Chapter 520: Not a coincidence
Chapter 520 is not a coincidence
The crown prince stayed in Dongyao Palace that night, and the crown princess continued to clean up in the mansion, but after sending the emperor to leave the capital in person the day after tomorrow, she would bring someone to move over. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo, she also has three or four days to pack her bags.
Murong Shuo is a strategist, not even a foreign minister. Only the crown prince's proclamation can he enter Dongyao Palace. Therefore, he still lives in his Qingfeng Annex. When there is something, he will enter the palace to find the prince. But many times, when the prince is in charge of the country, he is leisurely in the prince's mansion, and he is too lazy to do anything.
Besides, the crown prince didn't need him to do anything. The crown prince has learned to deal with these state affairs since he was a child, and he said something rebellious: "He has long been used to dealing with them." There was no need for Murong Shuo to point out anything.
Murong Shuo is still living in the Prince's Mansion and taking care of Qiao Zhihan. In the end, the prince's mansion is still full of people, and the prince can no longer pass on his internal strength to her. But fortunately, Murong Shuo had already informed Ling Yunfeng's junior brothers. Some of them had already rushed to the Prince's Mansion to treat Qiao Zhihan's injuries.
Although Qiao Zhihan felt sorry for her junior brothers, she was still willing to accept the trouble of her other junior brothers compared to the troublesome prince.
The crown prince and the crown princess are not there, and only Murong Shuo, a guest, is left to be in charge. But Murong Shuo was too lazy to take care of these idle matters, so all the big and small matters in the house were handed over to the housekeeper to deal with. Murong Shuo is not the same as if he is not. Even, except for checking Qiao Zhihan's pulse every day, Murong Shuo almost never left his courtyard.
Of course, this is what appears to others to be so. But in fact, others have already gone to Dongyao Palace. However, he did not go to help the prince, but to find the "little gong". But "Little Gong" still didn't pay much attention to him. He didn't go to her to ask for it. It's just that I've been observing her in secret, trying to find clues to where Xiao Gong is going from her.
But as a result, nothing was found. Jiang Xinyao couldn't sense Murong Shuo's existence. But she knew that Murong Shuo would definitely be there. She knew that she couldn't hide it from Murong Shuo, so she could only ignore him. Respond to change with the same. As long as she stays here obediently and doesn't contact other people in Qingyang Palace, Murong Shuo won't touch her for the time being.
She is also really smart, and if she does this, Murong Shuo really can't do anything about her for a while. After observing for a while, I only found that I was wasting time. However, the more this was the case, the more Murong Shuo couldn't just give up. The longer the time dragged on, the more he was close to finding the gong. His patience was running out.
However, it was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight. One thing comes after another. A few days after the crown prince sent off the emperor and the second prince, he received the news that Yan Guo was going to send an envoy to visit. Originally, the envoys of the two countries should have greeted each other in advance. And it is definitely necessary to choose the time when the emperor is there to visit. So that someone can make a decision.
But by coincidence, maybe Yan Guo did it on purpose. The emperor also received a report from the Yan delegation on the march that Yan was going to visit. But at this time, the army has left the capital in high spirits, and it is really unrealistic to turn back at this moment. What's more, the envoy from the Yan Kingdom is not such an important prince in his own right, the sixth prince Wei Yang.
These six princes rarely hear his legend on weekdays, only saying that he is a wall-head who likes to cling to powerful princes. On the surface, he is in the same faction as the third prince, but in fact, he is secretly friendly with the prince of Yan Kingdom. At the same time, he is the so-called wine and meat friend with the prince of seven, eight and nine. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the most exquisite person in Yan Kingdom.
All forces, knowing that he is swaying from side to side, no one can be offended, everyone is close, and everyone has betrayed. But even so, they were willing to be close to him, and they were willing to entrust some things to him. This shows the power of a person.
When others scolded him behind his back and secretly despised him, the crown prince and Murong Shuo both concluded that this person was definitely not a thing in the pool. If it weren't for this, he might not be able to gain a foothold in Yan State, which is chaotic in party disputes and likes to eyeing its neighbors.
So as soon as they heard that it was him, both the prince and Murong Shuo couldn't help but raise their vigilance. I want to get to know him as a person, but I have to be cautious about him. Because I don't know which side of the party he is here as at this time. Different princes have different attitudes towards Qi State. Some are the main battles, and some are the main battles.
Now that the emperor is no longer there, the crown prince is only in charge of the country. If the greeting is not good at this time, which leads to any diplomatic accidents, then the prince is the first to bear the brunt. Don't look at the third prince after coming back, there is no movement at all, but who knows where he is holding back what is bad.
In fact, it is good and dignified, even if Montague wants to make trouble, why is it so coincidental. Before the prince returned to Beijing, they had a quarrel. And when they made such a fuss, the prince had no chance to tell the third prince about it. In this way, the people who benefit in the end are the three princes. If he didn't have a compliment to this, it would be absolutely impossible.
He didn't dare to conclude that the men he sent would be able to kill the prince. There is Murong Shuo by the prince's side, and the Lin family has already stood by the prince's side. There is no reason why they would not send someone to protect the crown prince. Therefore, killing the crown prince is only one of the plans. Since Ji Pei has a shrewd business mind, how can he not think of leaving a few more tricks.
In addition, Xiao Gong left the account book for Wei Wei to send to the second prince Ji Yuan. After Ji Yuan got the account book, he immediately went to find Ji Pei. On the surface, it was his people who helped cut off the prince's beard. An elder brother completely thought about his younger brother and saved him at any cost. But both of them understood that Ji Yuan was using this account book to blackmail him.
Since the account books are with Ji Yuan, of course Ji Pei can't force himself with him. And Ji Yuan also knew that he couldn't be too urgent. Naturally, his words were also polite, saying that he wanted the two of them to work together. He helped Ji Pei hide it, and even promised him all kinds of benefits after he ascended the throne. These things are what Ji Pei really wants, and there is no reason why he should not agree.
He knew in his heart that he didn't want the throne, he just wanted money. And his appetite, after the crown prince ascends the throne, will definitely not satisfy him. Therefore, the only person he can cooperate with is Ji Yuan. Since the account book, that is, his handle, is in Ji Yuan's hands. He promised these things, how could he not cooperate with him?
When two people are united, what to do, the two of them are simply as smooth as a cloud. The first is to deal with the crown prince. Ji Pei and Ji Yuan's people were sent together. But Ji Yuan had long known from Xiaogong that the prince would not die on the road.
Coupled with the hint of the little gong, they thought of Montagu. Montague was able to lead the troops so quickly this time because of Ji Pei's funding. (To be continued.) )
