Xu Weizhi's eyes lit up as he said, "This old man understands Wang Ye's intentions. This time, the one who will die will not be the Yuchi Yan, but Yuchi Xujie. "
"That's right. Yuchi Xujie will definitely help the Yuchi Yan. As long as the Yuchi Yan and Gu Shixiong know that you contacted Yuchi Xujie in private, they will definitely act like petty people and strike first to gain the upper hand. They will definitely not accept Yuchi Xujie's kindness.
"Think about it. When the time comes, what will the Yuchi Yan become in the eyes of the people of Southern Yan? Ungrateful, betraying the old country, becoming the ruler of a fallen country, surrendering to Da Zhou, and even assisting Da Zhou in killing Yuchi Xujie. Killing Yuchi Xujie is one thing, but if he is willing to become the emperor himself, it can be considered as usurping the throne. "
"But Wang Ye will not allow him to sit on that throne," Xu Weizhi said with bright eyes.
Pang Xiao nodded with a smile. "Yes, I will drive him out immediately after he makes his move. At that time, the only person he can seek help and protection from will be His Majesty. At that time, all the people of Southern Yan will think that he has completely surrendered to His Majesty, which is why he killed Yuchi Xujie for His Majesty. "
"Wonderful, wonderful! In this way, Wang Ye can completely integrate the old capital with the leaderless Southern Yan. " Xu Weizhi clapped his hands. "Since Wang Ye has this plan, he can't have thought of it all at once. Wang Ye must have planned this for a long time. Why didn't he say it earlier?"
Pang Xiao's eyes were pitch-black, like a bottomless cold lake.
Why?
Of course, it was because he was too stupid!
For the sake of the country, for the sake of the people's safety, he would rather endure Li Qitian's deliberately making things difficult for him and think of ways to avoid him. He only wanted to protect himself.
But what did he get in return for his concession?
Li Qitian actually wanted to kill his Sister Yi again. He didn't care at all about how much merit Qin Yining's Qingtian Alliance had achieved during the seizing of the palace.
His silence made everyone present speechless for a moment.
Others might not know, but Xu Weizhi, who had been by Pang Xiao's side for many years, knew very well that Pang Xiao valued friendship the most. Not only the love between a man and a woman, but also the brotherly love between him, Li Qitian and Ji Zeyu.
If Pang Xiao really had the intention to rebel as Li Qitian suspected, then from the very beginning, Li Qitian would not have had the chance to ascend to that position. This was because Pang Xiao, who held military power and was the Tiger Army's trusted and worshiped Commander-in-Chief, had countless ways to seize power for himself. Moreover, he had done so legitimately.
But he did it for the sake of the common people, and also to maintain the friendship between brothers. That was why he had done whatever Li Qitian told him to do and had been the scapegoat for so long.
Thinking of this, Xu Weizhi almost burst into tears.
Pang Xiao, however, was thinking about his own plan: "Mr. Xu, can you see if there are any flaws in my plan? To be honest, I need to have enough bargaining chips in my hands to make His Majesty not dare to make a move. Otherwise, Sister Yi's life will not be guaranteed. "
Xu Weizhi thought for a moment, then asked: "Wang Ye, what happened in the capital?"
Without waiting for Pang Xiao to answer, Xu Weizhi said: "But Wang Ye was able to make arrangements early, so it can be considered not too late."
Qiu Feishan saw this and said: "Actually, the matter is still very urgent. Your Majesty invited Princess Yi into the palace, and … … "
Qiu Feishan told Xu Weizhi the news she received and the message from Qin Huaiyuan.
The more Xu Weizhi heard, the uglier his face became, and his fingers trembled.
"This situation … … is not good." Xu Weizhi glanced at Pang Xiao. Seeing that Pang Xiao's face was still calm, he said: "Your Majesty made it clear that he wants to test Wang Ye. Your Majesty knows that Wang Ye is the person who can defy 33 imperial edicts for Princess Yi. Moreover, Your Majesty may not be unaware of the fact that Wang Ye led troops to Jianchuan City.
"If Your Majesty makes a move on Princess Yi, it's fine if Wang Ye doesn't do anything. But if he does, then the hat of rebellion can't be taken off! Duke Dingguo is now idle. His Majesty will definitely send Duke Dingguo to cause trouble! "
"Exactly. So I can't sit still and wait for death. I can't watch Sister Yi become a sacrifice. Mr. Xu, please be sure to set off as soon as possible! "
"Wang Ye has made up his mind?" Xu Weizhi looked at Pang Xiao seriously and said slowly: "Wang Ye, do you understand what this action means? If things go as you plan, once the Yuchi Yan kill Yuchi Xujie, the Southern Yan will have no leader. Then you will have to integrate these forces.
"This is the first time you are going against the imperial court to strengthen your strength. Once you start this, you won't be able to turn back. "
"It doesn't matter." Pang Xiao smiled softly. "I admit that I don't want to do this now. If there is no Sister Yi in this world, then what do I want to do with this world? Why do I want to seek peace and prosperity? Who do I fight for? Who do I work hard for? "
"Wang Ye, you …" Xu Weizhi's lips trembled.
Only then did he realize that Pang Xiao, who had been as calm as before since they met today, had completely collapsed.
He wanted to persuade him.
But when he thought of the time when Qin Yining was searching for treasures in the old capital, he encountered an earthquake. Pang Xiao led people to dig the collapsed tunnel day and night, repeatedly defying the imperial edict. Not only did he dig until his hands were full of bloody blisters, he even used his hands to dig the earth. In the end, he still couldn't find Qin Yining.
At that time, Pang Xiao was simply like a madman.
When Xu Weizhi thought of Pang Xiao like that, he tactfully swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He couldn't persuade him.
In Wang Ye's heart, Qin Yining was probably more important than the entire country. Even Wang Ye's two sons added together weren't as important as Qin Yining.
"Okay, this old man will go immediately!" Xu Weizhi readily agreed and didn't try to persuade him anymore.
In any case, when he followed Pang Xiao, it was because he knew that Pang Xiao was a sensible person. Since Pang Xiao had made a decision, he now only cared about helping Pang Xiao do things well.
Xu Weizhi quickly walked away. Pang Xiao let Huzi arrange for people to escort Xu Weizhi, and quickly rushed to Southern Yan.
Mu Jinghu and Qiu Feishan silently watched Pang Xiao quickly make a decision. For a moment, they were speechless.
Qiu Feishan was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "I'm afraid that all the women in the world will envy Princess."
Pang Xiao turned to look at Qiu Feishan.
Qiu Feishan continued: "Wang Ye's love for Princess is enviable."
Mu Jinghu pursed his lips, pulled Qiu Feishan's hand and shook it: "Shanshan, I also treat you wholeheartedly, and I also put you first."
Qiu Feishan saw that Mu Jinghu was so childish, and couldn't help but laugh.
"I know." She patted Mu Jinghu's hand, but didn't say anything that would spoil the mood.
Because she knew that Mu Jinghu was a blockhead. He promised grandmaster that he would protect Shibo, and he would definitely put Tian Jizi first. If there really came a day when she and Tian Jizi stood on opposite sides, Mu Jinghu would definitely keep his promise to protect Tian Jizi first.
