Chapter 360: The power is monstrous
The air was getting hotter and hotter, and even the wind that blew into the room turned into layers of heat waves coming at them.
Qin Nan's eyes showed a trace of sadness, and he was silent for a long time before he said quietly: "Sister Jing likes the Fifth Prince very much. ”
"There's nothing wrong with liking someone."
"I'm worried that the fifth prince doesn't really treat Sister Jing, but is just using her."
"Maybe the fifth prince just wants to protect himself." Su Shi sighed softly, "If fate can't be changed, Daqian is about to usher in a huge storm." There is only one person who can ascend to the supreme position, and if you are familiar with the history books, you should know the fate of the loser. ”
A woman's heart is really like a needle under the sea, a moment ago she was still worried about Nangong Jing, afraid that the fifth prince would approach her for another purpose, but after hearing Su Shi's words, she couldn't help but defend herself.
"As far as I know, the five princes have never had the heart to fight for power and profit, but are only obsessed with the way of literature, so they can't escape this storm?"
Su Shi said lightly: "Your Majesty used to stay away from the court dispute and concentrate on learning the Tao, but in the end, he didn't add a yellow robe and ascended to the throne. ”
Qin Nan's face changed: "Your Majesty, that's the destiny of heaven." ”
Regarding the words of the destiny of heaven, Su Shi was noncommittal, and said slowly: "Since there are lessons from the past, King Qi and King Zhao will definitely not despise Zhou Qi, and it is even very likely that they will deal with him first, so as not to fight with each other in the end, and the fisherman will benefit." ”
Qin Nan hesitated for a long time, and finally asked softly: "If Your Majesty dies suddenly, you look at King Qi and King Zhao, who can ascend to that supreme position?" ”
"At least I won't choose them."
"Why?"
"Because His Majesty did not choose them." Su Shi smiled helplessly, "The reason why Your Majesty has not yet set up a crown prince is that it is obvious that whether it is King Qi or King Zhao, their character and ability are not enough to lead the great cadres. ”
Qin Nan still felt very puzzled: "But now that it has reached an extraordinary period, isn't Your Majesty worried about what is going on behind you at all?" ”
"No matter who is on the throne, his words and deeds will become more or less unfathomable, and he seems unwilling to let others know his true intentions, so why bother to guess." Speaking of this, Su Shi smiled bitterly, "And if you really figure out Your Majesty's thoughts, it will cause countless troubles." ”
Qin Nan looked directly at him: "So in order to avoid trouble, even if a person finds out His Majesty's thoughts, the best way is to pretend not to know." ”
Su Shi nodded with difficulty, but then sighed: "It's just that some people are born with countless troubles, and they can't hide if they want to." ”
Qin Nan quietly held his hand, his eyes were full of anticipation: "Have you ever thought about leaving the capital?" ”
"I've thought about it." Su Shi squinted at the white swaying sky, "Actually, I have long wanted to leave the capital." ”
Qin Nan gently snuggled up to Su Shi's chest: "I don't like the capital either, why don't we leave the capital?" ”
Su Shi stretched out his hand and stroked her hair, and said slowly: "Your eldest brother is traveling outside, why don't you go to him?" ”
Qin Nan looked up at him: "What about you?" ”
"You know he will never let me out of the capital." Su Shi smiled bitterly, "He has already warned me once. ”
Qin Nan hugged him tightly and said silently: "If you don't go, I won't leave." ”
Su Shi was about to speak, when a sound of footsteps came from outside the door, Qin Nan was shocked, and immediately left Su Shi's embrace, his face involuntarily turned red.
At this time, Lin Mo's voice sounded outside: "Childe." ”
Su Shi sighed and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Lin Mo heard that Gongzi's voice seemed to be full of displeasure, and said softly, "It's time to eat." ”
"So fast?" Su Shi looked at the sky, "It's already noon?" ”
"It's past noon."
Su Shi hurriedly said to Qin Nan: "You just eat here, so as not to run around and make trouble." ”
Qin Nan was about to refuse, but Su Shi said again: "There was an incident last night, and I still have to discuss it with you." ”
If Qin Nan was naturally unwilling in the past, although the two had a marriage contract, they had not yet married, and it was against etiquette to eat at the same table. But now that he is in chaos, his future is uncertain, he is at a loss, he just wants to stay with Su Shi for a while, and he looks down on etiquette.
In addition, Su Shi said that he had something to discuss with her, so Qin Nan blushed and nodded lightly.
Seeing that Qin Nan was willing to stay, Su Shi hurriedly instructed Lin Mo: "Send the food to the study." ”
After Lin Mo left, Qin Nan couldn't help but ask, "What happened last night?" ”
The two sat down at the desk, and Su Shi recounted to Qin Nan in detail his experience at the Supreme Casino last night.
During this period, Lin Mo brought food, and by the way, he also brought a pot of wine. Su Shi poured himself a drink while narrating, and Qin Nan had been listening silently.
After Su Shi finished narrating, Qin Nan couldn't help but ask: "Is there really a decree that soldiers in the army are not allowed to engage in business?" ”
Su Shi nodded: "When Her Royal Highness the princess came down, I had already asked her for verification. ”
Qin Nan was concerned and couldn't help but look at him in fear: "Then aren't you violating this decree?" ”
Su Shi smiled: "Have you forgotten who gave the name of Qianqiu Firm?" I'm in business. ”
Qin Nan then remembered that the word Qianqiu was given by His Majesty, and a red cloud rose on his face, and he hurriedly asked, "Then will you agree to their request for cooperation?" ”
"Do you think I should work with them?"
Seeing Su Shi's solemn expression, Qin Nan also knew that this matter was not trivial, and thought about it seriously.
Suddenly, her expression moved, and she asked, "Why would anyone target the Supreme Casino?" ”
"That's what I want to know, who is going to target the Supreme Casino? Why is it targeting the Grand Casino? And if you don't target it sooner or later, you will choose it at this time. ”
Qin Nan continued: "If the back of the Supreme Gambling House is really the five major camps in the capital, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can move. ”
Su Shi said: "That's why the Supreme Gambling House will stand in the capital for eight years without falling. ”
"But now not only do some people want to move the Supreme Gambling House, but also make the people of the five camps throw rat traps, which shows that this person is powerful in the capital."
"The only thing that can be so powerful can be the King of Qi and the King of Zhao."
Qin Nan shook his head: "It can't be them." ”
"Why?"
Qin Nan said slowly: "If Pei Xun really leaked the news of His Majesty, then King Qi and King Zhao would not have time to win over the five major battalions, and it would be impossible to target them at this time." ”
Su Shi smiled bitterly: "But the people who can make the five major battalions so scruples, except for King Qi and King Zhao, I can't think of anyone else." ”
Qin Nan sighed: "You should think of it." ”
Su Shi was silent for a long time with his wine glass, and finally said with a wry smile: "If this person is really His Majesty, I really don't know what he wants to do." ”
