Chapter 418: Countermeasures
Chapter 418
"By the way, father, just now you said that you have something important to discuss with me and Uncle Jing, what is the matter? You didn't discuss with the emperor in the study, but you came to ask me and Uncle Jing? ”
As soon as Zuo Idiot's voice fell, he saw Zuo Yuanfeng hand over the secret letter that he had shown to Emperor Zhengcang before, and saw Zuo Idiot take it from his hand, so he said:
"This is a letter sent by the secret guard Kuaima before dawn today, and it was written by Wu Jue himself."
"Wu Jue? Isn't he staying in the palace to protect the queen mother at the moment according to Zuo's instructions? Could it be that something happened in the capital? Hearing this, Chu Jing looked at the letter in Zuo Idiot's hand and couldn't help but wonder.
But seeing that Zuo Idiot had already read the letterhead in his hand, at this moment Zuo Idiot handed the letter to Chu Jing, shook his head and said:
"No, I can't say what happened, it's just that the current situation is not very optimistic, but it's not the time to turn the tables around."
When Zuo Yuanfeng heard this, he looked at Zuo Idiot, because according to Zuo Yuanfeng's understanding of his son, Zuo Idiot must have a plan in his heart whenever he can say such a thing.
Chu Jing had also read the letter written by Wu Jue himself at this moment, and said indifferently with a look in his eyes:
"Zuo Idiot is right, even if Concubine Song Guifei has mastered most of the defense of the capital and the palace now, it is still too early to say that she has completely controlled the situation in the capital and the palace. What's more, the emperor had already set up the crown prince the year before last, if there was really something wrong with the emperor's personal expedition this time, it was His Royal Highness the crown prince who should inherit the throne, and the eighth prince just wanted to sit on the throne, and he was afraid that he would not be rightly named. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Yuanfeng nodded and said:
"Now looking at the two of you like this, you must have some thoughts about the situation in the capital, you are afraid that you don't know yet, I have submitted this letter to the emperor to read in person, but I and the emperor are both bitter about the current situation in the capital, so I said that I want to come to you. Since you two also have ideas, then you can go with me to meet the emperor, if there is any way, you can explain it to the emperor in person. ”
Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing glanced at each other when they heard this, and they both nodded.
In addition to the soldiers patrolling back and forth in the General's Mansion at night, there was still no one outsider walking around the many visitors, and the entire backyard of the General's Mansion was quiet, not at all like the appearance of returning from a victorious battle.
Zuo Yuanfeng walked in front, Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing followed behind, and walked towards the study of the General's Mansion.
But when passing by the guest room, Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing were both stunned.
Zuo Yuanfeng heard that the footsteps behind him stopped, and he couldn't help but turn around to look at it in confusion, but saw Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing both looking at a guest room with heavy expressions.
Seeing this, Zuo Yuanfeng was about to open his mouth to ask, but he also faintly heard a soft sobbing and murmuring, and then he reacted, it turned out that the person living in that room was the only girl among them - Nie Yao.
"Yao'er, that child, looks arrogant and willful on weekdays, but this heart is really good. When Deng Si'er was here, Yao'er and Deng Si'er always quarreled endlessly, but in fact, what Yao'er thought about Deng Si'er, not only his father, but even all of us could see it. Originally, I thought that if I waited for Yao'er and Deng Si'er to grow up and become adults, maybe they would be able to do a good thing, but it's a pity that they are ...... now" Zuo Yuanfeng thought of the time when he was chatting with Nie Zaizhi and Mo Lidao, and when they talked about it with laughter, they were full of joy and happy to see it.
Who would have thought that how long had passed, and before Nie Yao and Deng Si'er had talked about marriage, Deng Si'er would go......
"Zuo idiot, Nie Yao's child attaches great importance to friendship, and he will definitely not be able to bear Deng Si'er's departure for a while, if you have a chance, go and persuade her." Chu Jing retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at the left idiot beside him, and sighed softly.
Hearing this, Zuo Idiot also took his gaze back, nodded and said:
"I understand, don't worry, Yao'er...... Not as fragile as you think. ”
Zuo Idiot couldn't help but think of it at this moment, when he and Deng Si'er embarked on the journey to the north after the two of them 'faked their deaths', Deng Si'er had talked about when he was in the capital Anguo Marquis's Mansion, when he faced Chu Jing's non-farewell and Deng Si'er couldn't bear to almost collapse, Nie Yao had persuaded Deng Si'er, at that time, Zuo Idiot understood that Nie Yao's seemingly willful and pampered appearance was actually stubborn and resolute in her heart.
After Zuo Idiot finished speaking, Zuo Yuanfeng and Chu Jing nodded one after another, and the three of them continued to walk in the direction of the study.
"Your Majesty, the left idiot and the nameless dark lord are here."
Outside the door of the study, Zuo Yuanfeng said respectfully.
The words 'nameless dark master', Chu Jing still heard the words from Zuo Yuanfeng's mouth for the first time, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned, even if he understood that it must be the one in the study who didn't want him to impersonate that person's name, so he didn't care.
"Come in."
Chu Jing was thinking about it, when he heard Emperor Zhengcang's calm voice coming.
When the three of them heard this, they slowly walked into the study.
"We're a little bit of a fool and see the emperor."
"Cao Ming, see the emperor."
Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing were about to kneel down and salute as they spoke, and Emperor Zhengcang stepped forward and raised his hand to stop him, saying:
"It's not in the palace right now, so you don't want to be so polite. Just stand and talk. ”
Hearing this, the two arched their hands at Emperor Zhengcang and nodded.
Emperor Zhengcang saw that Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing looked normal, except for the inevitable trace of regret and sorrow between his eyebrows, he did not show any major mood fluctuations, and couldn't help but nod lightly and said:
"Wu Jue's letter, you must have both read it, right? In this study, both the general and I don't have a perfect countermeasure to the current situation in the palace in the capital, so I thought about discussing it with the two of you, and I must wipe out all the Song Guifei and the others, and leave no one behind. ”
Zuo Idiot and Chu Jing glanced at each other when they heard this, only to see Zuo Idiot Mountain take a step forward and say:
"Your Majesty, the minister and Uncle Jing also have this intention. Song Guifei was able to control most of the defense and central forces in the palace in the capital after the emperor left Beijing, and it must have been secretly planning for a day or two. Weichen is brave, if the former emperor hadn't changed the choice of heir before his death, I am afraid that the eighth prince who is still in infancy will be sitting on the throne now. When Concubine Song Guifei saw that she couldn't control the government, she would definitely hold a grudge. The emperor has been on the throne for so many years, and he has governed the country in a way and is deeply loved by all the people. Seeing that there was no chance to take advantage of it, Song Guifei could choose to be so forbearing, just waiting for the last opportunity to seize the throne, it can be seen how big and deep your ambitions and the city are. ”
Emperor Zhengcang nodded when he heard this, and when he and Zuo Yuanfeng were discussing in the study, he also talked about this, thinking of the great ambitions of Song Guifei and his son Eighth Prince, he couldn't help frowning, raised his eyes to look at Zuo Yuanfeng, Zuo Yuanfeng's father and son, and Chu Jing, and asked:
"In your opinion, now, what should be the next step?" (To be continued.) )
