Chapter 16: Quadripartite Stalemate, Strategy
Su Mujun only glanced at Hongsan evilly, but did not answer.
But that cold and delusional demeanor invisibly told everyone, she was the rumored half-moon child.
For a while, the whole hall shook, and the sound of discussion continued to sound, making the whole restaurant more and more noisy.
This sudden movement and the exclamations of everyone naturally attracted the attention of the people who hugged each box.
Sure enough, as Su Mujun expected, the shopkeeper led her to take a few steps, and a small guy hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words to Hong San, and then saw Hong San approaching a little closer, and smiled respectfully.
"Half-moon Child, the distinguished guests in the Lanzi box on the third floor ask Son's face to be saved."
When Su Mujun heard this, he only raised his chin and spit out two shallow words: "Lead the way." ”
After the people in the hall saw the half-moon boy leave, some of them quietly left the restaurant and went to their respective forces to inform them of the news.
For a while, before the forces of all parties could recover from the news that the county lord of Chunyu was suddenly critically ill, they once again received heavy news that the half-moon prince had come to Liyang City.
Prince's Mansion.
After Chu Yunyue finished reading the Flying Pigeon Biography, her cool phoenix eyes seemed to have a trace of cold ripples, and the fact that Chunyu was critically ill should be fake, but it seemed a bit too coincidental for the half-moon prince to appear in Liyang at this time......
It seems that he will have to go to the General's Mansion tomorrow to see what tricks Chunyu is playing.
Yongyi Palace.
After receiving the news from the secret guard, Chu Wenjin directly opened the secret guard: "Stay at the gate of Xianyunju, wait for the half-moon prince to come out, and directly 'invite' him to the palace to see the prince of this world." ”
"Yes."
After receiving the news, Yan Wang Chu Tianyi left the palace directly and went to Xianyunju in person.
Half Moon Child's whereabouts are secret, he once tried to find someone, but in vain, since Half Moon Boy appeared in Liyang City today, how can he not be told to run away like this!
When Su Mujun walked into the wing, he looked at the group of five people sitting by the window, and his eyes directly filtered over a few people, and fell on the man in blue sitting in the middle.
The man is about one in twenty, his handsome face exudes a trace of elegance, and even those eyes have a faint smell of books, with the memory in his mind, it is impossible for Su Mujun not to know him.
King Ning, Chu Wenqing.
Chu Wenqing saw that Su Mujun looked at him as soon as he entered the door, and his noble air and arrogant eyes made Chu Wenqing dispel most of the doubts in his heart with just one glance.
In this world, there are royal children, and there are few people in front of them who are extravagant and arrogant, saying that he is a half-moon son, and he can be half believed.
Chu Wenqing stood up, greeted him personally, arched his hand very politely at Su Mujun, and chuckled.
"I've heard the name of the half-moon boy for a long time, so I take the liberty to ask the son to come up and talk about it, please don't be surprised."
Su Mujun's delusional eyes revealed a little light and perverse, stared at Chu Wenjin, and directly said a sentence that made the loneliness and arrogance seem incisive.
"King Ning personally asked people to invite, naturally it won't be just a narrative, my son likes to be neat and direct."
The arrogant and casual words made Chu Wenqing's face stiffen slightly for a moment, but when he thought of the rumors, he knew that the half-moon prince had a strange and withdrawn temperament, so he didn't care too much.
After only glancing at a few people at the table, the sons of the family immediately bowed to the two of them, and then left the room one after another, only one of them sat still.
Chu Wenqing led Su Mujun to the coffee table next to him, and introduced: "He is the brother-in-law of this king, Lu Han'an, the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and he is regarded as his own person. ”
Su Mujun didn't say anything more, nor did he glance at the people at the dinner table, but just walked to the coffee table and sat down idly.
That noble and delusional appearance made Chu Wenqing's eyes flash with a hint of coldness, but in an instant, he regained his modest and polite form.
personally made a pot of tea for Su Mujun, poured it full, and saw that she still didn't speak, so she finally couldn't help but open her mouth.
"Since the prince of the half moon is a cheerful person, this king is straightforward, I heard that the son is resourceful, but there are rules for others, this king wants to make a deal with the son, please ask the prince to solve the current situation of the royal family of Chu for the king, this king must meet the conditions of the son."
The half-moon boy has a rule, the transaction is not exactly a matter of money and goods, but to do one thing for the half-moon child, it may be to find a treasure, or a precious medicinal material, or save a person, etc......
Su Mujun raised the tea on the table and took a shallow sip, his slightly constricted eyes were delusional and treacherous, and now the situation in Chu State has indeed become a state of trivialism.
The Emperor of Chu is old, and he may die at any time, and the royal family of Chu State, because the Emperor of Chu has been in power for too long, there are many royal heirs, think about the great-great-great-grandson of Chu Yunyue, you can know how many royal children there are in Chu State.
is the current crown prince, and he is not the first, but the eldest grandson of the original prince.
In the troubled times, the former prince and his eldest son died on the battlefield one after another, so Emperor Chu regretted the death of his eldest son and made the eldest grandson of the former prince the prince, that is, Chu Yunyue's father, Chu Wenhao.
Chu Wenhao is elegant by nature, if he is in a peaceful and prosperous era, he will become a generation of Ming monarchs, but if he is in this troubled era, he will only become the king of the dead country in the competition for the hegemony of the world, not to mention, Chu Wenhao is still a well-known lover.
Although the palace also accepted side concubines and concubines, he loved the princess alone, plus Chu Yunyue, the concubine, broke his legs and lost his inheritance, Chu Wenhao's position as the crown prince became more and more precarious, and the rest of the palaces naturally had a chance to compete.
Among them, Chu Wenqing, the king of Ning, who is the same generation as Chu Wenhao, Chu Wenjin, the son of Jin of Yongyi Wangfu, and the youngest son of the Chu Emperor, Chu Tianyi, the king of Yan, are the most prestigious and the most likely to ascend the throne after Chu Wenhao abdicates.
But the three parties are all human spirits, and no one wants to get rid of Chu Wenhao, the prince, first, so that the other two parties can catch their handles, which has formed the current deadlock between the four parties.
The corners of Su Mujun's lips left the rim of the cup, outlining a cold arc: "There has always been only one way to break the deadlock. ”
Chu Wenqing's eyes flashed, a trace of curiosity and anticipation flashed, and he asked with a humble and polite smile on his face: "Please also ask the half-moon prince to give advice." ”
Su Mujun's delusional eyes flashed with a hint of demonic evil, and the teacup in his hand was placed on the coffee table, and the gentle collision sound was accompanied by two treacherous words.
"Dead people."
------Off topic------
