Chapter 254: Conspiracy
"Lord Zhao, don't be suspicious, this palace is just because I came to you every day in the palace to invite you a few days ago, and you refused again and again because you were unwell, so I came to visit you in person."
Although Zhuo Siyi said with a smile, Lord Liu felt that this woman was very gloomy, so he pretended not to care and smiled, and said: "What should I do, I was really uncomfortable in those days, and I was afraid that the eldest princess would laugh, so I didn't go, and the princess should not blame." ”
"That's nature, this palace is naturally not the person with a small belly. However, a few days ago, this palace seemed to hear that your son seems to be saddled with a life lawsuit, and I don't know if it's true or not. Zhuo Siyi pretended to be very puzzled.
Then Lord Liu was naturally a little unable to sit still, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "I don't know where the eldest princess heard the news, this is also very ridiculous." It's unbelievable that my child has been studying hard at home. After that, he picked up the tea beside him and took a few sips to hide his panic.
Zhuo Siyi naturally knew that there would be no falsehood in this matter, so he pretended to be casual and said, "The prime minister doesn't seem to know about this matter yet." Lord Liu, you said that if the Prime Minister heard about it, would he investigate it thoroughly? ”
After hearing this, Lord Liu's face was even more ugly, he didn't expect that he had been an official for so many years, but he was threatened by a princess who had no power, so he said a little angrily: "The eldest princess said this, isn't she threatening the minister?" It's just something out of nowhere, and even if the prime minister is a high and powerful person, he can't wronged innocent people. ”
"All of them are innocent, and Lord Liu's heart is naturally clearer than mine. Or maybe Lord Liu felt that this thing was done seamlessly, but he never expected that the wall had ears. Zhuo Siyi was not annoyed, but continued to smile.
At this time, Lord Liu was even more angry in his heart, if he pleaded for mercy at this time, then he would be held in the hands of Zhuo Siyi, a woman; But if he continues to fight against it, his son is afraid that he will not be able to save it.
Lord Liu suddenly laughed and said: "The eldest princess's words really make the old minister more and more incomprehensible, and I don't know what the eldest princess is here this time, the old minister will do his best to help."
Zhuo Siyi saw Lord Liu's reaction, and felt a little more proud, it seemed that this old guy was finally willing to put down his heart and listen to what he was going to say, so he said: "Presumably Lord Liu knows better than this palace in his heart the sentence 'The country cannot be without a king for a day'." ”
"That's natural, I don't know what the eldest princess means......"
"Right now, Lord Regent doesn't want to be the emperor, and he is not in the palace. It is not appropriate to leave all these matters to Situ Shu alone. ”
When Lord Liu heard this, he probably knew the purpose of Zhuo Siyi's visit this time.
"I think the Bai family, who was loyal to the imperial court at the beginning, still has a son. Lord Liu doesn't have to work hard, just wait for some time to make it clear in the court that he supports the Bai family's widow to sit on this throne. ”
This Lord Zhao has been in the officialdom for so long, and he can still get out of the way, relying on his sleek way of doing things. When he heard Zhuo Siyi's plan, he felt that this woman was really whimsical, even if he could agree, would Situ Ji be able to give up?
"However, I'm afraid that the prime minister's side will not agree, even if the old minister is willing to speak for the eldest princess, it may not be successful."
"Isn't it up to you?" Zhuo Siyi looked at Lord Liu and said.
"Lean, old minister? What does this mean? Lord Liu actually understood what Zhuo Siyi meant, but he still pretended not to understand anything.
"Lord Liu, you are very shrewd in everything, why are you so confused in this matter? Or do you think that this Situ is more qualified to be the prime minister than you? Zhuo Siyi's words pierced Lord Liu's heart accurately and ruthlessly, making him a little annoyed and angry.
"If Lord Liu is willing to cooperate with this palace. Not to mention your son's business, even the prime minister will be yours sooner or later. ”
The allure of this sentence is really strong, and it really makes Lord Liu moved, but if Zhuo Siyi is easily able to see through his thoughts, then when he has been in the officialdom for so many years?
Lord Liu did not respond, but smiled very calmly and said, "The prime minister is young and promising, and the old minister admires it. But since you have already opened this mouth, the princess should have done the princess a favor, and the princess of the province ran away in the middle of the night. ”
Zhuo Siyi saw that Lord Liu's side was almost successful, and said, "It's good that adults have a number in their hearts." Hongu is just here to see how you're doing. It's late at night, so I won't disturb Lord Liu's rest. ”
After saying that, Zhuo Siyi left Liu's mansion, and Lord Liu breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
He never expected that this eldest princess, who seemed to worry about nothing on weekdays, would have such thoughts, which is really unseemly. However, at present, I will not suffer anything in this matter, and even if I investigate, I will not find out about myself, which can be said to be beneficial and harmless.
However, how could this Zhuo Siyi know that his son had killed someone a few days ago? This matter is obviously done in an extremely obscure way, and no one else knows about it, and everything that is known has been dealt with by himself.
Lord Liu may have guessed in his heart that it was this Zhuo Siyi who deliberately set his son up in the first place, so that his son accidentally killed someone. But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to quibble, so I can only admit it.
A big net against Situ is slowly spreading. Zhuo Siyi has long regarded this person as a thorn in the flesh. Since he was a child, Situ Ji has been better to Zhuo Yu, and now above the court, Yu Chi Jin has already gone out, if Situ Ji disappears again, then no one will stop her from doing whatever she wants.
Zhuo Siyi has already convinced Lord Liu, and his soldiers and horses have almost been prepared. These days, although Situ Ji is the government on behalf of the government, the Queen Mother is the biggest power in the end, and everything has to be listened to in the end. If you secretly make some stumbling blocks for Situ Ji, you will definitely be able to overthrow him quickly. At that time, even if Wei Chijin came back, it would be useless.
At present, not only do you not want to form a gang, but also divide the ministers around Situ Shu, and let him be alone in this court, so that it will be much easier to solve.
If you want others to know that you are isolating this person, it is easy to say, but if this Situ Ji harms the interests of the people around him, it will definitely cause annoyance. People, after all, get together because of interests. If Situ Qu obstructs their way, see how they are willing to stand on Situ Qu's side, even if Situ Qu has great ability, he will not be able to prevent his fate of being impeached.
