Almighty Nongmen Phoenix

King Jin looked at him fixedly, and did not believe his explanation.

Indeed, such an explanation is a bit too far-fetched and too weak.

"Having been a puppet for so many years, Wanfu appeared last year."

Hearing him mention Lu Yaoyao, King Jin's pupils shrank slightly, but he quickly covered it up, pretending to be listening carefully.

"This girl has a good personality. When I get along with her, I feel more relaxed than ever."

"It's as if there is flesh and blood all of a sudden."

"As this feeling grows stronger, I want to get rid of the shackles of the Wang family."

"That's why you are here to take over as the commander of the Left Imperial Guard."

Hearing this, King Jin thought in his heart, and seemed to have a little faith in what Emperor Hongwen said at this time.

"I have said more than once that Wanfu is my lucky star. This is from the bottom of my heart."

"Her appearance made me feel the truth of flesh and blood that I haven't seen for a long time, and because of her, I gradually weakened the power in the hands of the Wang family."

"The Left Imperial Guard is just one of them, and the governor of Jiangdong is the second."

"The salt and iron are all in my hands now, and the Wang family can't intervene. These are all brought by her for me."

"But you haven't fully grasped these things, and this king has a lot of them. Since you said that you are not King Ning, nor the Xiao family, you and I are enemies. Why do you still give these things to this king?"

Emperor Hongwen smiled.

"Although I am not from the Xiao family, I have gained the greatest benefit from the Xiao family."

"Also, you're wrong about one thing."

"Ok?"

King Jin raised his eyebrows.

"It's because you said that you and I are enemies are wrong."

"First of all, before I ascended the throne, I always thought that I belonged to the Xiao family. Although I learned the truth later, I did not regard the Xiao family as an enemy."

"As for the deaths of your brothers, I may have ordered to participate, but the fundamental promoter is the Wang family."

"Of course, if you regard me as an enemy, you should, and I accept it."

These words made King Jin silent. He was actually very clear about what happened back then, and there was almost no discrepancy with what Emperor Hongwen said at this time.

In fact, from this point of view, King Jin still admired Emperor Hongwen for his uprightness. Since he confessed, he didn't hide it at all, and he was what he was.

"As for why I handed over those things to you, part of it is because of the guilt towards the Xiao family, and of course more because I want to use you to fight against the Wang family, so that I can find opportunities from it."

"After all, to me, both of you are people I don't want to keep."

For him sitting in the emperor's seat, it would be a lie to say that he doesn't miss it at all. How can someone who has experienced this kind of feeling not be infatuated with it?
It's just that when some things exceed this obsession, or you are powerless, you will have to let go, whether you are willing or unwilling, you have to let go.

"In this case, why do you, my king, say this today? If you don't say it, you can better use this king to target the Wang family. You can continue to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

"Because I have no confidence in Shang Wang's family, and if I give you something in the interim, the Wang family will also become suspicious, and the Wang family will definitely not let me go."...

"They can make the late emperor die. For me, a pawn, is it easy to kill them?"

"If I want to live, I always have to pay something, don't I?"

In this regard, the King of Jin could not deny it. The Wang family was ambitious. If they really sensed that their status was in danger, it would not be impossible to take action against Emperor Hongwen.

After all, the eldest son of Emperor Hongwen is also of the blood of the Wang family, and with the status of the queen, it is easier for them to control.

It is reasonable to choose such a choice in order to survive.

"Faced with such facts, why do you think this king wants to help you?"

"Because Wang De said something to me earlier."

"What?"

King Jin showed doubts.

"This is the world of the Xiao family. Although my true identity is not from the Xiao family, in the eyes of most people in Dongzhou, I am the Xiao family."

"So, you will never let the world change your surname, and I don't want to die, but I can die."

"Why don't you want to die, but you can die?"

King Jin asked again.

"If you don't want to die, you don't need to explain it. You can die, but you don't really die."

"Can you give up?"

The so-called being able to die means death in name, but not real death, but doing so is tantamount to leaving the throne, King Jin doesn't think the other party will be willing to do so.

"Sooner or later, there will be such a day, won't it?"

"On the one hand, he was killed after being used by the Wang family, and on the other hand, he was cheating death and surviving. How would you choose?"

For today, Emperor Hongwen thought for a long time, and he had to have an absolutely plausible reason, but also to conceal the real reason, he spent a lot of thought.

King Jin can accept his statement.

"However, aren't you afraid that this king will also kill you after using you?"

"I'm afraid, but I have no choice, but I didn't touch you back then, so it's a life-saving grace, right?"

"I just want to gamble on this friendship again. Although it will be ridiculous, it is not without gamble, is it?"

King Jin was silent, but nodded inwardly.

There is indeed gambleability, especially after the other party directly confesses and expresses his thoughts, the gambleability is even higher.

"What should be said, I have already explained, you can think carefully about how to choose."

"Do you want to keep the Xiao family world together with me, or let the Wang family steal the Xiao family world."

King Jin nodded, stood up, turned and left the Dragon Head Hall directly.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't mention Lu Yaoyao much, and they didn't mean to express their well-known identity at all.

After leaving the Dragon Head Hall, King Jin suppressed all his thoughts, first went to the camp of the Left Guards, selected a lot of guards, and then went to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

When he arrived at the household department, Emperor Hongwen's will had already come.

Seeing him coming, the Minister of the Household Department immediately explained the work, took a few subordinates, and left the capital with the imperial guards brought by King Jin to the nearby salt and iron workshop.

After finishing all the matters that Emperor Hongwen had explained, it was already evening when he returned to the capital, and after returning to Emperor Hongwen, the King of Jin went back to the mansion as usual.

During this day, he didn't show anything unusual.

After returning to the palace, after dinner, just about to get up and go to the study, Yan Yi came.

"My lord, the matter you explained has been done, but if we do this, is it a bit of a temporary solution instead of a root cause?"

It turned out that after knowing what the Han family had done in the three neighboring countries, and the fact that Xi Rong had come to seek peace, King Jin was motivated to kill.

He heard that envoys were sent from Southern Xinjiang, so he immediately ordered Yan Yi to rush to the southeast border and kill all the envoys from Southern Xinjiang who were coming to snatch his wife.

This is why the news of the dispatch of envoys from southern Xinjiang was known to people in the capital a few months ago, but it has been several months, and the reason why no one has been seen yet.
