There were many people in the Qianqing Palace, but it was surprisingly quiet, and only the sound of Zao Wou-Ki using a cinnabar pen to review the folds was heard. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zao Wou-Ki didn't speak, and the others naturally didn't dare to make a sound casually, they all knew that the person in front of him could not say a word, but he could also make your head fall to the ground with a word.

"Mr. Su has worked hard these days."

Finally, Zao Wou-Ki put down the cinnabar pen, gently moved his wrist, took the warm tea brought by the personal old eunuch Zhang Xi, and took a sip slightly.

Hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Su Heng immediately stepped forward and bowed unhurriedly: "This is the duty of the grass people." ”

Zhao Wuji smiled inhibitedly and said: "Lord Xu once told Mr. Su in Danyang that the bandits in Guanshan and several princes in the court colluded with each other, why did Mr. Su dare to stay in Danyang to suppress the bandits at the risk of offending several princes?" The Guanshan bandits pay tribute to several princes every year There is not a lot of gold and silver property, and the gentleman is bent on suppressing the bandits, isn't it blocking the financial path of several princes, isn't he afraid of revenge in the future? ”

Hearing Zhao Wouji's words, although Su Heng lowered his head, he was very surprised in his heart, when he heard Xu Zhirong's words about the collusion between the bandits in Guanshan and several princes, he was still cold, worried about what would become of Da Chu in the hands of these people in the future.

But now that Zao Wou-Ki actually knew it clearly, he subconsciously looked at Xu Zhirong for the first time.

When Su Heng looked over, he found that Xu Zhirong was also looking at him, but the smile on his face was a little embarrassed, and he nodded apologetically at him.

Scammed!

Seeing Xu Zhirong's appearance, Su Heng immediately thought that it seemed that all this was a trap from beginning to end, or that from the first time he saw Xu Zhirong and the first words he said, the so-called test had already begun.

Many thoughts flashed, Su Heng calmed down, suppressed his emotions, and many words flashed in his mind, and finally said truthfully: "If there are really a few princes in the court who collude with the Guanshan bandits, then they will have to go against them even more, if nothing else, just to keep the century-old foundation of Dachu, the prince and the mountain bandits collude, and the country of Dachu must not fall into the hands of this group of people!" ”

Although Su Heng's tone was gentle, it was not difficult to hear the firmness and fearless belief in his voice.

Several princes present looked at Su Heng with complicated expressions, and even Zhao Wuchang, who had always looked disdainful, subconsciously looked at him, and his provocative gaze didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhao Wouji glanced at the expressions of the people below, and then smiled gently: "Mr. Su is really innocent and loyal to the imperial court, but don't blame Lord Xu, sir, he actually didn't lie to you, there are several princes in the court who do accept the gold and silver property of the Guanshan bandits every year, but all of this is instigated by me." ”

As soon as Zao Wou-Ki's words fell, Zhao Wencheng, who was the first of the princes, first arched his hand at Zao Wou-ki, and then said to Su Heng: "Although we have different opinions and ideas on weekdays, we are absolutely unambiguous in the face of the country's righteousness, and we will never be able to accept the property of the Guanshan bandits to help them oppress our people of Dachu. ”

After Zhao Wencheng finished speaking, the other princes also nodded firmly, although they usually fight openly and secretly, but they still know some things.

Seeing the reactions of several princes, Zhao Wouji also nodded with satisfaction, touched the dragon whisker on his chin, and continued: "At the beginning, I asked Lord Xu to appease the bandits in Guanshan, the main reason was to lure out the Xuanyi Army that could not be hidden in secret, but fortunately, Lord Xu's forbearance was not in vain, after all, he still found the nest of the Xuanyi Army through the clues left by the Xuanyi Army and Hu Dashan when he contacted him. It's just that I didn't expect that Lord Xu's family died in the hands of Hu Dashan in the end, which was negligent and forgot the murderous nature of the mountain bandits. ”

Thinking of his dead relatives, Xu Zhirong's face was also a little sad, but he still said firmly: "As long as I can exterminate that group of rebels and protect my century-old foundation of Great Chu, even if I gamble on my Xu Zhirong's head, the minister will not have a word of complaint." ”

Xu Zhirong almost roared out of these words, originally Su Heng had some estrangement in Xu Zhirong's heart before, but after hearing this, there was no need in his heart, everything Xu Zhirong did was for the country and the people, and even gambled his own life, what reason did he have to blame him.

Zhao Wuji comforted Xu Zhirong a few more words, then turned back to the topic and continued to ask Su Heng: "In the area of Guanshan Canyon when he first entered the Guanshan Canyon, Lord Xu deliberately exposed his flaws and told Mr. that there was a lot of danger inside, why did Mr. still choose to go in?" ”

Knowing that all his whereabouts in Danyang had not been hidden from Zhao Wuji's ears and eyes, Su Heng was no longer surprised, and replied: "There are more than 100,000 bandits in Guanshan, these people rob houses and houses on weekdays, and the people of Danyang City are miserable, if the grass people retreat this time, it will undoubtedly boost the arrogance of the bandits, and if the grass people retreat, the people sent by the court to suppress the bandits next time can also choose to retreat like the grass people, everyone retreats like this, then when will the Danyang bandit problem be solved?" The people of Danyang will always be living in dire straits, so I chose to fight to the death against the Guanshan bandits, and I also believe that I will be able to exterminate them. ”

Su Heng is very confident, no one doubts this, several princes have their own eyes and ears, they have long known the process of the battle of Guanshan, and the infusion of talent without limit is still an unsolved mystery in their hearts.

Zhao Wuji didn't express any opinion, just nodded, and continued to ask: "Mr. Su used a concerted strategy to stir up the situation in Guanshan at that time, causing them to kill each other, and later burned Guanshan, and finally put the water of the Dan River to extinguish the fire, didn't he worry that the flood would destroy the foundation of half of Danyang City, and I would be to blame?" After all, I want an intact Danyang City, not a dilapidated Danyang City that needs to be distributed every year with silver taels to go to relief. ”

Zao Wou-Ki said these words in a heavy tone, his eyes wide with anger, as if there was a precursor to a violent rage.

The Son of Heaven was furious, ambushed millions of corpses, and bled for thousands of miles.

In ancient and modern times, very few people can be calm in front of the angry Son of Heaven.

And Su Heng is just one of these very few people.

Su Heng still stood upright, his body didn't move, and he was not affected by Zhao Wuji's tone, his heart was as calm as water, and he said softly: "Compared to losing the entire Danyang City, Your Majesty should still choose half of Danyang City, even if you still need to distribute silver taels every year for relief." ”

A simple sentence made Zao Wou-ki, who was still full of anger just now, instantly put away his anger and laughed loudly, and his laughter echoed throughout the Qianqing Palace.

When several princes heard this, they were all thoughtful.

That's right, the situation in Danyang City was very critical at that time, Hu Dashan had already discussed it with the people of the Xuanyi Army, and after the Xuanyi Army revolted, he would also follow the uprising, and then take Danyang City, but Su Heng relieved the siege of Danyang City, and then was forced to withdraw to Guanshan, preparing to continue to besiege Danyang after waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from the Xuanyi Army.

Su Heng was also worried about this at the beginning, knowing that Hu Dashan was waiting for the arrival of the Xuanyi Army, so he was ruthless, burned Guanshan, released the water of the Dan River, and eliminated the hidden danger of Danyang in one fell swoop.

In addition, Xu Zhirong had secretly received a secret order from Zhao Wouji, if Su Heng did not have the courage to solve the Guanshan bandits as quickly as possible, then Xu Zhirong would intervene and remove the hidden danger of Danyang in accordance with Zhao Wouji's instructions, and never let the Xuanyi Army and the Guanshan bandits converge.

Similarly, if Xu Zhirong intervened, it would mean that Su Heng's test had failed.
