Zhao Kai's eyes narrowed slightly, obviously a little shocked, but then he quickly relaxed and said with a smile: "Since I want to invite Mr. Xu, I naturally can't hide it from you. Yes, Gu Zheng has this intention."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Fengsui, Liu Mu, and Mo Lu couldn't help but be shocked. The position of the prince is no small matter, and usurping the prince is tantamount to usurping the throne. They didn't expect that Zhao Kai would have such ambitions, let alone that he would have no idea at all. Tell the truth in disguise.
Xu Zizhen didn't look surprised at all. He still looked at Zhao Kai with a smile and said: "Your Majesty, do you want to hear my opinion?"
Zhao Kai nodded and said with a gentle expression: "Please enlighten me."
Xu Zizhen's smile gradually faded, and he sighed softly: "Stop it, my lord, you have never been destined to be an emperor in this life. If you continue to be so stubborn, your ending will not be much better."
Zhao Kai's expression did not change, he shook his head and said: "Wen Chengyan said that you are a natural psychic, and Li Qianshun of Xixia respected you as a semi-immortal. Naturally, I also believe that Xu Gongzi's words must be foresight, but... ... I still believe in four words, that is - everything depends on man-made efforts!"
His tone was not serious, and his expression was not serious, but his words expressed a sense of persistence. At the same time, his eyes were fixed on Xu Zizhen. It was obvious that if Xu Zizhen did not agree to him again, his patience would be exhausted. exhausted.
Xu Zizhen suddenly smiled again and said: "Okay, I admire the prince's resilience, but that doesn't stop me from despising your method of winning over people. Do you have to use this coercive method?"
Zhao Kai said calmly: "Everyone in the world is interested in profit, but Gu thinks that this benefit is not the benefit of profit, but the benefit of interests. People cannot have absolute loyalty, but what Gu wants are people who are loyal to Gu. Therefore, this is what we have to do.”
Xu Zizhen smiled and clapped his hands and said, "That makes sense. I agree with you. Let me guess again, how do you plan to force the crown prince to give up the throne?" He pretended to ponder for a moment and said, "First of all, you will Raise a lot of dead soldiers, and then send them around to do big things that can stir up chaos, such as sending my second brother to Xixia... Of course there are other people who will be killed by you, and then the world will be in chaos one after another. , such as internal strife, such as conquests, our Song Dynasty is already in turmoil. If you continue to add fuel to the fire, the current emperor will feel his head is as big as a bucket, let alone His Highness the Crown Prince who has not yet ascended the throne. At that time, the emperor will be under great pressure. When you reach a certain level, you will definitely find a punching bag, and the prince is naturally the first choice."
At this point, he paused and said with a half-smile: "If I'm not wrong, after creating a series of chaos, I'm afraid it's time for the prince to target your brothers? For example, assassination, frame-up or other means , and then seize all those who have power, and those who have soldiers, seize the soldiers. By then, you will naturally be the sole leader in the court. Apart from you, your Majesty, there will be no one else to pass on the throne. I don’t know. Is your guess correct or incorrect? Your Highness, Prince Yun."
What they said made Zhao Kai and Mo Jingxia stunned. After a long while, Zhao Kai came back to his senses, looked at Xu Zizhen, and suddenly laughed and said: "Hahaha! You are indeed worthy of being Mr. Xu, Xu Banxian, I don't know you. Whether it was a guess or an idea, what you just said is almost exactly the same as Gu's plan."
Xu Zizhen secretly curled his lips, these nonsense were written in a book eight hundred years later, what's so strange about it.
Zhao Kai seemed to be very happy, smiling all the time, but the taste of his smile changed, his face darkened, and his eyes gradually grew colder.
"Hmph! You also said that the Song Dynasty is in turmoil now, but how many people in the court today really care about the world? Don't talk about others, just talk about that good-for-nothing Zhao Huan, who only cares about having fun all day long.
He is no different from the father-in-law, so how come he can take the position of prince, but he cannot?"
Xu Zizhen sneered and said: "Your Majesty, everyone can say nice things. You keep saying that you care about the world, but can you guarantee that after you become the prince or even a great treasure, you can make the people live and work in peace and contentment? Can you make the world peaceful and stop wars?"
Zhao Kai didn't answer, but stared at him coldly: "You have worn out the last bit of Gu's patience. Now Gu just asks you, will you answer or not?"
Xu Zizhen raised his eyelids and said calmly: "What if I don't agree?"
Zhao Kai said: "That guy can only let you sleep forever."
"Speaking of literature and art, isn't it just a matter of silence?" Xu Zizhen sneered, "But my lord, let me advise you, if you don't want others to know, you can't hide what you have done unless you do nothing yourself."
Zhao Kai sneered: "There are only a few of us here, so if I kill you, no one will know about it."
Xu Zizhen looked at him with a half-smile: "Oh? Are you sure?"
Zhao Kai's expression changed slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
Xu Zizhen yawned: "It means we don't want to play anymore." After saying that, he raised his head and snapped his fingers at the night sky beside him.
Zhao Kai and Mo Jingxia were in a state of confusion when a delicate and delicate figure suddenly appeared on a big tree not far away. In a flash, he landed next to Xu Zizhen. He raised his head and showed a charming and innocent smile to Mo Jingxia.
: "Mo Zuo, are you alright?"
Mo Jingxia was shocked and asked as if he had seen a ghost: "You...why are you here?"
Zhao Kai reached out and took out the sword from his waist, and asked alertly: "Mr. Mo, who is this?"
Before Mo Jingxia could answer, the girl had already said with a smile: "You ask me? My surname is Xiao, my name is Nongyu, and I used to be the deputy head of Sanjue Hall."
Zhao Kai's face began to change, because as smart as he was, he had already guessed that something was amiss today. Xiao Nongyu ignored him and took out a few pills and gave them to Xu Zizhen and others. The look on his face was clearly that of Zhao Kai.
I don't pay attention to regular script.
Xu Zizhen didn't stand up after taking the medicine. He still sat on the ground and said with a smile: "My lord, are you thinking that it doesn't matter even if my second brother and I recover? Anyway, this is your territory. It's best for me to die here."
, if I escape, he will be wanted, right?"
Zhao Kai sneered and said, "It's good if you know. Gu advises you to just follow Gu's wishes."
Xu Zizhen said with a smile: "I'm still saying that, buddy, I won't play anymore, and..." He suddenly coughed seriously, turned and lay on the ground, "I am a timid person, and I am most afraid of wanted people, so what?
Please, His Majesty the Crown Prince, clear my name!"
Zhao Kai and Mo Jingxia had not yet reacted, but they saw that the door of one of the side rooms next to the cave was suddenly opened from the inside, and several figures slowly walked out. The first one was about thirty years old, with a white face and a slight beard.
He was quite magnanimous, but his eyes were full of anger.
There were three more people following closely behind, one was wearing a gorgeous dress and wearing a hat, the other was a handsome and elegant person with a sneer, and the last one was a beautiful woman with beautiful face.
After Zhao Kai saw the faces of these people clearly, he was suddenly struck by lightning. His face turned pale and his eyes were dull as he stood there.
Xu Zizhen secretly winked at Liu Fengsui, Xiao Nongyu and others, making them fall to the ground, and then shouted loudly: "Xu Zizhen pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince! Meets His Highness Prince Kang, and pays homage to His Highness Prince Xin!"
