Chapter 1173: Cold Heart

At this time, Zhao saw the king of Chu directly pointing the finger at him, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He knew that in the fire not long ago, although the king of Chu already knew his role in it, because he did not show obvious flaws, perhaps he did not have obvious evidence of illegal rebellion, and it was also because the king of Chu needed to appease the nobles.

Therefore, last time, the king of Chu not only did not punish him, but also rewarded him a lot to appease everyone.

However, in the past few days, the obvious estrangement of the king of Chu from him has already shown that the king of Chu is already very dissatisfied with him in his heart, but he has not yet broken out.

Perhaps, as long as he makes a slight mistake in the future, then he will face the thunderous wrath of the King of Chu.

And this time, the nobles in the country were exterminated by the people, which not only directly slapped the king of Chu in the face, but also made the king of Chu lose face. Moreover, the nobles' writing was the same, which also made the king of Chu think that this time it was the nobles who united to put pressure on him.

There is no doubt that this kind of action of changing the soup without changing the medicine directly made the king of Chu think that he was the leader of this operation again.

However, Zhao Chang himself knew that he was too wronged this time.

The matter of Yin Ling has nothing to do with him, and even when he learned about Yin Ling, he learned from the mouth of King Chu when the King of Chu summoned his ministers.

And the matter of the nobles jointly writing the book, he was even more wronged.

He had only invited the nobles to the banquet before, ventilated the nobles who had befriended him in advance, and decided to plant this matter on the head of Zhao Guo.

As a result, when he woke up, the nobleman's letter had already arrived in Yingdu.

However, just this made the king of Chu think that he was the main messenger behind this matter.

This... This shows that the King of Chu's patience with him has basically been exhausted.

Perhaps, after this incident, what greeted him and his family was the anger of the king of Chu.

And once this happens, then he and his family will be completely reduced to the margins of the Chu State, and his power will no longer exist, and his status will no longer exist.

By this time, he had no way out.

Thinking about it, Zhao Chang's heart moved, and then immediately showed a sad face, and said with a long bow of sorrow:

"The king, the minister is wronged, although the minister and the Yin Ling Jun are against each other, but the minister has always abided by the law of the country, and he has no intention of assassinating the Yin Ling Jun at all. Moreover, Yinling is located on the south bank of Huaishui, and it takes more than 20 days to send people from Yingdu to Yinling by land, and it also takes six or seven days to take by water.

If this is done by the ministers, then the people sent by the ministers must be by water. However, in the current situation, the news from Si Yu is much clearer than the minister's own argument.

According to the report of the defeat, from the beginning of the deprivation of the title of Yinling Jun, ten days later, because of the king's sacrifice to the Black Emperor, not only did no nobles send people to Jianghuai on the Yingdu side, but even the ranks of merchants rarely went to Jiangdong.

The king, this undoubtedly means that this matter has nothing to do with the minister.

Please also see the king! ”

After speaking, Zhao Chang immediately bowed to the ground, unwilling to get up.

At this time, some of the ministers who were friendly with Zhao Chang also nodded, they knew that the countermeasures that Zhao Chang initially discussed with them were different from the plans of the nobles in various places, and there was no rumor about this matter at the beginning.

All of these indicate that the starting point of this matter is not in Yingdu, but elsewhere.

on the throne.

Xiong Huai saw that what Zhao often said was reasonable and well-founded, which not only convinced the minister, but also made many ministers sympathize with his miserable behavior.

Seeing this, Xiong Huai smiled in his heart, but he didn't intend to let Zhao Chang go.

"Zuo Yin, since you said that this matter has nothing to do with you, who did it? It can't really be a sudden riot of the people, and then wipe out the Yin Ling Yin clan! ”

"This..." Zhao Chang let out a long breath when he heard this, although this was the king forcing him to express it, but he also had the idea of opening his mouth.

So, he immediately got up and responded: "King Mingjian, the minister also thinks that the matter of Yinling is definitely not a sudden rebellion of the people. As a nobleman, although Yin Xin is very harsh to the people, the people will never rebel collectively knowing that the king treats people with kindness, which proves that there must be an extremely powerful force pushing it.

Otherwise, without the guidance and incitement of external forces, the people will at most flee and become thieves, and will not riot. ”

Xiong Huai nodded: "Zuo Yin is reasonable, although all the nobles from all over the country wrote that it was a riot by the people, but the widow didn't think so.

From the return of the Yin Tomb to the people's riot, it was only three days, which was too fast. Moreover, Yinling has obviously been released to the people, and the people have also passed the most difficult time, at this moment, what reason do the people have to riot? ”

Speaking of this, Xiong Huai looked at the ministers and directly characterized this matter: "Therefore, the widow thinks that there must be someone behind the matter of Yinling, not just a riot of the people." Now, the nobles everywhere are blaming all the blame on the people who have been missing, which is simply absurd, and there is no distinction between priority and priority.

Therefore, the widow will never accept such a result, and the Yin Ling Yin clan cannot die so unclear. ”

On the other side, Zhao saw that the result he gave was completely different from that of the nobles, and the King of Chu immediately took his eyes off him, and suddenly let out a long breath.

This feeling of being stared at by the King of Chu is like being stared at by a fierce beast, and it is terrifying and very bad.

Fortunately, now the king of Chu has turned his attention away.

Then, Zhao Chang settled down, and after the king of Chu finished speaking, he immediately saw the needle and said: "King, since the minister learned about the Yin Tomb, he has been thinking about who is the murderer behind it for the past few days.

Now, after a few days of thinking, the minister has a clear vision in his heart. ”

"Oh!" Xiong Huai was stunned, looked at Zhao Chang curiously, and said: "Zuo Yin, let's talk about it, who is the real murderer behind the scenes!" ”

"Great King, the minister thinks that it must be Zhao Guo who is pushing Yin Ling behind it."

"Zhao Guo..." As soon as Zhao Chang's voice fell, some ministers in the palace immediately began to discuss in a low voice.

At this time, Xiong Huai also looked at Zhao Chang hesitantly and asked, "Zuo Yin, Zhao Guonai is our ally, why does Qing think that Zhao Guo did it?" ”

"The King." Zhao Chang arched his hand and said: "When the incident of Yin Ling happened, it was when the king was traveling to the Heavenly Palace, and at this time, the ministers and nobles of my Chu State were basically praying for the king outside the Black Emperor Temple, and the news that Si was defeated and sent back, there were no ships of the noble caravan going to Huaishui through the river during that time period. Therefore, the minister thought that this thing could never be done by someone in my Chu country.

And if it wasn't done by someone from my Chu State, who would have pushed it? ”

Zhao Chang asked loudly, and then asked himself: "King, the minister thinks that the country that did this is the Zhao State nine times out of ten!" ”

Xiong Huai couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Zhao Guo did it? Zuo Yin, do you think that the widow is confused, why did Zhao Guo target Yinling, even if Zhao Guo knew that the widow punished Yinling Jun, and when the news of Yingdu came back to Zhao State, it would take half a month at the earliest.

As for the Yinling tragedy, on the tenth day after the widow punished the Yinling Jun, in such a short period of time, Qing thought that Zhao Guo had done it. ”

Saying that, Xiong Huai's face turned cold: "In the main hall, Zuo Yin don't make such jokes." ”
