Xiao Tingliang's eyes widened, and he looked at King Wu with disbelief, he just collided with the Han officials, as for giving such a heavy punishment as cutting off the title?

Compared with the past, the mistake he made this time is not worth mentioning at all, the monarch brother will forgive himself every time, and take the initiative to help him deal with the aftermath, why is it changing the norm today.

In his opinion, being demoted to a commoner is more serious than killing himself, and not only can he not bully others in the future, but he will be avenged by those who have been bullied, and he will lose his title of nobility and be expelled from the clan, which is simply a dead end.

He could almost feel that many of the onlookers in the distance were gearing up, eager to rush up and beat him every minute.

He winked at Brother Wang, but the other party ignored his existence and continued: "The others will be strictly dealt with in accordance with the laws of the country, and the crime will be increased by one degree!"

After announcing the punishment of his younger brother and Yi Cheng, King Wu immediately changed his face, and said to Ye Yunyang with a smile: "Nanshan County Prince, you are all under the rule of this king, which caused you to be treated unfairly in Wu Kingdom, and this king apologizes to you on behalf of these guys who look down on people." ”

Ye Yunyang snorted: "For the sake of His Royal Highness King Wu's face, I won't bother with them." ”

Seeing that he was not unrelenting, King Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Nanshan County Gong is a young talent, he was reused by the emperor and the prince at a young age, and he was the head of the campaign to conquer the south. ”

The king of a country is graciously invited, and few people will refuse.

King Wu is already looking at the prime minister, which means that he must hold a state banquet according to the highest specifications, entertain this Nanshan County minister, and prepare a rich gift.

The prime minister understood and nodded solemnly.

However, Ye Yunyang said in a lukewarm tone: "Forget about eating, thinking back to what happened last night, this official has no appetite at all, His Royal Highness King Wu has already punished the prisoner, this official is very satisfied, I will truthfully report this matter to the emperor." Because of the important business, it is inconvenient for the official to stay here for a long time, so he will say goodbye. ”

"Nanshan County Prince, don't be in a hurry to go, give this king a chance......" King Wu took a step forward, but Ye Yunyang was very faceless, and boarded the carriage by himself, and got into the carriage headlong.

King Wu maintained a posture of stretching one hand forward, Chen Shilai was very eye-catching, stretched out his hand and grabbed the horse's head, and the carriage immediately started, and walked away in the surprised eyes of King Wu and others.

Is there such a faceless person in the world?

It wasn't until the carriage was far away that King Wu came back to his senses and looked at the prime minister with an inquiring gaze.

The prime minister also felt incredible, the genealogy of this Nanshan county prince was too big, in front of the civil and military officials and the people, the monarch personally invited him, he actually refused, and left no room, just leave.

"Ride!" Chen Shilai waved his whip, and the horse raised its hooves and began to accelerate.

The onlookers booed, Rao is King Wu was thick-skinned enough, and he also made a big red face, Xiao Tingliang began to shout: "Brother Wang, you know now why I have a conflict with him, he is so arrogant......"

"Shut up!" King Wu cut off his words and said sharply: "You are a commoner, what qualifications do you have to call a widow a brother, don't you hurry up, do you want to go to the guillotine with Yicheng?"

Xiao Tingliang saw that King Wu was not joking, and took advantage of the fact that the enemies among the people had not yet fisted and kicked him, so he hurriedly ran away with his head in his hands.

"It's all gone, what kind of system is the noisy palace gate!" the captain shouted.

The people dispersed in a hurry, and King Wu suppressed the anger in his chest and asked the prime minister: "The boy surnamed Ye, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?"

The prime minister frowned deeply, and said: "This official is also a little confused, if he is here to target you, why should he let Xiao Tingliang go so easily? But if it is not aimed at us, why do you come to the palace gate to make trouble with great fanfare?"

Taiwei said a little impatiently: "Obviously, he was just passing through Wu State, and he happened to be bumped into by Xiao Tingliang, and Yi Cheng was deliberately embarrassed, so people couldn't swallow this breath, so they beat them all." It is precisely because this trip has nothing to do with Wu Guo that in order not to cause trouble for himself, he deliberately made a very tough appearance, and came here to ask the teacher for his crimes, and his goal was achieved, of course he would choose to leave immediately, so as not to cause trouble. ”

What is called the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and the military captain has interpreted it perfectly, but it is the king of Wu and the prime minister, who are known for their wisdom, because of their preconceived ideas, so they can't figure it out.

"Yes, we were deceived by our own preconceived notions. King Wu said angrily: "As soon as I heard Ye Yunyang's three words, I couldn't help but move closer to the cutting of the domain, and thought about the miserable fate of Qiao Guo and Dongping Kingdom, so that I lost my original judgment, plus he arrested Yicheng and Liangcheng Gong, we naturally thought that he was deliberately finding fault, and then fell behind in momentum." ”

The prime minister suddenly realized: "Yi Cheng and Xiao Tingliang are disrespectful to him, although they deliberately become an excuse to make trouble, but they are still far from the excuse of cutting the domain! The reason why he made such a big battle is to confuse us, His Highness reorganized a cadre without knowing it, and he was afraid that we would come back to our senses, so he chose to leave immediately, and we were fooled." ”

King Wu said angrily: "The hateful Ye Yunyang actually played with the widow in applause, too much!"

The lieutenant said cautiously: "Your Highness, did you still count your verdict just now?"

King Wu was just about to speak, but the prime minister rushed forward and said: "Of course, your highness is a word, and it is said in front of all the people, once the word is broken, the majesty of the monarch will cease to exist." ”

He was afraid that the monarch would restore Xiao Tingliang's title, and as an enemy, of course he couldn't watch it happen.

King Wu was unhappy, but he had to agree: "What the prime minister said is right, the widow must not break his word in front of the people." As for Xiao Tingliang, the widow had long wanted to re-establish him, and it was completely self-inflicted that he was stripped of his title. ”

But he changed his words: "However, today's matter has lost face, and when this matter spreads, people will say that the widow is afraid of him Ye Yunyang, and the entire Wu Kingdom will lose face, can the two adults have a good plan?"

The lieutenant spread his hands, playing with wit was not his specialty, the prime minister's eyes rolled, and he said with a cruel smile: "Weichen has an idea, he will definitely be able to help His Highness avenge, but he is reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, unless you promise one thing, this plan can be successful." ”

Seeing that he looked like he was swearing, King Wu lowered his voice and said, "There are many people here, and the two adults entered the palace with the widow to talk in detail. ”

The carriage galloped out of the East Gate and galloped towards its destination.

Chen Shilai turned around and said: "Childe, you are really a god, even the king of a country is respectful to you, and following you makes me feel more face-saving." ”

Ye Yunyang smiled faintly and said, "The reason why King Wu is so polite is because we caught him off guard. The reason why he chose to leave immediately instead of staying for his state banquet is simple, after a long time, he will figure everything out, and then he will not be so polite to us. ”

Chen Shilai nodded: "Childe is wise." ”

This can be regarded as a rabbit beating a rabbit, I believe that many people are speculating about the purpose of Ye Yunyang's trip, including Daqin's spies, although the emperor ordered it to be kept secret, no one dared to guarantee that this matter would not be leaked. Attacking Wu for no reason will make people think that he is carrying out an order to cut the domain, at least in a short time, it will play a role in confusing the enemy.

King Wu and the others returned to the palace and waved away the palace maids and eunuchs, and only the three monarchs and ministers were left in the main hall.

King Wu was a little impatient, and the prime minister said unhurriedly: "Your Highness, what happened just now made you lose face, you want to get back face, right?"

King Wu nodded.

The prime minister's face was full of deep meaning, and he asked again: "Then do you just want to teach the surname Ye a lesson, or do you want him to shut up completely?"

King Wu's eyes widened, and he began to think in his heart.

If it was just a lesson to Ye Yunyang, the face would be recovered, so what could it be? The boy surnamed Ye was deeply favored by the emperor and the crown prince, at least in the years that their father and son were in power, he had the opportunity to take revenge on the Wu State, and the emperor's father and son were the loyal executors of the feudal domain, and the Wu State would definitely not have good fruits to eat.

Thinking about this, he thinks that the previous revenge must either not be avenged, and if he wants to revenge, he must be more thorough.

He took a deep breath and said, "The widow wants to shut him up completely, if he dies, the implementation of the Tui En Decree will be affected, and it will also be for the benefit of the other vassal states." It's just that how to kill people has nothing to do with the widow and the Wu State, please speak up. ”

The prime minister touched the beard on his chin and sneered: "It's simple, it's still the same sentence, I don't want the child to find a wolf." ”

King Wu asked, "Who is the child?"

The prime minister replied: "Xiao Tingliang, the Duke of Liangcheng who was stripped of his title." ”

King Wu frowned: "What do you mean?"

"That's right!" The prime minister smiled cruelly and said, "Anyway, he has been stripped of his title by you in public, and he has been expelled from the clan, which means that no matter what he does next, it has nothing to do with the Wu royal family." We can just take this opportunity to send someone to kill Ye Yunyang, and then let Xiao Tingliang carry this black cauldron, he committed suicide to thank the world, you don't have to worry about being burned. ”

Taiwei's eyes lit up, and he said: "Yes, because of Ye Yunyang's complaint, Xiao Tingliang was cut down and expelled by you, he is in a state of anger, and it is very reasonable to send his subordinates to kill people to vent their anger." ”

King Wu frowned, no matter what, Xiao Tingliang was his younger brother.

Seeing that he couldn't make up his mind, the prime minister said coldly: "So, I can't bear to let the child trap or not find the wolf, Your Highness can only make a choice between brother and revenge." If it were me, I would not hesitate to choose the latter, because this brother is so unreasonable, who dares to guarantee that he will not become an excuse for the emperor to cut down the Wu State in the future?"

The prime minister has a grudge against Xiao Tingliang, so he will fall into the ground.

Taiwei and the prime minister were in a group, and helped him speak: "Yes, Your Highness, the existence of Xiao Tingliang has seriously affected the safety of the Wu State, and the emperor will definitely use him as an entry point when he sends someone to cut the feudal domain in the future." He can cause a little trouble today, and he will be willing to cause a monstrous disaster tomorrow, and he can make some contributions to the Wu State before he dies, and it will not be in vain for your preferential treatment of him over the years. ”

After listening to the analysis of the two ministers, Wu Wang's heart was crossed: "Just do what you say, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the widow decided to send Master Taishi to do it himself, he is a martial artist of the Tongyuan Realm, and the two of Ye Yunyang's master and servant are hand-to-hand." ”

"Your Highness is wise. ”
