Chapter 349: A Traitor Who Loves the Empire Deeply
Sixth Prince, are you very idle on weekdays?"
After Dongfang Shuo sat down by himself, he picked up the teacup and asked, and then took a sip of tea. It's still enlightenment tea.
The sixth prince smiled and asked, "Why do you say this?"
"Every time you come, you're either drinking tea or making tea, as if you don't have anything else to do, you're just making tea and drinking tea all day long. Dongfang Shuo said, and put the teacup back on the table.
Even so, he knew that the Six Princes would not be angry.
As he expected, after he finished speaking, the sixth prince chuckled.
Subsequently, the sixth prince said: "I won't tell you, just a few days ago, this king himself had such doubts." ”
"Right?"
Dongfang Shuo raised his eyebrows, with an expression as if he had seen a confidant.
But gossip like this, the Six Princes did not intend to continue.
"Now that the greetings are over, it's time to get down to business. The Sixth Prince said, "First of all, I want to congratulate you, you have completed the king's commission quite perfectly. ”
The corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth hooked: "Otherwise, how can you be willing to say what I want to know?"
As soon as his words fell, the six princes suddenly squinted.
Subsequently, the sixth prince said: "However, your act of giving medicine to those three people separately has made the king's evaluation of your completion of the commission this time have been lowered." ”
"I have no grievances with them, hurt their muscles and bones, and ruin their reputation, is it a little impersonal?" Dongfang Shuo said, and then picked up the teacup again.
The sixth prince smiled and said, "In that case, why not be ruthless to the end?"
"I don't like to do things perfectly, otherwise there will be no room for manoeuvre afterwards. With that, Dongfang Shuo took another sip of tea.
After hearing these words, the sixth prince did not speak immediately, but looked at him quietly, waiting for him to drink tea.
When Dongfang Shuo put down the teacup again, the sixth prince finally spoke: "But you helped me after all, and slapped the prince in the face, this matter, there is no room for you to maneuver." ”
"Perhaps. ”
Dongfang Shuo shrugged.
At this moment, in his heart, it was still the original thought.
What is wrong is wrong, what has been done, instead of regretting it, it is better to think about the future.
Seeing his attitude, the sixth prince was also a little surprised, so he said: "Since this is the case, then I will tell you what Mr. Dongfang wants to know as promised." ”
"Listen up. ”
Immediately, Dongfang Shuo was sitting in danger.
Seeing this, the six princes, who wanted to speak out, suddenly became confused, and immediately asked: "This king suddenly wants to ask, why is Mr. Dongfang so obsessed with the cause of Wu Yi's death?"
Dongfang Shuo thought about it for a while, and then gave an answer: "Curious." ”
Truth be told, if it weren't for the good rewards for system tasks, why would he be like this?
A god pump, it's really not bad.
Moreover, in the process of completing the task, he also made a lot of money, and it was not in vain for him to bother.
"Heh, it seems that Mr. Dongfang doesn't believe me?" the sixth prince smiled, "You are a newcomer from outside the territory of the empire, but you can rule the twenty-eight counties of my empire, what you want to do must be extraordinary." ”
"It's really just curiosity, it's the sixth prince who thinks too much. ”
Seeing this, Dongfang Shuo also smiled and said, "The sixth prince is not so much talking about this, it is better to talk about it quickly." ”
The sixth prince smiled again and said, "So, Mr. Dongfang is acknowledging that you are from outside the territory of the empire?"
Hearing this, Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
It was counted again.
However, if the six princes had different intentions, they should have done it a long time ago.
At this time, in the eyes of the six princes, there was no murderous intent at all.
It can be seen that he still wants to win over Dongfang Shuo.
"Not only that, but I can tell you that I am not from the territory of the Seven Kingdoms. Dongfang Shuo said.
If you make the words clear, you can also eliminate the worries and suspicions in the hearts of the six princes.
If they come from other empires, the Six Princes are bound to be suspicious.
"That's North Xuzhou. The Sixth Prince said.
Dongfang Shuo was puzzled: "North Xuzhou?"
"Isn't it?"
“...... Sort of. ”
"Let's get down to business. The sixth prince said, "The three people I want you to teach are the culprits who set up a situation back then, framed Wu Yi and caused him to have the poison of the demon spirit in his body. ”
"If that's the case, the six princes don't seem to have used the right words, right?" Dongfang Shuo said, "The three of them are the prince's subordinates, and the culprit should also be the prince, right?"
"The rules in the palace are unsubstantiated and unsubstantiated, and they cannot be arbitrarily judged, even if they see it with their own eyes. After the six princes said that, they tasted the tea, and they had a relaxed and happy look.
Dongfang Shuo couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "But this is not in the palace. Could it be that the six princes are on their own territory, and they are afraid that the wall has ears?"
The sixth prince put down the teacup, looked at Dongfang Shuo, and smiled a little meaningfully.
"I'm really scared. The sixth prince nodded and said, "Just as the prince has my spies by his side, I naturally have the prince's spies by my side, except for the king himself, anyone can be a spy." And that includes her. The words are naturally Xia Chunxiao.
Dongfang Shuo turned his head to look at Xia Chunxiao, and quickly moved his gaze back.
"It's really a brotherhood. Dongfang Shuo sighed.
"False praise. The sixth prince said, "However, regardless of whether there is a prince behind it or not, it is the three of them who do the work." It is only natural to teach them a lesson. But what the king didn't expect was that you would use this way to make money. ”
"Making money is a trivial matter, and the six princes can get it with one eye and one eye closed. Dongfang Shuo stopped.
"There are only two people in the empire who dare to talk to this king, one is the father and the other is the crown prince. Now, you're the third. The Sixth Prince said.
Dongfang Shuo said: "But since you want to teach a lesson, why did you remember it after five years?"
"I had a lot of inconveniences, and I was so entangled in mundane tasks that I almost forgot about it after a long time. The Sixth Prince said.
"Listening to your previous remarks, Wu Yi seems to have some friendship with you, and you can forget the person who harmed him, and you really have a big heart. Dongfang Shuo rolled his eyes.
"It's really helpless, there are too many mundane affairs. ”
"There are too many mundane affairs, and you still have the leisure and elegance to drink tea all day long?"
"I don't want to talk to you. The sixth prince smiled, paused, and continued, "After he was poisoned, it didn't take long for him to take the initiative to let Xian give it to Shen Gongjin. Then, the previous defender of Longlin City suddenly gave an order to let Wu Yi spy on the enemy situation in Guihai City. ”
"Suddenly?" Dongfang Shuo wondered.
"I guess I received someone's secret order. ”
"But who is this former Longlin City Guard, and why is it Lu Yanzhang now?"
"It doesn't matter who that person is, as for why, I'll say later. The sixth prince said, "However, this is not a death order, and Wu Yi can also refuse on the grounds of injury." ”
"In that case, wouldn't it be nice to refuse?"
"Just because it's not a death order, that's the most vicious. The person who gave the order should know Wu Yi's character very well, and the more he came to such a time, the more he didn't force him, the more he wouldn't refuse. ”
"Those who can instigate the guards must be in a high position, such a big man, do everything possible to set up a situation to kill Wu Yi, why? If I remember correctly, Wu Yi seems to be just a concubine, right?"
"It's because he's a concubine. ”
"How?"
"The martial family is not a big family, and the concubine of the martial family is even less worthy of mention in the empire. Such a person, sitting in the first position on the earthly evil list, who is convinced?" said the sixth prince, "And the one who is in a high position is also afraid of him, afraid that he will make waves." ”
"What storm?"
"As I said, I want to make this world, only the strong have the final say. If Wu Yi, the concubine of a small family, a person who is not worth mentioning, can sit in a higher position, my ambition can be realized. ”
Hearing this, Dongfang Shuo nodded thoughtfully and said, "Therefore, those hereditary magnates are afraid?"
"Yes, I'm afraid. After a pause, the sixth prince sighed before he continued, "After receiving the order, he dragged it out for half a month, and I thought it was hesitation, so I went to persuade him to give up." Who knows, he just wants to wait for the poison to be lighter before accepting the order. ”
"You ever wanted to give up your ambitions for him?"
"At that time, the high mountain in front of me made me think that this road was impassable. If it doesn't work, why sacrifice for nothing?"
"It's through now?"
"That's it. ”
"How?"
The next day, he accepted the order, carried the poison on his shoulder, and hurried out of the city before I knew it. The Sixth Prince said, "A few days later, his head was delivered to the city gate, and I will learn that he assassinated the crown prince of the Guihai Empire. ”
"Unfortunately, it didn't work out. Dongfang Shuo said.
The sixth prince smiled and said, "No, he succeeded, very successful." ”
Dongfang Shuo was stunned: "How do you say this?"
The sixth prince explained: "If the prince of Guihai is really killed, there will be a bloody battle between the two countries. But as a result, the prince of Guihai was unconscious, and the emperor of Guihai was just a weak master, and the king of the backer was the second emperor in secret. The assassination of the crown prince and the fact that he was only in a coma was not enough to provoke a war between the two countries, but it was enough to achieve Wuyi's goal. ”
"Assassinating the crown prince, this is the face of the Guihai Empire, Wu Yi's purpose, is it to slap the face of the Guihai Empire?" Dongfang Shuo wondered.
The sixth prince shook his head: "What about slapping your face? The Longlin Empire doesn't recognize it, and the Guihai Empire can't do anything about it." ”
"The heads are all sent back, don't admit that they are useful?"
"What can the head of a traitor prove?" the sixth prince asked rhetorically.
Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
Then, Dongfang Shuo narrowed his eyes and said, "So, Wu Yi has become a well-known 'traitor' in this city?"
He had heard of this title for a long time, and he had asked the six princes about this matter before. However, at that time, the six princes did not say this.
"Not only this city, but also this empire, regarded him as a treacherous person, and the samurai were also ashamed of him, and refused to welcome his tablet into the temple. The Sixth Prince said. At this point, there was a bit of loneliness in his expression.
"But what did he do?" Dongfang Shuo frowned.
The sixth prince said: "In the subsequent negotiations between the two countries, the Longlin Empire took a lot of resources from the Guihai Empire with its strong national strength. After all, the Longlin Empire was just a traitor, while the Guihai Empire reneged on the Seven Nations Covenant and forcibly attacked the territory of Longlin City, and its tyrannical behavior was despised by the Six Kingdoms. ”
Dongfang Shuo sneered: "At the cost of life and fame, just a little resources?" Obviously, this is not the real purpose.
The sixth prince paused, and then continued: "It is not without a price to let the Guihai Empire bleed. If there is a traitor in Longlin City, it is a dereliction of duty by the guard, and he should be dismissed and imprisoned. By the way, the father made a wise decision to reorganize the structure of Longlin City and set up the post of deacon of the spiritual domain as the consul general. The power that had been scattered was concentrated in my hands. In this way, inside and outside the spiritual realm, obstacles are cleared. ”
"In this way, you will be able to carry out your vision in the spiritual realm, and the people in the spiritual realm, those who are high-ranking can soar to the sky, this is the way out of the cold door. Right?" asked Dongfang Shuo.
And there is no doubt that this must be the real purpose of Wuyi.
For this purpose, he was willing to leave a stench for 10,000 years.

"Yes. The Sixth Prince nodded.
"But ......" Dongfang Shuo once again showed doubts, "Why?"
Emperor, just let the guards carry the blame, why bother to rearrange the structure of Longlin City?
"Because my father is not a magnate, but an emperor. The sixth prince said, "What the powerful want is a hereditary replacement that cannot be shaken, and there is no room for sand in their eyes." And the emperor wants a thousand years of hegemony, and what he needs is not the powerful, but the people who are useful to the empire. He saw the value of Wuyi and the value of the little people. ”
