The cold wind was blowing in the mountains and forests, and piles of prey were sent to the emperor stationed outside the mountains and forests.

The emperor sat in the tent that had been set up in advance, looking at the light of the fire in the brazier in front of him, and his eyes closed tiredly, and the darkness under his eyes showed that he had not slept well last night.

The eunuch Fan Li brought the tea, he had followed the emperor for decades, and he knew the emperor's mind best, seeing him like this at the moment, he only carefully comforted: "The emperor is tired, do you want to rest for a while?" At this time, the princes are still in the forest, will they come back for a while? ”

The emperor glanced at him, and Fan Li quickly sensed that his master was displeased, and immediately said: "The old slave is old, and he talks a lot for a while, and he asks the emperor to punish him." ”

Hearing him admit his mistake, the emperor's face became better, and he snorted: "You are old." ”

After that, as if with emotion, he leaned back and muttered, "I'm also old." "Therefore, I have worked so hard to fight for the country, and I have to pick out a qualified successor.

The Emperor's gaze looked through the curtain and seemed to see the bloody slaughter that was being staged wantonly in the snowy and misty forest.

After a while, he rubbed his eyebrows, drank the hot tea in the cup, and then asked, "Are all the people on the mountain still alive?" ”

Fan Li knew what the emperor was referring to, lowered his eyebrows, and was as humble as an old locust tree that couldn't straighten his waist: "I heard that Lord Li and Lord Liu wanted to send their family members down the mountain several times. They all called the guards to block it back. ”

"Them?"

The corners of the emperor's mouth flashed with a hint of ridicule, but it quickly disappeared: "The prince has not grown up for so many years, and I used to hold my knees to coax, why didn't I follow me for half a minute?" I can't restrain myself, and there are stupid people under my hands. ”

The emperor said, as if sighing, and asked Fan Li: "Do you say that I can't help it?" ”

When it comes to the throne, Fan Li knows that he is a eunuch. He had no right to beak it, and this time, the emperor didn't mean to ask him what he said.

"Yes, I am also helpless, these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, countless people, how can I hand these over to a mud that can't support the wall." The emperor smiled self-deprecatingly, and as soon as he finished speaking, someone came with news that something had happened in the forest.

When the bloody corpse was carried over, the people who went up the mountain today stood in the cold wind and snow, all of them stiffened, and even when the wind and snow blew into their eyes, no one dared to blink.

The fourth prince knelt on the ground, holding a broken arm, crying so much that he couldn't help himself.

"Father, the son never thought that the tiger that came out of the mountain was about to devour the son of the minister. It turned out to be the crown prince......"

The fourth prince cried, but his father's cold gaze fell on him, so that the lines that he had prepared a long time ago did not dare to continue for a while.

But the emperor's gaze quickly moved away from him, and then fell on the third prince who was also injured on one side but retained a life.

The emperor stared at the three princes, and his eagle-sharp old eyes seemed to see through him.

He thought that the prince would die, but he didn't expect that it would be such a death, and he was stabbed in half, and this knife still penetrated from behind.

"What's the matter with you?" The emperor asked.

"Back to my father, the sons heard the sound of fighting...... the third prince deliberately looked in the direction of the fourth prince: "So I went to investigate, but who knew that the guards in the fourth brother's mansion actually regarded the sons as beasts." ”

The word 'beast' seems to be deliberately referring to the words of the four princes.

The emperor looked at the undercurrent surging between the two sons, and snorted coldly in his heart, and then went to see the sixth prince who was also covered in injuries, but before he could speak, he saw a man with a goatee kneeling behind the fourth prince.

"Your Majesty, the grass people have something to say." Yang Daxian received the hinted eyes of the four princes, knelt down and spoke solemnly, his face solemn.

The emperor's eyes drooped, and he seemed to hesitate a little, but looking at the hidden fire in the eyes of the four princes full of tears, his expression darkened: "You are the strategist of the old fourth mansion?" If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

"Yes." Yang Daxian looked at today's bloody storm, and was already sure that what the third princess told him was true, and said righteously: "Today's incident is not accidental, Weichen has evidence to prove that all this today is completely the hands of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, and its purpose is self-evident." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the audience.

The three princes on one side frowned deeply, the prince is dead, Yang Daxian is useless to bite the prince this time, his purpose is to pull himself into the water as a supporter of the prince!

"Do you know what you're talking about?" The third prince looked at him coldly.

The dispute between the prince and the prince, even though everyone in the world knows about it, no one will dare to say it in the open, especially in front of the emperor.

But if the emperor believes it, the crown prince is dead, and the third prince and the sixth prince kill their brothers, then it will be impossible to be on the throne in the future!

Yang Daxian looked at death as if he were at home, glanced at the three princes, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his eyes: "This matter is what the three princesses said personally, the grass people not only have witnesses, but also physical evidence, if the emperor doesn't believe it, you can pass the three princesses to confront the grass people!" ”

When the third prince heard this, his handsome face was stunned for a moment, and then he clenched his palms tightly, that slut!

But before the third prince could speak, the emperor sneered: "Fourth, is this your staff?" ”

A fluttering word. There was neither blame nor questioning, but it was like a bomb, which exploded in the heart of the fourth prince in an instant, making him alarmed.

He subconsciously looked at Rong Ruizhang in the crowd, Rong Ruizhang also noticed that something was wrong, the bloody body of the prince was placed in front of the emperor, this emperor, who has always been gentle in front of people, did not show half of the pain of losing his son, but revealed a bit of killing intent from the bottom of his heart.

Rong Ruizhang's heart tightened, and he immediately nodded towards the fourth prince.

The four princes understood, didn't think about it, turned around and used the only remaining arm, pulled out the knife of the guard, and cut off the head of Yang Daxian in full view of everyone.

Yang Daxian's head rolled on the ground a few times, and rolled down to the feet of Qin Liangye, who was barely standing on the side, and he was still staring at a pair of eyes, and the bottom of his eyes was the puzzle and confusion left before he died.

The timid ladies in the crowd reacted to what was happening, and immediately screamed, but fortunately, their families covered their mouths in time.

"Father."

The fourth prince trembled and knelt in front of the emperor, and said: "This is indeed the staff of the Erchen Mansion, but he has not been on good terms with the Erchen for a long time, and the Erchen originally wanted to follow the Erchen for many years, but he never thought that he would have such a vicious mind and say today's bastard words!" ”

The words of the fourth prince are unknown. Bastard words, which sentence is a bastard word?

The third prince sneered: "The fourth brother is smart, let this staff put the blame on us and others, but you only picked yourself clean, and then killed this staff member, and also cut off the tongue of others to criticize you." Such a cunning rabbit and dead lackey cooking method can not be described as unintelligent. Why didn't the royal brother find out that you were so smart before? ”

The third prince looked at him gloomily and said even more damning words: "If this is the case, the crown prince and brother may have given up the position of the crown prince to you as soon as possible, and you will have to save your life in vain." ”

The face of the fourth prince turned as white as snow in an instant, and he hastily pulled the emperor's shirt to justify: "Father, the son has no intention of this......

"That's it!"

The emperor shouted angrily, glanced at the people present who already had different expressions, and then leaked a sad and tired state: "Today's matter, I will ask someone to investigate." Those who dare to do it to the princes today will all take off their heads and punish the three clans! ”

The onlookers hurriedly knelt down.

The emperor's punishment, where is the punishment of the princes, this is clearly a wake-up call to the people of all parties present!

For a while, those who were undecided began to have other thoughts.

Duchess secretly watched all this, glanced at a tall but ordinary-looking guard beside her, and silently returned to her camp.

But as soon as he returned, a eunuch came to spread the word, saying that the emperor had ordered that the prince should be suspended on the mountain for three days, and everyone did not have to go down the mountain. Mourning only on the mountain is.

"Three days."

After sending the eunuch away, the Duchess of Guo sneered, she was born as a military general, how could she not know the filthiness of these nobles in the palace?

I think the reason why she completely gave up military power and became a housewife who stayed at home was also a 'good idea' from those people in the palace!

"Three days is enough for the emperor to clean up those disobedient people in the capital."

Fang Cai followed the ordinary face of the Duchess to sit down and speak. Eighth Library

The Duchess looked at him with concern: "This time you came back quietly from the southwest, and you haven't rested yet, just these three days, you go back to accompany Qingqing, this child has suffered a lot of grievances, and he didn't take care of his mother." ”

"Mother don't worry, the child will go down later." Rong Che said calmly, but the rich ice in those dark eyes instantly softened.

"That's good." The Duchess leaned behind her before saying, "What do you think of today's events?" Brothers fight each other, and they really do it. ”

"I'm afraid that the emperor deliberately connived."

Rong Che had long been aware of the emperor's thoughts, and after entering Beijing last night. He went up the mountain to check in advance, and coupled with the layout of today's hunt, he knew that the emperor intended to connive, otherwise a few princes led people to fight and even kill people under his nose, how could he not know?

The only possibility, he knew, was that he was going to watch his sons kill each other.

The Duchess sat up straight in shock, looked at Rong Che in amazement, and after a while, she laughed again, but there was more disdain in this smile: "Also, didn't he come to the throne like this in the first place?" survival of the fittest, but he didn't expect that he would crawl out of that hell by himself, and he would even intend to let his sons go in for a walk. ”

"This time, I'm afraid the Guogong Mansion will no longer be able to stay out of the matter." Today, the six princes were ordered by the emperor to enter the forest, and it is obvious that the third prince and the fourth prince survived, so this fratricidal drama will continue to be staged.

The reason why the emperor didn't let Rong Che return to Beijing was that he also had this consideration, he didn't want Rong Che to participate in the battle between the princes, and he had to completely control the Guogong Mansion.

In the capital, the night has obscured the only bit of light in the sky.

Wei Qingqing looked at the faintly flickering candle flame, and only felt that his fingertips touched the words on the letter paper and felt slightly cold, not only for this shameful scene in the mountains and forests, but also for Rong Ruizhang!

She didn't expect that Rong Ruizhang would count the three princesses and Yang Daxian together. will kill them together!

"Has the news been sent to the third princess?" Wei Qingqing asked Leng Yin beside him.

Leng Yin glanced at her, under the dim candlelight, Wei Qingqing's gentle face revealed a bone-chilling cold, and those black and white eyes that were always smiling were more like a sharp knife at the moment, which was intimidating.

"Why do you care if she lives or dies, she has nothing to do with you?" Leng Yin said coldly.

Wei Qingqing raised his eyes to look at him, he was stunned, under her gaze. He was a little embarrassed, as if he was a despicable villain.

Leng Yin turned his face away uncomfortably: "I have been informed, but I look at her like that, and I won't listen to your escape, woman......"

Leng Yin originally wanted to say that women are all silk flowers, especially women who are married, all of them cling to men and live, so that they can survive alone from men. How can it be?

But Leng Yin thought of the woman in front of him in a blink of an eye, even if she didn't have Rong Che, she seemed to be able to live well.

After thinking about it, Leng Yin swallowed the next words.

"I see."

Wei Qingqing seemed to be a little disappointed, but this was also what she expected, when she went to see the third princess, she knew that she really loved the third prince, regardless of identity, or even whether the third prince liked her or not.

As expected.

Before the three princes returned to the mansion that night, the people of the three princes had already returned to the three princes' mansions and began to search.

"What do you do?"

The grandmother beside the third princess shouted angrily.

But the guards didn't seem to hear it, and no one was looking around for something.

Mama was angry, but seeing that the scolding and threats were useless, she walked inside, but saw that the third princess had changed into the prosperous and heavy vermilion embroidered peony dress she wore when she married the third princess, and was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, slowly drawing her makeup and hair.

"The Princess......

"Did you send the letter to your father?" The third princess asked softly.

Mama seemed to have guessed something, and her throat was very dry: "Princess, your mother's family is not an ordinary small family, you still have His Royal Highness's child in your womb, even if it is for the sake of the child's face, His Royal Highness will not ......"

"I know." The third princess knew that based on Yang Daxian's words alone, the three princes would not kill her, not to mention that now she was pregnant with the only sister-in-law of His Royal Highness, and after so many years of husband and wife, even if they didn't look at their own face, their maiden family was the secretary of the criminal department, and they always had a little face.

"I just want to put it on all of a sudden, and I don't know why."

The third princess smiled slightly, her sickly paleness was covered under the fat powder, and her eyes were gentle like a handful of water, gentle and tender, which made people pity.

Mama's tears suddenly fell: "If it weren't for the vixen of the side concubine, how could His Royal Highness snub the princess so much?" Besides, the princess, you are really good for Your Highness, why is Your Highness blinded and can't see it? ”

Mama said this. But the third princess didn't care, she only picked up the lip grease in her hand and slowly applied it to her lips, the bright red color, like blood, stinged her eyes.

Before the lip balm was finished, a guard ran out with a box in his hand.

The box carved with a dragon and a phoenix is the prince, and it is also something that must not be owned.

The moment she saw the box, Mama's face turned pale.

The third princess seemed to understand something, and the hand that applied lip grease paused slightly, and she understood in an instant.

She ignored the words of the guards and outsiders, and ignored the voice of the trembling grandmother on the side who told her to flee back to her parents' house quickly, only controlled her trembling hands, and finished applying lip grease before looking at her with a smile: "I finally know why I am wearing this dress today, it turns out that God told me how I came here in the first place, and how to go now." I owe him a favor. I'm going to give it back to him today. ”

"The Princess......

The third princess only smiled at Mama, and walked out of the door so calmly, looking at the ruthless guards, and smiling: "Since Concubine Wei started, I will leave my life here today, and only ask Concubine Wei to spare my family." ”

After speaking, the third princess suddenly turned ruthless: "Otherwise, I will turn into a powerful ghost, and I will never let her go!" ”

When the words fell, the third princess slammed her head on the pillar at the door.

The blood exploded in the snow, and the bright red color was like the lip grease, blooming on the pure blood, especially dazzling.

In the second half of the night, when Wei Qingqing heard the news that the third princess had committed suicide with a weak heart, her heart fell to the bottom.

"This is what my princess asked the slave to give to the young lady."

Yahuan's hair was unkempt, and there was no good meat on her body, and the third princess seemed to have expected what would happen, so she ordered her to wait at the corner gate early, and when something happened, she would bring her things to the Guogong Mansion.

Mama worked hard to let her run out, and she also found this place with one breath, but now that she saw that the thing was in Wei Qingqing's hands, she had no strength, so she fell directly to the ground and swallowed her breath.

Looking at the tragic corpse in front of him, Lan Sheng, who had always been calm, also frowned.

"The Three Princes' Mansion is now completely the world of Concubine Wei, and they are the domestic slaves of these Princes' Mansions, and they can kill them if they want, without any scruples." Lan Zhi gritted her teeth.

"This means that this day is really going to change."

Standing at the door, Wei Qingqing was dressed in a silver-white mink fur, and the snow fell on her drooping eyelashes, only hooking out the chill all over her body.

"Cold silver." Wei Qingqing spoke.

"Yes."

Leng Yin really didn't like to grovel so much in front of a woman, but when she saw Wei Qingqing's eyes that were so calm that there was no trace of waves, she subconsciously responded.

"I want you to go to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department immediately, tell the news that the third prince has been controlled by Wei Susu, and that there is another master behind Wei Susu, and escort his family out of Beijing safely, you can do it?" Wei Qingqing asked.

She knew the temper of Wei Susu and Rong Ruizhang, since they dared to kill the three princesses, then they would definitely not leave the Shangshu of the Criminal Department alive!

I'm afraid that the three princes who are intoxicated in Gentle Township at this moment don't know that what his heart loves in the next moment is his life!
