King Qing was silent for a while, and suddenly asked Suning'er, "Does Yiniang know why Wen Jiqing asked Zhao Sanlang to go to Jiangnan?" ”

Su Ning'er's beautiful eyes flashed lightly, and she replied anxiously: "Uncle Huang once reminded me that Wen Jiqing didn't want the clumsy man to stay in the capital, and wanted to divide the people around the saint who could be trusted. ”

"That's true", King Qing turned his head sideways to look at her: "My imperial nephew, my childhood playmate is only Zhao Sanlang except for this king, as for the courtiers who supported him, they were all killed, this king has always been full of suspicion, he naturally will not rely on me, so the only one who can rely on is Zhao Sanlang, this is clear to the sage, and Wen Jiqing is also clear." ”

After a slight pause, he stood up again and paced back and forth in the guest hall: "If this king's guess is right, Wen Jiqing did not send Zhao Sanlang to the south, and the sage will wait until Li Guogong returns to the court, promote him to the court, and entrust him with important tasks, and then the sage will unite the two to suppress the Beiya party, so as to purge the Qing dynasty." ”

"But the rectification of salt affairs is also an urgent matter, and the humble husband has to agree to Wen Jiqing."

Su Ning'er also got up, and said in a pleading tone: "Can Uncle Huang watch Li Guogong being suppressed, he is now the only hope for overthrowing the Beiya party." ”

"When did Yiniang start to care so much about the government?"

King Qing turned his head sharply and stared at her, his eyes full of questioning.

Su Ning'er timidly lowered her head and slowed down, and then dared to raise her head to face him, and said with a smile: "The two pilgrims treat me well, although I am not as good as the imperial uncle, I have royal blood, but I have also received holy grace, and I can't watch the hard work of the two brothers of the first saint go to waste." ”

"Yes, but Yiniang should also know that this king has always been suspicious of the ancestors, and for many years, he has only made promises and never dared to ask about court affairs."

"But today's saint has a deep affection for the emperor's uncle, you were slandered by Wen Jiqing at the beginning, and it was the saint who was desperate to avenge you."

King Qing was deeply stung by her words, thinking about the things Ye Youtong had done, and he couldn't bear to close his eyes.

There was silence in the room.

Su Ning'er looked at him quietly, she believed that King Qing still had a saint in his heart, and he would never look at his imperial nephew as a saint again.

King Qing thought for a long time, sat back on the chair, and said in a deep tone: "Yiniang should know that this king, the sage, and Li Guogong have never been all the way, even with your husband. ”

Although Suning'er has never figured out what King Qing really wants to do, she still knew that he endured humiliation and burden, and also hoped to deal with the Beiya party: "The slave family knows that the imperial uncle never asks about the government, but the imperial uncle and they both have the same wishes, and you and the current saint both have royal blood, these two points cannot be changed." ”

"Not bad, not bad."

King Qing sighed leisurely: "What Yiniang said is good, but Yiniang should also know that Li Guogong has fallen, and this king is the most profitable, even if Wen Jiqing can accuse this king, but it is not easy for him to really want to move this king, so Yiniang came over today to let this king rescue Li Guogong, for the sake of the saint and Li Guogong, or Zhao Sanlang?" ”

"Hehe", Su Ning'er smiled awkwardly: "The slave family naturally hopes that Li Guogong can get out of the way, the clumsy man is just from a humble businessman's family, even if Wen Jiqing is suspicious of him, he will not do anything to him." ”

"Really?"

King Qing looked at her and sneered meaningfully: "Although Zhao Sanlang has no intention of career, this is well known, but why he is unwilling to step into the official career, this is also well known, now sitting on the throne is not someone else, is his best brother, he is a little smart, maybe stepping into the official career, can really do something not necessarily." ”

After thinking about it, King Qing's face became more and more solemn, and he said solemnly: "Don't say anything else, just talk about suppressing the Beiya party, this king thinks that no one in the entire Chang'an City dares to take this step more than him." ”

These words completely made Suninger unable to refute.

Indeed, her husband was reluctant to step into the official career at the beginning, because the Beiya party was involved in the government and made the court miserable, and Zhao Yuanbai was unwilling to flatter the eunuchs and did not want to live in fear, so he would rather be in the business field than enter the office.

King Qing said again: "Lingnan Wufu, what kind of place is that, all kinds of forces are intertwined, even if Zhao Sanlang can really clear the salt affairs, after the fall of Li Guogong, he will be suspicious of Wen Jiqing when he returns to Kyoto, the deputy envoy of salt and iron, and the lifeblood of the economy of our dynasty, will the party of the Northern Ya watch their enemies hold the economic lifeline of the imperial court, and watch the henchmen of the saint grow step by step?" ”

Suning'er didn't know what his intention was in saying these things to herself, but if she called him out today, if she couldn't convince him, she couldn't give up easily.

Looking at King Qing fixedly, Su Ning'er also put on a very determined posture and said: "But the slave family believes that the imperial uncle will not watch Li Guogong and his humble husband being suppressed by Wen Jiqing, the slave family knows that there are some forces behind the imperial uncle, but without Li Guogong's checks and balances, the slave family wants to rely on Ye Xiang alone and is afraid that it will be difficult to shake Wen Jiqing from now on, right?" ”

King Qing's cold handsome face suddenly became less calm and relaxed, and gradually showed a worried look.

Facing Suning'er's clever mouth, he knew that it was difficult to reason with her.

This little girl tried her best to convince herself to help Zhao Yuanbai and Li Guogong, but these high-sounding reasons were not what he really cared about in his heart.

He suddenly held Suning'er's hand excitedly, and said earnestly: "Yiniang, you know, you know that this king never cares about the rights and wrongs of the court, whether it is Li Guogong or Ye Youtong, how they are, this king doesn't care, this king cares about you the most, and you are the only one who cares about this king from beginning to end." ”

Suning'er was so frightened that she quickly broke free from his hands, and said uneasily: "Uncle Huang, you, you don't want to talk nonsense anymore, we, our affairs have passed, I now have the flesh and blood of the Zhao family, I just want to live this life in peace, so, Uncle Huang ......"

"Don't call me Uncle Huang anymore", King Qing was so angry that he immediately interrupted her, and said angrily: "You obviously know that I don't want you to call me that." ”

Suning'er was frightened by the sudden change in his mood, and she trembled and didn't dare to look up at him.

King Qing gritted his teeth and groaned for a while, looked at her quietly, and his eyes slowly softened: "I'm sorry, this king shouldn't have lost such a temper with you, even if you think about him and protect him, but this time I'm afraid Yiniang won't be able to protect him anymore." ”

When Su Ning'er heard this, she couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart, and quickly raised her head and asked urgently, "What does Your Highness mean by this?" ”

King Qing sneered and blinked: "I'm afraid he won't be able to come back this time." ”
