Chapter 120: King Zhou Jing sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight
The place where Helian is imprisoned is the cold palace in the imperial palace, located in a partial corner.
Ha Lian was doing nonsense in the cold palace all day long, and no one knew about it except for the guards and the maids who served.
But! The palace is a place of right and wrong, where various forces are intricate, and there are other people's inside lines wherever they are.
Furthermore! In this era when there is no moral bottom line, there is no loyalty at all.
Loyalty is there, but it's pitiful.
Most people do whatever it takes to survive.
Not because of moral degradation, but because it's too hard to survive, and it's too hard to live a better life. So! had to do whatever it takes.
In fact! Moral decay is not a problem of human character, but a society that is too insecure.
King Zhou Jing didn't plan to keep Helian locked up for long, and according to the news sent back by the messenger, the person sent by the prince Meng to meet Fang Jishi was already on the way. Wait until Fang Jishi comes, and then hand over the river lotus to him, and let him deal with it.
Outcome! I wonder what happened on the road? The prince's men have not yet returned.
This is not? Let Helian cause a "bad influence" on the side of the cold palace.
The people of the Gongzi Dynasty have been admonishing and asking King Zhou Jing to take this matter seriously. thinks: This is not only a loss of the face of the prince, but also a loss of the face of the Son of Heaven, the face of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the face of the Ji family and ancestors.
King Zhou Jing came to a Tai Chi pusher and asked how the people of the Gongzi Dynasty knew about the harem?
Frightened that the person who admonished him had to do it, saying that it was hearsay, and the people of the whole capital knew that there was no wind and no waves, how could it be fake?
Childe's people are also behind the scenes, trying to make things bigger. Although Gongzi did not let these people abolish the crown prince, he abolished his own brother's crown prince. But these people under his command feel that since the prince is going to be abolished sooner or later, it is better to work hard now, so as not to be in a hurry and unable to deal with it.
The people behind the other sons, each with their own agenda, suggested that Helian be killed. What to do in the harem with this person? Keep her to expose the ugliness of the Ji family?
Revealing the ugliness of the prince is equivalent to revealing the ugliness of the Son of Heaven, and losing the face of the Son of Heaven is equivalent to losing the face of the Ji family.
In fact, it is indeed the case, with Helian here, it is equivalent to losing the face of the Ji family every day.
Helian's behavior is not only a capital crime, but also a punishment for the family.
But! King Zhou Jing just didn't order the killing. Opposite! It is also deliberately concealed.
Seeing that King Zhou Jing was indifferent, the forces of all parties couldn't hold their breath anymore and discussed secretly. Weighing the pros and cons, everyone agreed that killing Helian was the best way.
Killing Helian can be blamed on the crown prince, two! Even if it is traced, there are arguments. Helian doesn't kill, the face of the prince is small, and the face of the Great Zhou Dynasty is big. So! We are willing to die, but we also want to save the face of the Son of Heaven and the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When Prince Meng and the wise men behind him learned that someone was going to kill Helian, they were very happy. thinks that someone killed Helian, just to save them from doing it. But then I felt: The other party is not to do good deeds without leaving a name, but! I'm going to blame you. After learning the true intentions of their opponents, they are again in a dilemma.
The current Helian, for Prince Meng, is not to kill, not to kill.
This is what he wants, knowing that the people behind the princes are about to move, King Zhou Jing smiled proudly behind his back.
Good! The princes moved, indicating that their battle for the crown prince had begun. Where there's pressure, there's motivation, he! It's also just the right time to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and see who the prince and the people behind them are?
Character and talent are the easiest to see at this time.
I don't want to abolish the prince now, I want to see which of you has the ability to become the prince? If you even lose the initial knockout round, what qualifications do you have to be the prince and the future emperor?
At this time, the winner does not necessarily have any great talent for governing the country, and may rely entirely on unscrupulous means.
But? Think about it: how can a person who is defeated in the knockout round be qualified for the position of the future son of heaven?
Even if you have talent, you don't have the means?
Governing the country and controlling the royal power not only depends on the talent of governance, but also has certain means. Even! is unscrupulous.
Of course! King Zhou Jing still hopes that there is a prince and the people behind him who have both the means and the ability to govern the country. If the prince wins in this way, then! The current prince can be abolished, and a new prince can be established. This new prince is the one who won.
As for Helian, he would not let the princes kill him.
This river lotus, for him, is a very crucial figure. Because with her, you can test Fang Jishi's personality and ability.
Fang Jishi is the great god of the Lu country, he has no absolute strength, no special ability, he can't mix in front of Lu Zhaogong, let alone in front of Ji Pingzi, and he can't deter Yang Hu, a retainer of the Ji family.
In the information he obtained, Yang Hu was a very powerful person. At a young age, he mixed into Ji Fuzhong and became a retainer, which shows that he is not ordinary.
And also! Since Ji Wuzi got old, after Ji Pingzi took charge of the Ji family, Yang Hu had the strength to suppress Ji Pingzi. Here's why! Yang Hu was personally promoted by Ji Wuzi during the Ji Wuzi period and belonged to the people Ji Wuzi trusted. So! Once Ji Pingzi did something wrong, Yang Hu secretly went to Ji Wuzi to make a small report. Outcome! The old man came forward to press Ji Pingzi. Outcome! Yang Hu's power gradually increased.
Although Ji Wuzi is dead, the power of Yang Hu has been formed.
Fang Jishi can deter Yang Hu, it can be seen! How capable is he?
Zhou Jingwang not only inquired about this, but he also inquired: Fang Jishi doesn't love power, loves small wealth, and is a little greedy for beauty.
Good! That's what I want. If I don't love power, I can let go and give power to him. It's good to love money! There are many capable people, and this is how it should be. Love beauty! In this way, he can retain his heart and let him stay in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in a down-to-earth manner.
King Zhou Jing was even thinking: Lu Zhaogong made Helian a princess and intended to marry Fang Jishi. The intention is obvious, and it is to slap him. So? Should I marry Princess Da Zhou to him too?
Therefore! Be sure to protect Ha Lian's safety and prevent the princes from killing her. Wait until Fang Jishi comes, see what he does?
King Zhou Jing thought to himself: I protect your "wife" so much, can you not be grateful to me? If you appreciate me, stay for it! One! Deal with the matter in front of you, how do you think you deal with it? Two! Which prince would you like to protect? You are the great god of the country of Lu, you should have your own vision.
The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear, can you choose a prince for the widow to inherit the position of the widow's son of heaven?
