Xu Qi'an nodded with a gloomy face: "The princes are exhausted, but His Majesty has not benefited. It is estimated that it will be a long tug-of-war."

Huaiqing raised his elegant and refined face, staring at him with black eyes as bright as those of the Qingtan after autumn, he laughed at him and said, "You really are not suitable for court."

"?"

Did I say something wrong, you want to hit me like this? Xu Qi'an frowned.

"This chess game is also boring, I'm not interested anymore, why don't I review today's court affairs with you." Princess Huaiqing gently threw the chess piece into the bamboo strip chess box.

Xu Qi'an's spirit lifted.

"Today, the court was discussing how to deal with the Chuzhou case. The princes demanded that the father be convicted of King Huai's crimes, demote him to a commoner, and hang his head on the wall for three days. The father was unbearable in grief and lost control of his emotions. He raised a big case and denounced the officials. "

Huaiqing smiled: "It's a bitter trick, first of all, we shut the palace for a few days to avoid the sharp edge, and let the angry civil and military officials punch the cotton.

"After they calmed down and stabilized their emotions, they lost that irresistible vigor. When the court meeting started, there was another moment, which not only disintegrated the last remaining courage of the princes, but even turned against the guests, making the princes fearful and changed. prudence"

This is like a fight between two people. One of them suddenly becomes mad and hits himself on the head with a brick. The other person will definitely be instinctively afraid, cautious, and he is a lunatic.The routine is not clever, but it works. Xu Qi'an has to bear it. Emperor Yuan Jing has a few brushes.

"Then, Yao Lin from the Ministry of Rites jumped out to impeach Wang Shoufu. Wang Shoufu only had to beg for bones. This is the plan of killing two birds with one stone. First beat Wang Shoufu to the ground, and he will lose a major enemy in this court meeting. And it can deter All officials, kill chickens to make an example to monkeys."

Huaiqing took a sip of tea and said lightly:

"Fortunately, Wei Gong took action in time, isn't it to rule Wang Shoufu? Then don't leave room for it. But this is contrary to the original intention of the father. He didn't really want to stop Wang Shoufu. This would make Wei Gong's family dominate. Heh, For Wei Gong, taking this opportunity to get rid of Wang Shoufu is also a wonderful thing."

Xu Qi'an swallowed, and unconsciously straightened his sitting posture.

"The strategy of killing chickens to scare monkeys failed, and my father immediately asked Yuan Xiong, the censor of Zuodu, to take action to show the face of the royal family. You must know that from ancient times to the present, the dignity of the royal family is second only to the dignity of the imperial court. It has a natural oppressive force on the princes. " Princess Huaiqing said in a deep voice.

As a courtier, he wholeheartedly wants to discredit the royal family, which will undoubtedly cause psychological pressure on the princes. Xu Qi'an nodded slowly.

The struggle between people is nothing more than armed struggle and psychological games.

Just like a word he often heard before crossing: pua

"This is to pave the way for the subsequent appearance of King Li. Yuan Xiong is not a member of the royal family after all, and the father is not suitable to be this scolder. The highly respected King Li is the best role. Although this trick was cracked by Duke Wei."

While clearing away the chess pieces, Huaiqing said, "But King Li's troubles are somewhat effective. And these are all paving the way for Duke Cao's subsequent appearance.

"Use the face of the court and the royal family to move it with emotion. Use the ending of killing the barbarians and monsters to make sense. Although Chuzhou City is gone, all of this was done by the monsters and barbarians.

"The people have long been accustomed to the brutality of the monsters and barbarians, and they can easily accept this ending. But the monsters and barbarians did not reap the benefits, because King Zhenbei killed the leader of the Qingyan tribe of the barbarians and severely injured the leader of the northern monsters. Nine.

"Let me ask, what will happen if the people hear the news and are willing to accept it?"

Xu Qi'an said calmly: "The destruction of Chuzhou City is not so unacceptable. Because all the crimes are attributed to the two tribes of monsters and barbarians, and are attributed to the war.

"The king of Zhenbei has also changed from a murderer who slaughtered the city to a hero who guards the country for the great lord. Moreover, he also killed the third-rank strong man of the barbarian tribe, making a great contribution to the sky."

Princess Huaiqing nodded her head, her voice was clear and beautiful, but the topic she asked was particularly embarrassing: "If you were a prince, what choice would you make?"

Xu Qi'an didn't answer.

The king of Zhenbei is simply a dead man. If he is alive, the princes will definitely try their best to bring him down.

But he is dead now, what threat does a dead person pose?In this way, the core motivation of the princes is reduced by half.

If it is true, as Cao Guogong said, the truth of the Chuzhou massacre can be reversed, and this matter can be turned from a scandal into a victory worthy of praise.

So why not?

Huaiqing said: "Father's next method is to promise benefits. Benefits are eternal above the court. If Father wants to change the ending, in addition to the above strategies, he has to make enough concessions. Your lords One would think, if they can really turn the scandal into a good thing, and there are benefits to be gained, then will they persist like this?"

Xu Qi'an's face became more and more gloomy.

"And once most people change their minds, Duke Wei and Wang Shoufu will be the ones facing the overwhelming trend. But they can't close the palace gates, and they can't stop the surging trend." With Huaiqing's cold smile, With a bit of sarcasm.

For a moment, Xu Qi'an couldn't tell whether she was mocking Emperor Yuan Jing, the princes, or Wei Yuan and Wang Shoufu.

Or both, or, she is also mocking herself.

"No, this matter is so big that it cannot be resolved by an announcement from the court. The rumors in the capital are in full swing. If you want to reverse the rumors, you must have sufficient reasons. He can block the mouths of the court officials, but he can't. Be the mouth of the world." Xu Qi'an shook his head.

"Father, he still has his back." Huai Qing sighed, "Although I don't know, I never underestimated him."

The two didn't speak any more, they were silent for a while, Huaiqing said in a low voice: "This matter has nothing to do with you, don't do anything stupid."

She doesn't think I can play any role in this matter, too, I am a small viscount, a small silver gong, and I can't even enter the Golden Palace, how can I fight against the king of a country?

I'm still very young in fighting, and Huaiqing also thinks I'm not good enough. Xu Qi'an grinned, showing an ugly smile.

However, I am the hero who killed Ji Li Zhigu.

Hit the more people's Yamen, Haoqi Building.

After lunch, Wei Yuan took a nap, and was woken up by the officials who came in.

"Wei Gong, Your Majesty sent someone to summon you into the palace." The officials bowed their heads.

Wei Yuan was silent for a few seconds, then said in a gentle voice, "Prepare the car."

Chapter 155 Going Home

Palace, Royal Garden.

In the gazebo with bright yellow curtains hanging down, there is an octagonal table made of huanghuali wood, sitting in a yellow robe and a green robe.

Wei Yuan and Emperor Yuan Jing were about the same age, one had a rosy complexion and black hair, the other had gray temples early on, and there were vicissitudes accumulated over the years in his eyes.

If men are compared to wine, Emperor Yuan Jing is the most glamorous and noble pot, but in terms of taste, Wei Yuan is the most mellow and fragrant.

The two are talking in hand.

Emperor Yuan Jing looked at Bai Zi who was taken away by Wei Yuan, and sighed:

"After King Huai's death, there will be no Optimus Prime in the northern border, and the barbarians will not be able to stir up trouble for a while, but if the Northeast Witch God Cult detours through the northern border and enters through Chuzhou, it will go straight to the capital, and the dragon slaying will come! "

While speaking, Emperor Yuan Jing dropped a piece, and amidst the crisp sound of the pieces hitting the chessboard, the situation suddenly turned to one side, and the white pieces formed a sharp sword, approaching the dragon.

"Tsk, Wei Qing is a little distracted playing chess today."

With gentle eyes, Wei Yuan picked up the sunspot and said, "Optimus Prime is too tall and too big to control, when it collapses, it will hurt others even more."

Floating down.

The two chatted and played chess at the same time. After four or five times, Yuan Jingdi said lightly:

"The prince was assassinated a few days ago, everyone in the harem was in danger, and the queen was also frightened. During this time, I couldn't eat well or sleep well, and everyone was haggard. Wei Qing, catch the assassin earlier and let this matter pass. The queen doesn't have to worry about it."
