Chapter 9: Undercurrents (6)

A rapid cold wind blew outside the palace, penetrating the cracks and windows of the doors, blowing the candles in the dormitory swaying.

"Xiufeng, Shude, and re-entered?" Guo Wei deliberately pretended to be very surprised, and raised his hand weakly, flattening down. "Why are the three of you here together?

"Yes, Your Majesty. Wang Jun, Wang Yin, and Li Chongjin replied in unison, and then stood up one after another as if they had been rehearsed in advance. The three of them took Li Chongjin as the front and lined up into a character. If you have a weapon in your hand at the moment, you can fight in formation at any time.

"Is it important for the three of you to come to the palace so late?" Guo Wei tilted his head sideways, looked at Wang Jun, who had gray hair, and then looked at Wang Yin, who was full of scars, sighed, and asked in a low voice.

"It's nothing important, I haven't entered the palace for a few days, and Weichen is a little relieved!" Wang Jun smiled and bowed his hand gently.

"Yes, Your Majesty, how are you today, has your physical condition improved?" Wang Yin added, the "concern" in his eyes was as fake as fake.

"Your Majesty, the Ji people have their own natural appearance, and there must be no big problem. Li Chongjin lowered his head with a smile and wished respectfully.

"Huh, it should be a lot!" Guo Wei's heart softened when he was asked, and in an instant, he remembered the various pictures of drinking and eating meat with Wang Jun and Wang Yin, and struggling to survive in the pile of dead people, and his tone suddenly became much softer: "I ate a bowl of ginseng soup today, and I took the time to watch a few twists and turns." Brother Xiufeng, I am sick this time, and I am at a loss to you inside and outside. Otherwise, the country doesn't know what the chaos will be?"

"Your Majesty and the old minister, why are you so polite?" Listening to Guo Wei's words, Wang Jun's heart also swelled with warmth. But soon, this warmth was forcibly suppressed by him, and it was replaced by a cold and hard strategy, "Our Great Zhou, although it belongs to Your Majesty, but the ministers also overcame obstacles for it back then, so naturally we should share honor and disgrace with it." ”

"Yes, a few of us have always been grasshoppers on a rope. Guo Wei's eyes changed slightly, and he immediately nodded with a smile, "If it weren't for Xiufeng, I wouldn't have had a chance to sit in this position." If it weren't for Shude, I wouldn't have been able to sleep well in the palace. Over the years, it's been really hard for you two. ”

"The ministers are willing to share the worries of Your Majesty!" Wang Jun took Wang Yin and bowed behind Li Chongjin's side at the same time. "May Your Majesty be blessed with a good fortune and recover your health as soon as possible!"

"Hehe, a handful of old bones, no matter how much you recover, you can't compare to the original!" Guo Wei chuckled, shrank back, and slowly leaned against the wall with his body.

At the beginning of his recovery from a serious illness, his physical strength was far less than before, and he was able to struggle to hold on for an afternoon, which was already very reluctant. Now he continues to deal with Wang Jun, Wang Yin and Li Chongjin at the same time, and he is overwhelmed mentally and physically. You can only rely on the support of the wall to keep yourself from falling halfway.

"Yes, so the ministers and others have discussed a compromise method, which can not only make Your Majesty calm down and nourish your body, but also ensure that the government and the opposition do not cause chaos, and ask Your Majesty to consider it!" Wang Jun saw that Guo Wei seemed to be ready to draw his sword to face the battle at any time, so he didn't dare to continue to go around, so he simply bit down and added loudly.

"It's finally here, and I don't even want to leave me with the opportunity to delay for a few days!" Guo Wei's heart was cold again, and with the support of the wall, he slowly sat up straight, "Brother Xiufeng, please speak clearly." As long as it makes sense, I will naturally not refute your face! and Shude and Chongjin, are you two here for the same thing as Xiufeng?"

"This ......" Although before entering the palace, he had already made up his mind. However, when it really came to the moment when the poor dagger was over, Li Chongjin couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart. didn't dare to face Guo Wei's gaze, quickly lowered his head, and responded in a dumb voice, "Even if it is, uncle, you have also instructed your nephew to ask Wang Shu for advice." ”

"Exactly!" After all, he also rolled in the pile of dead people, and the performance of Taiwei Wang Yin and Wang Shude was much stronger than Li Chongjin. raised his head without fear and announced that he would advance and retreat with Wang Jun.

"Then let's talk about it, what is going on?" The last glimmer of hope in his heart was also completely shattered, Guo Wei smiled instead of being angry, "While I am still awake, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be too late!" "Brother Xiufeng, you and Chongjin are here together, is there anything I need to think about?"

Wang Jun trembled with laughter in his heart. Gritted his teeth, and simply went straight to the point, "Your Majesty, Minister Wang Jun, please ask Your Majesty to appoint Li Chongjin, the emperor's nephew, as the crown prince." During His Majesty's recuperation, he was in charge of the country as the crown prince. Sit in the court for Your Majesty, control the civil and military officials, and guard the world!"

"Please change the emperor's nephew to the crown prince!" Wang Yin bowed and clenched his fists, as if he was in armor, ready to lead the army at any time.

"Child, child, child is willing to share the worries of his uncle!" Seeing that the two of them had already made their intentions clear tonight, Li Chongjin knew that he had no way back, so he also stubbornly clasped his fists and saluted, and took the initiative to "please".

Originally, the three of them were going to say a few digressions first, which broke Guo Wei's vigilance, and then slowly went back to the topic. Unexpectedly, although Guo Wei was half sick and dead, he still beat them up with a few words. Therefore, I can only cut through the mess quickly, so as not to delay any longer, and the courage in my heart will be worn out, and I will take the initiative to admit my guilt and admit defeat!

originally thought that after picking out the purpose on his side, Guo Wei would have to struggle a little bit before he mustered up the courage to bargain. Unexpectedly, the process was not so cumbersome at all. As soon as Li Chongjin's words fell, Guo Wei's replied directly, "No, Chongjin's ability is limited, and it is not enough to replace Jungui." I will not be able to do this in the future! I will not mention it again in the future. ”

"I am your own nephew, and I have the blood of the Guo family in my body!" Li Chongjin suddenly couldn't hold back, jumped up, and emphasized loudly.

"Jungui is my righteous son!" Guo Wei's mind was not moved by this reason at all, he glanced at him disdainfully, and emphasized loudly, "Jungui once raised money and food for me and traveled to the south and north of the Yangtze River. Jungui once led the army to go on an expedition, for me, for the Great Zhou but the Khitan outside the country. Jungui once personally brought under control of the floods of the Yellow River, benefiting all the people of the world! And what have you done for me, for the country, and for the people of the world? If you become the crown prince, where will you put your nobles? Gao Baima, Fu Lao Wolf, Chang Feihu, and your noble brother Zheng Ziming will agree? Will the tens of millions of Li Shu on both sides of the Yellow River agree?

"This ......" Li Chongjin was originally a talented person, and he didn't think about it so much before. Suddenly, I couldn't answer a word when asked, my face was red and I was sweating.

He can ignore the thoughts of the people in the world. He can also turn a blind eye to the merits of benefiting all people. The common people are sheep, the emperor and the hundred officials are shepherds, as long as the whip and butcher's knife are in hand, they don't care about the idea of the sheep at all, and they are not afraid of the sheep rebellion.

However, Gao Baima, Fu Lao Wolf, Chang Fat Fox, and Zheng Ziming are all holding heavy soldiers. Among them, the son of the first person has a good relationship with Chai Rong, the second person is Chai Rong's father-in-law, the third person, and his son-in-law is the fourth person, who is Chai Rong's sworn brother Zheng Ziming, and his daughter wants to call Chai Rong an uncle as usual!

If the four of them unite to raise their arms for Chai Rong, try to ask the world, who can still sit firmly on the throne of the emperor? I am afraid that in the end, it will be a good dream after all. I didn't even have a chance to wake up from a dream, and I went to perdition in a daze!
