Chapter 603: Tangled
Before, Xiao Diyuan thought that the most suitable were his subordinates Zhang Jin and Guo Fan, but after two or three years of observation, he felt that although Zhang Jin and Guo Fan's ability was enough, their courage and eloquence were not enough, and he wanted to let the two people sent quickly become among the important ministers of Yunguo before the end of next year, so I am afraid that the best way is to find it from Yunguo.
But then it comes to the question of whether you can find the right person and whether others are willing to cooperate.
So he replied to Wang Ding, asking Wang Ding to find two collaborators among the existing important ministers of Yunguo, so that he could not only be quiet, but also keep it in place.
Of course, whether you can find it depends on luck, and whether others are willing to help depends on Wang Ding's ability.
"It's best to find someone who opposes He Dapeng's philosophy. Xiao Diyuan reminded at the end of the letter.
After writing the letter, Xiao Diyuan finally fell asleep, but he didn't sleep very peacefully.
There's going to be a lot to follow up and plan for, and he can imagine how busy he's going to be in the next four or five years, and how challenging he's going to be.
Despite the pressure, he didn't have the slightest intention of backing down, because he knew that if he did, the cost would be even greater.
The world is difficult and the human heart is cunning, but there are still beautiful things in this world that are worth fighting for.
Emperor Xiao Hong received a secret letter jointly written by Zhuge Qingyun and Dongfang Yan fifteen days later, and immediately sat down on the chair.
In this way, Xiao Diyuan already knows at least seven or eight times.
Now, Xiao Diyuan is telling Xiao Hong in a way that is not drastic, wanting to see what Xiao Hong will do.
Xiao Hong touched the teacup with trembling hands, and drank the cup of tea that was still warm with trembling, and then gasped and asked his personal father-in-law to invite Queen Liu to come over immediately.
When the queen arrived, Xiao Hong's face was pale, his eyes were blank, and he seemed to have suffered a great blow.
"What's wrong with Your Majesty?" asked the Empress as she hurriedly stepped forward.
Xiao Hong raised his hand to signal his father-in-law and palace maids to step back, looked at Liu Shi blankly and said, "He knows." ”
Liu didn't react for a while, but he understood in a blink of an eye, grabbed his hand and asked anxiously, "How could he know? ”
Xiao Hong waved his hand and said, "Obviously, I didn't know it from you, but how he learned it, I can't figure it out for a while." ”
Then Xiao Hong gasped heavily.
Liu hurriedly stood behind him and helped him caress his back to make him feel more comfortable.
At this time, Liu's hands were also trembling.
If he knew, he would definitely find a way to verify with the king of Zhao and the queen mother, and at that time, the matter would rise between countries. Xiao Hong said in a deep voice.
Liu said: "The person who is currently in his hands will be the one who took away the three princes of Zhaoguo back then?"
Xiao Hong: "It's possible, but what makes me wonder is - I have sent someone to secretly dispose of him back then, why is he still alive now?"
Liu: "Maybe he wasn't burned to death at the time?"
Xiao Hong: "But at that time, I cut his tongue first, even if he wasn't burned to death, he would have died of excessive bleeding from his tongue." Then he frowned. "Unless he's rescued right after our people are gone. ”
This is a bit strange, the place where the man was at that time was a barren mountain and a wild mountain, who could have rushed to save him in time?
He had to confirm whether the person Xiao Diyuan had caught now was the person he was at that time, if so, the matter was very urgent, if it was just a replacement that Xiao Diyuan had found, then things would be much easier.
However, if he asked Xiao Diyuan for someone clearly, it would immediately expose the panic in his heart, which would make Xiao Diyuan even more convinced that this matter was planned by him behind the scenes.
So, how do you find out the true identity of the person in the Shuangzhu City Prison?
It is said that the man's face is now highly burned, and it is impossible to judge from his appearance, and the only thing that can provide judgment is the voice. However, things have been separated by more than ten or twenty years, and people's voices will change, let alone a person who has already had his tongue cut.
Xiao Hong sighed and said, "It's hard to confirm the true identity of the person who was arrested now. ”
Liu also nodded: "Unless he is willing to admit it." But it was clear that he would not admit it. ”
Xiao Hong sighed again and said, "Then let's think about it again." ”
Liu nodded.
After two days of tossing and turning, Xiao Hong finally decided to treat it as if he didn't know about it at all.
"If we go and ask that person, it will alarm King Guangxian, and then our motives will be self-evident, which is not a good way. Let's just assume that we don't know about this at all, and see what King Guangxian will do. Xiao Hong said that when he said the word 'King Guangxian', his voice was a little strange.
He no longer calls Xiao Diyuan 'Yuan'er'.
When Liu Shi heard this, he sighed and said: "Then let's do it first, after all, the 'Ninth Five-Year Race' is coming soon, and this time it will be held in Zhaoguo, so we can't act rashly." ”
So Xiao Hong not only never mentioned this matter, but also wrote a letter to Xiao Diyuan, asking him to prepare for the competition, and asked him to come to the capital in mid-August to meet the other contestants, so that they could set off to Zhaoguo to compete together.
In the following days, Guo Ba never revealed anything about the murder of the third prince that year, and Xiao Diyuan did not interrogate him again, the two lived their own lives as if they were living in different worlds.
However, Guo Ba's mood during this period of time was extremely complicated, as Xiao Diyuan said, he knew that keeping that secret until now would not bring benefits to him, and if he said it, although it would cause turmoil between the two countries, it would at least reveal a fact that had been hidden for nearly 20 years, which was at least extremely useful for the victims.
However, he is a native of Akeno, and his heartfelt love for the country makes him not want to talk about it, after all, if he says it, it will be very detrimental to the monarch of Akeno and the entire Akeno country.
Moreover, it was an extremely sinister thing for the king of Shu to take away the prince of Zhao Kingdom, and if he still had a little conscience, how could he always cover up his sins for such a monarch?
When he thought of this, the boundaries between nations became less important in his mind, and the truth of the matter began to lie above these concerns.
Guo Ba decided to inform Xiao Diyuan of what happened that year.
So, one morning, he asked the prison keeper to invite Xiao Diyuan to come.
Xiao Diyuan was having breakfast, and when he learned about it, he immediately put down his breakfast and went to see him.
