"That must have been the last time you made a bad impression on her. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"I didn't! It must be you, the villain, who said bad things about me!" Jiang Yuwan didn't know that the two had a gambling contract, so Dugu Xiaomo thought that Sikong Yan deliberately distorted the facts, so Jiang Yuwan was suddenly so afraid of him.

Sikong Yan said: "Don't say it's useless, take out what should be given to me." ”

Dugu Xiaomo took out a palm-sized red jade stone unhappily: "Your mother should have told you how to use this, did you see the purple line on the jade, this is the same as the use of the Finder Stone." By the way, what are you going to do tomorrow?"

Sikong Yan accepted the jade and said, "Let's take the carriage, and we should be able to get to the Anshun Inn tomorrow night." ”

"Take the carriage!?" Dugu Xiaomo was stunned for a second, her eyes widened in surprise, and she looked at Sikong Yan with mentally retarded eyes, "I said Sikong Yan, are your brains in water, you actually want to take a carriage with such a convenient terrain as the waterway!"

From a topographical point of view, taking a horse-drawn carriage around the mountain road is indeed a very mentally retarded option. Sikong Yan had no choice at all, they had to carry Princess Zhaoying's body.

Fortunately, Dugu Xiaomo didn't wait for Sikong Yan's answer, and waved his hand in disgust, "I don't care how you like to go, and I won't follow you all the way." Also, there is one thing I have to say in advance, this time I only represent my personal position, and it has nothing to do with our Nine Shadow Sect, so don't expect the Nine Shadow Sect to take sides. Well, that's it, I'll wait for you at the Anshun Inn first. Goodbye, little Wan'er. With that, he walked to the window again, smiled at Shen Lanying, rose up, and disappeared into the vast night.

Dugu Xiaomo had been gone for a while, and Shen Lanying asked hesitantly, "Sikong Yan, ...... Who the hell are you? You say he's your brother, but he's not sexual, but you two do look a little alike. ”

Sikong Yan returned to the table, calmly playing with the jade in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "The two of us are cousins, and we look like we are very natural." Our mother is a twin sister from a large family in the west, and has a lot of connections to the Nine Shadows Sect. One of the two sisters married the contemporary leader of the Nine Shadows Sect, and the other married to the Sikong family in the capital. ”

Sikong Yan said, with a mocking smile on his face, "I still don't understand why my mother came all the way to the capital to marry a corrupt official with a group of wives and concubines, so that she ended up in the current situation...... But fortunately, she still has family support behind her, and the outside world only knows that my mother died of illness after giving birth to my sister, and in fact, she has returned to the west. Compared with the Sikong family, the West, which is protected by the Nine Shadows Sect, is a pure land for her. ”

Shen Lanying was stunned as she listened to Sikong Yan talk about the complicated relationship at home, she didn't dare to imagine how Sikong Yan's childhood was experienced living in this environment.

She thought about it seriously and realized that there was another question that was extremely important: "Then what is the relationship between you and Princess Zhaoying?" ”

"Me and her. Sikong Yan smiled inexplicably, "Guess." ”

“……”

The jade that Dugu Xiaomo handed over to Sikong Yan was used for positioning, and now Sikong Yan can judge Dugu Xiaomo's location at any time through the jade.

Recalling what happened in the past few months, Sikong Yan himself was also very emotional.

The former prince was the first person to develop cavalry in the Yong Dynasty, and his cavalry battalion was in the western suburbs of the capital, which was worthy of the name of the capital's first combat strength, and even the Praetorian Guards could not compete with it.

But this combat power belongs to the prince in the end. Even Emperor Yonghui has no right to transfer without a valid reason.

This layer of potential contradictions between the prince and the emperor, the second prince was naturally aware of it, so he had the intention of framing the prince and forcing the palace.

But the second prince never imagined that his mind had already been clearly understood by a small staff member under the fifth brother.

Two months ago, when the second prince was not ready to implement the plan, Sikong Yan pushed the boat down the river in the capital, killed the prince, and forcibly placed the credit on the second prince's head.

But the second prince knew very well that with his brother, it was impossible to do this kind of murder of his father and king. So he immediately understood that someone must be secretly interfering with the succession to the throne.

The enemy is in the shadows, and he should have lured the enemy out. But the second prince was anxious to find the enemy hiding in the shadows, and chose to cast a wide net. The sudden change had already thrown him into a mess.

Sikong Yan had already found a good opportunity and planned to do something to the second prince, but it turned out that God was not standing with Sikong Yan in everything.

He couldn't have imagined that Dugu Xiaomo would sneak into the capital single-handedly at this juncture and kidnap Princess Zhaoying. What I didn't expect was that Dugu Xiaomo also proposed a very naïve bet.

On the day he took Princess Zhaoying, Dugu Xiaomo left a bottle of antidote in Sikong Yan's residence, and told Sikong Yan that he had poisoned Princess Zhaoying, and if Sikong Yan could find Princess Zhaoying within a month and give her the antidote, even if Dugu Xiaomo lost, he would assist Sikong Yan to complete the plan to win the heir. On the contrary, if Princess Zhaoying is poisoned, Sikong Yan will stay in the Nine Shadows Sect for the rest of his life and be his subordinate after the plan to seize the heir is over.

After such a toss by Dugu Xiaomo, Sikong Yan not only missed the best opportunity to strike at the second prince, but also made the second prince suspect Princess Zhaoying, and sent a large number of killers to let her die on the way back to Beijing.

Indeed, when the capital was in chaos, Jiang Yuwan was suddenly arrested by the Nine Shadows Sect, and it seemed that the Nine Shadows Sect took advantage of the fire to rob it, but if you have to say that Princess Zhaoying and the Nine Shadows Sect colluded, it seems to make sense.

The situation that was originally under control was messed up by Dugu Xiaomo.

It can be said that if it weren't for the appearance of Shen Lanying, the situation on the side of the five princes would have become extremely passive. Princess Zhaoying's death will inevitably be made public, and the five princes must also return to the capital to pay tribute to the imperial sister.

Dugu Xiaomo didn't know that neither of them won this bet. Because the second prince succeeded, Princess Zhaoying was dead.

However, for Sikong Yan, apart from the impact of Princess Zhaoying's death on his mood, there was almost nothing to lose.

The five princes won the heir, Princess Zhaoying is a very important part, but due to some personal reasons, there are many things, and it is impossible for Sikong Yan to let Princess Zhaoying complete it. But now that the people in the palace have become Shen Lanying, everything is different, and she is more suitable than Princess Zhaoying to be the inner director of the palace.
