Chapter 340 A thorn in the side, a thorn in the flesh
Chapter 340 A thorn in the flesh
Zhao Xuanji looked at Li Yinhu calmly, waited for him to finish speaking sincerely, and then slowly said after a long time: "Let's act according to the situation."
Li Yinhu suddenly came into contact with the Long family, which resulted in retaliation from the East Palace. This was indeed not a good thing in Zhao Xuanji's opinion.
But it's not that bad.
Li Yinhu has no foundation and can only rely on himself, but who dares to say that King Zhao must be as gentle and courteous as he appears?
Others could not see that if Zhao Xuanji had not seen any clues and taken no precautions, then he would not have been able to control the government for such a long time.
Having said that, although this matter is difficult, it is not entirely a bad thing.
At least Zhao Xuanji could see that the King Zhao he supported still had his own thoughts.
But the method was a little immature after all, and things got messed up.
Since something went wrong, you need to step in and end it yourself.
It was also a good time to give King Zhao a beating. Without his own support, he could not do anything.
There was silence between the two of them for a while, each with their own thoughts.
Li Yinhu has deeply hidden his most ruthless and vicious side. Who dares to say that Zhao Xuanji's current contempt for him was not intentional on his part?
How could a King Zhao who dared to plan the assassination of the crown prince be so shallow?
At this time, there was another person who arrived late.
His appearance suddenly made the originally calm atmosphere outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony tense.
Chief Envoy of Xishan Province, Zhao Heshan!
Zhao Heshan, who was dressed in court uniform, was in a hurry, and there were many signs of fatigue on his body, so he obviously came here in a hurry.
Zhao Heshan strode in with an expressionless face, attracting everyone's attention.
With a quick glance, Zhao Heshan came to Zhao Xuanji and Li Yinhu, cupped his hands and said, "My lower official, Zhao Heshan, has met King Zhao and the Chief Assistant."
Li Yinhu's eyes were calm and he didn't say anything. He just nodded in response.
Zhao Xuanji said with a smile on his face, "Master Zhao is here too."
The two people, who were half the age difference, were related by blood, and had grievances intertwined with each other, appeared together again in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony after many years.
Zhao Heshan's expression was neither humble nor arrogant, and he said: "Such a big thing happened in Xishan Province. His Highness specially asked the official to return to the capital immediately to report on his duties. The official did not dare to neglect. He traveled under the stars and night, and finally caught up."
Zhao Xuanji said calmly: "The situation in Xishan Province is already in chaos. The imperial court has been very involved in beating Mr. Zhao. Now there is such a big mess. Has Mr. Zhao thought about how to explain it?"
Zhao Heshan said calmly: "As a low-ranking official, I only want to have a clear conscience, a clear conscience, a clear conscience for those above me, and a clear conscience for all the people."
These four are unashamed, as if they were told to Zhao Xuanji on purpose.
Zhao Xuanji stared at Zhao Shanhe and sneered: "Okay, okay, Mr. Zhao, you are not ashamed, then those in the court who participated in you and accused you of being violent are also guilty."
"Justice lies in the heart of the people." Zhao Shanhe's answer was sonorous and powerful.
The others were silent, not daring to interrupt.
Zhao Xuanji was extremely angry.
Zhao Heshan was a junior he valued, and he had personally guided and trained him for so many years. In the end, due to political differences, the deepening conflicts caused them to part ways and turn against each other. But now Zhao Heshan was found by the prince and had a chance to make a comeback.
And now Zhao Heshan, who was wearing the official uniform of the chief envoy and standing in front of him with his head held high and his chest high, shouting about justice and freedom of the people, seemed to Zhao Xuanji to be a thorn in his side, a thorn in his flesh, and it was difficult to calm down his anger without killing him.
