The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 756

[Chapter 756 The thoughts of the martial artists]

Emperor Chu was sitting on the dragon throne. After calming down, he began to meditate.

He pondered why Fang Xiu suddenly showed his sharpness, and what gave him such confidence.

However, for a moment, he was unpredictable.

Could it be that he went crazy again?

It always feels unrealistic.

Moreover, who gave him the confidence?

Just because he controlled the imperial army, eunuchs, and maids in the palace, he dared to be so bold?

He doesn’t seem to be such a person.

The Emperor of Chu pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision, and told Liu Chengdao: “Let the British Duke come to see me!”

The British Duke is in charge of the pro-military mansion, and it is self-evident for the purpose of asking the British Duke to see him.

After Liu Cheng heard this, he did not answer and just remained silent.

When Emperor Chu saw no response for a long time, he turned to look at him.

Then I saw Liu Cheng’s expression was very strange, as if he was hesitating.

“What’s wrong? Could it be that you don’t listen to me anymore?”

When Emperor Chu said this, his brows furrowed tightly.

In the entire Chu Kingdom, or in other words, above the court and within the palace, except for some people in the harem, there were only two people he truly trusted.

One is Fang Xiu, who is no longer trustworthy.

The other one is Liu Cheng.

He couldn’t imagine Liu Chengdu betraying him.

In that case, he wouldn’t know what to say.

After all, Liu Cheng has been by his side for decades and has been working diligently, and they are very familiar with each other.

To say that he would betray, Emperor Chu couldn’t even find a suitable reason.

Why would he betray himself.

Emperor Chu gave him everything he could have.

Is there anyone in Liu Cheng’s family? If he is alone, he can be said to be the shadow, eyes and ears of the Emperor of Chu.

How could Fang Xiu bribe such a person?

Facts have proved that Liu Cheng did not betray Emperor Chu.

Because in what follows, it becomes clear that his words are true.

“Your Majesty, I will tell you the truth. During this time, the British Duke often went in and out of the Fang Mansion, often staying for several hours. No one knew what he was talking about with the Marquis of Xin’an in the Fang Mansion.

And the people who are close to the Military Mansion The Secret Service, I have sent people to ask several times, but I have not received any response.

Your Majesty also knows that the letter from the Secret Service has not been sent to the palace for a long time.

Therefore, I feel that it is not necessary for your Majesty. That’s it.”

After saying this, Emperor Chu fell completely silent.

He stared blankly at everything he had smashed in front of him, and sat on the dragon chair without speaking for a long time.

He didn’t know what to say, he didn’t even know what he was thinking.

I just feel like my brain is blank, there is nothing left.

Fang Xiu,

you are even more powerful than I imagined!

However, I have one thing that I can’t figure out. The British princes have always been loyal and loyal, why would they join in the same deeds with you? ?

Emperor Chu thought of this and couldn’t help it. He raised his eyes to Liu Cheng and asked, “Why is the British Duke like this?”

Liu Cheng obviously knew something, but he didn’t dare to say it. He just lowered his head, for fear of saying The truth was told, which irritated His Majesty.

When Emperor Chu saw this scene, he took a deep breath and said calmly: “Just tell me the truth. It’s okay for me, and I won’t blame you. Just tell me.” When

Liu Cheng heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said Tell the truth.

“Your Majesty, in recent years, the royal family has indeed become a little indifferent to the military heroes.” When

Emperor Chu heard this, his face showed anger, he slapped the table and cursed: “Fame, fame and wealth, which one do I lack?”

The four princes have been loyal to me for generations, but three of them betrayed me. What did I do to make them so disgusted?”

Liu Cheng explained hurriedly: “Your Majesty treated them really well

.

It’s not bad, but the two princes are not like that.”

Emperor Chu looked at Liu Cheng, as if he understood something, and said coldly: “Continue!”

Liu Cheng paused, and then he dared to continue: “According to the slave. As you know, when the two princes were fighting for the right to inherit the throne, Wu Xun was involved in the dispute. This was the first time in hundreds of years that

many Wu Xun, especially the powerful princes, were helpless .

You left Kyoto Mansion and went to your hometown to avoid the limelight.

Your Majesty, you should have known that, but you did not stop it and allowed the two princes to do this.”

Emperor Chu was stunned when he heard this.

He remembered.

Just a year ago.

It seems that is indeed the case.

Fang Xiu’s father, the Marquis of Linze, who was still Uncle Anping at that time, hid in Qingzhou because of this matter.

At that time, Liu Cheng seemed to have mentioned this matter to him, but he didn’t take it to heart. He just replied that he knew it and didn’t ask any more questions.

Unexpectedly, it actually laid the root of today’s disaster!

Emperor Chu couldn’t help but regret when he thought of this.

But it was too late to regret.

At the same time, he knew deeply.

The British Duke betrayed the royal family, but it could not be because of this incident.

This incident will indeed chill the warriors, but it is not to the point of making them betray the royal family!

“Keep talking!” Emperor Chu looked at Liu Cheng and waved his hand.

After hearing Emperor Chu’s instructions, Liu Cheng continued: “At that time, everyone in the martial arts was in danger, fearing that they would be involved in the struggle for the inheritance. They were walking on thin ice and facing an abyss all day long, and they were even more frightened than the scholar-bureaucrats.

Your Majesty, you know that those Wu Xuns are straight-minded and have relatively simple ideas. How could they have such ability if they were allowed to deal with the two princes and scholar-bureaucrats?”

He paused and continued: “Later, gradually. Some Wu Xun chose the people they supported. The Duke of Wei chose His Highness Prince Ning, the Duke of England chose His Highness Prince Kang, and Duke

Ding Guo looked rough, but his thoughts were more delicate than anyone else’s, and they dealt with both sides.

In the end, he didn’t choose a side.

As you know the outcome, the Duke of Wei was exterminated and his house was confiscated. His Highness Prince Ning’s whereabouts were unknown.

It stands to reason that His Highness Prince Kang won a great victory. In

addition

, there are those martial arts who support His Highness King Kang.

However

, His Highness King Kang ignores these martial arts, thinking that since King Ning has been defeated, these martial arts are of no use. The British Duke, His Highness Prince Kang

,

also looked down upon him.

If

he were a servant, he would definitely feel chilled if he saw His Highness Prince Kang like this.

When the words “Xin’an Hou’” came out, Emperor Chu’s brows wrinkled visibly.

Liu Cheng hurriedly changed his words and said: “No, it’s Fang Xiu. In addition, Fang Xiu and the young prince did some things in Kyoto and expressed some attitudes.

Those military honors are naturally towards Fang Xiu.

After all, Fang Xiu is He was born in Wu Xun, and there was no one around him

like His Highness Prince Ning and Prince Kang.

Therefore, they did this.”

Liu Cheng didn’t say the following words, but Emperor Chu understood it very well!

It’s totally understandable that they do this!
