Chapter 69 I Want to Go Crazy! Wang Shouzhe, the Boss Behind the Scenes

…

Return to Longcheng.

The main residence of the Zhao family.

As the only second-grade aristocratic family in Daqian, the main residence of the Zhao family is very large in area. Not only are the materials used exquisite, but the architectural layout is also magnificent, fully demonstrating the style of the aristocratic family.

Since the beginning of summer, the sun has been shining brightly in Guilong City, but today there was a rare thunderstorm.

On the roof, the blue glazed tiles have become much brighter after being washed by the rain. They look full of light and look even more luxurious.

At dusk, a brilliant sunset appeared on the horizon.

Bathed in the sunset, the entire Zhao family's main residence seemed to be coated with a soft red light, adding a bit of meaning.

Deep inside the main house.

In a study room with the plaque "Aspirations for Eternity", an old man in purple shirt was standing in front of the bookshelf, looking down at an ancient book.

It can be seen that he is already very old. His gray hair and wrinkles at the corners of his forehead and eyes are particularly obvious under the light of the fluorescent stone lamp.

But even so, his majestic demeanor and majestic momentum still make people dare not underestimate him. Wherever he stands, the room is filled with majesty.

This old man is the current first ancestor of the Zhao family, the current An Guogong, Zhao Bingsheng, the ancestor of Bingsheng.

When he was young, he was once a great talent. He swept through his peers with almost no defeats and enjoyed unlimited glory. He even defeated a great talent who wanted to try his luck in Kyoto, which greatly enhanced his prestige in the capital city.

But now, he is sixteen or seven hundred years old. At this age, even for those in the magical realm, he has entered his twilight years, so he has gradually retreated to the background, and now he rarely manages things.

However, he is the contemporary Duke of Anguo after all. Even though he has retreated behind the scenes, his prestige is still there. Whenever major decisions are made that are closely related to the future development of the entire family, his opinions still dominate.

Suddenly.

The study door was lightly knocked.

The boy's voice came from outside the door: "The Duke of the country, Grandpa Hongbo and Master Zhikun are outside asking for an audience."

"What's up?"

Anguo Gong Zhao Bingsheng put down the ancient books and asked casually.

"I don't know. Ancestor Hong Bo didn't say anything in detail. He only said that he had something very important. Please make sure to meet him," the boy replied.

Duke An Guo frowned slightly.

He knew Zhao Hongbo's temperament. As the elder of the family and the chief minister of the dynasty, Zhao Hongbo's status in the family was second only to him. In the future, when he falls, he will be the most powerful elder in the family. Even the newly appointed An Guogong may not be able to match him in terms of prestige due to his young age and junior qualifications.

But because of this, he is not actually close to me.

Unless there was something really important, he would never put down his dignity and take the initiative to come over and ask to see him. In other words, once Zhao Hongbo really comes, something big will happen, let alone bringing Zhao Zhikun with him.

Thinking of this, he had a headache, but he still said: "Let them come in."

After saying that, he turned around and walked behind the desk and sat down.

A moment later, Zhao Hongbo, still wearing court uniform, walked in with Zhao Zhikun. Obviously, these two people came to see him as soon as they got home, and they were so anxious that they didn't even have time to change their clothes.

As soon as he entered, Zhao Hongbo turned around and closed the study door, and also placed a ban on it.

Zhao Zhikun knelt down without saying a word, leaned over and kowtowed to An Guogong, crying: "Zhikun pays homage to the ancestor. Please help the ancestor!"

An Guogong's head hurt even more. He rubbed his temples and said, "Don't scream in a hurry. You have something to say. What's going on?"

"Is such that……"

At this point, there is no point in hiding it.

Zhao Zhikun also knew that if he was still hiding it and trying to hide it from An Guogong, he was seeking death. He immediately explained the situation in detail, and then said: "Mr. Kui has lost news for several days. Today, urgent news came from the secret line at the border, saying that Meng Yuanbai led his people to capture the smuggling ship on the spot at the border, and all the responders were captured alive. I concluded that something must have happened to Mr. Kui, otherwise the ship would not have arrived at all. Border.”

"Ancestor, Kun'er has been plotted by someone this time! They have already set up a trap and are waiting for me. If ancestor doesn't take action, Kun'er may be doomed this time!"

When An Guogong heard the first half, his face was already very ugly. When he heard the second half, he was so angry that he almost broke the table with a slap: "You! You are so good. Yes! You even dare to touch such things as smuggling. Did I, Mrs. Zhao, miss you in practicing elixirs or your spiritual food, so I let you be so unscrupulous?!"

Zhao Zhikun's face changed slightly after being scolded, and he said after a while: "Ancestor, this...smuggler is actually not me, I'm just helping to take care of it..."

Hearing this, An Guogong reacted immediately and his face changed: "It's not you, could it be..."

As he said this, he glanced at Zhao Hongbo next to him, only to see that his pupils were also constricted, and he couldn't hide his surprise. He obviously didn't know the situation beforehand.

However, if Zhao Hongbo had known about it in advance, with his sophistication and experience, he would not have been tricked so easily. The current situation will not become so bad.

An Guogong pointed at Zhao Zhikun, took a deep breath for a long time, and then managed to control his emotions. He gritted his teeth and said, "You will really give me Zhao family's face. Is Prince Kang crazy? He even dares to touch such a thing?"

"Old Ancestor, Prince Kang actually has no choice. Prince Dexin's family has many people, but the economy is average, so it is impossible to provide him with money endlessly. Although our Zhao family secretly provides three million dry gold every year to support Kang Prince. But in order to quickly expand his influence, Prince Kang needs money in too many places."

"Whether it is the [Breaking Dawn] organization, raising all kinds of strange people and disciples, or recruiting people from all walks of life to build up their reputation, which one is not expensive? Also, this time to go to the battlefield outside the territory to perform meritorious service, there is not a lot of money to clear the way. , will the soldiers fight to the death for him and quickly earn military exploits?"

"Although the subsidies provided by the Dexin lineage and our Zhao family are quite large, they are not prohibited."

"Of course I understand what you said, but this is not...forget it~ It doesn't matter whether it is you or King Kang who is smuggling. In the current situation, even if it is not you, it must be you. You have to handle this all by yourself, and you must not involve him."

Anguo Gong Zhao Bingsheng's tone was decisive.

After a pause, he asked again: "Also, besides Lao Kui, is there anyone else who handled this matter? Can Meng Yuanbai get any evidence that directly points to you?"

If there is no clear direct evidence, there is still room for action on this matter.

Zhao Zhikun was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Duke An Guo took another deep breath.

Seeing that An Guogong was so angry that he was about to lose his temper again, Zhao Hongbo on the side said quickly: "Old ancestor, scolding him now is of no use. Meng Yuanbai is already interrogating, and the results of the interrogation are probably out by now. You still have to Please help me find a solution, what should we do now?"

"What should we do?" An Guogong glanced at the two of them and said in a cold voice, "What else can we do? Now, we have only one way left to go. Go to the palace immediately to plead guilty and ask the emperor to be punished severely."

Zhao Zhikun's expression changed drastically when he heard this.

Once you enter the palace to plead guilty, you will be punished severely! His crime was sealed and there was no room for change. Ancestor, are you giving up on him?

Zhao Hongbo frowned, still unwilling to give up: "Kun'er was carefully cultivated by us. Once he..."

"madness!"

Before he could finish his words, Duke An Guo interrupted him coldly: "Once this matter gets serious and is punished by the hands of the Third Division, not only will his future be cut off, but I, the Zhao family, will also have to lose my reputation and suffer a lot. Impact. By then, it will be difficult for His Majesty to deal with it secretly."

"So, the top priority is to settle this matter before Meng Yuanbai and the others come back, and prevent the matter from continuing to ferment."

"Kun'er is a genius after all. If he takes the initiative to take responsibility for his crimes, Your Majesty, considering that I, the Zhao family, have been working hard for many years, will most likely be able to spare him and give him a chance to serve in a cannon fodder camp on an overseas battlefield. When he goes to the battlefield, with our support behind him, he will still have a chance to reach the magical realm, and his path forward will not be completely cut off."

There is another point he did not say explicitly.

After all, Zhao Zhikun was taking the blame for Prince Kang, and Prince Kang had to remember this sentiment no matter what. When Prince Kang comes to power in the future, Zhao Zhikun successfully advances to the supernatural realm. As long as he works properly, there is still a high possibility that Zhao Zhikun will come back.

Even if Zhao Zhikun is killed on the battlefield, Zhao can still get great benefits from this.

But the premise of all this is that the Zhao family cannot fall, and neither can Prince Kang.

Otherwise, all bets are off!

"Uncle Hong understands." Zhao Hongbo sighed, knowing that there was no room for change. "Then this can only be the case. No matter what, Prince Kang must be saved, otherwise, there will be no room for improvement. .”

An Guogong and Zhao Hongbo are the two ancestors with the greatest say among the Zhao family. Their words can be said to have decided Zhao Zhikun's future.

Zhao Zhikun's face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground, his heart filled with sadness.

It's all nonsense to say that if you perform meritorious deeds and have a chance to reach the realm of supernatural powers, it's all nonsense. What kind of place is the battlefield outside the territory? If you go to that place to commit crimes and perform meritorious service, isn't that just to be cannon fodder?

The cannon fodder battalion has always had the least human rights on the battlefield and does the most dangerous things.

There is no telling whether he can come back alive. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, if he is seriously injured, it will still affect his training and advancement. Moreover, in the battlefield outside the territory, there was a fight every now and then. He stayed in the cannon fodder camp, and it was unclear whether he would have time to heal his injuries.

Moreover, the Wang family is not without people on the battlefield outside the territory. Once he goes to the cannon fodder camp, how can they not seize the opportunity to add insult to injury and step on him severely? Impossible, they will definitely do that!

It can be said that once he goes to the outer battlefield, it will be very difficult for him to survive, let alone pursue the path of supernatural powers.

But he knew that going would mean a narrow escape from death.

If you don't go, it's a dead end.

His heart suddenly became extremely cold, and he hated Wang to the extreme.

…

The main residence of the Wang family in Daqian.

Four Seasons Garden.

Wang Shouzhe is under "house arrest" as always, and he cannot go anywhere until the truth is investigated.

However, he is a homebody by nature, and he likes this kind of comfortable life best. He spends every day in the garden tending to the flowers and plants, growing new varieties of spiritual plants and grains in his cave, or drinking tea and enjoying the sun. Sun, and then played chess with Wang Annan.

"Snapped!"

Wang Shouzhe's piece fell with a clang, and he said calmly: "Annan, you lost again. It seems that after all, you are still too young, have a wild temper, and can't calm down to practice your chess skills."

Wang Annan wiped the sweat from his forehead, bowed his hands and said, "Annan thanks Grandpa Fourth for his criticism. Annan will definitely calm down and practice hard."

He said it beautifully, but in his heart he was complaining wildly. Grandpa Fourth, you have lost too much in chess recently, so you came to take it out on him, a junior.

Recently, it has been spread in Duke Dingguo's palace that Wang Shouzhe is a stinky chess player who can't even play the game of his father, Wang Guangda. In other words, he can step on Wang Annan and gain some cheap feeling of superiority.

"Master Shouzhe is mighty."

Next to him, a woman with a veil and elegant temperament was gently shaking a folding fan to fan Wang Shouzhe.

She looked like a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world, with an ethereal temperament. She opened her little cherry mouth and spit out exaggerated flattery: "Your chess skills are truly unparalleled in ancient and modern times. You can kill Wang Annan doesn't leave any trace behind. Come on, come on, if you're tired, take a sip of ice drink and rest."

After saying that, she picked up a bowl of iced Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup in her delicate hands and raised her hand to feed Shouzhe.

"This... Tianyan, I can eat it by myself. I can eat it by myself." Wang Shouzhe quickly took the bowl and scooped out the lotus seed soup with a spoon.

Not to mention, Tianyan’s craftsmanship is pretty good, it’s sweet but not greasy, cold and refreshing.

A look of disappointment flashed across Fairy Tianyan's eyes, but then she said with a sweet smile: "Young Master, this is a craft that Tianyan specially learned for you~ There is a whole pot here, you can eat it slowly."

The process of conquering Mr. Shouzhe was extremely difficult, but after so many years, it was not without some gains. At least, now Mr. Shouzhe no longer opens his mouth to talk about his senior, which can be regarded as an improvement.

Take your time, you still have a long life.

When Wang Annan saw this scene, he felt envious and at the same time felt a burst of sadness in his heart.

Wang Annan, after all, is also the third person on the list of "Top Ten Outstanding Young People" in the capital... As a result, let alone being flattered by the beautiful fairies in various ways, even if he tries to please some fairies, he is basically in vain. It's a closed door.

"Annan, don't just stand there and try Tianyan's cooking. It's really good." Wang Shouzhe had already started to eat his second bowl.

Wang Annan's face lit up and he said gratefully: "The Fourth Master has been so kind to me..."

However, when he was about to reach out to scoop up the white fungus soup, he was secretly glared at by Fairy Tianyan. An invisible murderous intention made him tremble in his heart, and he quickly changed his words and said: "Fourth Master, I'm not hungry, and I don't like desserts very much. You can eat it~"

As soon as he finished speaking, another beautiful woman dressed in a glamorous goddess style came out of the kitchen of Four Seasons Garden, holding a whole plate of barbecued meat and grilled seafood in her hand.

"Master, don't be too greedy for sweets. Those are the gadgets that ladies only love to eat. As a man, you still need to eat more meat to be strong." Her voice was clear and clear, with a strong aura of abstinence.

"Wang Mei, the young master likes to eat the iced drinks I carefully prepared." Fairy Tianyan was very hostile and jealous of Wang Mei, so she immediately retorted, "Also, you should do your job well, and don't take advantage of it. Since Sister Ruolan is not with the young master, she clings to him."

"Tianyan, the head of the family and I have some secrets to discuss. If you are interested, you should leave immediately, otherwise you will be suspected of eavesdropping on information."

"The young master and Prince An are both related by marriage and allies. They are as close as one body. What secrets are there that I cannot hear? Besides, Sister Ruolan and I are sisters. Now that we are away from home, we should keep an eye on her. Mr. Shouzhe, please don’t let those warblers take advantage of you.”

"Sisters in love? It seems to me that you are clearly plotting against the head of the family and want to guard and steal."

The two of them were quarreling with each other, and bursts of murderous aura were exuding unscrupulously. Indeed, they are each responsible for intelligence work, and they have had many frictions and conflicts with each other privately.

The hostility at work was nothing more than a matter of fact that both of them were stubborn and harbored evil intentions toward Wang Shouzhe, and neither of them had any intention of giving up.

Now that the head of the family is alone and under house arrest in the Four Seasons Garden, what a golden opportunity is this? Naturally, the two women took advantage of the pretext of "delivering food" and used their own methods to try to conquer it. Even if you can't get it, you still try hard, right?

Shura Chang's (fake) murderous intention made Wang Annan next to him look envious and jealous.

Why are there no girls so jealous of him?

I can’t stay in this Four Seasons Garden any longer. In just a few games of chess, bucket after bucket of dog food was poured into his mouth, almost bursting his belly.

Wang Annan made a prompt decision and excused himself to leave.

But as soon as he walked to the door, he bumped into Prince An who came to visit.

"Isn't this Annan? You don't look very good, and you were abused by your fourth master again?" Prince An patted his shoulder and said excitedly, "Don't worry, I will win it back for you in a while. With my chess skills, killing Shou Zhe is like chopping melons and vegetables."

Although it is not honorable to abuse food, playing chess with Wang Shouzhe is the only way for him to gain a precious sense of superiority from Wang Shouzhe, and Prince An naturally enjoys it.

Wang Annan, who was at the bottom of the food chain, originally wanted to remind Prince An, but when he saw his face of "being rampant when he is in power", he immediately stopped thinking.

You can’t eat dog food alone, it’s only fun if everyone eats it together~

At that moment, he pretended not to know, and obediently raised his hands to express his thanks: "Annan, thank you, Your Highness. However, Annan has something else to do, so he will leave first."

"Go, go, watch me kill Shouzhe for 300 rounds." Anjun Wangzhi walked into the Four Seasons Garden with great satisfaction.

Not long after, King An's embarrassed voice came out: "I didn't expect...cough cough cough~ Shouzhe is so interested, so interested. Mingyuan suddenly remembered that there is something else, so I won't disturb him."

"Coming back is not what you imagined..."

"J……"

"Come back, I really have something important to ask of Your Highness."

Prince An gritted his teeth and went back tremblingly.

After just one stick of incense, as soon as he heard the important news, he ran out again, with a look of despair as he had been stuffed with countless pieces of dog food.

…

royal palace.

Inside the Humble Administrator's Pavilion.

The five chubby little wolf cubs jumped up and down happily, performing various special skills. The purpose was of course the roasted spiritual meat in the hands of Emperor Longchang.

The magical spiritual treasure Pixiu has been very depressed recently, because the emperor often stuffs a lot of roasted spiritual meat into its belly and does not allow it to resist.

If the emperor's force value hadn't been too high, Pixiu would have started swearing.

Pixiu was sulking alone, but Dadi was having a great time. During this period of time, whenever he had troubles, he relied on these cute little wolves to help him resolve them.

Just when Emperor Longchang was having a great time.

"Your Majesty." The commander of the internal guards came to report, "Old Zhao Ge and Zhao Zhikun are asking to see Your Majesty."

Zhao Hongbo?

Emperor Longchang, who was teasing the little wolf cub, frowned slightly: "What is that old guy doing here?"

After a pause, he waved his hand and said, "Just say that I am busy reviewing the papers, and let him wait outside the Humble Administrator's Pavilion."

Didn't the cabinet send a lot of articles to impeach Wang Shouzhe? It's "normal" for him to be busy.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The commander of the inner guard ordered to retreat.

The building area of ​​Humble Administrator's Pavilion is not small, and it is equipped with formations to isolate sounds and prevent the exploration of spiritual thoughts. Of course, there are not many people who are bold enough to use their spiritual thoughts to explore around the palace.

Therefore, whatever bad things Emperor Longchang did inside, it would be difficult for outsiders to notice.

While feeding the little wolf cub, he asked with half interest: "Old Yao, that old guy Zhao Hongbo doesn't want to come to the Three Treasures Hall for any reason. He won't be bold enough to come and urge me to investigate Wang Shouzhe, right?"

"It shouldn't be the case, right?" Old Yao said, "Mr. Zhao Ge has always been calm in his thinking and would not be so rash. What's more, he brought Zhao Zhikun with him this time. Presumably, it must be related to Zhao Zhikun."

"Haha, I just came back from the battlefield outside the territory, and I can't wait to ask for a reward for him. Humph, just wait slowly and give them a good show."

In recent days, Emperor Longchang had unknowingly become more and more dissatisfied with Zhao, and he did not think of the good in everything.

After saying that, Emperor Longchang began to feed the cubs again, leaving the Zhao family behind.

This tossing took more than two hours.

Zhao Hongbo and Zhao Zhikun stood like this for two hours outside the Humble Administrator's Pavilion, until the sunset completely disappeared from the horizon, and until the bright moon hung high, their expressions were still serious, and they did not say a word, not even a single sentence. complain.

But while they were waiting, an old man wearing a prince's clothes and a prince's crown walked over.

Although his temples are gray and he looks old, there is a heroic and noble air between his eyebrows, which makes people fall in love with him at first sight.

As soon as the inner guard saw him, he hurriedly saluted: "See Prince Deshun."

Prince Deshun!

This is the only remaining prince among the elders of Prince An, and he is only a few years younger than Prince Dexin.

Zhao Hongbo and Zhao Zhikun also quickly saluted according to the rules: "I have met Prince Deshun."

At the same time, both of them felt a little bit in their hearts, secretly thinking that something was wrong. Why did Prince Deshun suddenly come at this special moment?

"Hey, isn't this the Chief Assistant?" Prince Deshun said as if he had just discovered Zhao Hongbo and Zhao Hongbo, with a face full of surprise, "Are you bringing Zhikun to pay homage to His Majesty? Why are you standing outside?"

Zhao Hongbo said calmly: "Your Majesty is busy reviewing the papers, please ask me to wait for a while."

Wait a moment?

Prince Deshun was slightly startled and looked at the commander of the inner guard on the side, "How long have you been staying here, Lord Chief Assistant?"

"It's been two hours since I got back to Your Highness," the commander of the inner guard answered honestly.

"Two hours? Your Majesty actually made the chief minister of the cabinet stand outside for two hours?" Prince Deshun looked "shocked" in disbelief, "How can our ancestors have so many mistakes to approve? Most chores, Isn’t it all handled by the cabinet? Lord Chief Minister, this is your fault. Our ancestor is old and has devoted his whole life to Da Qian. Why don’t you let him have some leisure time now? What is your cabinet doing? How did you do it?"

In this way, Zhao Hongbo has not yet responded, and Zhao Zhikun, who is young and energetic, is a little unsure. Can you, a mere old prince with no real power, be able to point fingers at the chief minister of the cabinet?

Zhao Hongbo stopped him with a look, and then calmly explained to Prince Deshun: "Everything has been turbulent recently, and there are indeed more chores. It's because my cabinet is not doing things well, and it's your Majesty's fault."

"Indeed, there seems to be a lot going on. I just returned to the capital and heard a lot of messy things." Prince Deshun also looked a little unhappy, "I just wanted to talk to His Majesty."

Without waiting for Prince Deshun to find someone to report, Lao Yao took the lead and walked forward with a smile and saluted: "Your Highness, you are really a rare guest. When His Majesty learned that you were coming, he asked the old slave to come out to welcome you. Please go to Zhuo Let’s discuss it in the cabinet.”

"Old Yao, after so many years, you still don't look old." Prince Deshun greeted him with a smile, appearing to be quite familiar with Old Yao.

Zhao Hongbo on the side raised his hand and said: "Since His Highness Deshun has something important to do with His Majesty, it is not convenient for us to disturb him. Let's come and see His Majesty tomorrow."

I came here to plead guilty today, and naturally I wanted to deal with it in a low-key manner. How could I be on the same stage as Deshun?

“Don’t~~”

Prince Deshun came "under orders" this time, how could he let them go?

He immediately grabbed Zhao Hongbo's arm enthusiastically and said, "Uncle Hong, you are the chief minister of the cabinet. You have been waiting outside for two hours. You must have something important to discuss with your majesty. I am just doing some trivial matters. The main thing is I still come to visit my ancestors, I won’t hinder you.”

After that, he couldn't help but pull Zhao Hongbo into the Humble Administrator's Pavilion. Zhao Zhikun looked ugly and felt aggrieved, but he did not dare to say anything and followed closely.

After some greetings.

"Seeing that the ancestors are in good health, the children will feel relieved." Even though Prince Deshun is old, he still pretends to be "I am a child", which does seem a bit shameless and shameless.

He fought hard for the position of Prince An's imperial son.

In the past, because Prince An's winning rate was too low, Prince Deshun didn't think too much about it and naturally went with the flow.

But things are different now.

Ever since Mingyuan's old-fashioned brat hooked up with Wang Shouzhe, things started to turn around and he was promoted step by step. The voices from all walks of life were getting louder and louder, and there was a vague tendency to compete with Prince Kang.

Not only that, but now he has the opportunity to kill the opponent with one blow. How can Prince Deshun not be excited? At this moment, he was as if he had been given a shot of blood, full of desire to fight, and he could fight for anything.

Emperor Longchang still did this. Hearing what Prince Deshun said, he smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face bloomed. He spat at him and cursed: "You are already full of wrinkles, and you are still a child. Don't worry. , I have been in a pretty good mood recently and my body is still in good shape. But Deshun, you should take good care of yourself and don't die in front of me."

Although scolded, Deshun was one of his descendants after all, and because he was very talented since childhood, Longchang also took good care of him, and his feelings were naturally close.

There are currently only eleven princes in the royal family, and one of them is his son-in-law. Emperor Longchang naturally treats them quite well.

Living to the level of Emperor Longchang, he had so many bloodline heirs that even he himself could not keep track of them. If you are not even a genius, you may never see the emperor in your lifetime.

Only people like Wu Xuening, Wu Hanheng in his youth, and Wu Yingji, who was promising to become a great genius, could get the emperor's real attention and enjoy his loving side.

"By the way, state affairs are the most important thing." Prince Deshun said to Zhao Hongbo after "selling out", "The Chief Assistant has been waiting for two hours. I think there must be something important to discuss with His Majesty. You can talk first."

Even with Zhao Hongbo's deep scheming, he couldn't help but twitch his eyelids and almost wanted to curse.

He took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "It's rare for Prince Deshun to come to the capital, so let's settle your matter first."

He planned to wait until Deshun's incident was settled, and then send him away first on the pretext that he had something confidential to report.

Of course, the fewer people who know about that kind of thing, the better, especially when Deshun is still the biggest "political enemy."

"That's okay." Prince Deshun's face suddenly became solemn, and he immediately cried to Emperor Longchang, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Wang family of Changning not only evaded taxes, but also smuggled and collaborated with the enemy! Please forgive me for such evil behavior." We must immediately investigate and deal with him severely, especially the evil king Shouzhe, who must be punished severely and must not be tolerated, Your Majesty."

"What? Investigate and punish the Wang family severely?" Emperor Longchang looked confused.

He originally thought that Prince Deshun came all the way to Beijing to excuse the Wang family, but he didn't expect that he actually came to demand strict punishment?

Not only Emperor Longchang, but also Zhao Hongbo and Zhao Zhikun looked at Deshun with suspicion.

Aren’t you Prince An and the Wang family so good that they wear a pair of trousers? It's okay if you don't come to plead for mercy. What the hell is asking for severe punishment?

"Your Majesty." Prince Deshun looked incomprehensible with grief and anger, and howled righteously, "Who is my Deshun family? Everyone is a conscientious person who serves the country and the people, especially the kid Mingyuan, even more so. He is a man of honest nature and has a mind for all people. How can he be surrounded by such treacherous men as Wang Shouzhe and Wang Zonganna who spend all day instigating and instigating him? Your Majesty, please take action quickly and punish him severely."

Both Zhao Hongbo and Zhao Hongbo took a deep breath.

You, Prince Deshun, are too cool-tempered, right? The fact that Prince An of your family is able to gain momentum is clearly due to the Wang family's full support.

Now Prince An has become more powerful, and after the Wang family got into trouble, you not only refused to help, but you even tried your best to cut off the relationship and put him to death!

For a moment, even Zhao Zhikun was shocked by Prince Deshun's shamelessness.

Just when Emperor Longchang's face became increasingly gloomy.

However, Zhao Hongbo felt a thump in his heart and thought to himself that it was not good.

The Zhao family was just about to cover up the matter, plead guilty, characterize the matter before it spread completely, and eliminate the subsequent impact, but Prince Deshun jumped out at this moment and shouted They shouted that Wang would be severely punished.

As long as Prince Deshun drags it on for a few days, things will inevitably get bigger and bigger.

And once they have no time to confess their guilt in advance, when Meng Yuanbai reveals the truth, it will not only be Zhao Zhikun's problem, but the entire Zhao family will be dragged into the quagmire.

Seeing the change in Zhao Hongbo's expression, Prince Deshun scolded Wang Shouzhe, but at the same time he admired Wang Shouzhe, whom he had never met before.

That kid is really a god.

Even Zhao's plan to abandon his car to protect his commander was considered.

Just as Wang Shouzhe said, Zhao was too naive in thinking about this matter. Now that the situation has been pushed to this point, how can Zhao be allowed to give up his car to save his commander and get through so easily?

This time, his goal was not just as simple as cutting off an arm of his opponent.

A series of plans have just begun.

What he wants is to completely reverse the situation in the battle between the emperor and his son, and win or lose in one round!

That Wang Shouzhe was really very ambitious. When he came to the capital for the first time, he didn't even move from the Four Seasons Garden, and he was already ready to completely overthrow the whole world.

…
