Chapter 214: Analysis
"The fifth brother said that he was curious at that time, I think, what he was curious about should be that he proposed to let his father arrange it, and his father would really hand over the murder case of the brothel to him to investigate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info And the result is that the father really gave this hot potato to the fifth brother. ”
Liu Tong said softly, his tone was flat and not excited.
"Some time ago, the murder case in the brothel was rumored, Jing Zhaoyin went in and out of King Rui's Mansion several times, and the fifth brother also became a relevant person in this case and was placed on the cusp. Seeing that the rumors of this case gradually went down, the fifth brother also received an errand to cut the knight, but now, when he suddenly mentioned this case again, for the fifth brother, it was not just an increase in the errand. Presumably tomorrow, no, today, presumably today, the common people will discuss the murder case in the brothel again, and the fifth brother ......"
Liu Tong sighed lightly and looked at Chang Runzhi: "This case, although I don't know the specific investigation process, but you were also present on the day of the case, you should know that if this case is to be investigated, it will be difficult to investigate." ”
Chang Runzhi nodded.
After the people upstairs fell down that day, Liu Tong immediately went upstairs to investigate, only to see another corpse, and there was no trace of the murderer.
Liu Tong glanced at Chang Runzhi's stomach with some guilt: "Saying this in front of the baby, will it scare him?" ”
Chang Runzhi shook his head and reached out to pat Liu Tong's hand.
"Our children, how can they be so fragile."
Liu Tong chuckled.
Then he sighed again.
"There is still no clue about this case. The fifth brother took over, whether it was to find out the truth, or to still be at a loss for it, it was not a good thing. If it is found out, it must be that while Jing Zhaoyin is incompetent, it will cause a new round of rumors - it is difficult to say that no one has started, and framing the fifth brother is a random scapegoat, which is really bad for the reputation of the fifth brother. But if it can't be found out, and the father gave it a one-month period, wouldn't it seem that the fifth brother is incompetent? The truth in this must be clear to the father. But the father still followed this conversation and sent this errand to the fifth brother. And in the final analysis, it was the prince's person who proposed to let the fifth brother investigate the case today and 'prove his innocence'. ”
Liu Tong asked Chang Runzhi softly: "Do you know what this represents?" ”
Chang Runzhi knew in his heart that Liu Tong was not really asking her, but just confiding in her.
Sure enough, she didn't say anything, Liu Tongjing said to herself: "This means that in the eyes of my father, the fifth brother is just an errand person, and he can't compare to the weight of the prince in his father's heart - even if my father knows in his heart that the fifth brother's ability is much higher than that of the prince." ”
Liu Tong paused and said abruptly: "Perhaps, what the fifth brother is curious about is this." ”
Chang Runzhi gently patted Liu Tong's shoulder.
Liu Tong held her hand and said, "During these days, the prince has divided a lot...... Perhaps, the father felt that according to the prince's meaning, it was a reply to him. The father told the crown prince and the fifth brother through this matter that the prince was still the prince and his preferred prince. And the fifth brother is just a prince. ”
Liu Tong smiled sarcastically: "It's just a prince." ”
Chang Runzhi didn't know what to say.
Regarding Emperor Yuanwu's eccentricity, Chang Runzhi can actually understand one or two.
Emperor Yuanwu is old, and it is inevitable that people will be successful when they are old. In the nearly 20 years of his rule, the Great Wei has been calm and stable, and when he is old, he must not want to get a "late festival is not guaranteed" because of the choice of the prince. Chang Runzhi looked at it, Emperor Yuanwu wanted to become a "generation of Ming Jun" in the history books.
But the prince, the prince, is indeed not worthy of such a dynasty.
Even if the prince is stupid and has someone around him to assist, it is still feasible to be a king who keeps his success.
But the prince loves money and power and is ambitious, but he does not have the character and IQ to match.
That's it, but the prince's brothers are not things in the pool.
Therefore, Emperor Yuanwu's desperate desire for peace mud not only failed to improve the relationship between their brothers, but was counterproductive.
As for King Rui......
Chang Runzhi bowed his head slightly.
"The fifth brother must have figured it out through his father's reply." Liu Tong said softly: "Otherwise, he won't be relieved later." ”
Liu Tong paused and said, "The decision of my father did not take the fifth brother to heart. So, even if the fifth brother makes some decisions that displease his father, it must be ...... His father was no longer qualified to blame him. ”
Chang Runzhi sat on the bed and said softly: "You start to say that King Rui has decided to seize power......"
Liu Tong nodded.
"Then Ah Tong, you ......"
Chang Runzhi's words ended here, Liu Tong looked at Chang Runzhi, looked at her for a while, and then said, "When you took a nap, I was thinking about it." If the fifth brother wants to seize power, he even wants to ...... The position of the prince, how should I be. ”
Chang Runzhi's heart suddenly lifted.
This is the first time that Liu Tong has openly and honestly talked to her about the future under such a situation.
In the past, Liu Tong only knew that King Rui was far better than the crown prince, but because of King Rui's attitude, he never thought about seizing power - even if he did, he might never show it in front of others.
And now, Rui Wang's expression seems to be a signal, a signal that allows him to release all the faint thoughts in his heart in the past.
"What about you...... Have you thought about it? Chang Runzhi asked him softly.
Liu Tong nodded slowly.
He didn't speak, but Chang Runzhi had already understood his thoughts from his expression.
King Rui wants to seize power, and Liu Tong will definitely help him.
Chang Runzhi had imagined countless times what would happen to Liu Tong if King Rui had the heart for that supreme position.
Every time she conceived, she would smile bitterly at the end.
No matter from which point of view, Liu Tong's choice seems to be "King Rui wants it, and he will support it." ”
Chang Runzhi lowered his head slightly: "Ah Tong, you want to help King Rui, have you ever thought about the consequences in the future if you fail?" ”
"I've thought about it."
Liu Tong nodded, reaching out to support Chang Runzhi's shoulders, forcing her to look up at him.
"If you do a big thing, there will be a decisive day. I'll arrange for you and the child, and unless it works, ......"
Chang Runzhi stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, smiled bitterly, and shook his head: "Don't say such unlucky words. ”
Liu Tong stopped talking as he said, and reached out to take Chang Runzhi into his arms.
The two leaned together quietly, and Liu Tong said softly: "The only person who is sorry for making such a decision is you." But the fifth brother really has that heart, it's impossible for me not to help him. “
Liu Tong stroked Chang Runzhi's shoulder.
Chang Runzhi understands that Liu Tong wants to help King Rui, not because he expects that the day when King Rui ascends to the throne, he will be able to be above 10,000 people alone, but just because King Rui is his fifth brother, and he is the "Little Jiu" who has been cared for and protected by King Rui since he was a child.
He was his most beloved and adored brother. (To be continued.) )
