When North King Wei Changhui and Wing King Shi Dakai sat down in the main hall of the King's Residence, North King Wei Changhui impatiently began explaining his future policies to Shi Dakai.

When Shi Dakai was serving under Yang Xiuqing, he had experienced many days of fear and trepidation. At that time, Yang Xiuqing had really played the "Descent of Heaven" trick and killed Shi Dakai. Thus, Shi Dakai had developed a lot of patience. With this patience, Shi Dakai was able to start listening to Wei Changhui's future policies. Although Shi Dakai would never support Wei Changhui as the Left Assistant Military Advisor, he still felt that it was best to find out more about Wei Changhui.

The more Shi Dakai listened to Wei Changhui's policies, the more apprehensive he became. If the East Monarch, Yang Xiuqing, was said to be a master at manipulating politics, then when Yang Xiuqing was playing politics, she was at least focusing on getting things done. At the very least, every time he played politics, he would accomplish something. But Wei Changhui's policies were very simple. They could be summarized in four words: "Eliminate dissidents!"

Shi Dakai could clearly feel that Wei Changhui did not feel safe just because he was killing people in Tianjing City. On the contrary, North King Wei Changhui wanted to purge all the armies in Tianping. Anyone who opposed Wei Changhui would be considered to be part of the King Of The East's faction, and would be eliminated one by one in the future.

This kind of suggestion was already a little shocking. When Wei Changhui requested to gather troops in Tianjing City and use the army to completely eliminate the traitor Vézé, Shi Dakai could not bear to listen anymore. He first coughed, as if he wanted to say something. However, Wei Changhui didn't seem to notice it at all and continued talking. He had been talking for a while. The three Prime Ministers of Huainan and the general in charge of Yangzhou had already finished talking. By now, Wei Changhui's target had already left Tianjing City and was heading straight for the Western Expedition.

Shi Dakai had thought that Wei Changhui was pretending, but when he looked closely, he saw that Wei Changhui's face was glowing and his eyes were a little unfocused. It seemed that Wei Changhui was more immersed in the world of his own imagination than he was pretending.

The Western Expedition Army was Shi Dakai's trusted aide. After hearing Wei Changhui's explanation, Shi Dakai couldn't hold it in any longer. He grabbed Wei Changhui's arm and shook it, shouting, "North King!"

"Huh?" Wei Changhui had spent a lot of effort to come up with a plan to eradicate the dissidents in Heavenly State. What he needed the most right now was Shi Dakai's support. Seeing that Shi Dakai had interrupted him, he thought that Shi Dakai had mistakenly thought that Wei Changhui was going to attack the Western Expedition Army. He continued, "Brother Shi, the Western Expedition Army is under your command. I trust you."

Although Shi Dakai was feeling down, it took him a lot of effort not to laugh out loud when he saw Wei Changhui's sincere big brother attitude. What was it that made Wei Changhui not understand the danger of the situation?

Moreover, Wei Changhui had already made preparations to deal with the "dissidents." Logically speaking, he should know that his actions were unpopular. Wei Changhui wanted to mobilize a large force to eliminate Vézé, which meant that Wei Changhui knew that his troops in Tianjing City were not enough to fight against Vézé.

Shi Dakai felt that others would definitely feel uneasy when faced with such a situation. In any case, if Shi Dakai was in a situation where he had not even subdued the troops in Tianjing City, he would definitely feel uneasy. But what was with Wei Changhui's bright and radiant expression and his full confidence in his plan?

In order to understand this matter, Shi Dakai probed, "North King, you killed the King Of The East, which is a great achievement. It's not easy to deal with rebellious matters. "

The corners of Wei Changhui's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a confident expression.

Seeing this, Shi Dakai continued to probe, "North King, with so many people killed in Tianjing City, how do you think the Heavenly King will issue an edict?"

"The Heavenly King has already issued an edict in Tianjing City, telling the soldiers and civilians that Yang Xiuqing rebelled and has been killed by me, Wei Changhui," Wei Changhui answered confidently.

"Then why didn't the Heavenly King say that he was the one who ordered you to kill the King Of The East?" Shi Dakai asked slowly.

Hearing such a sharp question, Wei Changhui's bright expression darkened slightly. However, this shadow quickly dissipated. Wei Changhui smiled and said, "It's all the Heavenly King's edict. What difference does it make?"

Shi Dakai did not continue to pursue this topic. He changed the topic and said, "North King, Vézé has sent letters everywhere saying that he is preparing to leave Heavenly State. I wonder, after Vézé leaves, who are you going to arrange to guard the east? "

"This …" Wei Changhui was stumped by this question.

Shi Dakai continued to ask, "North King, I believe you have already sent letters to the brothers in Heavenly State. I wonder if they have replied to you?"

After asking this question, Shi Dakai saw that Wei Changhui's expression had darkened greatly. With a trace of pity in his heart, Shi Dakai continued to ask, "North King, have you sent letters to the other brothers in Heavenly State? Or has the Heavenly King sent an edict to the brothers outside? "

Hearing this, Wei Changhui was no longer as bright as before. With a face full of impatience, he shouted, "Brother Shi, are you going to send a memorial to the Heavenly King and ask him to make me the Left Assistant Military Advisor?"

Shi Dakai sighed and said in a sincere tone of pity, "Big Brother Wei, even if you were the Heavenly King now, if the brothers in Heavenly State don't care about you at all, what use do you think being the Left Assistant Military Advisor is?"

"What use?" Wei Changhui said angrily. "I am the Left Assistant Military Advisor. They have to listen to my orders. If you don't listen, you'll be rebelling! "
