Han You didn't even bother to complain when he saw Lao Ba's bad behavior.
"You said His Royal Highness King Zhao was under house arrest, but as a result, there wasn't even a guard at the door. If you took it seriously, how could such a thing happen?"
The old man was still unhappy after being sprayed, and muttered: "What do I want you to do?"
"Oh shit." Han You was completely angry: "I am your wife, or am I the one who gave birth to the child? You don't care if you let me, a foreign minister, take care of it, let me, a foreign minister, keep taking care of it, I have shares Ah or something, Zhou Ke, are you talking humanly, I will help you take care of your son, or four sons, and then I have to perform martial arts, and at the same time deal with the affairs of Honglu Temple, do you think you are the only one who is busy, and I am three-headed and six-armed?"
"Uh... I just said it casually." Lao Ba kept smiling: "Don't take it to heart, it's my fault."
Han You was furious. In fact, this was the root cause of his anger.
He felt that Lao Ba did not take Lao San seriously at all. If he did, how could he not send imperial guards to guard the Chen Mansion under strict supervision? It was precisely because of being too arrogant and arrogant that Zhou Bi We took advantage of the opportunity to solve this major case.
If the third child had done something else and killed other people, even if he had killed all the other envoys, Han You would not be so angry.
Only Goguryeo, only Goguryeo, which has a large number of warships and may invade the East China Sea at any time, touching the people of Goguryeo is tantamount to giving others a reason to start a war.
A Yingdao, just to deal with a Yingdao, requires a lot of preparation work in the early stage, killing the aristocratic families and rectifying the boat divisions. Even so, it only has the ability to defend the coastline. To put it simply, it can only be beaten, not fight back, and is being beaten at the same time. , while building warships.
It's good for the third child. One Yingdao is enough to cause a headache, and it also provokes Goguryeo.
Even if Goguryeo didn't want to go to war with Zhou Dynasty, six of the most distinguished members of the envoy were killed. If they didn't start a fight, where would they put their face?
You must know that Goguryeo is not a stick for future generations. The people in power have no blood at all. They don’t even have the right to command during the war. Goguryeo is a powerful country with countless warships. Both the monarchs and the people are relatively united. They have been bullied by outsiders. Domestic will be consistent with the outside world.
"It's my fault, I was negligent in discipline."
Lao Ba accepted the criticism humbly, but he did not put down the sword in his hand.
In the human world, the fact that Lao Ba is now apologetic and smiling does not mean that he is like this to everyone. In fact, the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty can only apologize to Han You with a smiling face.
"The assassin is the bodyguard of your third son."
Han You was distraught and finished speaking in one breath: "On the pretext of bribed by the Yidao Guards who knew the secret recipe of gunpowder, we gathered the chief, deputy and four lorded Condor Shooters to hold a banquet in the backyard of the courtyard where we were staying. It was the steward of Prince You's Mansion, and he brought five guards, including four archers, and the remaining guard was a man pretending to be a sword guard. When the guard got up to greet him, before he had time to react, his throat was sealed with a knife, and the four archers were shot to death. The four eagle shooters and the steward of the palace killed the deputy envoy. It happened in an instant. The tacit cooperation was clearly planned and rehearsed for a long time. They used long swords in the army to lead the suspicion to us Zhou people. The arrow was only from the south. The poisonous arrows that are only available in the army are blamed on the Confederate Army. To be precise, they were given to me."
After saying a few words, Lao Ba's blood boiled and his eyes turned red like something.
Wen and Wu were horrified when they heard this: "Is it because you framed the commander-in-chief to prevent you from going to the East China Sea?"
"good."
"Wow, what a Zhou Ben."
Knowing a son is no better than a father, Lao Ba shouted viciously: "What scandalous thing did he do in the East China Sea that he is so afraid of you that he rushes to the East China Sea?"
Wen and Wu couldn't help but say: "His Royal Highness King Zhao is so capable, planning such a big conspiracy alone."
"What do you call your highness?" Lao Ba yelled without hesitation: "You call me traitor!"
"Oh." Wen Wu was also confused and looked at Han You: "The traitor planned it alone?"
Han You opened his mouth, but still did not correct Wen Wu: "According to what Lao San said, he can put an end to the war in Goguryeo. I don't think he is so capable. He has only been in the East China Sea for a long time. The real friends with Goguryeo should be the Donghai family and the The boat master, when I asked him at that time, he used the word 'we'. There should be someone assisting him secretly. People from the East China Sea assisted. It was not an ordinary family. At least they had connections in the south. Ordinary people couldn't get poison arrow wood. juice, by the way, those idiots also promised to help Zhou Bian become the commander-in-chief of the navy within ten years."
"You are so courageous. Yes, with the ability of this traitor, he cannot cause such a big disaster."
Lao Ba followed Han You's example and rubbed the center of his brow vigorously: "The traitor didn't reveal his accomplices?"
"Flying Fish Elephant is asking."
"Don't ask anymore. When Han You leaves the palace later, Wenwu, you go to the Chen Mansion and execute all the palace guards. This is a serious matter and no news should be revealed."
"Are you going to be tortured?"
"No need." Lao Ba's face was full of cold light: "No matter how much they know, they can still know more than that traitor."
Han You reminded: "Your wife has a tough mouth, so be harder when you hit her."
"Hit?" Lao Ba snorted: "If the fight had worked, he wouldn't be here today."
Han You's expression changed drastically: "Your Majesty, please don't be impulsive, that is your own flesh and blood."
Lao Ba's eyes grew colder and he remained silent.
Han You's heart skipped a beat, and when he was about to persuade him again, Wen Wu shook his head.
In fact, Han You was afraid of this kind of thing, deep down in his heart.
Take the previous emperor as an example. Were he cruel and ruthless from the moment he was born?
Of course not. This foolish king and tyrant once had a childhood, a smile, and a beautiful yearning for the world.
Later, because of circumstances, an opportunity, or status, he may have lost his mind for a moment and punished a slave. Then he got out of control and executed a person. Gradually, he no longer took human life seriously. When he encountered If there is a problem, kill them all. Kill them all. If you can't solve the problem, kill the people who raised the problem and created the problem.
Killing others and killing one's own people are two completely different concepts.
When you kill your own people, people you know well, you will gradually lose some things, trust and other emotions.
Zhou Bi's crime is indeed unforgivable, but he is Lao Ba's biological son after all. If Lao Ba can even kill his own son, once this precedent is set, once he really becomes more cold-blooded, Han You dare not think Went down.
"Your Majesty, a tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds." Han You stood up quickly: "If Zhao Wangdian really committed an unforgivable crime, he should...should be imprisoned in the sky prison, and at least give him a chance to make amends. Your Majesty, please think twice. "
"enough."
For the first time, Lao Ba turned his face towards Han You and said, "Wenwu, bring that traitor out."
"His Majesty!"
Han You was completely anxious and subconsciously took the sword away from Lao Ba's hand.
After grabbing the sword, Han You kept retreating: "Your Majesty, he is your biological son, your biological flesh and blood, even...even..."
Han You gritted his teeth and almost lost his mind: "Even if you can avoid the death penalty and be imprisoned in the army, imprisoned, and have to cry and repent for the rest of your life, I still...can't be killed by you!"
"Wenwu, why are you still standing there? Bring that traitor out!"
Wenwu sighed and walked up the steps.
"His Majesty!"
Han You fell to his knees with a plop: "Mingzong will punish you, and the country will come to punish you. I beg you!"
This kneeling is not to plead for Zhou Ben, but because I don't want Lao Ba to "change", or even if he doesn't change, he will regret it for the rest of his life. Many people, many, many people, especially those in high positions, when regret becomes a After torture, you will become numb, and you will do more things that you regret, so that you will no longer regret anything.
Lao Ba had no expression on his face, he just turned around and looked at the main hall with his hands behind his back.
When he saw Wen Wu and Lu Baichuan bringing Zhou Bi out, Lao Ba's eyes were a little moist, but his eyes were still cold.
