Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 2854 811. Eight Treasures of Jade Food (Nalan Youmeng once again attracted Marquis Shangguan into the game)

"No... that's not what I meant... What the Supreme said~ Haha~ It seems that the lonely king is unkind and does not want to admit his fault~ Is the lonely king such a person? The Supreme also knows the lonely king's true intention. If the lonely king really I was thinking about the words of the Soul Training Platform... back then... I wouldn't have harmed the Blue Dragon Army just to save the Soul Training Platform... haha~"

At this moment, Shangguan Marquis seemed to have been seen through by Nalan Youmeng, and he was explaining his unintentional words with a guilty conscience.

Hearing these guilty words, Nalan Youmeng couldn't help but roll her eyes. She was not a fool. Naturally, he could hear Shangguan Marquis's insincere tone, which made it clear that it was a flattering and apologetic face to make up for it.

Nalan Youmeng was extremely disgusted when he saw this kind of face, because when a mortal makes such a face, he must have done something disgusting before, and later realized that it was wrong and wanted to I want to make up for it, so I can only lick my face to make peace.

Showing weakness is sometimes not necessarily a good thing. In the eyes of conspirators, showing weakness does not mean sincere repentance. To them, showing weakness is a weapon, either to confuse the carelessness of sloppy opponents, or to cover up one's own mistakes and hope that others will forgive their actions. a means.

Therefore, Nalan Youmeng had already sneered at Marquis Shangguan's behavior and was not surprised.

Nalan Youmeng smiled coldly and said: "Yes~ His Majesty the Dragon King is a rare upright person. If I hadn't seen the upright side of your heart, I and my sister would not have come to rescue you and helped you to embark on this powerful clan. It’s just that... His Majesty the Dragon King’s current attitude seems to deviate from my expectations.”

Hearing the other party's questioning voice, Shangguan Marquis had no choice but to smile awkwardly: "Why is it wrong? It's not like the lonely king has done nothing... In fact... to be honest, the lonely king has already obtained this letter in the early years, so naturally he is interested in this letter. The name of the person in the letter was well known. In order to punish the villain in the letter, King Gu took action quietly. Aren't the deaths of Wang Jingui and Huang Shiliang in this letter all the work of King Gu? It was just because of the emperor's influence. Due to human feelings and the influence of Gu Wang’s decision on the Quan clan, Gu Wang could only choose assassination instead of dealing with it openly. As for why Gu Wang did this, at the same time, the supreme emperor should be able to understand Gu Wang’s situation. ?”

Shangguan Marquis pitifully expressed his situation. Although his words were not explicit, they were actually very clear.

As an emperor, reputation and choices are very important. If he, Marquis Shangguan, first ascends to the throne and starts to kill his old ministers just after he takes the throne, no matter what the reason, if word gets out, it will definitely not sound good. By then, Marquis Shangguan will definitely He will end up with a reputation of being cruel and violent who cannot tolerate his old ministers.

And if the assassination is carried out without anyone noticing, and someone is found to take their place early, this will not have a negative impact on one's own reputation, but it can also act as a deterrent to the old ministers, and everyone who knows how to do it will understand.

This method of dealing with people without putting it on the surface is also one of the emperor's arts, and Marquis Shangguan is well versed in this.

But now, he confessed the matter to Nalan Youmeng. To put it bluntly, he wanted to express his position to the other party. At the same time, he also told the other party that he would not treat those villains lightly, but he only used a different method to punish them severely. In order to gain Just to make Nalan Youmeng feel relieved.

Unexpectedly, Nalan Youmeng is extremely sensitive when it comes to political issues. Unlike Marquis Shangguan, whose political attitude is ambiguous and insidious, her attitude has always been clear and tough, black and white, and never ambiguous. Nalan Youmeng sneered and said: "I don't understand what His Majesty the Dragon King is doing. In my opinion, a villain is a servant. No matter what he does to make up for it, it can't change the dark reality in his heart. Your Majesty the Dragon King doesn't have to No matter how you deal with it, if you really have your own attitude, your courtiers will not treat you in a double-faced way, saying one thing and doing another."

Upon hearing this, Marquis Shangguan was startled. He seemed to realize that there was something in Nalan Youmeng's words. What was this alluding to?
  Shangguan Marquis smiled awkwardly, and carefully asked: "Listen... what the Supreme meant, is this another situation that the lonely king didn't know about? Hearing what the Supreme said, the lonely king seemed to have something hidden. ah……"

Nalan Youmeng cast a deep glance at Marquis Shangguan, and then said unhurriedly: "This most cunning person knows how to disguise his own color, and he also knows how to maximize his own interests. His Majesty the Dragon King is the one who takes care of himself." Wang Jingui and Huang Shiliang were killed, but the most unforgivable mastermind behind this incident became the biggest fish that slipped through the net. They are also sinners. I don’t know why His Majesty the Dragon King severely punished the other two, but punished the other two. So Tun Lo Tien showed mercy outside the law?"

In response to Nalan Youmeng's question, Shangguan Marquis lowered his head and laughed dryly. He wanted to find an excuse to deal with it, but when he realized that this woman was not someone to be fooled, he simply told her the truth.

"The lonely king won't hide it from the master anymore. To be honest, Dun Luotian has served our Quan clan over the years and made a lot of achievements. Even if he did some big wrongs back then, they were just for profit. Xun Xin was just confused for a moment, but his subsequent attitude was indeed worthy of commendation. It can be regarded as a balance between merit and demerit~ Besides, he is now a Qinglong Seven-Star Soldier of our Quan Clan, with a high and powerful position. If... if we touch him easily, It will definitely cause shock in the court, and in order to stabilize the court... the lonely king has to choose to turn a blind eye."

After hearing such an answer, Nalan Youmeng snorted coldly, knowing that this would be the result. Although she had thought of it long ago, she still seemed a little disgusted by Shangguan Marquis's words and deeds.

"Really? Sure enough, His Majesty the Dragon King will never be moved by the core interests. After weighing the pros and cons, His Majesty the Dragon King still compromised with the forces, right? However, I don't know if His Majesty the Dragon King will still treat Dun Luo when he sees the truth. Is Tian merciful?"

As he spoke, Nalan Youmeng waved his sleeves, and a gust of wind came, causing the surrounding scene to distort and change, and time suddenly returned to the past——

Seeing the changes in the scene under his feet, Shangguan Marquis was surprised. He couldn't help but look up and asked the other party——

"Why is this happening, Supreme? What do you want the lonely king to see?"

Nalan Youmeng lowered his eyes sternly and said: "Your Majesty the Dragon King, don't say anything for now. Let's take a look at what good things your so-called important minister has done behind your back. After seeing what he did, you should re-examine Dun. This person is Luo Tian.”

Just when Marquis Shangguan was wondering, the scene under his feet became clearer and clearer, and two familiar figures gradually appeared...
