Looking at the somewhat gloomy King Shu in front of him, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "One more thing, although the mother and son are currently very picky, the ambitions of the mother and son may not be the same." Only attack Zhengzhou, not Ruzhou. "
"Let's help her make things big in Zhengzhou and put all their energy in Zhengzhou. You can better start here in Ruzhou. Your lord, Ruzhou is different from Zhengzhou. The King of England has only a short time to leave the palace, and he is in the middle of the court. There is no foundation at all. In order to quickly stabilize the situation, he can kill all the so-called rebellious officials in Zhengzhou."
"But you can't do it here, because the magistrates and general magistrates of Ruzhou are all our people. The current situation in Ruzhou is not much different from that in Zhengzhou, except that the situation is not as messy. The public grievances are no less than those in Zhengzhou. If you don't handle it well, you will also encounter the same troubles that the King of England encountered."
"Didn't the news from the internal sources in the DPRK say that the emperor has appointed the British Prime Minister Zhengzhou to deal with the aftermath? According to my estimation, the same imperial edict should have reached you in the next half day. I believe that the emperor's move is a sign of appreciation for you and your relationship. The King of England has the ability to handle government affairs. So for you, Ruzhou now needs stability more, while Zhengzhou needs more chaos, the better."
"Your Majesty, if we can't contain the energy of the mother and son in Zhengzhou and let them still have the energy to attack Ruzhou, then you will be the one sitting on the wax. As you said, except for some private matters, the mother and son Apart from small actions, there are no means to get on the stage. But although these small actions may not be able to change the overall situation, they are still troublesome to deal with. "
"Right now, all the kings, King Jing and King Rui are dead. And as soon as that appeal came out, the prince was basically deposed and settled down. Although we helped write that appeal, at least 70% of the things in it are true. . Do you think the emperor can allow such a prince with such a bad reputation to continue to sit down? Killing brothers, raising killers, and doting on male favorites have all made him lose his position. "
"I promise that when you and the King of England return to the court, the edict to depose the crown prince will be issued. Your Majesty, at this juncture, the emperor chose you and the King of England to lead the army separately while leaving the heroes and generals in the court unused. I don’t know the meaning of betrayal, have you thought about it in depth?”
"From what I see below, there is no doubt that there is an idea of selecting the new crown prince from you and the King of England. Except for you and the King of England, at least in the eyes of the Emperor, the other princes are, at least for now. It is difficult for him to take on a big responsibility. You can see this, and I guess the King of England must have also seen the shrewdness of him."
"Although Concubine De and her son may not be able to see it, I think that the uncle of the King of Song, the chief minister of Sinong Temple, must have seen it. And the uncle who wants to be the queen is crazy and wants to send the King of Song to the position of prince. , I also miss Concubine De who is crazy. Although I am being picky now, I may not be angry with you."
"If the King of England falls at this time, you will be the best choice for the heir apparent. Do you think that Concubine De is the one who worked hard to make wedding clothes for others? What's more, no matter how stupid she is, she still understands that you Your strength is definitely not comparable to that of the King of England. Compared to the King of England, you are more difficult to deal with. So I don’t think she will attack Zhengzhou alone.”
"That mother and son are a little stupid, but as long as they are dealing with the King of England, it will do more good than harm to you. Let's let them fight with each other first. On the one hand, we will collect evidence, and on the other hand, we will add more secrets. As long as the King of England falls, the evidence in your hand will be presented to the Emperor. At that time, you will be the one who has the last laugh."
After this person analyzed it, the King of Shu was slightly stunned. Although he didn't want to admit it, King Shu thought that this person's analysis was reasonable. I understand that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, but the mother and son in the palace, who are arrogant but stupid as pigs, may not be able to understand this truth.
Although he said he was not afraid of her, if she caused some trouble for him at this time, he would be hard-pressed to prevent her. In this kind of matter, it is better to be a villain first and then a gentleman. Thinking of this, the King of Shu said directly without hesitation: "Okay, let's do as you say. But we ourselves must also prepare ourselves."
The King of Shu's answer made the middle-aged man nod slightly, and then said: "However, there are still things that should be done here in Ruzhou. Don't forget, the emperor has a special weapon in his hand specially used to monitor the kings and the people. The minister's North and South Town Fusi. Last time we were lucky and with Concubine Shen's help, we found out the North and South Town Fusi. Those who were placed in Zhengzhou and Ruzhou may not have the same luck now."
"I just said that the emperor will not believe everything in the British King's secret book, nor will he believe it at all. Your Majesty, you will definitely make up your mind to investigate. In Ruzhou, although King Rui's family has died, , there is no need to spend as much effort as in Zhengzhou. But there are some things that should be done more thoroughly."
"First of all, we need to transfer all the palace personnel involved in King Rui's affairs and relocate them to a secret place. At least until you ascend to the throne, they must not be allowed to come out to prevent being suppressed by the North and South. People discovered it. Secondly, you can deal with all the minions in Prince Rui’s Mansion according to the example of the King of England in dealing with the officials in Prince Jing’s Mansion.”
"To prevent those minions from leaking something detrimental to you. The King of England disposed of almost all the officials in Prince Jing's Mansion in Zhengzhou, saving us a lot of work. Here in Ruzhou, we don't have that convenient condition. I'm afraid we are the only ones. We took matters into our own hands. But now that the King of England has learned from the past, we don’t have to restrain our hands."
"Finally, after getting rid of Princess Jing, you have to lie dormant for a while. At least for a long period of time, our people must not make any rash actions to prevent the emperor from discovering anything. Because as long as there is activity, There will be clues left. As long as there are clues, sooner or later someone will find out."
After the middle-aged man said this, the King of Shu said unambiguously this time: "Just do what you want, sir. Early tomorrow morning, you will organize people to send the three servants from Prince Rui's Mansion to accompany me." Brother. Remember to shut everyone’s mouths before taking action. I don’t want anything bad to come out of their mouths.”
"As for those people whom I have placed in Prince Rui's Mansion, since their errands have been completed, they will be dealt with as well. Later, sir, prepare a pot of poisonous wine and a table of food and wine, and select some from among the maids from Prince Rui's Mansion. A more beautiful person was waiting on them, saying that the king rewarded them, so that they could relax. Tell them that after they return to Chengdu, the king will reward each of them with three thousand guans."
"My king's second sister-in-law, our people should not come forward to avoid arousing my father's suspicion. In the past few days, the fourth prince of Dali Kingdom promised to my king, the number one master of Dali Kingdom, the Seven Swords of Ailaoshan. And Tubo Master Xiang Quelun, the national monk, promised me that ten masters from the Snowy Mountains of Tubo Kingdom will arrive soon. You send someone to tell them not to go to Jingzhao Mansion and go directly to Zhengzhou."
Having said this, the King of Shu smiled slightly and said: "I am able to get the support of the four princes of Dali and the monk and prime minister of Tubo, thanks to what I heard from my husband. When choosing a vassal territory, I did not choose something eye-catching. Instead of the Central Plains, we chose Chengdu on the western frontier. Although it is a bit remote, we can use the wealth of the Land of Abundance to develop our strength unobtrusively."
"At the same time, we can engage in diplomacy with Tubo and Dali, and internally make connections with the officials who have stayed in Xijing. The king is able to come to this day, and the painstaking planning of the master is really indispensable. If the king is able to get what he wants, the master should be the first to do so. When the king of Japan ascends the throne, When you receive the Dabao, it is the time to share the glory and wealth with your husband."
"Although these things cannot be made public at the moment, I still have to reward you for your merits. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a case of merit without reward? I heard that you admire this king, who was once known as the most beautiful woman in Beijing. My third sister-in-law has been with me for a long time. I will fulfill my wish for you today and give her to him, as well as the most beautiful and favored concubine among my third brother’s many concubines.”
"However, tonight my third sister-in-law is at your disposal tonight. But tomorrow morning, I don't want to see this third sister-in-law and the concubine still alive. By then, I hope that your husband will not show mercy to her. Woman? , As long as you have the power, aren’t all the beauties in the world your bag? Why should you care too much about a certain person? "
Hearing what the King of Shu said, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead, and he quickly knelt down in the tunnel and said: "Master, I really don't dare to accept such a compliment. I was able to get rid of the three biggest opponents in one fell swoop, all thanks to the prince." The plan is well planned and the blessings are profound, and the subordinates have no merit in the least. It is natural that the prince will ascend to the great treasure in the future, which is his destiny."
Regarding this man's humble words, the King of Shu just smiled faintly, as if he was speaking to this man, but also as if he was talking to himself: "The things in the world are yours, and you can hide them if you don't hide them." It was dropped. If it wasn't yours, you wouldn't be able to hold it even if you grabbed it, right? Nostalgia for some things is a good thing, but being too nostalgic is not a good thing."
After the King of Shu said these words, the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground was covered in cold sweat in a very short time. When the King of Shu waved his hand to indicate that he could leave and return to his bedroom, his whole body felt as if he had been fished out of water. I couldn't help but beat a drum in my heart: "Has my identity been discovered by the King of Shu?"
Rao was called the Poison Master by everyone in the Shu Palace. He was very good at conspiracy and conspiracy, and was especially good at using chain schemes. Lu Wentao, who thought that Mount Tai collapsed in front but remained unchanged, and elk thrived in the left but remained unchanged, but Lu Wentao, who was familiar with the methods of the King of Shu, was also disturbed by these few words of the King of Shu.
When the King of Shu was fourteen years old, he was sent by the people behind him as an aide to the King of Shu to advise him. It has been almost twenty years since this year. For this prince, who had shown deep scheming and vicious methods at a young age, he knew those methods too well.
He knew that once his master knew his true identity and the reason why he was sent to him, it would be impossible for him to ask for death. Although this prince always has a faint smile on his face, his vicious behavior is unimaginable by ordinary people.
After forcing himself to calm down, and following the King of Shu's instructions, Lu Wentao, who wanted to summon his confidants to discuss certain matters after dealing with the insiders planted by the King of Shu in Prince Rui's Mansion, remembered the cold tone of the King of Shu's words, and finally chose gave up. He knew that at this time, he must not reveal anything that could make the King of Shu suspicious.
And judging from what the King of Shu said to him today, it seems that the King of Shu must have spies around him. He didn't trust himself as much as he seemed. Now that he has said those words today, who can guarantee that he has no other back-ups? If he really discovers something, all his hard work will be in vain.
