    Shen Li's hands froze in the air for a moment, then retracted his sleeves, looked at him calmly, and said, "Are you free to chat?"

    Jin Zhao was about to speak, but saw two people slowly coming out from the entrance of the hall, their eyes swept in his direction.

    Jin Zhao frowned, "No time." Then he turned and left without stopping.

    Everyone thought that there was some play to watch, so they all looked sideways, but they thought that the master would just dismiss it with just two words, so they naturally felt that it was boring, and they left immediately.

    Shen Li stood where he was, watching his leaving back, with even more worry in his eyes.

    "Yu Heng, don't worry, General Cui must have done this because he didn't want to implicate you, you can find him privately." Qin Fengyang whispered in his ear.

    Shen Li said: "Of course I know, I'm just a little worried about him."

    Qin Fengyang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Relax, General Cui is a capable man, and he won't fall down easily."

    Just as Jin Zhao was about to leave the city gate, the eunuch stopped him, saying that Emperor Xuanhui had secretly summoned him.

    Jin Zhao didn't hold back, and followed the eunuch to the imperial study.

    As soon as he entered the room, Emperor Xuanhui walked towards him, looking even more anxious than him.

    "General Cui, are you out of your mind?" That's all he asked.

    Jin Zhao was stunned, what's wrong with the emperor, he gave the order just now, so it's inappropriate for him to be in such a hurry, right?Or...did you take the wrong medicine?

    "Your Majesty, you... have something to say directly." Jin Zhao said calmly.

    "General Cui, if you do that, I'm afraid you're playing into the enemy's hands." Emperor Xuanhui didn't hold back, and said directly.

    "Enemy?" Jin Zhao wanted to play dumb to the end.

    "Don't you know who wants to deal with you?" Emperor Xuanhui said in surprise.

    "I... don't quite understand what you mean."

    Emperor Xuan Hui sighed and said: "Now that the matter is up to now, I will not hide it from you. Didn't you see it just now? King Su's purpose is so obvious."

    Jin Zhao: "The subject has never offended him, why did he deal with the subject?"

    Emperor Xuanhui: "General Cui, you are still too upright. Not everyone is as simple as you think. It doesn't matter if you never offend him. As long as it is someone who blocks his way... how can he keep it."

    "The emperor means... I blocked his way?"

    Emperor Xuan Hui nodded and said: "Do you still remember that he asked to marry your sister earlier, but he didn't succeed? It must be because of this matter...he has a grudge against you."

    "King Su...could be such a stingy person?" He intentionally said in a cliché.

    "Just because of this is of course not enough. To be honest, King Su wanted to take advantage of his marriage with your sister to stay in the capital for a while, but you disrupted the plan. After that, the queen mother urged me to find a wayTo keep him, I couldn't stand my mother, so I had to arrange some things for him in Beijing, and temporarily kept him."

    He then said how could King Su stay for no reason, it turned out that Empress Dowager was behind it.

    No wonder Emperor Xuanhui was in a hurry. As a feudal vassal, he just stayed on like this, and... Empress Dowager's intentions were so obvious, he wished to hug King Su and sit on the throne. Can Emperor Xuanhui not be in a hurry.

    "He knew that he couldn't deal with you head-on, so he started with your father. I thought you could confront him head-on, but I didn't expect you to compromise so easily, and didn't even defend yourself. Now it's like this, isn't it?Did he happen to be able to handle it?"

    Jin Zhao said: "They clearly made preparations, even if I refute it, it won't help."

    "Then what should you do? Even if I want to help you save Marquis Huaiyuan, I can't save him directly. I'm afraid this matter needs to be carefully planned." Emperor Xuanhui lowered his eyes in thought, as if he was really worried about himgenerally.

    But Jin Zhao would not be so stupid as to have such an illusion.

    Emperor Xuanhui just wanted to use him to deal with King Su.

    "I'll go back and think of a way first, so I'll trouble you."

    Emperor Xuan Hui nodded and said: "You are the person I trust the most, so I naturally have to worry about you, I hope you can resolve this matter as soon as possible."

    After Jin Zhao nodded in response, he left the imperial study room.

    Emperor Xuanhui's expression instantly returned to the calmness before Jin Zhao came in.

    After Jin Zhao went out, Li Zhong walked in.

    "Your Majesty, I just saw General Cui leaving in a hurry. I think I was really anxious."

    Emperor Xuanhui walked to the desk, picked up the cold tea that had been put aside, and took a sip, "It's better to be in a hurry."

    "With General Cui's temperament... Maybe he will go to find King Su to confront him soon, maybe on impulse..." Li Zhong didn't finish his sentence, but just made a fuzzy gesture of wiping his neck.

    "King Su has been too arrogant in the past year, and I will naturally not tolerate it any longer. If Cui Jinzhao kills him, it will be the best result."

    Li Zhong: "If General Cui really kills him, what do you plan to do with... General Cui?"

    An unpredictable expression appeared on Emperor Xuanhui's face: "I can either let him go or kill him, it all depends on how he decides, whether he should be my dog or... other choices."

    "You want to..."

    "What is the crime of murdering the emperor's relatives?" Emperor Xuan Hui asked rhetorically.

    "Of course it is the death penalty of beheading."

    "If he kills King Su, he won't be able to survive himself, and he has only one way to go. Come and beg me, then wouldn't this chess piece have to be obediently walked into my hands?"

    Li Zhong cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

    Jin Zhao returned to the mansion, and not long after reaching his room, he heard a knock on the door.

    He thought it was Shen Li who hadn't spoken just now, so he went directly to open the door.

    Unexpectedly, standing in front of him was a middle-aged man with an unfamiliar face and holding a folding fan.

    With an easy-going smile on his face, the man called out lightly, "General Cui, it's our first time meeting you, see you well."

    Jin Zhao had already gone through the movie in his mind at that moment. Although he had never seen this person before, seeing his temperament, he was probably pretty close.

    Still puzzled, he asked, "You are?"

    "I have something important to discuss with the general, can I go in and enjoy a cup of tea?"

    As the saying goes, don't reach out and hit a smiling face, this person obviously came prepared, let's listen to what he has to say first.

    Jin Zhao nodded and opened the door to let people in.

    The man consciously went in and sat at the tea table, while Jin Zhao went over and poured a cup of tea casually.

    He just came back, and the servants hadn't had time to serve tea, so the tea given to him was naturally cold.

    The man didn't care either, took a sip symbolically, and then got to the point: "My surname is Meng, and I'm currently a guest at Cao Grand Marshal Mansion. I heard about General Cui's reputation and admired you for a long time. Now I know that you metWhen I was in trouble, I thought about coming over to see if I could help you.”

    Jin Zhao was speechless. This kind of polite person always likes to take such a long time when he speaks?

    Wouldn't the person behind the scenes be solved easily?
