Chapter 259: Counting is Counting
"Let me ask to see Your Majesty in private?" Qin Zhidao didn't know what he meant, so he asked, "What does the virtuous nephew mean by this?" ”
At this time, the bright moon covered by dark clouds, the sky and the earth suddenly darkened, and Su Shi's face also disappeared into the night.
A sigh sounded under the night: "Although I seem to be complacent and beautiful now, I am actually on the cliff and in an extremely dangerous situation. King Qi and King Zhao are not idiots, they are even more talented, it is impossible not to see this. ”
"They may have wanted to go head-to-head with me before, but now they realize that they are no match for me in business, and that the forces that depend on them are falling apart, so I think they will do it against me soon."
Hearing this, Qin Zhidao was shocked: "The virtuous nephew means ......"
Because he was so frightened in his heart, he didn't even have the courage to say this sentence in its entirety.
Although he didn't finish his words, Su Shi understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "It's not what Uncle Qin thinks, my identity is there, and they don't dare to do anything too out of the ordinary." ”
Qin Zhidao calmed down, and then thought about it carefully, and also felt that Su Shi's analysis was very reasonable. Since Su Shi was not worried about his life, he was relieved and let out a long sigh.
At this time, Su Shi sighed again: "Although my life is not in danger, as long as they make a move, I will be in a place of no return." ”
Qin Zhidao was shocked again: "They actually have such vicious methods? ”
Su Shi looked very bland: "The shopping mall is like a battlefield, as long as you can defeat the opponent, you will naturally do everything, so there is nothing strange about it." If I change places, I will do the same, and I will never give the other party a chance to turn over. ”
"And the crisis I am about to find myself in can only be solved by His Majesty, so I will ask my uncle to ask to see Your Majesty in private."
Qin Zhidao looked at him with a puzzled expression: "Why didn't the virtuous nephew ask to see Your Majesty in person?" Since Your Majesty is willing to stand behind the virtuous nephew, with the ability of the virtuous nephew, he will naturally be able to persuade His Majesty to resolve this crisis. Why do I need to convey it in it? ”
Su Shi said slowly: "Because I still want to do it." But now my every move will be under the watchful eye of those who are interested in it, and if I go to see His Majesty, they will certainly be suspicious, and this will certainly be greatly diminished. ”
Qin Zhidao muttered: "In this way, the virtuous nephew already knows how the two princes are going to deal with you?" And the virtuous nephew also has a way to deal with it? ”
Su Shi nodded: "It's actually a good thing for me that they're dealing with me now, because I also just want to wait for the rabbit." ”
Qin Zhidao didn't understand what Su Shi meant, but he didn't seem to have the meaning to elaborate, so Qin Zhidao had to give up.
"How do you want me to help you?"
At this time, Su Shi took out a letter from his bosom and said slowly: "When my uncle asks to see Your Majesty in private, give this letter to Your Majesty, and after Your Majesty reads it, he will naturally understand my plan, and he also knows what to do." ”
Su Shi solemnly handed over the letter to Qin Zhidao, and continued to instruct: "Don't let others know that this letter is written by me to Your Majesty, and the content of the letter can only be known to Your Majesty. ”
Qin Zhidao took the letter, his mood suddenly became nervous, and then he suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Su Shi: "The virtuous nephew and Princess Pingle have a good relationship, why don't you let Princess Pingle pass it on to Your Majesty?"
Su Shi sighed lightly: "Because this plan can't be known to her." ”
Qin Zhidao looked at Su Shi in surprise, because no one in the capital now knew that Princess Pingle and Su Shi were in the same camp, and he could even turn against the two imperial brothers for him.
And the relationship between Princess Pingle and Su Shi can't help but make people think about it, in some very private and secret occasions, some people will inevitably mention them very vaguely, and those who hear it will naturally understand.
Now Su Shi is acting to hide it from her, although Qin Zhidao doesn't know why, but this is enough to surprise him.
"Could it be that the virtuous nephew and Princess Pingle have something to do?"
If Su Shi and Zhou Jin really had a hard time, it would not be good news for Su Shi. In Qin Zhidao's view, the reason why Su Shi is now able to have a smooth ride is that His Majesty's support, intentionally or unintentionally, is crucial, but more importantly, Princess Pingle's trust in him.
The bright moon shuttled among the dark clouds, and Su Shi's face became cloudy.
Qin Zhidao stared at him for a long time, and when he saw that he never spoke, he suddenly remembered something in his heart, and couldn't help but ask: "Is it because of the matter of begging Yuanlu to ask for a kiss?" ”
Su Shi's heart moved, and he asked rhetorically: "What does uncle think about Qi Yuanlu's begging for marriage?" ”
Qin Zhidao muttered: "Presumably, the virtuous nephew has also heard that Qi Yuanlu asked His Majesty to marry Princess Pingle three years ago. ”
Su Shi nodded: "I have heard of it, and I also heard that His Majesty categorically refused." ”
"Princess Qi Yuanlu passed away four years ago, and a year later, Qi Yuanlu asked His Majesty to marry Princess Pingdong. The reason why His Majesty categorically refused was that Princess Pingle and the prince were brothers and sisters of the same mother, and the prince also loved Princess Pingdong, and taught her carefully, and even the title of Her Royal Highness the princess was taken by the prince. After the death of the crown prince, His Majesty was even more fond of Princess Pingle, how could he marry her to Hudi. ”
Although Su Shi had already heard about this from Zhou Jin, he still did not interrupt Qin Zhidao's words.
"Moreover, Princess Pingle was influenced by the crown prince and also had a certain talent for business, and at that time she helped King Qi and King Zhao manage their business, so King Qi and King Zhao also tried their best to oppose it. Since the King of Qi and the King of Zhao were opposed, the ministers of the court naturally did not approve of it, so His Majesty categorically refused. ”
In the end, Qin Zhidao reminded vaguely: "The reason why Your Majesty is hesitant now is not unrelated to King Qi and King Zhao, Princess Pingle does not hesitate to oppose them for your sake, and they naturally want to weaken your help." ”
After listening quietly, Su Shi sighed lightly: "I can't figure out two questions now, one is why did Qi Yuanlu propose marriage again at this time?" Second, why did Your Majesty suddenly have the intention of making peace? ”
"Let's not mention Your Majesty's favor for the princess, Your Majesty knows that what Princess Pingle is doing is for the sake of Daqian, and now is the critical time, wouldn't it be self-defeating to marry Princess Pingle to Hudi at this time."
Qin Zhidao also felt a little strange when he heard it, he stroked his beard and couldn't speak for a long time.
"Qi Yuanlu asked to marry Princess Pingle again, although it can be explained that he coveted the princess's beauty, so that his thief heart would not die, but the time when he sent the envoy to Beijing was too coincidental, it was when Pei Xun wanted to disturb the capital, which could not help but make people suspicious."
Qin Zhidao frowned and said: "From what the virtuous nephew can see, Qi Yuanlu sent an envoy to Beijing not simply to marry a princess, but has other plans?" ”
Su Chang sighed: "I have never believed in too much coincidence, so I think the real purpose of Qi Yuanlu is not so simple. ”
