Chapter 337 [The Way of the King] (Part 1) is the Array Alliance
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's a long way to Dakang, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. If I want to ensure that the princess remains intact, I need to borrow something from Your Majesty."
Xue Shengkang said: "Shi Kuan, go and prepare a good cold jade coffin immediately, and then get the Bingpo Calming Bead and send it to Qichen Palace immediately." Putting the Bingpo Calming Bead into the mouth of the corpse can ensure that the body is
It will not rot for a hundred days, and the cold jade coffin is carved from the thousand-year-old cold jade that is a specialty of Dayong Ice and Snow City. It is used to store corpses. It can last for hundreds of years and its appearance will still be lifelike. Both of these two things are priceless treasures.
Xue Shengkang gave it to Hu Xiaotian without hesitation, not only out of gratitude to him for relieving his illness, but also out of guilt for the assassination of Princess Anping.
"yes!"
Seeing that Xue Shengkang was so happy, Hu Xiaotian not only agreed to give them the Bingpo Calm Bead, but also gave them a cold jade coffin. He felt a little more fond of the Emperor Yong, and said: "Xiaotian also has a request.
, I implore your majesty to find out the real culprit as soon as possible and bring him to justice, so that my princess can rest in peace..." At this point, his eye circles turned red again, and Hu Xiaotian was now completely into the drama, raising his hands and feet, knowing what to do.
The proportions are just right, even Xue Shengkang's ability can't see his flaws.
Xue Shengkang said: "You don't have to worry. Princess Anping is not only the princess of Dakang, but also my unmarried daughter-in-law. Whoever dares to assassinate Yongdu is against me. Even if I dig up the ground of Yongdu for three days,
Ruler, we must also find the killer."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"When do you plan to escort the princess's body back?"
"Of course, the sooner the better!" Hu Xiaotian was also worried about long nights and dreams. According to his plan, it would be best to leave Yongdu now, but the reality is in front of him. Everything must be settled properly before he can leave, and it will be tomorrow morning at the earliest.
Xue Shengkang said: "I will arrange everything for you along the way, and I will also send someone to escort you back to Dakang."
Since Xue Shengkang agreed to all his requests, Hu Xiaotian couldn't pretend to be stupid. After all, they invited him here not just to comfort him, but for follow-up consultation. Hu Xiaotian checked Xue Shengkang's incision. The emperor's recovery speed can be said to be...
Very quickly, the incision was completely healed in just two days.
Hu Xiaotian helped Xue Shengkang remove the sutures. After doing this, he did not stay in the palace. He immediately bid farewell to Xue Shengkang and went with Shi Kuan to get the cold jade coffin and the ice soul calming beads.
Xue Lingjun did not choose to leave with Hu Xiaotian. She still had something to say to the emperor in private.
Xue Shengkang said: "I haven't gone out for two days. My dear sister, why don't you accompany me for a walk outside."
Xue Lingjun nodded and accompanied him to leave the Qinzheng Palace and came to the small garden at the back. The garden was not big and the palace walls were high and wide. Standing in it felt cramped. Xue Shengkang clasped his hands behind his hands and looked at the gloomy sky above his head.
In the sky, his mood was also depressed. He took a deep breath and expanded his lungs as much as possible. Then he exhaled a long turbid breath. The feeling of stuffiness was slightly relieved, and he whispered: "You
What do you think?"
Xue Lingjun said: "When I went to Qichen Palace, I encountered Dao Ming arresting Huo Shengnan and her men. Dao Ming seemed very sad and wanted to personally investigate the assassination of Long Xiyue."
Xue Shengkang didn't speak, and held his hands together behind his back.
Xue Lingjun said: "Huo Shengnan is Yu Chichong's goddaughter after all, and she is deeply loved by the queen mother."
Xue Shengkang said: "Yu Chichong should have got the news by now. Do you think he will come forward to plead with me?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Probably not. Instead, the Queen Mother may intervene."
Xue Shengkang said: "What would you do if it were me?"
Xue Lingjun smiled and said: "I am not the emperor, so I don't know what the emperor would do."
Xue Shengkang said: "Just now Shi Kuan said in front of me that the matter in Qichen Palace must be investigated as soon as possible. Guess how I responded to him?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Actually, finding out the truth of the matter may not be what the emperor wants to see."
Xue Shengkang nodded and said, "I think so too." He walked to the pool, looked at the numerous fish swimming in the pool, and whispered, "Do you know why I agreed to this marriage?"
Xue Lingjun shook his head.
Xue Shengkang said: "The marriage with Dakang was proposed by the queen. How could I not know what she had in mind? Concubine Shu had always wanted Dao Ming to marry Xiang Liren's youngest daughter. The reason why I didn't agree was because
It's because the influence of the Dong family and the Xiang family in Dayong is very important. If they are allowed to marry, each other's power will definitely rise to a higher level. I don't want to see such a situation. Although Princess Anping is the princess of Dakang,
, but now Dakang is already dying, and she, the imperial sister, has long lost her former glory. Concubine Shu thinks that Daoming will not get any benefits from this marriage, because this matter has been made many times in front of me
.”
Xue Lingjun said: "Daoming has always been the pride of her heart. If she loves you to the extreme, she will inevitably do some irrational things." Her words have a clear meaning, obviously implying that the assassination of Qi Chen Gong is likely to be related to the assassination.
Related to Concubine Shu.
Xue Shengkang smiled and said: "Is there any mother in the world who doesn't love her children? She loves her children deeply! Once they fall in love deeply, they will inevitably be trapped by love. Who can stay awake?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Brother Emperor, why didn't you settle the prince's affairs earlier?"
Xue Shengkang nodded and said: "Originally I thought it was too early, but after this illness, my thoughts have changed a lot."
Xue Lingjun said: "Who does the emperor like more?"
Xue Shengkang said: "Who can take over my position has nothing to do with who I like more. Which child I like is due to my personal feelings in my heart. But this country is not my own, but the ancestors.
The achievements built with blood and sweat, I have no right to pass the throne to anyone based on my heart's preference. The person who can hold the throne must have the ability to command the ministers of Dayong, and must have perseverance and determination, as well as the ambition and ambition to unify the Central Plains.
." He turned to Xue Lingjun and said: "In your opinion, among my sons, who is more qualified to take over my position?"
Xue Lingjun said: "Brother Huang is like a dragon or a phoenix among men. With all due respect, among my nephews, most of them have outstanding minds and wisdom, but when it comes to their mind, none of them can compare to Brother Huang."
Xue Shengkang nodded and said: "You are always the one who understands my thoughts best. A successful emperor does not need a superior mind, nor does he need to be brave enough to defeat the three armies. What he really needs is a mind. Only with a lofty mind can you have a long-term vision.
, an emperor should know what things can be tolerated and what things cannot be changed. He should know who can be used and who must be kept away. The way of a king is actually the way of using people. No matter how outstanding a person's wisdom is, it can't be compared to a group of people.
No matter how powerful a person is in martial arts, he will only be helpless among the thousands of armies."
Xue Lingjun said: "Since the emperor said this, he must have his own standards in his heart."
Xue Shengkang said: "Actually, I was most optimistic about Dao Ming, but his performance in this marriage has greatly disappointed me. How can an emperor who can truly achieve great things put his hopes on others?
?The mentality of counting on a marriage and relying on the strength of other people to achieve great things is unacceptable!"
Xue Lingjun nodded.
Xue Shengkang said: "Since I came to the throne, I have always been committed to appointing any minister based on his talent and ignoring other things. The relationship between me and my ministers is like doing business. They give me loyalty, and I
Give them power and wealth, and let them understand that I can give them to them, and I can also take away everything they have at any time."
A series of dull thunders rolled past in the distant sky, and the wind seemed to be much stronger than before. Xue Shengkang said: "Daoming wants to strengthen his strength in the matter of marriage. If he can marry Xiang Liren's daughter, then he will become
The possibility of becoming a prince has increased. With Xiang Liren's influence in the court, he will definitely be able to gather more support for him. But he did not expect one thing. If a monarch relies too much on a certain minister,
, will only make this minister feel arrogant, and no one will be an exception. A successful monarch should make his ministers feel that they are important, but by no means indispensable."
Xue Lingjun looked at the emperor's brother with admiration. The emperor's brother was eclectic and unique in the way he employed people. This was the foundation for Dayong to maintain rapid development after he ascended the throne.
Xue Shengkang said: "Daohong is mature and sophisticated in dealing with people. Although his talent is not as good as Dao Ming, I can see his efforts. He can get along with all the civil and military officials in the court. Most of the outstanding figures among the younger generation of Dayong are
Became his best friend."
Xue Lingjun said: "Daohong already has three points of the emperor's spirit in employing people."
Xue Shengkang slowly shook his head and said: "You and your ministers must never be friends!"
A bolt of lightning, like a golden snake, twisted and tore through the thick sky, illuminating Xue Shengkang's face brightly, and a cold reflection shot out from his deep eyes.
Xue Lingjun bit his lip and wanted to say something, but in the end he still couldn't.
Xue Shengkang sighed and said: "Lingjun, actually you should know how lonely and lonely my brother is in his heart..."
The rain finally started to fall, hitting the pool, creating ripples in circles, and then quickly became dense, blurring the outline of the palace, the vegetation, and trees. Xue Shengkang raised his head, and his eyes passed through the layers of rain.
Through the thick clouds, it seems that there is a giant green dragon circling and flying in the sky. Heaven is about to entrust this man with a great responsibility. His ambition has not yet been realized. In his lifetime, he will surely march south and unify the Central Plains!
