Chapter 372: A Word

Emperor Jingwen waited quietly.

Above the main hall, no one knew what he was thinking.

Shao Zhiqiu was also very quiet, she didn't know what the situation outside the palace was, but after all, she had been preparing for so long, and she believed that her father and eldest brother would not let her down.

Under the main hall, Qi Ruichen knelt in the center, his face expressionless.

"Let's all get out." Emperor Jing Wen suddenly said to Shao Zhiqiu and the others.

Shao Zhiqiu followed Prince Lian and Qi Wu and walked towards the outside of the main hall.

When passing by Qi Ruichen's side, Shao Zhiqiu looked over.

She wanted to take a look, what else could this person do to this step of the field?

Panic and restlessness.

Except for being frightened, Shao Zhiqiu didn't see anything in these eyes.

There is no unwillingness, no loss, and no despair.

Why?

Suddenly, Shao Zhiqiu's expression tightened, she rushed to Qi Ruichen, and directly stretched out her hand to Qi Ruichen's face.

"Stop!"

"Bold! What are you doing! ”

Prince Lian, who was closer to Shao Zhiqiu, saw Shao Zhiqiu's sudden move, and hurriedly stopped.

Emperor Jingwen also shouted angrily.

But what happened next left them dumbfounded.

Shao Zhiqiu's hand was holding a human skin mask, and at this time, above the main hall, where was Qi Ruichen kneeling?

So, what about Qi Ruichen?

Under the anger, Emperor Jingwen had no regard for the royal face, and directly ordered a thorough investigation of Kyoto.

Before the palace changed, the capital had been banned, and now it is being thoroughly investigated from door to door, and everyone in the capital is in danger.

But Shao Zhiqiu knew that it was too late.

If you can think of replacing yourself with another person, then you can naturally think of replacing yourself with another person.

At this time, Qi Ruichen was afraid that he had already jumped into the sea.

But where will he go? Shao Zhiqiu couldn't help but think about it.

It's a real headache to have such an opponent!

Obviously, in his opinion, it is already an ending without suspense, but he still stays behind!

And with the interrogation of 'Qi Ruichen', this palace mutiny has nothing to do with Qi Ruichen, it is completely his own conspiracy, kidnapping Qi Ruichen, and pretending to be his palace mutiny to usurp power.

Hehe, anyone with a discerning eye knows how ridiculous he said, but now, Qi Ruichen's life and death are gone, and there are people who are willing to bear this responsibility, which can be regarded as an explanation to the people of the world.

A bloody coup d'Γ©tat turned into a farce, and Emperor Jingwen's physical condition is now very bad, so he handed over the government to the crown prince and summoned He Luozi to the palace to accompany him.

Shao Zhiqiu returned to the Zhenguo Mansion.

Zhen Guogong sat on a rattan chair in the garden, quietly looking at the scenery of the garden.

Shao Zhiqiu stepped forward, "Grandfather, this time, my granddaughter didn't do it well... ”

Thinking of Qi Ruichen's disappearance, Shao Zhiqiu's heart was as disgusting and angry as seeing a fly.

Zhen Guogong shook his head with a kind smile.

"You've done a good job, don't be too yourself."

"Grandfather."

"Knowing what happened this time, where was your negligence?" Zhen Guogong asked with a smile.

Shao Zhiqiu shook her head.

"You have always regarded the Four Princes as opponents, constantly laying out, and you have used all the resources very well, but there is one thing that you have never done."

Shao Zhiqiu looked at Zhen Guogong suspiciously, and Zhen Guogong didn't wait for her to ask again, and continued.

"You've never tried to live for yourself."

"From the very beginning, you thought about the problem from the perspective of confrontation with the Four Princes, but you never thought about it, if you were the Fourth Prince, with his character, what would he do next, and how to arrange it?"

Speaking of this, Shao Zhiqiu suddenly realized!

That's right, from the very beginning, asking Luo Hu to follow Qi Ruichen as an undercover agent, designing the rebellion against the silver ring, and letting Qinghuai do a series of things, all based on her knowing what he would do, not what she speculated he would do!

In this way, when what happened in this life became more and more different from the previous life, she lost the ability to predict in advance, although she knew Qi Ruichen's purpose, but she didn't think about what he was most likely to do, and with his deceitful character, what kind of follow-up he would keep.

From the previous life, he disposed of Shao Zhiqiu as soon as he succeeded, and later assassinated the crown prince and assassinated Qi Wu several times, he was able to retreat with his whole body, you can know that he never takes risks with his own life, why did he think that he would break his previous style of acting this time?

So from the very beginning, he thought about it, and it became that he didn't have to say anything, if he failed...

Where would he be now?

Although that impostor has resisted all the guilt, even the death of the prince and the assassination of Qi Wu several times, he still will not pin his safety on whether he can get away with it!

"So he had already escaped from the capital before he acted, just in case?"

Zhen Guogong nodded and said.

"That's right, so he's probably 'hostage' in a state capital now, and there must be a garrison there."

"You're saying he's not dead yet?"

"If a person like the Fourth Prince wants to die, it will be when he really dies."

Shao Zhiqiu was a little dazed.

The world is so big, she doesn't even know where to look for it.

"You don't have to worry about this matter, this is already the last retreat of the four princes, the imperial court will naturally take the matter of someone kidnapping and pretending to be the fourth prince for the sake of royal face, and when the time comes, as long as he survives until the Holy Guest Heaven and then returns to the court, as long as it is properly handled, he will still be the hottest potato in Qi Wu. At that time, it was the time of urgency. ”

That's right, when Emperor Jingwen is gone, no matter how Qi Wu cleans him up, he will be truthful, and the new emperor will ascend the throne, so he really doesn't have to do such a thing before he has a solid foundation, he can only be offered high, and then he will be like a hedgehog, and he can't touch it.

Zhen Guogong couldn't help but smile when he looked at Shao Zhiqiu's sad face.

"That's it! Look at what worries you, the wrinkles on your face are almost catching up with my bad old man! You might as well put it another way. With you, a boudoir woman born in the back house, how difficult is it to force a prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty to be like this? So where is the average person who can do it? ”

"Grandfather, don't comfort your granddaughter, granddaughter regrets it now."

"What do you have to regret, a few times you already know the personality of the four princes, but in the end, you know the face but don't know the heart, and then the four princes are the mind of the seven skimmings, you can't guess, what's the problem? Grandfather said this to you today, just to teach you a truth, things in the world are never the same, no matter what you do, you must be like the four princes, plan in advance, and leave a way out for yourself. If it is too rigid, it is easy to break. You still have a long way to go in your life, and when you get to that position, you will understand what I am saying today. ”

Zhen Guogong thought about it, and finally sighed and said again.

"In the past, my grandfather wanted you to open your heart and accept the prince, but now he wants to persuade you not to give your feelings wholeheartedly."

"Grandfather?" Shao Zhiqiu looked at Zhen Guogong in surprise.

"Human feelings are the most wonderful, but men's feelings are different from women's. Women in this world may not know what their husband's surname is and what they look like before marriage, but once they get married, they all regard their husbands as their heavens and wholeheartedly plan for their husbands' families, which is nothing. As long as you balance your own interests with the interests of your husband's family, you can live well in your husband's family, but most of such a woman may not have much affection for her husband! ”
