Chapter 123: What You Should Not Say
Hearing Zhou An's words, the empress's pupils shrank sharply, and she stared at Zhou An.
No blame, no suspicion, she just didn't understand the intention of what Zhou An said, let alone understand, how dare Zhou An say such things in front of Kang Longji?
Not to mention the other consequences of telling Kang Longji about his ill health, it is by no means a good thing for Kang Longji!
Kang Longji, as the great grandmaster of the Tiangang Realm, has extremely strong strength, and is currently the stable Dinghai Divine Needle of the Dongqian Imperial Family and the Dongqian Rivers and Mountains! And he is too old, everyone understands that once Kang Longji has a physical problem, he is not far from death.
If the outside world knows about this matter, then Kang Longji is likely to be targeted, no one dared to do this before, Wu Xukuan didn't dare, because Kang Longji was too strong, but now Kang Longji is going to fail, Wu Xukuan naturally dares to do it.
He even dared to send someone to assassinate Kang Longji, not to kill Kang Longji, but to try how much Kang Longji's strength had decreased, or to cause some damage to Kang Longji and speed up his death, which was also good.
The hall was silent.
The empress looked at Zhou An and groaned, but turned back and glanced at Kang Longji.
Kang Longji's expression was indifferent and unwavering.
"Xiao Anzi!" The empress looked at Zhou An again and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"The saint, the slave only knew that the grandfather was in poor health, and he should have tried his best to conceal it, because the grandfather was a key weapon of the town, and without the grandfather, Wu Xukuan would inevitably be even more rampant, and he would definitely further persecute the saint...... On the other hand, Grandpa Tai is a kind of restraint to Wu Xukuan, and the slave says a disrespectful word, Wu Xukuan hopes that Grandpa Tai will die! ”
Zhou An said this, and looked up at the empress's eyes: "And if the news of the grandfather's health is spread out, if Wu Xukuan knows, he will be ecstatic, and he will even change his original plan for this, and will wait for the grandfather to die!" Wu Xukuan only showed his resentment when Emperor Shendu was seriously ill in the early days, and it has been four or five years now, and he has been waiting for four or five years, and he definitely doesn't care about waiting for a few more months......"
"That is to say, when the news gets out, it can achieve the effect of delay, which is enough to drag Wu Xukuan and let him slow down his plan, Wu Xukuan will definitely wait, wait for the death of the grandfather before acting, this is also the least dangerous and best plan for him!"
Moreover, Wu Xukuan must be afraid, afraid that Grandpa Tai would find him desperately before he died, so he would become more cautious, and it could even be said that he would become more forbearing! will temporarily put away his fangs, even if the saint further encroaches on Wu Xukuan's momentum during this period, Wu Xukuan may be able to endure it! ”
"That's why the minions suggest that." Zhou An said, his voice softened, and then he said, "And this is only one of them, and there is also the other!" ”
"Revealing to the outside world that Grandpa Tai is in poor health can not only drag Wu Xukuan down, but also create a false impression and conceal the matter of breaking the pill." Zhou An said again.
"Slaves refining Broken Pill, at present, the success rate is not high, slaves need to continue refining, more and more proficient, in order to carry out a large batch of alchemy, the cost of which can be described as huge, and the refining of Broken Pill used in a variety of precious medicinal materials, there are not many in the inner house, it must be purchased from outside...... And it's a massive purchase. ”
"Therefore, the matter of the minion's alchemy cannot be hidden, as long as a large number of precious medicinal materials are purchased, with Wu Xukuan's connections and eyeline, he will definitely be able to find out something, but Wu Xukuan must not be allowed to find out the inside story of the Tiance Army and the Broken Pill...... Therefore, it is necessary to shift the direction of Wu Xukuan's investigation. ”
"Revealing the matter of the grandfather, you can achieve the purpose of diverting the direction of his investigation, and release the news, Wu Xukuan knows that the grandfather's life is not long, and if he knows about the minion alchemy, he will inevitably think that the slave alchemy is to save the grandpa! is to renew the life of the grandfather, which will make everything reasonable, so that the matter of breaking the Dan can be completely concealed from others. ”
Zhou An looked at the empress, and finally said: "Holy Lord, you need time very much now, even if the slave hands over the Dan prescription to others and alchemy with a group of alchemists, if you want to refine thousands of Dan, it will take an extremely long time, and even whether you can purchase enough precious medicinal materials in a short period of time is not necessarily...... And releasing the news that Grandpa Tai is in poor health is also to buy enough time for the saint, which is the best policy! ”
Zhou An finished speaking.
There is no problem with what he said!
This is indeed the best policy.
However, this involves the safety of Kanglongji.
The hall fell silent again.
Zhou An hung his head, waiting for the empress to reply.
Seriously, Zhou An can say this today, not for himself, but really for the sake of Dongqianjiang, if he is for himself, it will be impossible to say this kind of thing that will make Kang Longji feel guilty.
If he doesn't say it, he won't make mistakes, this is the first time he has taken the initiative to "make mistakes" in front of the empress.
The empress was speechless for a long time.
She didn't look back at Kang Longji, because she didn't want to force Kang Longji, Kang Longji dedicated his life to the imperial court, the empress was able to ascend the throne smoothly, and it was Kang Longji who protected the empress to this day, Kang Longji is not a slave to the empress, but a wise man, an elder, a person to rely on, and a guardian saint!
It is also a person who must not let his heart chill.
Kang Longji has been teaching the empress not to be emotional.
The empress has always been like this.
But if people are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless?
This matter is related to Kang Longji's safety, how can the empress be completely rational?
"Holy." Kang Longji, who was standing behind, suddenly spoke, he was very calm, "The old slave thinks that what Xiao Anzi said is reasonable......"
"Kang Gong ......" The empress turned back suddenly.
"That's it." Kang Longji looked at the empress and said, he had never given orders in public on behalf of the empress, although he had decided some major matters for the empress before, but that was something that the empress also nodded, and in the end, it was definitely the empress who made the decision.
This is the first time, and probably the last.
The empress pursed her lips and was speechless.
"It's all gone." Kang Longji said lightly again.
"The last will retire!"
"The minions are gone!"
Zhou An, Gao Hong and others all bowed down to receive the order, and they all retreated one by one.
Soon everyone went out, and in addition to some little eunuchs and palace maids in the main hall, only Kang Longji and the empress were left.
……
Outside the Qianyuan Palace, Zhou An looked at the railing, and the cold wind hit his face, and his face was full of melancholy.
He didn't know if he was right to say this today.
In a righteous sense, he was not wrong.
But I always feel that I am a little sorry for Kang Longji, after today, Kang Longji, who is no longer in good health, is at risk of being assassinated, although the probability of this situation is very low, but if Kang Longji really has an accident because of this, Zhou An doesn't know how to atone for his crimes.
Zhou An has great respect for Kang Longji, and he is also grateful for Kang Longji's kindness, he understands that without Kang Longji's approval, he would not have the power he has today, and it is impossible to get to this position today.
And openly and secretly, Kang Longji already regards him as his successor.
So......
"Alas!" Zhou An sighed.
Syllable!
kept pressing his big hand on Zhou An's shoulder, Zhou An turned his head and saw that it was Gao Hong.
Gao Hong looked at Zhou An, pinched Zhou An's shoulder, and patted him lightly twice, as if to appease, but he didn't say anything, turned around and left.
Zhou An was speechless, and looked out of the fence again.
After waiting for the tea, the door of the Qianyuan Hall opened again.
Zhou An turned around and saw that it was Kang Longji who came out, so he immediately walked over quickly and called, "Grandpa...... grandpa"
