Chapter 186: The Fate of Surrendering to the Minister
The second prince has too many flowery intestines, but he is an unbearable character.
If it weren't for Qin Zhongyi's guidance behind him, and the former prince Li Yunxing was addicted to pleasure, he might have been killed a long time ago.
"Yoo Jae-fu, you misunderstood, this is not what this palace meant."
"Oh, what do you mean by the second prince?"
The second prince paused and continued, "The juniors want Yoo Jae-fu to help secretly, expose the prince's conspiracy, and let the juniors inherit the unification. ”
"Well, the minister is stupid, I don't quite understand what the second prince means?"
The second prince raised his eyebrows, and his face turned a little colder, "Liu Zaifu, you are a smart person, you have fought wits and courage with the prince in the court all these years, and the palace has turned a blind eye." ”
"Now that my father is critically ill and the government is temporarily replaced by the crown prince, I guess Lord Zaifu also has a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, right?"
"I don't dare." Liu Zhongqing said lightly.
What kind of thing is this Li Yuntian, he dares to shout in front of him, he is really tired and crooked.
Could it be that these stinky little dolls still want to force themselves to give way?
The second prince looked at Liu Zhongqing's attitude, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the cold light flashed.
It's just that at this moment, Li Yuntian changed to a flattering attitude, which was a kind of temptation.
Test Liu Zhongqing's confidence, whether he is willing to condescend to others and help him sit on the throne.
Now it seems that the move was the right one.
"Liu Zaifu, you are a smart person, I don't dare to pretend to be a world-class hero in front of you, my talent and ability, Zaifu must be clear about it after being an official in the court for many years. The current prosperity of the Wu Dynasty is inseparable from your credit. ”
"It can be said that since the founding of the Wu Dynasty, only Liu Zaifu can be regarded as the only unparalleled national warrior in the world."
Li Yuntian praised people and did not hesitate to praise his praise.
Although there are some exaggerated elements in the words, Liu Zhongqing feels that it is also in his ears.
After all, when they first met, Li Yuntian still learned the prince's style, calling himself "Bengong" in front of him to improve his posture.
Now seeing that the other party didn't buy it, he lowered his identity again, and changed his claim to "me".
This is sincere in the relationship between the prince and the minister.
Liu Zhongqing didn't want to ruin the relationship between them because of a trivial matter, so he smiled and said: "The second prince has won the award, and the old man is just loyal to the king." ”
Li Yuntian shook his head and said seriously: "Liu Zaifu is humble, and no one can erase your merits, this is an indisputable fact. ”
"Only the crown prince and others who have no one in their eyes will think that they can replace you and become the sage and sage of the Wu Dynasty!"
Compared with Su Zhaoyang, Li Yuntian is not only sleek and sophisticated, but also knows how to win people over.
After wandering around the court for so long, it's not for nothing.
At least he knows very well that if he wants to get the right, he must first get Liu Zhongqing's support.
That's why he tried his best to show favor to the other party.
When Liu Zhongqing heard this, he sighed lightly, turned his head to look at a pool of blue waves, and said melancholy, "Hey...... Does the second prince know the secret recipe of fish farming? ”
Following the other party's line of sight, Li Yuntian looked at the fish pond.
Liu Zhongqing held the feeding bait in his hand but did not throw it down, just watched the fish frantically churn up and down, occasionally throwing a piece of fish food.
"How to raise fish?" Li Yuntian was puzzled.
Liu Zhongqing scattered the bait farther away, and this time the fish swam into the distance and could not be found again.
"You see, these fish, the old man thinks that they recognize me as the master, so they surround the old man's side, obedient and well-behaved like pets."
After listening to Liu Zhongqing's words, Li Yuntian suddenly remembered the biography he had read, which described that the fish surrounded the fisherman, and even some fish would touch the fisherman's hand with their bodies.
But the fisherman always dislikes the fish in the way, so whenever the fish approaches, he swings his rod to drive them away.
Li Yuntian suddenly understood Liu Zhongqing's mood.
He looked at Liu Zhongqing and slowly spit out two words: "Interests." ”
Liu Zhongqing smiled, "Yes, these fish are indeed around me for profit." ”
"They're a bunch of idiots who just want to eat for their mouths and don't care about the world."
"They have never considered their existence, so what kind of threat does they pose to the community?"
The old man beckoned to them and went away. It seems to be serving the old man and pleasing the old man, but in fact, it is just for the food in the old man's hands. ”
"If one day, the old man has no food in his hands, will they still do this?"
"Since ancient times, the emperor's family, how can there be family and friendship, but it is all driven by interests."
This Liu Zhongqing seems to be talking about fish, but he is actually talking about the lackeys who are chasing Liu Zhongqing on the surface.
The crown prince did not serve as the prince of the prison country, they were just the fish in Liu Zhongqing's pond, always revolving around him, following him, and flattering him vigorously.
Now seeing that the prince is in power, many people have run out to jump off the beam, wanting to take the opportunity to take a bite and get some sweetness.
Li Yuntian nodded, "Liu Zaifu said very well, if the Wu Dynasty is really such a pool of troubled waters, then the Wu Dynasty will be destroyed sooner or later, and it will no longer be glorious in the past." ”
He wanted to tell Li Yuntian that if he came to pretend to curry favor with him and flatter him just for the little interests in his hands, then this road was destined to fail.
"But ......," Li Yuntian stopped talking.
Liu Zhongqing asked, "But what?" ”
"But if I were a fish farmer, I wouldn't be so worried." Li Yuntian suddenly laughed.
Liu Zhongqing frowned, "What do you mean by the second prince?" ”
Li Yuntian said mysteriously: "Prime Minister Liu might as well take a closer look, are the fish in this fish pond different from other places?" ”
"Oh?" Liu Zhongqing was puzzled and looked at the school of fish.
Aside from the fact that these fish are valuable species that he buys at a high price, what else is so special?
At this time, the second prince continued.
"These fish are fish that have been kept in captivity, and they are born with the fate of subservience."
"And they can't get out of this little pond or out of my hands."
"I will give birth to them, and they will begot. I want them to die, and they will die. This taste of manipulating it is exciting and fascinating. Li Yuntian's tone was full of pride and pride.
This is completely different from Liu Zhongqing's previous thoughts.
He raised these fish to please himself, but he never thought that Li Yuntian would say this.
"Are you trying to ...... these fish" Liu Zhongqing frowned, his face gloomy.
Li Yuntian said with a bright smile: "It's exactly what Liu Zaifu wants, isn't it?" I think that in this way, the territory of the Wu Dynasty will be impregnable. ”
