One touch and one silence

About an hour later, six aides came to the secret room of Prince Zhennan.

Prince Zhennan told the news that the Queen Mother brought him yesterday.

The staff members were immediately frightened.

"Your Majesty, if this is true, I'm afraid we can't delay it!"

"It's better to do it sooner rather than later, Your Majesty!"

"I agree too!"

"Is this serious?"

Prince Zhennan looked at their reactions and told them that the Queen Mother had suddenly fallen ill the day before.

"The night before yesterday, the Queen Mother suddenly fell ill. Nanny said that she was so angry that she was angry. I'm afraid she found something in the palace, otherwise she wouldn't have asked me to start the rebellion so quickly."

"But once this rebellion starts, it will be neither justified nor justified. I am afraid of the pen in the hand of the historian!"

Prince Zhennan frowned, feeling angry.

If it wasn't for the sake of justification, he would have started a rebellion eight years ago. He doesn't want to be infamous for all eternity.

It's just that his royal brother is too popular among the people, which is why he has never dared to act rashly.

"Is the prince afraid of the people?"

Prince Zhennan glanced at him and said nothing. Isn't this nonsense?

"In fact, Your Majesty, there is no need to be so afraid. We have a lot of money in our hands. When the time comes, we just need to take out some and buy people's hearts. I think there will be no problem."

"I think what Mr. Lu said is right. The people don't care who the emperor is. What they care about is who feeds them and who gives them a stable life."

"The human heart is the most difficult thing in this world to understand. People are selfish. I think this is feasible."

Prince Zhennan did not speak, but his eyes were looking at Mr. Xie who had been sitting there.

"What do you think, Mr. Xie?"

The old man named Mr. Xie had his entire face hidden in the dark, making it impossible to see his face clearly.

"Since the prince asked, then I will say that what Mr. Lu said is feasible in the short term, but what about the long term?"

"Wouldn't it be fine if they just recognized it within a short period of time? Once the prince has secured the throne, is there anything that can't be solved?"

Lu Niansheng directly refuted Mr. Xie's words. It was the first time they met this gentleman and they didn't know who he was, and his face was covered.

Seeing that the prince was so fond of him, they felt a little uncomfortable.

There is another one who is not here at the moment, otherwise there would be no need for this person.

A smile appeared on Mr. Xie's lips. He didn't say anything and sat down.

"Mr. Xie means that if I don't do as well as the current emperor in the future, I'm afraid the people will not approve of me?"

Prince Zhennan's face was extremely solemn.

"Your Highness only said half of it. Since Your Highness can start a rebellion, how can Your Highness be sure that no one will rebel against you then?"

"I believe you are all familiar with history books, right? There are many records in history books. It's not that I, Mr. Xie, think that the Prince of Zhennan is not as good as the current emperor, but the human heart is unpredictable. We can't make this move too hastily, otherwise..."

The rest of Mr. Xie’s words were self-explanatory and everyone understood them instantly.

In this case of changing emperors, there are many cases of people rising up in rebellion because the successor emperor is not as good as the previous one and for some other reason.

There's no need to find excuses.

"But, I do have a plan!"

Mr. Xie's eyes are full of wisdom, which makes people believe in him.

"Your Highness can push someone out to rebel openly. After the rebellion is over, Your Highness only needs to purge the emperor's entourage!"

Prince Zhennan's eyes lit up.

Yes! Why didn't he think of it?

"I think what this gentleman said makes sense!"

"I think it's feasible!"

The Prince of Zhennan was very satisfied when he saw that all his staff members agreed with this matter.

This way, I have a legitimate reason to be a teacher, and I don't need to be criticized by historians or scolded by the people. I can still justify myself.

Kill several birds with one stone!

"Mr. Xie's method is still the best! This really gave me an epiphany!"

Prince Zhennan had a look of surprise on his face and was much more respectful to this man.

"Your Highness, you don't have to be polite. Since I have promised others, I will naturally help you get to that position."

Mr. Xie's words immediately extinguished the anger of the other five aides.

They naturally know what is important and what is not.

"But who should we push out now?" This is also a big problem.

This person must be loyal enough to you and not betray you.

"The Prince of Zhennan can ask General Lin at the border to start an uprising. I heard that his sister is your concubine? The son born to the prince and Concubine Lin died in the hands of Your Majesty. I'm sure there is no one more suitable than General Lin."

"What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Prince Zhennan narrowed his eyes and rubbed his back with one hand.

Those who were familiar with the Prince of Zhennan knew that he had the intention to kill.

"How did Mr. Xie know that?"

Prince Zhennan looked at the old man in front of him with a fake smile. He had underestimated this man.

If this person had not been recommended to him by someone he trusted extremely, he would not have invited this person here.

There was no fear in Mr. Xie's eyes. Instead, he stared at the expression on Prince Zhennan's face. He felt the murderous aura from the prince, but didn't care at all.

"Your Highness, are you blaming me for knowing too much? I must know whether the person I assist is a bug or a dragon, and whether it is worth it for me to pay such a huge price."

Prince Zhennan understood. No wonder this man asked for three days to consider. It turned out that he was going to investigate him.

He was able to investigate everything that happened at the border in just three days. I'm afraid this person's ability should not be underestimated.

After the matter is accomplished, this person may not be able to stay, otherwise he will probably have sleepless nights.

Prince Zhennan clenched his hands behind his back, then loosened them, and clenched them again, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

After a while, he slowly spoke.

"Mr. Xie is right. If I were the king, I would probably do the same thing as you."

"This matter needs to be considered by the king."

After the Prince of Zhennan finished speaking, he left the secret room, leaving the staff looking at each other in bewilderment.

Only Mr. Xie didn't care at all. He stood up and left the secret room directly.

By the time he returned to his residence, the back of his clothes was soaked with sweat.

He spent a lot of effort this month to get someone to recommend him to work as a staff member in the Zhennan Palace District.

After meeting him today, I found that the Prince of Zhennan is indeed a remarkable person. If it weren't for the example of Your Majesty, he would have been a real tyrant.

He also realized that the Prince of Zhennan was not someone who would share wealth and honor with others, and he didn't know how his old friend was doing.

He had already done what he said. He knew that Prince Zhennan had been tempted. Nothing could be more perfect than this plan to make him give it a try.

I hope he can seize the opportunity and return victoriously.

I wonder if they will ever have the chance to drink together again.

What he didn't know was that after he left, the Prince of Zhennan and his other staff discussed for a long time until late at night.

Prince Zhennan was in his study, thinking about the suggestion that Mr. Xie had recently made. It would be a lie to say that he was not tempted.

But this person seemed to know him very well, which was scary.

How could an old man in a family with poor financial situation have such a wise person and end up like this?

Is it really just offending people?

He looked at the man's reaction. He knew when to advance and when to retreat, and did things neither hurriedly nor slowly. He had only seen this kind of behavior in the prime minister.
