Chapter 157 Talk in the boat today!
"Boatman, can your boat go far?"
"You're asking interestingly, haha... where are you going? That, you are holding your own wife?"
"This...is right."
"What does it mean? If it's your wife, then I'll let you get on the boat! If not, then leave quickly!"
“Yes, yes.”
"Look! Haha... Little brother, I could tell at a glance that this girl was wearing a man's clothes. No need to say it, she must have come to you secretly with her home on her back, right? Come on, come up, think about the past, old man, I'm also... "
"Thank you, the boatman."
Old Man Huang doesn't like others to say that he is old the most, but he himself says that he is okay. On the surface of the Jinling River, although his boat is not the largest, it is not the smallest. In short, it's still okay to run a long distance or something.
I remember that I was young and romantic back then, and there was also a rich lady who liked us, but the rich lady's feet were too small and didn't run with us.
As a result, I was just driving the boat on this big river, but it wasn't all the same...
Today, at night, I saw a pair of interesting people. The man was holding a woman, and there was no other boat at the moment. Forget it, Old Man Huang can do a good thing and let them get up.
only……
"Chiefman, how much does it cost to go to Western Shu?"
"Little brother, that's at least a hundred taels of silver."
"Okay, I only have silver notes here, can I collect them?"
"Of course, haha...will the ship be opened tomorrow?"
“The faster the better.”
"Come on! You're not afraid at night. No one in our craftsmanship can attract a second one."
Old Man Huang's ship left the shore like this. The boat said it was big or small, but for only one hundred taels of silver... Old Man Huang really knows how to do business.
These two people are naturally the prince of Liang, Wu Bucheng, and Princess Qinghe, Zhao Mengyao.
"Is this ship okay?"
"hehe……"
Wu Bucheng still hugged Zhao Mengyao and waited to enter the cabin before he put the person down. The cabin was not as good as it was. Although it was not as luxurious as it was, it was better because it was clean, and the cost was still fine.
However, Zhao Mengyao's face was gray, but she still smiled and said, "Can you say it now?"
Wu Bucheng sat in front of her, feeling the boat and offshore floating on the river, "Actually, you can really take a break."
"Nothing." Zhao Mengyao smiled again and then said, "If you don't say anything, you must be someone who doesn't know."
"This..." When Wu Bucheng mentioned the word "sleep", he blushed again.
Zhao Mengyao stopped talking nonsense and said, "I planned the matter today, and there are many doubts. You must be wondering. I have told you all here.
First, I didn’t kill Zhao Yan. You must know this. I caught this brother Wang that day. I really hope to give you a big gift. I don’t need to kill him, so…”
"Zeng Qiu is not your person." Wu Bucheng added.
"Haha..." Zhao Mengyao smiled, "Of course, how could a great master like Zeng Qiu be my person? Although I really want to win over it, it is obvious that Zeng Qiu has his own plans."
"That's..." Wu Bucheng wanted to know this very much, because this should explain what Zeng Qiu did and some mysteries on King Lu.
Zhao Mengyao knew what he was thinking when he saw Wu Bucheng's face and said, "Okay, I'm just guessing, but probably it should be that if King Lu wants to make a relative with Zeng Qiu, it is obvious that he wants to win over this expert neighbor. King Lu's fief is in Qilu, and Zeng Qiu is in Penglai. After the two sides get along, even if it is a battle for the world in the future, martial arts figures like Zeng Qiu will not play a decisive role, and it will also make the land of Qilu much more stable. This is much better than the King Lu more than 40 years ago."
Wu Bucheng naturally knew about this, so he nodded, but what happened?
Zhao Mengyao smiled and said, "But people are all greedy and selfish. How can Zhao Yan marry Zeng Qianqian? Of course, he can't be the official concubine. Moreover, Zhao Yan is not a formal king, he is just a prince. Then, Zeng Qianqian is just a concubine.
Zeng Qiu, the iron palm shakes the five mountains, ranks fourth in the world, but is actually the third master. Such a person, his only child is just a concubine of a prince?
Even if this prince is a good prince, where can Zeng Qiu put his face?"
"That's not going to kill Zhao Yan, right?" Wu Bucheng just couldn't understand this.
But Zhao Mengyao smiled again, "You used to be a monk, but even though you have changed a lot now, sometimes you still haven't figured out the hearts of people.
Just say that it is not enough to kill, isn’t it really not enough?
What would happen if Zeng Qiu killed Zhao Yan? Didn’t you, the Prince of Liang, know about you at that time?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Bucheng understood immediately.
At that time, the world was in chaos, and the Wu family and the Zhao family were about to have a bloody battle!
Since King Lu wins Zeng Qiu for the sake of his future world, then should he wait for the chaos of the Great Qi country to become chaotic? At least he would have to wait for the death of the current emperor to have a chance.
So, if the Prince of Liang killed Prince Lu, the Zhao family and the Wu family did not hold back their anger and started fighting directly, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?
Zeng Qiu didn't have to marry his daughter to form an alliance with King Lu. King Lu had the intention to win over. Moreover, the world was so turbulent that King Lu was in a hurry, and he agreed to Zeng Qiu without any conditions.
This iron palm shocked the Five Mountains. For the sake of the ranking of the world, he could fight Wang Yinyang regardless of life and death. Now it is just a safer adventure.
But next...
"I understand." Wu Bucheng said: "There is no chaos in the world. If Zeng Qiu killed Zhao Yan, this is a huge handle that fell into the hands of King Lu. Anyway, I can guess that King Lu is such a smart person, so naturally he can think of who killed his son."
"So smart, I deserve to be my man." Zhao Mengyao praised.
Wu Bucheng blushed a little, "You have seen these things long ago."
Zhao Mengyao continued to smile and said, "Actually, this change was something Zeng Qiu didn't expect. He never expected that Grandpa Emperor would endure it to this point, nor did he expect that the Wu family would restrain their attitude. It is said that King Liang sent a letter to Grandpa Emperor, which said that many of your good character were said by others. You may not understand it, but it is also simple. When a person is praised by everyone and he says he is a good person, then, even if he really kills people, many people will not believe that he is the murderer. It's that simple."
"Oh..." After hearing this, Wu Bucheng felt a little strange, as if... his father was also a peerless and smart person, and he actually thought of such a trick.
My father is so smart, what about my dead second uncle?
Is it me the only one who is really stupid?
Thinking of this, Wu Bucheng was a little depressed...
But Zhao Mengyao ignored him and continued, "But when this incident came out, I thought that Grandpa Huang would definitely settle the matter, because today, some things have not been successful, and our Zhao family and your Wu family cannot fight. If we really fight, our Zhao family will definitely lose."
When Wu Bucheng heard this, he was a little surprised and said, "Why, my father and grandpa have been patient?"
Since Zhao Mengyao said that the Wu family would win, then, he is as smart as King Liang and has 100,000 elite soldiers in his hands, why don’t he just turn against him?
Wu Bucheng knew some of the despicable means Zhao Qianyuan had used to the Wu family, so how could he tolerate it?
Zhao Mengyao smiled and said, "This is because, in fact, what happened today and my entire plan have a lot to do with this reason, that is... listen well.
Great righteousness!”
Two words, meaning.
Wu Bucheng didn't understand very well, so he shook his head.
"The righteousness is in the Zhao family." Zhao Mengyao smiled and said, "Today, after all, it is the Zhao family. Not to mention anything else, civil officials, Confucian scholars, and people all know that the Zhao family is the lord of the world. The Zhao family follows the will of heaven and governs all people. This is natural and righteousness.
I once heard that the old prince Wu Dali had many opportunities to fight back then, and many generals of the Wu family army persuaded him, but in the end, the king did not agree.
The reason is this great thing!”
"Isn't that the old story of Cao A's concealment?" Wu Bucheng still knew some historical materials.
"Of course, there was Cao Aman, but after that? Who did usurp the throne and become a great cause?" Zhao Mengyao continued: "In fact, the most important thing is that Confucianism has become unparalleled. Confucian scholars all over the world know to respect the great righteousness and respect the Zhao family. Even if they were the kings one by one, they had Cao Aman's ability, Cao Aman's ambition, and his ruthlessness, there was nothing they could do. At this time, the great righteousness became even stronger. Confucian scholars all over the world looked down on the old prince Wu at all, so it was right not to rebel back then."
Wu Bucheng finally understood, that...
"That's right, it's also for the sake of justice. What I plan now is based on this point, so I planned a good show to assassinate the imperial envoy. In this place, in Jinling, on the banks of the Qinhuai River, whether it is the season or location, and all the people from all walks of life are gone."
this……
"Wait a minute!" Wu Bucheng didn't understand anything again, "You are planning to assassinate the imperial envoy? You are going to kill Tang Xianglong? Then why did Zeng Qiu kill Tang Xianglong but you were stuck in the middle?"
Yes, Wu Bucheng is right, isn’t this very contradictory?
"Hahaha..." Zhao Mengyao laughed loudly, and coughed a few times during that time. It was obvious that she was laughing too hard.
"You, don't be anxious." Wu Bucheng didn't know what to say.
Zhao Mengyao continued, "I planned the assassination, but I didn't say I wanted to kill Tang Sheng and Tang Xianglong."
This statement seems to make sense, but it seems to make people unable to understand.
