Chapter 309: A Delaying Tactic
Shi Wang knew that this turmoil in the palace had been a long time.
In the letter, she asked Lord Wei why she didn't tell her about this matter earlier, but Lord Wei said that this matter was a matter of foregone conclusion, and she didn't want the princess to worry.
But how could Shi Wang not be worried, he was the palace maid of all ethnic groups and countries, and he was the guard of the palace, and the mastermind behind this, except for General Qin, he really couldn't find anyone else.
Master Wei downplayed this matter, and Shi Wang wanted to emphasize this matter with him.
When it was time to get the letter, Shi Wang stood by the wall and waited quietly.
When the hour came, the brick really moved.
Through the wall, Shi Wang could still hear the soft questioning voice of the man on the outer wall from the vacancy, as if he wondered why there was no letter today.
"I want to see your master." Shi Wang said at this time.
The person outside the wall smiled, listening to the faint voice, it was Master Wei Rin himself!
It's no wonder that these things are very involved after all, and the charges on the back are also heavy, rather than leaving it to a person who is not trusted, it is better to run a few times yourself.
"I wonder why the princess saw me?" Master Wei asked.
Shi Wang's face was solemn, and there was some questioning in his tone: "Why don't you tell me about the two assassinations of the Queen Mother as soon as possible?" Wouldn't it be nice to be able to give advice and block the slightest sign? ”
"I think that the princess doesn't need to know about this matter, things are going on like this, there are his own advantages and disadvantages, but what I choose to see is the good side."
Shi Wang was shocked, and was a little frightened by the indifference in his words: "Do you know who did it?" Or are you involved? ”
"It's not that I'm participating, it's just a few words for someone, just like the princess asked me to do."
"What are you, or you and him, going to do?"
"Of course, if you want the government to be stable, don't make enemies with foreigners. Princess, you are so desperate, for fear that General Qin will be secretly executed one day, aren't you afraid that such a situation will happen? Counting it up, the princess and I are still a good dog. ”
"So you are plotting to assassinate the Queen Mother, just because you want her to go, so that no one can ask for General Qin's life? Have you ever thought about those maids who came from afar, and nearly 100 innocent soldiers in the palace who died tragically? For the sake of a queen mother's life, can you sacrifice so many people? ”
"I thought the princess was a person who knew the big picture." Wei Rin's voice was a little sarcastic and harsh, and he continued: "Compared to the fact that all ethnic countries continue to live amicably and there will be no war, a hundred people are nothing. It is a blessing for them to be able to appease the hearts of all tribes when they die. ”
"But the letter threatening by the Queen Mother has been sent, and those maids are dead, won't it also cause strife?"
"That's not right." Wei Rin said categorically, "Those things are all done by the Queen Mother, as long as the Queen Mother is dead, it can also soothe the hearts of all ethnic groups." And you, princess, if I'm not mistaken, you're a princess of two countries, and you have the status and the ability to calm their anger, aren't you? ”
Shi Wang's heart swelled, but he didn't expect it to be the idea of beating a prince and a courtier.
Yes, he has always advocated pacification, not deterrence advocated by the Queen Mother, and if he can be in charge of the government, he will indeed improve in this regard.
"Since you said that I need to come forward, then I now order you to stop your plan to assassinate the Queen Mother and find another way, can you agree?"
"It's too late!" Wei Rin said categorically, "The Queen Mother's anger has reached its peak, and I am afraid that in the next second, she will kill General Qin regardless of everything." I could not allow such an accident to happen, and therefore, it was impossible to listen to the princess's supposed expediency. Sorry! ”
The brick was plugged up from the outside, and before it could fit perfectly, Shi Wang heard a word.
"Princess, I advise you not to act rashly, otherwise, even you will not be a very good choice."
This sentence contains countless rebellious meanings, but Shi Wang can't argue with him.
The first is that he has no chance to spread the word again, and the second is that he is in his current situation, he can't even get out of the house, where is the capital to confront them.
However, Wei Qin's murderous intentions towards the Queen Mother were already visible, and the situation was a little clearer.
Now is the time to race against time, neither let the Queen Mother kill General Qin, nor let Qin Wei kill the Queen Mother!
In such a situation, what can you do!
Thinking about it, Shi Wang didn't know how to start.
The most important thing is to be able to get out of the house.
She asked the soldiers guarding the door to see the Queen Mother, but they were unmoved, thinking that they had already received an order, no matter what she said or who she wanted to see, they could not meet their requests.
Sure enough, the one who can still connect with the outside world is the wall to the north.
She was ruthless, and agreed to Wei Rin's request.
"Aren't you trying to use my power to achieve a counterbalance? Okay, I promise, whatever you want to do to the Queen Mother, I won't ask anymore. I just want to have power, and it is not enough to have the help of the two of you, but also the support of the ministers. You can't do that. ”
"The princess is too worried, what the Queen Mother has done recently has already made the ministers lose confidence, and the call for you to return to the court is getting heavier and heavier. As long as the princess agrees to rule, they will have no other objections. ”
"I think you're thinking too simply!" Shi Wang snorted lightly, with an unspoken majesty in his tone.
Listening to the momentum of her speech, even Wei Rin was slightly stunned.
"How great is the matter of government, how can it be so hasty! The queen mother has the order of the first king, and she should be the king of the acting government. But what am I, the daughter of an outsider, married, just the blessing of the first king, and I have a surname. At the end of the day, I'm just an outsider. Where do you think I got the qualifications to sit in the position of acting king! Such a high position is a rebellion and a violation of precedent, and you may be able to see the power of it! ”
What she said is not wrong, but she still has the edict of the former king in her hand, even if the position of the acting king of the queen mother is abolished, it is also justified.
But she couldn't take it out.
I couldn't bear to take it out before, but now I can't.
Wei Qin already had a killing intent towards Empress Dai, if they knew about the existence of this edict and had no worries, they would definitely speed up the pace of assassinating Empress Dai.
This edict is his own superior book, and it is also the queen mother's amulet!
She must not let these two know about the existence of the edict!
On the other hand, Wei Rin was stopped by her repeated questions, and suddenly felt that this matter was inappropriate.
If the Queen Mother is finally removed, and the person acting for the government is not Princess Yuanping, but a person who is more reluctant to see the peace of the hundred races than the Queen Mother, it will be empty.
Wei Rin's understanding of this princess seems to have deepened again.
"Then in the opinion of the princess, what should be done about this?"
Seeing that he finally began to ask for his opinion, Shi Wang breathed a sigh of relief.
