The reason why Wu Zhe didn't rush to urge people to spread the news about the eldest prince's attack on Yuan Healing Palace at night was mainly because he wanted to come out with the emperor's actions. Or wait for a few days, let the eldest prince calm down, and exchange the hostages for some money.
There is no problem with two nine-star masters and a few six-seven-star fighters worth one million taels. Wu Zhe, who has taken a lot of advantages from the eldest prince, has formed a habit of using it, completely treating the eldest prince as a cash machine.
Now, Emperor Xuanwu is angry because of this matter
of course not. This is Wu Zhe's judgment.
But don't act panicked on the surface, but also act as if you are speechless.
So Wu Zhe obediently lowered his head and didn't speak for a while, as if he was anxious to find a reason and couldn't make up words.
Emperor Xuanwu saw her like this, and asked sharply: "The Palace of Yuan Healing is an important place in the Wu Kingdom. Many warriors rely on Yuan Qi to heal after being injured, and they must not be attacked by thieves."
Wu Zhe was not panicked at all.
Not to mention that the public security issue of Yuan Healing Palace is not Wu Zhe's responsibility, even if he did not report it to the emperor, it is not Wu Zhe's responsibility. Then there is still the Master of Yuan Healing Palace carrying it, so Wu Zhe can't be blamed.
So there is only one simplest explanation, that is, Emperor Xuanwu wanted to show her his prestige.
Nine times out of ten, Emperor Xuanwu brought himself with him when he planned to make a surprise attack, and beat him appropriately in advance to prevent arrogance and mistakes at critical moments.
In fact, in the final analysis, is it because you, Emperor Xuanwu, don't have enough confidence in surprise attacks? Wu Zhe secretly smiled. Otherwise, why would he go to such lengths to beat and beat a female military division? This kind of beating is better to say to cheer yourself up.
Wu Zhe said calmly, "This subordinate was impatient when he was young, so he questioned recklessly. The culprit has already confessed some sensational things. Because the inside story is important, and he is afraid that the culprit will make false accusations, he dare not report to the emperor."
"The inside story is that these thieves were sent by the eldest prince?" Emperor Xuanwu said solemnly.
"The emperor is holy." The guards at the foot of Wu Zhe Xindaoyuan Healing Hall really have the emperor's eyes and ears, which is not unexpected at all.
Emperor Xuanwu lightly tapped his hand on the table, as if he was torturing him: "Since the thief insists that it was the eldest prince who sent him, even if he doesn't report it to me, he should report it to the clan's residence."
Wu Zhe hesitated for a moment, and did not say what he speculated that Emperor Xuanwu wanted to harm the eldest prince.
After all, although superiors like smart courtiers, they don't like strategists who can see through themselves like lines on their palms.
Simply using the method of self-defilement, Wu Zhe made up his mind, and said bluntly: "Report to the emperor. This question is really... I am a little embarrassed."
"Why are you embarrassed?"
"Because according to what those thieves said, their purpose is not to disturb and harm Yuan Healing Palace, but to loot the minister."
When Princess Qing heard this, she raised her brows immediately. Obviously guessing what the eldest prince wanted to do, he got angry, and a wave of anger rose in his heart.
Emperor Xuanwu deliberately paused, then laughed and said: "You mean that the eldest prince wants to take you away?"
"That's right." Wu Zhe said with a smile, "I don't want to think about it, and I still think it's quite embarrassing."
"If this is true, he should be the one who is ashamed!" Emperor Xuanwu laughed even louder.
I don't know how much of this laughter is true or not, Wu Zhe complained.
The emperor smiled and said, "Zhou Zhiruo. If Prince Mo hadn't sent you Mang Lao, would you have really been taken away by the people sent by the eldest prince?"
"Your majesty is a wise man, and you can discern every detail." Wu Zhe said, "It may be from the emperor's blood, so Prince Mo was able to think of this in advance, which shows that he is extremely clever."
"Then how smart are you?" Emperor Xuanwu asked with a smile.
Princess Qing looked at her father fearfully. It's a pity that he didn't dare to go to the front, so he could only look at Wu Zhe with concern.
But Wu Zhe didn't even raise his eyelids, he just lowered his head and said slowly, "I can be as smart as the emperor wants me to be."
Emperor Xuanwu laughed: "Really?"
"In front of the emperor. Who dares to lie?"
"Then tell me, if you are stupid, what should you do?"
"If you're stupid, that's how it is now. When the thieves come to take you captive, beat the culprits away and arrest them."
"Oh? Is this stupid?" Emperor Xuanwu sounded new. Princess Qing next to her also felt fresh, as if this is what a normal person should do, right
"If you're smart, let the thieves take you there on purpose. Then you see the real master..." Wu Zhe took the initiative to continue, but paused here again.
"So what if you see the real master?" Emperor Xuanwu asked curiously.
Wu Zhe's face turned cold, and he waved his hand and said, "One size fits all, clean and tidy!"
Emperor Xuanwu's face darkened.
Of course it's not angry, but hearing this handling method. It really hurts all men.
Emperor Xuanwu was not surprised that Zhou Zhiruo was able to know the vitals of a man. After all, she who cultivates vitality and understands medical skills naturally understands the condition of the human body, even a man will dabble in the books.
But this thought of daring to cut the man without hesitation really made the man cry when he heard it.
Especially when the imaginary enemy the girl cut with a knife was her eldest son, Emperor Xuanwu felt a little bit more sympathetic with the sadness.
Princess Qing beside her blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.
Wu Zhe, on the other hand, had a calm face, as if what he wanted to do was justified.
Emperor Xuanwu quickly returned to normal, and had to smile wryly: "Girl, your move is quite clever. It is indeed something a smart person should do."
Princess Qing's expression softened when she heard Emperor Xuanwu's "gimmick". She knew that this was a title that Emperor Xuanwu would only say when he was in a good mood.
"The emperor's absurd praise. The humble minister speaks out loud and is extremely terrified." Wu Zhe bowed.
Emperor Xuanwu smiled and said: "You girl dare to use the eldest prince as a subject of swords and swords in front of me, and you still have the face to say that you are afraid?"
Wu Zhe said with a chuckle: "The humble minister is also helpless. But if he is smart, he must make this decision as an aide."
"Extremely. You are a prince who hurt his vitals because he kidnapped his daughter, so it is impossible for him to covet the throne. As Mo'er's aide, you should act like this, and it can even be evaluated as the best policy."
"Your majesty is holy." Wu Zhe whispered for no reason, in fact, I learned from the protagonist of "The Alternate Saint".
After chatting for a few words, Emperor Xuanwu suddenly said: "I called you this time to let you watch a good show."
Emperor Xuanwu stood up and drove Xiao Tingxuan. Wu Zhe and Princess Qing followed.
At the end of time, Emperor Xuanwu put down the dragon seat on the highest platform of Xiao Ting Xuan. Seats were also arranged for Wu Zhe and Princess Qing.
Wu Zhe was curious, what excitement would Emperor Xuanwu want him to watch? (To be continued..)
