Chapter 9 Undercurrent (VI)

"Hu" A rapid cold wind blew outside the palace, penetrated the door and window ridges, causing the candlelight in the bedroom to sway.

"Xiufeng? Calligraphy? Is there any re-entry?" Guo Wei deliberately pretended to be very surprised and raised his hand weakly to flatten him. "Why are you three coming together? You are flat, all of them are free from giving me a flattening body!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Jun, Wang Yin and Li Chongjin replied in unison, and then stood up one after another like they had been rehearsed in advance. The three of them took Li Chongjin as the front and formed a character named "Pin". If they were holding weapons in their hands at this moment, they could form a formation and fight at any time.

"Is it important that you three come to the palace so late?" Guo Wei turned his head, looked at Wang Jun with gray hair, then looked at Wang Yin with scarred faces, sighed and asked in a low voice.

"It's nothing important. I haven't entered the palace for several days and I feel a little relieved!" Wang Jun smiled and bowed gently.

"Yes, Your Majesty, how are you today? Has your physical condition improved?" Wang Yin added immediately, and the "concern" in his eyes changed like a false alarm.

"Your Majesty is auspicious person, and there is definitely nothing serious about it." Li Chongjin smiled and lowered his head, wishing respectfully.

"Huh, it must be much better!" Guo Wei's heart was softened when asked. In an instant, he remembered the scenes of Wang Jun and Wang Yin drinking and eating meat together, and struggling to survive among the dead. His tone suddenly became much softer: "I ate a bowl of ginseng soup today, and I took the time to read a few memorials. Brother Xiufeng, I am sick this time, and I have to do it inside and outside. Otherwise, I don't know what the country will be in chaos?"

"Why should you be so polite to Your Majesty and Old Master?" After hearing Guo Wei's words, a warm feeling surged in Wang Jun's heart. But soon, this warmth was forcibly suppressed by him, and it was replaced by a cold and hard power scheme. "Although our Great Zhou belongs to Your Majesty, I have also overcome all obstacles for it back then, so I should naturally share the honor and disgrace with it."

"Yes, we have always been grasshoppers on the same rope." Guo Wei's eyes changed slightly, and he immediately nodded with a smile, "If you weren't Xiufeng, I wouldn't have the chance to sit in this position at all. If I hadn't Shude, I would probably not be able to sleep in the palace. Thank you for your hard work over the years."

"I am willing to share your worries for Your Majesty!" Wang Jun brought Wang Yin and bowed behind Li Chongjin's side. "I wish Your Majesty auspicious person and heavenly beings, and he will recover his health as soon as possible!"

"Haha, I'm so old. No matter how I recover, I can't compare to the past!" Guo Wei chuckled, shrank back, and slowly leaned against the wall with his body.

After recovering from the serious illness, his physical strength was far inferior to before. It was already very difficult to struggle and persevere for an afternoon. Now he continues to deal with Wang Jun, Wang Yin and Li Chongjin at the same time, and is overwhelmed from spirit to physical body. He can only rely on the support of the wall and keep himself from falling down halfway.

"Yes, so I have discussed a compromise solution, which can not only calm down your mind to nourish your body, but also ensure that there is no chaos in the court and the country. Please consider it!" Wang Jun saw that Guo Wei seemed to be ready to draw his sword at any time, so he did not dare to continue to circumnavigate, so he simply bit the bottom and added loudly.

'I finally came. Even if I delayed for a few days, I didn't want to leave it for me!' Guo Wei's heart was cold again. With the help of the wall, he slowly sat up straight, "Brother Xiufeng, please tell me clearly. As long as it makes sense, I will naturally not refute your face! And Shude, come back, are you two coming for the same thing as Xiufeng?"

"This..." Although he had already made up his mind before entering the palace. However, when it was true that the moment when Tuqiongjiu was seen, Li Chongjin couldn't help feeling a little weak. He did not dare to face Guo Wei's gaze, and quickly lowered his head and responded in a hoarse voice, "Even if so, uncle, you have also ordered your nephew to ask Wang Shumi for advice."

"That's right!" After all, he was also a dead man who had rolled in the crowd. The performance of the Grand Marshal Wang Yin and Wang Shude was much stronger than that of Li Chongjin. He raised his head without fear and announced that he would advance and retreat with Wang Jun.

"Then let's say it, what's going on?" The last glimmer of hope in my heart was completely shattered. Guo Wei laughed instead of anger, "While I'm still awake, otherwise it's too late!" Brother Xiufeng, you and Chongjin came together today. Is there anything I need to make an idea?"

Wang Jun was trembling with laughter. He gritted his teeth and simply went straight to the point, "Your Majesty, Wang Jun, please ask Your Majesty to make the emperor's nephew Li Chongjin the crown prince. During His Majesty's recovery, he will be the crown prince to supervise the country. He will be in charge of the court for His Majesty, control all civil and military officials, and guard the world!"

"Please change the emperor's nephew to the crown prince!" Wang Yin bowed and clasped his fists, as if he was armored, ready to lead his troops to the war at any time.

"Baby, kid, kid is willing to share his worries for his uncle!" Seeing that both of them had already made clear about their intentions tonight, Li Chongjin knew that he had no way out, so he gritted his teeth and bowed his fists and took the initiative to "voluntle".

Originally, the three of them were going to say a few off-topic words to dispel Guo Wei's vigilance and slowly get back to the topic. Unexpectedly, although Guo Wei was so ill that he was still chasing them with a few words. Therefore, he could only cut the mess quickly to avoid delaying it. The courage in his heart was completely wiped out and he voluntarily pleaded guilty and gave in!

I originally thought that after I made my own decision, Guo Wei had to struggle a little before he would muster up the courage to bargain. Unexpectedly, the process was not that troublesome. As soon as Li Chongjin finished speaking, Guo Wei directly replied, "No, Chongjin's ability is limited and it is not enough to replace Jungui. I cannot report this matter! Don't mention it again in the future."

"I am your nephew, and the blood of the Guo family flows on me!" Li Chongjin couldn't stop immediately, jumped up, and emphasized loudly.

"Jungui is my adopted son!" Guo Wei was not moved by this reason at all. He looked at him disdainfully and emphasized loudly, "Jungui once raised money and grain for me and ran around the south and north of the Yangtze River. Jungui once led the army to fight for me, but served me and Khitan outside the country. Jungui once personally managed the floods of the Yellow River and benefited all the people in the world! And what have you done for me, the country, and the people of the world? If you become the prince, where will you place your Lord? Gao Baima, Fu Laolang, Chang Feihu and Jungui's brother Zheng Ziming, will you agree? Will the millions of common people on both sides of the Yellow River agree?"

"This..." Li Chongjin was originally a talented man. Had he thought so much before? He was asked so quickly that he couldn't answer a word, blushing and sweating profusely.

He can ignore the ideas of the people in the world. He can also ignore the merits that benefit the people. The people are sheep, the emperor and all officials are shepherds. As long as they have a whip and a butcher's knife in their hands, they will not care about the ideas of the sheep, and they will not be afraid of the rebellion of the sheep.

However, Gao Baima, Fu Laolang, Chang Feihu and Zheng Ziming all held heavy troops. The first one's son was close to Chai Rong, the second one was Chai Rong's father-in-law, the third one, and his son-in-law was the fourth one, Chai Rong's sworn brother Zheng Ziming, and his daughter, as usual, called Chai Rong "Uncle!"
