"This should have been a matter between me and Zhao Ling, and I shouldn't bother my uncle with this kind of thing!" Jiang Xiaoyu raised his eyes and looked at Bai Siyuan and said, "How did my uncle have his body these days?" ”

"I'm fine, don't worry about me, let alone having your master by my side!" Bai Siyuan smiled slightly and said kindly.

"By the way, does my uncle know about the eldest grandson's entry into Beijing?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.

"Hmm!" The smile on Bai Siyuan's face was retracted, "I already knew it from the time he left to come to the capital!" ”

"I'm worried about the situation!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Judging from the current situation, the Queen Mother has found someone to deal with me several times, and even sent out a secret door, obviously not taking His Majesty's warning in his eyes, maybe His Majesty has backed down, this is the condition for the Queen Mother to persuade the eldest grandson!" If the eldest grandson is willing to back down, will Your Majesty sacrifice us in exchange? What he wants is a majestic strategy, if the eldest grandson's family is no longer an obstacle to him, then why should he dig up the things of ten years ago and make his imperial career stained? ”

"Xiaoyu, what do you think the emperor is most taboo about the eldest grandson's family?" Bai Siyuan asked.

"The main strength of the Changsun family is still in the army, and the Great Zhou has almost ordinary military power in the hands of the people of the Changsun family, even if His Majesty now has the two trump cards of killing the god and the Xiao cavalry battalion, but if you really want to clean up the Changsun family by strong means, it will still cause a lot of internal friction, and it will give Chen Guo a chance!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "So the eldest grandson family still has the strength to influence His Majesty's decision!" ”

"Our majesty Da Zhou is indeed an overlord with a lot of ambitions, what he wants is not only the Changtai of Da Zhou, he wants to expand his territory and become a generation of heroes!" Bai Siyuan said slowly, "The north and the south have almost been leveled by him, and now only Chen Guo can compete with the Great Zhou, and it has always been his long-cherished wish to send troops to Chen Guo, but this plan has been shelved for many years because of Changsun Hu's opposition, and the reason for Changsun Hu's opposition is that the grassland is uneasy, and the north is not peaceful, and now these two reasons are no longer there, Your Majesty's plan for the westward expedition will inevitably be promoted!" ”

After a pause, Bai Siyuan continued: "Over the years, the people of the eldest grandson family have guarded the frontier, and they have long used their private power to have a deep conclusion with Chen Guo, if Your Majesty wants to go west, this will inevitably cut off the wealth of the eldest grandson family and will also involve a lot of follow-up problems, so the eldest grandson Hu is bound to continue to oppose it!" ”

"If the eldest grandson Hu wants to take a step back, as early as when he perceives His Majesty's intentions, he will choose to back down, and he doesn't need to coerce him with the things of His Majesty more than ten years ago, he doesn't dare, when the prestige of the Bai family was in full swing, and the thunderbolt of the Bai family's army was still destroyed in an instant, how could he dare to bet, after there was no little bargaining chip, His Majesty was grateful for his support back then? You don't have to worry that Eldest Sun Hu will choose to back down, because neither of him nor His Majesty will trust anyone! ”

"Then what is the purpose of the eldest grandson Hu entering Beijing?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.

"Naturally, it is to personally solve the matter of more than ten years ago, in all fairness, the eldest grandson Hu is cautious and cautious, and the eldest grandson family is also a constraint, and he has not committed any major crime of stealing the family and exterminating the clan in that incident eleven years ago, that is his heart, and he cannot let His Majesty hold this handle!" Bai Siyuan said lightly, "It's really sad to say, whether the Bai family and the prince have been wronged in vain, or whether they want to wash away this grievance, it is just a means for them to achieve their goals, they know the truth in their hearts, but not everyone has the interest in knowing the truth of the year, whether it is to make meritorious contributions or to defend the country, it is just a chess piece!" ”

"If this is a game between His Majesty and the eldest grandson, then what about the Queen Mother? What role does the Queen Mother play in this? Jiang Xiaoyu asked.

"In the early years, the Queen Mother was a ruthless Iron Lady, but now she is old and has become greedy, once people are greedy, they may not get anything!" Bai Siyuan said coldly, "When she turned a blind eye to her eldest grandson's choice and maintained her mother's family, some cause and effect had already been buried, the matter between the eldest grandson's family and His Majesty, with the decline of the Queen Mother's influence, she couldn't play any real role, and she herself realized this, so she couldn't wait to let the secret door reappear in the rivers and lakes, in order to prove that she still has the ability to influence the court situation, what causes and what effects, she wants to have family fun now, it's too late!" ”

After Bai Siyuan finished speaking, he glanced at Jiang Xiaoyu with lowered eyes, and said: "But since the Queen Mother is anxious to calm down the contradiction between the eldest grandson's family and His Majesty, then you must be careful now, even after marrying Zhao Ling, you must not take it lightly, Zhao Ling is her grandson, but she may not see you as her granddaughter-in-law!" In addition to being careful of the Queen Mother's secret door, there is another point, you have to be careful of one person, one woman! ”

"Could it be the Mr. Beiming that Zhao Ling mentioned?"

"This woman has been in the shadows and has not made a move, but this person is careful and vicious, according to the information I have gotten, her activities have begun to be frequent, you have to pay attention to fortification, she has a lot of eyeliner, and when she visits other mansions in the future, she also needs to be cautious, and before the matter of the eldest grandson's family is resolved, you must not be careless!"

"Yes!" Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "I know!" ”

"Furthermore, you have to learn to control your emotions, the eldest grandson Hu is old and calculating, and now he lives in seclusion, but if possible, try not to have direct contact with him. This is a game between the eldest grandson Hu and His Majesty, we just have to protect ourselves now, can you remember? Bai Siyuan instructed.

"Remember!" Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and said, she remembered a past incident, and asked again, "Has my uncle been in contact with Princess Xiuwen?" What is the condition of her husband? ”

"I haven't told her about coming to the capital, I'm afraid I don't know about it, her identity is very important and can't be exposed!" Bai Siyuan said, "She and her husband have not seen each other for ten years, but they have been together for a few months, but for the justice and fairness in their hearts, they chose to resolutely leave the fiefdom and enter Beijing. ”

The sun was very big, and the bright sun made people dizzy, dry mouth, and dusty, and saw a flag floating in front of them, with the word "wine" written on it.

"Second lady, there is a wine shop in front, you can take a break!" The official said as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Jiang Yiran nodded, although Jiang Yiran was assigned to the frontier, but because the eldest grandson Chi had greeted her, the officials were extremely respectful to her along the way.

The four of them came to the liquor store, and the store immediately began to shop.

The restaurant was not large, but there were only three or four tables, separated by a bamboo curtain.

Jiang Yiran picked up the coarse porcelain bowl and took a sip of herbal tea, but at this time, she suddenly remembered a melodious piano sound, and she was shocked in her heart, why is there such pleasant and elegant music in this wilderness?

Curious, she lifted the bamboo curtain slightly, glanced inside, and took a breath of cool air. There is a woman in white sitting inside, the woman's face is gorgeous, her skin is snow-white without any flaws, and her posture is graceful, that is, she has the charm of a girl, and she has the charm of a mature woman, so that people can't see her age at all.

After the sound of the piano, the woman in white put her fingers like green onions on the strings, and when the sound of the piano stopped completely, she raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Yiran, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked a touch, as if admiring and mocking, and as if revealing a kind meaning.

"Who are you? Your piano sound has such attainments, I am rare in my life, can the girl reveal her name? Jiang Yiran asked.

"I've heard you play the piano too, and you're talented!" The woman in white smiled faintly, "I still have some appreciation for you, so I came here to save you!" ”

"Help me?" Jiang Yiran frowned slightly, turned her head and glanced at the few officials who escorted her, she didn't know when they had all fallen in a pool of blood, and there were several white-clothed women standing around, suddenly like fairies, she couldn't imagine that this bloody thing would be done by them, and what she couldn't imagine was when they appeared behind her.

Jiang Yiran swallowed nervously and asked, "Who are you?" Why save me? ”

"Have you ever heard of Yan Shuzhai? I still think of your ruthlessness, so I want to train you well! The woman in white said lightly, "Of course, you can also choose to refuse, then you will spend your youth in the Huangbarian land of southern Xinjiang, and you will never have the opportunity to return to the capital, and there will be no chance to return to the side of the eldest grandson!" ”

"How are you going to train me? What do you want me to do? Who are you? Jiang Yiran hurriedly asked.

"They all call Mr. Beiming!"

"It's you!" Jiang Yiran's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly knelt down, "It turns out that the person the eldest princess asked me to contact more is you!" I heard the eldest princess talk about you, but before I could get in touch with you more, the next thing happened! ”

She swallowed her spit and said: "I am willing to follow Mr. Beiming, no matter what Mr. asks me to do, I am willing, as long as I can return to the capital, kill Jiang Xiaoyu, and return to the general's side!" ”

The woman in white glanced at her and said lightly: "I will arrange someone to go to Southern Xinjiang instead of you, and you will return to the capital with a new identity, and then start a new life!" You have to believe that women in this world can also change a lot of things, and they can also get what they want through their own efforts, as long as you are obedient and smart, you will get what you want! ”

"I'll listen to you for everything!" Jiang Yiran looked at the woman in white with admiration as if grasping the last straw, "I'm willing to do anything!" ”
