The contents of the two secret letters can be said to be similar. They both advocated cooperation between the two sides to facilitate each other's seizure of power in their respective DPRKs.
But when they saw the last part, they were both surprised because the two letters were not sent by the same person. In other words, one force chose Fu Zuoliang, while the other force chose Han Zeng.
This is interesting. The two hostile forces in the Jingyuan Dynasty connected with the two mutually hostile forces in the Southern Zhao Dynasty. The dignitaries of the two countries who were supposed to work together and work together to deal with the outside world have inexplicably developed horizontal connections, colluding with each other just to eliminate the hostile forces in their own countries and China.
The occurrence of this kind of thing has to be said to be sad for both countries.
What makes Shao Xi even more angry is that the general of Nan Zhao still has some moral integrity and refuses to collude with outsiders, but these two shameless people in the Jingyuan Dynasty where he works actually initiate it. The person who contacted him made Shao Xi feel embarrassed for Jingyuan Dynasty.
People say that family scandals should not be publicized. Now the two hostile forces in the Jingyuan Dynasty are actively colluding with Nan Zhao just for internal fighting. This is simply making Nan Zhao laugh at themselves.
In order to fight for power and gain, he would not hesitate to collude with foreign countries to harm the interests of his own country for his own selfish interests. In Shao Xi's opinion, this was extremely shameless.
If such a person obtains power, how can he govern the country in an orderly, well-organized and harmonious manner? How can we bring peace, prosperity and prosperity to the people of the world? How can such a selfish person deserve such power?
During this trip to Southern Zhao, Shao Xi finally figured out some things and finally connected some previous events with certain people. Although it is not yet certain, he finally has some clues.
All that's left to do is to figure out which things were done by which people, or at least figure out who you should take revenge on first.
No wonder Old Wu refused to tell him who his enemy was when he was beaten to death. Now it seems that all he has to face are powerful people. If he doesn't have extraordinary abilities, he really can't shake them at all. It’s not an exaggeration.
Shao Xi finally understood why Lao Wu had been forcing himself to practice martial arts and increase his knowledge for so many years. If he didn't have real skills, he really wouldn't be able to fight against these people, and he might end up being shattered into pieces and never recover.
sorrow! The existence of these people is the tragedy of the Jingyuan Empire, and those who died in vain during their power struggle are even more sad. There are always some people in this world who will do whatever it takes to gain power, even if it means taking the lives of innocent people.
What is the difference between these people and the demons coming out of hell?
It took Shao Xi a while to calm down the resentment in his heart. When he calmed down, what Shao Xi thought of was how to make these people suffer the consequences? With his current ability, it is absolutely impossible to confront the opponent head-on, and the only way is to use the irreconcilable contradiction between them to borrow a knife to kill people, but how to borrow this knife?
The two read the secret letter almost at the same time, and each found what they needed from the secret letter. Shao Xi and Han Zeng looked at each other in a tacit understanding and then exchanged letters. They both got what they wanted.
Fu Zuoliang's letter already stated that someone in Jingyuan Kingdom wanted to cooperate with him to create turmoil in Jingyuan's southern border in a certain period in the future to cooperate with this person's seizure of power in Jingyuan Dynasty. At the same time, he also promised Fu Zuoliang a generous sum of money. He could even send troops to help him seize the throne of Southern Zhao in the future.
Although I don’t know how Fu Zuoliang responded to this letter, the current content of this letter is enough reason to suspect that Fu Zuoliang is colluding with others and intends to launch a mutiny in the Southern Zhao Dynasty in order to seize the Zhao family of Southern Zhao and seek the throne of the emperor. .
This alone is enough to make Zhao Hongjin extremely suspicious of Fu Zuoliang, thus depriving him of the power of the assistant minister. Even if he considers his status as a veteran of the previous dynasty, he will at least be expelled from the court. Leave it to another place.
This was exactly the result Han Zeng wanted most, so when he read this letter, he was extremely excited. Because Fu Zuoliang was squeezed out, he could monopolize power in the court. As long as he controlled the young emperor Zhao Hongjin, he would be in charge of the world of Southern Zhao and become the de facto ruler.
When the court of Southern Zhao is under his control, he can exchange interests with the superior of the Jingyuan Dynasty who he cooperated with before. When the time is right, he can replace Zhao Hongjin and let the Southern Zhao Kingdom change. The surname was changed to "South Korea".
This was Han Zeng's wishful thinking.
At the same time, Shao Xi also got very useful and important information for himself from Han Zeng's letter.
Ever since the assassination of the Baiye Kingdom envoy, Shao Xi has always suspected that there were two rebel forces in the Jingyuan Dynasty. The two forces had the same purpose, conspiring to seize Jingyuan's imperial power. Therefore, they secretly competed with each other and sabotaged each other. Activity.
Although Shao Xi knows the existence of these two forces, he has never been able to find out who these two forces belong to? For whom?
Now the two secret letters seen in Nan Zhao Kingdom have revealed the answer to the mystery for Shao Xi, and he really knows who these two forces are? At the same time, he also understood the huge difficulties and dangers he would face in the future.
One of these two forces is the force of the man in black robe, and one of the two names that Shao Xi currently has in his hands must be the man in black robe, the culprit of the Fengjiazhuang murder case, and the one Shao Xi wants to take revenge on. The goal.
Shao Xi turned his head and glanced at Old Wu, only to see Old Wu sitting there expressionlessly, without making any eye contact with him.
Through Lao Wu's reaction to the two secret letters, Shao Xi had already roughly judged which of the two names was the man in black robe. But until Old Wu tells him personally, Shao Xi will remain skeptical. It will not be until one day when Old Wu tells him the clear answer that he will launch a full-scale revenge operation.
At the same time, another name had to attract Shao Xi's attention.
Since they are both rebel forces, and both want to kill each other, then you can completely rely on the other party's forces for your revenge, and at the same time master more evidence, and eradicate this force after the revenge is completed.
If you want to kill someone with a borrowed knife without being hurt by the knife, the best way is to turn yourself into a scabbard. Although you can't control how the knife hurts you, you can find a way to become the sheath of the knife and try to prevent it from hurting you.
And when to cut off the hand holding the knife? It depends on how the situation develops and when that knife poses a threat to you. Before that, all he had to do was make good use of this knife.
"Lord Xiangguo, what do you think of these two forces in the Jingyuan Dynasty? Which one of them do you think has a better chance of becoming the winner?"
Han Zeng was stunned by Shao Xi's question. Didn't he immediately think of returning to Jingyuan Kingdom and informing Xiao Changyi, the emperor of Jingyuan Empire, about the matter after getting these two names?
"What do you mean by this, little friend? As a minister of Jing Yuan Kingdom, after learning that someone in the court is colluding with foreign countries, shouldn't you report it to Minggui and start eradicating these hidden dangers in the court? Why are you concerned about these two forces? Which side will lose and which side will win?”
A sly smile appeared on Shao Xi's face, and he said to Han Zeng unhurriedly: "Master Xiangguo has already said that I am just a minister of Jingyuan Kingdom. As for who is a minister of Jingyuan Kingdom, I must judge the situation and adapt to the current situation. , as long as it is beneficial to you, it doesn’t matter who you serve as a minister. What matters is that you are still a minister of Jing Yuan Kingdom. There is no immortal person in this world, and there are no emperors for generations. The replacement of imperial power is always inevitable. , why can’t I place a bet in advance? Isn’t it normal for a junior to ask Mr. Xiangguo for some advice before placing a bet?”
Han Zeng immediately understood what Shao Xi meant. This boy believed that the imperial power of the Jingyuan Empire would definitely fall into the hands of one of the two forces in the future, so he wanted to choose sides in advance to avoid being blindsided by the situation. No benefit.
I didn't expect that this kid would have so many ideas at such a young age. It turned out that he was not a fuel-efficient person, but it was better this way. If there were entangled interests, it would be more likely to win him over.
"My little friend is really thoughtful and has a long-term vision. He is really a talented person who understands current affairs. To be honest, little friend, I am optimistic about the person who cooperates with me. This person currently has unique innate advantages, and at the same time in terms of talent and temperament Jing Yuan Chaotang is also more suitable to control the future. Compared with the person who cooperated with Fu Zuoliang, this person now has great power. As the situation develops in the future, he will definitely form a crushing trend and become the final winner. .”
Shao Xi hugged his shoulders and put his thumb on his chin, pretending to be deep in thought and said: "Master Xiangguo and the younger generation have very different opinions. The younger generation also feels that the future court of Jingyuan Empire must belong to the person mentioned by Lord Xiangguo. It is true that Mr. Xiangguo said that this person's current status already has huge advantages, not to mention that the Holy Emperor still trusts this person and entrusts him with great trust."
Han Zeng was originally worried that Shao Xi would ruin his good deeds after learning about this, but he didn't expect that now he had found a rare common ground of interest, which was a great opportunity to draw him into his own camp.
Having one more person like this cooperating with the Jingyuan Dynasty may help with future plans. Even if they cannot cooperate, there will be less resistance.
Han Zeng still recognized Shao Xi's ability very much. If such a young and promising person is willing to participate, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Even if we can't be partners, at least we shouldn't be enemies.
"If you really want to take refuge in one of the parties, my suggestion is to take refuge in this person. Not only will the risk of cooperation with this person be lower, but the benefits you will receive when things are done in the future will definitely exceed your imagination. Since the same person is As a minister in the court, why not choose the more advantageous side?"
"What Mr. Xiangguo said is true, and this junior also thinks so."
