Zhao Xin found himself transmigrated into a novel, becoming the great villain, a delusional tyrant. This tyrant was obsessed with wine and women, lingering in the imperial harem and never attending...
As a time traveler, the difference between Zhao Xin and Liu Muzhi and others is that he has a clearer understanding of human nature and human heart.
Looking back at thousands of years of Chinese history, he understood one thing very well, that is, people's hearts cannot become cold. Once people's hearts become cold, the so-called moral integrity and integrity will become a joke.
As an emperor, he can be scolded and hated by people, but he cannot make people feel cold-hearted.
If Feng Zhong was really killed by the Cui family, it would certainly arouse great indignation among the people against the Cui family. But if the emperor could not do anything in this process, I am afraid the people would also be disappointed, right?
Besides, the passionate people are dead, the sentimental people are dead, so who are left?
Although Liu Muzhi and others are very smart and have many clever strategies, if it comes to politics and governance, even if Zhao Xin is a time traveler, he doesn't think he can definitely beat any of them.
But when it comes to vision and broad-mindedness, Zhao Xin confidently declares, "I'm not talking about any one of you, I'm saying that everyone here is trash."
Because in this regard, Zhao Xin is standing on the shoulders of countless wise men in later generations.
Therefore, Feng Zhong must be saved, even if it means having to confront the Cui family in advance!
"Do you think I'm too soft-hearted? Do you think I'm hot-blooded and don't care?"
Zhao Xin glanced at everyone sharply and snorted coldly.
"You are wrong. What I want to save are the people's hearts, the backbone of my Great Qin, not just Feng Zhong!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
In an instant, I suddenly understood something.
Liu Muzhi looked up at Zhao Xin, remained silent for a moment, then bowed deeply and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I was wrong!"
Wang Xuance, Yu Qian, and Kou Zhunren all looked at Zhao Xin with a hint of surprise, then bowed together, "Your Majesty is wise."
As for Cao Xiong, it was unclear whether this fellow was genuine or not. He was simply filled with enthusiasm, and he fell to his knees with a thud, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. I, your humble servant... woo~"
"Alright, alright, stop crying!"
Zhao Xin was originally a little proud of the performance of Liu Muzhi, Wang Xuance and others. He knew that they had paid him respects countless times, but this time they did it from the heart, not just out of courtesy between the monarch and his subjects.
But Cao Xiong's crying immediately extinguished the pride in his heart, and instead made him feel a little disgusted.
I couldn't help but spit out the fragrance.
Fortunately, everyone pretended not to hear.
Cao Xiong also realized that he had overdosed himself, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he usually didn't have many opportunities to participate in such major negotiations.
Although I was just serving by the side this time, it was still “by the side” after all.
In the future, you can brag about it by saying, "We were right next to His Majesty at that time."
But seeing that the emperor seemed a little fed up, he quickly wiped his tears and climbed up while sobbing, "This old slave is moved."
After saying that, he glanced at the emperor and happened to see Zhao Xin rolling his eyes. However, he didn't seem angry. At least he didn't tell him to get out. He immediately felt relieved.
But I also have some doubts... It is said that flattery will never wear out, so why doesn't the emperor like ours?
By the way, it’s probably because we don’t have many opportunities to serve Your Majesty, so Your Majesty is not used to it yet. He will probably fall in love with it after taking a few more photos.
Maybe, when that little monkey Yu Huatian comes back, His Majesty will no longer be able to leave our home.
Cao Xiong was thinking about good things in his mind, and then he happily stood beside Zhao Xin again, looking very well-behaved.
Zhao Xin couldn't help but glance at him and found that his loyalty had increased a lot. It was only over 70 before, but now it was close to 90.
I couldn't help but be stunned... What's wrong with this? Being given the cold shoulder can actually increase loyalty?
Could it be that he was really touched?
Zhao Xin muttered in his heart, but was too lazy to pay attention to him. After all, increased loyalty is never a bad thing.
He glanced around the scene and didn't see Li Cunxiao. He frowned slightly, but then he remembered that Li Cunxiao was now responsible for protecting Qiao Sanniang, so he didn't care.
Anyway, even if that guy is there, he will just grin foolishly.
He immediately spoke slowly, "We must save him, but how? Gentlemen, do you have any good ideas?"
"Your Majesty, otherwise let this old servant order someone to protect Lord Feng."
Cao Xiong was the first to speak and came up with a bad idea.
Zhao Xin rolled his eyes at him... You're protecting, but once your East Factory shows up, is that still called protection?
Although this could indeed save Feng Zhong's life, in the eyes of a guy like Feng Zhong who has a moral obsession with cleanliness, it would be worse than death.
Cao Xiong saw that he was met with another roll of the eyes when he spoke, but he didn't care. Instead, he smiled like a big daisy.
Anyway, what matters to him is participation and letting the emperor know our family's loyalty.
In this respect, he is actually similar to the emperor at times, both of them trying to make their presence felt.
Liu Muzhi and others thought about it, but they had no good ideas for the time being.
Kou Zhunren suddenly spoke up, "In my opinion, we can first issue an imperial edict to Lord Feng to reprimand him, and then order Liang Xiping to lead a team of imperial guards to guard the Feng family residence under the pretext of imprisonment to protect his family."
When Cao Xiong heard Kou Zhunren actually say that he wanted the emperor to issue an edict to reprimand Feng Zhong, he subconsciously opened his mouth, but then realized that at this time, he should just express his loyalty and not interrupt.
But he was still puzzled in his heart, wondering what bad idea Kou Zhunren had come up with, because Lord Feng was a loyal minister.
Everyone in the court today bows to that old villain Cui Cen. Apart from me, Cao Xiong, who is upright and unmoved, the only other person is Feng Shaoqing. How can I rebuke him?
Cao Xiong was a little unconvinced.
Ever since he had seen Feng Zhong's ability to scold people in the court before, Cao Xiong had been full of admiration for this Shaoqing Feng and always addressed him as "gong" when speaking to him.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the emperor did not reprimand Kou Zhunren. Instead, he asked with some surprise, "Has Liang Xiping taken control of the imperial guards?"
Only then did Cao Xiong notice the two key words "Liang Xiping" and "Imperial Guard" from Kou Zhun.
Liang Xiping remembered that the emperor had gone to great lengths to save that man.
But since then, that person seemed to have never appeared again, and even he almost forgot about him.
Unexpectedly, Kou Zhunren mentioned it again at this time, and it was actually related to the Imperial Guards. Cao Xiong became excited for a moment, feeling as if he had come into contact with some powerful secret.
Then I was moved again... I didn't expect that His Majesty would not even hide such a secret from me. He really trusts me too much.
Zhao Xin vaguely heard some slight movement behind him, and he frowned and turned around, only to see Cao Xiong looking at him with a silly smile on his face. He couldn't help but be stunned... What's wrong? It turns out that he is not as useful as Huatian.
But when I scanned again, I found that this guy's loyalty had increased to 90 points.
What happened? What did I do?
At this time, Kou Zhunren replied, "It's almost done. According to previous information, Liang Xiping has already gained the support of more than half of the officers of the Hundred Households, and many of the officers in the Thousand Households can be used by Your Majesty.
Although we can't fully control it yet, it shouldn't be a problem to mobilize a team of 100 guards."
Zhao Xin was overjoyed upon hearing this, clapping his hands and laughing, "This is great news. Liang Xiping is truly a talented general. He's done a great job."
