Imperial Palace, Shou'an Hall.
Emperor Shang looked at King Wu'an's leaving figure and said coldly, "Do you think he told the truth?"
"can not tell."
In the palace, black energy surged, and a black-robed figure shrouded in demonic aura walked out and replied, "Based on the current intelligence, it is very likely that King Wu'an was framed. This is such a coincidence."
"It's not a coincidence."
Emperor Shang shook his head slightly and responded, "If King Wu'an really has a rebellious intention, then the attack on Prince Wu'an's palace is just a trigger and has nothing to do with coincidence."
"What your Majesty said makes sense."
The black-robed figure nodded and responded, "The key lies in whether these two things are true or false."
"good."
Emperor Shang said coldly, "I have sent people to invite the masters of the Black Witch Clan. In addition, I have sent people to Baidi City to get the handwriting of the Tantai Heavenly Lady. I believe there will be results soon."
"Your Majesty, what if the final result is that the witchcraft and collaboration with the enemy are true?"
The black-robed figure asked seriously, "What are you going to do with King Wu'an?"
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "We will decide how to deal with him after verifying these two things."
"Your Majesty, this may be a plan to alienate the Li family."
The figure in black robe reminded, "The attack on Prince Wu'an's Mansion was most likely caused by the Li family."
In fact, nine times out of ten, this description is lacking. It can be said that the attack on Prince Wu'an's palace must have been carried out by someone sent by the Li family.
"I understand."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "Actually, this matter is not that complicated. There is no necessary connection between the attack on Prince Wu'an's palace and the discovery of these items by the Imperial Army. The Li family is suspected, as is Prince Wu'an. Let's wait until the results come out to discuss everything. In Before that, it’s useless to think too much.”
"That's true."
The black-robed figure nodded in response, changed the subject, and said, "Your Majesty, our cooperation with Yanyu Tower is about to begin. Compared to the Li family, I think Yanyu Tower is more unfathomable and should not be underestimated."
"That's why we have to cooperate with them."
Emperor Shang said with a cold expression, "The shadow of Yanyu Tower is really weird. If you want to study it clearly, you must get more information."
"Your Majesty, Yanyulou may have an ulterior motive for cooperating with us," the black-robed figure reminded.
“It’s normal for people in this world to pursue profit and have a purpose.”
Emperor Shang replied, "Compared with those who have impure intentions, it is easier to cooperate with such an organization that collects money and lives. The interests are in front of you, so you don't waste your words."
"It doesn't matter if we cooperate with Yanyulou. We are just worried that the more people involved, the easier it will be for our affairs to be exposed."
The figure in black robe said seriously, "The one from the ancestral hall doesn't know what we are doing yet. If he finds out, the consequences will be disastrous."
"No problem."
Emperor Shang shook his head and responded, "Ancestor's intelligence sources are limited, so he won't know it so quickly. Moreover, even if he knew it, he might not do anything to me because of his character. Ancestor is still old after all. .”
"That's good."
The black-robed figure heard Shang Huang's answer and said no more. Black energy surged around him, and the figure gradually disappeared.
In the empty hall, Emperor Shang held a chess piece and turned it around, thoughts flashing through his eyes.
Mu Wuan.
After a moment of contemplation, Emperor Shang casually threw the chess pieces on the chessboard, discarding them like worn-out shoes.
There is no family affection in the royal family. Before the imperial power, siblings, father and son are all worth mentioning.
Throughout the ages, throughout the dynasties and in the royal family, there have been countless unjust, false, and wrongful cases, each of which resulted in rivers of blood and countless deaths and injuries.
What's even more frightening is that behind this, the emperor's role is not to pursue the truth, but to add fuel to the flames.
The emperor never cared about the truth.
At the same time, Zanglu Garden.
Mu Bai raised his glass and toasted with the guests in the hall. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Mu Bai knew nothing about winning people's hearts, but Li Ziye was very clever.
With the cooperation of the two of them, the situation turned out to be so smooth.
In fact, Li Ziye still admired Mu Bai.
Although there is a clear sense of stupidity, I will never mess with things I don’t understand. I will do whatever I am told without asking too many questions or dilly-dallying.
In this way, Li was saved a lot of time.
The hardest thing in the world is not to teach a fool, but to convince an idiot who thinks he understands.
"get off work!"
At the middle of the day, Li Ziye saw that the time was almost up, put down the wine glass in his hand, and prepared to leave.
In the main seat, Mu Bai, who had been a puppet on strings all morning, also wanted to leave long ago, so he found a random reason and left first.
During the banquet, when the dignitaries saw the fourth prince leaving, they also left the banquet.
"They run really fast."
Li Ziye looked at the people leaving the table, shook his head helplessly, and then stood up and left unhurriedly.
Is it important for Mu Bai to have a good relationship with these people?
Not that important.
However, if you don’t do this or that, how can you possibly ascend to the throne of God’s King?
The principle that drops of water penetrate a stone is not chicken soup, but great wisdom.
Not long after, outside Zanglu Garden, Li Ziye got on the carriage and returned to Li Garden along the same route.
Half an hour later, Li Ziye walked up to the inner courtyard of Li Garden and went straight back to his room.
In the room, the quarreling Tianzhique and Holy Lord Yunying had long since disappeared. In the end, it is not known how the two resolved the conflict. However, judging from the situation in the room, the two did not fight.
After all, perversion has its limits.
"Young Master."
In the room, Qingping looked at the visitor, bowed respectfully, and called out.
"Tonight?" Li Ziye asked.
"That's right."
Qingping nodded and responded, "I am worried that there is something wrong, so I came here to ask for advice from the young master."
"Let me think."
Li Ziye sat down at the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and said calmly.
What happens tonight is indeed very important and should not be taken carelessly.
The cooperation between Yanyu Tower and the royal family is a matter of high priority and confidentiality for both Yanyu Tower and the royal family. It needs to be taken seriously and every step should be considered.
If you are seeking skin from a tiger, you will be doomed if you are not careful.
How much information can be obtained from the cooperation between the two parties is secondary. The key point is to completely separate the Li family from this matter. No matter what, the Li family must not be involved in any way.
On the side, Qingping stood there quietly, saying nothing, without any impatience in her expression.
He knew the importance of cooperation between Yanyu Tower and the royal family, otherwise, he would not deliberately come back.
Determining the direction of the Li family's future must be confirmed by the young master before it can be implemented.
Usually, they can handle some things by themselves, and the young master also encourages them to have their own opinions and not to come back and ask about everything.
But this is not possible.
It's not that they don't want to take the blame, it's that they really can't afford it.
That's what the helmsman does.
