Wei Ci's heart surged with warmth.
No matter how slandered by others, at least the person in front of him believed that he was innocent.
This realization filled him with joy all over him.
Jiang Pengji said, "Don't tell me, you died because of this?"
Wei Ci was still not used to it.
Although the vest had already been ripped off by the other party, he always felt strange that the lord accepted him so calmly and mentioned his past life.
That feeling is indescribable.
Really use language to describe, probably similar to -
He talks to his wife about his first love
His Majesty and the lord were clearly the same person, but Wei Ci felt embarrassed and ashamed, as if he had two boats on his own.
"no… "
Wei Ci denied that, although he had thought about seeking death several times in those days, he couldn't bear the guards sent by His Majesty to stare too closely.
"I won't let the same thing happen." Jiang Pengji said, "Wen Zheng had a sincere talk with me. I think he was right. In this matter, there is no shortage of interests, but inequality. If you have ever fallen into such a situation, In an embarrassing situation, it can only be said that 'Jiang Pengji' was too negligent and incompetent, failed to truly balance the water, and gave others reasons to criticize you... If she couldn't protect you, it was her fault... "
Wei Ci said decisively, "No - Your Majesty has done a good job, and Ci has lived up to her arrangements and expectations."
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Wei Ci opened her mouth, her face filled with guilt and self-blame.
"I came back and saw a lot of things - the meteorite's warning, the responsibility should be kind..."
His Majesty in the previous life was not biased, but he was too stupid to see clearly his identity and situation.
Although it was not made public, Wei Ci often slept in the palace at night. What is the relationship between him and His Majesty? Even if the two of them keep a secret, most people don't know, but Qi Guanrang and Feng Zhen and the like will not be able to guess? These counselors are all evil spirits who can walk, and they are all difficult to deal with.
They know but don't tell the truth, they should choose the default.
His Majesty is impartial, and important courtiers have chosen to support by default, which should have been a balanced situation.
Wei Ci did something stupid!
Wei Ci was just woken up by this stupid thing.
The key lies in Wei Shi!
He didn't have a deep relationship with the Wei family, but he didn't break up.
Knowing that the Wei family was down, he also tried to support the family.
Although he was supportive, Wei Ci did not use his personal connections for favoritism. Instead, he let the clan select a lot of malleable talents, and only recommended them to His Majesty after teaching them well. As long as the DPRK and China can rely on it, it is only a matter of time before Wei's prosperity will be prosperous, and he will not touch the excess.
The Wei family has withered because of the war, but the family heritage is still there, and there are many talents.
Just one chance, Wei Shi will return to the ranks of the top aristocratic families.
For a time, Wei's limelight was infinite.
Wei Ci recommended talents for the good of His Majesty. These talents are strictly checked by him and can withstand the test of strong winds and waves.
In the eyes of other noble families, this is not a good sign!
Isn't Wei Ci helping the Wei clan in order to cultivate the power of foreign relatives
When His Majesty dies, will he not support the child with his blood to ascend to the throne and control the government
If there are more conspiracy theories, it is not impossible to kill the young emperor to ascend the throne himself.
No wonder—
No wonder the matter of meteorites involved not only the involvement of major families, but also the figures of the important ministers and confidants whom His Majesty relied on—
From His Majesty's point of view, even the important ministers could not tolerate Wei Ci.
Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke down his back.
[Your Majesty trusts you, let me trust you for once.]
[Wei Zixiao, take care of your hand, don't stretch it too long, otherwise, no wonder you really cut it!]
Others didn't know Jiang Pengji's origin, so they didn't know that the meteorite warning didn't work in front of her.
But if there is another emperor, this big move will continue, not to mention that Wei Ci is going to die, and the Wei family will be buried with him.
Thinking of all this, Wei Ci's face turned pale.
As he was in a trance, someone poked his forehead with a finger, and soon a little red mark appeared.
Wei Ci returned to her body, raised her hand and touched her forehead.
"Recovered?" Jiang Pengji said calmly, "Anyway, everything has passed, just don't repeat the same mistakes."
Wei Ci's heart was full of emotions, and she looked at Jiang Pengji with endless love in her eyes.
"Ci and Wei, there will be no contact in this life." Wei Ci said, "If this oath is violated—"
"I know, you can avoid it if you swear." Jiang Pengji smiled and said, "As long as you remember."
Wei Ci couldn't help swallowing the unfinished words.
Looking back now, he found that many things could actually be avoided, but he didn't notice it when he was in the game.
Just as he was talking, the messenger outside replied.
"Li Xiaowei asks to see the lord."
"Here is Han Mei? Let him in."
Jiang Pengji got up and returned to the main seat, and glanced at Wei Ci regretfully.
In the center of the military camp, a little time alone is precious.
After a while, the tent opened, and I heard the sound of armor rubbing against each other, and Li Yun, who was wearing silver armor, walked in.
"See your lord." Li Yun didn't notice the strange atmosphere in the tent, and said to himself, "There are tribal messengers from the Northern Border twenty miles away from the camp."
"The messenger of the Northern Border tribe?" Jiang Pengji was in a much better mood, with a small smile on her face, "Could it be that you are here to surrender again?"
Li Yun praised, "The lord is like a god, and they are indeed here to submit."
The tribe who surrendered this time is medium in size, with about 8,000 young and strong, and the entire tribe has a population of 15,000.
The overall population of Northern Xinjiang is not very large. If so many people surrendered at one time, if the nobles of Northern Xinjiang knew about it, they would not be distressed to death.
Thinking of this, Li Yun couldn't help but feel relieved.
Jiang Pengji frowned. She did not respond immediately, but instead said to Wei Ci, "Zixiao—"
She called out, Wei Ci seemed to know what she was thinking, got up and took the topographic map of the northern border from the side. These blueprints are all important strategic resources, a few of them were drawn secretly by themselves, and most of them were looted from the contributed tribal territories.
Jiang Pengji opened a piece of parchment and carefully read the contents.
"Zixiao, something is wrong—" Jiang Pengji said, "I couldn't tell what was wrong for a while—"
Rather than what she found, her war instincts told her it wasn't that simple.
"What did the lord find?"
Jiang Pengji said, "Not sure... Hanmei, go and settle those people. I will meet their messengers in person."
Li Yun took the lead, Jiang Pengji looked at the parchment, her eyes flickering slightly.
After an hour, Li Yun brought the tribal messenger to see Jiang Pengji.
When the tribal leader appeared in the military tent, Jiang Pengji's eyes looked at him from head to toe.
Jiang Pengji's attitude was indifferent, and her reaction was confusing.
Someone took the initiative to submit, this should be a happy event, why is she still a little reluctant
