Concubine Qiong listened, and there was nothing to be done, although His Majesty was close to her, but he was His Majesty after all, who dared to point fingers at him, if he abided by his duty, it would be fine, if he was too talkative, maybe one day he would leave the old feelings behind.

Now even the queen doesn't persuade His Majesty much.

After thinking about it, I had to pretend to be sick and ordered the palace maid to invite His Majesty to come.

In any case, the big thing is important, Your Majesty can't get drunk and dream of dying anymore, even if you find an opportunity to persuade him to deal with the matter in front of him first.

Moreover, King Duan did not listen to advice, he had to get involved in troubled waters, in order to protect him, he had to do something for King Jun and Xie Ling, whether they needed it or not, they would always take care of it.

I hope that I can protect Duanwang when the time comes.

Concubine Qiong did not mention the process of advising the emperor, she was painstaking, and the emperor saw it in his eyes, but it was also true that she was unable to do it.

The heart became more and more anxious, and the matter of the reserve was shaky, making it difficult for people to feel at ease.

As soon as King Ling returned home, someone came to visit, and it was the minister who impeached King Ye in the court in the early dynasty.

"His Royal Highness the King of Ling, the old minister has something to discuss. ”

Seeing his panicked appearance, King Ling knew that nothing good was going on, so he took him to the study, "Say it." ”

"In the morning, the minister impeached King Ye, I thought that I could suppress King Ye, but Your Majesty is the most taboo about this, and now King Ye's voice is high, if there is a different heart, wouldn't it be much easier than the rebellion of the ten princes. ”

"Getting to the point. ”

The man looked at King Ling's face, "King Ye didn't threaten them. ”

At this time, King Ling only felt that they were not enough to succeed and more than to lose, "What the hell is going on." ”

"The deputy commander of the forbidden army made a big mistake, and was noticed by King Ye's people, he made a private appointment to meet King Ye, and wanted to use his allegiance to King Ye to let King Ye cover up the matter for him, King Ye not only refused, but also sent someone to investigate in detail, and he happened to be caught by the minister. ”

"You're going to let him change his words, so that he can bite King Ye back? What about your brain? Can this matter stand up to scrutiny?"

The man said in a panic, "Your Majesty is suspicious and sensitive now, I thought that he would not be able to tolerate King Ye who did such a thing, but when the time comes, as long as the witness bites King Ye to death, King Ye loses his trust, His Highness will have a chance." ”

"How did you know about that. ”

"It was His Royal Highness King Duan who inadvertently mentioned that King Ye and the deputy commander of the forbidden army met in private, and the minister himself sent someone to find out. ”

"King Duan, his words are not credible, he doesn't seem to help anyone, in fact, he thinks that I and King Ye are not allowed to turn over, this matter will definitely be exposed, you had better clear up the relationship, let the deputy commander of the forbidden army on top, if you can't stand it, you know what to do." ”

"The minister will definitely not let His Highness be affected, but the matter will be later, and His Highness needs to take care of it. ”

"Don't worry. ”

"Your Highness, what should I do over there for King Ye. ”

"Don't be in a hurry, you go back and prepare first. ”

The man saw that he didn't want to say more, so he took his leave, and now it seems that His Royal Highness has little chance of winning, and King Duan Jun also got involved, and King Ye pressed on it, and it was not easy to get out.

After retiring, King Ling stayed alone in the study, and Qinglin brought hot tea.

These days, King Ling is also indulgent and pampered, and he is closer than ordinary concubines, so Qinglin is also a little bolder.

King Ling looked at him, approached with concern, put down the tea, and a violent color brewed in his eyes.

When he walked in, he grabbed him by the waist, pressed him on his lap, and kissed him on the mouth of his exclamation, and his movements were rough, as if the person in front of him was just a device to vent his anger.

In front of Qinglin, he had never been so out of shape, Qinglin panicked for a moment, and took the initiative to hug King Ling's neck to show his submission.

The two of them messed around in the study for a while, and after the warmth, King Ling looked a little lazy, and Qinglin ignored his embarrassment and helped King Ling dress neatly.

Raising his eyes again, King Ling's eyes were still sharp, and the so-called laziness seemed to be just an illusion.

Qinglin was disappointed in his heart, shook his head funny, and secretly warned himself in his heart.

King Ling saw that his face was full of confusion and embarrassment, and his heart was full of happiness.

After a while, a subordinate knocked on the door, "Your Highness, someone has just come to visit, handed in this letter, saying that Your Highness will see him if he reads it." ”

King Ling had just vented, and now he was in a better mood, "Take it in." ”

Qinglin hadn't sorted it out yet, and when he heard this, he hurriedly hid behind the bookshelf.

King Ling thought that he was some kind of opportunistic strategist or something, but when he opened the letter, he looked at it, and there was an uproar in his heart.

Sitting down and rubbing his eyebrows, it turned out to be a merchant countryman, Xie Ling and they tried their best to get rid of these people, but they didn't expect that there were still Shang people who dared to show their faces, and they also appeared in front of themselves, the prince of Chu State, in a grand manner.

Qinglin got dressed, saw that he was distressed, and he didn't care about anything else, so he came over and rubbed his temples for him, and King Ling was in a trance, and he understood his father a little.

After a moment of calm, King Ling instructed the people outside, "Tie people up for me." ”

Qinglin's subordinates trembled slightly, hurriedly stabilized their hands, and looked down to see that King Ling was still with his eyes closed, which was relieved.

"Yes. ”

"Bring people to the study. ”

"Yes. ”

Qinglin's expression moved, and there was a hint of relief.

"Go back and rest, and come back in the evening." ”

"That Qinglin went down first. ”

King Ling closed his eyes and let out a slight "um".

When he went out, King Ling opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

It seems that in addition to his head disease like his father, this kind of self-deception and unwillingness to investigate are also like his father.

A person who appeared inexplicably, with no suspicions on his body, but who looked similar to Xie Ling, actually believed it like this and took it with him.

Could it be that just being similar to Xie Ling can lower your vigilance? Xie Ling, I hope that the person who surrenders to me is you, but you are so proud, you are destined to be our enemy.

No wonder the other party knows so much about himself, it seems that he has been eyeing him for a long time, the Shang delegation has already set off, they must have other plans.

King Ling cleared his thoughts, and his subordinates had already tied people up.

That person looked extremely ordinary, the kind that he couldn't find in the crowd, and at the moment he was tied up with flowers, and his clothes were a little messy, so he must have subconsciously struggled.

King Ling said in his heart, even the people of Jin have no more concentration than this.

"You must have thought that when the king read that letter, he would treat you like a guest. ”

"Guests don't dare to be, but at least they shouldn't be treated that way. ”

"This king has already been gracious if he didn't let people send you to Dali Temple. ”

The man smiled, "Since His Highness didn't do this, it means that the villain deserves to be treated as a guest." ”

"What kind of treatment is up to your example, let's say. ”

"His Royal Highness is really different from the Ten Princes, the position of Emperor Chu should be His Royal Highness. ”

"Do you think that all the people of my Chu country are as stupid as Lao Shi? Don't talk nonsense, this king's patience is limited, if you don't want this king to send you to Xie Mansion. ”

"Your Highness really doesn't play cards according to common sense, do you want us to believe that Your Highness doesn't care about the throne? We can make a deal, and we will help Your Highness achieve what he wants. ”

"There are some things that can't be achieved by just talking, and it's better to say less about big things. ”

Seeing that King Ling was a little relieved, the man said, "All our forces in Chujing can be used to support His Highness." ”

King Ling sneered, "How much strength do you still have now, and you want to use this king with this little thing? Are you really a fool to be this king?"

It seems that King Ling is underestimated, outsiders only know that he has a perverse personality, but they don't know that he is also extremely smart.

"Your Highness, rest assured, although Xie Ling and King Jun are ruthless, we are not sitting still, and the remaining strength, if we make good use of it, we will definitely be able to help Your Highness successfully sit on the throne. ”

"Heh, you and I know the role of these forces in our hearts, you and I will do your best to help this king?

The man thought, this is different from everyone's analysis, everyone knows that King Ye and King Ling have already competed for popularity, why can the grumpy King Ling be so rational.

Steady his mind and said, "His Royal Highness has always wanted to get the approval of Emperor Chu and ascend to the throne, but Emperor Chu's mind is unpredictable, King Ren Ye and His Royal Highness are fighting to the death, and they are covered with bruises, why does His Highness change his mind." ”

King Ling glanced at him, but did not speak.

"Since Emperor Chu doesn't give it, His Royal Highness will go and get it, King Ye's qualifications are mediocre, just taking advantage of his identity, King Jun is not from a high background, and he is low-key, but it's best to continue to keep a low profile, get rid of these stumbling blocks, so that Emperor Chu has no one to choose, isn't His Royal Highness the best choice?"

"It turns out that you are fighting this idea, let's kill each other and consume strength, what do you want to achieve?"

The man said in his heart, although King Ling was still hard-mouthed, but he was obviously moved, "This compensation is a big number, and the Shang Kingdom doesn't want to take it out, so please ask Your Highness to maneuver through it, and after Your Highness's position is stable, the two countries will rebuild and no longer mention the old things, wouldn't it be beautiful?"

King Ling knew that this was definitely not their real purpose, and it was true that he didn't want to take it out, in the current situation, the only way for the Chu State to be quick and stable is the best policy, if it continues to suffer internal friction and make everyone lose the unity of the outside world, then the Chu State has only a dead end.

Even if he gains power with their help, when the time comes, the rulers of the Chu State collude with the Shang State and even become their puppets, then the Chu State itself will fall apart and will not have the strength to fight with the Shang and Jin.

Lian Jin really had sinister intentions, but these people decided that they would betray the Chu State in exchange for a momentary pleasure?

When the man saw King Ling's expression change, he only thought that he was thinking about the possibility of success in this matter, and he was proud in his heart.

"Your Highness is so fierce with King Ye, it's almost your life, Your Highness can't afford to fail again, then accept our help. ”

King Ling's eyes were cold, and he looked at him coldly, and he failed again, it seemed that they thought that without their help, he would not have been able to win.

But since it has been sent to the door, then accept this gift, if all their remnants are defeated, the current crisis can be solved.

They really came to help.

"There are spies all around the palace, especially the people of the Xie family, I don't know where to look, you dare to come to my palace so swaggeringly?"

When the man heard this, he really agreed, isn't this just a gesture of goodwill?

"For the sake of His Highness, the villain is willing to be a bait. ”
