Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, recovered from his illness, which made all the courtiers breathe a sigh of relief. During this time, they were indeed uncomfortable between the prince, the queen and the king. Some people choose to wait and see, and some choose to take refuge. The onlookers sneered in their hearts at this time, glad that their choice was extremely correct; A few of the refuge families were happy and a few worried, those who supported the queen were cleaned up by Liu Shuang, and those who supported Liu Shuang were cleaned up by Liu Ci, and only those who played Infernal Affairs such as Zhang Guangchang escaped.

In order to prevent Liu Shuang from making radical moves under the anger, Liu Ci worked with Zhang Guangchang and Xi Ci overnight to deal with Liu Shuang's henchmen cleanly. When Liu Shuang took Wei Qing to perform a private visit to the micro-service in Nanbei City, he had already become a loner.

There was no discussion for more than ten days, Liu Ci sat on the main seat early in the morning, moved his right arm slightly, and the soreness on his shoulder made him tremble in his heart: "This king has been sick for so many days, all of you are conscientious and conscientious, this king is very relieved, from today onwards, you can not slack off in performing your duties, this king announced one thing, and so on after the New Year, this king decided to go to Chang'an in person to meet, and the affairs of the country were handed over to Xiao'er to deal with, you should assist Xiao'er, and you should not waste government affairs." ”

"Father, rest assured, the child must be attentive and dare not have the slightest fatigue." Liu Xiao was beaming. Liu Shuang had a sad face.

"Lu'an County, the death of this king's concubine will be investigated urgently, and the thief will be caught, do you understand?"

The newly appointed Lu'an County Commander hurriedly knelt down: "No! The subordinates should do their best! ”

Liu Ci nodded: "Next year is the year of my Hengshan country's audience, and it is also the year of Huainan's country's audience. ”

Everyone didn't react for a while, and the news that Liu Ci suddenly released surprised everyone. Going to Chang'an to meet is a very risky job, because no one has the backstage of King Liang. King Liang has the doting of Empress Dowager Dou, and he has the golden mouth of Emperor Jing's brother and brother, so King Liang can't wait to stay in Chang'an and not come back. Even so, he still died on the way to Chang'an.

Except for King Liang, who died early, the other princes and kings were very secretive about going to Chang'an to see him, and they were nervous even if they thought about it. Liu Ci, the king of Hengshan, not only personally declared that he was going to Chang'an this time, but also pulled the king of Huainan. What does that mean? Find a cushion or find your own brother to huddle together to keep warm and tide over the difficulties together?

All the ministers looked at Xi Ci, and Xi Ci stood at the head of the team with his beard in his hands and closed his eyes. The generals looked at Zhang Guangchang, and Zhang Guangchang did not squint, as if this had nothing to do with him. A few people who were good at observing words and expressions immediately understood, it seemed that Liu Ci had made up his mind, but he didn't know who said that Liu Ci was moved. These people guessed in their hearts and did not open their mouths, because they knew that whoever spoke first was likely to be named by the king. King Hengshan has figured it out, and King Huainan knows what to think.

Liu Ci waited for a long time, but no one said anything, everyone is smart and knows the stakes. As a last resort, Liu Ci coughed lightly: "Prime Minister, you know your subordinates well, can you recommend one?" ”

Everyone became nervous and hurriedly avoided Xi Ci's gaze.

"No!" Xi Ci got up, gave Liu Ci a salute, turned his head, and swept his gaze over the faces of everyone present. All Xi Ci saw was worry, anxiety, and flattery. He is the minister of state, and he is very familiar with these people who are standing on his side, and even the five big and three rough soldiers on the opposite side know it clearly.

From the beginning to the end, and from the end to the head. Although the turmoil in Hengshan this time did not hurt the vitality, it still made the Hengshan officialdom undergo a test of blood and fire. Many people were dealt with round after round because they chose the wrong camp and stood too close to Liu Shuang, Liu Xiao and Xu Lai. Now standing here is either a tendon or a wall grass. If you want to contact the king of Huainan, there is no suitable one.

"Your Majesty, your subordinates have a proposal!" Wei Qing, who was standing at the end of the line, spoke for the first time in the lobby. Everyone had almost forgotten about this man, and it was not so strange to see him suddenly today, but they were surprised that he actually spoke. The storms in Hengshan Country knocked down many people one after another, but Wei Qing disappeared when the storm first started, and Liu Ci suddenly appeared after he recovered from his illness.

"Mr. Wei said!" Liu Ci said immediately.

"The subordinates think that I am not suitable for the officials of Hengshan Country!" As soon as these words came out, there was a discussion in the hall, and several imperial historians became active at once, accusing Wei Qing of looking down on Hengshan Country and the King of Hengshan. Wei Qing stood silently in the middle, letting those people point fingers at him.

"Papapa...... "Liu Ci slapped a few cases, and everyone quieted down: "Look at you, where do you still look like subordinates?" Just now, they were all frowning and silent, and as soon as Mr. Wei said a word, you have become like this, what kind of system! He glanced at Wei Qing: "Mr. Wei continued, since there is no one in the court of my Hengshan Kingdom, Mr. Wei knows where there are virtuous people, and this king will definitely come to the door to seek talents." ”

Wei Qing said: "This person may not be virtuous, but he really needs the king to come to the door, and no matter which one of them is not moved." ”

"Bold Weiqing, he is talking nonsense, Hengshan Country is the king's Hengshan country, who doesn't listen to the king's call? There are such people who should be arrested and beheaded! The imperial historians who had just been scolded by Liu Ci heard the loopholes in Wei Qing's words, and they jumped out again one by one, wanting to show their loyalty to King Hengshan.

Liu Ci also frowned: "Who is Mr. Wei talking about who fell to the ground?" It won't ......"

Xi Ci hurriedly said: "No, absolutely not, this person is an official of the court, how can he be the envoy of my Hengshan country, even if he is willing, the court will not agree, there has never been such a precedent in the world." ”

A few people who wanted to understand hurriedly shut up, and those who didn't understand it were still roaring: "It's still an official of the court, so you can't be a messenger, this time it's the king's envoy, how can you let the officials of the court do it?" Wouldn't that make King Huainan laugh at us, no one cares about Hengshan Kingdom. ”

"Exactly, never!" A bunch of demographic criticisms. Wei Qing remained silent, standing quietly under the hall and waiting for Liu Ci to ask again.

didn't wait long, Liu Ci said again very cooperatively: "If this person is wise, this king is full of confidence in him, but this person has a special identity, and now he has important affairs in the court, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out." ”

As soon as these few words came out, I couldn't figure out who the person in Wei Qing's mouth was, he was a pure fool. Even Liu Shuang grew his mouth in surprise and shook his head at Wei Qing. In this regard, Wei Qing turned a blind eye and said to Liu Ci: "The southern princes and the court are worried about the king and the king of Huainan, since the king took the initiative to meet, presumably the court will not be embarrassed, so there is only the king of Huainan left, as long as the king reports to the court, explains the illegal things of the king of Huainan, and then shows the idea of making Su Ren the envoy, the court will definitely agree." ”

Su Ren, sure enough, it's Su Ren! There was no sound in the lobby. Liu Ci glanced at it and suddenly smiled: "What?" When you hear Su Ren's name, you don't say anything? ”

Xi Ci sighed: "If this is the case, the king of Huainan will definitely know, how should the king deal with himself at that time?" ”

Wei Qing said: "Actually, the king doesn't need to say it to the court, as long as he says it to Su Ren." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Su Rennai is His Majesty's confidant, and such secrets will naturally be reported to His Majesty, as long as His Majesty sends a secret edict!"

"Father thinks twice! Wei Qing harbors evil intentions, and he should be punished! Liu Xiao suddenly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Liu Ci: "The king of Huainan and his father are brothers, and the country of Huainan and our country of Hengshan are even more lips and teeth, if the king of Huainan has a mistake, the country of Huainan will naturally fall apart, but it has done a good thing for the court, and the lips and teeth are cold!" ”

Liu Ci glanced at Liu Xiao appreciatively, and his face softened a lot: "What my son said is exact, get up!" Since the king has prepared to meet him, the rest of the things are not important, and the matter will be handed over to Mr. Wei to deal with, as long as Su Ren agrees to send an envoy to Huainan Kingdom, this king will never spare anything. ”

Wei Qing sang a promise and slowly retreated. Liu Ci made the final decision, and others naturally had no objections. In addition to Liu Ci, Xi Ci and Zhang Guangchang, none of them objected, presumably the matter had been properly discussed. Although Liu Xiao expressed his opinion, he was actually showing loyalty to Liu Ci, and it had nothing to do with really blocking it.

After the dispersal, Wei Qing walked very fast, and Liu Shuang trotted to catch up, reaching out to grab Wei Qing's arm: "Come with me, I have something to ask you!" ”

Wei Qing was not stubborn, and followed Liu Shuang into Liu Shuang's carriage. The courtiers behind him were stunned for a moment, staring at each other with big eyes, and they didn't understand why Wei Qing, who had never been low-key, took refuge in the cold stove of the prince, could it be ......? Everyone got into their own carriage and walked back with their own thoughts, presumably pondering this little thing all the way.

The carriage passed through the bazaar and the streets, and slowly headed towards the Shizifu. Liu Shuang and Wei Qing sat opposite each other, and Liu Shuang looked at it for a long time: "What do you mean?" Why do you recommend Su Ren to envoy Huainan? ”

"Don't worry, this matter is beneficial to the prince!"

Liu Shuang frowned. Wei Qing continued: "You are the prince of Hengshan Kingdom, and the king let the second prince supervise the state affairs during his absence, this matter will never be allowed by the imperial court, but my Hengshan country is located in a remote area, as long as the king does not say that others will never dare to say much, this time the promotion of Su Ren is to let the king report this matter to the court, as long as the court knows, it will never agree to be supervised by the second son, so that the next son can justifiably supervise the state affairs." ”

Liu Shuang thought for a while: "But what if Su Ren doesn't say it?" ”

Wei Qing said: "The king handed over this matter to his subordinates, and the subordinates have their own ways to let Su Ren say it to His Majesty." ”

Liu Shuang's face turned from gloomy to sunny, and he leaned on the carriage with a long body: "Mr. is really talented, if you don't explain it, this son really can't think of it, who is you afraid of if there is a gentleman to help this son?" There are many rewards for doing this! ”

Wei Qing thanked him with a gift: "I don't dare to reward it, my subordinates are loyal to the prince!" ”

"Okay, if he succeeds in the future, you will be the minister of state!"
