Who was Wu Sansi's greatest enemy?
Zhou Yong, Ran Zuyong and the others were all Wu Sansi's trusted aides. How could they not understand? Hearing Wu Sansi's words, the five of them were shocked. Yao Shaozhi cried out, "Wei Wang? Wei Wang is both a prince and a prime minister. He has always been the head of the officials and the head of the Wu Clan. His influence in the court is like the sun in the sky. Frankly speaking, even a prince is at a disadvantage. Now … does Your Highness already have a way to deal with him? "
Wu Sansi smiled and showed them the confession in his hand. He said, "Take it and have a look!"
Zhou Yong quickly stepped forward and took the confession from Wu Sansi's hand. The other four could not wait any longer. They all gathered in front of him and carefully read through Ye An's account of how he escaped from Lou Shide's camp. After reading it, Zhou Yong asked with a blank face, "Your Highness, this seems to be the account of a Turkic spy's escape from Longyou's camp?"
Wu Sansi said proudly, "That's right!"
Minister Song Zhixun asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with this? What does it have to do with Wei Wang? "
Censor Yao Shaozhi pondered for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed, "Eh?" He said, "General Qiu Shenji and Lou Shide have both petitioned the imperial court to punish spies in the main camp of the Heyuan Army, and they have also stolen the secrets of the border. I have the responsibility of supervising the officials. I have seen their official letters and there seems to be some discrepancies with this confession … "
Wu Sansi sneered, "It's not just discrepancies, it's very discrepancies!" Wu Sansi narrated in detail what Qiu Shenji and Lou Shide had reported. Minister of Household Affairs Song Zhixun immediately said: "Someone is lying!"
Wu Sansi looked at him and said, "In your opinion, who is lying?"
Song Zhixun said, "Of course Qiu Shenji is lying. Is there a need for this Ye An to lie?"
Wu Sansi said, "That's right! However, there were clearly only two people guarding the entrance of the tent. How did it turn into four? Why were there four corpses on the ground by the time Lou Shide heard the news and arrived before Ye An and his brother could kill them? Ye An and the other two are just ordinary spies. If someone had really infiltrated Lou Shide's central army, it would be easy for them to assassinate the general or steal the military secrets. Why would they go through so much trouble to save the two of them? "
When the lackeys heard Wu Sansi's question, their eyes lit up.
Wu Sansi said proudly, "What do you think the Emperor will say when this Prince's statement is presented to him?"
Zhou Tong said excitedly, "His Majesty will definitely not let him off easily!"
Ran Zuyong and Song Zhixun rubbed their palms together excitedly and said, "That's right! This time, we can finally bring him down! "
The supervising monster trainer, Yao Shaozhi, was in charge of handling cases in the Penal Courts, so he knew more about these matters than they did. He thought for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Wait! Everyone, please wait. Only Qiu Shenji is involved in this matter. What if Wei Wang abandons his pawn to protect the general? How can we drag him down with us? "
Wu Sansi said, "Everyone in the court knows that Qiu Shenji is Wu Chengsi's disciple. Without his approval, would Qiu Shenji dare to cause such a big mess in Longyou? If Longyou is really in chaos, would Qiu Shenji have the confidence to take command of the Western Region's troops? It is obvious that this matter was planned by Wu Chengsi! "
Yao Shaozhi said, "Your Highness, the crux of the matter is not this, but … the fact that Wei Wang is favored by the Emperor!"
Wu Sansi's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice, "What do you mean? Are you going to let go of such a good opportunity? "
Yao Shaozhi smiled sinisterly and said, "How can we let go of such a good opportunity? What I mean is that Wei Wang is favored by the Emperor. I'm afraid that if he quibbles, the Emperor will help him. In that case, Qiu Shenji's matter will not be related to him. We have to make him sink deeper and deeper, and it will be difficult for him to escape! Especially when he loses the Emperor's favor, then we can succeed! "
"Hmm …"
In the end, Wu Sansi was not an impulsive and unwise person. With Yao Shaozhi's reminder, his fervent desire to overthrow Wu Chengsi gradually cooled down. Thinking about it carefully, if he acted rashly, with Wu Chengsi's current level of favor, the Emperor would indeed be merciful and let him go.
Wu Sansi calmed down and cupped his hands in thanks, "Thanks for Shaozhi's reminder, I was rash. Then, in your opinion, what should I do?"
Yao Shaozhi said, "Your Highness, Wei Wang only wants to do two things now. One is to seize the military power, and the other is to seize the Emperor's heir. The purpose of seizing the military power is also for the Emperor's heir. Now, not only did the matter in the Western Region not go as he wished, but Lou Shide also took advantage of it. Not only did he retreat a hundred thousand enemies, he also won a great victory at Juyan Sea, killing over twenty thousand enemies.
The Prime Ministers would not let go of such a good opportunity. They would definitely seize the opportunity to seize control of the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Western Region. The King of Wei was frustrated here, so he would definitely be even more eager to fight for the position of Crown Prince. Your Highness, why not show him weakness and let him fight for the Crown Prince's position without any scruples! "
At this point, Song Zhixun was enlightened and clapped, "Brilliant! This' Kill by Flattery 'can kill without spilling blood. It is indeed a brilliant plan. "
Wu Sansi still did not understand the crux of it and quickly asked, "What's so brilliant about it?"
Song Zhixun laughed sinisterly, "If the King of Wei were to seize the military power first and then plant more henchmen, the position of Crown Prince would naturally belong to him when his forces are fully established. But if he were to set his sights on the position of Crown Prince now, what would that mean? His Majesty is old, but he does not concede to his old age! Will His Majesty be happy? "
Wu Sansi hesitated, "What if it turns out to be true?"
At this point, Zhou Yong also understood the crux of it and quickly said, "Your Highness, this makes sense. If we don't stop him, will no one care? Those few Chancellors don't like anyone from our Wu family. If Wei Wang is willing to jump out, then let them fight it out. We can sit on the mountain and reap the spoils later.
If Wei Wang really defeats the Chancellors and becomes the Crown Prince, then it won't be too late for us to make a move. As long as this witness is handed over, the worst outcome would be to hand over the evidence now. If we succeed, we can make him unable to recover and never have a chance to rise again! "
Wu Sansi pondered for a moment and laughed coldly, "After today's banquet, Wu Chengsi specially asked me to stay behind and beat me up, hinting that he wants to fight for the Crown Prince's position and asked me not to be a burden to him. It's obvious that he considers himself the Wu family head. Hearing what you said, it seems that I really have to give way to him! "
Ran Zuyong hurriedly said, "When a vulgar bird is about to strike, it will fly and fold its wings. When a ferocious beast is about to fight, it will bow down. Wei Wang has ascended high and is facing the abyss. So what if we allow him to be arrogant for a while? "
Wu Sansi laughed heartily, "Well said! Then I will allow him to be arrogant for a while! Hahahaha … "
…
Tin Aino's body was twisted strangely as he leaned against the cliff. It was hard to tell if he looked like a ferocious beast or a vulgar bird. However, it was true that he was facing the abyss.
When Tin Aino committed suicide by jumping off the cliff from the peak of Mount Hua, he did have the intention to die.
She was not a girl who would surrender easily, but she knew very well how much power her young master had. If her young master wanted Yang Fan to die, then Yang Fan would definitely not be able to live. Using one person's martial prowess to fight against an aristocratic family that could overturn the world, that was only a fantasy in legends.
So, when her young master said that only one of them could live, she almost immediately accepted this result. In fact, she could not wait to accept this result because she was worried that her young master would change his mind again. She knew that her young master had made a solemn promise. Since he had personally raised this condition, as long as she fulfilled her promise, no matter how unwilling he was, he would not go back on his words.
The cliff was steep, and the wind was extremely strong. The Tian Ai Nu was like a paper kite with a broken string, tumbling down the cliff. Her body hit the protruding rock wall a few times, and her body was covered with cuts and bruises. She thought that she would soon be smashed into pieces, but her loosened clothes accidentally caught onto a pine tree that grew on the steep rock wall.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she had already left her young master's sight. No one would think that falling from such a high place would still be able to survive. Even if she escaped now, as long as she did not expose her tracks, her young master would still think that she had fallen into pieces and would still keep his promise. Then, she might still have a chance to be with Erlang.
The good quality clothes only supported her for a moment. Although the time was short, it was enough to rouse her will to live. This thought flashed through her mind like a spark. Her hand unconsciously moved and the flying claws hidden in her sleeves shot out like a spirit snake. The moment her clothes broke, they wrapped around that old pine tree.
However, after she had the will to live, she found that in this position, it was not hard to die, but it was as hard as ascending to heaven to live. At this moment, her body was hanging between the precipice, hanging alone on an old pine tree. She could not go up to the sky, nor could she go down to the ground. The top of the rock was far away in the clouds, and the ground below was also in the clouds. Her body was in midair and it was really difficult to go up or down.
But she had to do something. If she stayed here, no one would come to save her. She would only starve to death here. That was even more terrifying than falling to death.
As she tumbled down, her body was constantly slapped against the cliff by the strong mountain wind, scraping against the protruding rocks. Her body was already riddled with injuries. Especially the right side of her thigh was cut by a sharp mountain rock. The wound was so deep that the bone could be seen and blood flowed out. If it was not bandaged in time, before she starved to death, she would die from blood loss.
A Nu climbed up the pine tree and tore off her tattered clothes to tightly wrap around her wound. Then she immediately began her escape. Because the longer it dragged on, the more energy she used up.
That year, she was pushed into the well by her biological father. That was the darkest and most terrifying moment of her life. Although she managed to climb out in the end, when she was climbing out, she thought that with her frail body and weak arms, there was no chance of getting out. At that time, the only thing that supported her was her exuberant will to live.
Today, she jumped off the cliff without hesitation, abandoning her life to seek death. It was for the person she loved the most in her heart. Now, in this desperate situation, it was still for love, for him, because she could not bear to part! In order not to be separated, even if she was in a precipice with no path to heaven and no door to the earth, she would still forcefully walk out!
