I just like the Prime Minister

Whether it is a person or a family, if you have been in a high position for a long time, you will have an illusion that you are omnipotent. Once this illusion becomes a habit, you will feel that you can control everything, even if you cannot control things. Want to try to control.

And if a person is born in a poor family, and one day the villain will succeed, then his desire will be greater than that of the person who has been in the top position for a long time-he or the people around him have enjoyed the supreme taste of this world I have tried the bitterness of falling to the bottom, and I have tried my best to climb out of the quagmire, and I will never want to go back.

Such a person will always try his best to consolidate everything he has, and he will always think that everything should be under control, and all the characters should be left to him, but the reality is never like this.

If this person is smart enough, when he finds that some things are not so easy to control, he should honestly cover up his ambitions and minimize his sense of existence again, hoping that those who have been deceived by his rumors will be wary. to the minimum.

But obviously, this person is not smart enough.

If he is smarter, Li Chengzuo will forget the long past together; or if he is more stupid, Li Chengzuo will be able to eradicate the grass and roots in a grandiose manner.However, he had to be so half-smart and not stupid, so that he was in such a troublesome situation today.

Memories of childhood are the most honest.

Li Chengzuo remembered the queen's categorical rejection, so she is still the mother of the world, living in the harem safely; Cousin, there are still no waves.

Now, the old Qin Guogong, that is, Li Chengzuo's grandfather, is long gone. The head of the Guogong Mansion is the eldest son of the old Qin Guogong and the eldest son of the Ji family. His name is Qin Mingxiu.

Compared to this "cousin" who is related without any reason, Qin Mingxiu is the real uncle of the current emperor.This person was clever since he was a child, and he was quite favored by the late emperor, and he thought about using him as the prince's arm, but for some reason, he gave up this idea, and finally supported the Fengcheng Marquis family.

From then on, the Qin clan didn't know whether it was because of the queen's instruction, or because they were keenly aware of the change in the late emperor's attitude. They kept a low profile for more than ten years, so low-key that they were hardly worthy of a noble family with two queens, and Qin Mingxiu himself was even more He was not in the capital all the year round, and first he used the excuse of being filial piety for the old Qin Guogong and refused to let the court take a real job. When the filial piety period expired, and the Ji family happened to pass away, this person took another filial piety very filially.

As early as when Li Chengzuo came to the throne, someone had persuaded him intentionally or unintentionally, bluntly saying that the Fengcheng Hou family was not related to each other, and that the fact that the Lin family had an affair with the King of Qi was a fact known to both the government and the opposition. If the people grow bigger, it is better to reactivate the Qin family.

This lobbyist used to be Li Chengzuo's teacher in the true sense. Although he is not as sure as the Taifu, he is also well-known and well-known. In addition, his words are justified and sincere. Li Chengzuo has no way of judging whether this person is related to the Qin family. He had conspired, but he was still a real countryman who was only thinking about his throne, so he didn't refute these remarks, but he didn't accept them either.

After Li Chengzuo came to the throne, on the one hand, he stabilized the Lin family, and on the other hand, he enabled and stabilized the Marquis of Fengcheng. On the surface, he only acted like a foolish emperor, and many courtiers complained about him in their hearts. Discussing the king is a serious crime, and he can only hold it back by coincidence. Li Chengzuo was worried that they would make something wrong.

However, Qin Mingxiu at this moment is like a lotus in clear water in the muddy court situation. Once his filial piety period expired, he wrote a letter to Li Chengzuo, expressing that he lost his parents one after another. , I just want to imitate the predecessors to express their love for mountains and rivers, go to famous mountains and rivers everywhere, recite poems and write conversations to soothe their hearts.

The statement was very sad and profound, and Li Chengzuo specially presented the eloquent memorial to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was frightened and thought that this man was going to become a Taoist priest or a monk. After a while, I first said to think about it, and then told Li Chengzuo the next day, yes.

So Qin Mingxiu went there for a few years, except when he went back to Beijing to visit the Queen Mother during the New Year's Eve, it was rare to see anyone in the Duke's mansion throughout the year.

He has received a lot of favors from the Empress Dowager, and there is no way to repay him for the kindness of nurturing.

But the queen mother is the queen mother, and the Qin family is the Qin family, he can tell the difference.

Li Chengzuo glanced around the cage-like prison, and looked back at Ji Weizhen, who is now an unknown person. He unexpectedly found that he still remembered many past events that had faded with time, even in the shadow of this "blood prison". Under the horror, he was still able to clear up the cause and effect with a clear mind.

Everyone else in the room felt more or less anxious, and even the prime minister, who had always been calm, showed a slightly unattractive expression at this moment. Looking for how to get out, but no one thinks about why they came in.

This is probably the purpose of the people who arranged the "blood prison" - to let them kill each other and mess themselves up.

Li Chengzuo has always had a vague guess: he feels that, with King Qi's suspicious and arrogant character, even if he wants to use the power of the "choir" who is obviously not a righteous person, he will never let the "choir" There's something special under his nose.

There have been quite a few horror legends about "Blood Prison", Yeluzhen's example can only illustrate one or two, and more rumors in the world are probably a hundred times more terrifying than what Yeluzhen said.

Does King Qi know these legends?

But if you don’t know, who gave the “choir” the right to persuade King Qi, whose heart is as good as the sky, to set up such a bloody purgatory in the mansion of King Qi who oversteps the rules everywhere but only obeys King Qi’s orders? ?

If he knew, with his suspicious character, wouldn't he be afraid that the "choir" would join forces with him this time and use this ready-made cage on himself next time?

Unless he knows what this "blood prison" means.

The "choir" was born in the Jianghu, but it is not the righteous way of the Jianghu. It is a thing that takes money to do things together.Therefore, the constraints of Jianghu morality and so on are just nonsense in their eyes, but the principle of "only selling art and not selling oneself" is implemented much better than many brothels and Chu houses-"blood prison" is its secret technique, and they will really keep this secret Do you want to tell King Qi the whole story in exchange for the trust of a temporary partner?

Li Chengzuo thinks it is impossible.

If you think about it from another angle, if King Qi didn't know the existence of the "Blood Prison" at all, but someone secretly set it up without him knowing, and only told him that the prison is absolutely safe, then this matter would be much more understandable .

It's like King Qi picked up a wolf, but was encouraged by others to keep it as a dog, until the beast showed its power and killed him and then killed some people involved with it, he would suddenly realize that he had raised it by himself What a horrible thing.

The only problem is that the person spared no expense to order the "choir" to plant this bloodthirsty beast. Is he simply trying to devour King Qi, or is he just trying to take advantage of King Qi's "moment of confusion" to attract some "irrelevant" people? What about being buried together?

Li Chengzuo's eyes were as cold as ice, he was silent for a moment, then sneered abruptly: "It's like a snipe and a clam fighting."

Everyone fell into a mysterious panic in the room, and when they heard his voice suddenly, they froze on the spot for a while, completely unaware of how he would say such a sentence at such an extraordinary moment.

Jiang Xizhu was stunned for a moment, his thoughts turned, and he briefly forgot about the dangerous predicament in front of him, but fell into another predicament in great surprise—he seemed to understand what Li Chengzuo was talking about, but he couldn't find any words to comfort Li Chengzuo for a while , or to explain the dilemma to others.

Li Chengzuo and Jiang Xizhu looked at each other.

There was an uncontrollable bloody light in his eyes, making it impossible to distinguish whether it was the flickering candle in this dark space, or Li Chengzuo's irresolvable demon attack.The emperor, who was always lazy and full of smiles, had never shown such a trembling look in his eyes—it was an invincible respect that would only be revealed after seeing the unimaginable shadows of ordinary people.

This moment seemed to further confirm Jiang Xizhu's conjecture, and it was also this moment that he made a non-difficult choice between the two dilemmas.

"Anger can't solve any problems." Jiang Xizhu's originally helpless panic was quietly hidden in his smile, and he looked at Li Chengzuo with such a shallow smile, "Your Majesty, go to the army and plan, don't let others take the The method of plotting an attack is well used."

Jiang Xizhu's smile has a unique soothing power to Li Chengzuo.

It turned out that Jiang Xizhu was just a student in the court who knew the rise and fall of the world. The knowledge of these days made him a little calmer. It was an experience that could not be read only from the memorials. If you don’t see the world with your own eyes, you will always be trapped in a corner , but not anymore.

Li Chengzuo obviously calmed down in his smile, the blood in his eyes gradually faded, and became the peach blossom eyes reflecting the fire again, even with a bit of casual laziness.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Xizhu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his face was not showing, and he walked up to Li Chengzuo in a few steps: "Anyway, it's important to get out first."

This sentence has reached the hearts of others.

Daoist Zixu saw that Li Chengzuo's expression was wrong from just now, he knew how this rebel was a dog who turned his face and refused to recognize others, and was afraid that if he disagreed with him, he would chop off two unpleasant ones to vent his anger. The son can also be coaxed into a donkey, which is really reliable, and he was relieved immediately. He glanced at Jiang Xizhu like his benefactor, and agreed: "Yes, yes, this ghost place...go out first anyway."

"Okay." Li Chengzuo glanced at Taoist Master Zixu with a half-smile, "Master is so eager, but he has a way to try it? You are always so willing to take the lead... Tsk, my apprentice can definitely help you."

He glanced at the tunnel where thousands of arrows pierced his heart, and raised his chin: "Master, please."

Taoist Master Zixu: "..."

Don't talk too much, old man!Thousands of clothes, ten thousand clothes, flattery but not clothes!Why can't I remember it!

Taoist Master Zixu felt that his mouth, which had been opened by a crow, was almost fatal, and he would attract blackmail when he opened his mouth. What's more terrible, this situation seemed familiar—he seemed to have returned to the time when he was beaten by that broken phoenix. Among the terrors dominated by birds.
