Liao Zhongping looked at Huang Daozhou and Wang Yi coldly, and after a long time, he suddenly raised his left hand, pointed to the fingers that were missing a section of his left hand, and said in a deep voice: "This is what Liao cut down by himself in front of the prince...... From that day on, Liao understood that if the world was still the Zhu family's world, then even if the Northern Expedition was successful, the tragedy of six years ago would still be staged. But Liao, I don't want to see it anymore. ”

Huang Daozhou was stunned.

Wang Yi sighed: "But the prince has no intention of being self-reliant, and no one knows what he wants...... Where will it take the world? Wang didn't want to see the tragedy repeated, but ...... Years of war have reassured people, the people are tired of it, and they need a future they can look forward to. ”

Huang Daozhou said again and again, "The prince does not want to stand on his own, nor does he have a candidate to re-establish himself, so after General Liao forced the palace this time, the consequence is that the clan will use the imperial court to confront the prince's general's mansion...... This is by no means the blessing of the community and the people. ”

Liao Zhongping put down his left hand and said lightly: "Actually, Liao has comprehended something. ”

"Please also ask the general for advice."

"I don't dare to teach." Liao Zhongping said, "From the king of Danyang, the new monarchs of the three dynasties have all become enemies with the prince in the end, do the two prime ministers know why?" ”

"Why?"

"Power!"

“……？” Huang Daozhou and Wang Yi, how could they not know that this is a power struggle, isn't this nonsense?

However, this struggle for power is different from the struggle for power throughout the ages, and it is also different from the struggle between imperial power and relative power...... What the prince wants is a balance between civil power and imperial power...... For example, the life of the king of Qin and the lives of soldiers and people. ”

Huang Daozhou and Wang Yi were stunned, "What does the general mean that the prince wants to cede power to the people?" Can...... But how can this herdsman not make the world chaotic? ”

Liao Zhongping spread his hands, "Unlike the two prime ministers, Liao is just a rough man, and Liao doesn't know what the prince thinks, but Liao feels that the prince's words and deeds are ...... Let Liao not feel aggrieved and comfortable in his heart, and when facing the soldiers, Liao can be calm in his heart, this is enough, isn't it? ”

After speaking, Liao Zhongping turned around and left, leaving Huang Daozhou and Wang Yi looking at each other, and then bowed their heads and thought deeply.

……。

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... You must save Weichen, Weichen is loyal to His Majesty! ”

Ma Jixiang knelt in front of Zhu Lianbi, hugged Zhu Lianbi's thighs with both hands, and burst into tears.

When the news came that the rebels were repelled by the left battalion, Ma Jixiang was only surprised, but unfortunately, he was not panicked.

Because of everything, only the emperor, Zhu Cunji and himself knew the inside story, even if Wu Zheng interrogated all the "chaotic people", he couldn't find out who was the mastermind behind the scenes.

And Zhu Cunji is the king of Qin, even if he is the emperor, he has to think twice.

If this is in the peaceful era, it is really more difficult to move a prince than to ascend to the sky.

Therefore, Ma Jixiang didn't care at all, he decided that Wu Zheng could only kill a few "chaotic people" at most to vent his anger, and the "chaotic people", a few more deaths, what does it have to do with him?

Ma Jixiang even thought that Wu Zheng would not "kill innocents indiscriminately", judging from the words and deeds of Wu Zheng who had been deposed and supported several times before, Ma Jixiang felt that Wu Zheng was "hateful", but in fact he was still merciful in his heart, at least, he had never used a knife against anyone in the clan.

It is this cognition that makes Ma Jixiang feel at ease, even if Zhu Cunji is exposed, according to Wu Zheng's previous practice, at most he will only ban Zhu Cunji, and Zhu Cunji is not a fool, he will never sell himself, right?

As a result, Ma Jixiang was not ready to expose himself at all, and even that night, he was still drinking to drown his sorrows for the failure of the "Wu Movement".

But the sky was slightly bright, and the eyeliner that was released came back to report that Zhu Cunji, the king of Qin, was arrested.

At this time, Ma Jixiang began to be alert, overturned the banquet in front of him, frightened the concubine who accompanied him, and hurriedly entered the palace and came to find a thigh hug.

And at this time, his face was full of tears, it was also a half-truth, it was really because Ma Jixiang was really scared, and the fake was that Ma Jixiang had not really felt the danger, because he had always thought that it was impossible for Wu Zheng to make a move on a prince, so Zhu Cunji would not take the initiative to explain the facts.

The reason why he performed such a play was that Ma Jixiang was shirking the responsibility for the failure of the "Wu Movement", and at the same time he was showing credit to the emperor.

Ma Jixiang can be said to be Chongzhen, Hongguang, Longwu, and Jianxin "veterans of the four dynasties", and all his experience tells him that the baby in front of him is so foolish, he can only act hard, and he will get more rewards.

However, Ma Jixiang obviously thought wrong, and the mistake was so outrageous.

Although Zhu Lianbi is young, she is not a doll after all.

Witnessing the change of the Yixing Dynasty and the Jianxin Dynasty, he witnessed his father being taken away by Zhang Tongchang, and when he came back, he was no longer breathing.

With such an experience, needless to say, Zhu Lianbi is already fifteen years old, even if he is a few years younger, his heart will not be like that of an ordinary child.

"Ma Aiqing, what is this doing...... No matter how big it is, won't I still be the master for you? Zhu Lianbi said with a pleasant face, "Come, get up quickly...... Tell me how bad things are, and I want to get rid of my guilt. ”

Listen, listen, these words are really beautiful, and sure enough, as the courtiers discussed, it is the appearance of a generation of famous kings.

When Ma Jixiang heard this, he was secretly happy, and he praised Zhu Lianbi Shengming with oil, thanked Emperor Longen, and added oil and vinegar to show his merits, and finally said: "Originally, everything went well, but I don't want to be led by Liao Zhongping's thief to ruin Your Majesty's important affairs...... Your Majesty, Liao Zhongping must have already surrendered to Wu Zheng, and he must be a traitor. ”

Zhu Lianbi bowed slightly.

Seeing that the emperor did not object to his statement, Ma Jixiang perked up, lowered his head and continued: "It's just that now the King of Qin has been captured by Wu...... Weichen was afraid that King Qin would spit out the truth and affect His Majesty...... Only then did he hurry into the palace to report. How to deal with it, please ask Your Majesty to show me. ”

A trace of fierceness flashed in Zhu Lianbi's eyes, and his face changed several times, but unfortunately Ma Jixiang didn't see it because he lowered his head.

Soon, Zhu Lianbi's face returned to normal, and he asked calmly, "Why did Aiqing involve King Qin?" And you haven't reported it to me beforehand? ”

These words shocked Ma Jixiang's body, he raised his head solemnly, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he argued urgently: "It's not that Weichen intends to deceive Your Majesty, it's really that there are not many people available under Weichen...... Wei Chen thought that the clan relatives had always been at odds with Wu, so as long as the clan relatives intervened in this matter, once the clan in the capital joined forces, the big thing could be ....... ”

As soon as these words came out, Rao is Zhu Lianbi was a little scheming, and his face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "So, you let this matter involve the entire clan?" ”
