Chapter 653: Balance

Zhu Qingshen carefully selected two targets, and Emperor Shang was very satisfied. He wanted to attack his neighbors, and immediately his courtiers gave him reasons and weapons, and there was nothing more intimate than this.

Compared to the rebel who will only disobey himself, I don't know how many times better!

Thinking of the crown prince, Emperor Shang's heart became very unhappy, and his face became ugly.

Zhu Qingshen looked at His Majesty's expression suddenly became gloomy, and his heart suddenly sank to the bottom, not knowing what he had done wrong, and he couldn't help but feel worried.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with the minister's analysis?" Zhu Qingshen asked cautiously.

Emperor Shang waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to think about it.

Zhu Qingshen temporarily calmed down.

The matter of the Tiger Guard Prison passed for the time being, and Emperor Shang asked about the progress of the investigation into the madness of the beasts in the Land of Trials.

Zhu Qingshen's face was extremely bitter, and he confessed aggrievedly: "Back to Your Majesty, we have been busy investigating this matter recently, and the progress on the side of the trial land has been delayed a lot, and there is no new progress for the time being. ”

At this time, the benefits of patting His Majesty's ass are revealed.

Because he was satisfied with the results of the previous investigation, this time, although the progress of Huwei's investigation into the problem of the ferocious beast was delayed, Emperor Shang understood this, held it up and took it lightly, just verbally put some pressure on Zhu Qingshen, and then let go of the matter.

Zhu Qingshen thought about it, although His Majesty let go of this matter this time, it does not mean that this matter is over. Especially in the last three years, Eagle Guard has the best life, Zhu Qingshen can't stand it, and wants to find something to do for Eagle Guard.

Zhu Qingshen took the initiative to talk about the investigation mission of the ferocious beast.

"Your Majesty, although the progress of our investigation is not satisfactory, we have made some progress. We still ask Your Majesty to allow us to enter the mysterious space to investigate. We have always suspected that the ferocious beast madness has a lot to do with the appearance of mysterious space. In order to thoroughly investigate the problem of the ferocious beast's madness, the mysterious space must investigate for ourselves to find out the cause. ”

Zhu Qingshen's face was full of righteousness, and he looked frank, as if he was really just talking about the madness of the beast.

Emperor Shang smiled at Zhu Qingshen, where could he not know what he was thinking? This is to see that Eagle Guard's investigation of the mysterious space is going well, and he feels that it is very profitable, so he wants to meddle in Eagle Guard's affairs and get a piece of the pie.

Emperor Shang didn't care about his careful thoughts, who of his subordinates could profit and who would suffer, as long as he held a scale in his heart, it was good not to favor one side too much, the situation was still stable, as for the struggle for power and profit, Emperor Shang even encouraged them to do so.

However, Eagle Guard is doing a good job, and at the same time, Tiger Guard needs to work harder, so he decided to calm the current situation for the time being.

"Do you Tiger Guards have enough manpower?" asked Emperor Shang slowly.

This question hit Zhu Qingshen's sore spot.

Previously, when investigating the mysterious disappearance, Huwei also lost some people, compared to Long Xiang Yutian may be better, but Huwei originally took the route of elite soldiers, and there were not many people, at this time, they had to investigate the two things of the fierce beast madness and the big havoc in the guard, their manpower was already stretched, if they forcibly divided a part of the manpower to participate in the investigation of the mysterious space, it is conceivable that any of the three aspects will not be pleased.

Zhu Qingshen was about to cry. classic

"Your Majesty, Huwei has suffered heavy losses this time, you can add some manpower to us!" Zhu Qingshen cried when he saw milk, and seized the opportunity, he could take a mouthful.

As long as you don't meddle in the affairs of the mysterious space, it's not impossible to add some manpower to the Tiger Guard.

"When the matter is almost dealt with recently, I will give you time to select people in the army!" Emperor Shang generously promised.

Zhu Qingshen kowtowed with joy on his face and thanked him, but he pouted in his heart.

Your Majesty still doesn't want them to participate in the affairs of the mysterious space, and by the time the matter is almost dealt with, the Eagle Guard should have been able to run the mysterious space into his own back garden!

Zhu Qingshen was unwilling, but he had no choice but to kneel down and leave the New Year's Palace.

Zhu Qingshen left the New Year's Palace half happy and half worried, and when his figure disappeared, Emperor Shang beckoned, and from behind the screen, a person walked out.

It is Zhu Qingshen's sworn enemy, Nie Jinglong, the current head of the mysterious space and the leader of the Eagle Guard, who racked his brains to intervene.

"Your Majesty!" Nie Jinglong bowed and saluted, greeting respectfully.

"You heard our conversation in there just now?" Emperor Shang picked up the brush on the long table and began to correct the recital.

"Please forgive Your Majesty, the minister did not mean to eavesdrop on the conversation between His Majesty and Zhu Qingshen. Nie Jinglong cautiously pleaded guilty.

Emperor Shang waved his left hand and said casually: "I asked you to hide behind the screen, and you didn't do it on purpose, what are you guilty of?"

Nie Jinglong didn't get up in a hurry, but continued: "Your Majesty and Leader Zhu were talking about military plans, and the minister overheard it, and he was extremely frightened. ”

Emperor Shang looked up at Nie Jinglong, Nie Jinglong lowered his head and did not dare to look at each other, silently waiting for Emperor Shang to deal with it.

Emperor Shang adjusted a comfortable posture to sit, he looked at Nie Jinglong and said, "Relax, what was in front of me before, and what will be like in the future, I will not ignore the merits of you ministers because of some trivial things." ”

At this time, Nie Jinglong's heart was a little calmer.

Zhu Qingshen is here to ask for sin, why not Nie Jinglong?

In the palace before, because of the misjudgment, he and Xia Yi were relatively close, because he wanted to take a stable path, not only to follow His Majesty's path, but also to get involved with the popular Princess Shanyang, no matter what happens in the future, there will always be a backer.

As a result, he soon discovered that His Majesty didn't like Xia Yi, it was really to the bones, and he didn't even bother to look at Xia Yi, which made Nie Jinglong feel deeply frightened, and immediately broke off his thoughts and returned to His Majesty's side.

In the past two days, under the pretext of reporting the progress of the investigation, he entered the palace every day to communicate with His Majesty, which is to show with practical actions that he is still a loyal dog of His Majesty.

This is also the reason why Nie Jinglong has always been cautious just now. But fortunately, the result was good, and His Majesty was finally willing to express his attitude, which made Nie Jinglong's heart return to his stomach.

"Today, what progress has you made in your investigation? After all these days, you haven't made any major discoveries?" Emperor Shang lowered his head again and corrected the recital, and asked about the things in the mysterious space again.
