Chapter 4: The way to break the game
"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious, your father has done a good job." Of course, Xiao Jingning will not say that Xiao Xin has done wrong, because he has not done anything wrong, Xiao Yuanshi, this child has always admired his father, that is his guiding light, she hopes that Xiao Yuanshi can be a Ming Jun in the future, "The things of the world are not black and white." No one can really be perfect. Your father did this, and he had the confidence to keep the person he wanted to protect. But in the future, it won't be his business. ”
"Brother Pingjing......" Xiao Yuanshi read the name and closed his eyes, he really couldn't imagine what he would do if the people from the Changlin Palace's mansion left one by one, but he quickly opened his eyes, and his eyes were firm, "Queen Mother, what the father and emperor can do, the sons can also do it." ”
"Not afraid?"
"It's useless to be afraid."
Xiao Jingning smiled, she nodded, "Okay, then let's talk about traps now." She told Xiao Yuanshi in detail about the affairs of Wuying Palace, "What do you think about this matter?"
"Originally, Erchen thought it was the political enemy of the Changlin Palace," Xiao Yuanshi had been listening to Xiao Jingning quietly, so he didn't miss a word, and he listened and analyzed it, "But I didn't expect it to sound like an accident?"
"It seems?" Xiao Jingning only repeated these two words, and then looked at Xiao Yuanshi without speaking.
"Erchen can be sure that this is not an accident, maybe it is the lord of Chonghua, but Erchen can't figure it out, why did she kill King Hui, it was her cousin."
"King Hui, the queen mother heard your uncle say that he is the only prince of Beiyan, and he has the demeanor of a wise monarch, so as long as he lives, there must be no chance for other princes. The closer you get to the imperial power, the more dangerous the situation becomes, and no amount of family and friendship may be as good as the temptation of power. Looking at Xiao Yuanshi's somewhat pale little face, he said softly: "Yuanshi, you are in a different situation from them, so don't put these on yourself."
"Erchen is just uncomfortable, Brother Pingjing is planted under such calculations." Xiao Yuanshi thought about that situation, but he couldn't find a way to break the situation, "Queen Mother, Erchen wants to find a way for Brother Pingjing, but how to break the situation?"
"If you were your father, what would you do?"
After thinking for a while, Xiao Yuanshi looked at Xiao Jingning, "Those Wenchen can't wait for the Changlin Palace's bad luck, so my father can only ask the imperial uncle for advice, but the imperial uncle is not good at scheming, and the final solution can only be from the father's handwriting." If you want to keep Pingjing's brother, I am afraid that you will choose to back down, such as making some concessions in the peace agreement. ”
"What do you think of Yuanshi?"
"Erchen thinks that this is a good strategy and is not advisable, but I can't say what is wrong."
"Being able to think of this, Yuan Shi is already growing, and the queen mother is very pleased." Xiao Jingning nodded in affirmation of Xiao Yuanshi, "Sensei said that we can be sure that this matter has nothing to do with Pingjing, even if it is really a situation caused by Pingjing's carelessness, we must not back down." ”
"Huh?" Xiao Yuanshi's eyes widened and he looked at Xiao Jingning, who looked calm, he couldn't understand, "Why?" ”
"As long as we back down, we are at a loss. In the future, Beiyan can start a war at any time for this reason, at this time, the Changlin Palace, will inevitably become the target of the public, and the contradictions between the Changlin Palace, the ministers of the court will inevitably become more and more entangled, I am afraid that at that time, even the people will attribute the cause of the war to the Changlin Palace, which is at the cusp of the storm, as long as it retreats, the life of the second son of Changlin will be ruined, and the Changlin Palace, as a whole, is also difficult to preserve. ”
When Xiao Yuanshi heard this, he stood up and was about to go out, but Xiao Jingning hurriedly stopped him, "Yuanshi! Where are you going?"
"If the son wants to stop his father, he must not back down!"
"And then?" Xiao Jingning coldly threw out three words, "Then how to deal with it in the future, do you have a way?"
"Since that is the disaster of their Northern Yan Imperial Power, why should they deduct basins on our beams?" Xiao Yuanshi was really angry.
"Why, she did it."
"But are we just left to their calculations?"
"What we can think of, Changlin Shizi can also think of."
"Brother Pingzhang!" Xiao Yuanshi was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Yes, Erchen actually forgot that Brother Pingzhang is such a meticulous person, and he will definitely be able to find a way." But what can be done?"
"He just needs to convince that Langya master Tuoba Yu that this is not an accident, but an assassination carefully planned by the county lord of Chonghua, and it is enough."
"How is this possible?"
"For the sake of his younger brother, for the sake of his father, he can do it." Xiao Jingning's words were equally categorical, "Since Tuoba Yu is a master of Langya, his eyesight will naturally not be bad, as long as he calms down, he will be able to figure it out." And he can give up the arbitrary rivers and lakes to escort King Hui to Daliang, their feelings must be extraordinary, he will definitely avenge King Hui, even if he can't kill people, he will make trouble for the instigators behind him. ”
"Then how can you calm down Tuoba Yu?" Xiao Yuanshi ran to Xiao Jingning and knelt down, looking at her with bright eyes.
Xiao Jingning looked back at these eyes and said with a smile: "The queen mother doesn't know."
"Queen Mother!" Xiao Yuanshi shook Xiao Jingning's arm and coquettishly.
"The queen mother really doesn't know," rubbing Xiao Yuanshi's head, Xiao Jingning continued: "When the second son comes out, you let him tell you in person."
"That'...... The queen mother," Xiao Yuanshi continued to shake Xiao Jingning's arm, "Queen mother, Tuoba Yu calmed down and thought clearly, is this matter over?"
"Of course not, what we want in the end is not to back down. Therefore, we need to write a national letter, inform Beiyan of the facts, and announce it to the world. ”
"Erchen understands!" Xiao Yuanshi was very happy, if he was dealt with like this, even if Beiyan didn't recognize it, he would still use this excuse to start a war in the future, at least the subjects of Daliang would not be confused, and Changlin Wangfu was still the unshakable patron saint of Daliang.
"Don't be too happy, I'm afraid the Changlin Mansion won't be able to calm down in the future." Xiao Jingning poured a basin of cold water without hesitation at this time.
"Huh?" Xiao Yuanshi smiled on his face, "Isn't it all solved?" Why can't you be calm?"
"Because this incident has opened a door for those who have a heart, they will find that the Changlin Mansion is not monolithic. If you can't gnaw on the old prince, you can't gnaw on the world, so what about this second son?"
"Brother Pingjing......" Xiao Yuanshi suddenly understood, but he didn't have any way.
There was silence inside, Xiao Xin knew that he wouldn't hear anything more, and he needed to sort out everything he heard today, so he quietly came to listen to the corner, and left quietly, and specially asked people to tell those slaves and maids not to say that he had come.
