Chapter 299 It's hard to turn back
Zhao Ning's news of returning to Yanping, Zhao Yujie quickly learned from the "abyss".
This immediately aroused her vigilance, and she immediately ordered her personal maid Lan Ying to let the abyss's people pay attention to the other party's every move, and no matter whether the other party moved or not, she must report it every day.
"Although Zhao Ning did some things a few years ago, he was ordered by His Majesty not to go out, and he has been playing in the mountains and rivers for the past five years, but he is just an idler. ”
Lan Ying was very surprised and incomprehensible to Zhao Yujie's fuss, "Now Niangniang is one of the two most powerful people in the dynasty, one word can be worth a million teachers, and one argument can decide the rise and fall!"
"A mere son of a family, even if he has some ability, where does he have weight, can he let Niangniang put it in his eyes? Niangniang wants to solve all the people of the family!"
Zhao Yujie ignored Lan Ying's chatter, pondered for a moment by herself, and suddenly said:
"I haven't been in power for a long time, and my energy has been on the court in the past few years, and now I can really control the overall situation, but I neglected to pay attention to this guy.
"Immediately send an order to the second master, let her send elite people, be sure to find out Zhao Ning's itinerary over the years. Where he has been, what he has done, who he has met, no matter how big or small, he can check as much detail as he can, and within three months, I will have a preliminary grasp!"
Lan Ying didn't expect Zhao Yujie to be so resolute and attach so much importance to Zhao Ning, she opened her mouth, first leaned over, and arranged for someone to pass the order, and only after she came back did she express her doubts: "Why is Niangniang so concerned about Zhao Ning?"
"You're thinking of this guy too simply. ”
Zhao Yujie's beautiful and pure face was full of solemnity at the moment, and her eyes were as clear as a stream, and they flashed with danger, "How Xiao Yan, the princess of Beihu, was defeated, I haven't fully figured it out so far, but we all know very well how the Yanmen army won in the battle of Fengming Mountain."
"If Zhao Ning overthrew the Liu family, the Pang family and other families by borrowing the situation given by His Majesty, then these two things are completely Zhao Ning's personal actions.
"How clever Xiao Yan's methods are, how huge the power is, I know better than any of you, when she was defeated, there was no warning at all, and when she was about to fall, the building collapsed, and she reacted.
"And how strong is the Beihu army...... After fighting in the Western Regions for so many years, although Wang Shi has won many victories, he has not even crossed the Green Ridge, and has been in the process of pacifying the rebellious state, and now the Tianyuan army does not know where to fight;
"In Liaodong, although the army of the defense envoy won more victories and suffered fewer defeats, I have carefully analyzed the military reports, and I can say with certainty that they have not even encountered the Jurchen royal court army and the real elite......! Don't say it!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Yujie fell silent, and her face became more and more gloomy.
Lan Ying thought about it carefully, and she was also shocked.
If nothing else, the depth of the war situation is enough to send chills down the spine.
Of course, Lan Ying would not question Zhao Yujie's views on the war, the other party had no less contact with the army in the two years of the Zhenguo Mansion, and at that time she had enough knowledge in this area and cultivated extraordinary insight.
Summing up Zhao Ning's past deeds, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion: Zhao Ning will definitely not be really idle! This is not a person who is willing to be lonely!
He seems to be at ease, traveling year after year, as if he has done nothing, but he is also likely to have done everything!
That's where the horror lies.
Often when things break out, others can realize what he has done before, what preparations and plans he has made. It's like a thunderous blow digging out Xiao Yan's fine forces. Before Xiao Yan's defeat, everyone didn't know that there was a force called Beihu Xizuo, who could know how much Zhao Ning had done?
For Zhao Yujie, she and Zhao Ning are mortal enemies in public and private. The fight between the two sides will only end when one of them disappears from this world!
Other than that, there will never be a second case.
Zhao Yujie must know what Zhao Ning is doing.
"Niangniang from the bottom of the market with nothing, hungry and precarious, step by step to today's position, paid countless efforts and efforts, the hardships are not enough for outsiders. Throughout the ancient and modern times, there are few famous husbands and heroes in history.
"Now, Niangniang has finally become the Great Qi Dynasty, the most powerful person except for the emperor is almost standing on the top of the peaks, it is time to show his ambitions, and he must not lose all this because of a son of a family!"
Lan Ying thought of this, and suddenly realized a peculiar problem: within the Great Qi Dynasty, among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, there was only one Zhao Ning among the poor families.
Only Zhao Ning can really threaten Zhao Yujie's status and life, and he still has an unending ambition for her.
If there is no Zhao Ning in the world, wouldn't Zhao Yujie be able to soar?
Or, if Zhao Ning is not an enemy, but a friend, then Zhao Yujie is not unstoppable?
"If Niangniang can join forces with Zhao Ning, who else in this world can be an opponent? What you want can't get, what kind of situation you want can't be realized? If Niangniang didn't turn against Zhao Ning at the beginning......
When Lan Ying said this, she suddenly realized that it was not good, and quickly covered her mouth.
Although the truth is such a truth, but Zhao Yujie and Zhao Ning turned against each other at the beginning, but it stemmed from the betrayal of the former - although Zhao Yujie has been beaten to death and does not admit this, but justice is in the hearts of the people, even in Lan Ying's opinion, Zhao Yujie calculated Zhao Ning and turned against the Zhao family, and it must not be said that she has a clear conscience.
Sure enough, Lan Ying's words suddenly covered Zhao Yujie's face with a layer of frost.
But when Lan Ying bowed to the ground and apologized in fear, thinking that Zhao Yujie was going to punish her severely, the latter didn't do anything.
Zhao Yujie just said coldly: "Don't say this kind of thing in the future!"
"Yes. Lan Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she also understands that unless she goes back in time, there is no possibility of reconciliation between Zhao Yujie and Zhao Ning. Not to mention anything else, the most important thing that Zhao Yujie is planning now is to abolish Zhao Qiyue, the queen!
With a wave of his hand, Lan Ying stepped back, and after the hall was empty, Zhao Yujie sat quietly, looked out the window, looked at the blue sky, frowned and was silent for a long time.
Time is a good thing, as long as the person has enough wisdom, it can make people see everything clearly, but time is also the most ruthless existence, after many years, when people see the past clearly, but no matter what, they can't go back again.
To this day, Zhao Yujie vaguely feels that her choice may have been wrong.
The core of the mistake lies in the deviation of Zhao Ning's cognition.
Not long after entering the Zhenguo Mansion, she thought she had seen Zhao Ning clearly. In her eyes, the other party is just a gentleman who doesn't do his job.
Because she looked down on Zhao Ning and didn't think that in the hardships and tribulations of the world, the other party had the ability to be with her through thick and thin, sheltering her from the wind and rain, so from the beginning, she didn't plan to live with the other party for a lifetime, what she sought was to get enough benefits from Zhao Ning to make her more powerful.
In life, everyone is a lone wanderer, born lonely and lonely when he dies, and even more lonely when he struggles in the middle. And individuals rely on the existence of the crowd, so the vast majority of people always instinctively chase a warm sense of belonging.
The dream of a man's mother-in-law and child is hot on the kang, and a woman wants to marry a lover and a strong man to take care of herself.
Since her mother died of illness and was de facto living on the streets, Zhao Yujie's need for a sense of belonging has become very small.
Wherever she goes, she only regards that place as a temporary shelter, rarely thinking about who she dedicates herself to, what mansion or what family she becomes, she only believes in herself more often, and only pursues her own strength.
Although most women are born with the instinct to cling to the strong and beloved to seek refuge, Zhao Yujie already had other ideas at that time:
What belongs to you is real, and what is strong is really strong. Pinning your hopes on others creates a lot of uncertainty, the risk of being betrayed and abandoned, and stupidity. Only you don't betray yourself, and only you can really protect yourself.
did not fall in love with Zhao Ning, but came out of the Zhao family, the root of which is that Zhao Yujie does not think that Zhao Ning and the Zhao family have the ability to protect her for the rest of her life. Is it worth believing in a romantic and gentlemanly human character? Zhao Yujie didn't want to be "beaten into the cold palace" by Zhao Ning after she was old and decrepit.
But now, Zhao Yujie found that she had a problem with her understanding of Zhao Ning.
First of all, she underestimated Zhao Ning's ability.
Needless to say.
Secondly, she also misjudged Zhao Ning's character.
After the age of sixteen, Zhao Ning never touched the flowers and grass again, and ran for the family wholeheartedly, to this day, Zhao Ning has not married a wife, and the only concubine is his maid Xia He. This is not a short-sighted and lustful man, but an upright man with ambition and ambition!
The former shows that Zhao Ning can give her a comprehensive life.
The latter shows that Zhao Ning will not turn his back on and snub his woman.
"If I hadn't left the Zhenguo Mansion at the beginning, where would I need to be displaced, tossed and turned, with Xiao Yan, and playing with Xu Minglang's old horseman?" Thinking of this, Zhao Yujie's eyebrows were as angry as a sword.
To this day, she even looks down on Song Zhi, thinking that the other party has a problem with his character and is not worth entrusting for life.
Although she is not a good bird, Zhao Yujie feels that it is all forced by life. And Song Zhi, as an emperor, is blind, and he is cold-blooded and ruthless from the heart.
Her path has become more and more lonely.
"The past cannot be traced. ”
After a long time, Zhao Yujie took a deep breath and gathered her chaotic thoughts.
If you want to say that you have any regret for what you did in Zhenguogong, if you want to say that you have misjudged Zhao Ning, and whether you feel guilty - there must be.
But her regret is only a regret after weighing the stakes, and has nothing to do with feelings.
Feelings may be difficult to let go, but if it's just a stake, then there is no reason to immerse yourself too much.
There is no turning back from people and things, and people and things can only move forward.
And now, in front of her, there are only two words: power.
"I've come to this point, and it's absolutely impossible to go back. The only way to make up for the mistakes and regrets of the past is to move forward and have a better life. Zhao Yujie stood up, her face resolute.
A moment later, she came to the Heart Cultivation Hall and arrived in front of Song Zhi.
She wants to settle the matter of the abolition today.
The work of building momentum has been completed, and the next step is to oust Zhao Qiyue from the throne of the queen and replace him.
Becoming the queen is an extremely crucial step on her way to taking charge of the world.
It is not impossible to step out and become the female emperor of Daqi - if so, she will truly stand on the top of the world, and no one can control her fate anymore, can sneer at her, can make her grovel, can make her fall into the dust, have nothing, and be precarious.
can't take a step, she is always just a pawn in Song Zhi's hands.
However, before Zhao Yujie could speak, Song Zhi handed her the secret fold of the Flying Fish Guard in his hand, and said with a solemn expression that the matter of the abolition had to be postponed.
The emperor, who could not hide his anger and surprise, said with a murderous aura: "War is about to break out. Great War!"
