Chapter 289: Farewell (1)
The crown prince was assassinated, and the king of Qin was also seriously wounded. Such sensational news spread throughout the capital within a day. Even the people in the streets and alleys learned of the shocking news.
Xu Jinyu also learned the amazing news from Xu Zheng.
"I heard that the emperor fainted on the Jinluan Palace today, and the queen mother also vomited blood and fell into a coma."
Xu Zheng had never met the prince, and he didn't have any good feelings or dislikes for the prince. However, as soon as the prince died, the people inside and outside the court were panicked and uneasy. It's hard not to be affected by it.
Xu Zheng has been frowning since he learned about this, looking preoccupied.
All of this has finally come!
After the death of the crown prince in the previous life, the seriously injured King Qin returned to Beijing to recuperate, and after his injuries healed, he became the most powerful contender for the prince. In this life, with the addition of Chen Yuanzhao, everything will be different
"Also, I heard that King Qin was also seriously injured. I really hope that he will die and never return to the capital. "If you say who Xu Zheng hates the most, King Qin is definitely the first! Hearing that King Qin was seriously injured, Xu Zheng only felt happy in his heart.
Xu Jinyu said lightly: "No matter whether King Qin can return to the capital or not, his end is already doomed, and he will never be our trouble again." ”
Xu Zheng was stunned and looked at Xu Jinyu.
It wasn't until this moment that Xu Zheng sensed that something was wrong. Such a shocking news, Xu Jinyu heard it but didn't have any special reaction, which is also too strange
Xu Zheng frowned and asked tentatively, "Sister." Could it be that the assassination of the prince has something else to do? What do you really know? ”
At this time, there is no need to hide Xu Zheng.
Xu Jinyu said in a low voice: "Chen Yuanzhao told me privately before that the prince left the capital and went to Shandong. has fallen for King Qin's tricks. Within a few months, we will see. Now it seems that King Qin has long made up his mind to assassinate the crown prince. ”
Xu Zheng was shocked: "According to what you say, the prince was assassinated, and it was King Qin's secret ghost!" But the king of Qin himself was seriously injured, and I heard that he blocked a sword for the crown prince."
Xu Jinyu pulled the corners of her lips: "This trick is really powerful!" If I hadn't learned about King Qin's conspiracy in advance, I wouldn't have been suspicious of King Qin. ”
Don't wait for Xu Zheng to react. Xu Jinyu said again: "Chen Yuanzhao has secretly surrendered to the King of Wei, and the King of Wei will never let go of this good opportunity to bring down the King of Qin." The eldest brother just needs to wait for the good news that King Qin's conspiracy has been revealed. ”
It even involved King Wei.
Xu Zheng was stunned, and only after a while did he say indignantly: "King Qin is good." King Wei is also a shrewd, deep-hearted and ruthless person. In order to compete for the throne, for his own selfish desires, he did not care about the life and death of the people. ”
Countless people in Shandong starved to death. There are not a few who have died in the civil unrest. The crown prince died in Shandong. The emperor's thunderous anger, I don't know how many people's heads will fall to the ground.
Xu Jinyu sighed: "Yes, the dispute between the prince is always accompanied by blood and rain. Unfortunately, no one can reverse this situation, and the only thing we can do is to protect ourselves. ”
Xu Zheng thought about it and sighed.
The brother and sister sat opposite each other for a moment, each thinking about it.
A knock on the door broke the silence in the room, and the voice of early summer rang out: "Miss." General Chen is here. "Because Xu Zheng is also there, I don't dare to call my uncle in early summer.
Xu Jinyu was slightly stunned. It's so late. Why did Chen Yuanzhao come over on purpose?
Xu Zheng was also quite surprised, and quickly reacted: "Hurry up and invite him in." ”
The night was dark and starry.
Chen Yuanzhao was dressed in a dark robe and strode over.
Xu Jinyu was already standing at the door to greet her, with a warm and concerned smile flashing in her eyes: "It's so late, why did you come here?" Isn't there anything important? ”
Chen Yuanzhao hummed, entered the house, and then opened his mouth and said, "I came over as soon as I left the palace." The emperor ordered me to lead 30,000 divine guards to Shandong to quell the civil unrest and find out the real culprit who assassinated the prince. Time is urgent, and we will leave in three days. I'm here to tell you that I'm going to be busy for the next three days, and I probably won't have time to see you. ”
When the army is mobilized, it takes a lot of time to prepare food, grass, and heavy weapons. In just three days, the time is indeed urgent.
This sudden news surprised Xu Jinyu: "Why did the emperor send you to Shandong?" ”
There was another person who went to Shandong in his previous life. Why is there such a change in this life? Could it be that Chen Yuanzhao took the initiative to ask for help?
Because Xu Zheng was also present, it was inconvenient for Xu Jinyu to ask too carefully.
However, Chen Yuanzhao obviously understood what she really wanted to ask, and responded briefly: "His Royal Highness the King of Wei took the initiative to ask to go to Shandong, and the emperor was sympathetic to the inconvenience of His Royal Highness the King of Wei's leg disease, so he specially asked me to go." ”
Xu Jinyu frowned slightly: "The situation in Shandong is unclear and very dangerous. You have to be extra careful when you lead your troops. ”
The King of Qin was cunning and insidious, and he did not know how many dead soldiers were arranged in Shandong. If he secretly makes another move on Chen Yuanzhao, Chen Yuanzhao's trip will be too dangerous
Chen Yuanzhao saw her worry, pulled the corners of his lips and said, "You don't have to worry about me. If King Qin sends someone to do something to me, I can just catch some live mouths. ”
The prince is pampered and pampered, and he can't even hold a knife steadily. The king of Chu carefully set up a situation, lured the prince into a trap, and sent some highly skilled dead soldiers, so that the prince died.
He has been on the battlefield for a long time, has excellent skills, and has 30,000 elite soldiers, and the soldiers around him are also brave and good at fighting. If you want to assassinate him, it is impossible to succeed.
With the shrewdness of King Qin, he would never do such a stupid thing.
Xu Zheng couldn't help but interject: "King Qin is ruthless, it's better for you to be careful." ”
The concern from the eldest brother is really rare, Chen Yuanzhao was a little flattered, stretched his brows and said, "I know in my heart, it will be fine." ”
Xu Zheng said bluntly: "It's best if you're fine." Anyway, my sister hasn't married into the Chen family yet, if you have three longs and two shorts, I will choose another wishful husband for my sister. ”
Chen Yuanzhao: ""
He's about to go on an expedition, is it appropriate for my eldest brother to say that?!
Xu Jinyu couldn't help but purse her lips and laughed: "Big brother, don't laugh." ”
Xu Zheng teased Chen Yuanzhao a little, his mood was much better, and he smiled casually: "That's it, you two will talk for a while, I'll go out for a walk, so as not to be an eyesore here." ”
With his hands behind his back, Shi Shiran walked out.
The eldest brother is much more "understanding" than before. Without waiting for him to hint, he took the initiative to leave!
The slight depression in Chen Yuanzhao's heart suddenly dispersed, and he took two steps forward and took the lovely person in front of him into his arms. (To be continued......)
