Not long after Wei Ran left, the crown princess was still immersed in Wei Ran's uncontrollable words just now, when she saw Ji Zhao hurriedly walk into her bedroom and said to her, "Mother, the third uncle is here!" ”

"Mother! You, what's wrong? Seeing that the crown princess was still in a daze, Ji Zhao on the side asked again.

"Oh-" The crown princess immediately came back to her senses, glanced at Ji Zhao and asked, "It's nothing, what did you just say?" ”

"The third uncle came and said that he had something to discuss." Ji Zhao said.

"Let him in!" The crown princess said lightly, what she said to Wei Ran just now seemed to have consumed too much experience, and now she looked very tired, so she sat on the couch to rest.

At this time, Ji Zhao and Wei Huang had already entered the dormitory.

Wei Huang saw that the crown princess's face was a little pale, so he asked with concern, "You are okay, right?" ”

"Third uncle, please take a seat! I'm fine, I'm just a little tired, just rest! The crown princess said to Wei Huang, paused and asked, "I don't know what the third uncle of Lu Dao is looking for me?" ”

"We have already set a plan before, to deal with Ji Qingchen with Ji Qian, but now His Majesty has issued an order to strengthen the guards of the palace, I am afraid that our plan will not succeed, this time I just want to ask you what we should do next, is it to continue to act? Or—" Wei Huang asked the Crown Princess, he was the spokesperson of the Wei Clan in King's Landing, but his purpose in King's Landing was to cooperate and assist the Crown Princess, so in many cases he had to obey the Crown Princess's command.

"We can't plan to act in the original plan, so that we will not only suffer heavy losses, but may also expose ourselves, so that Your Majesty will know that if we do it, we will be furious, and we will fall short at that time." The crown princess replied resolutely, "Let's wait and see!" I think Ji Qian should retreat after knowing the news, if he is no longer interested, he is not worthy of our cooperation with him. ”

"Yes, indeed!" Wei Huang nodded. As if hesitating for a moment, he asked again, "I saw Wei Ran at the door just now, and I found that her face was also ugly, there wouldn't be a conflict between you sisters, right?" ”

"Nope!" The crown princess immediately denied it.

In fact, she didn't know why Wei Ran would suddenly ask her such a question, and would care so much about this matter? Is it because of something related to Ji Qingchen? Wei Ran likes Ji Qingchen, she knows it, but the key is that Ji Qingchen doesn't like Wei Ran! So even if you like it, what can you do? Affection is impossible to force. But thinking of Wei Ran, the crown princess's mind came to the words that Wei Ran told her, "You won't like him, will you?" As soon as these words came to the crown princess's mind, the crown princess's body was shocked, and there was an inexplicable emotion in her heart, which seemed to be like being in a thick fog, making her unable to see herself clearly, and also seeing what her feelings were like in the world, but at least she was sure of one thing, that is, she didn't hate Ji Qingchen, and she also admired this young and heroic prince of Dayan, her own uncle.

Wei Huang saw that today's crown princess's expression was a little dazed, and he was about to leave, when he saw a maid hurriedly walk into the dormitory and said to the crown princess, "Princess, Mr. Gu of Zhennan Wangfu asks to see you!" ”

"Zhennan Palace? It's Ji Qian—" Wei Huang was taken aback, his eyes moved to the crown princess and asked, "Have you heard of this Mr. Gu?" ”

The crown princess immediately retracted her thoughts and said, "He is the madman Gu Qi, who met Ji Qian in Yizhou and followed Ji Qian into King's Landing City, it was he who gave advice to Ji Qian, so that Ji Qian subdued Yulin Qi during his father's serious illness, and let himself supervise the country, and forced Pei Wenju to give up the power of the government, gave it to Cui Jingsheng, and promoted Cui Jingsheng to the prince, and Li Muzhi also said that he fell to Ji Qian." This man is very strategic, and he is cautious, and he doesn't know what his purpose is here, but we must be careful about the right reasons. ”

"Yes!" Wei Huang nodded slightly. The crown princess said to the maid, "You let him wait in the main hall, and I will go over." The maid took the order and walked out of the dormitory.

"Third uncle, let's go and meet this Mr. Gu together!" The crown princess sorted out her thoughts and said to Wei Huang on the side.

"It's okay, today I'll go out to meet Ji Qian's chief strategist and see what he is capable of!" Wei Huang said, followed behind the crown princess, and walked to the main hall with the crown princess and Ji Zhao.

Gu Qi came to the East Palace to see the crown princess, naturally because of Ji Qian's order, so that he and the crown princess conspired to continue to deal with Ji Qingchen. Therefore, as soon as he entered the main hall, he sat on a chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and did not even take a sip of the tea served by the maid.

"Let Mr. Gu wait for a long time!" Just when he was waiting for a stick of incense in the main hall, he heard a warm and gentle voice in his ears, he looked up, and saw a young woman in palace clothes with a beautiful face walked into the hall, and the young woman was followed by two people, one was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, Gu Qi guessed that he might be Ji Zhao, and the other was a middle-aged man, Gu Qi couldn't guess his identity, but he could appear in the identity of the crown princess, his identity was definitely not low.

"I've seen the Crown Princess and Her Royal Highness!" Gu Qi immediately stood up and saluted.

"Mr. Gu, please take a seat!" The crown princess said politely, walked to the main seat and sat down, and she didn't introduce Wei Huang's identity to Gu Qi, Gu Qi also didn't ask.

"Mr. Gu, please drink tea!" After sitting down, the crown princess said.

"Thank you, Crown Princess!" Gu Qi said politely, took a sip of the teacup, and put down the teacup, his movements were very natural, there was no contrived attitude, he was very calm and relaxed, which made the crown princess and Wei Huang on the side appreciate it very much.

After a long time, the crown princess couldn't help it, and asked, "I don't know what Mr. Gu came here for?" ”

"Naturally, I came on behalf of the king of Zhennan to discuss with the crown princess how to deal with the king of Northern Liao!" Gu Qi didn't beat around the bush, but said straight to the point.

"Mr. Gu isn't joking, is he?" The crown princess sneered, "Does King Zhennan think that our orphans and widows are so easy to mess with?" ”

"Why did the crown princess say this?" Gu Qi still asked calmly, without showing a trace of strange expression because of the crown princess's anger.

"Doesn't the King of Zhennan know that His Majesty has issued an order to strengthen the guards of the Northern Liao Palace? At this time, how dare we disobey His Majesty and make a move against the King of Northern Liao? The crown princess said coldly.

"This is the Crown Princess's misunderstanding of His Royal Highness!" Gu Qi explained with a faint smile, "His Royal Highness also knew the news, but His Royal Highness still did not change his original intention, he wanted to cooperate with the crown princess, not to join forces with the crown princess to deal with Ji Qingchen, but as long as we can reduce Ji Qingchen's strength and let Ji Qingchen suffer a heavy blow, our task will be completed, and the original agreement between the crown princess and His Royal Highness is still in effect, and His Royal Highness will give you what you want." ”

"Is this true?" Before the crown princess finished speaking, Ji Zhao on the side asked happily.

"Naturally, it's true, Gu Qi has a few dares to deceive the crown princess and His Royal Highness." Gu Qi said with a smile.

And at the moment when Ji Zhao spoke, the crown princess's face turned cold, because Ji Zhao's eager performance had already exposed their thoughts, but she didn't have the intention of reprimanding Ji Zhao in front of Gu Qi, so she could only sigh slightly and ask Gu Qi at the same time, "If you want to hit Ji Qingchen hard, it's not very easy, I don't know what specific plans Mr. Gu has?" ”

"There is a plan, but I am afraid that the crown princess will not dare to act if she hears it!" Gu Qi said a little contemptuously, and in his words, he seemed to look down on the Shangzhou Wei family, and he seemed to look down on the crown princess.

"Please Mr. Gu!" The crown princess was annoyed by Gu Qi's arrogant look and said coldly.

"With the holy decree of His Majesty, we want to deal with Ji Qingchen in King's Landing, this is indeed too difficult, that is, we will unite with you, with the strength of the six hundred dead soldiers in our hands, it will be difficult to attack the Northern Liao Palace, and give Ji Qingchen a fatal blow, maybe the real culprit will be found out by His Majesty, and the gains outweigh the losses." Gu Qi said, "But it's much easier to hit Ji Qingchen hard." ”

"Because in addition to Ji Qingchen of the Northern Liao Palace, he still has some of his power in Northern Liao, and some of his power in Beirong, we want to deal a heavy blow to him, as long as we eliminate a few of his henchmen and generals, as long as we solve the 'iron-clad' dead soldiers who he has already ordered to withdraw from King's Landing, our goal will be achieved." Gu Qi said his plan in one breath.

However, after listening to Gu Qi's plan, the crown princess did not say anything, but her face turned even paler.

After a long time, I saw her open her mouth and said, "Mr. Gu's plan is too much, Northern Liao and Beirong are both within the scope of Ji Qingchen's power, if you want us to go deep into the hinterland of Northern Liao and Beirong to assassinate the generals of the army, I am afraid this is more difficult, it is not easier than attacking the Northern Liao Palace." ”

"Crown Princess, what you ask for is not small!" Gu Qi said coldly, "Don't you know what difficulty means to get how much you give?" ”

"You-" The crown princess was choked by Gu Qi's words, and she didn't know how to refute it for a while.

"If we complete His Highness's mission, will His Highness be able to fulfill his promise?" At this moment, Wei Huang on the side asked, his eyes staring at Gu Qi with a cold gaze, as if he wanted to see Gu Qi through.

"Shangzhou is where your Wei clan is foundation, and it may be difficult to assign His Royal Highness to Shangzhou Town." Gu Qi said very seriously, "But as long as you complete the task, it is still okay to seal His Highness to a border place like Xining Prefecture or Suzhou." You should also know that now that the three kings have united and monopolized the power of the court, His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan will not have a good time! ”

"Suzhou and Xining?" The crown princess asked slowly.

"These two states are not richer than Shangzhou, but they also have their own advantages, that is, they are close to Liguo and Xishu, and it is not difficult for you to take advantage of the border land to form a new army." Gu Qi said, "His Royal Highness the King of Zhennan can agree to this matter now, as long as His Royal Highness is in Suzhou or Xining Prefecture, he can give you the right to recruit 50,000 troops." ”

"Really?" Ji Zhao asked. Not only Ji Zhao, as soon as Gu Qi's words fell, even Wei Huang on the side opened his mouth and asked, "What you said counts?" ”

"Naturally!" Gu Qi nodded slightly.

"Okay, we agreed to King Zhennan's request, but please Mr. Gu go back and tell Ji Qian, and I hope he will also honor our promise when the time comes!" The crown princess said very simply.

"Please rest assured, princess!" Gu Qi replied, said goodbye to the crown princess, Wei Huang and Ji Zhao, and left the East Palace in great strides.

"Could this be a conspiracy?" When Gu Qi left for a long time, Wei Huang hadn't come back to his senses yet, and muttered to himself.

"No, there are also people from Ji Qian in this plan, if we seize his handle, we are not afraid that he will repent and frame us." The crown princess said very firmly, "Besides, the three kings jointly suppressed Ji Qian, Ji Qian also needs us as an ally, otherwise he will not give us the right to recruit troops." ”

"Well, since that's the case, then I'll arrange and deploy it now!" Wei Huang thought for a moment and said to the crown princess, and then left the East Palace.

And the crown princess glanced at Ji Zhao, who was already overjoyed on the side, after Wei Huang left, sighed slightly, and went alone
