Chapter 014: Take the initiative
Chu Ci's proposal was not accepted by everyone, and immediately after King Hulian, another dark-skinned tall middle-aged man questioned: "Why should Prince Chu be so troublesome if he wants to include the treasures of King Qinglian in the treasury?" The emperor has died, and this demon girl has no one to protect her, so what can she do if she directly robs her gold and silver and burns her palace? The people of the world hate this demon girl, and what kind of contract we signed with her politely here, it's ridiculous! ”
As soon as this person's words came out, the other four people echoed each other, only a middle-aged man with a sword and an old man with a serious expression did not speak, and their eyes were aimed at Wen Moshu, who had always been silent.
"In the past, the four princes proposed to punish the demons and the Qing monarch, if the king is not mistaken, the second prince came forward to stop it at that time, and this matter attracted a lot of criticism from the ministers of the court, this time if the second prince protects the Qinglian King again, I am afraid that the civil and military officials will not agree, right?" The old man with white hair stared at Wen Mo and said lightly.
Wen Moshu originally wanted to hand over the task of explanation to Chu Ci, but now someone asked him directly about having to answer, he pondered for a long time, and nodded lightly: "When my father was alive, he favored King Qinglian, and he killed the loyal ministers who spoke out many times, and I stopped it in order to protect the fourth brother at that time." Now that King Qinglian has lost power, I also know that there are countless people who want to kill her to vent their hatred, but has King Dingyuan considered the pros and cons? With a little thought, you should understand what I mean. ”
This old man is the king of Dingyuan, Wen Moqing's father? Yan Liwu moved his gaze to the old man and quietly let out a sigh.
It seems that Wen Moqing did not come with King Dingyuan, which means that King Dingyuan may not know that she is a stand-in, probably Wen Moqing has not had time to rush back to the imperial capital to explain. However, there are some details that make Yan Liwu feel strange and puzzled - the crime of killing does not vary depending on his identity, since Wen Moqing is the son of King Dingyuan, isn't he afraid of implicating King Dingyuan when he kills King Qinglian? And his identity is also a mystery, Yin Junbai calls him the young master, Bi Sheng calls him senior brother, it sounds like what kind of sect organization, could it be that Wen Moqing has a second identity in addition to the prince of Dingyuan? So which one did he appear as the warmth and ink of the merciless bloodbath of the Qinglian Palace?
Too many doubts made Yan Liwu feel a sense of exhaustion, but those people refused to let her go, and their malicious eyes always attacked unscrupulously.
"I have always advocated the rule of law, and in the current chaotic situation, we must be more cautious and not make the same mistakes again. The emperor did not depose the throne of the Qinglian King before his death, and the new emperor was not selected, at this time, the punishment of the Qinglian King is tantamount to lynching. King Dingyuan stroked his long beard, his frost-dyed white eyebrows furrowed, "This king agrees with the second prince's approach, first take back the power and property of the Qinglian King, and detain him in the Qinglian Palace before the new emperor is elected and disposed of, which is reasonable and reasonable." ”
King Dingyuan seems to have quite prestige in a group of people, just now the few people who let the people who want to deal with the Qinglian King directly stop silent, you look at me, I look at you, no one dares to raise objections, but King Hulian snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction: "The second brother is used to doing things in a proper manner, rigid and inflexible, plus there are some cunning people around the second prince who are plotting against him, and he can say absurdity as rigorous, so what can those of us who have worked hard for Dayuan all their lives say?" said that he imprisoned the Qinglian King in the Qinglian Palace, but who knows what he actually did? And those money and jewels, this king doesn't believe that King Qinglian will hand them all over, and I'm afraid only God knows who the rest will fall into! ”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became delicate, and Yan Li felt that various forces were wrestling in the air, especially over how to deal with her, which unexpectedly caused a dispute among everyone, and there was a faint smell of copper.
In the final analysis, King Hulian was worried about who would own the treasures of the Qinglian King, so he was unwilling to leave this matter to Wen Moshu.
If people are greedy, they will have flaws, and if they have flaws, they can break them, and their worries gradually calmed down, and their shrewd eyes saw a glimmer of light from King Hulian. Taking a deep breath to cheer up his own courage, Yan Liwu walked in front of Chu Ci in the surprised eyes of everyone, raised his head slightly, and deliberately put on a high-spirited appearance: "I...... The wealth in the hands of this king is far more than what you see, if you want to say that the priceless things, this king has collected a lot over the years, but no one has ever known about it. ”
A sigh came from among the crowd, and King Hulian stared at him fiercely, obviously, these words moved King Hulian's heart.
Yan Liwu clearly heard the sound of Chu Ci gasping behind him, paused to stabilize his rapid heartbeat, and the act of pretending to be the King of Qinglian continued: "The emperor has long expected that there will be this day, and he is afraid that you will be unfavorable to this king, so he secretly rewarded this king with countless rare treasures, which are far more valuable than you know. Of course, the part that the king promised to give to the second prince is not all, and the remaining treasures will only reveal the hiding place to the people who protect the king after the king's safety is guaranteed...... Those treasures should be regarded as the king's funeral goods, and I think a few adults won't mind. ”
The inner hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at each other, and no one could see through which one the Qinglian King was singing. It was not only the seven important ministers who were disturbed by the unexpected situation, but also Chu Ci and Wen Moshu. Seeing that the woman in front of him was lying without changing her face, Chu Ci didn't dare to laugh if she wanted to laugh, and quietly stretched out her finger to write two words on Yan Li's back.
.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone was at a loss, Yan Liwu turned his head and glared at Chu Ci, and the painful feeling of being bound by the rope turned into annoyance, and all of them were thrown away from his eyes, Chu Ci shrugged his shoulders as if he didn't see it, and still stood up straight without moving.
He knew that this was to save his life, but he couldn't expose it, and that would be no good for anyone.
The first to break the silence was still King Hulian, and after coughing to attract everyone's attention, King Hulian licked his dry lips: "Gold and silver treasures are things outside the body, and they have always been the source of bad things since ancient times, but the war in the north of my Great Abyss does need a lot of gold and silver to fill in the war for many years, if there is a treasure hidden by the Qinglian King, it is really ...... It's ......."
Probably didn't think of the wording and was in a hurry to come out, but the third prince was stuck for a long time and couldn't say why, but the man next to him with thief eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes answered fluently: "This is called making the best use of things, it's really a clever trick!" Trick! ”
A group of fools have been tricked around by others, and they have clever tricks and clever tricks, and this kind of intelligent people are simply a disaster for the country and the people. Yan Li suddenly met his eyes when he slandered the fat Hulian Wang, and before she could retract her gaze, King Hulian had already taken the first step to dodge, and the panic in his eyes left a clear afterimage in Yan Li's worried heart.
King Hulian ...... Afraid of her?
She couldn't tell if her feelings were accurate, and when she thought she was going to listen to a long period of Rory's long-winded deliberations, her fingertips suddenly tingled, and something was pressed and taken down.
Turning around in surprise, I saw Chu Ci shaking the silk cloth in his hand, and Yin Hong's guidance and faint smile were impressive.
"The contract has been signed, several adults, should we send the Qinglian King back to the Qinglian Palace?"
