241 Pretending to quarrel
"Of course there is, and it's a big deal. Zhong Li pretended to be mysterious, and stopped, there was an indescribable bewitching taste in his eyes, "Saving the King of Chu is small, and pulling the prince off the horse is big." Lord, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as the crown prince and the queen are convicted of murdering the saint, the prince will be abolished, and when you make a contribution, will you still be able to run the crown prince's position? As for the king of Chu, he is just a military general with no foundation, how can he compare with the prince?"
Zhong Li's sentence was reasonable, Xiao Jinyu couldn't help but think deeply, he slowly pecked a sip of tea. The father's health is not as good as a year, if the crown prince does not make major mistakes during this period, then the prince will inherit the throne justifiably. Once he succeeded to the throne, the first thing he did when he came to power was to deal with his former political opponents.
The two can't coexist between him and the crown prince, it must be life and death, so he has to get that position.
This incident is indeed an opportunity for him, to frame the prince, intimidate the queen mother, and endanger the emperor, as long as he seizes this opportunity, the prince will have no place to turn over.
But this is also an opportunity to get rid of Xiao Junjueยทยทยทยทยทยท
Now in front of him are two choices, Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Junjue, choose one of the two.
Zhongli observed his expression, "Opportunities are often fleeting, and if you miss it, you may never come back." Struggle for the throne. No matter which dynasty or generation, there is no room for the slightest mistake, and if it is wrong, it will be a catastrophe. Now in front of the prince is a ladder that can ascend to the throne, as long as the prince takes a step, he will ascend to the sky in one step. โ
Seeing that Xiao Jinyu's face was relaxed, he continued: "As for the King of Chu, as long as the prince can achieve great things, it is not in the palm of the prince's hand. He arched his arch and said earnestly: "Lord, this is definitely a great opportunity to trip the prince, if you miss it, maybe the prince will regret it for the rest of his life, and please think twice." โ
Xiao Jinyu pondered for a moment, the scale in his heart slowly shifted, he twisted his fingers on the bridge of his nose between his eyes, and said: "Once you intervene, you will be antagonizing the prince with great fanfare, although the prince has lost a Shi Yan, but he has been in the position of the prince for many years, and his foundation is deep and stable, and he is not so easy to deal with." โ
"For the sake of the throne, why should the prince take a risk? Zhongli lit a fire in Xiao Jinyu's heart.
Zhongli's eyes were fixed on his face, "I know a divine doctor below, maybe he has a way to revive the saint." Now the question is that the crown prince and the queen are in control of the palace, how do we send him to the palace. โ
Xiao Jinyu nodded, Zhongli thought that his goal had been achieved, and he was about to breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, but when he saw him raise his eyebrows, he asked rhetorically: "Why is it so troublesome? The crown prince and the empress don't really want their father's life, and after twenty-one days, the father will naturally wake up, and then the king will present the evidence of their crimes, isn't it more logical?"
Zhongli blurted out, "But the King of Chu-" felt that he seemed too impatient, so he slowed down, "The King of Chu is the most powerful evidence." โ
Xiao Jinyu waved his hand and said, "The death of King Chu is a powerful evidence. He smiled faintly, "Why bother with this king? If my father wakes up now, Xiao Junjue will be saved, why should this king fight with the crown prince, and he will benefit? This king waits patiently, if he dies, his father will be furious, and when the time comes, he will deal with the prince even more ruthlessly." โ
Zhongli gasped, this King of Jin was really ruthless.
"Lord, Princess Chu asks to see. Zhongli was still thinking about how to continue to lobby King Jin, and there was an announcement outside, and his heart jumped suddenly, Princess Chu?
Xiao Jinyu was also surprised, but when she thought about it, she knew why Rong Zhao came. In the past few years, she has avoided him like a tiger, and now she has personally sent him to the door for Xiao Junjue.
His face sank and he said, "Let her in." He looked at Zhongli again, "Sir, let's go down first, and we'll talk about it in detail later." โ
"Yes, under the resignation. Zhongli left with his hands, thinking about why Princess Chu came, and when he turned into the verandah, he saw a woman in red walking at the door of the weeping flowers, a little far away, he didn't see what he looked like, he only felt that his posture from a distance was already wonderful. I have long heard that the former King of Jin and the current Princess of Chu used to be a couple, and now that the King of Chu is killed, she came to King Jin, is she here to throw herself into her arms?
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Princess Jin not far away, his eyes rolled, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he stepped forward.
"It's a rare visitor. Xiao Jinyu looked at Rong Zhao with a smile, he didn't get up to greet him, sat on the chair, and didn't give up his seat, "Princess Chu has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, how can she set foot on the cheap land today?"
Knowing that Rong Zhao came to beg him, he deliberately took her.
Now that he is begging for help, Rong Zhao is angry in his heart, but he has to endure it stubbornly.
Seeing her forbearance, Xiao Jinyu's heart was even more angry. He knows Rong Zhao too well, it's a cannon battle, just one point, if he was like him before, how could she still stand there and not get angry?
Xiao Jinyu was angry in her heart, and her tone was angry, "Say, what's the matter?"
Rong Zhao took a breath lightly, raised his chin, and said, "I'll ask you to help me rescue Xiao Junjue from Dali Temple." โ
"Rong Zhao, are you looking for the wrong person?" Xiao Jinyu shook his head and laughed, "I didn't fall into the well, I was already very kind to him, and you still came to let me help you rescue him, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Since I'm here, I naturally have my reasons, and I ask you to help, and I naturally have my reasons. Rong Zhao thought about it for a long time, and now the only one who can balance the prince is Xiao Jinyu, so she has to come.
"What reason do you have? What reason do you have?" Xiao Jinyu stood up and slowly walked towards Rong Zhao, "Zhaozhao, I'm glad you came to see me, but I'm sad that you came for Xiao Junjue." You make me so sad, I can't save him. โ
"Besides, he's not something I can save. His mother turned into a ghost to entangle his father, so that his father could not wake up so far, and he had to use his blood to save his father. โ
"Ghosts? Do you believe it? You know very well that any hidden real person and any method are all deceptive, and this is simply a trick played by the prince and the queen. You're so smart, I'm sure you wouldn't believe it when you hear about it. โ
"I don't believe it, this matter has nothing to do with me at all, it is a grudge between the prince and Xiao Junjue. โ
Xiao Jinyu showed an attitude of not caring and staying out of the matter. Rong Zhao sneered with a smile, "It has nothing to do? Do you think that the queen and the crown prince just want Xiao Junjue's life? Don't forget what Xiao Junjue has in his hand now?"
Xiao Jinyu's expression was solemn in an instant, "You mean they have a crush on the forbidden army?"
He was nervous, Rong Zhao's heart relaxed, she raised her eyebrows, and sat down nearby. She looked at Xiao Jinyu playfully and said, "Although I am a woman with shallow knowledge, I also know that the princes of all dynasties fought for the throne and broke their blood, didn't the emperor's uncle come over like this back then, how can it be calm when it comes to you?"
Rong Zhao's words were like pulling a thread in Xiao Jinyu's heart, he sat down with him, and Rong Zhao continued: "To be honest, Xiao Jingrui is indeed not a monarch, even if his qualifications are mediocre, he is still arrogant and lascivious, violent and wanton, if he is not his son-in-law, this prince will not be his turn." And you are much better than him, your prestige in the court, and the love of the people, are all well-known. The two of you, one is the stinky shit on the ground, which everyone hates, and the other is the cloud in the sky, and everyone looks up, I don't believe that the cloud in the sky will willingly lose to a bunch of stinky shit. โ
Xiao Jinyu couldn't stop looking at Rong Zhao, he never thought that Rong Zhao would say such insightful remarks, and there were stars shining like stars in his eyes.
He smiled bitterly and said, "What if you are unwilling? He is the crown prince, the prince, and the future emperor chosen by his father." "He is really unwilling, if the prince is a capable person, he is still a little convinced, but it is an unsuccessful thing like Xiao Jingrui. If the Great Zhou Dynasty is handed over to such a person, the foundation of these hundreds of years will not be completely destroyed in his hands.
"If he is really the future emperor that his father decided to choose, how can there be * and the Jin Wang Party in the court now?" Rong Zhao looked at him and hit the nail on the head.
Xiao Jinyu's pupils shrank, narrowed her eyes slightly, and fixed Rong Zhao's face in her eye sockets, as if this would be the only way to see her clearly, "Why didn't I find out that you still have such a political sense before? I really underestimated you." โ
Rong Zhao wants to say, I followed you for so many years in my previous life, even if I didn't, I would learn from it.
Rong Zhao turned his face away from him, and shifted his gaze to the picture of the double dragons competing for glory hanging on the wall, "The double dragon fighting for the pearl, only one can fight for it." Between you and the crown prince, only one can live. โ
"Xiao Junjue is an insignificant person in your competition. He can't get in the way of any of you, because of his mother, he has nothing to do with the throne in this life. It can even be said that any prince can be an emperor, but he can't. So you never treat him as a political enemy, even if he has great military achievements, am I right?" she asked Xiao Jinyu.
Xiao Jinyu bowed his head and said: "His identity is unknown, he has been criticized, and now there are rumors that he is not a prince." The royal bloodline is not to be defiled, so he can never be made a prince. Besides, he can only fight, and there is no one in the court, which is naturally despised. But-" Xiao Junjue's eyes flashed slightly.
"But this is a different time. Rong Zhao grabbed the words, "The commander of the forbidden army, the defense of the palace, the safety of the entire imperial city is all in his hands, you can't see clearly, you don't know what your father means by this move, and even you are jealous of him, you are afraid that there will be another person to fight with you." โ
She suddenly looked at Xiao Jinyu and said faintly: "But this time your movements are slow, and the prince is one step ahead of you." โ
