Your Highness, please detour when you see this seat

Si Jiyun was dismissed from his post, and he has no right to interfere in the court's affairs. Now he has almost no rights other than the title of prince.He regularly reads some news from the imperial court sent by his subordinates every day, and is also happy to spend time in the mansion outside the palace.

It's just that his ignorance and haste ruined a group of civil servants who supported him. In just two days, there were no less than ten people who came to his mansion to persuade him. The old man in front of him could only smile wryly and listen attentively.

Kong Ze, after the sage, is now the crown prince and Taifu. He has served as the emperor's teacher for three dynasties. Now he is seventy years old, and he has been in Beique for the rest of his life.

When Si Jiyun was made the crown prince, the Qin family proposed to invite him several times. Si Kou had just ascended the throne, and the country’s political instability needed the support of the Qin family’s forces, and Kong Zede was highly respected. He successively served as the teacher of the previous emperor and the prince. Blocking the mouths of Youyou, he also agreed to the Qin family's proposal.

Kong Ze has the spirit of a literati, and it is late autumn now, and the cool breeze makes his body feel chilly. Even young people would wear a coat over their bodies when they come out, but Kong Ze only wears a thin green shirt. A pair of comfortable gray cloth shoes were on her feet.

"Your Highness, why do you bother to contradict the emperor for a reckless man? Even you can't afford the crime of disobedience."

"Teacher, it's not that Ji Yun disrespected the order, but that he couldn't do it."

Si Jiyun never regarded himself as a prince in front of Kong Ze. Apart from the lineage of the Qin family who mainly supported him in the court, the biggest support was Kong Ze, the emperor of the three dynasties and the power behind him.

Kong Ze's knowledge is profound and his conduct is precious. He has half-teacher friendship with most of the aspiring civil servants in the court, and his disciples are all over the empire. Even Qin Yifan has to practice student etiquette when he sees him.

Although Kong Ze and the literati behind him disdain to be attached to the party and others because of his status as a prince, Kong Ze must repeatedly remind him to be careful when interacting with each other, but the deterrence implied by these people is extremely terrifying.

Civil servants and military generals are far inferior to military generals in the way of governing the country.

"Can't do it?" Kong Ze stared at him with his beard upturned: "You are so reckless, the emperor summoned you and you can't do it. What's the reason? The old minister should listen carefully."

Si Jiyun smiled wryly, his teacher is not very good no matter how old he is, he reads a lot and has a temper: "Teacher, the martial arts and the imperial court have always been separate worlds without interfering with each other. The emperor father summoned Palace Master Mo this time, and the teacher can guess the meaning of it." Come on, when you said that Palace Master Shi Mo should or should not?"

"Of course you should obey the imperial court and serve the country."

"People in the martial arts are mostly rebellious. Who did the teacher ask to lead this group of people? Will these people be willing to listen? How will the court adjust when conflicts break out? Can it be adjusted?"

Seeing that Kong Ze was no longer excited, Si Jiyun smiled and continued: "Teacher, you only see the huge power of this force, but you have never thought about whether the court can control this power. Moreover, once the power of martial arts gets involved in the court, it will be inevitable in the future." Will be involved in the battle for the throne, with the destructive power of these people, how can there be peace in Beique? At that time, the Beique Empire will be destroyed without the invasion of other countries."

Si Jiyun's words were like enlightenment, Kong Ze was so shocked that he could not speak for a long time, he looked deeply at Si Jiyun with excitement in his eyes.

This was the first time that Si Jiyun directly expressed his views on some things in front of him. He thought that the prince was just good-natured, but he didn't expect to have such a mind.

He can't ascend to the throne like this, who else has such qualifications!

Kong Ze stood up tremblingly and bowed deeply to Si Jiyun with tears in his eyes: "Your Highness, the old minister is ashamed. It is the blessing of the court to have a prince like His Highness in Beique! The blessing of the people!"

"Teacher, what are you doing? How can we do such a great gift between you and me!" Si Jiyun hastily dodged to avoid and stepped forward to support Kong Ze: "It's good that the teacher understands Ji Yun."

"Okay." Kong Ze straightened up and looked at Si Jiyun with pride in his eyes, as if he saw the powerful Beique Empire a few years later: "It's just that the emperor is not easy to explain this matter."

"It doesn't matter. At this time, the court is troubled. Yan Rong was killed and there is no progress until now. The two generals Wu Mu and Qi Fei were given to death. The loyal and brave king Yu Wenzhi's wolf ambitions are well known in the court, but due to the danger of the western border, the mutiny is easy to deal with. No. My father’s handling of me at this time is probably due to the imbalance of civil and military forces. I can return to the court only after the generals are reorganized."

"It's good that the prince knows what's in his mind." Speaking of this, Kong Ze suddenly glanced at Si Jiyun and sighed deeply: "You are confused."

Si Jiyun laughed in his heart and said, "Teacher, you might as well speak up if you have something to say."

"Your Highness, do you know that Wen Xiang entered the residence of the Second Highness three times late at night?" Kong Ze said while looking at him and saw that he was not surprised, then continued: "The prince just lost his power and Wen Xiang secretly met with the Second Highness late at night, so he was too impatient."

"Ji Xun and I are both legitimate sons, and Ji Yun is just lucky to be older. Teacher, Ji Xun is not a person greedy for power."

"The prince is wise, and the old minister is too worried." Kong Ze felt relieved. He has a lot of disciples, and he has never seen such a person who served the three dynasties. Si Jiyun's heart is the only one he has ever seen in his life. As a prince of a country, he should be sincere and calculated. Will not be soft.

North Que!people!

A childish and innocent smile gradually became clear, and Kong Ze looked dazed.

The first emperor and first prince, forgive the old minister for his disrespect!

Si Jiyun is the most suitable king of a country, everything is for the people and Beique, even if the old minister dies, he will help him ascend to the throne of God!

Si Jiyun had no idea that the conversation he had with Kong Ze today had allowed him to truly control the huge power of scholars in the world, and the two of them also didn't know that after Kong Ze left the mansion, a figure disappeared instantly.

Mo Wang left Si Jiyun's mansion and came to his own residence. At this time, Situ Ping had already gone to the Bishui Palace in the western region, and some people from the dark hall had also arrived in Kyoto. He originally wanted to investigate some news from Si Jiyun, but he didn't want to hear A conversation between Si Jiyun and Kong Ze.

He was sitting quietly in the room alone, holding a blood jade unicorn in his hand, his cold face was much gentler, his eyes were not as fierce as that day, and he was quite alone without any acquaintances by his side .

After a long while, I saw him holding his right hand in the air, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that had been set aside came flying together, and he quickly wrote a few sentences, then took out a piece of iron-shaped black block from his arms, folded the letterhead and put it together with it.

"Put this object and this letter in Si Jiyun's room, and don't let others find out."

"Yes, Palace Master." The man's dull voice came from outside the door.

Don't think that telling Si Jiyun the secrets of the Nine Dragons Mountains and his suspicion of Yu Wenxiu will also cancel his protection of the two of them in front of Si Kou, and the two may not meet in the future.

But unexpectedly, he misjudged how much Si Jiyun valued him, so Si Jiyun found him early the next morning, but he was restrained by the people in the dark hall and thrown in the living room without moving. If the person who delivered the letter yesterday knew about this Identity, maybe he is not sitting here but lying here at this moment.

Don't be fooled to see him sweeping over to pretend to be wronged, the corner of his mouth twitched invisibly, and waved his hand to untie his restraint: "Are you acting on behalf of Si Kou Xuanzhao?"

"Brother Wang, you know that I didn't come here for this." Si Jiyun rubbed his stiff body and took out what Mo Wang gave him from his sleeve, wondering: "This is really the weapon embryo of the Xitang Empire? Feifei's kung fu is different from that The mysterious person also comes from the Ouyang family, a big family of the Xitang Empire?"

"You don't have to believe it."

"It's not that I don't believe it, but I can't believe it."

Si Jiyun's face straightened: "Yuwen Zhizhi colluded with the Xitang Empire on the throne and undoubtedly sought skin from the tiger. Even if he succeeds in the end, he will only become a puppet of Xitang. Yuwen Zhi can command most of Beique's elite troops for eighteen years." It shouldn’t be so short-sighted, is there something else hidden in it?”

"It's time for His Highness to investigate." Mo Wang ignored his probing gaze and sat down with his sleeves, took a shake of the tea brought by the dark hall, and said indifferently, taking a sip.

Si Jiyun frowned and looked at Mo Wang, this Mo Wang coincided with him when he first met him, strangers should not be indifferent and on guard, a small movement pushed himself out of his world, such an appearance of blowing hair is like this At this moment, Si Jiyun didn't like to see it at all.

Recalling Situ Ping's entrustment before leaving, Si Jiyun couldn't help but feel sorry for Mo Wang. Somehow, his experience caused him to refuse others to approach him so much.

He pulled the chair close to him on purpose, and pressed Mo Wang's hand to please him when he wanted to avoid him, saying, "Brother Wang, you are the real you next to Brother Situ, right? One day, as a brother, you will be able to tell me willingly." own story."

Mo Wang's face was stiff and he twitched a few times, but he couldn't pull out his hand a few times before he broke free with a wisp of finger wind: "Si Jiyun, I don't need to worry about my affairs. If you came for that letter, I will know I have already told you that there is nothing else you can do, and you can leave if there is nothing to do."

"Forget it, let's get back to business." Si Jiyun saw that he was full of precautions and changed the topic with interest: "According to what you said, Yuwenster colluded with the Xitang Empire, but now he returned to the capital alone, leaving only Yuwentang and his wife in the Nine Dragons Mountains." Several confidantes, it is completely unreasonable for him to be so relieved of the Xitang Empire."

"Didn't your Highness discover that there is a mysterious force hidden in the imperial court? Maybe Yuwenster has been used by it. Your Highness, you forgot how you went to the western region alone."

"Brother Lian...do you mean the one that killed Yan Rong? To be precise, the former Lei family army or the people behind Bai Tongwei?" Si Jiyun looked at him with a smile on his handsome eyes. He, don't miss any look on his face.

Mo Wang looked up and Si Jiyun's sensitivity was beyond his imagination: "Si Jiyun, are you belittling the royal family or underestimating the Bishui Palace."

He sneered and said indifferently: "Although I am in the Jianghu, some major affairs of the court are still clear. The Lei family ambushed the former emperor and the former prince 18 years ago. The two lived and died without a leader. The princes competed for the throne and the people are struggling. The current emperor Sending troops to quell the chaos, none of the 380 members of the Lei family were spared from being beheaded in public. Only Bai Tongwei, the general of the fourth army of the Lei family army, defected to the court, and the rest of the soldiers were either exiled or killed. , Didn’t the old department of the Lei family exist in name only? And you know better than anyone how Vice Commander Bai Tong Wei Bai got this position.”

After hearing this, Si Jiyun thought about it, he knew very well the situation of the former Lei Family Army, and indeed he was unable to kill/death a commander of the Forbidden Army in Kyoto, let alone make all civil and military officials agree to go to the west alone.

What about Bai Tongwei?

For some reason, Si Jiyun always felt that things were far from that simple.
