Although Yu Wenhao was still angry, after hearing what the chief assistant said, he believed him, his anger subsided a little, and he sat down again, "Then you believe me?"
The first assistant stretched out his hand to press his heart, "You can only believe it, I am also afraid of guilt."
Yu Wenhao craned his neck and swallowed, "This matter must be kept secret. We are investigating privately and must not let anyone know about it, otherwise it will be endless."
"It must be kept secret!" Chu Shoufu said sternly.
If Ah Xi knew that the daughter of the Chu family was entangled with the prince, he would not look at it well.
Yu Wenhao narrowed his eyes, remembering Mr. Hongye's warm smiling face, and slapped the table again, "Hongye must have set up a trap to frame me. He didn't know where he found a person with the same appearance and height as me.
No wonder he said he would give me a big gift, this despicable villain."
"Hongye is highly suspicious. Hongye should be the one behind the whole setup." The first assistant said calmly, "It's a pity that he didn't leave any traces. Even if he knew, there is no evidence against him."
Yu Wenhao felt cold in his heart, "Hongye wants to set up a plot in Beitang. If no one helps him, it will be difficult to succeed. The person who helps him must be a superior person. I work hard all day long, but I have to guard against day and night, and it is difficult to guard against domestic thieves.
"
"Who do you suspect?" Chu Shoufu asked.
Yu Wenhao said: "When Hong Ye was in the capital, I had people keeping an eye on him. He had contact with Lao Si. I asked Lao Si. Although he swore to heaven that he had never had any interests with Hong Ye, Hong Ye
This man is not without a treasure. Since he has spotted the fourth child and has gained nothing from him, he will not believe it even if he kills me."
"Reasonable doubt."
Yu Wenhao slowly calmed down, "I even suspect that the Xianbei people's plan to deal with the Great Zhou Dynasty is just a pretense. Their ultimate goal is to deal with the Northern Tang Dynasty. The Great Zhou Dynasty is full of talents, the court is harmonious, and there is no struggle for the throne.
Condensed into a powerful force, how easy is it for Xianbei to encroach? On the other hand, in the Northern Tang Dynasty, how many people really serve the court? Before the title of prince was determined, the court was divided into parties and factions, and everyone had their own calculations.
Once the hearts of these people are scattered, it will not take a day or two to unite them. Hongye is probably already operating in our Northern Tang territory, and will not break into the capital until the time is right. If the fourth child really colludes with him, his people will be in Beijing.
It’s easy to stand firm in the middle.”
"And..." Yu Wenhao's eyes burst out with fire, "I remember when I asked the fourth child, he said that Hongye once revealed that he didn't care whether Xianbei lost to Dazhou. Now think about it, this possibility
It's huge. If you didn't plan to start a war with Dazhou from the beginning to the end, how could you lose to Dazhou? That's why Hongye said so lightly that he didn't care."
Chu Shoufu was startled, "Hongye really said that?"
"What Lao Si reported is true or false, I don't know."
Chu Shoufu said playfully: "That would be thought-provoking."
Yu Wenhao pressed his fists, "Hongye is the illegitimate son of General Honglie of Xianbei. Honglie has controlled the Xianbei government for many years, and the emperor is just his puppet. Honglie has devoted himself to cultivating his son to rise to power over the years, but Hongye has always been outside.
It seems that he is not very important, so I suspect that there is another possibility. Hongye and his son are not of the same mind. Honglie may be aiming at the Great Zhou Dynasty, but Hongye foresees that the Great Zhou Dynasty will defeat Xianbei, so he started his activities in the Northern Tang Dynasty. If
To put it more boldly, the ultimate goal of Hong Ye’s activities in Dazhou is to have Dazhou deal with Hong Lie and hit Xianbei hard."
Chu Shoufu looked at him and said nothing for a long time.
Yu Wenhao raised his head and asked: "What's wrong? Is what I said wrong?"
Chu Shoufu shook his head and said softly: "Your Highness's guess is very reasonable and well-founded. Your Highness has indeed grown up."
Unfortunately, as he just said, the hearts of the people in Northern Tang Dynasty have been scattered for a long time. To unite them, it cannot be done by His Highness in a day or two. With his own strength, even if he is exhausted, he cannot prevent the flood of ambition.
