His face was pale and haggard, like a thin piece of snow that would melt at any time in the thin morning light. "What do you think, sir?"
Zhao Wufu said sonorously and forcefully: "I am willing to fight to the death for His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the King of Qin!"
The taciturn Guan Zikuan said: "General Zhao is now one of the four auxiliary ministers. It is not suitable to leave the capital to fight. The minister recommends Liang Ziyi, the left minister of the Ministry of War, as the commander to attack the rebels!"
He asked lightly: "In this case, Zhao and Guan are both leading the battle. What does Lord Zhou think?"
Fatty Zhou pondered for a while, then lowered his eyes and said: "Our army has lost ten cities in a row, and its morale is low. However, the rebels are very powerful. Our army is gradually becoming invincible. I thought it would be better to...send envoys to negotiate peace..."
His eyes were as sharp as a sharp cold sword: "Negotiation for peace? Does Mr. Zhou want me to hand over the power of regent and beg for mercy from the thief Xue Xu? Or do you want your majesty to follow the example of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty, kill me, and retreat from the southwest rebels?"
Fatty Zhou knelt down in panic: "Wei Chen has no such intention!"
He smiled coldly: "I don't understand, what does Mr. Zhou mean?"
Fatty Zhou wiped the cold sweat from his head and said, "I think that Your Highness might as well issue an edict to punish yourself, and then put that male favorite... to death... for the time being..."
The concoction was dark, like a piece of ink jade, and filled with steaming white air. I picked up the clear white jade bowl, and with a smile as bright as an enchanting lotus flower on my lips, I walked into his spacious study room.
Fatty Zhou glanced at me with disdain and advised: "Your Highness, with this humble body, I can solve the world's crisis. Why wouldn't you do this?"
He looked at me, the light in his eyes was flowing, and the smile on his lips was as soft as the sun: "The country is as picturesque as Bai Qing's smile is like a flower. I would rather subvert the world than let Bai Qing down!"
The sky was bright and bright, and the morning glow in the distance was as bright as a piece of luxurious brocade. There was a vigorous joy in my heart, just like the lotus flowers all over the lake blooming in front of my eyes in early summer. I gently held his warm hand, filled with joy.
But laugh.
Fatty Zhou is used to following the wind and saying: "The humble minister made a mistake..."
"It's okay," he lowered his long eyelashes slightly and frowned slightly while looking at the dark concoction, "Why don't Master Cui say anything today?"
With a bang, old man Cui knelt on the ground and cried: "Your Highness, Xue Xu ignored the late emperor's edict and rebelled against his superiors. He was a traitor. Previously, my old minister was dim-sighted and mistakenly saw Xue Xu as a traitor! I regretted my mistake and advocated a battle!"
He slowly let go of my hand and said, "Since three of the four auxiliaries are in charge of the battle, I will personally conquer the southwest!"
With his wide sleeves trailing to the ground, he stood up and stood by the window. A ray of golden sunlight shrouded his body, bright and solemn.
Guan Zikuan hesitated: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin is the regent and is in charge of the government affairs. How can he make such a move?"
Fatty Zhou said calmly: "Since the four of us are assisting the government, it is our duty to take care of the government. Your Highness can go there with peace of mind."
Zhao Wufu sneered: "Zhou Heng, as a relative, you want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power?"
Fatty Zhou's face fell in half: "Mr. Zhao, you...you..."
Zhao Wufu's peach blossom eyes squinted: "You recommended Li Xiu as the emperor's master. Unexpectedly, he actually intended to force our emperor to abolish the regent power of His Highness King Qin. Your wishful thinking has come true. Once His Highness's regent power is removed, your body will be destroyed."
As the ancestor of our emperor, you can suddenly become the leader of the four assistants..."
Fatty Zhou immediately turned pale: "You..."
Old Man Cui waved his hand to stop him and asked in a deep voice: "During His Majesty's expedition, who among the four of us will be the chief assistant? Who will make the decision in case of major events?"
His laughter sounded as broad and distant as the clear sky: "Xue Shaoluo, King of Jin."
[The lady is coming]
Note: ① During the reign of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty, Chao Cuo, the imperial censor, proposed to Emperor Jing to cut down the vassals, which infringed on the interests of the vassal kings. The seven vassal states launched a rebellion in the name of "Execute Chao Cuo and clear the emperor's side", which was called the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms".
In order to quell the rebellion, Emperor Jing had no choice but to kill Chao Cuo, but the rebellion did not stop.
