Marshal, your vest is off

Chapter 235 False Persuasion
"Think about it, if you take refuge with the Emperor, first of all, you don't have to worry about your life. Secondly, you can still enjoy the glory and wealth. Besides, hasn't your wish always just been for a bronze sword? As long as you take refuge with the Emperor, What's wrong?" Cheng Qing urged very hard.

"Hmph, who cares about bronze swords anymore?" Zhao Wuyuan looked like a tough-talking duck, but his tone had become looser.

Cheng Qing smiled and continued: "Look, aren't there other benefits besides the bronze sword? Think about it, what are the benefits of being an emperor? Sitting on that dragon chair every day, a big There are so many things to deal with. Although there are three thousand beauties in the harem, how often do you really enjoy it? Every word and deed represents the entire Zhao country. You have to think twice before you say anything or do anything, and you can't really show it. My own preferences. Just for the sake of power and position, do you think you are losing money?"

Zhao Wuyuan thought about it seriously, nodded, and said, "That seems to be the case."

"That's right, you see, if your life is in danger, just fight for it. It's okay to work yourself to death in order to save your life. But the key point is that your life is not in danger, right? As long as you surrender to the emperor, everything else will be done. Let him worry about the matter alone, we can go around and have fun, and we are not short of money." Cheng Qing persuaded in pursuit of victory.

Zhao Wuyuan nodded again and said, "That makes sense."

"So, do you agree?" Cheng Qing asked: "Let's work with the emperor to find a way to kill Zhao Wujue and let him secure his position as emperor."

"Okay, I agree." Zhao Wuyuan said cheerfully: "Then does the emperor have any good ideas?"

Cheng Qing shook his head and said: "There is just no good way, so I asked you to persuade you first, and then we can find a way together."

"I see." Zhao Wuyuan said, "I don't have any good ideas right now. How about we all think about it first and then give the emperor some ideas?"

Cheng Qing nodded.

On the dark rafters, shadows flashed past.

Sensing the movement, Cheng Qing stood up, walked to the door, opened the door, and looked outside.

The guard not far away saw her opening the door, came over respectfully, and asked, "What orders does the princess have?"

Cheng Qing said: "You guys stay a little farther away and help us pay attention to what's going on around us. Don't let anyone get close to here."

"Yes." The guard said respectfully.

Cheng Qing closed the door and walked inside.

Zhao Wuyuan asked: "How is it?"

Cheng Qing nodded and said, "He's gone, you can rest assured."

Zhao Wuyuan breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why are you being followed?"

"This is a long story, let's go to a safe place first." Cheng Qing said.

"Ah."

The two entered the secret room and saw the door closed. Cheng Qing was completely relieved and said, "I attracted the person on purpose."

"Intentionally provoked?" Zhao Wuyuan repeated doubtfully, and then came back to his senses and said: "I understand, you want to kill two birds with one stone, so when you were outside just now, you said those words on purpose. If the people who come are from Zhao Wuye, it proves your loyalty. If the people who come are from Zhao Wujue, then they can just sow discord."

Cheng Qing nodded and said: "Yes, that's it. The late emperor's final decision made us change from passive to active. No matter which side we join at this time, it will arouse the suspicion of the other side. As long as they have If you are suspicious, you will be taken advantage of by us."

"Thanks to you being here, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to do anything about the current situation." Zhao Wuyuan sighed.

Cheng Qing smiled lightly and said: "Don't be so modest, your own strength is not bad, and you are courageous and resourceful. It's just that you are willing to let go of your body and listen to my arrangements. If you are asked to do it yourself, you will also There will be a solution."

Zhao Wuyuan smiled and shook his head, saying: "You have a kind of magic power, I seem to be able to listen to you involuntarily." Cheng Qing touched his nose, maybe it was a sequelae of previous training, right?

"What should I do next? Should I go see Zhao Wuye?" Zhao Wuyuan asked.

Cheng Qing shook his head and said: "It's best not to. I told Zhao Wuye to let you be the one who secretly took refuge. Now not only can you not go to him, but you also have to act like you are at odds with him."

"Is this possible?" Zhao Wuyuan asked.

"Just do what I say, I'll keep it safe." Cheng Qing stroked his chin and said, "In order to convince Zhao Wuye, we have to give a secret sign."

Zhao Wuyuan nodded.

Cheng Qing thought while saying: "It can't be too obvious, and it can't be too obscure."

"Just ask him to ask me, 'Do we still have brotherhood before?', and I will say: 'It's cold at high places.'" Zhao Wuyuan said.

Cheng Qing thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "This is feasible. It is in line with the current situation and the code is correct. There are many ways to answer this question, but there is only one way we have agreed."

Zhao Wuyuan nodded.

Cheng Qing said: "That's good. I will tell him this when I go back. By the way, have the late emperor's back-up men found you?"

Zhao Wuyuan looked at her, and said: "Guess what, the emperor left me behind?"

Cheng Qing stroked his chin and guessed: "If you want to sit on the throne, there are two things you cannot do without. One is financial resources, and the other is material resources. I guess the emperor will leave you with these two things."

"Yes, it is indeed the case." Zhao Wuyuan said.

"No matter how specific it is, I can't guess it. Just tell me." Cheng Qing said.

"Do you still remember the secret guards of my father?" Zhao Wuyuan said.

Cheng Qing nodded and said: "It turned out to be them. I said, why did they disappear all of a sudden? That's why."

"I only found out about that group of secret guards later. I originally thought there were only a few of them, but I didn't expect there were thousands of them behind them. The ones who often appear in front of us are the leaders of each detachment." Zhao Wuyuan said.

"Their martial arts are very strong. With them here, it won't be a problem to break into the palace. What's more, I'm here with the Royal Forest Army. As long as I give the order, they can open the city gate to welcome you." Cheng Qing said.

"Will they really listen to you then?" Zhao Wuyuan was a little doubtful.

Cheng Qing said: "No way, you don't believe me now? The situation is very chaotic now, but with me here, I am still their backbone. Ask them now, can they tell clearly who is right? Who is wrong?"

"That's right." Zhao Wuyuan dismissed his worries.

"Well, now that we know everything, it's time for me to leave. If I stay too long, I'm afraid that people outside will become suspicious." Cheng Qing said.
