Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 284 I Understand I Know Better Than You

The next day, a piece of news shocked the ruling and opposition parties.

Liu Wen used witchcraft to murder the King of Qin. He has been found out and sent to prison, and even Liu Wenjing, the prime minister, was also sent to prison.

Soon, all the officials knew the cause and effect.

The superficial cause and effect, some people think it is true, some people scoff at it.At the very least, the prince felt that Liu Wenqi was framed.

But the problem now is that there are all witnesses and material evidence.Moreover, that concubine is still under the control of Pei Ji and King Qin.More importantly, the person who investigated the case was Pei Ji.

The prince now feels like he has no way to attack the hedgehog.

"The only breakthrough in this case is that concubine." Zheng Shanguo said to Li Jiancheng: "As long as this concubine can change her words, everything can be redeemed."

"Impossible." Wei Ting poured cold water on him, "Regardless of whether this concubine was bribed or not, this concubine will not change her words now. You must know that framing court officials and suing the master as a slave are two things It's a capital offense, do you think that concubine will sacrifice herself to save Liu Wenqi?"

Facing Wei Ting's words, Zheng Shanguo was dissatisfied and said, "Are you letting Your Highness sit back and watch Liu Xiang get implicated by Liu Wenqi?"

"Of course I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I"

"Enough!" Li Jiancheng interrupted them, and walked to the window irritably, "I asked you to come here to discuss countermeasures, not to quarrel, if you want to quarrel, get out!"

Matt, that's not annoying enough, is it?

"I'm guilty!" Zheng Shanguo and Wei Ting admitted their mistakes at the same time.

Wang Gui said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the situation is already like this. It's useless to worry about it. It's better to wait and see. If Liu Wenqi can't be kept by then, then Liu Wenjing must be kept."

"Of course Gu knows this, but you have to know that if it is true that Liu Wenqi practiced witchcraft, Liu Wenjing will not escape the crime."

Looking at the scourge of witchcraft in history, there was never a time when blood flowed into rivers.

Everyone understands this truth.It is precisely because of understanding that it makes people shudder.

Zheng Shanguo gritted his teeth and said: "Your Highness, I suspect that someone is behind this matter to murder Liu Xiang."

Do you still need to say that you think Gu doesn't know?
Li Jiancheng grimaced, "Gu knows who is stirring up the wind and rain, he must want revenge, it's ruthless!"

Last time, Donggong dealt with Dou's.

This time, he dealt with Liu Wenjing. Sure enough, his ambition was unbearable!
At this time, he remembered what Liu Wenjing once said, if the other party is not eliminated, the East Palace will not be safe!

Now, he recognizes this sentence.

Wang Gui asked: "Your Highness, did Xiang Liu leave anything?"

"No." Li Jiancheng shook his head, "He didn't leave Gu any words."

Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng became very irritable.

Wang Gui said: "Your Highness, you must find a way to meet Liu Xiang."

Since they couldn't agree on a reason, they had no choice but to ask Liu Wenjing for his opinion.

"But Liu Wenjing is not in Dali Temple, he is in the Ministry of Punishment." Zheng Shanguo said.

"It doesn't matter." Li Jiancheng said: "The Ministry of Punishment is not in charge of the King of Qin."

Prison prison.

Liu Wenjing sat on the haystack with a calm expression. Opposite him, Pei Ji stood outside the prison with a smile.

"Liu Xiang is very elegant, and he can still be so calm at this time. It seems that Liu Xiang really does not know the crimes committed by Liu Wenqi."

"If you want to commit a crime, why don't you have excuses?" Liu Wenjing opened her eyes.

Pei Ji said: "I don't know if it's what you said, but I only know that Liu Wenqi's crimes are hard to get rid of. Witchcraft and Gu techniques have been unbearable in all dynasties. Liu Xiang still needs to be prepared."

"Pei Ji, I never expected that you belong to King Qin." Liu Wenjing said through gritted teeth.

From the past, until now, he has always believed that Pei Ji is not the King of Qin's person.But now, his mind has changed.

Pei Ji was slightly taken aback, and immediately shook his head.

"Liu Wenjing, you are the one who wants to commit a crime, so why not worry about it?"

"You are not from the King of Qin?" Liu Wenjing frowned and said, "Since you are not from the King of Qin, why do you cooperate with the King of Qin?"

"Because Liu Wenqi is the one who committed the crime." Pei Ji made no secret of his malice towards Liu Wenjing.

Liu Wenjing was startled, and said immediately, "Do you hate me that much?"

"Aren't you the same?" Pei Ji asked back.

Hearing this, Liu Wenjing was slightly silent, and then he said melancholy: "Do you still remember, during the Daye years, I was the magistrate of Jinyang County, and you were the prisoner of Jinyang Palace. You and I will enter together when we go out, and we will sleep together when we enter. Thieves and robbers are everywhere, and the flames of war. You say, the poverty is so low, and the world is chaotic, how can you protect yourself? Let me tell you, the world is like this, the current events can be known, the situation can be predicted, and you and I get along well, so why worry about poverty.

The sage dives into the abyss, you and I know the heroes with our eyes, once supporting the Ming Lord, helping the community, and ranking in the court.But now, you and I are constantly fighting, and this is the end? "

Pei Ji sneered, "That's because you're stupid!"

"Am I stupid?"

"That's right, the sage is in court, you don't want to serve the sage, but instead serve the prince ahead of time, you are looking for your own death!"

"Absurd!" Liu Wenjing retorted: "The crown prince is the heir apparent of the country, so what's wrong with being loyal to the crown prince?"

Having said that, Pei Ji didn't want to chat with Liu Wenjing anymore.

Because Liu Wenjing is still that naive idiot.

There is nothing wrong with being loyal to the prince, but it is extremely stupid to put it at the moment.Since the end of the Jin Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Dynasties have stood side by side, and the throne has been constantly changing. How many fathers and sons have killed each other, and brothers have killed each other.Today's saints seem to be enlightened, but in fact they care about every detail.

Allegiance to the prince in advance is equivalent to allegiance to the 'Xinjun'.Now the saint's body has not declined, and the dragon is thriving and the tiger is fierce.If you are loyal to the prince, it is tantamount to setting up a separate court and emptying the saint.

How can a saint not guard against the history of blood?

More importantly, if he and Liu Wenjing continue to be friendly, the saint will never tolerate it.

"You do not understand."

"I don't understand?" Liu Wenjing sneered, "I understand, I understand better than you! Pei Ji, if you kill me today, the saint will never tolerate you. If I die, you will become a thorn in the eyes of the saint. Think about it carefully!"

"Hahahaha!" Pei Ji laughed wildly, as if hearing some generous joke.

"Laugh, you won't be able to laugh until you are in prison." Liu Wenjing said: "Today you are the hawk dog of the saint, and you are in the court, and no one can control it. But when the new king comes to the throne, you will die without a burial. place.

You and Donggong are irreconcilable.Over at Tiance Mansion, you have never had any contact with the King of Qin, and there are many constraints on weekdays.No matter who is the new king in the end, you will die!
To be honest, I still can't figure it out, you are not loyal to the crown prince, nor to the king of Qin.The saint is indeed in power now, but ten years from now, twenty years from now, what will you do?

Or do you never think about the future at all? "

"You don't understand." Pei Ji shook his head. "Liu Wenjing, you are so stupid. You think that my role in the saint is to suppress the prince and you. You don't understand at all."

Liu Wenjing sneered, "If I die, I will wait for you."

"Everyone will die. Of course I can't escape, but it will never be like what you said." Pei Ji said: "You think too highly of yourself. The saint has never regarded you and the prince as opponents. It is you who can't see it." I understand, I don't understand."

"What do you mean?" Liu Wenjing asked.

Pei Ji said indifferently: "The saint is the emperor. What he sees and thinks is far more than you and me. If you want to be the opponent of the saint, you are not worthy. Your capacity is too small."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Liu Wenjing sitting alone.

In Pei Ji's view, Liu Wenjing's vision is too narrow.

The confrontation between the crown prince and King Qin was indeed brought about by the sage, but if the sage regards the crown prince and Liu Wenjing as opponents, it would be ridiculous!
