Chapter 118: Hesitation
As soon as Zheng Ziqi said this, Ying Zichu evoked a smile and said, "Then what is my identity now?" ”
Zheng Ziqi looked at Ying Zichu with a surprised expression, he didn't expect Ying Zichu to really refute him with his current identity as Concubine Lan, he couldn't say anything for a while, he just wanted to identify whether Ying Zichu in front of him was or not.
Ying Zichu had already retracted the smile on his face, and said seriously: "What did I ask you to do?" ”
"As you say." Zheng Ziqi glanced at him angrily, this person had already known the result, but he liked to use this matter to block him, "The empress really didn't give up Saraqianghu, looking at the empress's appearance, it seems that she has come up with another way, I'm afraid that your 150,000 grain and grass will ...... when the time comes."
Zheng Ziqi couldn't be said to be gloating at this time, and deliberately didn't say half of what he said. Ying Zichu's expression was calm, but the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile, and she said very firmly: "For these 150,000 grains and grass, she will definitely go to Shengyuan Yinzhuang to ask for it." ”
"Are you so sure?" Zheng Ziqi was curious, and continued, "After all, now the treasury has been completely emptied by Shen Taoyu's guys in private, and the empress doesn't have so much treasury silver to buy grain and grass now, and what I don't understand is that the empress has recovered Saraqianghu, which is not good for us at all, and we still have to give her this grain and grass, will it be too much of a loss." ”
Although Zheng Ziqi is an eight-sided and exquisite person, but in these things in the court, he is far from seeing as far as Lin Zhenghao, if it were Lin Zhenghao or Li Qianxun who heard this, Li Qianxun would immediately squeeze the oil and water on Ying Zichu's body now.
Ying Zichu picked up the teacup and took another sip, and said, "Ah Zi, sometimes you should really look farther away. ”
"What do you mean?" Zheng Ziqi didn't know why.
"If Saraqianghu is recovered by the empress, it will not be beneficial for us, so we will prepare grain and grass and exchange conditions with the empress." Ying Zichu looked out the window, that direction was the Chaoyuan Hall where Li Qianxun was, his expression was cold, for a while Zheng Ziqi only thought about his words, and did not notice Ying Zichu's actions at this time.
After thinking for a long time, Zheng Ziqi suddenly said clearly: "I understand, it turns out that this kid of yours is playing with this idea, so you are not afraid that the empress will dismantle you after she finds out?" ”
Ying Zichu turned his head to look at him and said, "Go back!" ”
Zheng Ziqi understood that he was giving an eviction order, but he still had something to figure out, so how could he leave easily?
So Zheng Ziqi sat more upright, the meaning couldn't be clearer, and said: "It's still early, why should I go back so early?" It's better for you to talk about it and talk about yourself. ”
Ying Zichu glanced at him faintly and didn't answer. He grew up with Zheng Ziqi, and he couldn't understand his temperament anymore, if he talked at this time, I am afraid that Zheng Ziqi could talk to himself for a night.
Who knew that Zheng Ziqi's face became serious and said, "Zichu, I think you seem to have changed. ”
Ying Zichu put down the teacup and was silent for a long time before saying, "What do you say?" ”
"Turmoil in Lebanon is a good thing for us, isn't it? We stood directly on Shen Taoyu's side, instigating Shen Taoyu to rebel, and after forcing the empress to step down, we had the benefits of the fisherman, and this matter should have been completed a long time ago, ......" Zheng Ziqi said to look back, looking at Ying Zichu's expressionless face, he suddenly had no urge to continue, "Forget it, you didn't say anything about this matter!" ”
Say it! Zheng Ziqi stood up and walked out, and when he walked to the door, Ying Zichu said: "I'm just changing the way!" ”
"You use this sentence to convince yourself first!" After Zheng Ziqi heard this, although his body stiffened, he still smiled bitterly and walked out. Ying Zichu said this, let alone whether he believed it or not, he couldn't even convince himself.
After Zheng Ziqi left, Ying Zichu fell into deep thought. Indeed, with the current situation of the Li State, the four countries can contain each other so that the Li State can be free so far, but now that he is taking action in person, the four countries don't know him at all, and they don't know his details, as long as he is willing, a little move can make the Li State become a member of the history.
But I don't know why, every time he sees Li Qianxun busy with the affairs of Li Guo, and he has to fight wits and courage with those officials, racking his heart, he will be unbearable. Although Li Qianxun always has a calm and indifferent expression, he can feel how much Li Qianxun cares about this Li country, so he chooses to stand by and watch every time he has the best opportunity.
Whether it's a bet with Li Qianxun or an exchange of conditions, it's just to give Li Qianxun a chance!
When he was in the woods, Li Qianxun could die, but he was inexplicably moved by Li Qianxun. When Concubine Wu poisoned her, he could obviously stand by and watch, but in the end, he couldn't help but use most of his internal strength to protect her lower abdomen. Nie Chen forced the palace to rebel, and he could also ask all the soldiers under him to point the knives in their hands at Li Qianxun, but he accepted Nie Chen according to the gambling contract.
After all, he missed one good opportunity after another.
Ying Zichu smiled bitterly, he always thought that what he did for Li Qianxun was unaware, but in the eyes of others, it was nothing more than him covering his ears and stealing the bell.
Li is only a small country, the population is not large, although the people are fierce, the old and weak, women and children can be used as soldiers, but Shen Taoyu alone has almost 180,000 troops in private captivity this time, except for the 20,000 imperial forest troops guarding the palace, the remaining 100,000 are still in the mountains as bandits.
Shen Tao Yu Tunbing just wanted to rebel, and this was the best result for him, but in the end, he didn't think about it and let Shengyuan Yinzhuang prepare the grain and grass that Li Qianxun lacked, which was simply a decision he made subconsciously.
His heart had made a choice for him. Li Qianxun wants it, and he wants this Li country.
It's no wonder that Zheng Ziqi is displeased, whoever stands in a place that is only a little bit away from success again and again, but is led astray by his own leader every time, who will have fire.
Ying Zichu thought of this, his mood gradually became clearer, the thoughts in his heart became more and more firm, and the corners of his mouth finally showed a smile, Li Qianxun will definitely want the grain and grass in his hands, and he will also use this to control the economic lifeline of Li Guo, and then take Li Guo into his feathers, if Li Qianxun refuses at that time, he will tie her to his side.
No matter what, he wants Li Qianxun to accompany him to see the world after reunification.
