With such a big thing happening in Jinyang City, Tao Qing naturally needed to give Liu Qi some relief.
On the surface, he seemed to have become an abandoned piece, but Tao Qing knew in his heart that as long as he could show his value, the two big hands on the chessboard would eventually put him back in the center of the chessboard!
This incident is a political speculation, and this is almost his last chance!
In order to succeed this time, he really did everything he could!
Completely grasping the real power of Daiguo was his chance to prove himself and also his way to flatter Liu Qi...
However, Tao Qing thought about it and missed one thing.
That’s this guy Liu Deng, who has always been someone who doesn’t play by the rules...
"Your Highness, although Tao Qing did not say it clearly, I secretly guess that the person who burned Changpingcang was probably sent by him!"
There were only Liu Qi and Chao Cuo in the huge study room. Although the relationship between the two was not as good as before, at this time, the only thing Liu Qi could think of was Chao Cuo.
"Sir, you mean that this is a play he wrote, directed and acted in?"
Liu Qi's brows furrowed tightly, this damn Tao Qing, he would really make things worse for himself.
When the matter reached this level, Liu Qi really felt a headache.
There was already a rift between him and Liu Deng. Now that he and Prince Liang have become estranged from each other, is it possible that he will have a complete breakup with Liu Deng?
Look at the newly renovated East Palace, and look at the things that the women around him use and wear on their heads. Isn't the source of all of this Liu Deng?
It is really a great skill that the people do not add taxes but the country uses enough.
At least Liu Qi asked himself that he did not have such ability.
The Salt Lake of Dai had been there for a year or two, and the bamboo slips on the court had been in use for a day or two. However, before Liu Deng appeared, no one had ever thought of changing it.
But what happens after Liu Deng appears?
In less than two years, Daiguo's Salt Lake became the place where he made his fortune.
Paper, which was originally so expensive that even the royal family could not afford it, has now found its way into the homes of ordinary people.
Moreover, as paper-making workshops sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, schools sprung up from the ground, which made everyone stunned.
Although the conditions of these schools are very simple, the number of children who come to study is still very limited.
However, the seeds of reading have been sown after all, and the sound of reading can already be heard in slightly larger cities and even more prosperous villages and towns.
The "Cangjie Pian" compiled by Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, and the "Ai Li Pian" compiled by Zhao Gao suddenly became the most printed books in various places.
Although it is just simple literacy, it is enough to make people happy.
Opening up people's wisdom on such a large scale is an unprecedented event in history!
Not to mention, the Modao Army that made the Huns cry for their fathers, the ingenious Shenwu Army, the massive war horses captured from the Huns, and the decisive role played by Dai in the Six Kingdoms Rebellion.
All of this has turned Liu Deng into an indispensable figure. Even Liu Qi, as the prince of the empire and the future emperor, now has to weigh Liu Deng's weight and completely fall out with Liu Deng. And then, the terrible consequences!
"If it's as I guessed, I'm afraid Tao Qing will be doomed this time..."
Chao Cuo's words immediately stunned Liu Qi. How could this be possible?
After all, Tao Qing was a subordinate sent by the imperial court. Even if he deserved death, could Liu Deng still kill him directly?
But if you think about it carefully, with Liu Deng's character, how is this impossible?
Fire broke out in Changpingcang, and a fire burned 300,000 shi of grain.
It's already the beginning of winter, and the loss of these three hundred thousand shi of food will inevitably cause large-scale riots in Dai Kingdom.
If Liu Deng gets hold of this matter, it may be difficult for Tao Qing to escape from Liu Deng's hands alive.
"Somebody come!"
When he thought of this, Liu Qi no longer dared to think about it any more.
"Your Highness, what do you want to do?"
Chao Cuo quickly stopped him.
This is not the time to act rashly. If you don't respond well, the situation will be irreversible.
If Liu Deng really killed Tao Qing in a rage, Liu Qike would really have no way to explain to the court.
"Of course I am writing to Liu Deng and asking him to put down this evil fire for me no matter what!"
Liu Qi said without thinking.
"Your Highness, do you think His Highness the King can listen to you when he is so angry?"
Chao Cuo also had a bitter look on his face now. Tao Qing was really careless. Indeed, he saw clearly that the first thing the prince would do next was to weaken the influence of the princes and kings.
However, the Six Kings Rebellion has served as a warning. If things are done too hastily, it will lead to catastrophic disaster.
Even if we really want to take action at this time, we should start with those people who have been unable to do anything during this chaos.
For example, the King of Huainan, the King of Changsha, or even the King of Yan!
Among the remaining kings in the world, the only ones who cannot be touched are Liu Deng and Liu Wu.
Unless Liu Deng and others speak out themselves, the court can only adopt a soft policy towards them.
After all, they had proven their loyalty during this chaos.
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Liu Qizhen was a little impatient. He couldn't stand the bad habits of these scholars.
This has already reached the critical moment, and Chao Cuo is still here to show off his book bag.
"His Highness should issue an order at this moment and send someone to arrest Tao Qing immediately! And the person sent should be from Tingwei Mansion. No matter what excuses His Highness gives, he must be brought back! He does deserve to die, but alone We cannot die in the hands of His Highness the King!"
After listening to Chao Cuo's words, Liu Qilue understood Chao Cuo's painstaking efforts after hesitating.
Yes, Tao Qing did deserve to die, but there was no way he could die in Liu Deng's hands.
"I'm going to write a letter right now. I'll trouble you to go to Zhidu in person and ask him to write an official document and send someone there immediately! No, ask him to go there in person! Just say that if this matter comes to pass, I owe him a favor. !”
"promise!"
Now that the situation is urgent, Liu Qi can't care about anything else. At this time, he just hopes that Zhidu can stop Liu Deng...
Liu Qi also knew in his heart that Chao Cuo had something he didn't say. Once Liu Deng killed Tao Qing, no matter what the court did next, it would definitely give the world a clear excuse...
The cunning rabbit is dead, the running dogs are cooked, the high bird is gone, and the good bow is hidden.
As long as Tao Qing dies in Liu Deng's hands, these twelve words will almost be written on the emperor's forehead...
