as ulterior motives, so it is better for him to do it himself, and wait until he really runs into a wall everywhere, messes everything up and has no way to turn for help, and the person who appears when he is panicked will win his greatest trust and dependence.
At that time, even if he was angry and didn't turn back when he opened the bow, he couldn't help but regret it.
But this is a good plan, but it is also very problematic.
"Then does this mean that there will be many needless people who will be buried under the negligence of the crown prince?" Hua Chen's expression gradually darkened.
Once with all kinds of expectations and fascinations, he wanted to find a way out for the people and save the people of Zhongzhou from fire and water, but now he has to sacrifice countless innocent people for his own selfishness and for the struggle for the throne between brothers.
He didn't understand and began to doubt his choice.
Is this really in line with one's original intention?
"Sacrifice the small for the big, since the son has all the people in his heart, why should he care about this?" Shu Yang still looked light, but the words made Hua Chen suddenly feel strange.
Maybe Mr. thinks that Hua Chen's words are a bit of a woman's kindness, but it doesn't matter if everyone is now, or all the people in the future, they should be treated equally. If Hua Chen is as timely as he can, he can't even protect the hundreds of thousands of people at the moment, how can he talk about protecting the people in the future?" Hua Chen moved his gaze to the river rolling eastward, with a bit of perseverance on his face: "Maybe Mr. thinks that the sacrifice of hundreds of people is insignificant, but for Hua Chen, he really can't agree. โ
In the past two months, for the first time, the two people, who have always been of the same mind and have never had differences, have different attitudes.
Beneath my feet was the muddy water rolling eastward, and I don't know when the morning drizzle began to drift again.
The clouds on the horizon were gloomy, and the two people standing on the hill were silent, and all their emotions were diffused in the mixed rain.
"Then what if Shu can ensure that these people are not harmed?"
The oblique wind blew, sweeping the fine rain silk on Shu Yang's face, and the corners of his lips poured out a smile that seemed to be absent, as if relieved and relieved.
"Sir?!" Hua Chen raised his head suddenly, as if in disbelief.
"It's also my fault that I didn't make it clear to His Highness. Shu Yang's smile deepened, "According to Shu's speculation, there will be a rainstorm in about five days, and before that, His Majesty's will will arrive, and the prince's first attempt will only start on these days." His Royal Highness only needs to do his own thing, as for the people who may be involved in the range downstream, leave it to Shu. โ
"Hua Chen thanked the people of Zezhou on behalf of Mr."
With great joy, Hua Chen bowed straight to Shu Yang, swaying like an unexplained picture scroll in the smoke and rain.
Benevolence and virtue are the indispensable aspects of being a monarch, but this benevolent heart, in the future in the greater temptations and trade-offs, can you continue to maintain it?
The smile on the corner of Shu Yang's lips gradually closed.
The rain was getting heavier, and it was time to go back.
Different from the continuous rain in Zezhou, at this moment, the sunlight in Anping Town, Xishan is spilling into the house through the window, shining on the hem of Luange's skirt, and the embroidered gold edge shines through the brilliant luster.
Zhao Yi listened to her question and couldn't help laughing.
Fang Cai asked her why she chose the third prince, who would have thought that this girl would actually throw out her own questions.
"Why does the prince prefer the third prince?"
The Zhao clan of Anguo Marquis has never participated in party struggles, and has always been loyal to the monarch, which is the self-evident tacit understanding between the monarchs and ministers since the founding of the Jin Kingdom, and the rules and contracts that they swear to abide by.
And at this moment, for the future successor of An Guohou, Luan Ge boldly and presumptuously asked such an uninhibited question.
What is even more surprising is that Zhao Yi did not mean to be angry.
Sometimes, it's hard to talk to smart people because they don't tell the truth, and if you're not careful, you'll get wrong.
But sometimes, it's also fun to talk to smart people, because you don't have to be too straightforward, you can see through what the other person thinks, all the light and dark, what should be said and what should not be said, are understood in the center of the wordless.
And at this moment, Zhao Yi's feeling is obviously the latter.
"Although it is said that at the same time, the good and bad of the host are also divided - if the owner can share the weal and sorrow, or the owner of the house who is well-informed and clear-minded, can still leave a place for the guest to settle down, then there is some affection between the host and the guest, and the future will be willing, but if there are those who are ignorant, either want to drive away the guests, or even want to tear down the walls and tiles of their own tile house, how can the guests not consider the matter of having no eggs under the nest?"
Laughing at Luan Ge, Zhao Yi said the last sentence: "You are a smart person, I am not stupid, and I will not do those thankless things." (To be continued.) )
