Chapter 314: Not Afraid of Death, Still Afraid of Living?

"What do you want to say when Gongzi retreats left and right and talks to a certain person in Tingwei Prison alone?"

A moment later, in the barely spacious and bright cell, only Liu Sheng and Zhou Yafu were left sitting opposite each other.

It's just that Liu Sheng didn't expect that the first person to speak was actually a stubborn cow who was even more stubborn than the old prime minister in the past, the old Anhou Shentu Jiadu: Tiaohou Zhou Yafu······

"If you come to see the jokes, then the son can leave."

"I, Zhou Yafu, are doing right, and I can sit upright."

"What you haven't done, even if you die and the clan is wiped out, you will never give in!"

···

"If it comes to this point, Childe still wants my approval, then dispel this idea as soon as possible."

"I may have a hard time carrying this catastrophe."

"Even if the prince is not worthy of the position, he is already in the position of the prince of the prince, so why bother talking to a dying person like me?"

Before Liu Sheng could recover from the surprise of 'Zhou Yafu actually spoke first', Zhou Yafu had already taken the opportunity to say everything in his heart;

Although after Zhao Yu left the cell, Zhou Yafu was obviously calmer and his tone was relatively calmer, but after saying these words in one go, this stubborn cow still did not forget to pin his body a little, as if he wanted to show his determination to 'never be in the same room with the prince who was crowned by the monkey'.

was disrupted by Zhou Yafu's unexpected preemptive opening, and several sets of abdominal drafts that Liu Sheng had previously made committed suicide were in vain;

But no matter what, today's Liu Sheng has also been the prince of the Han Dynasty for more than two years or nearly three years.

After only a short period of consternation, a whole set of contingency strategies quickly emerged in Liu Sheng's mind.

"Tiaohou's reaction really didn't surprise me at all······"

When he opened his mouth, it was a sentence that was extremely contrary to his heart, and the expression on Liu Sheng's face had quickly adjusted back from his previous state of shock.

And Liu Sheng's next performance made Zhou Yafu a little stunned for a while.

- Is this really the victory of the ninth son of the emperor who is "unworthy of virtue" and "crowned by the monkey"?

Is it really back then, when he didn't agree with him, he smashed the eyes of the general of the court, but he didn't think of it at all?

Instead of those years, it was more recognized by the community······

"Tiaohou, maybe I'm mistaken, right?"

"Lonely, it is the ninth son of the emperor who is straightforward and upright in everything;"

"Even in the past few years, there have always been elders and sages who have taught me: Those who are in high positions cannot be so without a city government, and I still haven't been able to get rid of this 'problem'."

"So there's no need to speculate."

"-Although he is not a martial artist like Tiaohou, he is also the bloodline heir of Emperor Taizu Gao after all;"

"Even if you don't have the arrogance of a martial artist, but the demeanor of the emperor's relatives and clansmen, and the body of the prince of the lonely prince, he will not fall behind in front of the guilty ministers of the marquis."

"Tiaohou, do you think so?"

has no stage fright, and even responds to Zhou Yafu's title of 'son' in a-for-tat, and by the way, he shows his attitude of 'not beating around the bush', Liu Sheng looked at Zhou Yafu's gaze, and he also wore a touch of time.

And Liu Sheng's next words also show that this is a good time, not pretended by Liu Sheng.

At a meeting today, to what extent and what results have been achieved with Zhou Yafu, Liu Sheng can accept it calmly······

"I don't hide it."

"I came here today, I didn't really have anything to say, I wanted to talk to Tiaohou."

"It's because of the 'guilty and entered the court' with the Marquis of Tiao, as well as the brother of my mother's compatriots: Liu Pengzu, the king of Zhao."

"—At this moment, King Zhao is kneeling under the long steps outside the Changxin Palace, praying for the forgiveness of the imperial grandmother."

"As for me, I just don't want to see my brother suffer like this, and I can only stand by and watch, so I specially find something to do for myself."

···

"In other words: Lone today doesn't have to come to this court lieutenant prison."

"In addition to Tingwei Prison, Lone can also go to Shanglin to inspect the affairs of the Shaofu Army's workshop, or go to a county around Chang'an to go around the market to see if the price of grain is out of order, and whether there are other miscellaneous money circulating among the people in addition to the four baht money."

"-Lone can even do nothing, just nest in the womb and shut up;"

"What's more, if you don't take into account the boiling of things, Lone can sneak out of Chang'an and play everywhere in the land of Sanqin."

"What are the consequences of this, others may not know;"

"But as the son of Zhou Bo, the Marquis of Jiangwu, Tiaohou, it couldn't be clearer······"

Liu Sheng talked eloquently, and even had some old friends, or the easy-going and casual chatter of the old people in the countryside, but Zhou Yafu was dull for a while and fell into a long silence.

Although he was very reluctant to admit it, Zhou Yafu knew very well in his heart: Liu Shengfang's words, let alone a 'lie', he couldn't even pick out a 'fake word'!

This court lieutenant prison, does Liu Sheng have to come?

Zhou Yafu didn't understand Liu Sheng's intentions, although he couldn't be sure for the time being, what Zhou Yafu could figure out was: Even if he didn't come to this Tingwei prison today, or even if Zhou Yafu died here because of this, for Liu Sheng, there would be no loss at all.

As for what Liu Sheng said, 'I can't bear to see my brother suffer, but I can't do anything', Zhou Yafu is also an old minister - even if he is not good, he is an 'old man', and he will not be able to hear the meaning beyond the words.

Although the words were not too clear, what Liu Sheng really wanted to say was: King Zhao is going to Changle Palace to be scolded, I am not very convenient to interfere, and if I don't interfere, it is easy to tell the truth, saying that the prince 'sits on the truth and his brother suffers and turns a blind eye';

Therefore, Liu Sheng needs to find something to do for himself casually, but fortunately, in the future, when someone asked, 'When King Zhao was scolded, why didn't the prince help to intercede', Liu Sheng was able to say without a heart: Ah, that day, I had something to do that day, I was busy, I couldn't take care of it······

As for the several choices listed by Liu Sheng, Zhou Yafu had no way to refute them at all.

-- As the main person in charge of the quantity and price control work in Shaofu and the initiator of the grain in the Guanzhong of the Shaofu government, Liu Sheng can of course walk around the vicinity of Chang'an, and he can say in the beautiful name: to inspect the rise and fall of grain prices.

In the same way: as the person directly responsible for the unification of the currency value, Liu Sheng can also go around to see whether the government's policy of 'exclusively issuing four baht coins' has been implemented in the local government.

As for nesting in the imperial womb, of course, it is also Liu Sheng's right - a sentence of 'the prince is unwell, and he will be closed to recuperate'.

And Liu Sheng's last mention of going out of the palace, out of Chang'an, and even carnival in the entire land of Guanzhong, does sound a little appalling;

But as Liu Sheng said: Others may not know the urine of the old Liu family, but as the son of Marquis Zhou Bo, it is impossible for Marquis Zhou Yafu not to know······

Needless to say, just cite a past event that happened in previous years and has a high probability of going down in history, you can see what the attitude of Lao Tzu, the emperor of the Lao Liu family, is towards similar things.

——As everyone knows, when Ziqi was still the crown prince today, he was caught by Zhang Shizhi, the court lieutenant at the time, because of the act of 'returning late from going out to play, mistakenly missing the palace ban, and trying to enter the palace by car'.

In the end, even the first emperor had to come forward, take off his hat and apologize in front of Zhang Shizhi, and begged pitifully: My son is not sensible, it's me who didn't educate well, for the sake of my old face, don't embarrass my son anymore······

asked the emperor Lao Tzu to take off his hat and apologize, and after the prince at that time announced it, of course, he was inevitably beaten;

Inheriting the throne in the future, Tianzi Qi is also very 'logical' to settle accounts after the autumn, and kicked Zhang Shiyi to Huainan to be the king, so that he can't see it and don't worry about it.

- Even this, it is still under the premise that Zhang Shizhi consciously 'has insufficient life balance', and preemptively bows his head to the Son of Heaven and apologizes!

And back then, the reason why Tianziqi 'went out to play and missed the palace ban', and even rushed into the palace by car, of course, was not because he went somewhere in Chang'an City, which was a big palm.

That time, Tianzi Qi was also the same as every time in the past, and every time since: it was Liu Wu, a good brother who was a brother and sister, who went to Weibei to carnival······

"Since Your Highness prides himself on being a cheerful person, let's have something to say."

"Why bother with all these old things?"

"Could it be that in the eyes of His Highness, can I still talk and reminisce with others in my current situation?"

After a long period of thinking, Zhou Yafu, who had never been able to find a counterattack point, had to forcibly divert the topic with a loud voice;

In this regard, Liu Sheng did not feel unhappy, and only followed Zhou Yafu's words and continued: "I just said: I don't have to come to this Tingwei prison. ”

"It's not so much that I'm here specifically to come to Tingwei Prison, but it's better to say that I'm really idle, and I heard that Tiaohou seems to have encountered some trouble, so I stopped by to take a look."

"Seeing Tingwei's actions against Tiaohou again, I started from scratch and gave birth to three or two sentences, and I wanted to talk and talk to Tiaohou about it······"

Simply expressing his attitude, Liu Sheng no longer beat around the bush, and went straight to the point.

"Tingwei Zhao Yu was the official who worked in the Prime Minister's Mansion when the Marquis was the prime minister."

"As the 'old man' of the Tiaohou, he can not be affected after the Tiaohou loses power, and even the official is among the nine kings, which shows that this person is extraordinary."

"Such an 'extraordinary' person, the Marquis of the year, should not be unfamiliar and unfamiliar?"

···

"In that case, what kind of person Zhao Yu is, Tiao Hou won't not understand."

"——Zhao Yu is honest, arrogant, proficient in the law, and disdainful of interacting with people."

"Although he is not a noble person, he is by no means a person who takes advantage of the danger of others and falls into the well, and even uses the victim as a ladder of advancement."

"Why doesn't that Tiaohou want to think: Zhao Yu, who shouldn't have done this, why did he treat the current Tiaohou like this?"

"What is it, or what kind of person can force Zhao Yu to go against his heart and do such a thing that will take revenge and harsh the benefactor?"

"The family of Putian, there are only five fingers of people who can have such power."

"According to the knowledge of the Hou, you can't guess who this person is, right?"

The almost explicit 'obscure' words provoked Zhou Yafu to take another deep breath repeatedly, not only to press the anger caused by hearing the word 'Zhao Yu', but also to really realize his dangerous situation.

Liu Sheng didn't care about anything else, he only continued to take care of himself: "What kind of secret armor shield, what kind of plot to rebel, Gu knows it in his heart, Tiao Hou knows it in his heart, and anyone with a clear eye can also see it." ”

"It is not the five hundred armor shields that will take their lives;"

"As for what ······ is"

"——This cowardly person is not a young minister."

"—the one who coerced;"

"-No, the young lord is also ······"

After Liu Sheng's continuous high-rated language bombardment, Zhou Yafu finally put aside his resentment against 'Gongzi Sheng'.

And in this sentence 'This cowardly, not a young lord and minister' came into his ears, especially when it came into his ears for the second time, Liu Sheng clearly saw Zhou Yafu's previously turbid, scarlet, and angry eyes, and in an instant, only a piece of clarity remained.

And in that piece of clarity, there is still a lot of sighs and helplessness that flash from time to time······

"Minister, why don't you know······"

···

"Minister! Don't know! ”

"Why don't you know that the old life of the important minister is the one who is stinging with this sentence, not the young minister?!

···

"Why don't you know: the minister, the 'cowardly', is not the young master of the minister, but His Royal Highness······"

was full of loneliness, extreme helplessness, and never forgot to have a firm and complex tone, which also made Liu Sheng dumb for a while;

Zhou Yafu shook his head and sighed for thirty or fifty breaths, then raised his head and smiled at Liu Sheng'er.

"Although His Royal Highness is not the eldest prince, he is definitely a smart person."

"—or should I say: Your Highness, this prince, Your Majesty, is teaching well······"

···

"What is the minister insisting on, a smart person like His Royal Highness will not not understand."

"And what Your Majesty is worried about, of course the minister can understand."

"It's just that even so, minister, I still can't let go of my heart······"

"Minister, I'm very afraid;"

"I'm scared of it;"

"I don't know what I'm afraid of, and I can't sleep."

"It's hard to sleep and eat~~~"

shook his head again and sighed bitterly, and the self-deprecating smile on Zhou Yafu's face turned into boundless vicissitudes;

When it came to this, Liu Sheng finally put away the smile on his face, and even straightened up quite solemnly.

"Tiaohou, what are you afraid of?"

"What else is there in this world that can make Tiaohou so frightened?"

···

"Just now, Tiao Hou himself said: If this catastrophe is irresistible, it is likely that he will not be able to save his life, but even so, Tiao Hou will never back down."

"That Hou, what else is there to be afraid of?"

"- What else would a person who is not afraid of death be afraid of??"

"People who are not even afraid of death, are they still afraid of living??????
