I, the prince, only want to be deposed.

Chapter 270 I'm ready to steal the jade and steal the fragrance
"Based on the above information, I made some preliminary inferences."

"Assuming that there is a possibility that Hejian Country is hostile to Your Highness, and this possibility is set to 100%, then we can make a rough analysis from the perspective of motivation."

"Because of his great-grandfather's incident, Hejian King Liu Shou should naturally have some hostility towards Your Majesty and Your Highness, but he has not shown it to the outside world, so I temporarily set the risk at 20%;"

"The Confucian scholars of Hejian State have a certain sense of crisis because Your Highness had previously refuted the Confucian scholars on the 'deposing and enthroning the crown prince' and then imprisoned them. In addition, Your Majesty has never really used Confucian scholars. After the 'deposing and enthroning the crown prince', you have changed your national policy to 'respect Confucianism alone and dismiss all other schools of thought'. The Confucian scholars have publicly made remarks that are unfavorable to Your Majesty and Your Highness. Therefore, I temporarily set the risk at 60%;"

"For the remaining 20%, there is no definite target at the moment, but the governor of Hejian County, Wei Chen, and those local officials, the unknown nobleman, the people of Hejian who have been influenced by Confucian scholars for decades...even Guo Xuanzi who is traveling with Your Highness, may be hostile to Your Highness, so I will temporarily classify the remaining 20% ​​of risks as others."

"Among the risks that could be detrimental to Your Highness, the combined risk of Hejian King Liu Shou and Hejian Confucian scholars has reached 80%."

"Therefore, I think that for the time being, we should focus our investigation on Hejian King Liu Shou and the Confucian scholars of Hejian State. After the identity of this 'lucky nobleman' is confirmed, we should also join in the re-evaluation."

"Unfortunately, time is running out at the moment. If we can further analyze the risks that Your Highness may face, and then continue to conduct in-depth investigations into these people's daily behavior habits, speech, and social interactions, we can further refine the risk assessment."

"And before the results of further detailed assessments come out."

"I think it is inappropriate for Your Highness to meet this 'lucky nobleman' from Hejian State, let alone get along with him, because considering the risk situation in Hejian State, the possibility that this person will have an adverse impact on Your Highness is far greater than a favorable impact."

"Your Highness, please understand!"

Having said this, Wei Kang finally stopped.

Liu Ju also finished reading the bamboo slips handed over by Wei Kang. The content was not much different from what he said, except that it was more detailed.

Liu Ju raised his head and looked at Wei Kang with admiration again.

Without knowing anything about his "turning the tables" plan, this guy actually analyzed to this extent based on the rough intelligence he had gathered in just one day's investigation.

Moreover, the method used gives people a very scientific feeling. If he had not seen the proportional distribution charts of later generations, he might have been handed a pie chart or a doughnut chart.

He even mentioned theories on risk refinement and decomposition.

And behavioral habits, speech, social interaction, etc. involve the concept of establishing a character model...

Damn, so professional!

I asked you to draw inferences about other cases, but who told you to draw inferences about a hundred cases? Could this guy be the "Innate Intelligence Holy Body"?

The most important thing is that his analysis has gradually approached the exact conclusions that Liu Ju has drawn through his historical knowledge. If Liu Ju was not a time traveler, this report could be used directly as an important reference and would basically not make any mistakes.

"Cousin, you were really buried before..."

Liu Ju sighed sincerely, and the word "before" had a double meaning, but Wei Kang probably couldn't hear it.

"Hey, what's the point of burying me? I'm only 23, so it's not too late to start working hard now, right?"

Wei Kang felt a little embarrassed. His old face turned red and he waved his hand. Then he turned serious and said,
"Your Highness, the biggest problem now is that your birthday is today. If you miss tonight, you will miss your good fortune. Time is really too tight. Neither this 'lucky star' nor the others will have enough time to investigate. What should we do?"

"Don't worry, cousin. This is enough."

Liu Ju smiled and said confidently:

"Cousin, take a rest first. When we get to Houjing County, we will go and meet my 'lucky star'."

……

It was seven quarters past the hour before the sun set.

The parade convoy finally arrived at Houjing County Government Office.

Just as Liu Ju had guessed before, these people's plans were extremely thorough.

Although there were still several hours left before Liu Ju's birthday, it was well known that in the Han Dynasty where there were not many nighttime entertainment activities, once it got dark the only activities left were sleeping and making babies. Therefore, they actually only gave Liu Ju one hour to contact "Lady Gouyi".

To achieve this level, it obviously requires not only a very careful plan, but also cooperation from all aspects...

The local officials of Houjing County had been waiting for a long time.

As soon as the parade motorcade arrived, they immediately rushed over to help settle the accompanying personnel, while welcoming Liu Ju and others into the guest hall of Houjing County Yamen where a banquet had already been set up.

"Without further delay, let's skip the red tape and bring my 'lucky star' up for a look."

After sitting down, Liu Ju did not waste time talking to them and directly gave orders to the magistrate of Houjing County.

"promise."

The magistrate of Houjing County was a middle-aged man in his forties named Jia Xun.

This man had a fair complexion, and his every move was gentle and elegant. When he heard Liu Ju's words, he bowed and responded, then went to do it himself.

After a while.

A graceful figure dressed in a long straight-hem gown of the color of a royal concubine and a piece of gauze shaped like a veil on her head, carefully supported by two maids, followed Jason slowly into the hall.

Just looking at her figure and the hazy face revealed through the veil, she is indeed a feast for the eyes.

So we came to the center of the living room.

This woman did not show Liu Ju her clenched fists like the "Zhang Jiaque" that Liu Qi, the Prince of Guangchuan, had found for him. Instead, she hung her arms and hid her hands in her wide sleeves. "Lift the veil."

Liu Ju stared at the woman with "burning eyes" and said only four words.

The two maids behind the woman quickly bowed and carefully took off the veil on her head, revealing a fair and delicate face.

I have to admit that this woman is indeed a rare beauty.

Just talking about appearance, if we have to make a comparison, she should be able to compete with Han Ling, but their styles are slightly different.

Han Ling has a kind of beauty that exudes a hint of heroism and a quirky spirit.

This woman's facial features are softer, and she exudes a gentle and intellectual beauty.

"My humble daughter Beitang Zhaohui greets His Highness."

After the veil was removed, the beauty lowered her eyelids and bowed slightly to Liu Ju, showing the demeanor of a lady from a noble family, and her voice was fresh and pleasant.

"The surname Beitang?"

Whether in the past life or this life, people with this surname are extremely rare. Liu Ju has also heard of some celebrities with this double surname.

However, he knew that the surname of the historical "Lady Gouyi" should be Zhao, which had nothing to do with Beitang.

"Your Highness, this surname is derived from the Ji surname, which comes from Ji Kuo, the great-grandson of Duke Cheng of Wei, the monarch of the Wei State during the Spring and Autumn Period."

Jia Xun, the magistrate of Houjing County, bowed and introduced Liu Ju,
"Ji Kuo was a hereditary minister of the State of Wei and lived in Beigong, north of the capital of Wei, so he was nicknamed 'Beigong Kuo'. Later, his descendants took 'Beigong' as their surname and called themselves the Beigong clan."

"Later, when Qin II destroyed the Wei State, the Beigong family changed one of the characters to 'Beitang' to avoid the disaster, and this has been passed down from generation to generation to this day."

The Ji surname is really powerful.

It is one of the eight ancient surnames of the Celestial Empire. It is the surname of Emperor Huangdi and also the surname of the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. It is enough to scare people at any time, and it is definitely a descendant of the nobility.

This now meets the two conditions Liu Ju had previously proposed.

One is of extraordinary appearance, and the other is from a famous family.

"I see."

Liu Ju nodded slightly, and then asked calmly,
"Beitang Zhaohui, I wonder what your talent is. Are you familiar with the Five Classics? Do you have any accomplishments in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting?"

"In reply to your Highness, I have been studying the Five Classics since I was young. Although I dare not claim to have any insights, I can still recite a few unskillful poems."

Beitang Zhaohui lowered his head slightly and answered softly,
"It's just that since I was young, I have been unable to stretch my hands, so it's really hard for me to learn music, chess, calligraphy, or painting. I can only appreciate and sing a few lines of classical music. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Your Highness."

The answer was flawless and showed that he was extremely well prepared.

Liu Ju nodded, looked sideways at Guo Xuanzi who was still resting with his eyes closed, and asked:
"Lord Guo, please tell me for sure, is this beauty my lucky star or not?"

"Now the aura of His Highness is resonating with that of this woman, and they are entangled with each other. There is no mistake anymore."

Guo Xuanzi still did not open his eyes, but nodded slightly to give an affirmative answer.

But Liu Ju suddenly asked another inexplicable question:
"Are you sure you don't want to change it?"

"?"

Guo Xuanzi's heart trembled when he heard this, and he opened his eyes unconsciously.

"?"

There were also many people in the hall who looked puzzled and looked at Liu Ju in surprise.

This question is not only puzzling, but also makes people who have something to hide feel guilty, secretly wondering whether Liu Ju has noticed something wrong.

at the same time.

Wei Kang's eyes quickly swept across the faces of everyone in the hall, secretly noting down all those whose expressions changed significantly.

Of course, the people whose expressions did not change at all, and who did not even raise their heads, were remembered firmly in his mind.

Guo Xuanzi's reaction was also quick.

After opening his eyes, he saw that Liu Ju was still smiling and had no obvious doubts. He quickly calmed down and nodded again:

"Your Highness, you are joking. A lucky star is a lucky star. It has been destined by heaven since birth. How can it be changed?"

"Since Lord Guo has said so, it should not be wrong."

Liu Ju grinned.

"Doctor Yi, please step forward and search her body first. I will be ready to steal her."
