Chapter 391: Watching from the Wall
"What is Bae Hyun's purpose?"
"Quite simply, it's about creating chaos." Su Shi said slowly, "At least one-third of the ordinary people in the capital have invested all their belongings in Agarwood Hall, Tianbao Pavilion and Hongsifang, and some have even mortgaged their own properties and borrowed from relatives and friends. Once the money is lost, coupled with someone secretly instigating, it is very likely to set off a storm in the capital, and even turmoil will occur. ”
"If the territory of Daqian is stable, even if this matter breaks out, it will not get out of control. But now that the palace is under martial law, it is obvious that something big has happened, but I am afraid that the whole court is panicking, and no one will pay attention to this matter at all. ”
"The battle for the throne is also a storm, these two storms are superimposed, coupled with the secret sabotage of foreign forces, I really can't imagine its destructive power."
Qin Nan's eyes also became extremely worried, because even if he didn't know what was going on in the palace now, judging from the current situation, it was definitely not optimistic, and it was even very likely that earth-shaking changes would occur.
The imperial court is shaking, the people are in turmoil, and the foreign races are eyeing each other, and the situation is only afraid that it will really be out of control.
But then she looked at Su Shi suspiciously, because there was one thing she couldn't figure out.
"Since you already have a way to deal with the Agarwood Hall, why don't you use it? Instead, he wanted to use it to talk to Du Ziru about the conditions, so that he let Jiang Feng go. ”
In her opinion, if she could prevent this storm from happening, even sacrificing Jiang Feng's life would not be a big deal.
Su Shi naturally understood her thoughts, and just sighed: "Because it hasn't reached that point yet." ”
"Why?"
"As long as the silver remains in the capital, it can be seized at any time to calm this storm."
Qin Nan didn't agree with his point of view: "Aren't you afraid of long nights and dreams?" ”
Su Shi suddenly became silent, and unconsciously picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. Qin Nan's face suddenly turned red again, because the cup that Su Shi picked up was her teacup.
But then she settled down and continued: "And now you have told Du Ziru the original strategy of the countermeasure, are you not worried that they will come up with another trick?" ”
Su Shi didn't answer her, just smiled at her.
Qin Nan looked at Su Shi with a sly smile, and suddenly came to his senses.
"Did you deliberately tell Du Ziru what to do?"
"I really don't intend to hide it from them."
Qin Nan blurted out: "Why? ”
"I also want to know what they can do to deal with it when they learn that I have a way to deal with them."
Qin Nan still couldn't understand, and continued to ask: "You could have prevented it before it happened, why did you indulge them?" Do you not hear that the enemy is in trouble? ”
Su Shi put down the teacup and said slowly: "Now it's a matter of moving the whole body." Because I didn't know what was going on in the palace, I didn't dare to act rashly. ”
"Although we know that the Agarwood Hall is a scam, but now that they have not revealed their deception, they will inevitably be truthful if they rashly withhold the silver. If you are beaten by the Agarwood Hall again, the gains will outweigh the losses. ”
"A rake?"
Su Shi immediately explained: "In the eyes of the people, Agarwood Hall is like their cash cow, how could they have thought that this is a scam." At this time, once the money is seized, it is necessary to give the people an explanation. And to expose the scam of Agarwood Hall, it is not possible to do it in a short time. In this way, this money will become a hot potato, and even become the fuse of the change of the situation. ”
"And before the deception is revealed, Agarwood Hall will definitely spread rumors and attribute all the blame to the imperial court. I am afraid that the vast majority of people will believe their words, so why should we bother to provoke the fire. ”
Qin Nan's eyes became a little strange, and she slowly shook her head: "It's not right." ”
"What's wrong?"
Qin Nan said calmly: "Since you can think of this, it is impossible for Du Ziru not to think of it, why should he be coerced by you?" ”
Su Shi was speechless for a while, and seemed unable to answer Qin Nan's question.
Seeing that Su Shi was silent, Qin Nan couldn't help but sigh: "Since you can see through this at a glance that this is a scam, there is naturally a way to deal with it, so the concerns you mentioned just now should not exist for you." What I don't understand is that the situation has become so tense at the moment, why haven't you made a move, what are you really thinking? ”
Su Shi was silent for a long time, and finally looked up at Qin Nan, and his expression became extremely bitter.
"I met the crown princess, and the crown princess said that Zhong Lichuan was His Majesty's person, and the crown princess also vaguely said that the death of the crown prince was inseparable from Zhong Lichuan."
Qin Nan's face instantly turned extremely pale, because she understood the meaning of Su Shi's words. If the death of the crown prince has anything to do with His Majesty, then Su Shi's situation has become extremely dangerous.
However, things were far more dangerous than she imagined, only to hear Su Shi say: "And even if Pei Xun's hexagram will not be wrong, Your Majesty only has two months left to live, no matter whether King Qi ascends the throne or King Zhao gets the world, they will definitely not let me go." ”
"Because I don't want to be controlled." Su Shi looked at Qin Nan and smiled reluctantly, "You are familiar with history books, you should know that there is only one fate for this kind of person, and no emperor will tolerate a person in this world who even they can't control." ”
Qin Nan lowered her head silently, because she knew that Su Shi was telling the truth, and no matter what Su Shi did now, in the end, he would face a dead knot that could not be untied.
Suddenly, she suddenly raised her head and stared straight at Su Shi: "Since you can see the current situation clearly, there must be a solution, right?" ”
Su Shi nodded slowly.
"What's the solution?"
"Watch from the wall, fish in troubled waters, and the fisherman will get it."
Before Qin Nan could speak, Su Shi had already explained: "So before the situation is clear, if the Agarwood Hall releases Jiang Feng, I will not interfere." ”
"Although the safety of Daqian is very important, for me, my life is even more important."
Qin Nan asked softly, "What about the interests of the people in the capital?" Are you just going to let it go? ”
Su Shi said lightly: "I have instructed the secret guards to stare at the silver deceived by the Agarwood Hall, as long as the silver is still in the capital, I can seize it and return it to the people at any time, so as not to damage their interests." ”
Speaking of this, Su Shi couldn't help but smile and said: "Whether it is Agarwood Hall, Tianbao Pavilion or Hong Sifang, they have cheated so much money, and they are afraid that it will be difficult to escape the eyes of the secret guards, so I am not worried at all." ”
"Next, I also want to see what other plans Pei Hyun has, and what is Your Majesty's response to?"
Then he muttered to himself, "I don't know what happened in the palace last night?" ”
