Chapter 179: Trying to Persuade
So Zhou Xingzhi rehearsed in his heart countless times before, and what he should say when he saw the little emperor, presented it as it was.
Because she had practiced beforehand, she seemed extremely confident now, and because she clearly knew Ling Kong Mountain's attitude, she was more confident now than before she saw Ling Kong Mountain.
She first told the pseudo-adult that she was the brother of "Ling Shu", the same as what she said to Ling Kongshan before.
But the pseudo-adult didn't seem to be interested in her identity in the slightest, so she stopped the conversation and returned to the most important topic of the evening.
I saw Zhou Xingzhi pick up three stones on the ground casually, and then divide them into three areas and place them on the stone table, and then he said metaphorically.
"False lord, please see, suppose that these three stones now represent the three forces that can most threaten the authority of the king right now. ”
As she spoke, she gently knocked down the stone representing Ling Guofu and continued.
"If Ling Guofu is defeated, then obviously, the other two forces will take the opportunity to grow, and one will lose the other. ”
"Even if so, so what?"
The little emperor pretended to be curious and asked, this matter does not need to be said by Zhou Xingzhi in front of him, he can see it all at a glance, which is why he has not convicted Ling Kong Mountain for a long time.
Maybe he wanted to hear someone talk about it.
"Therefore, it is extremely necessary for these three forces to exist. ”
Zhou Xingzhi erected the stone representing Ling Guofu and continued.
"Although General Lingkong Mountain is wooden and does not know how to be flexible, he is actually a major force that is the most loyal to the king, if the king lets him fold, then he will definitely not be able to find a more powerful force that can suppress the other two big forces, and can compare with Ling Guofu. ”
"Actually, I'm curious, didn't you just say that you were Ling Shu's brother, why are you speaking for Ling Kong Mountain now...... Since Ling Shu died in Ling Guofu, shouldn't you get rid of him as soon as possible?"
The little emperor asked, and he didn't know what kind of calculation Zhou Xingzhi was playing.
"It is true that the sister died because of the people of Ling Guofu, but it was Ling Lianbo who did it alone, and it has little to do with General Ling Kongshan.
Besides, Ling Lianbo has already paid the price with his life, if I fall into the well again at this time, it will appear that I am narrow-minded and do not distinguish between right and wrong. ”
"Then you mean that you still want to intercede for Lingkong Mountain in front of the king?"
The little emperor laughed, but Zhou Xingzhi shook his head and continued: "If it is peaceful today, if something happens because of the matter of the sister-in-law, I am afraid that she will not be stable in the sky." ”
After a pause, Zhou Xingzhi continued: "If it weren't for the kindness of the general of Lingkong Mountain back then, I'm afraid that the sister-in-law at that time would have frozen to death in the snow.
Although the sister had a really miserable life in Lingguo Mansion, it was better than dying at that time, presumably the sister was also satisfied, at least she had a few more years to live. ”
Zhou Xingzhi took this opportunity to look at the little emperor's face, and seeing that his face did not change, she didn't know if her words convinced this pseudo-adult, and after a pause, she continued.
"The sister is not blessed to accompany the king, which proves that she is poor in life. Since she has died, it proves that everything that concerns her is not a stop.
Even if the general of Lingkong Mountain is involved, he can't let the sister resurrect again, since this is the case, there is no need to be confined to this matter anymore. ”
"Besides, General Lingkong Mountain himself is not wrong, from the letter of the sister, let me know that in fact, General Lingkong Mountain has always taken care of the sister.
If General Lingkong Mountain is affected this time, I am afraid that our brothers and sisters will be suspected of revenge. ”
After Zhou Xingzhi finished supplementing, he went to see the little emperor again, and at this time he saw him staring at the fishing rod in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking, and not knowing if he was thinking about what she said.
"Whoa—"
Zhou Xingzhi took advantage of the situation to push down the three stones, and at this time the little emperor looked back at her slightly angry, and then asked, "What are you doing here?"
"If Ling Guofu falls, then these two forces will inevitably fight, if this matter is known to the surrounding countries, if they also want to get some benefits from it, the result of this can only be this. ”
Zhou Xingzhi pointed to the fallen stone, smiled slightly and continued: "If these three forces all fall because of this, I am afraid that it will cause a situation where the country will not be a country."
As a person in power, I think the emperor will definitely understand this simple truth better. ”
"Anyone can figure it out with such a simple logical analysis, right? But the question is how to deal with this matter, after all, it is impossible to do everything. ”
The little emperor frowned and continued: "What Ling Lianbo did was indeed a contempt for the majesty of the king, if he was not severely punished, I am afraid that the situation in the future will become out of control, and it is extremely inappropriate to set a precedent. ”
"After all, the initiator of everything is because of Ling Lan, if she gets enough lessons and can't refute it, wouldn't it be perfect?"
Zhou Xingzhi affirmed, and continued: "I heard that the current king does not have the intention of choosing a concubine, after all, the king is still young, it is normal to think like this, if you can find a good opportunity to send those beauties back, isn't this matter perfectly solved?"
Zhou Xingzhi used the gossip that Xiao Jiu had found out in a timely manner, and then said so in combination with his own guess.
And judging from many speculations, the little emperor has not chosen a concubine for a long time, and this should be the only reason, after all, he is only twelve or thirteen years old, a playful age.
As he spoke, Zhou Xingzhi paused and said with a smile: "Sister Roommate mentioned in the letter that Miss Ling San is extremely weak. ”
"An excuse is just an excuse after all!"
The little emperor snorted, Zhou Xingzhi was not in a hurry, but said slowly: "Taking advantage of this opportunity, the king can inform the world of the appearance of the imperial concubine in his mind, and in this way, those dismissed beauties also have a goal to strive for."
I think that when the time is ripe, the king may be able to choose the royal concubine who wishes, and if he has a goal in mind, he will not be blinded indiscriminately. ”
"The king's concubine should be a good person with both ability and political integrity, and privately thinks that if the imperial concubine can assist the king to a higher position, it will be even more perfect. ”
Zhou Xingzhi said, and then asked rhetorically: "Pseudo-adult, what do you think?"
"I'm afraid that those princes and nobles are not so easy to give up. ”
The little emperor said, and Zhou Xingzhi carefully analyzed: "It's true, but if the three major forces are still there, and they are loyal to the king as always, they don't dare to be too presumptuous."
Besides, this does not mean that the king will not choose the imperial concubine, but it is just a postponement.
I think that during this period of time, there will be many beauties who will be more strict with themselves, after all, the next concubine selection will not be as simple as this time. ”
"Why do you do that?"
The little emperor asked, this should have a deeper purpose.
"It's just a curse that has been swept away for the king of today, and it is better to prevent it from happening. ”
