Today, when I recall what King Jin did this year and the Pei family's efforts, I feel like I'm breaking out in a cold sweat.
He couldn't lie still anymore, so he sat up suddenly, got out of bed and pulled on his shoes, wanting to send Prince Jin's son back to Tanzhou immediately, but soon he stopped beside the bed and became lost in thought.
He and the Zhang family were the only ones who knew the cause of Queen Pei's death. Even if King Jin wanted to investigate, he would not be able to investigate.
Furthermore, if King Jin really knew that Queen Pei died of being buried alive and at the hands of her father, how could King Jin hold back and not show any trace of her in front of him - not crazy, not stupid, not furious, not questioning?
He sat back on the bed and let out a deep breath, thinking that he was a complete loser. Apart from his desire to compete for wealth, this son should still be firmly in his hands.
Moreover, when King Jin was sent back to Tanzhou, the other two sons were too young, and King Yan was the eldest son. Soon after, there was another Zhang family that made it difficult for him to sleep and eat well.
To put it bluntly, he is the father of the king. So what if the King of Jin knew about it? Could he still kill his father and seize the throne?
What he has to do now is to control the balance between the two children, let them compete with each other for credit, and run court affairs well. In this way, their strength can also be consumed.
Suddenly he became cold-blooded and wise. His son was not a son, but a chess piece and a minister. He was not a father, but a king.
The shadow of death brought by Queen Pei gradually faded away. He figured everything out, breathed a sigh of relief, and cleared his throat: "Wei Qiao."
Wei Qiao had been waiting aside. Seeing that Jinshang was distracted, his face was pale, and he was worried, he hesitated whether to call the imperial doctor. Fortunately, Jinshang regained his consciousness, and he quietly put his uneasiness back into his stomach.
"Your Majesty, you will have a rest today. It's still dark. Can you please sleep a little longer?"
"I'm not going to sleep anymore." I had no intention of running away with Queen Pei in my sleep. "I want to take a shower."
Wei Qiao looked at his words and thought that the washing he was doing was not a small one, so he walked out quietly.
The two doorkeepers immediately pushed open the heavy palace door, and the light in the hall squeezed out from the door, swallowing each other with the darkness outside.
He ordered the people in charge of the hall to get ready for bathing, and then walked back to the hall, where he saw Jin sitting in front of the desk, carefully reading the letter asking for merit.
Today I checked Yin Xiao's name many times, thinking that if this person is available, he will be transferred to Kyoto when he has another military exploit.
A person with no background is the one he wants to use.
As for Su Ting, he can no longer be trusted in the future. Regardless of whether Su Ting has selfish motives or not, King Jin has already started to win over him.
He wanted to find a candidate for commander-in-chief as soon as possible, preferably from the Forbidden Army in Dingzhou.
When King Yan returned to the palace, he saw Zhang Xutang waiting in the front hall of the palace. When he saw Zhang Xutang, he shuddered in his heart - he had seen more of Zhang Xutang's methods now, and then he knew that the Zhang family
What kind of monster did he raise?
Like Zhang Xuling, he is now very afraid of Zhang Xutang. He thinks that Zhang Xutang himself is an evil ghost crawling out of hell and will punish anyone who makes a mistake - sometimes even if he makes no mistake, he will be punished. Zhang Erjie
This demonstrates one's rights and means and deters others who are ready to take action.
King Yan mustered up his courage and sat across from Zhang Xutang. He did not dare to breathe loudly, for fear that if his breath was heavier, Zhang Xutang would become furious.
He was careful enough, but Zhang Xutang still failed to give him a good look: "Has the matter of asking for credit been done?"
King Yan nodded: "It's all done. We will discuss it after the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Zhang Xutang squinted his eyes to look at King Yan. His eyes had recovered, but he often felt uncomfortable and needed to squint to relieve it.
When he didn't squint his eyes, he was already frightening. Once he squinted his eyes, it was even more frightening, as if his mind was already preparing to kill someone.
King Yan leaned back uncomfortably, lowered his head and looked at the tea cup on the table, avoiding his gaze.
Zhang Xutang saw through his cowardice and let him go with a cold smile: "What did King Jin say?"
King Yan quickly said: "The King of Jin is also opposed to it."
Zhang Xutang paused as he picked up the teacup: "Objection?"
King Jin nodded: "Not only did he oppose it, he also won over Su Ting. I thought about it carefully and found that he should have a way to win over Su Ting, so he doesn't want anyone to disturb the situation."
Zhang Xutang frowned: "Tell me carefully, don't miss any details."
King Yan felt that something was wrong from his tone, he lowered his head and recalled, and then started talking from the Wende Palace until he and Yue Zhongtai left.
After he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Xutang's face becoming more and more solemn, and finally revealed a ferocious smile.
Zhang Xutang's face was still the same, but the ferocious smile made his eyes become more vicious, and the light from his eyes shot towards King Yan, making King Yan almost feel that he was an eternal sinner.
"My lord, did I tell you in the note that Yin Xiao would never be allowed to join the Imperial Army?"
King Yan muttered: "I...I objected..."
"I don't want to object, but I want you to do it." Zhang Xutang suppressed his anger and slowly exhaled a long breath.
King Yan was still at a loss: "I did it. I originally wanted him to be the Marquis of Duyu. After I said it, I didn't mention it again."
"Idiot!" Zhang Xutang couldn't hold back, picked up the tea cup, and wanted to smash King Yan's head to see what was in his head. However, he couldn't hit the head, so he could only turn the tea cup in another direction.
, smashed to the ground.
He glared at the chamberlain who rushed in: "Get out!"
The chamberlain retreated in panic. He turned and pointed at King Yan's head: "Stupid! Do you have any brains?"
King Yan was very aggrieved: "Why do I have no brain? What else do you want me to do?"
Zhang Xutang heard that he was confused and had no idea what was going on. He raised his leg and kicked over the chair: "I have told you how many times, I am just suspicious now. I am afraid that you sons will make me feel empty. He
He will become suspicious when he hears that both of you are opposed to Yin Xiao joining the Forbidden Army. When he sees you talking to Su Ting, his suspicion will expand. He will think that you and Su Ting are not clear-cut, and he will be eager to get someone without a backer.
, and Yin Xiao happens to be that person!"
He paced back and forth angrily, gnashing his teeth and cursing: "How come there is such a stupid thing like you in the Zhang family!"
King Yan defended himself weakly: "The King of Jin wants to talk to Su Ting, and he is dragging Dong Tongying along. I can't stop him."
Zhang Xutang walked up to him, took a deep breath, and resisted the urge to hit him: "You can take King Jin away, or you can knock Dong Tongying over. It's better for you to pretend to be drunk than to attack him. As long as you can stop
Prince Jin was joking with Su Ting, it doesn't matter how much noise you make! I can find a way to solve any trouble for you!"
"Trash! Just because you can't handle such a small thing, did my father take your brain with him when he died?"
When Zhang Rui was here, everything was in order. With Zhang Rui blocking the previous dynasty, everything went smoothly. It neither showed the excellence of King Jin nor the stupidity of King Yan. Once Zhang Rui died, everything showed its original appearance.
