Chapter 376: Temptation

Liu Ce was a little frightened by Gu Zhixing's eyes, shrunk his neck timidly, and said softly: "The prince will definitely find out the real murderer as soon as possible, some little thieves, they dare to attack the prince, it is really audacious, if the prince needs to be contributed, you must not be polite, and the people in my house can also lend it to the prince." ”

Gu Zhixing glanced at Liu Ce deeply, and his expression was very cold: "No need, this king already has a little clue, and I believe that he will soon be able to bring that bold thief to justice." ”

Liu Ce's heart suddenly lifted, and in a trance, there was an illusion that Gu Zhixing deliberately said it to him, and the other party's gloomy gaze fell on him, making him feel like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake, and the hairs on his back stood up.

He was so nervous that he didn't know how to deal with it, but Gu Zhao took the initiative to put down the book and relieve him: "Since Uncle Huang has clues, then I won't interfere in this matter, what does Uncle Huang think?" ”

When Liu Ce was there, Gu Zhao and Gu Zhixing had a very tacit understanding and wanted to show that they had a bad relationship.

Therefore, when Liu Ce heard this, he decided that Gu Zhao didn't even care about Gu Zhixing's assassination, and obviously wanted someone to help him get rid of this arbitrary regent.

This kind of thought made Liu Ce's little weakness rise just now because of Gu Zhixing's suspicion disappeared in an instant.

The expression on Gu Zhixing's face was very indifferent, and he followed Gu Zhao's words: "This king thinks that there is nothing wrong with the emperor's arrangement, it should indeed be so, this is this king's private matter, so I won't waste Your Majesty's time." ”

Gu Zhao nodded, seemingly very satisfied with Gu Zhixing's sensibility, and took the initiative to ask about what he learned: "But I heard that the imperial uncle will be assassinated because of the academy's acceptance of the prince, but is there such a thing?" ”

The thing he cared about the most was mentioned, and Liu Ce instantly came to his senses.

Gu Zhixing almost didn't hesitate, and flatly denied it: "There is absolutely no such thing, this king is really chasing down some clues and being hunted down, the purpose of the assassin should be that he doesn't want this king to continue to investigate, as for the reason Your Majesty just said, it is completely out of nowhere, at least this king has not heard the assassin say such a thing." ”

Gu Zhao didn't know if he believed it, he squinted his eyes and nodded slightly, his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about the credibility of Gu Zhixing's words.

Liu Ce couldn't bear it anymore, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, Lord Wang, this matter is very important, but you must find it out, if it is really because of the things of the academy, then the arrangement of the car in the academy is very unreasonable, and it is unacceptable to everyone, so it will cause public anger, this is a problem that needs to be taken seriously." ”

Liu Ce was the representative of the courtiers who opposed letting the prince of his country come to the academy.

In fact, he couldn't say what was wrong with this policy, he just subconsciously didn't want to be in the same camp as Gu Zhixing, so as long as Gu Zhixing proposed it, he would oppose it.

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly, a little unhappy: "Is the prime minister questioning me?" When Uncle Huang made this suggestion, he asked for my opinion, and I also seriously considered it, and felt that it was feasible, so I carried it out, and now the prime minister thinks we are all wrong? ”

Liu Ce's face froze, and he didn't expect Gu Zhao to show displeasure so directly.

He thought about it carefully, and couldn't figure out if Gu Zhao was really brainwashed by Su Mian's woman.

He stiffened his face and smiled, and his tone was accustomed to flattering: "The emperor misunderstood, the lower official didn't mean this, but the outside voice really disagreed with this matter, and the lower official also wanted the emperor to understand the voice of the people most effectively, if too many people oppose it, but the court still insists on implementing it, it will lose the support of the people." ”

Gu Zhao and Gu Zhixing naturally understood this truth.

Gu Zhao's eyes sank, and his face was calm: "Who can say clearly what will happen in the future?" Maybe after a while, the people will realize that this policy is good, and there is nothing wrong with letting the prince of his country come to Xisheng, others will not only come to learn the things of Xisheng, but also bring their culture, this is a mutually beneficial process, isn't it? Such a simple truth, the prime minister won't have been trying to figure it out, right? ”

This is a bit of a question about Liu Ce's ability.

Liu Ce's face changed slightly.

Although he had long known that Gu Zhao would agree to this proposal, after experiencing Gu Zhixing's incident, they still chose to deceive themselves, so he had to re-examine this issue.

Gu Zhixing raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Ce, and followed Gu Zhao's words and asked, "How can the prime minister be so sure that the academy's recruitment of the prince will only bring distrust and loss of the people's hearts?" Could it be that the prime minister will not know the prophet? ”

Liu Ce suddenly realized that he had indeed lost his words just now, and he quickly vetoed: "Of course Xia Guan doesn't have this ability, it's just that everything likes to plan in the worst direction, so that measures to solve sudden problems can be arranged in advance, Xia Guan is not as good as His Majesty and the prince, it's not that he is not optimistic about the princess's ability, it's not that he doesn't believe in the prediction of the emperor and the prince, he just thinks that nothing is foolproof?" "Qiandu Chinese Network

Liu Ce's mouth, when he seriously wanted to explain, no one could find any flaws.

Gu Zhao smiled with satisfaction: "The prime minister can think about the future of Xisheng, I am naturally happy in my heart, but the matter of the academy is a foregone conclusion, so the prime minister should not go too far, just sit back and wait for the result." ”

Liu Ce frowned slightly, a little uncontrollable, and unwilling, and asked, "Is there really no room for me to turn around in this matter?" Your Majesty, otherwise, it is still a bad comment on the real reason for the assassination of the regent, and after finding out whether he was implicated by the academy, he will continue to implement it, otherwise the prince will be too dangerous. ”

He took great pains to plan such a play, didn't he just wait for the plan to be put on hold?

But why didn't Gu Zhao really care at all?

Gu Zhao's expression was calm, and when he heard this, he stared at Liu Ce with deep suspicion, and asked loudly: "What is there to check about this, Uncle Huang has already said just now, this matter is his personal grudge, why does the prime minister have to pull it all the way to the academy?" Do you really want this to have something to do with the college? If that's the case, I'll have to wonder what your intentions are. ”

Gu Zhao's denial and suspicion of him is not the first time.

Liu Ce's heart slowly sank, his breathing became short, and it took a long time to explain in a trembling voice: "The emperor's words are serious, how dare the lower officials have such thoughts, but they have always felt that it is too hasty to accept the prince's proposal through the academy?" The emperor should have consulted with the ministers more. ”

"What's the use of discussing?" Gu Zhao was already a little impatient, and his voice was obviously cold, "I know that most people won't agree. I will definitely be entangled in this matter for a long time, so why waste time with you? ”

Gu Zhao was suddenly so unreasonable, as if he was about to vent all the anger accumulated in his heart, Liu Ce didn't know what to say.

Gu Zhao didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "Does the prime minister think that I can't even make decisions about a small academy? Then what does the emperor mean, if I don't let it be given to you. ”

"The emperor is angry." This is really serious, Liu Ce knelt down at once, his face was pale, "It's that the lower officials are not thoughtful, the emperor must not be angry, the lower officials just think that although the emperor is the son of heaven, he should also listen to the opinions of the courtiers, after all, it is too arbitrary, and after a long time, everyone will inevitably have opinions in their hearts." ”

In order to better present himself, what he really looks like is for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji?

Even if he was scared to death in his heart, afraid that Gu Zhao would suddenly get angry and take off his black gauze hat, Liu Ce still chose to say so.

Gu Zhao was really a little unappreciative, "Thank you Prime Minister for reminding me, I know what to expect." ”

He had a cold face and a very ugly expression, and he interpreted the impression of a little emperor who was temperamental, did not listen to the advice of his courtiers, and acted arbitrarily.

At this point, Liu Ce knew very well that it was useless to say anything, he could only follow Gu Zhao's words to appease his emotions: "Please forgive the emperor for his mistakes, the minister is really worried about the emperor, afraid that after the emperor has done so many things to benefit the people, he will not be understood, so he is in a hurry." ”

Gu Zhao nodded clearly, and knew that he couldn't completely disappreciate it, and he still had to give Liu Ce a little face.

So he quickly relaxed his expression and waved his hand to Liu Ce: "I have received the Prime Minister's hard work, okay, hurry up, I still have one more thing to grow." ”

At this moment, he ordered Liu Ce to be given a task, so that Liu Ce could be appeased, so that he would not think that Gu Zhao was starting to distrust him because of what he was angry about just now.

Liu Ce naturally thought the same way, and his expression became happy at the moment, and he said excitedly: "If the emperor has any orders, as long as the lower officials can do it well, they will definitely go to the soup and fight the fire." ”

"It's not that far, but it's a big deal." Gu Zhao smiled softly, and his tone was steady, "That's the case, the county lord of Mengke is about to enter the capital, and the concubine means that she wants her to live in the palace directly, but I think this is too reckless, so I want to arrange people in the post house first, and then canonize them as concubines on an auspicious day, and then bring people in, which can be regarded as justifiable." ”

Although Gu Zhao didn't like this county lord very much, there were still etiquette rules that couldn't be slowed.

And there is another very important reason, which is that Gu Zhao wants to delay meeting with this county lord through this way.

After all, to become a husband and wife directly with a person he has never seen, who he doesn't know at all, and who has even heard of it very few times, to get along with each other day and night, and cultivate feelings, when he thinks of these things, Gu Zhao's scalp is numb, and his whole body is full of resistance.

Therefore, it is a day to be able to delay it, and when you enter the palace and have to go to see it, you will continue to think of a way.
