Chapter 771: Northern Kingdom Elegy (15)

"Wang Shun's descendants are unwilling to be lonely and have always wanted to touch the cake of power, but Wang Shun adheres to the concept of being only loyal to the current emperor and has always suppressed the ambitions of his children and grandchildren."

In Liu Fuzhong, Xu Rui said to Li Kuang with a calm face.

Li Kuang sighed: "It is conceivable that Wang Shun holds the power of the inner court, but his children and grandchildren cannot get the corresponding preferential treatment, they must be resentful, and the more ruthlessly he suppresses at this time, the greater the backlash of his descendants will be."

Coupled with the fact that Wang Shun was usually unable to leave the palace and neglected to discipline his children and grandchildren, this backlash was not discovered and eradicated in time, and finally put them on a road of no return. ”

Xu Rui nodded: "At first, Wang Shun's descendants were only ambitious, but they had no way to advance, because Wang Shun was cautious and had already blocked their thoughts.

But after all the calculations, he didn't calculate that such a thing would happen in the Holy Mansion, and that Prince Bao would take risks for Queen Wen and do the stupid thing of changing the tanuki for the prince.

When the anxious Prince Bao met the descendants of Wang Shun, who were eager to ascend to the throne, a deformed political alliance was quickly born.

Wang Shun's descendants want to learn from the dragon's work, and Prince Bao also needs Wang Shun to help him open the joints in the palace and successfully complete the good show of changing the tanuki for the prince.

By the time Wang Shun found out, the child had already become the eldest son of the saint, and the raw rice was cooked and cooked, and Wang Shun could only be kidnapped to the saint's chariot even if he was unwilling, and there was no room for repentance.

But this matter is still too risky, Wang Shun had to keep a hand for himself, so he personally created a fire, burned the old mansion in Nanhua Lane to the ground, except for a few members of the lineage, let all the insiders go to Huangquan with secrets.

This move is endless, but when the pervasive dark chess is born, all the secrets will be as obvious as directly exposed to the sun, and despite Wang Shun's efforts, he was still secretly discovered by the dark chess.

Dark Chess was afraid that there was a lot to be done about this secret, so he kept it a secret, and waited until the critical moment to deliberately send this secret to Hu Miao.

Now I don't know whether Hu Miao was out of curiosity after getting the news, or thought that he had found an opportunity to replace Wang Shun in advance, in short, he began to investigate the matter, and was therefore noticed by Wang Shun.

So Hu Miao must die.

It was none other than Wang Shun himself, who trained him with his own hands!

The reason why Wang Shun was so angry on the day Hu Miao was killed was not because Hu Miao's death hit Wang Shun in the face, but because Wang Shun knew that this matter was concocted by someone with a heart to coerce him, and Hu Miao was just a pawn to be used.

Wang Shun was forced to kill the successor he had cultivated for decades, and his anger, grievances and regret can be imagined.

And the reason why he agreed with me to investigate the cause of Hu Miao's death was that on the one hand, he was afraid that covering it up too much would arouse my suspicions, and on the other hand, he really resented the secret chess that revealed this secret to Hu Miao.

It is easy to understand his attitude of fully cooperating and having scruples at that time, and not being able to say it directly.

It's a pity that I didn't know anything about the secret of the old mansion in Nanhua Lane at that time, and it was impossible for Wang Shun to tell me this fateful news, so we couldn't guess Wang Shun's true intentions at all, but excluded him as a murderer from the beginning, and missed the best opportunity to counteract! ”

"It's not your fault, who would have thought it would be so complicated?"

Li Kuang was shocked when he heard this, but he had to comfort Xu Rui.

But now it is futile to say anything, and the situation in the palace is really worrying.

"According to what you say, the Shengshang's balancing strategy has been completely bankrupt, and the people around him have been forced to fall to King Yu, and those prepared backhands may also lose their effectiveness immediately, and Great Wei is in danger!"

Li Kuang seemed to have predicted the future fate of Great Wei, and said worriedly.

Xu Rui let out a long sigh and said, "Yes, the Holy Lord is keen to play with all forces like a chess piece, create a political balance and let the power always be in his own hands.

But when he gradually loses control of the overall situation without realizing it, the fragile balance system will be completely broken, and he himself will become a pawn of others like those forces controlled by him.

The saint sang a good show for a lifetime, but the last scene was sung badly after all, and if it was not good, maybe the centuries-old foundation of the Great Wei Dynasty would be ruined. ”

"Then we can't do anything about it, right?"

Li Kuang leaned in front of Xu Rui and asked anxiously.

Xu Rui shook his head gloomily: "The collapsing balance will not collapse overnight, so far, only the link in the palace has failed, the Apocalypse Guard must still be under control, I don't have military power, what can I do?"

What's more, even if it is too late to regain the military power of the Apocalypse Guard now, King Yu and King Su have been in the palace for too long, if something really happens, maybe it has happened now! ”

"Alas!"

Li Kuang smashed his fist in his palm and said angrily: "We finally found the truth, but why can't we do anything, we can only watch Dawei fall into danger." ”

Xu Rui smiled bitterly and said: "For today's plan, I can only wait quietly and gamble with God." ”

"Bet? What to bet on? ”

Li Kuang was puzzled.

Xu Rui said: "Of course, King Yu himself is not a dark chess, or he is not deeply controlled by the dark chess.

King Yu and King Su grew up since childhood, and their relationship is very deep, if King Yu is not trapped in the dark chess and can't extricate himself, maybe things will take a turn for the better.

Based on my understanding of King Yu, he is still a person who values feelings, and King Su may be seven or eight points sure that he can pull King Yu back from the abyss, and at the worst King Su should be able to retreat from the palace.

As long as King Su can come back alive, there will still be a chance to think about this matter, take 10,000 steps back, even if King Su has no intention of competing for the throne with King Yu, with so many years of friendship, I also intend to keep him an idle prince for a lifetime, and Dawei still has a glimmer of hope!

In addition, although I didn't find out the truth before, I just laid out an idle chess piece in case of emergency, and I didn't expect that it might play a key role now, but that's all we can do now. ”

"Oh? Did you prepare beforehand? What preparation? ”

Li Kuang seemed to have caught a glimmer of vitality and asked excitedly.

Xu Rui shook his head and said, "It's best not to use my preparation, otherwise the worst will happen." ”

"Isn't that hopeless?"

Li Kuang sat down on the chair dejectedly when he heard this, as if he had been drained of all his strength in an instant.

"Father!"

In the south study, King Su rushed to Emperor Hongwei's side desperately, and hugged Emperor Hongwei, who was covered in blood, in his arms.

Like a puppet, King Yu subconsciously took a step to the side, as if he couldn't face King Su, so he could only bow his head.

Emperor Hongwei has been attacked by the virus for a long time, and he is already about to run out of oil, and he has just experienced such a big change, and finally was stabbed in the heart by King Yu, and it is time to die.

He trembled and opened his arms, used all his strength to hold King Su into his arms, and secretly stuffed the gold medal hidden in his palm to King Su.

Then he held his last breath and muttered in King Su's ear, "Let's go...... Come on...... Take it...... Holding my gold medal...... Go...... Go to Xu Rui, he can ...... with a gold medal will be able to regain control of the Apocalypse...... Protect...... Keep you safe! ”

After finally saying this, Emperor Hongwei suddenly stiffened, and finally swallowed his last breath.

Emperor Hongwei, the emperor who reigned for 20 years, single-handedly pushed the Great Wei to the peak, and almost completed the great cause of dominating the world, died at the hands of his own son, and when he died, he was seriously ill and betrayed his relatives.

"Father! Yes!! ”

Realizing that Emperor Hongwei had died, King Su screamed in pain, and could no longer hold back his cry.

The real grief and pain were not hypocritical, and moved everyone present.

No matter how big the grudge is, Emperor Hongwei is finally the brother and comrade-in-arms of Prince Bao, and Wang Shun has served the master for twenty years.

Under the heart-rending cry, the faces of the two flashed indescribably complicated.

King Yu walked behind King Su step by step, looking cautious like a child who had made a mistake.

"Sixth, listen to my explanation......"

King Yu whispered, and his palm lightly rested on King Su's shoulder, as if King Su had comforted King Yu before entering this door.

But the moment King Yu's palm touched King Su's shoulder, King Su broke free from King Yu's hand like an electric shock and took a big step back.

"Old Sixth ......"

King Yu's heart ached, and his already chaotic heart became even more terrified, he was afraid of losing this brother who had fought with him since childhood, and he couldn't imagine that he would become a loner.

But King Su witnessed the scene of him killing the king and killing his father, how could he really act as if nothing had happened?

"Why?"

King Su asked the same question as Emperor Yu and Emperor Hongwei before.

But the moment he heard this question, Yuwang stiffened and didn't know how to answer.
