Chapter 328 Strategizing
He Nuanliang smiled, but his expression was extremely cold, "The concubine has thought about it for a long time, and there is only this one that is quite reasonable." ”
Gu Zhiheng had been listening carefully, and after hearing this last sentence, his eyes suddenly widened, and a few hints flashed between his eyes.
"Why didn't this king think of this?" Gu Zhiheng slapped his thigh fiercely, "If there is something to rely on, things may really be like this." ”
The more Gu Zhiheng thought about it, the more angry he felt, and he couldn't help but sneer: "It's really okay to rely on this." If there is no her, I am afraid that this king has now ascended to the throne of the crown prince. ”
He Nuanliang was naturally very angry about this matter. Originally, I thought that He Suoyi went to the Chu State alone, and it would definitely not have any impact on the Great Zhou. Who knew that he had done so many things in obscurity. Although it is still uncertain whether it is based on what it is doing, it is also a matter of eight or nine.
If it weren't for what they were relying on, how could they be so embarrassed now? The more He Nuanliang thought about it, the more angry he felt, and the cruel color in his eyes was almost impossible to hide. She took a few deep breaths before she calmed down.
He Nuanliang turned his head to look at Gu Zhiheng, and sure enough, the look on Gu Zhiheng's face was also extremely ugly. The current situation is particularly unfavorable for the two.
"What will we do in the future?" After a long time, Gu Zhiheng remembered the most critical question at the moment, and turned his head to ask He Nuanliang.
He Nuanliang hesitated for a while before going, and then he had an idea in his heart, and said to Gu Zhiheng: "Your Highness." The current situation no longer allows us to hesitate. If we wait for the great prince to start, we will be too passive; It's better to strike first and strike first. ”
Gu Zhiheng thought about it carefully, and also felt that what He Nuanliang said was quite reasonable, so he couldn't help but nodded, and his eyes showed a bit of cruelty: "It's okay." Left and right this time, someone must sacrifice first. This king will never be subservient to others, so he can only wronged his eldest brother. ”
With such an idea, Gu Zhiheng immediately decided to take action. It's just that Shen Huo is in the limelight right now, and if he fights head-on, the chance of winning is probably very small. So what should we do?
Gu Zhiheng said all his worries to He Nuanliang, and after He Nuanliang thought about it, his eyes were also a little worried, and he said to Gu Zhiheng with some heaviness: "The current situation, the ministers are obviously on the side of the eldest prince. ”
"But." He Nuanliang paused, and then continued, "You have also accumulated a lot of power before, and although this power is a little weakened now, it will not be eliminated for a while. We can use the original power to wait for the opportunity to move. ”
So the concubine thought in her body and mind that she could hold a banquet in King Wu's mansion. At that time, the ministers who will support His Highness will come to the meeting after receiving the invitation. And those ministers who couldn't come, we also know their thoughts, so be careful to watch out for these in the future. He Nuanliang whispered to Gu Zhiheng and told him his thoughts.
Gu Zhiheng didn't understand a little before, but after he reacted, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he stroked his palms and laughed: "It's really a good idea to be warm." Fortunately, this king will take this opportunity to see who is the wall grass! ”
The two of them had a plan in their hearts, so they naturally didn't hesitate anymore and immediately got ready. First, he carefully prepared a number of invitations, and then sent many small servants in King Wu's mansion to the ministers' mansions who were originally friendly with Gu Zhiheng.
Since it was not early today, the time for this banquet was set for tomorrow. Gu Zhiheng and He Nuanliang's movements were not slow, just tonight, all the ministers who were originally good friends with Gu Zhiheng had an invitation in their hands.
Looking at such invitations, many people's minds are alive. The meaning of Gu Zhiheng's invitation can be said to be very clear, that is, he wants to test it to see how many ministers' hearts are still in him.
In the face of such temptations, different ministers have made different choices. Some ministers who have supported Gu Zhiheng from the beginning, can be said to be ministers from the beginning, although they saw that Gu Zhiheng was a little out of power at this time, they were still unwilling to give up Gu Zhiheng, and they just wanted to assist Gu Zhiheng, so they naturally accepted it gladly, thinking that they would be a guest at King Wu's mansion tomorrow.
There are also some ministers who originally followed Gu Zhiheng out of the idea of seeing the wind and steering the rudder. Now that he sees Gu Zhiheng losing power, he is naturally afraid that he will be implicated, so he can't avoid it. Even if you see these invitations, you should treat them as if you didn't see them, put them aside, and ignore them.
There is a special kind of example in the midst of this wall grass. Some ministers think that the best way to avoid losses is to curry favor with both sides. Therefore, while flattering Shen Huo, they accepted Gu Zhiheng's invitation and decided to go to King Wu's mansion tomorrow.
No matter what these ministers have in their hearts, when the banquet of King Wu is held tomorrow, many ministers will come after all. When the appointed time came, Gu Zhiheng and He Nuanliang sat in the first place, and roughly swept down, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved in their hearts.
I saw that the ministers who came to the banquet this time, although the number of people at the banquet held was a little smaller than the last time, when Gu Zhiheng was proud, it was not a big deal. It seems that there are not a few ministers who support Gu Zhiheng.
With such a thought, Gu Zhiheng suddenly felt a lot of relief, and the depression that was originally stuck in his heart was also reduced a lot. He nodded in satisfaction.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Gu Zhiheng's gaze swept over the ministers sitting at the head of the lower head one by one, and there was a bit of majesty in his eyes, "This time this king convened this banquet, the purpose of inviting the ministers to come, I think you also know a little bit about it." ”
The ministers didn't expect Gu Zhiheng to be so straightforward, and they were all a little stunned for a while, and couldn't help but look at each other. Gu Zhiheng's purpose for calling them here today, the ministers naturally knew a little bit about it, but they didn't dare to rashly guess Gu Zhiheng's thoughts and say Gu Zhiheng's inner thoughts.
Even after listening to Gu Zhiheng's question, all the ministers still didn't dare to be the first bird, and they couldn't help but fall silent.
Gu Zhiheng knew that they were a little hesitant in their hearts, so they were not in a hurry, they just picked up the tea in their hands, took a sip, and waited calmly.
Although Gu Zhiheng looked calm and relaxed, the ministers obviously regarded this matter as a test for them, and they didn't dare to make a sound. After a while, a dense cold sweat broke out on the heads of many ministers.
At this moment, the scene was a little stalemate. No one dared to speak first, but they were silent and waiting. In such a quiet atmosphere, even the sound of an embroidery needle falling on the ground can be heard clearly.
I don't know how long it took for a minister to take the lead in not being able to stand such a silent posture, so he took the initiative to stand up and bowed his hand slightly to Gu Zhiheng.
Although this action is not very big, at this time, when all the ministers are thinking about it, they are trying to see who stands up first. Therefore, all eyes are focused on this minister. Even Gu Zhiheng and He Nuanliang's eyes looked towards the minister.
This minister is usually just an obscure petty official, and he may not be able to be much of a showman in the court. This time, it was just because he was an impatient that he really couldn't stand such a stalemate atmosphere, so he mustered up the courage to stand up.
At first glance, seeing that so many people were focused on him, the minister suddenly felt a little frightened, and secretly complained bitterly, thinking that he should not be so impulsive.
It's just that the arrow is on the bow and has to be sent, even if the minister regrets it in his heart, he has no choice but to reply: "Your Highness." Regarding this matter, Xia Guan had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't know if it was right or not. Your Highness just listened to it and didn't have to care. ”
The look on Gu Zhiheng's face really didn't care, but he waved his hand indifferently and said, "It's okay." If you have any ideas, just say them. Even if he is wrong, this king will never pursue it. ”
After hearing Gu Zhiheng say this, the minister suddenly seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, and his face was a lot calmer. He thought about it carefully, organized his language a little, and then said to Gu Zhiheng carefully.
"You summoned us here, and you must have felt that we were your confidants. This banquet is also to see if we have lived up to your expectations of us, yes and no? The minister said to Gu Zhiheng cautiously, for fear that if he was not careful, he would provoke Gu Zhiheng, and he would not have any good fruit to eat.
Who knows, after Gu Zhiheng heard this, he just stroked his palms and laughed happily, looking extremely satisfied.
"Yes, he's a malleable talent." Gu Zhiheng smiled and praised.
This sentence can really be regarded as out of Gu Zhiheng's sincerity. The minister in front of him, although Gu Zhiheng was a little impressed, he was not very profound. I only know that this minister seems to be a five-grade petty official, and he is usually unknown and not very outstanding.
Who knows, in this banquet, this minister can really be regarded as a newcomer and show a different style. Not only did he guess accurately, but he also considered every sentence of what he said, not only did he not lose Gu Zhiheng's face, but he also quietly praised Gu Zhiheng.
The more Gu Zhiheng thought about it, the happier he became, and he couldn't help but praise the minister and said, "Not bad." This king summoned all the ministers this time, and it was precisely because he felt that all the ministers could be regarded as the king's henchmen, so he took the initiative to summon them. ”
Seeing that Gu Zhiheng not only did not blame himself, but was extremely satisfied with himself, and even followed the words he had just said, the way he said it, the minister's heart was also slightly relaxed, and the stone that was originally heavy on his heart was also slightly put down, showing a somewhat comfortable smile.
