Chapter 581: The Gamble of Fate

Li He watched Zhou Sisi leave, as if he had taken away all his bones, and the whole person suddenly lost support and collapsed to the ground.

Looking at the roof with empty eyes, scenes of life with Zhou Sisi appeared in Li He's mind. When I first met Zhou Sisi, her beauty fascinated Li He. As the crown prince, Li He has seen so many beauties, if he only talks about beauty, Zhou Sisi can't completely impress him, and what makes Li He obsessed is Zhou Sisi's purity that has not yet receded and the pure temperament that is different from the surrounding women.

After Li He established Zhou Sisi as the crown princess without hesitation, Zhou Sisi's intelligence helped him solve many large and small affairs. I don't know when Li He began to rely on Zhou Sisi, and he consciously or unconsciously consulted with Zhou Sisi about everything. Especially after the death of the emperor, Zhou Sisi almost became his behind-the-scenes military advisor, and he worked hard for him to ascend to the throne. Whether it was the retreat away from the imperial capital, the northern expedition of the nomads, or the 30,000 elite cavalry prepared for him in advance, Zhou Sisi was giving him advice.

After returning triumphantly with a great victory, Li He was expected to seize the throne, but the sudden rise of the three princes did not mean that Zhou Sisi's plan was unsuccessful, but that they were involved in a political conspiracy that no one expected.

The crown prince already knew that there was a mysterious force behind the third prince who supported him, and if it weren't for his appearance, he could have successfully sat on the throne, but now the ending is completely different. The reason why Li He thought of sacrificing Zhou Sisi in exchange for a chance to start over was because he really couldn't get anything more attractive to the three princes in his hands.

Until Zhou Sisi left ruthlessly, Li He suddenly found that after leaving her, he really had nothing now, and he was like a waste. Li He's heart was confused, he thought very well before, as long as he lived, he would regain his strength and make a comeback. Now that he thinks about it, if he can leave the imperial capital, he doesn't even know where to stay. The world is so big, there is no place for him, how can he talk about lying on his salary and trying his courage and making a comeback?

When Zhou Sisi is around, she will always plan everything for him, how to act, what things to complete every day, what to do in the first step, what to do in the next step, there are very clear goals, he just needs to nod his head in agreement or shake his head in denial. Now let Li He plan for his future, he can't even figure out what to do in the first step. Worse still, Li He suddenly found that he had lost the care of others, and he didn't even know how to survive.

The more Li He thought about it, the more desperate he became, and when he realized that Zhou Sisi's last advice was entirely for his good, Li He closed his eyes in pain and muttered, "If I lose my identity as a royal family, I'm a fucking waste!"

Zhou Sisi walked out of Li He's room, and the bright sun shone on her body, warm. Letting go of her identity as the crown princess made her suddenly feel a lot more relaxed, as if she had been reborn, and even her walking steps were much brisker.

Zhou Sisi went directly to the old owner of Zhou, the old owner had not healed from his old injury, and he added a new injury, his face became dull and pale, and he was sitting on the chair facing the sun at this time and closed his eyes to recuperate.

After hearing the footsteps, the old owner of Zhou opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Have you made a decision?"

"Grandpa, how do you know?" Zhou Si said strangely.

"Your footsteps today are different from usual, usually your steps seem to carry a huge shackle, heavy and depressing, today's footsteps seem to have removed the shackles imposed on you, light and cheerful, at this moment, the prince's situation is already very bad, if you don't have some kind of decision, how can you be relaxed. Old Zhou explained.

"Really?" Zhou Sisi smiled, "Grandpa, you guessed it, I have already had a showdown with the prince, and we don't care about his affairs." From today on, I am no longer the crown princess, whether Li He is good or bad, whether he is alive or dead, has nothing to do with me, we will leave the prince's mansion and leave Yong'an City. ”

"It's easy to ride a tiger and it's hard to get off a tiger! You think you're no longer the crown princess, but in the eyes of the world, your identity has not changed, and at present, it is impossible for us to leave Yong'an City, even if we leave the prince's mansion, it will not be an easy thing. Old Zhou Zhuang sighed.

Zhou Sisi replied: "I can't care what others think, at least I unlocked the lock for myself, and my heart is no longer tired." Grandpa, I want to go back to Xiangyunzhuang, back to Fenghe Ranch, I am tired of the prosperity outside, and I just want to spend the second half of my life quietly on the grassland under the blue sky. I now understand that ordinary days are the most fulfilling, and I'm sorry that my ignorance is dragging you down. ”

"In this life, who won't take a few detours? Since you want to go back, then we can go at any time, what about the prince?" asked the old owner of Zhou.

"I advise him to give up his desire to seize the throne, surrender to the third prince as soon as possible, and listen to him or not. If he wants to live, this may be his last chance. Alas, I really didn't expect that the third prince would win in the end, which was really unexpected!" Zhou Sisi sighed.

"No, the last one to sit on the throne may not be the third prince!" said the old owner of Zhou Zhuang firmly.

"Grandpa, who are you optimistic about? Judging from the current situation, who can compete with the third prince?" Zhou Sisi asked puzzled.

"As far as the situation of the imperial capital is concerned, the three princes do dominate, but the Li royal family is not the only one in the imperial capital, and there are also others who are more suitable to be emperors than the three princes. In terms of the ability of the three princes, even after ascending the throne, he could not reign too long, and the third prince also has an obvious weakness, of course, this weakness now seems to be his greatest strength, that is, the supporters behind him. It is with these supporters that the three princes have the current good situation. However, why do these people support the Three Princes? After the Three Princes ascend to the throne, will they listen to the Three Princes, or do they want to treat the Three Princes as puppets? As the saying goes, success is also due to him, and defeat is also due to him, and once too powerful tools are not mastered well, they will often hurt others and themselves. Old Zhou said.

Zhou Sisi nodded and said: "This force is really too powerful, and it appeared too suddenly, which caught us off guard, otherwise Li He would not have been defeated." However, according to my inference, this force is so forbearant and so powerful, it is likely that their target is more than one Shuntian Empire, so it is very likely that they will override the three princes and grasp the real power of the Shuntian Empire!"

Old Master Zhou nodded and said: "Therefore, unless the dynasty is changed, otherwise, if the Shuntian Empire continues, the three princes will definitely not be able to rule the country on behalf of the Li family." However, he is still very likely to be the emperor for a period of time, after all, the Shuntian Empire is not in civil strife, and someone needs to stand up to end this chaos and give the people a stable living environment. ”

"Grandpa, according to our current intelligence, the person who supports the Three Princes is Ouyang Yunqing, do you think Ouyang Yunqing will assist the Three Princes wholeheartedly?

Old Master Zhou shook his head and said, "There should be someone else behind Ouyang Yunqing, but the prince's intelligence network is like the eyes of a blind man and the ears of a deaf man, and it has not played any role. The prince's intelligence network was unknowingly destroyed, which shows how terrifying the opponent's energy is, and the combat effectiveness of the army sent by the other party far exceeds that of the Shuntian Empire's troops stationed in Yong'an City. The number of such an army is very huge, it is absolutely impossible for Ouyang Yunqing to be secretly trained, without the command of this army, Ouyang Yunqing has no possibility of ascending to the throne; All this shows that behind Ouyang Yunqing, there is an even more terrifying person or force, and we have to withdraw now, otherwise our foundation in the far northwest will probably be implicated!"

"I think so too, so now I have to dissociate myself from the prince. Grandpa, who do you think the three princes and the supporters behind Ouyang Yunzhuang will be?" Zhou Sisi frowned and asked.

"Ye Heng mentioned this matter to me before, and according to Ye Heng's inference, it was an organization called Shadow. The people who intercepted you and the crown prince before were sent by this organization. This organization is very powerful, Ye Heng said that the Taiyin Sect, the Jiangnan Chen family, and Ouyang Yunqing are all members of this organization, I estimate that Ye Heng held an anti-evil conference in Chen Shuizhou, and his ultimate goal is to force this organization to show up and find a way to destroy him. The owner of Zhou replied.

"Is Ye Heng crazy?Since he knows that this organization is so powerful, why does he want to provoke it?" Zhou Sisi was puzzled.

"Maybe it's because he knows how horrible this organization is, so he's doing it. The Shadow has not yet fully attacked, and the Shuntian Empire is about to be ruled by the three princes they support, once they fully exert their strength, what will happen to the entire Heavenly Fortune Continent? If this organization is not destroyed, there will be endless troubles! This is the responsibility that a man should have, but there are not many people who can understand his hard work. Old Zhou Zhuang Zhengse said.

"Isn't it dangerous for Ye Heng to do this?" Zhou Sisi asked worriedly.

"Of course there will be dangers, but, grandpa believes in Ye Heng, he will take care of everything. You may not know that his cultivation and strength have reached the point where his grandfather has to look up to him, and now in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that no one can defeat him steadily. Even so, this kid is still cautious and cautious, and he borrowed troops from me long before leaving the imperial capital. To tell you the truth, I have already made it clear to him in my letter to your second grandfather that I not only passed on the position of owner to him, but also asked him to help Ye Heng with all his might, you gambled on Li He, but grandpa bet all his bets on Ye Heng, you and my grandfather and grandson both gambled with fate, and now it seems that you lost, and grandpa has to wait for the result. Old Master Zhou said calmly.

"Grandpa, it seems that you and I are both gambling with fate!" Zhou Sisi said with emotion.
