Bai Liyan knew very well at this time that King Xian had the idea of deposing Xihuan, but with the current situation and the temperament of the King of Jin, once he openly deposed the status of the crown princess of Xihuan, with the shamelessness of the Jin State and the temperament of the monarchs and ministers of the Jin State, he would inevitably use this excuse to besiege Chenling.

Even if the Jin State has to pay a tragic price, even if the Xian army wins the most victory, or even expells the Jin State from the Xian State, the national strength, military strength, and financial resources of the Xian State will be greatly damaged, which is not in line with the current national policy and the interests that will be in hand. In the long run, now is not the best time to depose Xihuan.

King Xian took this opportunity to ask the prince, obviously to force the prince to admit that it was caused by his ignorance and indulgence in the collusion between Xihuan and the outside world, so that he could logically propose to depose Xihuan and leave the prince with nothing to say.

Gao Xun and Bailiyan took turns to advise, which made King Xian extremely unhappy, and Jiang Hai thought that at least Bailiyan should agree.

At this time, the atmosphere was silent, the prince was already colorless, only standing in horror, King Xian still did not intend to compromise, and was about to ask again, Jiao Muhua outside the palace came to report:

"King Qiqi, the crown princess has arrived outside the palace."

King Xian finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and said angrily:

"What is she going to do, do you have to be angry and widowed to be happy!"

Jiao Muhua was shocked and hurriedly said:

"Back to the king, the crown princess is here to ask for sin."

"Please!" King Xian was surprised, and immediately looked at Bailiyan: "Aiqing, what does the crown princess mean by this?" ”

Bai Liyan suddenly understood at this time that most of the time Xihuan felt that the situation was unfavorable to her, and in the name of asking for guilt, she retreated as an advance, first kept the position of the crown princess, and then made a plan.

According to Bailiyan's original intention, he could use this to pretend to propose to depose Xihuan, extinguish his arrogance, and make it no longer rampant in the future.

But the problem is that the prince and Xihuan are husband and wife, it doesn't matter if you offend Xihuan, it's a big problem to offend the prince.

Jiang Zhen is of course an embroidered pillow, but he has a very deep relationship with Xihuan, and Bai Liyan even believes that under Xihuan's clever words, Jiang Zhen can throw today's things out of the clouds.

If you want to abolish the ginger sting in the future, this matter will be easy to do. However, Bailiyan had no intention of overthrowing Jiang Zhen, so if Jiang Yan hated himself because of this, it would not be beneficial in the future.

After all, behind Jiang Yu is Xihuan, Xihuan represents the interests of the Jin State, and in the future, Jiang Yu ascends the throne, and can still continue to maintain relations with the Jin State and the Changsun State in the name of Xihuan, once the Gongliang clan rebels in the Zhiguo, the Xian State relies on the relationship between the Jin State and the Changsun State to remain neutral, and at the same time maintains an ambiguous relationship with the Gongliang clan, and the Zhiguo is helpless.

If the crown prince is removed and Xihuan is deposed, not only will he fall into the trap of Zhiguo, but he may also fall under the siege of Zhiguo, Jin, and Changsun. Jiang Can is in Bailiyan's eyes, but it is just a backup plan after the value of Xihuan is exhausted in the future.

If Xihuan knows each other, after defeating the Jin Kingdom, after his death, it is not impossible to assist his eldest son to ascend the throne. If you don't know each other, it is logical to abolish Jiang Can's vein and help Jiang Can ascend the throne and become king.

However, the abolition of the monarch will inevitably involve the tolerance of the state system and the emotional ties between the monarch and the auxiliary ministers, and even if you have a thousand reasons for the interests of the country, the abolition of the monarch is always a feared political act, and it is absolutely impossible to depose it lightly unless it is a last resort.

Now King Xian wants to use Ding Yang Hou to offend some local elite groups, and also use Baili Yan to depose the prince and Xihuan, which is equivalent to King Xian only using two people as scapegoats, and all future crimes are borne by Baili Yan and Ding Yang Hou.

Even one day when Jiang Can is the king, the first thing to kill is the head of his Baili Yan, and by that time, Xianguo will have everything he should have, and it doesn't matter whether he Baili Yan lives or dies.

The more you think about it, the more certain this result is, this is an obvious imperial trick. But Bai Liyan didn't think that King Xian could have such a mental skill, there must be something wrong that caused King Xian to have such a major change in temperament.

At this moment, the crown prince Jiang Yu seems to be the only weight that can balance the Xian King, if the crown prince Jiang Yu falls, then Bai Liyan has the merit of supporting the new prince, and will also become a powerful minister who overthrows the prince, and will be feared by the new prince in the future, and will be feared by the new prince's heirs, and this is not the result that Bai Liyan wants to see.

Thinking of this, Bai Liyan thought quickly, and then he suddenly felt that Prince Bao had become so important that he had to carefully weigh the current and future interests.

After some in-depth deliberation, he said carefully:

"The king, the minister thinks that the king of Jin has not yet withdrawn from the army, and there is still the possibility of taking risks to save face, so the princess can repent and ask the king for guilt, and use this to show the king of Jin that our country is willing to rebuild the sincerity of the old good, so it is both polite and modest, and it is also conducive to the overall situation of Xianguo, and the minister thinks that the princess is guilty of herself, which is beneficial to the current situation."

"Really!" King Xian was unhappy, obviously dissatisfied with Bai Liyan's reply, so he asked Gao Xun again: "Gao Ai, do you think so too?" ”

"Back to the king, the minister thinks that the overall situation should be the priority, at least the king of Jin should be allowed to retreat, otherwise the stalemate continues, and today's victory may not be said to be the king's victory."

Gao Xun's words were ambiguous, and he seemed to agree with Bailiyan's measures, but in fact, the prince, King Jin, Xihuan, and Bailiyan all seemed to be standing on their side, and no one could be offended.

King Xian was silent for a moment, looking back and forth at the prince and the others, and his heart was hard to decide.

He also knew that after today, there would be no chance to depose Xihuan. But compared to being a politician, Xianwang is a qualified or even excellent parent, but he is by no means a qualified politician. After hesitating, he was really worried that the king of Jin would turn his face again and let the existing achievements go to waste, so he tended to consolidate the victory that had already been achieved.

"That's it, let the crown princess enter the palace."

"No!"

Jiao Muhua was ordered to leave, and when he was young, Xihuan entered the palace, and his eyes were red from crying, and he looked heartbroken, and when he saw King Xian, he knelt in front of him with a big salute:

"Father, Xihuan is guilty, please ask your father to punish him."

King Xian did not accept this kneeling feeling, and said with a cold face:

"King Jin is so majestic, what a crime the crown princess has."

"Father......" Xihuan wept bitterly and sobbed silently, whimpering and continuing: "I just learned that Brother Wang colluded with the eldest grandson to plot Yongxing, and I was terrified, Xihuan knew that this was an unjust move by Brother Wang for the interests of his father, which caused the alliance between the two countries to be better than a catastrophe, and he was deeply guilty of falling into the relationship between Xihuan's brothers and sisters and his father's family. ”

"Humph! You have deceived the widow too much, and now you see that the conspiracy is exposed, and you are pretentious here to win the mercy of the world, do you really think that the widow does not know? ”

"Father, Xihuan didn't know anything about the prince's brother in advance, and asked his father to calm his anger, Xihuan was willing to accept it for the king's brother, please ask my father for the sake of Tuo'er and Ping'er, don't be angry with the prince......"

To say that the most powerful thing about Xihuan is not his tears, but his flesh and blood. The implication is not only flesh and blood, but also a threat, if King Xian is forced too hard, Xihuan can really escape back to the Jin Kingdom with his two children, and fight back in the future.

At the same time, the sentence "Don't be angry with the prince", it seems to be taking the blame for the prince, but in fact, he clearly pasted gold on his face, and secretly the prince and Xihuan were in the same bed, Jiang Zhen understood and immediately knelt down in front of King Xian to excuse Xihuan:

"Father, the supervision of the sons and daughters is not strict, if Xihuan is guilty, the father and the king will punish the sons and ministers for the sake of raising Tuo'er and Ping'er in Xihuan."

"No, the prince is not guilty, it's all Xihuan's fault......"

Xihuan's sincere words were convincing, as if he suddenly woke up and felt painful, and even thought of Jiang Tuo and Jiang Ping's two sons being young, which made people unbearable to depose them.

At this time, Bai Liyan and Gao Xun were expressionless and silent, and Ding Yanghou and Li Xu lowered their heads and turned their eyes down, to say that the plot is somewhat true and somewhat false, after all, it is the family of the royal family, and it is difficult for outsiders to know.

King Xian's chest was rising and falling with anger at the moment, he was angry, angry that he was soft-hearted, and when he thought of his two grandsons, he couldn't bear to start. Hanging his arms and clenching his fists, King Xian gritted his teeth, and his eyes fell on Bai Liyan:

"Yongxing Hou, what does Aiqing think about this matter."

Before the words fell, Xihuan looked at Bailiyan, in the eyes of others, his tender eyes in the flashes of tears were pitiful, but in Bailiyan's view, the cruelty and cruelty reflected in his heart continued unabated. As if to warn him: "If you speak disrespectfully, I will want you to die a good death......"

At this time, King Xian kicked the ball to Bailiyan, undoubtedly asking him to do this difficult thing, Bailiyan didn't know, King Xian didn't want to tear up the relationship between his father and son and his ancestors, and wanted to depose Xihuan, but this pot wanted him to carry it, but this matter obviously couldn't be said clearly among the monarchs and ministers.

After a little thought, he had to be careful to say:

"The king, this is a family affair of the king, and it is difficult for the ministers to judge. However, Gongzi Tuo and Gongzi Ping are still young, and they are guarded by the Jin general Ji Jinsheng, and the army of the King of Jin is outside the city, which is not good for the country, so please be cautious. ”

"Be cautious, how to be cautious if the Marquis of Yongxing wants to be widowed!" King Xian said dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, everything should still focus on the overall situation and the long-term interests of the Xian country. Although the Jin State is shameless and treacherous, it is a strong neighbor of our country, although the Zhiguo is friendly with our country, it is difficult to measure its sincerity, and the mountains and rivers of the Xian and Jin countries are connected to each other, although there are suspicions, but it is not a loss to rely on. Now that the ambitions of the King of Jin have been thwarted by us, presumably his wolf ambitions must be reined in, and it may be the time to rebuild the alliance between the two countries. ”

"Humph!" King Xian's anger jumped on his face, and his fierce gaze pointed directly at Bailiyan: "Yongxing Hou, this is your true words!" ”

"Back to the king, for the long-term interests of our country, it is the minister's heartfelt words."

"Well, this widow is not to blame. The crown princess, tell the king of Jin for the widow, and if there is a heart of arrogance in the future, the widow will be severely punished! ”

Seeing King Xian's mouth relaxed, Xihuan's tears were even worse:

"My father is forgiving and kind, Xihuan remembers it in his heart, and he is grateful."

Although he was grateful, Xihuan had already killed Bailiyan and King Xian thousands of times in his heart, and the prince was as grateful as an echo worm at this time:

"The son thanked his father for his innocence......"

King Xian looked down at his crown prince, the disappointment in his heart was beyond measure, he didn't know if he still had time to cultivate a new successor, but he knew for sure that Jiang Yu, as the eldest son, was no longer a qualified prince.

"The widow is tired today, so let's step down!"

"No!"

Everyone spoke in unison, and then they retreated.
