Fang Bin looked at Nie Bo with a look of helplessness deep in his bones.
He quickly changed the subject and said, "The trap set by Wu Qiongsi and others has finally trapped you, my lord. Do you really want to rush to Wenzhou?"
These words brought Di Ying, who was full of emotions, back to her senses.
He nodded and said: "Go. Others will cause trouble for Zheng Xiaoqiang's family, so I will be saved. As long as Zheng Xiaoqiang's trouble is solved, he will definitely be able to send Wu Conghui to His Majesty."
"Then it still can't be killed?"
Zhao San scratched his face and said, "Isn't this too cheap for Wu Qiongsi? He just spent some gold and some sword manuals and could do anything without breaking his muscles or bones." ”
"Let's not talk about that first,"
Xu Siyi saw that the master's face became darker and immediately asked: "Then Zheng Xiaoqiang took Wu Conghui and hid his whereabouts. Master, are you sure he did it to protect the other party? Why don't you guess that he will hand the person over to Wu Qiong?" Where are you thinking about the reward? That is a peerless sword manual, who among martial arts masters wouldn’t be jealous of it?"
"Not sure."
Di Ying shook his head.
Shaking his head lightly, he continued: "I'm just betting that he's not hiding for profit. That's why I have to save his family. Don't think about it, no matter what his purpose is, after saving his family That’s clear.”
"I feel……"
Peng Liang suddenly interjected leisurely: "My lord, you still want to kill Wu Conghui."
What does his family mean: I'm afraid he still wants Zheng Xiaoqiang to take the initiative to hand over Wu Conghui, right? Hand it over and then what? Zai Wuxian!
Di Ying glanced at Peng Liang, patted the neck of Wu Yun who was following him, and urged the guards: "Hurry up, there is still a long way to go."
He didn't want to talk to these people.
…
And in the royal study room of the imperial palace in the capital city.
After hearing about the big commotion caused by Wu Conghui, His Majesty was silent for a long time.
Wu Qiongsi was summoned.
"Qiongsi, I told you to lock Cong Hui in the house and teach him well. But you kept it from me and sent him on a journey in private.
Is it because I don’t understand his character, or do you, a father, don’t understand your son?
Or do you simply let him go out to flatter you just because you understand him?
You are still really cruel. Even the most precious son is willing to die.
You can't trap a wolf if you don't want to let go of your children, right? Who are you trying to trap?
Jianghu forces, Wang Peiyan, or Di Ying?
You really have some ideas. Chengsi suggested to me several times that I should kill Di Huaijie.
I ignored you, so you just stopped asking and did it yourself.
I'm really old and can't control you anymore, right? "
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Nephew, I really don't have that thought. I really don't."
Wu Qiongsi knelt down and cried out.
The old emperor leaned back in his chair, his face calm, but his tone was filled with deep anger.
"There are no ideas or methods, right? Qiongsi, I have been demoting talents and promoting talents in an eclectic way. For what reason, have you really thought about it?
Let me tell you this, if I am no longer here, you will be in charge. What do you think it will be like in the court?
Are they all Wu family members? All your confidants? Are they all people who coax you, support you, and obey you?
How long do you think you can sit on that dragon chair?
And you know clearly: Taiping has also won over many courtiers, Chengsi has also gained his own power, and the prince is not alone.
Will they tolerate you after you take over?
Or are you just going to fight to the death and fight to the death?
And then give foreign enemies an opportunity to take advantage of the situation to send troops and attack the city?
Among you, who will take the throne last and how long can he sit there?
I don't want the country to be in chaos, and I won't let an inch of the country be lost in my hands.
But you just can't tolerate anyone who has to take your side.
Do you think: I can secure this throne by relying on you?
So how naive are you? How stupid?
Without those pillars who sincerely serve the country and the people, without those who are dedicated to serving the public and upholding the law, I rely on you who are nepotistic and fight among each other all day long. How long can I sit here? !
How long can the country be stable? If the country cannot be stabilized, and there is no need for foreign enemies to push me, the people can push me down and peel off my three layers of old skin!
Although many things you do and many words you say are very much in line with my wishes. But if you don't have the foresight again, you don't have to think about succession. "
When Wu Qiongsi heard this, he was so shocked that he kowtowed repeatedly and begged His Majesty to calm down.
But he was wronged, he really felt wronged.
"Your Majesty, my almighty aunt, my nephew really doesn't want to use this to deal with Di Ying. Your Majesty, please think about it, if Cong Hui's murder fell into the hands of Di Ying, Di Ying would definitely kill him immediately. ah.
Moreover, Di Ying always acted with reason and evidence. Even if he took Cong Hui's head and threw it in front of his nephew, the nephew would still be helpless with him.
Just like Cong Jin...
The nephew's eldest son, Cong Jin, was killed by Di Ying like that, and the nephew could only watch helplessly.
Aunt, the most supreme aunt, my nephew uses bushes of ashes for bedding, which is also the same pain of gouging out the heart.
My nephew only wanted to eliminate the forces of the Jianghu, and he had no intention of provoking Di Ying at all. Aunt, you need to be aware of this. "
"You didn't want to provoke Di Ying?"
The old emperor smiled and said: "It seems that I have wrongly blamed you. Not only do you have no vision, you also have no brains.
Who do you think Di Ying is? Do you think he, just a magistrate of Pengze County, would remain indifferent after hearing about such a big thing?
Then he is not Di Huaijie. Now I'm afraid he is already on his way to Wenzhou. During that bloody journey, he...
That's all, just step back. But I am warning you: If Di Huaijie really interferes in this matter, Wang Peiyan, you should stay still.
I will only promote the people Di Ying wants to protect. Do you understand? "
Wu Qiongsi only agreed.
But, he didn't get up.
He kowtowed once more and plucked up the courage to ask further questions.
"Auntie, Di Ying Ruocun and the Wu family will only become fewer and fewer. Are you really so reluctant to kill him? He is not the only one who can be called the pillar of the country and the foundation of the dynasty. Yes."
The old emperor smiled.
The smile was so incomprehensible and profound that Wu Qiongsi's whole body trembled with chills and his bones trembled.
"A person like you is like a crucian carp crossing a river; someone like him is like a lost pearl in the ocean. Maybe I appreciate him because he is the only one who dares to attack the Wu family, right?
There must be a rein that can rein in the unrestrained heart of the Wu family.
There must be someone who can truly understand my public and selfish intentions.
How many years have passed before I was lucky enough to meet this person? You cannot tolerate him. Everything I said to you was ultimately in vain.
Retreat, don't let Wu Conghui appear in front of me, don't force me to personally order his death. You should know clearly: I care about public opinion. "
Wu Qiongsi exited the hall in cold sweat.
After exiting, I thought carefully about His Majesty's words as I walked. After thinking about it, I got confused.
It was really impossible for him to spare Di Ying's life no matter what.
From this, I thought: Di Ying is really amazing. The hatred of himself, Taiping, Weishi, Chengsi, and several forces were all directed towards him.
Only that one person magically became the target that several forces jointly wanted to deal with.
Your Majesty wants to keep him just to balance the forces between these parties?
Then Wu Qiongsi really wanted to break it.
After all... this threat is too great.
