At this time, Wei Gao heard clearly that Zhang Fen, the general who was accompanying his horse, happily shouted to him: "Congratulations to Wei Ling, Fengshan and Nei Chan, the military envoys returned the military power and document of the court one by one. It was really peaceful in the world!"

Wei Gao almost vomited blood.

"Yi Song, you...!"

Similarly, Du You, who had just left the city to Lantian Post, was so scared that he hurriedly walked towards Shangluo Road in shame when he heard this series of coups.

In the Beijing Jinzouyuan in Huaihai Province, huge raindrops kept falling down the tiles, forming a rain curtain, falling on the bricks and stones of the corridor, making endless echoes.

Gao Yue looked at the misty rain and fog and said nothing for a long time.

Although many people were coming to see him off this time, Gao Yue refused all of them, and in the end, only Zheng Zhi, the assistant minister of the disciple, was present.

"Do you have any stories to tell?" Zheng Zhi poured a glass of wine for Gao Yue on the couch.

If it were Gao Yue in the past, he would have looked very proud, but now Gao Yue's face was full of loneliness. After hearing Zheng Pei's words, he could only squeeze out a smile.

He sat down opposite him, took the wine cup, and replied to Zheng Zhu: "I was in Huaihai and sent a large ship to Japan many times, and got some novel dramas and capital. There is a story that was asked by the monk who came across the sea to tell me, and I will tell you."

"I'm bored after a long time, but you don't have to walk as fast as Wei Ling and Du Lingnan in his senior year. It would be fine if there is a strange talk to use it as a sasa wine."

Gao Yue thought for a while and then said, "I don't know what era it was, or it was in ancient times, or it might be not long ago. Of course, there might be a murder in the capital of Japan. A woodcutter who cut down fir trees saw a corpse in a bamboo forest called Shanke in the suburbs of Beijing. The man was killed by a blade, and blood splattered all over the surrounding bamboo leaves. In a panic, the woodcutter told the bad guys in Japan... Later, a monk who was walking on foot confirmed the woodcutter's statement. He testified that the body was actually a samurai from Zhechong Mansion, Japan. On that day, he saw the warrior leading a horse and carrying his wife to the bamboo forest..."

In the rain, Zheng Yue held the wine cup and listened carefully and quietly to Gao Yue's narrative. Occasionally, he drank the best spring and continued to listen.

When Gao Yue finished slowly narrating, Zheng Xi put down the wine cup and looked at the rain in the courtyard, feeling even colder all over his body.

"What you are talking about is not the Huaibei story you wrote before you passed the imperial examination. That kind of story is aimed at breaking doubts. But now, everyone tells the details so clearly, but the truth is never clear."

"Why?"

"Because in this murder, everyone, the woodcutter, the monk, the wife, the robber, and even the soul of the dead warrior, lied at the critical point."

Gao Yue nodded and continued to ask Zheng Zhi: "Why do you want to lie?"

"Lie are good for them." Zheng Zhi finished answering without thinking, and then suddenly thought of something. First, he was silent for a long time, leaving only the sound of rain falling on the entire Xuanguan corridor. Then it was Zheng Zhi's turn to speak, "Why don't you contact you and Wei Ling together during the New Emperor's Zen?"

"Because for the new emperor, Wei Chengwu's price is very clear. The clearer a person's price is, the easier it is to reach an agreement. But the new emperor is not sure about my price, and he is also suspicious that there is a close relationship between me and the Supreme Emperor, so he dare not take risks."

"But let Wei Ling and Du Lingnan aside, the new emperor would still contact you alone, right?"

"That's right." Gao Yue slowly sipped a drink and admitted, "The new emperor was not sure about me, but it doesn't mean he could leave my support. While he made a promise to Wei Gao, he also lied to Wei Gao. Now he thought he had figured out that I was right about me, because I helped him to hold this position, Xingyuan, Fengxiang, Binning, and Hezhong at the same time returned the imperial palace, especially the Xingyuan Dingwu Army, who directly controlled the Kongdao of Sanchuan to and from Guanzhong, so I destroyed Wei Chengwu's long-cherished dream!"

Zheng Zhi couldn't help but take a breath.

He knew best that Xingyuan Mansion was the gateway between Xichuan and Dongchuan. What Wei Gao thought was to get this gateway.

With this portal, Wei Gao can become a dragon.

Without this portal, Wei Gao could only...

"Who is the medium for you and the New Emperor?"

"At this point, anyone can be a medium. Since the palace changed, the new emperor dared to rush out of Shaoyang Courtyard in purple clothes and hemp shoes, and told all the imperial guards that there were edicts of inner Zen, then there was no bet for him that he could not bear to make." Gao Yue was also at the critical point and was so secretive.

"In the Qujiang Pavilion during the Inner Zen period..."

Gao Yue rarely smiled, "How dare Wei Gao and Du You kill me? Although Wei Gao had an agreement with the new emperor, he still couldn't trust the court, so he lied to the new emperor. He asked someone to come to me privately because he knew that Xingyuan and Dingwu Army were run by me. His attitude of value was even more important than the new emperor and the imperial court. He offered me a very high price, including marriage, and willingness to support the Huaihai Shang Secretariat and swallow Jiangdong, Xu Si."

"You lied to him too." Zheng Zhi understood, his eyelashes trembled, "Where is Du You?"

"Du You will be better at dealing with it. He doesn't have that big ambition, but he just wants to be the prime minister in the future, so let him be the best."

"Is this a lie?"

Gao Yue lowered his head and smiled without answering directly.

"And, the prime ministers trust you more than Wei Gao and Du Youlai... As for whether or not a prime minister also told various lies to all kinds of people in this inner Zen, I am too tired and no longer want to distinguish them."

Hearing this, Gao Yue's eyes echoed in the depths of his eyes.

"However, in the end you lied to the Supreme Emperor." Zheng Zhi still followed him.

Gao Yue dissipated his smile, his expression was a little sad, and he did not escape, "No, there were only three people in the world in Huayue, the Supreme Emperor, you and me, I did say that you will always support the Tang family and never usurp. I did not break my oath. And the new emperor's political system is exactly what you and the world want, but I just changed my personal life to the Zichen Hall. The law used is "Inner Zen". Can you say that it violates the law of the ritual system? Can you say that it is usurpation? It's not, so your accusation of civilization is not true. But I really feel sorry for the Supreme Emperor in my own private life. I may not be able to redeem this sin until I die."

"Authentic..." Zheng Zhi sighed. He was not disgusted with Gao Yue's method. Perhaps this was the best and most appropriate solution after weighing the trade-offs. "Where can there be a few sages in this world? From your story, I can understand how ugly and selfish people's hearts are! But the reality is even more terrifying. You can actually use this extreme selfishness to achieve great things. It seems that the country needs you more than I am like pedantic."

"No, on the contrary, when the country becomes unified and great again, I will withdraw from the situation and you will take the place."

Zheng Zhi looked at Gao Yue and nodded solemnly.

This kind of answer does not require any politeness.

Because he understood that Gao Yue's words were by no means a lie, and he could not lie to Gao Yue.
