Chapter 296: Stirring into Troubled Waters
Ning Ze spent his days in his own palace......
He had been back from Qi for about a few days.
However, Qi Shu said that he would write a letter back, but no one who had not sent the letter came to his palace for a long time.
Even his own county lord's mansion sent people to inquire every day, but there was no news.
Ning Ze couldn't help but regret it very much in his heart, he had already known that he wouldn't agree to let her go to Zhao Country with Zhao Huanting, but now it's okay, there is no news from both of them.
Although he knew that it was him who Qi Shu wanted now, he was not worried that Qi Shu, who was firm-hearted, would be abducted by Zhao Huanting, but he was worried that if Zhao Huanting locked up Qi Shu, where would he go to find someone?
also blamed himself for believing in Qi Shu too much, and thought that nothing would happen.
But now she can't wait for letters every day, and who knows what happened to her.
It's too slow, the carriages and horses are so slow, and he should stay by her side.
Ning Ze came back to rest for a few days, preparing to write down all the itinerary of Qi in the next few days and then report it to His Majesty.
What made him feel very comforted was that although he had experienced Ji Xue's plot of power and usurpation, there were no big waves in the court of Wei, and the most important thing was that Ji Nan did not act arbitrarily.
Liu Guogong also came back from outside, and in time to maintain order in the court together with other ministers.
Although no one knows what happened to Ji Xue to the outside world, he knows the fluctuations in the palace and the eyeliner placed by everyone in all aspects.
Therefore, Ji Xue must not be able to hide this matter.
Even Ning Ze, who was far away in the Qi Kingdom, knew about these things, could these ministers in the court not know?
These are not the main points of the matter, the main thing is that they still care about the thoughts of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
After all, the king's heart is unpredictable, but his favorite daughter is the first to covet the throne, which is a big blow to Yan Moben.
In this case, it is inevitable that Ji Nan will also have a certain sense of jealousy.
They have not forgotten that Ji Nan, as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, has long reached the age when he can inherit the throne, but His Majesty has not asked Wang Wei to return it to him.
Old Prince Ji Ci never mentioned it, so no one dared to urge.
However, this is always a problem to take out at any time.
It is impossible for them to force His Majesty to abdicate, especially now that the Wei State is thriving and becoming stronger and stronger.
If there were any accidents, the development of Wei might have to go back more than ten years.
Therefore, everyone did not dare to act rashly, and only dared to watch the fire from the other side.
Because when they went to the court recently, they all found that the relationship between His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seemed to have become a little delicate.
In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince always looked respectful, or showed a very close and respectful appearance.
But most of the time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince always looked at His Majesty with a slight daz.
They didn't dare to say, and of course they didn't dare to ask.
The news of the assassination of Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan, in the state of Qi came back, causing a commotion in the court.
It seems that every time King Guanghan has an accident, he can cause a shock in the court.
So for a while, the crowd put all their attention on Ning Ze's body, and temporarily avoided the embarrassing situation of His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Everyone's attention was on how to send people, how many people to send and where to send people to rescue Ning Ze.
But how could they know that a few days later, Ning Ze would rush back quickly.
There is no need for them to study at all, and the prince himself has already brought enough people.
So when Ning Ze came back, when they found that there was nothing to do, they put all their attention on Qi Guo.
Because people from all countries have been attacked to varying degrees, the ministers in the court thought that Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan, was murdered because of the persecution of the Qi State.
So they issued articles one after another to denounce the Qi State, meaning to accuse the Qi State of having bad intentions and persecuting Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan.
In short, no matter what excuse or reason, they don't want to face any more things related to His Majesty or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The current court, although it seems to be extremely stable and orderly.
But under this stable and stable order, you can still see the undercurrent surging, at least the people in the court are divided into two factions, one is on His Majesty's side, and the other is on the side of His Royal Highness the Prince.
However, this faction is still secretly in the shadows.
On the one hand, there are ministers represented by the surname Ji, and on the other hand, there are ministers represented by the surname Yan.
They are each representing their own interests.
In fact, it is also about the world of Wei, whether the surname Ji or the surname is Yan.
After all, this is the world that Ji Wei has beaten down, but in recent years, the Ji family has been secretly suppressed a lot by Yanmo, and the more those who want to be strong, the more the Ji family is the most suppressed.
Ji Ci Lao Wang didn't know for what reason, so he ignored this matter, and once pushed his relationship with the Ji family to an extremely tense point.
Many people wonder if the old prince Ji Ci has already colluded with Yanmo, and then plotted to seize the world of the Ji family.
Otherwise, for what reason did Ji Nan succeed to the throne?
The Qin State launched a campaign against the Qi State......
The court was divided again, and they put aside the things that were going to go out for the time being.
These great gods are no different from those wall grass, and they pour wherever the wind blows.
Because the Qin State rushed from the north to the south to fight, it was said that it was only for the Qi State.
But when the tiger is out of the cage, who knows which one he pounced on?
It's not that no one understands the truth of dead lips and cold teeth, and it's not that people are worried about the sky here, but that they are prepared for danger in times of peace.
Because no one knows whether the army of Qin will set foot on the territory of Wei.
Or after they conquered the Qi country, the stronger one among the countries was the Qi country, so the remaining small countries, did he not have a little restless mind?
How long was Wei founded? If it weren't for the rich enough family foundation of the previous dynasty, it would probably not be possible for this Wei country to become a climate in a short period of time.
Even now, in terms of force, it is definitely not as strong as the Qin State, which exercises day and night.
Some soldiers didn't want to be soldiers in front of them, so they went home to farm.
And now there is a shortage of generals and soldiers, and I haven't seen an outstanding talent come out for several years.
So if you really want to fight at that time, it is estimated that you will not have the strength to fight back in front of the Qin State.
Now some ministers began to complain again.
If he had been able to accept Qi Guo's suggestion and form an alliance, Qin State would not have acted so rashly.
But it's not because he acted against Guanghan King Ning Ze first, and they denounced it later.
It was just a denunciation, and no other decisions were made.
However, the Qin State organized an army to come out.
This has to make one suspect that they were prepared early in the morning.
If this is the case, it means that the Qin State has long intended to conquer the Central Plains.
In the past, the Qin State had been lying in the north, and the slightest sound was not revealed.
Everyone's evaluation of the Qin State has always been described as the simplicity of the poor people, advocating force, and the openness of the people, and they do not have a lot of understanding of others.
They would never have imagined that their monarch would be an ambitious and hesitant man.
All of a sudden, everybody's in trouble.
Some ministers simply said that they were sick and took leave to rest at home, because as soon as they came to the court, His Majesty would ask them what they thought of the practices of Qi and Qin.
The most important thing is what position Wei should be in in this campaign and what countermeasures should be taken.
Where can they come up with any countermeasures on the table, if they want to fight, they will definitely not be able to defeat the two of them, but if the two tigers fight, one will be injured.
If he did not hurt Wei Guo, Wei Guo estimated that he would not have the slightest power to resist.
Previously, Zhao wanted to marry Wei. Some people took the opportunity to put forward their own ideas, and they thought that the forces of the two countries should be able to stop it.
But there are also objections.
Because Zhao is a small country, most of the country is mountainous and forested, with a sparse population and barren land.
There is nothing special about it, if a cooperative relationship is established with Zhao State, then to some extent, this is to help Zhao State, not Wei State.
The win-win cooperation between the two countries is more advantageous to Zhao, which has no practical significance for Wei, and in fact, Wei does not need many people from Zhao.
For so many years, the princess of Zhao Guo has been walking around outside, trying to recruit talents, trying to develop relations with other countries, and this kind of news has not reached their ears, but it is precisely because of this that they disdain to associate with Zhao Guo.
Because Zhao Guo is too weak, he has no strength at all.
In other words, if either Qin or Qi made a move against Zhao at that time, then it was still a question of whether Wei, which had formed an alliance with Zhao, would make a move.
But if they really want to sit still, they can't do it.
Because no one can guarantee that after the Qin State destroys the Qi State, it will definitely not make a move against the Wei State.
Ning Ze still did not appear in the court, in the past, he was presiding, and often Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan, could put forward many appropriate ideas in a timely manner, so as not to make them suffocate their eyes, and they didn't know what to do, so they could only be in a hurry.
It seems that since the prince has a princess, he has become more lazy about the court, no matter what he dealt with in the past, the prince was very diligent and effective, but now he will not go to the court if he can not go to the court.
I heard that this is because at the invitation of Zhao Huanting, the princess went to Zhao as a guest, so the prince also had no intention of paying attention to the government.
After all, his wife ran away with others, but he didn't go with him, but went back to Wei to resume his life, so it was impossible to say in front of anyone.
They began to miss the days when Ning Ze had not yet married the princess.
At that time, the prince was concentrating on politics and ignoring foreign affairs, and their affairs were much less, so they didn't need to worry about it at all.
It's like rushing in the sky now, hurrying like a headless fly. I don't even know what I'm up to......
Just when the ministers on the grass hall were rotting into a pot of porridge, Ning Ze was in the palace at this time and was so anxious that he stomped his feet, not as leisurely as outsiders imagined.
But it also has something to do with what they imagined, after all, he is still thinking about Qi Shu.
Early this morning, Fuda put all the folds of the things you need to deal with on the table in his study as usual, and His Majesty still asked Ning Ze to look at it first, read it once, and then pick up important things and report them to him.
So even if Ning Ze is at home, he still has to do things.
It's just that at this moment, in his opinion, he can't bear to do this.
Because Qi Shu didn't even have the slightest whereabouts, how could he have the heart to deal with other things, and how could he rest assured.
Even if he followed Qi Shu with a large number of people, those people still did not write back.
What he could be sure of was that Qi Shu was alive and well.
But it's just not by his side, which makes him scratch his heart like a cat's claw every day.
"Lord Wang, Ye Zi has been on my side for a long time, do you want to consider sending him to the princess's side?"
"Go, go, what's the trouble? Didn't you know that Qi Shu was not in Wei now? Who will I give the leaves, is it possible that I will send the leaves to Zhao State after thousands of miles away? ”
Although Ning Ze said this, he was thinking about the possibility of doing such a thing in his heart.
After all, using a cat as an excuse is still more or less weak.
"The prince can take the initiative to write to Faye Wong through the leaves, and you don't need to wait for the princess to take the initiative to write to the prince, right? Sometimes women also love to wait. Fuda said meaningfully.
If Ye Zi had just entered the palace, he wouldn't have deliberately reminded him, at least he wished that Ye Zi would stay by his side.
But at this moment he didn't want the fat cat anymore.
This cat is too much, on weekdays, Fuda likes to eat anything delicious, and the good drink is hidden in his own house, and he buys it and eats it secretly, not wanting others to see it.
But since Ye Zi lived with him, well, it was he who took the initiative to take care of Ye Zi.
He can't hide all his delicious food, and he doesn't know who this cat learned from, and he eats things very quickly when he pulls them up.
Sometimes the pastry he packed up with a small bag, even if it was placed in a high place, could not escape the fate of being eaten.
The leaf is extremely intelligent, and its nose is also very sensitive, and if there is anything he can sniff, it will definitely find it.
Even if he doesn't eat it.
This is a pain for the Fuda housekeeper, if the leaf doesn't like to eat, but he likes to eat, it can't damage what he loves to eat.
But this is a cat raised by the princess and the princess, and it must be impossible to fight, so I have to serve it well.
He had also thought about giving him to other minions before, but Ye Zi seemed to be eyeing him and refused to follow others, so Fuda was also bitter.
