653. Advance by retreating
Min Zhirui is washing his hands, his hands are very clean, but he still keeps washing them over and over again.
There was a knock on the door, and Zhirui said in a low voice: "Come in." ”
Rong Zhan pushed the door in, and seeing Zhirui's behavior, he stood not far from the door, cold and indifferent: "Regret killing him?" ”
Min Zhirui pursed his lips, revealing a sneer, and then said, "Do you think it's possible?" ”
Rong Zhan smiled: "I don't think it's possible." ”
Zhirui was serious: "He didn't show mercy to his subordinates when he killed my grandmother with Xu Manning, and I naturally don't need any warmth for him now." To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to one's own people, and I still understand this truth. ”
After a pause, his tone slowed down a little: "I'm just a little scared when I think about it now, if the prince ......"
Then he shook his head: "I should have confidence in myself." ”
Rong Zhan nodded: "I have always been very confident in you, the opportunity must always be grasped by yourself, although it was that situation at the time, but I believe that the prince will be fine." ”
Rong Zhan found Zhirui to hide in Chaoyang Temple early in the morning, in order to be able to reserve a move, and now it seems that it is really useful.
And what was even more unexpected to him was that His Majesty had arranged the same person, so he was a little comforted. At the very least, the arrows shot by Zhirui don't make people think about it too much. Rong Zhan was happy to blame His Majesty for this matter.
It's just that none of them thought that the emperor arranged the archers to take advantage of Jiaoyue's safety to persecute Qi Yan.
Thinking of this, whether it was Rong Zhan or Zhirui, they were a little indifferent.
Zhirui said: "Your Majesty really deserves my opinion of him at all. Thinking that he has been hiding his true nature like this for decades, he can pretend to be like this, which makes people feel that he is a kind old man, and we are also blind. ”
Rong Zhan smiled lowly.
Zhirui raised his eyes to look at him, and then said, "Also, you are different from us, you have always been very wary of him. ”
Rong Zhan said slowly: "I'm not guarding him, I'm guarding everyone." It turns out that being able to ascend to the throne is never a simple person. ”
Speaking of this, Rong Zhan laughed indifferently.
"Okay, you're so rested, I still have a lot of things to ......"
"Jiao Yue......" Zhi Rui didn't say a word when he saw him, and finally couldn't help it, and asked in a low voice: "How is Jiao Yue?" ”
Rong Zhan shook his head: "It's okay." It's just that she was too frightened, she has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, where has she experienced these things. ”
Zhirui nodded, he understood in his heart, thinking about everything today, he felt afraid.
Whether it is Prince Yu or Yu Jiaoyue.
He said softly: "I never thought that the reason why Qi Yan took a fancy to Jiaoyue was to mistake her for someone else. ”
Rong Zhan said: "So what? Didn't our good majesty use this as a bargaining chip to kill Qi Yan? knew that Qi Yan actually had a son. He immediately killed the killer, which is really his character. ”
Zhirui mentioned His Majesty, and he felt sick to his stomach, although he was not at the scene, but after he came back, he heard what His Majesty had done, and all his disgust reached its peak.
With a sneer, he said: "Later, I will go back to the border immediately, this capital, I am afraid that I will go crazy if I stay." ”
Rong Zhan shook his head: "No, you can't go." Now the capital is heavily guarded, and they are all arresting the remnants of the Northern Han Dynasty. At this time, if people know that you are in the capital, what do you think will happen? ”
He was indifferent: "The person who shoots the arrow can only be His Majesty's person." ”
He was meaningful, and Zhi Rui stared at him, half loudly, and nodded slowly.
Rong Zhan appeased Min Zhirui and immediately entered the palace, he really has a lot of things to do today, one by one, he kept going through it in his mind. Instructed Miki: "Before Major General Min leaves the capital, the palace must be heavily guarded,."
Miki replied, but he still said, "But today's prince ...... How did he come? ”
This is really puzzling for them.
Rong Zhan did plan to calculate the crown prince, but he did not let him come to Chaoyang Temple, but planned to let him enter the palace to confront His Majesty. What he wants is this, what he needs is the opposition between the prince and His Majesty, but now the prince actually appeared in Chaoyang Temple, which really surprised him.
Rong Zhan pursed his lips: "No matter what, I'll talk about it after I enter the palace." ”
With so many people, it is impossible for him to have more communication with the crown prince, but Rong Zhan is not worried about this.
His eyes flashed: "Be careful, slowly, inform us that the people are dormant, and there must not be a little frizz." ”
Miki replied, and then said: "Lord, you see that this time the prince firmly said that you are the illegitimate son of His Majesty, and there were so many people at that time, and there was such a big trouble...... I'm afraid it's ....... ”
I didn't know what to say, but I didn't continue.
Rong Zhan stopped, looked sideways at Miki, and said slowly: "This may not be a good thing, perhaps, this is more in the direction I want." ”
He smiled indifferently and said in a low voice: "I didn't want anything originally, I just wanted to avenge my father; But today, I have Jiaoyue and a child. I can't help but think about them, and since I'm already destined to get everything I want if I stand at the top, why don't I do it? What's more, the man on the throne was really the murderer of my father. ”
Miki was stunned.
He said with difficulty: "Lord Wang, back then, back then, back then......"
"I already have proof."
Rong Zhan was calm: "Although he didn't do it himself, he was a person who calculated and profited from it." ”
***
The palace is heavily guarded and solemn.
Rong Zhan quickly entered the palace, and when he came to the imperial study, the imperial study was very depressed.
Rong Zhan knelt down and said goodbye.
The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "Get up." ”
Rong Zhan thanked him, and then got up, his whole person was a little cold. He wasn't a passionate person in the first place, but now he's even colder.
The emperor looked at Rong Zhan carefully and said, "How is Jiaoyue's health?" ”
Rong Zhan sneered and said, "Thanks to you...... OK. ”
The emperor naturally knew that Rong Zhan was dissatisfied, but this was also human nature. He relented and said, "It's okay, it's okay, this time it's ......"
Rong Zhan interrupted the emperor's words and seriously: "This time the matter has passed. ”
The emperor tapped his finger on the table and said, "Although the matter has passed, there are still many follow-up problems in this matter, and I think you also know that I originally planned to arrange for Concubine Shu to assassinate him. This is their own business, and it has nothing to do with us. The more fierce they fight within, the better. But now Qi Yan was not killed by Concubine Shu. I don't know who killed him, but I think it's a little strange. ”
Rong Zhan raised his head and smiled, and said, "Weichen doesn't know anything about Concubine Shu, I only know that Concubine Shu has returned to the Northern Han Dynasty." If Your Majesty finds Concubine Shu again, then I can only say that it is really wrong. As for who killed him......" He smiled low and said slowly, "Didn't Your Majesty know?" It's the one you arranged to kill Jiaoyue. ”
His eyes were very sharp, and he did not hide his momentum: "Your Majesty, why do you need to pretend now? ”
The emperor became serious: "Rong Zhan! ”
Rong Zhan does not show weakness, even if this person is the emperor, in this matter, Rong Zhan will not show weakness. Thinking of the possibility of losing Jiaoyue, he felt that he could not sleep well.
It was the only light in his dark night, and his only belief, and if someone deprived him of it, he would never let that person go. In spite of...... Who is it!
"Your Majesty, I don't think I need to say it now, who in the world doesn't know! In order to be able to kill Qi Yan, you even did not hesitate to use Jiaoyue as bait. A woman may not seem like much to you, but to me, she is the best treasure in the world. ”
Rong Zhan took a deep breath and said, "Now that Qi Yan is dead, there are many things that Weichen doesn't want to talk about, let alone ask too much. Do whatever you want for the rest. Later, Jiaoyue's health will be better, and our family will leave the capital. ”
As soon as these words came out, the emperor immediately kept his eyes on him.
"What nonsense!"
Rong Zhan said: "I now know why Uncle Zhao is not in the capital most of the year, and now that I think about it, Uncle Zhao is still smart." The most important thing is to protect yourself. Otherwise, I don't know when I will be used as a bait by His Majesty. Not even a bone was left of the embezzlement. ”
"Rong Zhan!" The emperor was angry: "Is this the attitude you should have to speak to me?" Those who do big things are not informal, and Su Jiaoyue doesn't have anything to do, why do you have to insist so aggressively? ”
He said coldly, "She's very good, but it's not enough for you to change into what you are today, right?" ”
Rong Zhan smiled incredulously and said, "Your Majesty is not me, how do you know what I need?" And how do you know I'm not particularly willing to make the change? ”
He said slowly: "Your Majesty, I know you can't see my behavior, but in the same way, if you say something rebellious, I am too. In that case, we don't need to look at each other, you can rest assured that I will disappear soon. ”
The emperor rubbed his temples, and suddenly he felt a sense of powerlessness. He and the prince had just quarreled just now, and now he has changed Rong Zhan. They were all his sons, but they were not at all like him. They are all heroes who are short of breath and have long children's love.
"There will be no next time," he said. ”
Rong Zhan smiled lightly: "Who knows?" Your Majesty, if there is nothing to do, Weichen will leave. ”
Emperor: "This time, we must deal with the aftermath." ”
Rong Zhan smiled lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, he said, "What does that have to do with me?" I don't want to know anything about progress, and I don't want to know everything. ”
