"...according to the words of the general Xia Yu himself, Gong Ziyu was actually killed by Gongzi Jie. However, Wei Jie is a fool! This man is fierce in appearance and has no courage and plan. How could he have the ambition to kill Gong Ziyu and replace him? I think I

, there may be something fishy in it..."

In the Chui Gong Hall, Wei King Zhao Run finished reading the urgent secret message sent by Gao Kuo's people from Puyang of the Wei Kingdom, slapped the secret message in his hand on the dragon table, and rubbed the bridge of his eyebrows with his right hand.

All the ministers in the palace looked at each other, and everyone could tell that the young king was worried. As for the reason, they, the ministers in the palace, had already learned about the death of Duke Wei Ziyu through their own channels.

information.

"Your Majesty, could this be news from Weiguo?"

Du You, the Minister of Rites, asked tentatively.

Zhao Hongrun nodded.

Seeing this, Li Liang, the minister of the inner court, asked: "Has Captain Gao ever found out the murderer who killed Duke Wei Ziyu?"

The ministers in the inner court were very curious about the murderer of Wei Yu. They must know that the prince of Wei and the new king of Wei were close cousins, but no one dared to kill Wei.

Yu - all the ministers are very curious as to who is responsible for this.

Zhao Hongrun let out a long breath, as if he was not in the mood to explain, and waved his hand to the eunuch Gao He behind him to hand Du You the secret letter on the Long Case, and told Du You to watch it by himself.

Under the curious gazes of the other inner court ministers, Du You took the secret letter from the eunuch Gao He, scanned it carefully, and then told the general contents of the secret letter to all the ministers in the palace.

After listening to Du You's story, Li Liang also nodded and said: "I also feel that this matter is a bit strange... I have heard about Wei Jie in the past. He is just a drunkard and a womanizer. I am afraid that he may not have the courage to kill Wei Yu."

Instead."

Hearing this, Lin Yuyang, Yu Ziqi, Xu Guan and other veterans who had been in the court for a long time also nodded.

At this time, Feng Yu suddenly interrupted: "I wonder if the imperial court should intervene in this matter?"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall immediately turned their attention to Feng Yu.

Seeing that he suddenly became the center of attention, Feng Yu was stunned for a moment, seemed to feel a little uncomfortable, and quickly explained: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, Puyang is currently in chaos. I am worried that the civil strife in Weiguo will affect our country.

…”

After hearing this, Du You also stroked his beard and echoed: "We, the Wei Dynasty, cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the Wei Dynasty because the Wei Gong Ziyu is still here, but under the current situation, the Wei Wang family is completely unable to suppress... uh, resolve the civil strife.

The state of Wei is a vassal state of our great Wei State, if we allow its civil strife for a long time, I am afraid that it will also be detrimental to our great Wei state."

After hearing this, Zhao Hongrun pondered for a moment and said with a strange expression: "What do you mean, dear friends, that I should support Wei Fei and turn Wei Yu's Eastern Army into a 'rebel army'?"

As soon as they heard the young king calling himself "I", all the ministers in the palace knew that His Majesty was unhappy.

It’s no wonder that His Majesty was actually paying attention to Wei Gong Ziyu to inherit the throne of Wei before. But now, Wei Yu is dead, and even if the Wei State wants to support Wei Yu, it can’t be done. - In

In this case, changing one's position to support King Wei seems to be more beneficial to Wei?

But in this way, the Eastern Army, which is currently attacking Puyang and trying to avenge Gong Ziyu, will inevitably become a rebel army.

While everyone was thinking about it, they suddenly heard Jie Ziyu saying with a smile: "Your Majesty, I heard that Wei Yu has a son and a daughter. His son "Wei Yun" is about six or seven years old now. Why don't you support this young son?"

Where is Mr. Wei?"

"Anoint a six or seven-year-old boy as King Wei?"

All the courtiers in the palace looked at Jie Zizi in disbelief.

If Jie Ziyu's suggestion is to support Wei Yun, Wei Yu's son, as the crown prince of Wei, then they can understand it, but to support the youngest son as the king of Wei? This is a bit nonsense, right? At such a young age, it must be the king of Wei.

I will be ignored by my ministers...wait a minute!

The quick-thinking people such as Li Liang, Yu Ziqi and others all looked at Jie Zizi in amazement, with a faint hint of enlightenment on their faces.

Even those who reacted a little slower gradually came to their senses, but for some reason, they remained silent.

In the silent inner hall, Zhao Hongrun looked at Jiezi Ou intently and asked calmly: "Jiezi, what do you want to say?"

I saw Jie Zizi arching his hands towards Zhao Hongrun and saying seriously: "Your Majesty, I think that Wei Yu's death is a regret for losing a relative for your Majesty, but for me, the great Wei Dynasty, it is not a bad thing."

A good thing…”

As he spoke, he glanced around at the ministers present and continued: "As far as I know, the reason why our country Wei formed an alliance with Wei was because South Korea was eyeing the enemy in the north. We, Wei, were unable to defeat the powerful South Korea and needed to unite with Wei.

The Kuomintang and the Communist Party fought against South Korea... But now that Wei is strong and Korea is weak, the Wei Kingdom and our great Wei are no longer of much help."

"..."

All the ministers in the palace showed thoughtful expressions.

To be fair, is this matter worth pondering? In the past ten years, what kind of help has Wei Guo brought to him?

Especially during the most difficult period of the Wei State, that is, the period of "Five Parties Conquering Wei", did the Wei State help the Wei State?

Wasn't it Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Yuanzuo, and Zhao Yuanji, the three commanders of the Zhao royal family, as well as the local elite soldiers of Wei State, who turned the tide of the war with one against five?

What did Weiguo do? One Sima Shang almost brought the downfall of Weiguo!

What help can such a weak vassal state bring to Wei?

However, the ministers in the palace still showed thoughtful expressions, and some even frowned and shook their heads. The reason was that the biological mother of Zhao Run, the new king of Wei State, was from Wei. - It is precisely for this reason that,

No matter how weak Wei Guo is, Wei Guo will still play with Wei Guo.

Before Zhao Run clearly expressed his attitude, no one would dare to propose taking the opportunity to annex Weiguo.

But Jiezi Ou seems to be getting closer to this topic at this moment.

"Although Wei Yu has a pedantic character, judging from what he has done in his country over the years, he is still a leader of the ZTE... If Wei Yu had not died this time, then the strength of Wei State would have grown by leaps and bounds.

...I think that if we, the Wei Dynasty, only stop at being the "overlord of the Central Plains", then it does not matter whether the Weiguo is strong or weak, but if Your Majesty is determined to become the "co-lord of the world"..."

At this point, Jie Ziyu paused deliberately, then looked at Zhao Hongrun and continued: "Then, Wei Yu's death is not necessarily a bad thing!"

"The common master of the world?"

"Hey! This Master Jiezi is really outspoken..."

"I just said this, and I'm afraid Your Majesty will never change his mind."

The ministers in the palace looked at each other for a few times and did not dare to speak rashly.

It is undeniable that the Wei State does not lack land at present, but this is only for the "overlord of the Central Plains". However, if the goal of the Wei State has been raised to "the common master of the world" as Jie Ziu said, then the situation will be serious.

Because it's different.

There are no allies on the way forward in pursuit of the goal of "the common master of the world"!

The same goes for Weiguo!

"Tuk, Tuk, Tuk, Tuk..."

Zhao Hongrun looked at the meson owl and tapped the table with his fingers. Based on the ministers' understanding of the new king, the new king was definitely not weighing the pros and cons at this moment, but thinking about how to scold the meson owl.

Dayton.

Seeing this, Feng Yu quickly smiled and smoothed things over and said: "Hahaha, what Mr. Jiezi said is really shocking... I never thought that Mr. Jiezi's vision was so far-reaching, and the future generations are terrifying, but I would like to suggest that this time

It is better to wait and see for the best... Although we, the Wei Dynasty, have now firmly established ourselves as the overlords of the Central Plains, we still do not have the strength to challenge all the countries in the world. Once the news is leaked, I am afraid that we, the Wei Dynasty, will become the public enemy of all countries...

"

Jie Ziyu smiled slightly and said: "What Mr. Feng said is absolutely true. Therefore, Jie Ziyu suggests that your majesty support Wei Yun, Wei Yu's son, to become Wei Jun. In this name, Wei Fei, Wei Jie and others can be eradicated.

To regain the heart of the Eastern Army..."

His intention was very simple, that is, to take this opportunity to secretly control the government of Weiguo and lay the foundation for annexing Weiguo in the future.

I have to say that Jie Ziyu is really good at calculating.

"..."

Zhao Hongrun remained silent while looking at Jie Zizi, who was talking eloquently.

The ministers guessed well. In fact, he was really thinking about how to scold this bastard Jie Zizi at the moment - Weiguo is already like that, why the hell do you want to add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation?

But reason calmed down Zhao Hongrun: Jie Zizi was always making suggestions for his country of Wei. He should not accuse Jie Zi just because he had a good impression of Wei Yu.

Jie Ziu and Wei Yu have no friendship at all.

After taking a deep look at the meson owl, Zhao Hongrun stood up and walked out of the hall without saying a word.

Seeing this, all the ministers in the palace looked at me with helpless eyes. However, meson was very calm and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is a wise king!"

After hearing this, all the ministers in the palace nodded thoughtfully: Although the new king Zhao Run is not the most diligent monarch in his country of Wei, in terms of talents and strategies, I am afraid that none of the previous kings have been able to do so.

To its right.

At the same time, Zhao Hongrun had walked out of the Chui Gong Hall, taking only the senior eunuch Gao He and two junior eunuchs with him, walking aimlessly in the imperial garden, thinking about Jie Zitu's words in his heart.

To be honest, Zhao Run didn't have much feeling about Jie Zizi's so-called "common master of the world".

After all, he was not an ambitious person to begin with.

He only has two wishes in this life.

The first wish was selfish: when he was young, he hoped that he could be like his sixth uncle Zhao Yuanli, a dandy who only wanted to have fun and live out his life comfortably.

But unfortunately, the Wei State at that time was not strong. In view of this situation, Zhao Hongrun reluctantly shouldered the responsibility of defending the country, step by step, until now.

As for the second wish, it is relatively selfless, that is, he hopes that Wei will be strong, prosperous, and peaceful.
To be continued...
