After the meeting dispersed, Song Ji walked quickly back to the imperial study, not saying a word along the way.

Guan Hongye and Cui Huailu followed behind, both knowing what Song Ji was thinking.

Xu Buling is in control of the military power, and the fourth queen of Ping has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hands, even if Xu Buling has no dissent, such a big tiger, what can he give to him so that Xu Buling can honestly relieve the military power and return to Xiliang to eat sand?

If Xu Buling took the military power and stayed in Guanzhong and didn't leave, wouldn't Chang'an become a little girl with a jade body between the father and son of the Xu family?

This military power will definitely not dare to give Xu no order, but there is no reason not to give it; Xu Buling has won many battles, Guan Hongye has not made an inch, so he can't say bluntly that Xu Buling may rebel and forcibly suppress it, right?

What is currently in front of us is a dead end.

As long as Song Ji suspects Xu Buling, he doesn't dare to give military power, but he doesn't suspect Xu Buling, then he is still called an emperor?

The three of them came to the imperial study, and Guan Hongzhuo took the lead in speaking:

"Holy Lord, this military power cannot be given to Xu Buling, if Xu Buling is in command, a rebellion will be put down, and at least three or four hundred thousand soldiers and horses will be under his hands; At the current rate, the situation in northern Xinjiang may not be able to turn around after the counterinsurgency is over, and the Guanzhong army will not be able to return, and Guanzhong will become an empty city......"

Cui Huailu thought for a while: "If you don't let the counterinsurgency end, and the northern Xinjiang is undecided, let him lead his troops directly to the north, will it work?" ”

When Guan Hongzhuo heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, but he immediately shook his head:

"I just listened to the battle report in the army, there seems to be a big killing weapon in the Xiliang army, which can destroy the city and shake the mountain, and the walls of Xiangyang are like paper paste. If the fourth queen of Ping is not allowed to lead the soldiers to destroy the Northern Qi again, wouldn't it be ......"

I didn't dare to say the latter words, but the meaning was very clear.

Xu Buling led the troops to destroy the four kings first, and then pacified the Northern Qi, directly ruled the world, and finished everything that Xu Lie did not do; The soldiers are strong, the merits are high, and there is such a meritorious service, so who should have the final say in this world?

Song Ji said that I have the final say, Xu Buling said that you are the oldest, what can Song Ji do?

When the time comes, what Xu Buling wants to do with the Song family depends on Xu Buling's conscience; Those who can be emperors are all lonely people, and it is impossible to have a conscience if they have everything, even if they don't have a conscience, the hundreds of thousands of people who are fighting with them can agree?

Although Song Ji wanted to destroy the Northern Qi Dynasty, he obviously didn't want the Xu family to help him achieve the achievement of this emperor through the ages.

The two argued for a moment before Song Ji raised his hand and said softly:

"Xu Buling broke Xiangyang, and it is impossible not to give military power; To ask clearly, how did Xiangyang break, especially the weapons used by Xu Buling to break the city, let Guan Hongye take the holy decree to ask clearly. ”

Guan Hongye nodded slightly, feeling that this was the most important place.

Xu Bu ordered the city to be broken so quickly, obviously he had some kind of magic weapon, and he regarded the city wall as if it were nothing; If only the Xiliang army has it, but the imperial court does not, it is equivalent to hanging the sword over the imperial court's head, and this matter must be investigated.

Guan Hongye and Cui Huailu also knew that it was useless to talk more, and after chatting a few words, they turned around and left the imperial study.

————

After the two left, the imperial study fell silent, except for a little incense and the chirping of cicadas in the distance.

Song Ji's calm face was gradually depressed at this time; Like a wrestler carrying a tower on his shoulders, he held on to prevent it from falling, but the tower was too high, the foundation was full of holes, and there were countless invisible hands pushing and shaking on it, even if he tried his best, the tower was still tilting and falling in the direction he didn't want to see.

After sitting alone in the imperial study for an unknown amount of time, Song Jiqiang took a breath, suppressed the headache in his head, stood up, walked to the portrait by the wall, and lit three sticks of incense as in the past.

Looking at the portrait of the woman on the wall, Song Ji wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.

Emperors are all lonely, standing at the top of the world, all the emotions in their hearts should not be known to the people below, ruthless and unrighteous, no relatives and friends, no worries, and not influenced by personal emotions, in order to be a good emperor.

But the emperor is just a person who stands taller than ordinary people, and when he is full of sorrow, why don't he want to find a trustworthy person to talk to; Even if that person doesn't understand anything and can't give useful advice, as long as he talks about his heart, the other party can listen and have more comfort in his heart.

Song Ji stood in front of the portrait for a moment, and before he could sort out his thoughts, the little eunuch suddenly appeared in the door, bowed down and said:

"Holy Lord, Lao Yi is back."

Song Ji's eyelids jumped slightly, and the hand behind his back tightened a little.

When Lao Yi comes back, he can only bring two pieces of news - either Cui Xiaowan is dead, or Cui Xiaowan is gone.

If he died, it might make Song's 🐔 sorrow worse, but that's all; If Cui Xiaowan is gone, it represents the betrayal of the Cui family, and at this stormy moment, it can only be said to be bad news.

Song Ji took a breath, turned around and returned to the desk, his face calm:

"Come in."

Lao Yi, who was waiting outside the imperial study, lowered his head and entered the imperial study when he heard the sound, his face was stiff, and some of the few dared not come forward.

Song Ji's face was not shocked, but he felt a chill in his heart. He tapped his fingers on the table and said flatly:

"Say it."

Lao Yi swallowed his saliva, struggled for a long time, and still took a step forward:

"I went to the Peach Blossom Sea in Youzhou, and there is no Queen Cui in the canyon, looking at the surrounding environment, I'm afraid I've been walking for half a year...... When he came out, he encountered a wave of intercepted assassins who tried to intercept and kill the lowly position, but was killed by the lowly position; I asked one of them, and I learned that it was someone from the Cui family......"

Song Ji's action of tapping on the table stopped, his eyes were obviously a little sunk, but compared with the anger in it, it was more helplessness when the building was about to collapse.

Dayue's five major valves, the Xiao family and the Xu family married, the Lu family and the Xu family became friends, and Song Ji couldn't believe it anymore; The remaining three 'Cui Wang Li' families, the Li family and Song Ji's political disagreement on 'emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts' have never been close or far away, and the only ones who can be trusted are the 'Cui Wang' two families.

The Cui family and the Wang family are in-laws, and Cui Xiaowan is the daughter born from the marriage of the two families.

Now that Cui Xiaowan is gone, the Cui family also ambushed the secret guards who investigated in the past, and they must have wanted to hide something.

No matter what you want to hide, it shows that the Cui family and Song Ji are not of the same mind.

The wall fell down, everyone pushed it, and the drum broke and ten thousand people beat it.

Behind the five major valves is the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are not on the emperor's side, so is the emperor still called the emperor? Is it possible to use the secret guards outside to rule the world?

"The rebellion and the separation...... The first emperor is right, the gate valve meritorious home is a group of white-eyed wolves, nodding and bowing when they have meat, and when they don't have meat, they will eat people when they turn around......"

Song Ji sat in the imperial study, looked at the Taiji Hall in the distance, and sighed softly.

Lao Yi lowered his head and looked tense. Song Ji has been on the throne for so many years, and it is the first time he has heard Song Ji say such meaningless complaints, which shows how depressed the emperor's inner emotions have been.

But as a loyal servant, there are some things that cannot be left unreported.

Lao Yi hesitated for a long time, but still took out the painting scroll from behind his waist, stepped forward and put it on the imperial table, and said in a deep voice:

"In the hermitage of Empress Cui, I found this painting, which ...... There is a place for Empress Cui to go......"

When Song Ji heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he also hoped that there was something else hidden. After all, he knows Xiaowan's temper, has no quarrel with the world, and is not interested in anyone except flowers and poetry, including him, the emperor of the world.

Maybe Xiaowan was just tired of staying in the mountains and lived in a different place, and the Cui family only found that someone had broken in, and they were afraid that the news would leak, so they sent someone to intercept and kill them......

Thinking of this, Song Ji raised his hand and picked up the scroll and gently unfolded it.

As soon as the scroll was opened, the man's hair crown and the micro end of the long lance appeared, and the entire imperial study was obviously depressed.

Click-

The fingers were so hard that they punctured the paper of the scroll.

The faint sound of breathing fluctuated in the imperial study, and every breath made Lao Yi and the secret guard outside silent him.

Sweat appeared on Lao Yi's forehead, but he didn't dare to raise his head to see Song Ji's face.

Song Ji's expression was still calm, but there was a slight bloodshot in his deep eyes, and the paper of the picture scroll trembled imperceptibly.

Rustle Rustle –

After a long time, the scroll slowly unfolded.

The picture of the man standing at the top of the Taiji Hall appeared in front of him.

The scene is very familiar, because Song Ji is also a member of the crowd of beings under the Taiji Palace, it is impossible not to know him.

"I am willing to be a concubine in Ling Lang's arms, not a concubine in front of the emperor's palace......"

Song Ji's voice was low, and he slowly read out which line of small characters under the scroll.

It's been a long time since I've seen this handwriting, but I can still vaguely recognize whose handwriting it is.

This line of handwriting, like the last straw, pressed on the shoulders of the wrestlers who carried the whole world alone and had difficulty taking half a step forward.

Lao Yi's body was tense and his martial arts were strong, and he could hear Song Ji's disordered breathing and violent heartbeat, and he spoke softly:

"The Holy One is angry, this matter ...... This matter will be arranged......"

Song Ji stiffened his face and didn't make any expression. I closed the scroll and put it at my hand, and after a long time, I said word by word:

"The Xu family will be opposed. It's okay, I don't have to worry about guessing; Convey a secret decree to Wang Chenghai, the governor of the Western Liaoxi Metropolitan Protectorate, if there is a change in the pass, there is no need to listen to the court's order, and abandon Youzhou to protect the three kings in the east. sent Wang Chenghai's family out of Chang'an overnight to avoid his worries. ”

Lao Yi shook slightly, and his body bowed lower: "The saint is preparing ......"

"Go down and give orders. As long as Empress Cui lives, Xu Buling can use it as evidence to expose the matter of Suolong Gu and Song Yu, she can kill and kill, but she can't kill it. ”

"......, No......"

After Lao Yi responded softly, he walked out quickly......
