Chapter 164: Stumbling Blocks on the Road to Success (1st Update)
When the two armies fought, martial law would naturally be imposed, and Su Ci was discovered before he got close to the barracks, but because his face was really similar to Xiao Jiu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Many people saw Xiao Jiu on the day he went to the barracks, although it was only a short side, but because of her outstanding appearance, many people remembered her.
Su Ci had such a face, but he couldn't get in, and he never encountered any difficulties in investigation.
Not long after Yan Xi fell asleep, he heard Mo come in and respond, and immediately got up in a hurry.
"What's wrong?"
Yan Xi basically hasn't slept much these days, the Bai people want to grab food and grass, and there are constant small movements at night, and Su Ci came to him in person, which also makes him feel frightened.
"Let's go in and talk about it. ”
Su Ci's expression was calm, Yan Xi couldn't see anything, but he had a little bad premonition, frowned, and followed Su Ci into the camp tent, and Mo Yi stayed outside the tent.
The two sat down, Yan Xi poured a cup of hot tea and asked again, "What's wrong?"
If it's okay, Su Ci won't come to the barracks.
Su Ci picked up the teacup, but he didn't drink it, his eyes drooped slightly and fell on the tea leaves in the cup, and he pondered for a long time before he said lightly: "I just received the news that Nangong Xue has caught up with the fifth prince." ”
"Fifth Prince?" Yan Xi frowned, although he was not too shocked.
"Yes, the five princes have not married the concubine, and the position of the side concubine is also vacant, there are only a few concubines who don't matter. ”
In the end, he is in the center of power, and it is not difficult for Su Zi to interpret the reason why Nangong Xue took this step.
"Although the mother family of the five princes is not as good as the other princes, it is not to be underestimated, this year the five princes have begun to go to the court, and if they want to cultivate their own team, the position of the concubine will definitely be left to the greatest help, how can Nangong Xue He De?"
It's not that Yan Xi underestimates Nangong Xue, not to mention that Nangong Xue is just a distant relative of the Suguo Mansion, or that the fifth prince really married Nangong Xue, and the Suguo Mansion directly cleared up the relationship with Nangong Xue, so where can it be regarded as help?
"According to common sense, we are naturally right to guess this. ”
Su Ci's expression was calm, "But my people don't know how Nangong Xue got on the Fifth Prince, which means that the mastermind behind the scenes has acted again, and we don't know anything." ”
If it weren't for that, Su Ci would naturally not take Nangong Xue's move too seriously.
Yan Xi lowered his eyes and pondered, "If this is the case, it can only mean that this person behind the scenes must be something we have never paid attention to, and among the people around Nangong Xue or in contact, there must also be that person's eyes." ”
The enemy is dark and we are clear, and the situation is really unfavorable.
"To cut off Nangong Xue's contact with the Five Princes, it's very easy, a little operation, you can let the position of the concubine fall into the hands of others, but now the important thing is that we don't know why Nangong Xue is eyeing the Five Princes?"
Or the five princes, together with the mother family of the five princes, are the masterminds behind the scenes.
Or, the mastermind behind the scenes, wants to stuff Nangong Xue into the backyard of the five princes and do something.
Just like back then, when Nangong Xue entered the Suguo Mansion, she could not move for several years, but once she made a move, she would definitely hurt her muscles and bones.
"It cannot be ruled out that the Five Princes are behind the scenes, but if he is not, then the Five Princes must be that person's next target, if we keep an eye on the Five Princes, we will definitely find something. ”
The battle for the heir has quietly begun, the five princes have gone to court, the ultimate goal of the mastermind behind the scenes is the throne, there will be no less action at this time, as long as you always pay attention to the previous dynasty, you can always find clues.
"There are still too few clues. ”
Su Ci shook his head, his mind a mess.
After a moment of silence, Yan Xi asked again: "If Nangong Xue catches the fifth prince, what about Xie Yuan?"
It is said that there was a trouble, and someone saw Nangong Xue accidentally push Xie Yuan off the boat and into the water, and then the two had no contact. ”
This news is not important, but it is mentioned at the end, after all, there were not many witnesses at that time, but there were also many of them.
Yan Xi nodded, didn't say anything more, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, "Does Xiao Jiu'er know this news?"
"When I received the news, Xiao Jiu'er had already gone to rest, so I didn't tell her, I thought about discussing it with you first, so I came over directly. ”
Su Ci naturally did not have conceit to the point that he could catch the mastermind behind the scenes with his own strength.
Yan Xi suddenly remembered something, and said quickly: "I remember the last time I went back to Beijing, I saw Su San and Nangong Xue in the restaurant with Xiao Jiu'er and bought a maid on the street to go back, it is said that this maid quickly became Nangong Xue's henchman, and she is still seducing your brothers in private." ”
Su Ci thought about it for a while, then nodded affirmatively, and said: "There is such a thing, this maid is a little scheming, it is not surprising that she can get Nangong Xueqi, I knew that when she secretly seduced a few brothers, I didn't care, how can I ......"
Could it be that there is something wrong with this maid?
"I don't know if there is a problem with this maid, but she is so scheming, I am afraid that she is also Nangong Xue's right-hand man, if she doesn't know some things about Nangong Xue, it can't help but say. ”
Yan Xi squinted slightly, his eyes were bright, and he said in a deep voice: "This maid can become Nangong Xue's henchman, except for her deep thoughts, there must be some other reason." ”
Based on the above two points, Yan Xi felt that selling herself to bury her father was not just a careful opportunity for a girl who wanted to climb a high branch.
"I'll have someone look into it, but I don't think anything will come of it. Su Ci is not optimistic about this.
The biggest reason why that person can succeed is simply that he only uses certain people to achieve his own ends.
Whether it was the original incident of the master of the abstinence or the incident of Su Jiu's disappearance, this was the maniwork of that person, but the role he played in it was easy to be ignored.
Just like a man who seduces a person full of hatred to pick up a knife and kill someone at a certain moment, he does not move, but just says a few random words to urge others to achieve his goal.
If he had been using this method to find out this person, the situation would not be optimistic.
"Check it out first. "Before the end of the day, Yanxi believes that anything is always possible.
"Since his goal is the throne, then we are committed to being a stumbling block to his ascension to the throne, and after a long time, he will always be unable to hold his breath and jump out on his own. ”
Although the enemy is very strong, Yan Xi did not flinch in the slightest, and even had a little contempt, this person is only afraid of empty ambitions, but he does not have enough strength to match.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't be like a bedbug, always hiding in a corner, secretly taking out enemies with some side doors.
"When he is only one step away from the throne, it will be the moment when he is most conceited and proud, and he is the easiest to show his feet!"
