"What is it that worries you so much?"
Su Shi said slowly: "The Emperor."
"Father?"
Zhou Jin seemed not only surprised, but also confused: "Since my father is willing to use his power to help you, it means that he wants to help you, why should you worry about him?"
Su Shi shook his head, hesitated for a long time, and finally said in a voice that only Zhou Jin could hear clearly: "I'm worried about your majesty's health."
Zhou Jin smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about my father's health..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly stood up. She felt dizzy because she stood up so violently.
However, she no longer cared about this at this time. She just looked at Su Shi in shock and felt as if she was suffocating.
Because she finally understood what Su Shi meant.
She kept shaking her head and said in horror: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Su Shi sighed: "Ten years ago, if you had heard that someone was planning to murder the prince, you would have thought it impossible."
Zhou Jin couldn't accept Su Shi's inference no matter what, and argued: "If Pei Xuan wanted to murder his father, he didn't do it when he had such a good opportunity more than 20 years ago, why did he wait until now?"
"Because for Pei Xuan, killing is not the goal, but letting Daqian decline is his goal."
Zhou Jin pretended to be calm and said: "There is no way he can succeed. My father lives in a deep palace and the people around him are loyal to him. There is no way they could betray him."
Su Shi said slowly: "Zhong Lichuan is also extremely loyal to the prince."
Thinking of the death of the prince's brother, Zhou Jin's confidence was gradually shattered. She looked at Su Shi in panic, with a cry in her voice.
"You must find a way to save your father!"
Su Shi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "His Majesty lives in a deep palace, and I rarely see him even once, so your father's life may only depend on you to save him."
"Then what should I do?"
"I don't know." Su Shi slowly shook his head and said, "I really don't know. I only know that this result is very likely to occur, because as soon as this result occurs, no one can stop Daqian from falling into In the midst of chaos.”
"But as for what method Pei Xuan will use, I really have no idea now."
Speaking of this, Su Shi pondered: "But there is a direction you can try to check, and maybe you will find something."
Zhou Jin asked eagerly: "What direction?"
"I suspect that the palace maids and eunuchs who have Hui Niang under house arrest include people from Pei Xun. But even if it is found that there are people from Pei Xun inside, don't put too much hope in it, because they may not be the ones who do it."
When Su Zhou slowly walked towards the main hall, he saw Zhou Jin coming out in a hurry. He immediately stood aside, preparing to see off the princess.
However, Zhou Jin didn't seem to see him at all. He just stared straight ahead, his eyes full of fear and panic, completely lacking his usual calmness.
Su Zhou was so surprised that he forgot to give him a gift. After Zhou Jin walked down the steps, there was already a maid waiting there. Zhou Jin whispered to go back to the palace, and then hurriedly left the general's mansion.
Su Zhou stared blankly at Zhou Jin's figure disappearing into the night, and couldn't help but look back at Su Shi.
At this time, Su Shi sat silently at the table, holding his chin with his hands clasped in fists, looking deeply at the dark sky outside the window.
"What were you discussing with Her Royal Highness the Princess just now?"
Su Shi was as motionless as a statue, and just said lightly: "You should know that the reason why I want to separate you and Uncle Qin is because I don't want you to know, so why do you need to ask me again."
"Why can't you let us know? Why didn't Her Royal Highness stay at home when she left?"
Su Shi sighed: "Why do you have so many questions today?"
Then he stood up, forced a smile on his face, and said: "You have already made up your mind to go back to the border. Please prepare your luggage during this period, and don't worry about the capital."
Su Zhou said quietly: "I may not leave, or I may wait until the matter in the capital comes to an end before I leave."
Su Shi thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Do you still remember what the prince once told you?"
Su Zhou immediately said: "Did the prince tell me to stay at the border?"
Su Shi said: "Although I don't know why the prince ordered you like this, I think there must be his reason."
At this time, Su Shi stretched, straightened up, and said slowly: "It's getting late. Everyone is a little tired today, so let's go to bed early."
After saying that, Su Shi slowly walked out of the main hall and slowly stepped into the darkness.
It was dark outside the palace, but the lights inside the palace were bright, illuminating Linying Hall like daylight.
Zhou Yu sat on a high chair, looked at Tian Wenhao sharply, and said word by word: "What do you think of this?"
Under Zhou Yu's gaze like a sharp arrow, Tian Wenhao couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Although the anger in Zhou Yu's heart was caused by Su Shi, if Tian Wenhao didn't handle it properly, this anger would burn on him at any time.
Tian Wenhao was walking on thin ice and asked cautiously: "Is His Highness talking about the Emperor summoning Su Shi?"
Zhou Yu didn't speak, but just said the word "hmm" from his nasal cavity.
Tian Wenhao immediately replied: "Your Majesty's move is nothing more than a knock on the mountain and a shock to the tiger."
Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and then he said contemptuously: "Knocking on the mountain to shake the tiger? Just Su Shi?"
Tian Wenhao thought about it again and again, and finally couldn't help but remind him: "Your Highness, don't underestimate Su Shi. This person does have some abilities in business. And..."
"And what?"
Tian Wenhao said cryptically: "Miss Zhou seems to be very close to Su Shi, and she knows Dongyuan Zhiku very well."
Zhou Yu waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "You don't have to worry about her affairs."
Tian Wenhao immediately replied respectfully: "Yes."
Zhou Yu asked again: "If Su Shi wants to deal with Dongyuan Zhiku, how will he do it?"
"Will he open a quality warehouse and compete with us?"
Zhou Yu said calmly: "If he also opens a quality warehouse, will the Dongyuan Quality Warehouse be closed within three months?"
Tian Wenhao shook his head, not to mention three months, not even three years.
"Does Su Shi have any other ideas?"
Tian Wenhao suddenly shed a drop of cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Go back to Your Highness, my subordinates don't know."
Zhou Yu seemed to be very dissatisfied with this answer, and his expression slowly became stern.
Tian Wenhao could completely feel Zhou Yu's dissatisfaction, and the cold sweat on his forehead was gathering more and more. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said: "But no matter what method Su Shi uses, I can guarantee that Su Shi can't touch a hair of Dongyuan Zhiku. "
Only then did Zhou Yu smile with satisfaction and said, "Then Dongyuan Zhiku will trouble you, sir."
Tian Wenhao stood up in a hurry and replied: "This is my subordinate's duty, how dare I say it's troublesome."
Zhou Yu nodded and said, "It's late today. Mr. Tian should have a good rest when he goes back."
Then he ordered the eunuch beside him: "Send Mr. Tian out of the palace."
The eunuch who was serving beside him immediately responded: "Yes", and then prepared to send Tian Wenhao out of the palace.
Before leaving, Zhou Yu suddenly said slowly: "Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles."
