If I destroy the stability that the previous kings have worked so hard to build just because of my intuition, how will I face the previous kings a hundred years later?"
Li Caimei did not refute, because she knew that all the successive kings of the Zhao family had faced such a heavy historical burden, otherwise it would be impossible for everyone to practice the blood-stained secret method to suppress the domestic situation.
Although she and Zhao Ning were not actually married, she knew the prince quite well and was treading on thin ice every day.
But she pondered for a moment and asked, "What about the Dali Academy? What about the reform? Without the Ganli marriage, does Your Highness still have the confidence to do these things?"
Zhao Ning was stunned for a moment. Without the military threat of the Gan Kingdom, would the Wei family allow the Dali Academy to be completed?
Once Ying Wuji is found guilty, the best case scenario is that he will be sent back to the country of Gan. In this case, all the ways to break the impasse that he has recently come up with will be wasted.
yes!
It can indeed maintain the stability of the situation.
But that's all that's left.
Zhao Ning looked at Li Caimei in astonishment: "You have never expressed your opinion on political affairs before, why are you…"
Li Caimei smiled and said, "Although Your Highness has not allowed me to leave the palace for many years, he has also treated me with sincerity. How can I not share His Highness' worries at all?"
Zhao Ning couldn't help but ask, "That day I promised you that as long as you could keep your throne, I would set you free. If I did that, it would probably take many more years for you to keep your throne. Are you willing?"
Li Caimei shook her head and smiled, "Your Highness allowed me this because he didn't want to see a caged bird die of depression. I advised Your Highness this because I didn't want to see two high-spirited young men bow their heads and turn into the bones of the dynasty!"
"this……"
Zhao Ning was extremely shocked. Li Caimei was living in the deep palace, so she would not die of depression. However, although her body was alive, the bird flying in the sky in her heart was dead.
If I had chosen to stabilize the situation, I would definitely not have surrendered so quickly and turned into the bones of the dynasty.
But there is only one Ying Wuji, a hostage who is so talented and has a high status and who also wants to marry into the Kingdom of Li!
She had to consider whether this was her only chance in her lifetime to break the deadlock in the Kingdom of Li.
But... Li Kingdom is not her country alone, and she has not even officially ascended the throne yet. Can she afford the consequences of failure?
For a moment, she was in a painful struggle.
Li Caimei took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness! It's not appropriate for you to come forward, just because you can't find a suitable reason. But I live in the deep palace, and I got three volumes of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio and heard a poem of The Peacock Flies Southeast. I feel very sorry for this talented man. Your Highness loves me and allows me to go and take a look. It's not a bad idea. If your Highness has anything to say, or if you want to give something to Ying Wuji, you can tell me."
Although the reason is a bit far-fetched, it makes sense.
Zhao Ning nodded: "I'll do as you say. Once the case becomes clearer, I'll come up with a plan. Thank you for your help!"
"Um!"
Li Caimei nodded and couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart, feeling that she must be crazy.
After all, what Zhao Ning said was right. From his own point of view, he should hope that Zhao Ning would consider the overall situation, so that he could gain freedom sooner.
But she has never been a rational person. The most rational time she made a decision, which sent her to the deep palace.
Being rational is so tiring. I don’t want to be rational.
She didn't want to see Zhao Ning become a mediocre person, nor did she want such an interesting person like Ying Wuji to be ruined.
The sun set quickly and the yard was plunged into darkness in an instant.
During this time, Zhao Ning kept looking out the window, as if he was in deep thought or in a daze.
Just at this moment, a voice came from outside the yard.
"Your Highness! Captain Chen Wei of the Flying Fish Guard requests to see you!"
"pass!"
After a while, a middle-aged man in a flying fish suit came forward and bowed: "Captain Chen Wei, I greet your highness!"
Zhao Ning's expression was stern: "What's the matter? Tell me now!"
For ordinary matters, if Feiyuwei wants to report, it will follow the normal notification procedures.
Only when encountering extremely urgent matters would one go directly to Qingjiang Palace.
In this emergency, what else can we do except Ying Wuji's matter?
Chen Wei quickly said, "Captain Wu ordered an autopsy first. Before the results come out, no one except her can get close to Ying Wuji. We all did as ordered, but not long after the autopsy began, Wei Meng led his men into the Feiyuwei headquarters.
Wei Meng said that he had invited a soul-searching master, and as long as he searched Ying Wuji's soul, the case would be solved immediately. He also said that this master mastered the soul-stealing technique, one of the 72 earthly evil techniques, and that this soul-searching technique would not cause any harm to Ying Wuji. He was doing us a big favor and asked us to allow the soul-searching technique.
"Soul search!"
Zhao Ning stood up and slammed his head, his face becoming extremely ugly: "How dare you! Does Wei Meng not take my family of the Zhao clan seriously?"
Even if he mastered the soul-stealing technique, one of the 72 Earthly Fiends, and it did not cause any harm to Ying Wuji, it was definitely not a reason to search his soul.
Searching the soul can search all memories, which is equivalent to stripping a person naked and parading him through the streets. It is a great shame for anyone. This technique is only used on extremely vicious criminals.
Ying Wuji is the prince of the State of Gan. What's the difference between using this kind of magic on Ying Wuji and trampling on the dignity of the royal family of Gan?
Besides, Feiyu Guard is directly under the command of King Li. Breaking into Feiyu Guard by force is truly arrogant.
Wei Meng is Wei Huan's eldest son and Wei Teng's older brother, so it is understandable that he is angry.
But how could a child of an aristocratic family do such an inconsiderate thing?
Could it be that Wei Huan just indulged him like this?
Zhao Ning asked sharply: "What is the current situation?"
Chen Wei quickly replied: "Wei Meng brought a lot of people this time, otherwise they couldn't get in. Of course we didn't allow it, and the two sides almost fought. But fortunately, with the presence of the supervisor of the Gan Kingdom Embassy, Wu Qianhu barely stabilized the situation and asked me to come to Qingjiang Palace to inform His Highness."
"very good!"
Zhao Ning sneered. This matter was already complicated enough, but he didn't expect that there would be people who complained that the water was not muddy enough.
She immediately stood up and said, "Your Highness, I want to see who is behind this!"
After saying that, he strode out of the yard.
Li Caimei hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed: "Your Highness! I want to go too!"
