Although it is still winter in Kyoto Prefecture, it is rarely sunny.

The weather was nice, the sun was big and the sun was shining.

Kong Xu put his hand on his eyes and looked at the somewhat dazzling sunlight.

"This eldest prince is really good at choosing the time, such a good day, he actually asked someone to inform me that he is going to Kyoto."

Regarding Chu Zizhan's itinerary, Kong Xu had already received a notice from the person sent by Chu Zizhan in advance. Naturally, Kong Xu also sent someone to inform the crown prince Chu Ziya of this matter, as for whether this Chu Ziya will take action, it is not what Kong Xu has to worry about here.

The relationship between the two princes in the court is already a well-known thing, especially after the second prince Chu Ziya was set as the crown prince, the relationship between the two princes seems to have become extremely tense.

And Kong Xu always felt that a few days ago, Chu Ziya asked Miss Xiaoyan to invite him to Tianxiang Building, in addition to watching Su Ling'er's performance, there should be another purpose, especially the sentence that the prince asked him at the end.

"Why did my father let my eldest brother go to Qijiazhuang on purpose?"

Kong Xu has been thinking about this sentence for the past few days, after all, as an old fritter in officialdom, even if it seems to be ordinary words, there will always be a deep meaning.

"Why did you go to Qijiazhuang" Kong Xu muttered at that time, and then said to Chu Ziya, "Your Majesty's intentions naturally have Your Majesty's intentions, and this old minister is unknown." ”

Kong Xu naturally didn't lie in this sentence, he didn't know why Chu Boxiong wanted the eldest prince to go to Qijiazhuang, it stands to reason that Qijiazhuang has been in the same breath with the royal family of Chu since the first battle of Liuling, if there is really something that can't be done there, Chu Boxiong just needs to send someone over casually, it is okay, and it seems that there is no need to go to great lengths to let the eldest prince bring the black armor guard over.

You must know that the existence of the Black Armor Guard is an insurmountable existence for any force, and the battle of Liuling made the Black Armor Guard shine, and the Liuzhou Ye family made them wear a fierce and murderous coat.

"What happened in Qijiazhuang to use the black armor guard," Kong Xu said secretly in his heart.

In fact, this is also a problem that the crown prince Chu Ziya is thinking about, and he didn't care about the movements of the eldest prince, especially when he learned that his eldest brother was sent to Qijiazhuang by his father, he thought it was just an ordinary dispatch, after all, what happened in Qijiazhuang was also a participant in it, and he didn't think that there was anything there worthy of Chu Boxiong's attention, or Chu Zizhan's attention

It was just that when he learned that Chu Boxiong asked Chu Zizhan to bring the black armor guard, Chu Ziya's mind was completely different.

At the beginning, Chu Ziya accepted Qi Lei, the second master of Qijiazhuang, "for help", just because in this way he could control Qijiazhuang through the superior Qi Lei, although Chu Ziya knew that the probability of Qijiazhuang wanting to break away from the royal family was almost none, but no matter what the result was, the benefits to himself existed, that is, Qi Jiazhuang would only serve himself from now on.

It's just that Chu Boxiong's later arrangement made Chu Ziya a little worried about whether his plan would be revealed, so he let the Jiang sisters go back to Qijiazhuang, things go smoothly and it is nothing, if Qi Lei fails, their task is to get rid of Qi Lei.

Chu Ziya didn't get the answer he wanted from Kong Xu, so he let Kong Xu leave Tianxiang Building, but when he left, he instructed, "Remember that there is news from the eldest prince and inform me." ”

Thinking of this, Kong Xu rubbed his somewhat swollen forehead, and his forehead, which was not wide enough, was so soft that it turned red by him.

Kong Xu stood in the courtyard with a headache for a while, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he shouted outside, "Dongzi, prepare the carriage, I'm going to pick up people." ”

"My eldest brother is coming back" Chu Ziya half-leaned on the bed, holding a book in one hand, and then looked at the little eunuch who came to report the news in front of him.

"Exactly, someone came to the Confucian Mansion just now, and I want to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that the Grand Prince's convoy is going to enter Kyoto Mansion."

Chu Ziya smiled, then ignored the little eunuch in front of him, and continued to read there by himself.

The little eunuch who was hanging there was indeed a little embarrassed, but he didn't know what he should do, so he had to kneel there and didn't dare to move, just hoping that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of him could think of him earlier.

Chu Ziya didn't let the little eunuch wait too long, so he slowly put down the book in his hand and looked at the little eunuch kneeling there with a smile.

At this time, the little eunuch was not happy because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finally remembered him, but was a little uncomfortable by the other party's gaze.

The little eunuch was a little flustered, he didn't know what he had done wrong, and he let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince look at him like this, that feeling was like being targeted by a poisonous snake, and he couldn't help but have a trace of fear in his heart, and then slowly magnified infinitely in his heart, until his heart began to collapse.

Yes, the little eunuch collapsed, and the panic in his eyes turned into fear, and then suddenly

Ran kowtowed to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of him, like a chicken that kept pecking.

Chu Ziya didn't stop it, but watched the little eunuch in front of him keep kowtowing to himself to admit his mistakes, watching him knock his forehead red, knock purple, and then knock the red liquid out of his forehead, soaking the ground under him.

The little eunuch fainted to the ground, Chu Ziya still looked at him with a smile, and then slowly shook his head.

There was a soft knock on the door, and there was a sound outside.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, there is news from the spies outside."

Chu Ziya finally spoke, as if he was waiting for this news.

"Come in." Chu Ziya sat up from the bed, tidied up his clothes, but didn't look at the little eunuch who fainted on the ground.

The door opened lightly, and another man in a eunuch uniform pushed the door in, but when he looked closely, he found that this person was different. is fair-skinned, but none of the women in the palace are like this.

Chu Ziya did not take the paper handed over by the other party and memorized the news, but raised his right hand, and gently stroked the man's face with his index finger, his movements were extremely ambiguous.

The person who came in to deliver the news did not dodge, and let Chu Ziya's index finger run across his cheek.

The delicate skin is crossed by the fingertips.

"Xiaoyan, I suddenly found that you look pretty good dressed up like this."

It turned out that the person who came to deliver the news was the little cigarette girl who invited Kong Xu that day.

After Chu Ziya finished speaking, he laughed, then changed the topic and said to Xiaoyan, "What's the news from outside?"

"The eldest prince and his entourage have stayed at a post station twenty miles away, and they will be able to enter Kyoto Mansion tomorrow." Smoke replied.

Chu Ziya narrowed his eyes slightly, and then the corners of his mouth provoked an imperceptible arc, and said to himself, "My eldest brother, he is too suspicious, he told everyone in Kyoto Mansion on his face that he was about to enter Kyoto Mansion, and at the same time, he secretly lived in the post station, not afraid that I would make a move in secret." ”

Chu Ziya pressed his fingers hard, and the paper in his hand instantly turned into powder and floated into the air.

"Since he's afraid that I'll make a move, then let's follow his wish and tell the people outside that I'll go to the post station tonight to find out the bottom of my big brother."
