My Brother Ying Zheng, Who Dares to Kill Me?

Chapter 684 Chu Long? He Looks Like a Dog! Please Ask Zuo Shi to Bear the Infamy for the Great Zhao!

The north wind howls.

Snow is falling.

It seemed particularly lonely outside the gate of Longtai Palace.

Chulong stood outside the gate of Longtai Palace and shouted at the palace with all his strength:

"As a king, your Majesty, you should know right from wrong and loyalty from traitor!"

"There are many colleagues who have spoken out to the king, but they are all dedicated to serving the country!"

"Gongzi Jia was once a prince, but he has been imprisoned in the palace since the king ascended the throne. I just hope that the king can understand his intentions."

"How can your Majesty arbitrarily imprison the prince and all his loyal ministers?!"

"This is really the act of a foolish king!"

"Your Majesty made a mistake, Master Zuo should rebuke him directly!"

"Now, Master Zuo touches the dragon to ask for an audience with the king, to give him direct advice!"

Behind Chulong, Mao Sui and dozens of other important ministers of the Zhao state knelt on the ground, staring at Longtai Palace, with deep anger and unwillingness burning in their eyes!

In recent generations, the lifespan of Zhao kings is generally short. All the important ministers of Zhao State present have not only served King Zhao once, but have even experienced the scene when King Zhao ascended the throne for the first time.

Therefore, they can understand all kinds of strange things that Zhao Wangqian did because of his young age, as well as Zhao Wangqian's involuntary actions.

Because of this, they could not allow Guo Kai to bewitch Zhao Wangqian and use Zhao Wangqian's hand to eliminate dissidents.

Guo Kai directly used Zhao Wangqian's name to imprison Prince Jia and dozens of upright and loyal ministers without any reason, which broke their bottom line!

There is not much of Zhao's elite left.

If Zhao Wangqian and Guo Kai are allowed to continue such nonsense, Zhao Guo's foundation will be empty!

For the sake of Zhao, for the entrustment of the late king, and for the family behind them that is deeply tied to the interests of Zhao.

Even though some of the imprisoned courtiers were their former political opponents, and there were people they wished they could kill quickly, they still gathered here and begged King Zhao to investigate!

On the palace wall of Longtai Palace, Guo Kai looked down at this veteran of the Five Dynasties, Tuogu, Guzhong, and Assistant Minister outside the city, and chuckled: "He looks like a dog!"

Behind Guo Kai, more than a dozen courtiers and eunuchs laughed out loud: "Hahahaha~ Guo Xiang's description is so accurate!"

"The king is busy playing with Mei Ji, how can he have time to pay attention to him? But he is still barking outside the palace gate, no different from a dog!"

"It's still a fierce dog!"

Zhao Cong smiled and cupped his hands: "Xiangbang, please order me to lead the troops and put all these barking dogs in prison."

"Longtai Palace is the most important place of our empire, and it is also where the king sleeps."

"How can we let them bark as they please?!"

Guo Kai smiled and shook his head: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious."

"Master Zuo is, after all, an important minister appointed by the late king to assist the government. No matter what Master Zuo has done, he cannot be imprisoned."

"Otherwise, how do people in the world view the truth?"

"Everyone, please sit down and watch."

Guo Kai doesn't care what the world thinks of him, but Guo Kai cares how Zhao Wangqian thinks of him.

If Zhao Wangqian is wary of him because of a dragon touch, it's not worth it!

Outside Longtai Palace, Chulong, Mao Sui and others swallowed wind and drank snow, shouting and cursing endlessly.

In the Longtai Palace, Guo Kai, Zhao Cong and others gathered close to the charcoal fire, eating barbecued meat and drinking warm wine. From time to time, they even touched the dragon with their fingers and chatted and laughed with them. It was so joyful.

It was getting late, and Chulong and others, who had been shouting all day but had not received any water, finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"Master Zuo, please go back home and rest first."

Mao Sui helped Chulong stand up and said seriously: "Master Zuo is not afraid of wind and snow and endures the bitter cold."

"But the Prime Minister lives in Longtai Palace, feasting and enjoying himself."

"The lower official thinks that Xiangbang just hopes to use this to drain Zuo Shi's mind and physical strength."

"If Master Zuo falls ill one day, the only assistant minister in the court will be Xiangbang, and no one will be able to be his enemy."

"Except for Xiangbang, no one is qualified to teach and control the king."

"I, Da Zhao, what should I do?"

Although Guo Kai and others were hiding on the gate tower, it was difficult for Chu Long and others to not notice those glances that fell from time to time.

Smelling the aroma of meat in the air, Chulong felt even more sad in his heart: "Ahem! The late king misjudged Xiangbang!"

"You misjudged Xiangbang!"

"How can I return home peacefully? How can I sleep peacefully!"

After Mao Sui was silent for a few breaths, he sighed softly: "The guards at the palace gate, the ministers, and the eunuchs all obey the Prime Minister's orders."

"The Prime Minister also banned the king from participating in government affairs on the grounds that the king was young and unwilling to govern."

"If the Prime Minister does not allow us to meet the King, we will have no chance to meet the King, let alone face the King to directly admonish him."

"If you want to persuade the king again, I can only hope to achieve success by calling back Lord Wu'an!"

Mao Sui saw it clearly.

It makes no sense for them to kneel, sit and chant outside.

As long as Guo Kai did not open the palace door, their calls would not reach Zhao Wangqian's ears even if they floated into the high wall.

When all conventional means failed to allow Guo Kai to open the palace door, then they could only use another method.

Recall Li Mu and use force to intimidate him!

Chulong rejected it without hesitation: "No!"

"The dispatch of generals is an order that only the king can give. I am only the Zuo Shi and have no right to recall Lord Wu An."

Mao Sui said anxiously: "Master Zuo, you are not only Master Zuo, but also the minister in charge of Zhao's affairs. No one can say anything even if you recall Lord Wu An."

"And Mr. Wu An has deep faith in Zuo Shi. As long as Zuo Shi gives the order, Mr. Wu An will quickly lead his troops back to the court and solve this dilemma!"

As Zuo Shi, Chulong's duty was to advise King Zhao Qian.

Even if Li Mu was willing to obey his orders, Chulong would not do it!

Chulong waved his hand: "Jun Wu'an is the general who guards the west side of Zhao on behalf of me and is on guard against the Qin army. You can't move lightly!"

"If I really recall Lord Wu An, what's the difference between me and the Prime Minister?"

"If your Majesty follows my example in the future, how can I advise you?"

"Don't mention these remonstrances that are inconsistent with laws, etiquette, and regulations!"

Mao Sui said sadly: "Master Zuo, Prime Minister, he is already doing things that are against the rules, etiquette, and rules."

"If we still adhere to the etiquette and laws, how can we fight against the prime minister?"

"This time, it was Prince Jia and dozens of loyal ministers who were imprisoned for no reason. What about next time?"

"What about next time?"

"If the prime minister is allowed to act like this, Zhao will be close to being destroyed!"

"I would like to ask Master Zuo to shoulder the blame for Zhao!"

Chulong opened his mouth to say something, but no sound came out.

Chulong always holds itself to extremely high standards.

After serving as Zuo Shi, Chulong has always led by example.

In Chulong's view, only if he sets an example and becomes an upright person can he be qualified to advise the king not to do stupid things.

But today, Mao Sui put a difficult problem in front of Chulong.

I want to set a good example for the King and continue to be an upright person.

Or should he destroy the golden body that he has maintained for a lifetime for the sake of the survival of Zhao State?

After dozens of breaths, Chulong finally sighed softly: "I need to think about it, I need to think about it carefully."

Chulong should think carefully about the subsequent impact this matter will have.

Chulong should think carefully about who should take over his position when his golden body is destroyed and Wude becomes the left master.

Mao Sui was overjoyed and hurriedly supported Chulong: "Master Zuo, please go back home first so that you can think about it!"

Above the gate of Longtai Palace.

Seeing Chulong stand up, Guo Kai also stood up and said with a smile: "I originally thought Master Zuo would kneel outside the palace gate until dawn."

"I never thought that Master Zuo would be returning home before the sun set."

"Master Zuo is getting old after all!"

"Zhao Shangqing, why don't you go and invite Master Zuo into the palace?!"

Zhao Cong smiled and cupped his hands: "Wei!"

The small banquet at the gate tower of Longtai Palace quickly dispersed, and Guo Kai and others went off to prepare.

Zhao Cong hurriedly ran down the palace wall, asked the guards to open the palace door, and shouted loudly: "Master Zuo, wait a minute!"

Chulong looked back and asked coldly: "Did Zhao Shangqing finally hear my call?"

Zhao Cong cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Master Zuo, forgive me! Forgive me!"

"Master Zuo is a minister of state affairs, how dare I neglect you?"

"It's just that the king is too tired, and Xiangbang specifically asked the king to have a good rest."

"I didn't dare to delay the king's rest, so I didn't dare to come to greet Zuo Shi until the king woke up."

Chulong's eyes suddenly widened: "What did Zhao Shangqing say?"

"The king just woke up?!"

Looking at the sun that was about to set, Chulong was so angry that his Qiqiao was filled with smoke.

It's almost dark now, and the king just woke up?

Does your Majesty know how to read and observe politics by holding a candle?

The king has just woken up now, and he must be going to some entertainment activities that are more enjoyable only at night!

Chulong shouted angrily: "As a doctor, you are so willing to let the king waste his energy and drain himself?!"

Zhao Cong said calmly: "I am just a doctor, and I am not responsible for admonishing."

Chulong waved his sleeves and said: "Since Zhao Shangqing is not responsible for admonishing the king, then I will be the one to admonish the king!"

Mao Sui took Chulong's hand and whispered, "Master Zuo, calm down!"

"They only allowed Master Zuo to enter the palace late at night, so there must be some fraud!"

"Master Zuo, please think twice and come back tomorrow to give me advice!"

Zhao Cong almost had the words "There is a fraud in the palace" written on his face. Mao Sui didn't understand why Chulong still went to the palace.

Chulong looked back at Mao Sui and said in a deep voice: "The king is in the palace!"

Chulong didn't know that there might be an ambush waiting for him in the palace.

But just like the Prime Minister of the State of Zhao back then, he was just as generous as he was.

Even if he knew there was an ambush, so what?

The king is in the palace!

If there was really an ambush in the palace, Chulong would have to use his life to break Guo Kai's ambush instead of putting Zhao Wangqian in danger!

Mao Sui said bitterly: "Master Zuo..."

Without letting Mao Sui finish, Chulong patted the back of Mao Sui's hand: "Don't worry."

"Everything has its own authority."

"If I am in trouble, I will still have you!"

"Great Zhao, live forever!"

Pushing Mao Sui's hand away, Chulong strode forward and said in a deep voice: "Lead the way!"

Zhao Cong smiled and raised his right hand: "Master Zuo, please!"

Following Zhao Cong, Chulong walked into the deep and cold Longtai Palace without fear.

When the huge mouth-like palace door of Longtai Palace suddenly closed.

Chulong's figure also disappeared without a trace!
