In the gloomy palace, there is not a single candle flame, and it is extremely cold, as if this is a corner forgotten by the world.

The old door was slowly pushed open, making a "creaking" sound, and also brought warm sunshine, Qin Yan raised his head carelessly, and when he saw the person coming, he was stunned at first, and then showed a hint of indifference, and with a hint of mockery, he didn't leave any affection for his cousin: "Who should I be, I was the princess of Jiangdu." ”

Qin Wan ignored his sarcasm and said lightly: "There must be a battle between Great Xia and Tubo. ”

Qin Yan restrained his contemptuous expression, sat up straight, and his eyes were already shining with a fierce light, so he heard Qin Wan say unhurriedly: "Great Xia and Tubo have made an alliance and will be friends forever. Once right and wrong arise at the border, the generals will inevitably restrain their hands and feet and dare not act rashly. If there is a royal family as handsome, many hidden dangers, let alone half of them. ”

Hearing her say this, Qin Yan suddenly laughed madly: "Princess Jiangdu, okay, sure enough, it is Princess Jiangdu, I, who killed my father and killed my brother, a great rebellion, a sinner who deserves a thousand cuts, you actually dare to use it, are you not afraid of being above the history and leaving a stench for thousands of years?"

"I never care about comments from people who don't matter." Qin Wan's expression was very calm, but he exuded a strong force that could not be refused, "I said that you are right, you are right, even if everyone in the world says that you are wrong, you are still right." ”

Qin Yan's laughter came to an abrupt end.

He collapsed on the table and did not say a word.

Why laugh

There is no other reason, just not wanting to cry in front of outsiders.

"King Lu rebelled, since he was expelled from the clan, I will order the King of Shu to modify the jade and re-record the name of King Liang." Ignoring Qin Yan's surprised look, Qin Wan said unhurriedly, "From now on, you will not be the son of King Lu, but the heir of King Liang, King of Liangjun." I give you military power, you can choose elite drills, and then if Tubo dares to attack, you"

"The fight made them frightened and did not dare to fight again"

Not a discussion, but an order.

Qin Yan was silent for a long time, and asked the last question: "If I target Tubo too much, what should my sister do" The loss suffered from my younger brother and the battle I lost, will I be angry with my sister by the incompetent Tubo Zampu, if this is the case, how can Princess Xingping live

Qin Wan stood up and looked at him with a hint of surprise, as if the question he asked was too ridiculous: "You don't understand"

"Understood"

"The strong have the right to reverse right and wrong." Qin Wan turned around, Chen Xuan pushed the door open for her, and saw her walking out, without looking back, only leaving a sentence, "And the weak don't even have the qualifications to cry." ”

The door was closed again, cutting off all sunlight, but it brought a glimmer of light and hope.

Qin Yan sat on the chair in a daze, only to feel empty.

Chen Xuan was thoughtful, and then listened to Qin Wan ask: "What are you thinking?"

"Back to Your Highness." Chen Xuan hurriedly said, "King Qin Liangjun, can he really figure it out?"

Qin Wan stopped and said slowly: "He will figure it out, there has never been real friendship between neighboring countries, and there is only superficial friendship and submission that secretly accumulates strength. The stronger Daxia is, the more the status of Princess Xingping can be guaranteed, which can already be seen clearly compared to the princess of Dayi and many princesses of the previous dynasty, not to mention" Qin Wan paused, and then said, "In Tibet, the only people who can enjoy sacrifices are their Zanmeng, that is, the queen." Even if she is a queen, she may not be able to honor the king and enjoy sacrifices, but she has this qualification. ”

Although Princess Xingping had a very high status in Tibet and enjoyed the honorific title of Zanmeng, and Zanpu personally crowned her and built a palace, she was still not a queen.

This is also a very normal thing.

Marrying a foreign woman is normal for a man, but for a king, it is almost impossible to make a foreign princess a queen. Unless this man is fascinated, he completely ignores the opinions of the country, especially the nobles, or there is a custom of intermarriage between the countries, or the other party comes from a very strong country, so strong that you can't fight it, you can only rely on it.

Just like Princess Dayi, she had Daxia as her help, and there was the division of the Eastern and Western Turks, so she became Da Kedun, and even returned to Daxia safely. As for the previous dynasty, whether it was the Han Dynasty or Yan's princess Heqin, especially in the early Han Dynasty, due to the force of foreign races, the princess Heqin had to be presented, that is, a more advanced plaything, and a few of them did not die at a young age

Chen Xuan felt a little emotion in his heart, so he heard Qin Wan say: "I'll give him three hours, if he can't come out, you will go in and kill him." ”

She only gave three hours of time, if Qin Yan could figure it out, he would be a high-powered King of Liangjun, if he couldn't figure it out for so long, then he didn't have to live.

Chen Xuan raised his head in slight shock, just in time to meet Qin Wan's indifferent but flawless side face.

This was something she would never have said before, but now it is an understatement, but it is natural and natural.

Chen Xuan was stunned, not knowing what to say, Qin Wan suddenly smiled: "Zishen, I once felt that everything I did should be worthy of my heart." If I could, it would be better not to sacrifice anyone, and even if I did, I would bear the sin alone. Only now do I realize how arrogant and conceited I am, and some people are not worthy of me. Xia Chen, do you say it?"

Chang Qing had already walked over and replied neatly: "Back to Your Highness, it has been investigated"

Although Chen Xuan is the commander of the Lijing Sect, when it comes to the cruelty and viciousness of torture methods, his knowledge of the human body structure, and the taboo of being a killer, he is far inferior to Changqing. It's just a matter of usual, but now that Qin Wan wants to find out in a short period of time, and Chen Xuan is on an important matter, it is natural that Chang Qing will be quick and ruthless.

Because of this, Chang Qing also added: "Some prisoners are delirious, and they must not be allowed to dirty His Highness's eyes." ”

Of course, his words were embellished, and those people were not delirious, they were simply not human. If Qin Wan insisted on going, he would see a scene that was thousands of times more cruel than the Shura Field.

Qin Wan also guessed this, in normal times, she would definitely persuade a few words, but at this time, there was no wave: "Say." ”

The reason for the incident is simple.

The two princes like to eat what Princess Fangling makes, and Princess Fangling will do more in order to please them. But in the end, she is the princess, not the cook, and the two princes, especially the seventh prince Qin Dang, have a very tricky mouth. I don't eat when it's cold, I don't eat it when it's not fresh, and I eat it whenever I want.

In this way, it is bitter for the imperial kitchen.

The prince is not satisfied with the food, and he is naturally unlucky, and the punishment is light, and it is common for him to be dragged out and never returned. Many of the imperial chefs are internal servants, helpless, only such a one-handed ability, so many years of serving the master has also come, but there is a pit on this, but he can't complain, so after several tosses, he begged Qiao Rui, hoping that he can divide the food with them, so that they can study hard and satisfy the seven princes.

These people's requests, Qiao Rui would not have agreed to his identity with these people, not to mention the difference between cloud and mud, but it seems to be the most impersonal in the palace, but in fact, it is the place with the deepest connections, you can't detect who has a relationship with whom, and what kind of affection is worth their risk.

It is very hard for an outsider to mix like a fish in water in the palace, especially Qiao Rui, who was targeted by Wu Li and many great Confucians, so he naturally needs connections and someone to help him. Otherwise, no matter how smart and capable you are, it will be useless, and you will turn a blind eye.

This is already a default thing in the palace, with the mood that more things are better than less things, everyone is hiding it, that's all.

After the pastries are put on the plate, of course, they will not be eaten at will, so as not to destroy the shape, which is also the reason why Qin Wan does not like to eat dim sum in the palace. Of course, she never felt that there would be a problem with dim sum, because all the dishes in the palace, including dim sum, were stared at when they were being made, and there was more than one pair of eyes. From the selection of materials, the kneading of the dough, the filling of the trap, to every step of the pot, and finally out of the pot, there are also special people to try it, to make sure that it is safe, before daring to serve it to the master. And the master may not know how to eat, once it is rewarded to the people around him, it will be a bloody storm.

There is only one possibility, which will make the enemy sure that this snack will definitely be eaten by the emperor. That is, this kind of dim sum has never been seen before, and the person who made it left everyone with the impression that he was good at developing dim sum and that everything he made was delicious, so Qin Ke held the mood of "trying it first" and twisted a piece of his stomach at will.

Of course, there are more insiders in this, involving the interests and reasons of more people. There are not only the people of King Lu, but also the remnants of King Wei, the remnants of King Zhao, and even those who have received the favor of Concubine Lan Li, including many "anti-food" Maybe they don't know what they are doing, what they want to do, what they do, just a favor, for kindness, love, friendship, or greed. But there's no denying that they're all part of the plan.

Qin Wan listened indifferently to Chang Qing's reply before asking, "Have you ever interrogated Fang Ling and Qiao Rui?"

Chang Qing replied: "Qiao Rui doesn't know about this matter, Princess Fangling looks at it, she should know, but the princess is a daughter, and the minister doesn't dare to offend." ”

"That poisonous pastry, that's what she did," Qin Wan said coldly, "Since that's the case, then there's no need to ask." Chen Xuan, you take someone to escort her to the Taiji Palace and stay outside the Taiji Palace. Then, all the concubines in the harem, the princes, princesses, and the clans who are qualified to enter the palace, all summoned to the palace, and let them stay in front of the Taiji Palace, and they were not allowed to move half a step."

Chen Xuan immediately replied: "Yes"

Chang Qing hesitated for a moment before asking: "Your Highness, do you want to inform Your Majesty and the Empress of this matter" He didn't know what Qin Wan was going to do, but Qin Qi was the emperor's daughter, and in such a big battle, he couldn't say anything without asking for instructions.

"No, from now on, everything will be at my disposal." Qin Wan's expression was so indifferent, without the slightest emotion, "I want everyone to watch it carefully, dare to rebel, what is the end?"
