Then that night, Jiang Ruan finally got the words out of Xiao Shao's mouth, it turned out that when Xiao Shao first took over Jinyiwei, he went deep into southern Xinjiang to deal with the remnants of southern Xinjiang at that time, and the head of southern Xinjiang at that time was the younger brother of the king before the destruction of the southern Xinjiang country. It was not suitable for a large-scale frontal confrontation with the enemy, and Xiao Shao at that time was a young man who was heroic and fearless, so he went directly into the southern Xinjiang single-handedly and beheaded the leader of the southern Xinjiang under the horse. There must have been a dangerous price to be paid for this, but Xiao Shao is a result-oriented person, and the result is that he succeeded.

A young boy had such great ability at a young age, and it was already very terrifying in the mouths of the people of southern Xinjiang at that time. And Xiao Shao himself was born handsome and unparalleled, and his temperament was cold and mysterious, so he naturally attracted one person, that is, the saintess of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom: Dan Zhen.

Dan Zhen was the saint of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, Xiao Shao was only about fourteen or fifteen years old at that time, and Dan Zhen was even younger. The two were clearly in a hostile position, but Dan Zhen had other feelings about Xiao Shao. This is an ordinary thing, Xiao Shao is too eye-catching among his peers, Dan Zhen is a saint, and her life is pure and desireless, and when she sees a handsome young man at first glance, she will naturally have a heart of admiration. However, Southern Xinjiang has always protected the saint very well, unlike Qi Man, Qi Man is the princess of the royal family, and the people of Southern Xinjiang defend her, which is to protect the face of the whole country, and to protect the saint is to maintain the faith of the entire southern Xinjiang.

It's just that the saint can't become a biological child in her life, and she is destined to be a lonely existence. And Dan Zhen's way to express his affection for Xiao Shao is: exhaust all the pursuits. This seems to be very similar to the strong possessiveness of the people of southern Xinjiang, when Xiao Shao returned to Beijing with the head of the leader of southern Xinjiang, Dan Zhen sent dozens of masters to besiege Xiao Shao together, trying to bring him back, that is, to be a puppet or a forbidden belly is also good, and that day Xiao Shao killed dozens of masters one by one, and rushed back to the capital with serious injuries, this was the first time he met Jiang Ruan.

When Xiao Shao talked about this matter, he also said the relationship with Jiang Ruan by the way, Jiang Ruan was also a little surprised, Xiao Shao said earlier to repay her kindness, but in fact, she didn't take it to heart, and she probably didn't remember it. But now that he learned about that past from Xiao Shao's words, Jiang Ruan himself was also very emotional.

But after going around and around again, Jiang Ruan glared at him, although Yao Niannian didn't mean anything special to Xiao Shao, but because of the emperor's intentions, he was always a rival in love. And when he met the real Yao Niannian for the first time, Jiang Ruan sensed the turmoil in the woman's heart, and he may not have no thoughts about Xiao Shao. Now that Yao Niannian is dead, there is a Danzhen again, and it has been many years since he traced it. Thinking that Xiao Shao has been coveted by a woman for so many years, Jiang Ruan's mood is indeed not very happy. She said, "You are really a scourge that attracts bees and butterflies." ”

Xiao Shao was slightly stunned, and his expression was a little helpless. How can he blame him, he is cold-hearted, but he has never been aware of Danzhen's mind, and then he is aware of Danzhen's mind, and he is nothing in his eyes. Life is about to be wonderful, Xiao Shao himself didn't expect that one day he would have the mood of eternal care for a woman, Xiao Shao himself didn't expect it, and Dan Zhen couldn't even think of it. The jealousy in a woman's heart has always been terrible, if Xiao Shao is cold to everyone, Dan Zhen may not be a nail here in Xiao Shao, but one day a woman appeared, and Xiao Shao was favored, Dan Zhen found that Xiao Shao has not always been indifferent to others, and his heart will inevitably collapse unbearably.

"No wonder she keeps calling me the Lord of Hong'an......" Without waiting for Xiao Shao to answer, Jiang Ruan said to himself: "I originally minded my identity as a princess." It can be seen here that this person is not a person who is good at forbearance, at least in terms of feelings. Although he is also very good at using people's hearts, such as the purpose achieved by using Dew Drop and Nishiki Er that day, it is still extremely difficult to grasp his emotions. This may have something to do with her own position, the saint who is high up, and the people around her treat her obediently, where will she encounter any setbacks. Jiang Ruan analyzed.

In the process of the game, a forbearant opponent is obviously more terrifying. Jiang Ruan and Xuan Pei can be regarded as forbearant people, because they have the lessons of blood and tears in their previous lives, and they have experienced the pain of being ignored when they are young. Xuanli's forbearance is also very good, especially inappropriate for a proud son of the sky. The same is true of this Dan Zhen, as a woman, being unable to control her emotions is her biggest weakness, and in such a comparison, that Qi Man is much more terrifying. Qi Man is the princess of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom, and naturally she used to live a life of golden branches and jade leaves, but she was stunned and hid in Shangshu Mansion incognito, becoming an unfavored aunt, which is not easy to do, especially after so many years without any flaws. And her flaw is the biggest flaw, even Jiang Ruan can't help but be a little shocked at this point.

She was thinking carefully about Qi Man's affairs here, but Xiao Shao saw that she had been frowning and didn't speak, thinking that Jiang Ruan was minding Dan Zhen. No matter how steady Xiao Shao is on weekdays, he is always a little helpless when facing Jiang Ruan, he is not as accustomed to making people happy as Jin Er, and he is a little nervous when he sees Jiang Ruan unhappy. After thinking for a while, he reached out and pressed Jiang Ruan's shoulder and said, "How about killing her?" ”

Jiang Ruan: "......" This is too fast, she hasn't said anything yet. If Dan Zhen knew Xiao Shao's words at this moment, he was afraid that he would be crazy with jealousy again.

She didn't speak, Xiao Shao just took her as a default, and without saying a word, she approached and pinched her chin, Jiang Ruan was stunned, but he didn't expect him to do this, Xiao Shao kissed her.

Steward Lin said that women are always soft-hearted, and if they can't be coaxed with good words, they can only kiss each other, and the harder they kiss, the better it will be.

Xiao Shao's strong offensive directly blocked Jiang Ruan's words, and the initiator was very satisfied when he saw this, sure enough, Steward Lin didn't deceive people, this method is really good.

……。

In an inconspicuous house somewhere in the capital, it doesn't look any different at the moment, the slaves are carefully sweeping outside the courtyard, doing embroidery work, and it looks as moist as the life of some small rich families. It's just that if there are masters here, if you observe carefully, you will find that these subordinates don't seem to be so simple.

There were three people in the room, and the woman sitting on the high seat on the main seat looked a little haggard, and her appearance was just ordinary, but even if it was an ordinary appearance, it looked a little different at the moment. This person is none other than Yishuang, the eldest aunt of Shangshu Mansion, or rather, the former princess of Southern Xinjiang, Qi Man.

If someone from Shangshu Mansion saw Qi Man at this moment, they would definitely be surprised. The appearance is still the same as before, but the temperament seems to have changed from a person. has an ordinary appearance, but the expression on his face seems to be seductive, and his every move is charming, but there is a trace of indescribable coldness in the charm, and the amiable Yishuang who didn't like to talk in the past is like two people.

"Auntie, what's next?" The woman sitting at the bottom right of Qi Man asked. The woman's voice was obviously younger, and the eyes exposed outside the veil were so agile that they seemed to be able to drip water at a glance. She was dressed in red, and there was a mysterious beauty all over her body, but in this beauty it was much more dangerous.

"Don't be in a hurry." Qi Man said slowly.

"What my aunt said is right, but my aunt is used to being patient, and she has stayed in the capital of the Great Jin Dynasty for more than ten years, and I am afraid that she has forgotten the identity of the princess of the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom. However, now that we are back, we are here for revenge, how can we be chased and fled like rats crossing the street, and where will the face of my southern frontier country go? This seems to mean nothing, but if you listen closely, you will not be able to perceive the thorn in it.

Qi Man didn't speak, but Yuan Chuan, the masked man sitting at the bottom of Dan Zhen, couldn't help it, he glanced at Qi Man uneasily, and then said slowly: "Does the princess have a plan?" ”

What is the Southern Frontier Country's thoughts on Qi Man, although the Great Jin Dynasty is their enemy, the culprit who destroyed the Southern Frontier Country at the beginning, but it can be traced back to the root, everything was caused by Qi Man. If she didn't provoke Prince Hongxi, or if she didn't kill Xiang Xiaoyuan so quickly, what would happen to the Southern Frontier Country now. At the beginning, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty ordered the destruction of southern Xinjiang, although it was to expand the territory, but the more important reason was probably to avenge Prince Hongxi.

Qi Man is not an exaggeration to say that it is a scourge for the southern Xinjiang country, and the people of southern Xinjiang have a lot of complaints about her, but for so many years, Qi Man has disappeared, so naturally there is nothing to say. Dan Zhen is Qi Man's niece, if it weren't for Qi Man, she still enjoys the treatment of the royal family, but now that the southern Xinjiang country is destroyed, she can only be a saint who will never marry, although her status is high, but her life is monotonous and boring, Dan Zhen has no resentment towards Qi Man.

What's more, now that the two of them are in the capital, it is equivalent to having two masters in the southern Xinjiang country, how to send the people under them, and who this head is, there must be some trouble. In terms of qualifications, it is natural that Qi Man is the master of southern Xinjiang today, but for so many years, his subordinates have obeyed Dan's dispatch, if they are just given to Qi Man, how willing Dan is in his heart.

Yuan Chuan saw clearly, Qi Man was unfathomable, but Dan Zhen would never admit defeat, but at this juncture, it was never the time for infighting, so he spoke out to ease the edge between the two and asked about Qi Man's deployment. is different from Dan Zhen, Dan Zhen's temperament is a little more casual, this time she came to the capital, although she said that she wanted the Great Jin Dynasty to pay the price of blood, but her mind has always been on that person. And Qi Man, the purpose has not changed from the beginning, and that terrible purpose is to make the entire Great Jin Dynasty pay the price of blood.

"The people of the Jin Dynasty are reckless and accustomed to being smart, a few days ago, you were borrowed a knife to kill someone, and you injured your own game," Qi Man said slowly, Dan Zhen's expression changed, Yao Niannian's identity was revealed, and it was her shame to run around in the capital, and Qi Man was humiliating her fiercely. Qi Man continued: "This time, we will borrow a knife to kill," she smiled slightly, and the gaze in her eyes seemed to be very happy: "No, it should be said that the snipe and the clam are fighting, and the fisherman is profitable." ”

After Qi Man said this, he got up and walked out of the house. After Qi Man left, Dan Zhen clenched his fists fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "What! ”

"The Holy Maiden is cautious." Yuan Chuan said: "At a critical juncture, try to refrain as much as possible. He said it briefly, and I believe Danzhen can understand it.

Dan Zhen snorted coldly, although his expression was still a little unwilling, but he followed his words: "Naturally." ”

……

At the same time, in the Eighth Prince's Mansion, Xuan Li quietly played with the wrench on his thumb, different from the anxiety of the previous days, at this moment he was calm and relaxed, and he was indescribably leisurely, as if he had already made a bamboo in his chest. The staff on one side sat quietly until the guards came quickly to report: "Your Highness, the letter has been delivered to the palace." ”

Xuanli's movements were abrupt, he sat up straight all of a sudden, and only shouted "Okay", and his eyes suddenly became a little excited, which was very rare in Xuanli, who had always been restrained, as if the thing that had been planned for a long time in his heart was finally completed.

"Congratulations, Your Highness." The staff stood up and said, "This time, it will definitely catch them off guard." Fight again and again, and the great cause can be in sight. ”

Xuan Li waved his hand, and his face returned to calm, but even so, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows still couldn't stop flowing with some pride: "Be passive, let the opponent take it lightly, and then attack it unprepared, if you are fully prepared, what about King Jinying, it is not helpless." ”

"Your Highness is wise, you have a clear relationship with those people in southern Xinjiang early, and now you are using them to contain the eyes of King Jinying's mansion, King Jinying is now focusing on southern Xinjiang, and the thirteen princes have no time to take care of it, Your Highness can let it go." The staff praised it at the right time.

Xuanli shook his head and said: "The people of Southern Xinjiang are very ambitious, and they also want to share half a cup of the country with me, if Southern Xinjiang is not removed, it will become a big trouble in the future, it is better to be bait for me, attracting the attention of Jinying Palace, in this way, the two tigers will fight, and both will lose, which is beneficial to me." ”

"It's just Your Highness," the staff hesitated slightly: "Over there in the palace, the thirteen princes are afraid that they have left their hands behind, and the thirteen princes are cunning by nature, so I am afraid that they are not so easy to be fooled." ”

Xuan Li smiled slightly: "This is nature, if I don't have complete certainty, how dare I do this." Now that things are going step by step according to my plan, it is enough to show that he has not found out that it is stupid to look outside and envelop the minister. This bloody battle must be resolved in the palace in the end, and the only one who can call the shots in the end is the father. Sacrifice the book, Xuan Pei is a big taboo. "Xuan Li still has the heart to teach Xuan Pei a lesson here, and in terms of his cautious nature, he is now completely sure and confident.

"Now, just wait for the results." Proclamation.

……。

On this day, the emperor went to court as usual, these days, the emperor's days on the court are getting shorter and shorter, the time for reviewing and reading the folds is getting longer and longer, and there are more and more folds accumulated in the imperial study, and some of the ministers have begun to be depressed, and they have speculated that the emperor is wrong. But when someone wanted to inquire about the news from Dong Xiuyi, who was beside the emperor, they got the news that the emperor was all right and there was no problem.

Mu Xirou, another favorite concubine who can get close to the emperor, is a cold beauty, so naturally she doesn't expect to find out any news from her mouth. But the more Dong Xiuyi said this, the more the speculation of the ministers became more and more rampant, but at least on the surface, the previous dynasty was still calm, and only the old ministers who had been up and down in the sea for many years could keenly smell the slightest difference from it, and had a premonition that a huge storm was about to sweep the entire Dajin Dynasty.

So on this day, the storm of the Great Jin Dynasty came suddenly, disrupting the peaceful days of decades, and it set off a huge storm as soon as it came.

The emperor, the king of a country, when he was in the last dynasty, was listening to the excerpts on the book of the Ministry of Rites, he fell down from the dragon chair, fell unconscious, and has not woken up yet. All the imperial doctors in the big hospital were dispatched, and now they are helpless.

The court was in an uproar, in this almost white-hot seizure, and there were people from southern Xinjiang mixed into the capital outside, internal and external troubles, the king of a country actually fell, what is even more terrifying is that the king of a country does not know when he will wake up, seeing the heavy expressions on the faces of those doctors in the imperial hospital, all the ministers invariably flashed a terrible thought in their hearts: If it is... Can't wake up?

Then the country of the Great Jin Dynasty is afraid that it will be disrupted.

The courtiers didn't dare to talk about this matter everywhere, even if it was relatives, but anything that might cause the people a little panic and let people know that the precarious status quo of the royal family of the Dajin Dynasty could bring infinite hidden dangers. After all the courtiers returned to the house that day, they began to seriously think about how to go next, if the emperor did not wake up, there was bound to be a vicious battle between the eighth prince and the thirteenth prince, and in this vicious battle, they were staked on their own worth, and they got countless glory and wealth. The bureaucrats in the capital began to discuss and plan, but there was a small chaos in the palace. This kind of chaos and panic was forced down by various palace rules, but even so, the panic was still spreading rapidly. The fall of the emperor means that an era may end and a new era may have to begin anew.

However, the crown prince has not yet been established, and the prince is still ominous.

This is the source of all panic, every time there is a fight for the heir, after reaching the most ridiculous, everyone is familiar with stepping on the bones of countless people and bleeding into a river, the people may not see it, but the people in the palace are secretive, and those terrible scenes will be deeply implanted in the hearts of every palace person.

The doctors of the Tai Hospital were helpless, the Empress Dowager Yide was furious, and the death order was not successful, but Xuan Pei learned about it at a critical time, and suggested to the Empress Dowager Yide that maybe she could find Xia Qing, the holy hand of Jinling. Xia Qing and Xiao Shao are brothers, Empress Dowager Yide asked Xia Qing to come in, Xia Qing came quickly, after seeing the emperor's condition, she shook her head in the expectant eyes of Empress Dowager Yide, and only said eight words: "The poisoning is deep, and the medicine stone is ineffective." ”

As soon as these words came out, it was announced that the emperor's remaining life might not be long. Poisoning? The Empress Dowager Yide grasped the key to this, where did the emperor get the poison. After people checked the palace inside and out, they were stunned and didn't find out where the poison came from, and if they were as well-informed as Xia Qing, they couldn't see what the poison was. The poison was too deep, poisonous and ferocious, he had no time or means to save it, I am afraid that before he found out what the poison was, the emperor would have lost his life. Now it's a medicine hanging, but that's just a temporary solution, and there's no way to do it.

Empress Dowager Yide was furious, and said in front of all the imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital clan that if the emperor died, all the female dependents in the harem would be martyred. This is the cruelty of the royal family, these women may have lived in fine clothes and jade food during their lifetimes to make everyone envious, but in fact, they are just a thing attached to the emperor, the emperor is dead, and there is no need for their lives to live.

Empress Dowager Yide said it in front of the imperial doctor, but even so, the women in the palace still realized something. They didn't enter the palace on the first day, and the previous dynasty was not without the rules of concubines to accompany the funeral, the emperor fell so suddenly, and the harem was immediately filled with an atmosphere of fear, and everyone was anxious, almost the first time to pray for the emperor to be well as soon as possible.

Among the flustered palace dependents, there were two people who were unusual. One person is Mu Xirou, Mu Xirou is naturally a cold beauty, she is indifferent to everything on weekdays, and even the emperor's favor can't make her face look better. The other is Dong Ying'er, Dong Ying'er was in a gentle and stable mood after entering the palace, and she was a little too old-fashioned. These two people are not as flustered as others, but it is understandable.

It's just that how long can the current calm be hidden? Everyone knows that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

At this time in Nanyuan, Xuan Pei was sitting at the table, practicing words stroke by stroke, even at this time, he still had the heart to practice words, if others saw it, they would be very surprised. But surprisingly not so, from the word to the person, Xuan Pei's handwriting is very steady, obviously, he was not affected by the emperor's fall at all, he was as calm and calm as ever, as if he had expected this to happen.

"Your Highness, the Eighth Prince is ready to move now." Mingyue said: "This matter is a trap set by him, and now that Fang has started, he is bound to start an offensive, how can His Highness solve it?" ”

The emperor's poison was given by Xuanli, this is almost a matter of no doubt, Xuanpei knows that for this brother, with the understanding of the previous life, he can be said to understand Xuanli more than the emperor. This gentle and indifferent brother is so cruel in his heart, and he used this trick to kill his father lightly. The emperor fell off guard, but this poison was laid a long time ago.

Xuanli thought that he would take the initiative in this way, and when the emperor had not yet clearly established the crown prince, he would win in chaos, perhaps this was Xuanli's tactic, but for Xuanpei, going with the flow was also his tactic. Xuanli is ruthless, and Xuanpei is not soft-hearted, for example, in this life, he just watched the emperor being poisoned by Xuanli.
