Chapter 495
"Why is the princess so sure that King Ning will hand over Mr. Nangong? Most of the officials involved in the account book made by the princess are people who follow the wind. These people may not be able to really help Ning. Wang, if King Ning handed over the princess' account book, wouldn't the princess' thoughts be in vain?"

Liu Xu asked.

Zixing played with the petals in the water and smiled.

Liu Xu is indeed smart, but her smartness has its limits after all.

In the deep palace, she did not have to do anything to obtain benefits for herself and fight for favor.

But when it comes to the interests of various forces in the court, as a servant in the deep palace, she naturally doesn't think so thoroughly.

"As you said, most of these people are people who follow the wind. They may not be of great help to him now, King Ning, but they will not be so in the future. Besides, there are these people in the court, and they are in the court of the father. Even if their advice is not very useful, it can always play a role in resolving it. For example, in the matter of Nangong Chao, General Cao testified against him so convincingly, but the father did not justify Nangong Chao Instead, let them continue to find Ankang. Although I didn't see what happened in the court with my own eyes, I can guess that these people must be trying their best to exonerate Nangongchao. After hesitating, the emperor said, will do so.”

"But when General Cao took Nangong Yu's re-prepared account book and pointed it out at Nangong Chao again, these people all spoke at the same time and pointed their finger at Nangong Chao. You said they were useless, but they were all at critical times. It is very useful. What's more, if Nangong Yu handed them all over just to keep Nangong Chao, who else would work for him in the future? Who would believe his promise?"

"Then why should the princess give the opportunity to King Ning to prepare another account book, and just find a way to hand over the account book made by the princess to the emperor? Wouldn't it be better to remove these officials who are not firm?" Liu Xu was puzzled. ask.

"Okay? Father is angry about the Wuqing Reservoir, because he is angry about the people of Xicheng. After a thorough investigation of the matter, he will be involved in a wide range of cases. When the time comes, many people will die. Instead, it will give others a chance to take advantage of it. If the father's painstaking efforts for the people were spread as cruelty, killing innocent people indiscriminately would only cause harm to the father. That's why I bought Ankang and let him act in such a play. But even if I don't kill Ankang, there will be people who want to kill him. The flood in the west city, the leak of Wuqing Reservoir, Nangongchao is not afraid, but people who are really pocketed are afraid, and Ankang, who knows the details, will not escape death sooner or later."

Zi Xing said, but his face darkened, and he quietly looked at the petals floating on the water, "Liu Xu, later, I will burn some paper money for Bengong to Ankang. Bengong's hands were finally stained with innocent people." Human blood. Bengong said that Ankang would die sooner or later, but he was just making an excuse for himself, to make himself feel at ease. But in the end, he still can't feel at ease."

"General Dugu will take good care of Ankang's family. The servants will also set up a memorial tablet for Ankang in a remote temple for him, so that the monks can save him. The princess doesn't have to blame herself. If the princess didn't strike first, everyone who falls behind , as the princess said, sooner or later all of this will become the emperor's fault. If Ankang's hands hadn't touched those dirty things, the people in the west city would not have suffered floods. No wonder others."
