Liu laughed reluctantly, said something else to Zhao Xi, and coaxed Zhao Xi to wash.

But when they were sleeping on the same bed at night, when the bright light outside the tent fell on Zhao Xi's face with the mottled pattern of five blessings and longevity, Liu shivered and felt that the bedroom was quiet and terrible.

Of course, Zhao Xi didn't know what Liu was thinking.

The next day, he got off the court and called Wang Jidao to speak in the imperial study room.

"I heard that those Japanese pirates rest in winter and rob on the shore in summer." He said slowly, "Marty Jinghai insisted on mourning for his first wife. I went to his mansion yesterday, thinking about whether to take the love, but Marty Jinghai said that Cai has gone, and now even Jiantong born to Cai has gone, he feels unhappy. I was thinking, if those Japanese pirates really go ashore, they have to find someone to take over. Do you think you should find one from Marty Jinghai's brothers? Or do you recommend one first? But I think, no matter which one it is, Marty Jinghai has to agree. After all, it is a matter of temporary command."

Wang Jidao was stunned when he heard this.

Can this military power be temporarily commanded?

What does the emperor mean?

Find one from the brothers of Jinghai Hou. Is this going to make the brothers turn against each other?

Is it recommended one from the court to encourage others to seize Zhao Xiao's military power?

The emperor used to trust Zhao Xiao the most. He believed whatever Zhao Xiao said. In the blink of an eye, the emperor expressed his intention to weaken Zhao Xiao’s military power!

However, the emperor was young after all, and his methods were so simple and crude. As the emperor said, it would only arouse Zhao Xiao's disgust.

But this is also an opportunity.

If the emperor could make him feel unfaithful and destined to fight with the people from Jingyang Academy from now on.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that he heard the whispers of the minor officials a few days ago.

Wang Jidao's heart moved.

If it is really as rumored that Empress Dowager Han’s death is inseparable from the emperor and Zhao Xiao, the two of them may really turn against this matter!

Did Zhao Xiao instigate the emperor to kill Empress Dowager Han? Or did the emperor kill Empress Dowager Han and Zhao Xiao help the aftermath?

Wang Jidao couldn't help but squint his eyes.

You know, he is Zhao Xi's teacher. If Zhao Xi even dared to kill his legitimate mother... how could he respect and take care of him after he retired?

If Empress Dowager Han’s death is related to Zhao Xiao.

Is Zhao Xiao trying to control the emperor?

Then he has to help Zhao Xi deal with Zhao Xiao!

Zhao Xiao cannot be allowed to hold the emperor to be called the prince!

Wang Jidao thought about it and decided to discuss it with Su Peiwen later.

No, I shouldn't have looked for Su Peiwen.

Su Peiwen has only thought about how to make money in the past two years, and has no concern for the imperial court and the country. If you want to talk about your arms, Li Yao is more reliable, including Zuo Yiming, who are all people who do practical things.

Although he had disagreements with Li Yao, this matter was related to Zhao Xi's reputation and the situation in the court. With Li Yao's personality, he would definitely cooperate with him.

Wang Jidao thought, and felt a little calm in his heart. He sent Zhao Xi away and hurriedly left the palace.

On the side of the capital, King Jian was getting angry about the rumors he had spread.

Prince Jian has no image in front of his father.

He sat on the chair of the Grand Master and murmured: "Li Qian doesn't let him go, what can I do? Besides, this is related to the emperor after all, and you have no evidence. If any villain had passed this incident into the emperor's ears in order to curry favor with the emperor, the emperor would definitely not let you go."

"What do you know?" King Jian was completely disappointed with his son. He even felt that it was a waste of scolding him. After saying a few words such as "Even if Zhao Xi knows it, so what? He can still run to the north to catch me." He drove his son aside, leaving only his daughter to speak.

"What do you mean?" he said, "Do you think I'm troublesome?"

If his daughter also thinks he is troublesome, he will leave.

He doesn't want to be annoying either!

Although Han Tongxin is his granddaughter, her surname is "Han".

He has his own granddaughter, and he is also very obedient and filial.

Princess Dongyang said nothing, and knelt in front of her father with a "thump" and said with tears in her eyes: "Dad, if you don't help me, who else can I ask for?"

As long as you have a daughter, that's fine!

King Jian signaled his daughter to get up and sighed, "Then the matter will be settled like this. I can't do anything to Zhao Xiao, and I will force him to stand up!"

Princess Dongyang thanked her father repeatedly.

The father and daughter said something for a long time before Princess Dongyang said goodbye.

Unexpectedly, an assassin broke out in Prince Jian’s mansion in the middle of the night that day.

This has not happened for many years!

In the eyes of the people in the capital, it is like watching a play.

The lights of Prince Jian’s mansion were brightly lit, and the neighbors were all wearing clothes and stood in the yard watching the fun.

The Five City Military Commander was Cao Xuan's commander. Li Qian did not doubt the use of people, but did not doubt people. He handed over the daily defenses of the capital to Cao Xuan, and then Cao Xuan had the final say, as long as there was no accident in the capital.

Therefore, Cao Xuan changed his previous habit of not going to the yamen to order Mao. He was also a man. Seeing Li Qian's military service on the battlefield, he was majestic and developed a bit of a man's blood. In the past two years, he made the five cities military personnel look like the Beijing guards, and drew maps of the capital, requiring everyone in the military personnel to recite the paintings. He also recruited a large number of rangers to establish a contract to serve in the yamen, promising that if they worked for twenty years, they could either return to their hometown or become a ninth-rank official, or officially become a constable of the five cities military personnel.

You should know that such minor officials and constables are usually hereditary.

In other words, they can whitewash their identities and be good people.

For a time, there were many experts under Cao Xuan's sect. Today, there were almost no trace of the capital.

Li Qian admired this very much, and even talked about this with Jiang Xian and joked with Cao Xuan: "This is the Dragon Boat Festival, the children don't have to take a bunch of guards to the street to enjoy the lanterns!"

Cao Xuan proudly raised his jaw and said, "We can make a bet!"

Very confident in this.

Therefore, as soon as Prince Jian started to make trouble, the nearby street patrol constable rushed over. In just half an hour, several assassins from Prince Jian's mansion were captured alive.

King Jian had already been stabbed on his shoulder with a sword, but his blood was flowing but his life was not in danger. However, the one who served him and his bedroom that day was pushed by King Jian at the critical moment and blocked his sword. He swallowed before the doctor could come.

The assassination of the imperial court officials was also the most prominent prince in the royal family, and the influence was very bad.

This is the first time this dynasty has founded.

Cao Xuan and Li Qian were both alarmed, and they rushed to Prince Jian’s mansion one after another.

At this time, the assassin had been tied into rice dumplings by the detectives. The white silk stuffed in his mouth to prevent them from biting their tongues and threw it into the yard outside King Jian’s hall. He was watched by the guard holding a torch in his hand. The prefect Shuntian condolenced King Jian with white cloth wrapped on his shoulders with sweat.

Seeing Li Qian and Cao Xuan walking in side by side, King Jian, who was as heavy as water, shouted without hesitation: "There is an assassin in the capital! This must have been sent by the emperor! He wants to kill someone to silence him!"
