"He Qi!" This sound was not made by Zhao Qi, Rong Jiang listened to He Qi's words, and stood up quickly, not holding back the shock, and scolded at the moment.

Zhao Liang glanced at her without smiling, patted the table, and pointed to her previous position, and his voice was calm, making people a little puzzled: "He's not afraid, what are you panicking about?" He went to look at He Qi as he spoke, as if he looked at him carefully, and then said, "Since you know that Taifu Tai'an sent a letter to Yunzhou in August of the first year, you should know that I didn't reply to this letter, right?" ”

"I know," He Qi looked calm, not afraid of Zhao Liang's scrutiny, but looked at him, "His Royal Highness did not reply to the letter, until February of the second year of Tai'an, Taifu wrote again, or ask His Highness to think twice" He touched his chin, made a contemplative gesture, and added for a moment, "After that, I haven't stopped the correspondence between His Highness and Taifu, probably because Yunzhou has been properly settled, and His Highness has erased all these traces, right?" ”

A hint of appreciation flashed in Zhao Liang's eyes, and then he asked, "You are the Jiangbei Army that Tai'an joined in the second year, right?" Seeing He Qi nodding, he snorted, "So I have to thank you?" Your Majesty really values you, and just as soon as Yuji entrusts you with such a thing as supervising Yunzhou," he smiled inexplicably, and after a moment, he shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that it's not a person." ”

He Qi couldn't help but sigh that His Royal Highness the King was really shrewd, and with just a few words, he could guess the doorway here.

Before he could reply, he heard Zhao Liang speak again: "This matter has been holding in your heart for eight years, why are you mentioning it now?" ”

He Qi glanced at Rong Jiang first, and then went back to Zhao Liang: "Your Highness probably doesn't know that accompanying Jiangbei a while ago was my own request to Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Liang sighed, and was not surprised: "To see if I really want to rebel?" ”

He Qi shook his head, causing Zhao Qi to frown before he went back: "If Your Highness wants to rebel, he will not wait for eight years." These eight years are enough for His Majesty to sit firmly in the country, isn't it? I went to Jiangbei, just to see if His Highness is a credible and trustworthy person. ”

Rong Jiang choked Zhao Liang and then sat next to him without speaking, listening to the conversation between the two of them back and forth, but when she heard this, she understood, her eyebrows were cold, and her voice was thick when she spoke: "The person who wants to rebel is you!" ”

"Again?" He Qi asked a little weirdly, and turned his head to Rong Jiang, "Have you forgotten what I said just now?" I have been in Yecheng all these years, and what I have seen and heard is definitely not what you can imagine. Even though the Jingjun Gong Huang clan behaved misbehaps, should he really be beheaded all over the house and not a single one left? What is the Thunder Momentum for, do you need to say? He paused, "Although I am highly regarded by His Majesty, who knows what will happen in the future?" His Majesty is not a sage monarch with a big belly, so for so many years, I have never reported to His Majesty that Lord Taifu instigated the British king to usurp the throne."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Liang had already interrupted him in a cold voice: "You don't have to think about it, even if I can be trusted, you can't rely on me." Seeing He Qi stiffened, Zhao Liang squeezed out a sigh in his nose, "It is true that today's son is playing with power in the court, and it is not bad to be honorable, but he has reigned for eight years, reduced taxes, exempted from forced labor, did not build much construction, did not force conscripts, and occasionally had border riots, but he has always supported trade in border areas, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is peaceful." As he spoke, he got up, paced a few steps to the window, and looked at the scenery outside the window for a long time before continuing leisurely, "The Son of Heaven is not violent, he is not a benevolent and virtuous lord, but none of you can say that he is not a wise man." Taifu has never broken this thought for so many years, but I have never had this thought, because he really loves the people of Daye. ”

"But when you see Your Majesty harming Zhongliang, do you just let Your Majesty go on like this?" He Qi didn't know whether he was in a hurry, or a little panicked, so he stood up with Zhao Liang, and the person slammed a pestle behind Zhao Qi, and hurriedly asked.

Zhao Liang turned around to look at him, looked at Rong Jiang again, and hooked his lips: "I told Gu Ninghou that if I were him, he would do the same, but he did it more bluntly and unabashedly." He had already pressed one hand on He Qi's shoulder, "If he wants the throne to sit firmly, he has to reshuffle the cards in the court, and I came back to Beijing, not to stop him, but just so that when he makes a move in the future, I can save the lives of these loyal people, that's all." ”

He Qi was stunned for a while, he originally thought that Zhao Ju was a virtuous king, and he would not let Zhao Heng make a move on the Zhongliang of the court, but he didn't expect that he would only save their lives, regardless of whether they were suppressed.

Rong Jiang didn't feel good when she heard it, in principle, she knew that Zhao Liang was right to do this, but after all, the first thing Zhao Heng wanted to suppress was the Rong family, so when she heard Zhao Liang say this bluntly for a while, she was a little panicked and very useless.

She then stood up, and just opened her mouth to speak, but Zhao Liang took the first step and asked Shang He Qi: "You are telling me this today, do you want me to give you the glory of the He family when I win the throne one day in the future, or do you just hope that in the future, if your family also ends up with 'cunning rabbits die, lackeys cook', I can help you?" ”

He Qixin said that it must be both, which is the truth, but he can't open this mouth.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Zhao Liang sneered and let go of his hand, and took a step back to the side, but this step was closer to Rong Jiang: "Cheng Yi is a gentleman, and Rong Jiang is also a person who acts upright, but you are not," After a pause, seeing Rong Jiang glaring at him with some displeasure, he restrained himself a little, "All you think about in your heart is what your He family will do in the future, for selfish desires, but you persuade me with great righteousness." If you want me to protect you, you must always have a place worthy of my protection. ”

He Qi felt like someone had pierced his heart, and his face was blue and white for a while, which was really embarrassing.

Zhao Liang didn't press him every step of the way, so there was silence in the room.

Rong Jiang probably couldn't see He Qi deflated, after all, they were people who had fought together, she didn't want to pursue He Qi for becoming what he is now, so she wanted to open her mouth to argue a few words for him, but Zhao Liang glared at her with a warning gaze, and she was a little unconscious.

Sure enough, after half an hour, He Qi settled down, and bowed to Zhao Liang and Rong Jiang: "Tomorrow night, I will take Jiuzhu out of the mansion and wait for the general on Changmen Street in Nanshi." ”

Zhao Qi nodded with satisfaction, and then threw a look at Rong Jiang who was a little proud, and then said something innocuous and was about to take Rong Jiang away, but before going out, he stopped and turned back to He Qi and said, "The Rong family is going to propose marriage, you can persuade your father to agree to this family business." Your sister married into the Rong Mansion," he casually glanced at Rong Jiang as he spoke, before he lost his words, "Since you have an in-law relationship with the Rong family, you will be both prosperous and lose with the Rong family in the future." You are a smart person and will know what to do to be good for the He family. ”
