Regarding Qian Yu's dead face, Liu Shijun frowned and stopped talking nonsense with him.

The performance of the two was clearly seen by the emperor, he closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally said: "Qian Aiqing said well, Liu Aiqing said well, it is really embarrassing for me, then choose the best of the best, I think Liu Aiqing's push order is better, I want to implement it according to his ideas, do you have anything to add?" ”

Liu Shijun shook his head, but Qian Yu said: "There is no need to supplement, but I have a question to ask Lord Liu, how are you going to deal with the Eighteen Sage Kings?" ”

Liu Shijun said: "Of course he was left in Jingshi, with him, even if his sons wanted to move, they didn't dare to move." ”

"But why am I a little worried? It's better to arrest him, as soon as his sons make a move, they will directly kill him to sacrifice the banner, even if all the princes unite, without the head of the Eighteen Virtuous Kings, maybe they will turn against themselves. ”

Liu Shijun said: "No, the essence of the Tui En Order is to achieve the goal on the premise of not using the sword and not hurting the peace, if you really use force, you will inevitably encounter great resistance." ”

The emperor also followed: "Back then, Eighteen and I swore in front of our father that we would unite and help each other in this life, so I would not choose to do anything with him as a last resort." ”

Seeing that the two of them were talking about the Tao, Qian Yu scratched his scalp depressedly, Grandpa Mao said that intellectuals have the weakness of the times, he never understood it before, and when he saw Liu Shijun's performance today, he had a little personal experience.

"Then you guys will do it, right? Some time ago, looking for Xiao Hegu's injuries was not good, and the trouble came to the door in waves, the minister was a little tired, please ask the emperor for approval, let the minister rest more! ”

Seeing that Qian Yu was lazy and couldn't lift his spirits, the emperor said: "In this case, according to Qian Aiqing's wishes, you will rest more during this time, and accompany Hesui and Hegu more, they have completely said goodbye to their previous life during the time they have come to the palace, and I can see their various discomforts." ”

******

"What, the emperor not only let you rest, but also canceled our plan to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes?" Qinglong was very surprised, he used to take the people of the White-clothed Sect to fight in the east and west, and he was used to leading people to do things. These days in the capital is idle and panicked, and I finally looked forward to the opportunity to lead the troops again, but it was canceled again, and naturally I was not in a small mood.

Qian Yu said: "It's not incomprehensible that the emperor wants to recover the ruling power of Dahua without moving a single soldier!" ”

The rooster snorted: "I think the emperor doesn't trust us." It's no wonder that compared with us, Liu Shijun is his absolute confidant. It's a pity that all the great plan I made to make war money after staying up late has come to naught. ”

Qian Yu looked at this guy angrily: "Besides, if you didn't mess around with Wang Shen and those ministers, which led to the dismissal of the ministers, and finally forced me to name the truth to stabilize the situation, otherwise how could it be." ”

The rooster rolled his eyes: "Blame me?" ”

Qian Yu glared back: "Don't blame you, who do you blame?" ”

"You ......" the rooster turned his head, "Boss Yue, you give a comment, who is right and who is wrong in this matter?" ”

Yue Fei said: "Of course it's Keyou, he finally vaguely said the purpose of raiding the ministers, although the crisis was solved, but it also left a bad impression on the ministers, although the emperor did not blame, but he still had a mustard in his heart."

Otherwise, do you think Liu Shijun will appear again? I'm afraid this is also something they have negotiated in advance. ”

Only then did the rooster react: "You mean that the position of Keyou Keyou has been replaced by Liu Shijun again." ”

Qian Yu said: "You just saw it?" Hey, it's a pity that I haven't enjoyed enough of the position above 10,000 people under one person! ”

The rooster finally showed a rare look of guilt: "This ...... Excuse me! But it doesn't matter, as far as your relationship with Xiao Hegu is concerned, when he inherits the throne, you can't do whatever you want? Don't worry, just wait a few decades. ”

Qian Yu......

Well, you have a point!

******

In this way, after handing over the command of the first-class guard with a knife back to Liu Shijun, Qian Yu was idle, and he either went to play with Hesui and Hegu on weekdays, or went to the poetry bookstore to do some new plays.

The emperor's edict was finally issued, and on the day of the announcement, the whole country was shocked, and it is said that many princes and princesses gathered at the gate of the palace and knelt for an hour to thank the emperor for his wisdom and martial arts.

The newly promoted ministers also began to adapt to the work at hand, and the entire organ of power once again operated with amazing efficiency, without the constraints of the eighteen virtuous kings, the emperor really had the feeling of being an emperor, every word and deed, the world surrendered, it was not too cool.

It's just that the Eighteen Sages really admit defeat like this? This is definitely beyond his expectations, after all, the other party's biggest dependence, the Eighteenth Route Army on the frontier has not made the slightest movement.

As soon as he wondered if he could find someone to supervise these troops, a letter with three goose feathers sticking to it was handed over by the panting little eunuch.

When the emperor scraped off the fire paint and saw the content of the letter, the whole person instantly fell soft on the dragon chair, something big happened!

"What about the Eighteen Wise Kings? Bring him to me! It took a long time for the emperor to come back to his senses, and in front of the little eunuch who was delivering the letter, his voice was loud enough to shake off the dust on the roof.

The little eunuch who delivered the letter was extremely aggrieved, because he didn't know what was going on, but the emperor had an order, and he could only do it.

Half an hour later, the little eunuch came back again, probably because the exercise was too vigorous, and his little face was pale: "Your Majesty, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good, the eighteenth prince is he...... He's gone. ”

"What?"

"Ten days ago, the eighteenth prince hid in the room and refused to see anyone on the grounds that he was sick and needed shelter from the wind

The door was opened, but the room was empty. ”

The emperor looked at Liu Shijun on the side: "Liu Aiqing, what's going on?" ”

The cold sweat on Liu Shijun's forehead swished down: "The minister will go and check!" ”

Another half an hour passed, and Liu Shijun came back, but his face was whiter than that of the little eunuch: "Your Majesty, the minister found a secret passage to the outside of the capital in the Eighteen Princes' Mansion, if it is as expected, the prince has secretly left the capital ten days ago." Please...... The sin of the emperor's ministers! ”

Liu Shijun had a headache and regretted it, during this time, because of the Tui En Order, he was busy day and night, thinking that he could settle the situation in one fell swoop, but who knew that he missed the biggest fish.

Without the Eighteen Sage Kings, everything he did would be greatly reduced, and it could even be said that it would have no effect. This feeling is like playing chess, obviously you have eaten up the opponent's rooks and horses, and you have not lost a single son, but you are checkmate by the opponent's two pawns.

The emperor stared blankly ahead, his eyes blank, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, he sighed: "Is this fate?" ”
