Ruoxi burst out laughing. Looking at Chu Haochu's appearance, he knew that he had a plan.

As Hao Chu expected, the people of the King of Nanyang followed the traces deliberately left by Hao Chu and soon discovered the mystery of the Qinglou. With a wave of his hand, King Nanyang directly raided the Qinglou.

After watching enough of the play, Haochu quietly left through the back door with Ruoxi.

"It will take half a month at most for the people of the King of Nanyang to arrive in Changping, and when the coup is completed, Luo Li will naturally end up without a problem. It seems that he wants to get rid of us together to prevent future troubles. "Ruoxi's purpose for coming to Nancang, Shangguan Jinglin knows it well, and he knows that once Ruoxi is allowed to return to Liguo, he will inevitably become his strongest opponent in the future. It's better to take advantage of the present time and cut through the mess quickly.

What Haochu said, Ruoxi also thought of it. However, Ruoxi is more worried that in the face of monstrous power, Shangguan Jinglin will lose his heart.

Hao Chu was taken aback, "You mean, Shangguan Jinglin killed us, not just to prevent future troubles, but to prevent us from destroying Luoli?!" ”

That's right. Ruoxi's eyebrows added a few sorrowful colors. Although Shangguan Jinglin had covered it up well just now, Ruoxi still noticed the frenzy that flashed in her eyes.

The world is impermanent. I thought that Shangguan Jinglin still turned his face with the emperor because of the consensus of destroying Luo Li and formed an alliance with Ruoxi, but I didn't expect that time had passed, and Shangguan Jinglin himself had become one of the promoters.

"In the face of power, people's hearts are fickle."

"Don't worry, today's trouble is enough for Shangguan Jinglin to be busy for a while." Hao Chu comfortingly took Ruoxi into his arms, and the two walked forward side by side, walking on the street after the rain. If there is no wind and clouds in the dark, it is also a peaceful beauty.

Ruoxi guessed correctly, Shangguan Jinglin did have such thoughts. Suppressing ambition is not the same as not having ambition. When he walked towards the throne step by step, his sleeping ambition gradually woke up.

"Lord Qiqi, the hidden stake of Liguo has been found. Suspicious people have been taken down. ”

"Good!" Shangguan Jinglin was immersed in his own fantasies, and at the same time sighed at his own talent. Unexpectedly, this time, he was clever but was mistaken by cleverness, and lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot.

Shangguan Jinglin rushed to the heavenly prison, as long as he asked Ling Ruoxi's hiding place, no one would be able to stop him in the future Liguo, plus Luo Li's help, dominating the world was just around the corner.

"Lord Wang, that person has already been recruited, they are Xichen's secret stakes." The cell boss replied respectfully.

"Okay." Shangguan Jinglin had just said a good word, when his footsteps suddenly stopped, and he didn't hear the words of the cell boss, "What did you say?" ”

The cell boss replied again. Immediately next to him, there were guards handing over the letters found in the Qinglou, all of which had not yet had time to be destroyed, although they were not confidential, but they could roughly see who these secret piles were ordered.

"Huangfu Xuanye?" It took a long time for Shangguan Jinglin to realize that he had been tricked by Ling Ruoxi. "Ling-Ruo-Xi!" Shangguan Jinglin gritted his teeth and greeted Ruoxi and Haochu again, making the already gloomy prison even more gloomy.

Shangguan Jinglin calmed down and understood that now was not the time to deal with Ling Ruoxi.

Huangfu Xuanye is a person who has also heard of it, and his mind is deep, and he is not a person who is easy to deal with. Although the matter of the dark pile cannot be put on the table, Huangfu Xuanye will not attack him openly. But this move is tantamount to declaring war on Huangfu Xuanye, with his temperament of retribution, I am afraid that he will not let himself go easily. Now is the moment of truth, and there is no room for error.

Shangguan Jinglin couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while, and he had a headache, so he counted all the bad debts on Ling Ruoxi's head.

"Oh? So, you and Huangfu Xuanye know each other? Ruoxi told Haochu about the true and false prince.

Unexpectedly, Ruoxi and Huangfu Xuanye still had such an experience, "What do you think, with Huangfu Xuanye's temperament, what will he do?" ”

This Huangfu Xuanye, whether it is in Liguo or Nancang, Chu Haochu has heard of it. Although he is an unfavored second son born to an unfavored concubine, he is scheming, good at forbearance, and is by no means a thing in the pool. Haochu even predicted with Ruoxi that Xichen would eventually fall into the hands of Huangfu Xuanye.

The two of them wrote down their thoughts on a piece of paper at the same time. When they looked, the two thought of one place.

On the rice paper, which was as light as cicada wings and as white as snow, four sharp characters were left at the same time, "Shangguan Jingnan." ”

Huangfu Xuanye will not be willing to suffer such a big loss, and the best way to punish Shangguan Jinglin is to kill people with a knife.

Shangguan Jinglin's life is not easy these times. Shangguan Jingnan is so good that he has been the emperor for so many years, and the emperor's skills are still one or two. Especially when Shangguan Jinglin's anti-heart is obvious, there is no need for him to carry a mask of brother, friend and brother. cut off several arms of Shangguan Jinglin in a row. Either the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, or the generals and officers of the army, kill and arrest.

"Lord, the emperor invites you to enter the palace." The guards reported through the door.

At this time, it is definitely not a good thing to find him to enter the palace. Shangguan Jinglin quickly calculated all the possibilities in his heart.

"Lord Wang, you can't go." Feng Zizhen was worried that the emperor would jump over the wall in a hurry, which would be unfavorable to Shangguan Jinglin.

But if you don't go, you will leave yourself with the charge of "disrespecting the will", and the emperor will have even more reason to attack them. It will take a week for their men and horses to enter Beijing, and it is not a wise move to turn against the emperor at this time.

"Don't worry, old general, my imperial brother pays the most attention to reputation, and if he wants to do it, he will do it a long time ago, and he will not wait until now." Shangguan Jinglin is sure that Shangguan Jingnan has no reason and will not act rashly, otherwise it will be difficult to block the mouth of the ministers of the DPRK and the central government.

But he missed a step.

After taking off Xichen's dark pile, Huangfu Xuanye has not taken action, which made Shangguan Jinglin gradually relax his vigilance. He never expected that Huangfu Xuanye would send the evidence of his rebellion to Shangguan Jingnan's case.

"King Nanyang, what else do you have to say?"

Shangguan Jinglin looked at the incriminating evidence thrown in front of him, which was all evidence of his troop transfer. Shangguan Jinglin is not stupid, at this time, admitting it is looking for death, "Brother Mingjian, the minister has never had the heart of disobedience, this move must be Xichen's conspiracy, I want you and my brother to centrifuge, so that they can profit from it." ”

"Hmph," Shangguan Jingnan snorted coldly, knowing that he would say this, fortunately he was prepared, "King Nanyang will take a look at this first." ”

The little eunuch handed the things in Shangguan Jingnan's hand to Shangguan Jinglin. He received this secret report a few days earlier, and in order to kill it with one blow, Shangguan Jingnan specially sent people to go to the north and several other places, and only after confirming it was undoubtedly summoned Shangguan Jinglin into the palace.

"Since there is no rebellion, the king of Nanyang might as well explain and explain, what is the intention of mobilizing the northern army?!"

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were in an uproar. The antipathy of the king of Nanyang is already obvious.

But overnight, the king of Nanyang, who was in the limelight, was reduced to a prisoner.

"Lord Wang, what's going on?" Feng Zizhen bribed the jailer and mixed in.

Shangguan Jinglin couldn't help but sigh, he was too light on the enemy. "It's Huangfu Xuanye."

Huangfu Xuanye, the fourth prince of Xichen? How can he have anything to do with his prince?

In Feng Zizhen's puzzled gaze, Shangguan Jinglin told the cause and effect of the whole thing. "The above official Jingnan's temperament, I'm afraid it won't let me live too long."

Feng Zizhen knew that it was too easy to light a fire in the heavenly prison and create an accident, creating the illusion of accidental death.

"Don't worry, I have already arranged it, just waiting for the emperor to do it. Our people will be able to arrive in Beijing in three or five days. "After the defeat was revealed, there was no point in concealing the march, so it was better to rush to Changping in a hurry. Fortunately, he still has a hand, so he will not be at a loss.

"Okay, I'm tired of the general. Where is the queen mother? "Feng Zizhen does things, Shangguan Jinglin has always been relieved, the only thing he is worried about is the queen mother. The queen mother insisted on staying in the palace, but she was afraid that it would be ......

"The emperor cherishes his reputation and will not do anything to the queen mother, and I have already sent additional people to protect it secretly."

Feng Zizhen couldn't stay here for too long, and left in a hurry after finalizing everything with Shangguan Jinglin.

As the two of them expected, Shangguan Jingnan really didn't let him wait too long.

The dungeon was too quiet tonight. Through the small window, the occasional sound of insects or two came in, which set off the silence.

Shangguan Jinglin has been closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.

The sound of footsteps is even more abrupt on a night like this. There was also the sound of dripping water.

Shangguan Jinglin was as steady as Mount Tai, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, everything was in his plan.

Shangguan Jinglin's kung fu is not weak, and his hearing is naturally good. A few dull sounds came clearly into his ears. Then came the sound of his generals cracking the locks.

"Lord Wang, it's all arranged." The people of the King of Nanyang have been staring at the heavenly prison, waiting for the emperor to make a move, and then they will wait for the opportunity to act.

Tonight, as soon as they saw these people sneakily carrying firewood and grass into the prison, and pouring fire oil and spirits, they knew that the emperor was going to do it.

They took advantage of this time to steal the day, moved a corpse similar to the size of King Nanyang into it, and set fire to the prison, creating the illusion of accidental fire and death.

Ruoxi looked at the raging fire in the distance, and wondered, "Isn't it going to take two days for King Nanyang's manpower to arrive?" "It turned out that the military generals and ministers who were close to him were all beheaded by the emperor and placed under house arrest; The mobilized troops were all annihilated by Shangguan Jingnan, where did this come from?

Chu Haochu tightened the cloak on his body and responded, "The King of Nanyang has other forces in the city. Although there are not many people, they are all good players with one block of hundreds. "This part of the force was secretly cultivated by Feng Zizhen for the King of Nanyang on the order of the Queen Mother, just in case of emergency.

"I see. The Queen Mother really took great pains for Shangguan Jinglin. ”

It seems that this struggle for power will soon come to an end.

There is not much time left for them, they must find Leng Tian as soon as possible, once he is controlled by Shangguan Jinglin, it will be even more difficult for Ruoxi and the others to do it again.

"Pavilion Master, Lord, Kyoto Secret Letter." Su Ye's voice came.

Ruoxi glanced at the secret letter and handed it to Haochu, "With this evidence, I am sure that I can convince Leng Tian, the problem is that this person seems to have disappeared out of thin air, and he can't be found at all." ”

What was contained in the letter was the secret letter that Shui Hua found in Yuwang's Mansion, which was enough to explain the truth that Yuwang bought the killer, killed everyone in Dongfang Mansion, and framed Nangong Chen.
