"The real culprit?" The emperor opened his mouth and wanted to say, isn't the real culprit Gu Fenglin and Mu Yunhan causing trouble?
Isn’t it the prince and the princess who are causing trouble behind the scenes?
As long as it can be proven that it was Mu Yunhan who caused the trouble, it has nothing to do with him or Qi State, and he won't have to be roasted on the fire.
But the emperor only thought this way.
Because Gu Fenglin's identity is too special.
He also couldn't imagine what it would be like if the priest openly opposed him and went against him.
So he took a deep breath and asked, "Priest, what did you say?"
Only then did Gu Fenglin stand up calmly: "Your Majesty, there is someone behind this matter who is planning a conspiracy. I have clues. Please give me three days, and I will definitely explain it to you."
The emperor looked at him without saying anything, still thinking about the resentment of being betrayed.
Gu Fenglin didn't care what his mood was, and said: "I'm afraid no one has told your Majesty the details of what happened last night. I would like to inform your Majesty first."
The emperor didn't want to hear it: "Why am I listening to that? If you have to listen to everything in detail, what will I do to you?"
There is no way to wake up a person who is pretending to sleep.
However, Gu Fenglin just didn't want him to sleep.
Gu Fenglin looked at Meng Xiang: "Then, why don't I and Meng Xiang explain in detail."
This is a bold move.
After all, everyone knows that Meng Xiang and Gu Fenglin have been at odds for a long time.
Generally speaking, at this moment, Meng Xiang should be laughing at his misfortune, rather than helping him.
So everyone stared at Meng Xiang.
Meng Xiang stared at Gu Fenglin.
Gu Fenglin's eyes were clear.
Yes, he and Prime Minister Meng did have different political opinions, but their goals were the same.
I don’t want Zhao to perish.
And what happened last night can no longer be easily fooled.
Meng Xiang said calmly: "You say it, I listen."
The emperor couldn't believe his ears. He was furious, but also knew that he couldn't do it, so he sneered: "That's fine."
Gu Fenglin explained what happened last night in a clear and concise manner.
The key point is to explain that it is easier to unite people's hearts by accusing the people of Qi of conspiring to cause chaos than to avoid Qi and embarrass Mu Yunhan.
Meng Xiang said aggressively: "So, Master Priest, do you think it is better to fight now or make peace?"
Gu Fenglin smiled slightly: "If the country is not strong enough, of course it is necessary to make peace, recuperate and strengthen, and then make other plans."
The emperor liked to hear this: "Expedient measure?"
Gu Fenglin said without hesitation: "As an expedient, we can shout loudly and make some noise, and then the big things will be reduced to small things, and the trivial things will be reduced to a smooth transition.
But if public anger is aroused and public sentiment is lost, not only will the external situation be uneasy, but internal chaos will also occur, and that will be a big trouble."
This is exactly the political view of Prime Minister Meng.
Meng Xiang looked at Gu Fenglin in silence, analyzing the authenticity of his attitude.
The emperor turned his anger into joy: "You should have told me earlier!"
After saying that, he regretted that he had exposed his true colors and coughed: "Then you can't make your own decisions!"
His tone and attitude were much softer than before.
When Jiang Shichao saw it, he couldn't help but become very anxious. This topic was going astray.
It’s about how to investigate and deal with the rebellion between Mu Yunhan and Yaoshantang, and how did it end up like this?
This priest is really shameless. He changes whenever he wants and becomes soft whenever he wants.
He immediately shouted loudly: "Your Majesty! Gu Fenglin has ulterior motives! As a priest, he knew that there was trouble last night, but he didn't warn him!" (To be continued)
