"Why is the princess so sure that Prince Ning will hand over Mr. Nangong? The account books that the princess has made, and the officials involved in them, are mostly people who follow the wind. These people may not really be able to help Ning.
King, if King Ning hands over the princess’s account book, wouldn’t the princess’s efforts be in vain?”
Liu Catkin asked.
Zi Xing played with the petals in the water and smiled.
Catkin is indeed smart, but her intelligence has its limitations after all.
In the deep palace, she had no trouble finding ways to obtain benefits and win favor for herself.[
But when it comes to the interests of various forces in the court, as a slave in the palace, she naturally won't think so carefully.
"As you said, most of these people are people who adapt to the changing circumstances. They may not be of much help to him, Prince Ning, now, but they may not be of much help in the future. Besides, with these people in the court, under the influence of my father,
In the face of the situation, even if their advice is not very useful, it can always play a role in resolving it. Just like the matter of Nangong Chao, General Cao testified against him so conclusively, but his father did not dismiss Nangong Chao.
Detain them for investigation, but let them continue to find Ankang. Although I did not see what happened in the court with my own eyes, I can guess that these people must be trying their best to exonerate Nangong Chao. After hesitation, my father said,
That’s why.”
"But when General Cao took Nangong Yu's newly prepared account book and corrected Nangong Chao again, these people all spoke at the same time and pointed their finger at Nangong Chao. You said they were useless, but at the critical moment, they all
It is very useful. Besides, if Nangong Yu hands them all over just to keep Nangong's nest, who else will work for him in the future? Who will believe the promise he made? "
"Then why does the princess need to give Prince Ning a chance to prepare another account book? Can't it be enough to just find a way to hand over the account book made by the princess to the emperor? Wouldn't it be better to remove these officials who are not firm in their stance?" Liu Xu was puzzled.
ask.
"Okay? My father is angry about the Wuqing Reservoir and the people of Xicheng. He has thoroughly investigated the matter and it has been widely implicated. Many people will die by then, but it will give others the opportunity to take advantage of it.
If my father's painstaking efforts for the people are spread to be cruel and killing innocent people, it will only cause harm to my father. That's why I bribed Ankang and let him play such a show. But even if I don't kill him,
Ankang, there will be people who want to kill him. Nangong Chao is not afraid of the floods in Xicheng or the flaws in the Wuqing Reservoir, but people who really enrich themselves will be. Ankang, who knows the details, will not be able to escape sooner or later. "
Zi Xing said, but her face darkened, and she looked quietly at the petals floating on the water, "Liu Catkin, later on, I will burn some paper money for Ankang for me. In the end, my hands are stained with innocence.
Human blood. I said that Ankang will die sooner or later, but I am just looking for an excuse for myself, and I want to make myself feel at ease. But in the end I still can't feel at ease."
"General Dugu will take good care of Ankang's family. The slave girl will also set up a memorial tablet for Ankang in a remote temple so that the monks can save him. The princess does not have to blame herself. If the princess had not made the first move, everyone would have fallen behind.
