As a person who has been on the throne for many years, the emperor's judgment on some things is much more accurate than Lu Qingyi, and his guess will naturally be grounded.

Although Lu Qingyi had this idea in his heart before, it was just his own guess. The emperor stroked his beard with his hand before he spoke: "Whether it is from the perspective of reason and ability, I think it is very likely that this matter was done by Zhou Guo. ”

"Strength? Now the two envoys have not woken up, Your Majesty, how do you know what their strength is? Lu Qingyi was a little confused.

The emperor sighed, leaning against the wall on the other side of the bed, his health has become very poor now: "If the two envoys can come to our Chu country, they must bring more people." One is to protect their own safety, and the other is to show our Chu State that they are also powerful. ”

"It is precisely because of this reason that the people they bring must not be bad." The emperor continued: "In this way, it will definitely take a lot of people to be able to hunt them down and force Luo Han and Ruofeng to such a point. ”

Lu Qingyi nodded lightly: "So only two countries can have this strength." ”

"No, only Zhou Guo has this strength. The strength of the Zhou State and ours is comparable, we have Chu Han, and if we can be a little higher than them, they are naturally anxious in their hearts, as for the Wu State, they have always been weak, and they don't want to cause more trouble at all. ”

The emperor shook his head gently: "If we can't afford to provoke us, we can't afford to provoke Zhou Guo, all they can do is to watch Zhou Guo fight with us and reap the benefits of the fisherman themselves." ”

The emperor's analysis was very accurate, and Lu Qingyi could only say one word in his heart after hearing this. He pondered for a while before he raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty, are you planning to send troops to the Zhou Kingdom?" ”

"Then aren't we following the wish of the Wu Kingdom? We fought with Zhou Guo, no matter which side won or which side lost, it was Wu Guo's benefit. The emperor shook his head.

Lu Qingyi was confused when he heard this: "Since the State of Zhou is not willing to fight with the State of Chu, then why did they send troops to deal with Chu Han's people?" Why did you let Chu get this handle? Could it be just that the handover ceremony between Chu Han and Chu State could not be carried out smoothly? ”

But Zhou Guo should also know that even if Ruofeng and Luo Han were seriously injured this time, the handover ceremony would still continue to be completed, after all, Chu Han was not just the two of them.

"So that brings us to another important issue." When the emperor said this, he suddenly sighed. His eyes were full of hatred for iron and steel: "This thing can't be done by Zhou Guo himself, there must be our people involved." ”

"What are you talking about......" The emperor's words were not finished, he had already guessed who it was, but he felt that it should not be, and for the second prince, there was no benefit in doing so. And if the emperor knows about it, he will definitely blame him again.

The emperor shook his head and didn't say anything more, just waved his hand at Lu Qingyi: "Okay, you go back first, I already know about this matter." Someone will pass by tomorrow. ”

"Your Majesty ......" Lu Qingyi was a little reluctant, he felt that there was no explanation for this matter, and he couldn't put it aside in his heart.

The emperor waved his hand lightly: "Some things are not so easy to explain. Don't gamble with humanity. ”

When he returned to the bookstore, Lu Qingyi still didn't understand, why did the second prince do this? Could it be that he wanted to rebel directly?

Lu Qingyi's heart chuckled. Conspiracy...... What a horrible word. But this is not impossible, if the second prince learns that the emperor does not mean to pass on the throne to him, in this case, he is very likely to do this kind of thing. 202 eBooks

Walking upstairs in a daze, Shen Xi was now sitting at the top of the stairs with Fu Chuan waiting for him to come back. Hearing the sound downstairs, Shen Xi stood up violently and said, "Luo Han woke up just now." ”

Lu Qingyi woke up from his immersed thoughts, he nodded and said slowly, "Did he tell you anything?" ”

Shen Xi told Lu Qingyi the news he had gotten from Luo Han's mouth one by one, only to see that his face became heavy at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Did the emperor say anything in the palace?" After saying all this, Shen Xi saw that Lu Qingyi's face was really wrong, and she hurriedly asked.

"The emperor said that this thing may have been done by Zhou Guo." Lu Qingyi didn't hide it, and told Shen Xi directly.

Shen Xi covered his mouth with his hand, before that, they didn't know how many people were sent out on the other side. How could the emperor directly guess that it was Zhou Guo who did it.

Lu Qingyi didn't tell her the emperor's speculation, but just sighed: "The involvement of this matter is always greater than we imagined, and it may involve who our emperor of Chu is." ”

"Is it that serious?" Shen Xi's current mood can no longer be described as a shock: "Then should we tell Chang Yi about this?" This matter has a lot to do with him. ”

Lu Qingyi nodded: "Naturally, I want to tell him that the emperor will send someone over tomorrow, and he should come over with him at that time." ”

It's late at night, but Shen Xi doesn't feel sleepy, maybe because there is something in his heart, or because he has passed the point in time when he stayed up late.

Sighing softly, Shen Xi continued to draw the drawings. Seeing Shen Xi's situation, Lu Qingyi said: "Don't worry about these things, your body hasn't fully recovered yet." Let's go get some sleep! ”

"I don't really want to sleep right now." Shen Xi shook his head: "You said that we have just been stable for a long time, how can this kind of thing happen again?" ”

"The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and the position of the crown prince has not yet been decided, that is to say, everyone has the possibility of inheritance. Naturally, the competition between the princes has become much fiercer. Lu Qingyi sighed softly. I am afraid that this situation will definitely continue until the emperor does not die and the new emperor does not inherit.

In fact, only these people can feel this kind of panic, in the eyes of ordinary people, naturally they can't feel it, in their eyes, the state of Chu has always been a country and a people's peace.

This night, Shen Xi didn't go to sleep in the end. The sky gradually became brighter, and several people came to the bookstore early in the morning, and one of them was Lu Qingyi's acquaintance Liu Congwen.

The expression on Liu Congwen's face was very serious, and before the two could say a word of greeting, they heard him ask out loud: "The emperor asked me to come over and help you deal with this matter." Have the two messengers woken up now? ”

Luo Han hasn't woken up since he slept last night. Lu Qingyi shook his head gently: "Their injuries are a bit serious. ”

"Just a few of you coming over to help?" Lu Qingyi asked with some doubts.
