Su Jing looked up upon hearing that, and looked at the deputy general who asked the question with a faint smile. The pen in his hand tapped against the desk repeatedly, and it was hard to tell whether he was sad or happy.
"Your Majesty, General Liu has been in the camp outside the capital for many years, and his power has long been deeply rooted. If..."
"Keep him? If you keep him, he will continue to help the tyrant and continue to harm my children. In this life, I only have two children, Ah Man and Jin Xuan, and they assassinated them."
"I promoted you because of your outstanding abilities. I will give you six months to sideline Liu Bingtian. If you need anything, just tell me. I will not read any impeachment memorials from others. Just do it with confidence."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty, but..."
"You also don't have to be afraid in the future. I will burn the impeachment memorials, and the Crown Prince will not be able to access the old files. You should remember what I told you to do when I asked you to go to the camp outside the capital."
The two deputy generals nodded together. At that time, the emperor said that he left them for the prince, and asked them to be neither arrogant nor impatient and study hard.
When the emperor said this, it was the day when the prince was one month old. After that, the emperor never met them in private again. Because they knew their mission, they had always followed the emperor's instructions and studied with Liu Bingtian, so that one day they could become the prince's arms.
Some time ago, the Queen passed away. They thought the Emperor would have other arrangements, so they endured it until now.
"My words are as good as gold. When I said those words, I never thought of regretting them. So, you continue to do your own things."
"I obey your command." Upon hearing this, the two deputy generals kowtowed solemnly. The doubts and entanglements in their hearts that had long been in their hearts disappeared because of the emperor's few words.
"Go ahead. I'm tired." Su Jing looked at them again, and watched their tall backs as they bowed respectfully and turned to leave, with a smile of relief and forbearance on his face.
Ah Man and Su Jingxuan didn't know that in the middle of the night when they were sleeping, their father, the father they were no longer familiar with, was still paving the way for their future. What they knew was that early the next morning, Liu Bingtian went to the palace to plead with the emperor, saying that the assassination in the snow was a complete misunderstanding and that the soldiers were ordered to suppress bandits.
The reason is far-fetched, but because it is carefully embellished, it seems impeccable.
Su Jing's attitude was even more ambiguous. He just said, "I understand."
Liu Bingtian finally felt relieved after a night of worry. What if Princess Jiaoyang didn't want to give up? The emperor had already made a decision on the whole matter.
General Anguo Zhen Yuandao, who breathed a sigh of relief like Liu Bingtian, also breathed a sigh of relief. After Liu Bingtian left the palace, he sent someone to deliver a generous gift, but his gift could not be delivered to General Liu Bingtian's mansion.
After learning about Su Jing's attitude towards the assassination of their siblings, Ah Man was very angry.
She found Murong Kai and asked, "Can someone arrange an assassination?"
"Zhen Junran?"
"No, my father." Ah Man spoke in a low voice, and Murong Kai couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
"You still know that he is your father? When an emperor is assassinated, the people who do it must be assassins."
"May I?"
"You want your father to die?" Murong Kai asked frankly and solemnly.
Ah Man shook her head. Jinxuan was still young, and the government affairs were complicated and she couldn't sort them out. If her father was really dead, Bei'an would be in chaos.
"I just want to let him know that I'm angry and warn him." Ah Man expressed her plan. Murong Kai couldn't help laughing when he saw her. His little girl was really a child at heart. However, it seemed like a good idea to test Su Jing's attitude by assassination.
