Cai Yu's face turned pale, and his voice suddenly deepened, "Because...... Hewei is not Jingzhou at all. ”

He Qiong nodded, "That's right." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just said that Wei Yinghou Mansion 'fornicated with Qi Guo and colluded with Pei Lu', is it just ......" Cai Yu pursed her lips tightly and couldn't say any more.

"Since ancient times, the most likely thing for the royal power to be overturned is the military power, Pei Lu dared to return to the capital with the little prince with such a swagger, fake the holy decree, and seize the throne, what do you think he relied on? Jingzhou's troops alone are not enough. He Qiong's gaze slowly became distant, with both helplessness and admiration.

"He's stationed troops? In the fiefdom of Wei Yinghou? Cai Yu should actually be surprised, but in fact, he felt ridiculous, sad and ridiculous.

The fief of Wei Yinghoufu, ha!

He Qiong looked at the look on Cai Yu's face, and knew in his heart that he had guessed everything.

When Wei Yinghoufu was promoted from Qingzhi to Prime Minister, he took refuge in Pei Lu and stood on the opposite side of her, whether it was upward or private, the people of Wei Yinghoufu had close contacts with Pei Lu, which was something that all officials knew.

Since Qingzhi wants to assist the crown prince to ascend the throne, it is impossible for her not to pay attention to Wei Yinghoufu's every move, and the matter of garrisoning troops cannot be completed overnight, in other words, Qingzhi knew about Wei Yinghoufu's rebellious tendencies a long time ago.

But she ignored it and was indifferent.

Let it go, this move is too ruthless.

"Shen Qingzhi!" Cai Yu clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and walked directly back to the palace where he was going.

"What are you going to do?" He Qiong was startled and took a step in his direction.

"I'll go find her, you go to Wei Yinghou's Mansion now!"

He Qiong was stunned, then sighed and shook his head, turned around and left.

It is said that a dream of Huangliang will eventually come to naught, but is this "empty" dream still worth changing? Or can it be changed?

He Qiong didn't know, and Cai Yu didn't know either, but Cai Yu wanted to try, because Shen Qingzhi was more kind to him than the mountain.

"You let him go!" Breaking the medicine bowl in my hand, I sat on the bed, looked up at the cold-blooded and ruthless man in front of me hatefully, "He was born and died for you, what is there to be sorry for you?" ”

Cen Xi coldly swept my pale face, turned away with his hand, and no longer looked at me, "He was negligent in his duties and almost caused a catastrophe, and I punished him with three hundred lashes, which was not excessive." ”

"You asked him to block the black-clothed man who was sneaking up, he blocked it, you asked him to send troops to surround Wei Yinghou's mansion, and he also surrounded it, what was there about him who was negligent in his duties? You're just looking for an excuse to kill them all, Cen Xi, don't you also want to be a loner? ”

"Presumptuous!" Cen Xi was really a little angry this time, he turned around and stared at my eyes, "Shen Qingzhi, in your eyes, are they all right, weak, kind, helpless, only I am the one who has no heart, no feelings, and a ruthless heart?" ”

I pursed my lips, avoiding his searing, almost frantic gaze.

"You'd rather stand on the opposite side of me for them, and fight with me with a sense of anger and rage," Cen Xi stepped forward and grabbed my arm hard, "Have you ever taken me to heart?" Have you ever taken yourself to heart? I'm just ...... Does it make you feel like you're hurt? ”

My mind was buzzing, and I barely had the courage to think about what he meant by these words.

In my impression, Cen Xi has always been a cold and resolute person, even if he is smiling at me, it is difficult for me to see the emotion in his eyes, he is restrained, rational, and has excellent ability, even if it is a mountain like a throne, he does not have the slightest look of fear. vp

I have even forgotten that a long, long time ago, under that lonely moonlight, the lake reflected his clear eyes, and crystal tears gradually appeared.

Fragile and helpless, he is not without it.

"I'm not ......" I wanted to grab his hand, but after a few hesitations, I didn't have the courage "The lady who knew the return committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake, I didn't mean to be angry with you, I just ...... He didn't deserve to be punished, he didn't do anything wrong, he was just too sad. ”

"Sad?" Cen Xi sneered and shook off my hand, "As a courtier, because of his 'sadness', he was able to ignore the orders I gave him, and put you in such a dangerous situation?" If you are not here to protect him, how can you be hurt? I'm here to let him protect you, not to get in the way! ”

"But I didn't take a step too late, and Peilu's conspiracy didn't succeed, so you can't look at ......it."

"I can't." Cen Xi glanced at me coldly, flicked his sleeves, and left directly.

I bit my lower lip so hard that my face was gray and black.

Cen Xi, do you understand that a brutal monarch will not win the hearts of the people, no matter what it is for.

Closing my eyes slightly, I lifted the quilt and stepped off the bed.

It's come to this point, he's cut off his back, and I shouldn't be hiding anymore.

Some hatred, some love, should have been broken a long time ago.

"Green Branches, Green Branches!" As soon as I walked outside the hall, I saw Cai Yu running towards me with a worried face from a distance, and my eyes moved, and I paused.

"Qingzhi, you come with me now." Cai Yu came up and grabbed my arm and walked forward quickly.

"What are you doing in such a hurry?" I frowned and stopped to stop him.

Cai Yu seemed to have a lot to say to me, but in the end he just tilted his head slightly, and said to me in a pleading tone, "I know that you hate your father, and you hate your grandmother, and you hate everyone in Wei Yinghou's mansion, but they don't all deserve to die, so you go and beg the prince, so that he can be extrajudicial and benevolent, so as to protect your second brother and third sister." ”

I was stunned for Cai Yu's sudden words, but I just shook off his hand and said with a frosty face, "It's not your business." ”

"Okay, you don't want to save them, you want them all to die in front of you, I don't force you to change your mind." Cai Yu looked into my eyes and knew that he couldn't change what I had decided, he had to compromise with me, but he also had to stick to what he had insisted on.

"But even if you pretend today, you have to beg the prince. Qingzhi, you are the prime minister of Qinguo, and you are the example of hundreds of officials, how many pairs of eyes are staring at you, even if you are for Qinguo, for the prince, and ruthlessly get rid of the Marquis of Wei Ying's mansion, they will also scold you for being unkind, unethical and humane, and in the future history books, this is a stain that you can never erase. ”

"I don't care." I sneered contemptuously, and took two steps forward sideways, "I don't care about this position of prime minister, I don't care about other people's opinions, and as for the comments of future generations, I don't need to care." ”

"Qingzhi, don't be willful at this time." Cai Yu is going crazy.

But I just sighed and shook my head.

"Blood debts and blood are repaid, the way of heaven is not lost, this is what I care about, you don't understand."

Such a deep hatred has long soaked my bone marrow, and every second of my sober consciousness is counting the arrival of this day, how can I still trample my own dignity under my feet, just for a false name?

I don't care about my own life because I care more about it than I do.
