Chapter 370 Follow-up
Zhao Kai's strength this time was a bit sudden, but Zhao Kai, who held heavy troops, could indeed be so arrogant. It was because Zhao Zhi was seriously ill, and no officials dared to speak out at this moment. It was even more impossible for people like Liu Sheng to speak directly to support the prince. As for Jiang Xingwen and his gang, they didn't want to negotiate peace, so Zhao Kai's appearance indirectly helped them.
Seeing Zhao Ke looking at him with a gloomy face, Zhao Kai smiled and walked to Zhao Ke and said in a voice that only the two of them heard, "Crown Prince, you are still too young. I know why you are so eager to negotiate peace. I just coughed up blood last night. I know this. I told you not to rush to negotiate peace for now. If you don't listen, I can only bring people to you."
"you......"
Only three people knew about Zhao Zhi coughing up blood last night. Zhao Zhi's personal eunuch, himself, and Liu Sheng. Although Liu Sheng is not stupid, he should not be able to do such a betrayal, so it should be the news leaked by the old eunuch. Looking at Zhao Kai who was proud beside him, Zhao Ke clenched his fists, which was caused by his negligence.
"Prince, let me tell you another thing. Did you know why I gave up fighting for the throne with your father?"
"Um?"
"Your father asked me to compromise, saying that he would accept Zhao Li as his adopted son. If Zhao Li was excellent, he would make Zhao Li the crown prince. I was too soft-hearted at that time and could completely get rid of Zhao Zhi as the emperor. Thinking of friendship, I compromised. When you were born, he actually regretted it. He also wanted various ways to weaken my power. Now that he has fallen, who can protect you?"
Zhao Kai talked about the past and said gritting his teeth. A soft-hearted heart caused all this. Now, the choice is in front of him again. He will not give up. He wants to take back everything that belongs to him.
"Uncle, why did you remember this morning court?"
Suddenly, a voice came from the side. Surrounded by a group of guards, Zhao Zhi lie on the sedan chair and said softly. Although the sound is not loud, the entire court has become quiet for a moment, especially Zhao Kai. Looking at Zhao Zhi who was slowly being carried over, he was a little surprised or frightened. Didn’t Zhao Zhi fall into a coma after coughing up blood and coughing up blood last night? Why did he suddenly wake up?
"Crown Prince, I have performed well during this period. Just do the peace talks. I'll do it like this. Uncle, do you think this is good?"
With Zhao Ke's support, Zhao Zhi sat on the dragon throne that had been sitting on for more than 20 years. He recalled that when his father suddenly passed away, Zhao Kai tried to get involved in the throne, and he compromised and sat on this position. This time he would not let his child encounter such a thing. Today he would handle these things completely.
"Uncle, as usual, this military information report takes once a month. Why did it report again so quickly?"
"Report to the emperor, I think this peace talks are not possible, so I will take three generals to explain the strength of our army to the prince, so that we can completely wipe out the rebels."
Zhao Zhi's sudden appearance caught Zhao Kai off guard and answered in a hurry.
"Well, uncle, you should be at home when you are old. You are in your seventies and I am very pleased to think about the country so much." Zhao Zhi's sudden praise made Zhao Kai even more confused. Then Zhao Zhi continued, "I heard that your iron voucher for your alchemy book was taken over by the prince?"
"Yes, I was confused for a while, but I was thinking about Xinsong, and was inspired by the rebels, so..."
