"How is this a good ······?"

"Well, how is it?!"

Liangdu, Suiyang, Liangwang Palace.

In front of the king's couch, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, paced back and forth anxiously, and said again from time to time: This, how is it good.

And not far from the king's couch, there was no figure of Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi, only Han Anguo, the inner history, stood there full of sorrow.

Just stood in place stupidly, watching Liu Wu pacing anxiously for a while, Han Anguo was full of sorrow and took a step forward.

"I heard that Gongsun Wei and Yang Sheng were hidden in the palace by the king?"

Before Han Anguo's words fell, he saw Liu Wu waving his hand irritably, and his tone became more and more anxious.

"It's all at this time, so don't bother the widow with these little things!"

"The widow is really not in time to talk about this with Neishi now!"

As soon as these words came out, Han Anguo immediately knew in his heart, and his gaze at Liu Wu became more and more tragic.

In front of the king's couch, Han Anguo stared at him with this sad gaze, and Liu Wu finally sat back on the king's couch in annoyance, and slapped his thigh inexplicably.

"Alas!"

"This, but how is it good?!"

Another repeated 'how is this good' only made Han Anguo bow his head in grief;

Even the Liang Guoxiang Xuanqiu Leopard, who followed behind Han Anguo and walked into the hall a moment later, couldn't help but sigh.

And this is all because of an incident that happened in Liang Kingdom in the past few days, and on the way from Liang Kingdom to Chang'an······

"What happened in Chang'an, many people were captured alive."

"The court of Chang'an sent a lot of envoys, constantly going back and forth on the road from Chang'an to Liangguo, repeatedly checking the passers-by."

"In the past seven days, there have been ten groups of envoys from the Chang'an Dynasty who have come to Suiyang City; From the ministers downwards, all the officials of the Liang State were repeatedly questioned and investigated by these envoys. ”

"——At the moment, in the entire territory of Liang State, Chang'an is sending a collection of wind and imperial history, searching for Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi."

"It's all come to this, king, do you still want to protect those two······

sighed and said a word, seeing that Liu Wu, the king of Liang, still did not waver in the slightest on his face, Liang Guoxiang Xuan Qiu Leopard finally had to sigh bitterly and bow his head.

The current situation is extremely bad.

Just as Xuanqiu Leopard said: The assassination incident in Chang'an has made the attention of the Chang'an court completely focused on the Liang Kingdom!

Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei, who sent assassins to Chang'an, have been arrested by the court;

In addition to Liu Wu, the king of Liang himself, millions of people up and down the Liang country have all been regarded as 'suspects' by the Chang'an court without exception······

In such a situation, Xuanqiu Leopard and Han Anguo, who know the truth, one as the minister of state and the other as the internal history, really don't know what to do.

Especially after saying Fang Cai's words, but still failed to impress Liu Wu, the king of Liang, Xuan Qiubao, the prime minister of Liang, has fallen into complete despair.

- The princes and kings commit crimes, and the kings have responsibilities that cannot be escaped······

Most of the time, the mistakes made by the princes and kings even require the prime minister to bear the main responsibility!

After all, the princes of the clan still have a 'surname Liu' as a gold medal for avoiding death, and if they do something wrong, they can always justify it: frivolous and ignorant.

But the prime minister could not escape the responsibility of not dissuading and persuading the monarch at all, and often could only carry one black pot after another for his monarch······

"Alas······"

"The king is obsessed, old man, there is no way to do it······"

"Please also Neishi, and persuade the king again······"

Shaking his head and sighing bitterly, he turned around, turned his back to Liu Wu, the king of Liang in front of the king's couch, walked to Han Anguo's side, and softly dropped such a sentence, Liang Guoxiang Xuan Qiu Leopard, and left the palace with a dead heart.

That is, at the same time that Xuanqiu Leopard left, Han Anguo, who was grief-stricken, finally fell to his knees with a 'poof'.

But after kneeling down, Han Anguo did not open his mouth to persuade as Liu Wu expected.

Instead, he just prostrate himself, leaned his forehead lightly against the floor, and sobbed······

"What does Neishi do?"

"Internal history, why bother······"

A little helpless asked, and then sighed with sorrow, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, took a long breath, and his eyes were red in the blink of an eye.

"Xiangguo persuaded the widow because of the widow's sin, and Xiangguo would be punished."

"Neishi, why do you want to persuade the widow again?"

"-Even if the widow is punished, the internal history will never be affected by the widow······"

"Since it won't be implicated, why bother with internal history?"

There was already a little crying voice, but it didn't make Han Anguo rise from the ground.

He only knelt on the ground and sobbed in a low voice: "The minister has heard that the lord is disgraced, and the minister is a sin worthy of death; ”

"The king has no good subordinates, which is why the situation has been disordered to this point."

"Now that you can't catch Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei, and you can't clear the king's name, please let the minister say goodbye to the king and give the minister suicide······"

The mournful tone and the cried sound of liver and intestines finally made Liu Wu, the king of Liang, a little moved.

got up with tears, beckoned to the palace people on the side, and invited Han Anguo to the king's bed.

"The widow did not give due courtesy to Neishi, and even repeatedly rejected Neishi's suggestions, which made Neishi lose face."

"But Neishi did not resentfully the widow because of this;"

"Now you can stay out of the matter, but you still have to persuade the widow and give advice for the widow······"

"Widow, I'm really sorry for the ······ of the internal history"

As he spoke, Liu Wu also got up without pretentiousness and bowed to Han Anguo.

When Han Anguo also got up in a hurry and bowed back to salute, Liu Wucai sat back on the king's couch with a wry smile and smiled miserably at Han Anguo.

"Whatever Neishi wants to say, just say it."

"Anyway, the widow is already a person who is about to die······"

"As long as Neishi says what the widow can do, he will definitely not go against Neishi's wishes······"

Feeling Liu Wu's loss and even some despair, Han Anguo couldn't stop crying, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After crying for a while, Han Anguo took a deep breath and looked at Liu Wu, the king of Liang in front of him, with tears in his eyes.

"The king might as well think about it himself: which is more intimate between the relationship between the king and His Majesty than the relationship between the late Emperor Taishang and Emperor Taizu Gao?"

Hearing this, Liu Wu only smiled dumbly.

"Emperor Taishang Liu Taigong is the widow's great-grandfather, and he is the father of Emperor Taizu Gao."

"And the widow is His Majesty's half-brother."

"The widow has never heard of a brother who has a more intimate relationship than a father-son relationship······

Seeing Han Anguo nodding his head slightly, he sighed leisurely, and sat up straighter again.

"As the king said: the relationship between father and son is always closer than the relationship between brothers."

"The relationship between the late Emperor Taishang and Emperor Taizu Gao is such a father-son relationship."

"But has the king ever thought about it: even if Emperor Taishang is his father, Emperor Taizu Gao, how will he treat Emperor Taishang?"

"——Emperor Taizu Gao once said to Emperor Taishang: I am the one who holds the three-foot sword and takes the world!"

"Therefore, the Emperor Taishang can't be involved in political affairs all his life, and lives in Liyang Palace, and Emperor Taizu Gao only goes to Liyang every five days to visit the Taishang Emperor, and fulfills his son's filial piety······"

···

"Besides, the current King of Linjiang was originally the eldest son of His Majesty, but just because of the fault of his mother's words, he was deposed as the King of Linjiang by His Majesty, and lost the opportunity to become the prince of the prince."

"It is also a close father-son relationship, and Your Majesty has no mercy for King Linjiang."

"Why is this happening?"

"——This is because governing the world, after all, cannot damage public affairs because of personal feelings."

"It is precisely because he is the emperor that Emperor Taizu Gao will treat his father like that; Your Majesty will treat your son like that. ”

···

"I heard that there is a proverb that says so;"

"—even if it's his own father, how do you know that he won't turn into a tiger?"

"—Even if it's a brother, how do you know that he won't turn into a wolf?"

"Now, the king is among the princes, but he has listened to the false words of an evil courtier, violated His Majesty's prohibition, and obstructed the law and order."

"Your Majesty, because of the Queen Mother, can't bear to punish the king with a decree; The Queen Mother cried day and night, hoping that the king could change himself, but the king still can't come to his senses. ”

"If the Queen Mother dies suddenly in the future, who else can the king rely on?"

"I have lost my support, and I have been caught again, my king, how will you be dealt with by Your Majesty······"

Before Han Anguo's words fell, Liu Wu's face was already filled with bitterness.

After hearing these last words, Liu Wu, the king of Liang, only smiled bitterly, and then lowered his head again.

"Widow, why don't you know······"

"How can the widow not know that the widow has done a wrong thing?"

"Don't you know, if you can't rely on the queen mother, the widow won't live long?"

"—but the history of the interior doesn't know······"

"The queen mother has already sent someone to Suiyang to investigate that incident······

Shaking his head and saying a word with a wry smile, the red eyes of Liu Wutong, the king of Liang, finally could no longer hold back the tears, pouring down like spring water.

"If it is just Your Majesty investigating this matter, of course the widow can ignore Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei, and go directly to Chang'an, and ask the queen mother to forgive me for my sins······"

"-But Uncle Na Tian is a person sent by the queen mother~"

"If the queen mother knows that the widow has done such a thing, how can the queen mother continue to pamper me?"

"Lost the favor of the queen mother, widow, how could he be easily let go by His Majesty······"

melancholy, bitterness, and full of sad and helpless crying also made Han Anguo on the side red-eyed again.

Thinking that half a year ago, Liu Wu, who had the opportunity to get involved in the position of the prince and was urged by the Queen Mother to hurry to Chang'an, has now fallen to such a point, Han Anguo always feels that it is he who caused today's situation······

It was because he failed to fulfill his duties as a subordinate that Liu Wu made mistakes again and again, turning the originally extremely favorable situation into what it is now······

But even if he blamed himself and felt guilty, Han Anguo still cheered himself up and raised his head again.

Because Han Anguo knows: Now is not the time to blame himself;

things, there is still one last shred of room for salvage······

"So the king thinks that as long as Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei are not arrested, the king will be fine?"

"Could it be that in this way, the queen mother will not be disappointed in the king, and Uncle Tian can not find out about this matter, it was the king behind the scenes?"

Holding back the tears back to his eyes again, and suppressing the crying in his tone, Han Anguo looked at Liu Wu's gaze, and suddenly brought a touch of seriousness!

But Liu Wu was full of miserable smiles, and slowly shook his head at the long case in front of him.

"Widow, don't know ······"

"The widow does not know what to do to escape the punishment of His Majesty and the Queen Mother······"

"-I just thought that if I could hide Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei in the palace for a little longer, I could be punished by His Majesty and the Queen Mother later;"

"If Your Majesty really plans to kill your relatives in righteousness, and the Queen Mother will no longer let me rely on it, hiding them for a while will always allow the widow to live a few more days·········"

But when he saw Han Anguo hearing this, he shook his head with a solemn expression, and let out a long sigh inexplicably.

stared at Liu Wu directly, and waited until Liu Wu's evasive gaze stayed on him again, and Han Anguo finally pursed his lips and slowly shook his head at Liu Wu.

"The king, it's really a big mistake······

"It's so confusing."

"Does the king really think that His Majesty and the Queen Mother punish the king, do you have to catch Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei before they can do it?"

"—Your Majesty is better, if you can't get definite evidence, you will indeed be in a hurry to punish the king because of his reputation."

"But what about the Queen Mother?"

"Will the Queen Mother not be disappointed in the king because Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei were not caught?"

"If I heard that these two people were harbored by the king, what would the Queen Mother think?"

"The king must know that what the queen mother wants is just the attitude of the king who wakes up and is willing to admit his mistakes······"

"If you don't even have the attitude of admitting your mistakes, how can the Queen Mother be extrajudicial to the king because of the friendship between mother and son?"

"I don't even admit my mistakes, how can the king expect the queen mother to let the king continue to rely on himself······"

These words made Liu Wu, the king of Liang, stunned for a moment, and then fell into a long period of thought.

The current situation really caught Liu Wu off guard, and he was quite in a hurry.

——The assassination of Yuan An, as well as the rest of the courtiers and officials who participated in the discussion of the heir, was originally a decision made by Liu Wu through drunkenness and anger.

After calming down, Liu Wu also vaguely felt a little frightened by his crazy plan!

But in the end, anger prevailed over reason, and Liu Wu acquiesced to the plan.

This plan is set by the self in an uncalm state.

But everything that happened after that was really a bit unexpected by Liu Wu.

Especially now, the entire Liang Kingdom, inside and outside, can be seen everywhere in the history of the Imperial Wind and the messenger of the Son of Heaven, which finally made Liu Wu realize the seriousness of the situation.

Liu Wu finally reacted: what he did would trigger, and how serious the consequences had been······

After that, Liu Wu's first reaction was naturally to kill and not admit it!

With this awareness, the idea of hiding the two 'dirty gloves' of Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi in the harem naturally appeared in Liu Wu's mind.

But after Han Anguo's pointing, Liu Wucai finally ~ Yu finally understood: the current situation does not seem to be able to successfully clear the charge by hiding two dirty gloves······

"What does Neishi mean is that the widow should hand over Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei and admit his crimes?"

The words full of doubts made Han Anguo nod his head without thinking, and quickly shook his head.

"People, the king must be paid."

"—but not the living, only the head!"

"Hand over the heads of Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi, and the king will privately ask the Queen Mother for his guilt and admit his crimes."

"But in front of Your Majesty, the king must not admit it personally: those assassins who went to Chang'an were sent by the king!"

"As long as it is not by the queen mother's side, the king can only say: All this is done by Yang Sheng and Gongsun Wei in private, and it has nothing to do with the king!"

"Unless the Queen Mother really forgives the king, the king must not admit his guilt, and he must not give His Majesty the opportunity to 'strike first'······"

Hearing this, Liu Wu's face, which was still desperate and miserable before, finally emerged with some spirit;

was about to open his mouth to ask again, but when he saw Han Anguo take a breath, he got up from his seat and bowed to Liu Wu.

"The minister has decided to set off in advance and go to Chang'an to find Princess Guantao and dredge up the relationship for the king."

"If you can, when the Hope Minister set off, the heads of Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi have been handed over by the king to the envoy sent by His Majesty."

"When the minister goes to Chang'an and meets Princess Guantao, the minister will send back the news to the king."

"——After receiving the news from the minister, the king set off from Suiyang and went to Chang'an to ask His Majesty for his guilt."

"In this way, Your Majesty is hindered by brotherhood, and the Queen Mother has forgiven the king, even if she intends to condemn the crime, she can only pardon the king's guilt······"

Hearing Han Anguo's indifferent and inexplicably reassuring words, Liu Wu finally stepped forward with gratitude, and held Han Anguo's arm tightly with both hands!

"Neishi treats the widow like this, which really makes the widow ashamed of what he has done in the past!"

"-Neishi, don't worry!"

"The widow will send someone to take the heads of Yang Sheng and Gongsun Yi now, and send them to Uncle Tian!"

"That's right;"

"Neishi goes to Chang'an, and he definitely needs money to be able to run between the high gates."

"—The treasury of the widow was already controlled by the internal history;"

"No matter what you need, as long as you have it in the treasury, you can take it casually!!"
