Zhao Jinhuai understood too much what kind of suspicious his father was, but he couldn't bear to let the victims die tragically, so he recommended himself in the court and proposed to go to Cangzhou for disaster relief.

But because of his move, the emperor became suspicious of him, thinking that he was not willing to be a virtuous king, but was ready to take action against the queen's faction.

"Your Highness doesn't need to estimate, the more you are like this, the more the emperor and queen will not doubt you, after all, a soft-hearted prince and a ruthless and ambitious prince are more important, I believe the queen's faction is clear."

Jiang Yuanliu frowned, and then continued: "Disaster relief is hard work, but at the same time, it is also a good opportunity to accumulate prestige, the eldest prince is mediocre and stubborn, and he is not suitable for ascending to the throne......"

Halfway through speaking, Jiang Yuanliu stopped, it was taboo to talk shallow and deep, she just had to let the second prince see her ability, as for the matter of plotting for the throne, even if she said that she was out of the blue, it was impossible to immediately break into the second prince's power.

"Hahaha."

Zhao Jinhuai suddenly laughed, then squinted at Gu Jinshu and said: "You are a sweetheart, but you are really a woman who does not let you shave your eyebrows, and you and I have completely guessed that there is nothing left." ”

Jiang Yuanliu was slightly stunned, and then realized that he had been deceived, pursed his red lips, and hammered Gu Jinshu's chest in annoyance, "It turns out that you deliberately teased me." ”

Time goes back to the day before.

Since Jiang Yuanliu knew that Jiang Fengmao was highly poisoned, and this poison was still under the emperor that Jiang Fengmao served loyally, Jiang Yuanliu completely hated Zhao Duqi.

At the same time, she felt that she should no longer be like an ostrich, sticking her head in the sand and thinking that everything was all right.

After seeing Jiang Fengmao's aging face and gray sideburns, Jiang Yuanliu really realized that the big tree that sheltered him was already drooping and old, and she needed to grow quickly to shelter her father from the wind and rain.

Jiang Yuanliu knew very well that once Jiang Fengmao arrived, there would be no good end for them.

What she needs to do now is to grow rapidly and grow into a towering tree when Jiang Fengmao can still hold up a big umbrella to protect them, so that Zhao Duqi does not dare to do anything to them.

After thinking about it for several days, Jiang Yuanliu felt that he should not deliberately avoid the war between the princes for the prince, there were many people in the capital who remained neutral, but most of them were some inconsequential petty officials, people who were really powerful, and they had no chance to remain alone in this war.

Jiang Yuanliu felt that if he wanted to completely embrace Jiang Fengmao and the Protector Mansion, he had to support an emperor, and the Dragon's Gong could ensure that the Protector Mansion would be able to stand for decades.

After analyzing for several days, Jiang Yuanliu tested many princes, either they were too young or too ambitious, but they had a bit of ability and status in their mother's family, and they all coveted it, but they didn't have real skills to support it.

Jiang Yuanliu thought about it for a long time, and felt that Zhao Duqi was really a failure, he didn't even have a son who could handle it, and he didn't know who Zhao Duqi wanted to choose as the heir in the Qingqi Kingdom after a hundred years.

There was no way, Jiang Yuanliu could only pull out the tall one and choose Zhao Jinhuai.

Tingqingyuan's ability to collect news has basically taken shape, through the information collected by Tingqingyuan, Jiang Yuanliu became more and more frightened, she felt that Zhao Jinhuai simply took the actor's script, grew up in the palace cautiously, and then entered the court because of his talent.

In addition to the concubine of the middle palace, he became the only prince who entered the court after adulthood, and he also has a reputation for being smart and virtuous.

can be alone, without the protection of the mother's family, in the palm of the queen's mother and son, and has won a good reputation, which shows that this second prince is not an ordinary person.

Jiang Yuanliu intuitively thought that the second prince was raising obscurity in Taoguang, and sure enough, she expected it.

Gu Jinshu patted the top of Jiang Yuanliu's hair, and then said seriously: "I'm not trying to tease you, but to tell you more clearly, there are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, and in this capital, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, if you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff and break your bones, so you must be cautious." ”

He really didn't want Jiang Yuanliu to be like him and support the second prince to ascend to the throne.

Gu Jinshu only hopes that Jiang Yuanliu can do what he wants for the rest of his life, do what he wants, and live happily every day, instead of repeatedly pondering people's hearts in deceit.

The most terrible thing in this world is the human heart, and if you think through the human heart, you will find happiness.

But Jiang Yuanliu has her own persistence, she wants to rely on her own ability to shelter her relatives and the people she wants to protect, so she is willing to give up some things for this, as long as she abides by the bottom line, what's wrong with being ruthless to the enemy!

"Second Highness, since you have discussed it with Jinshu, then I won't say much, and now I want to remind you of something very important." Jiang Yuanliu's deep eyes gradually sank.

The second prince respected Jiang Yuanliu as a life-saving benefactor, and after knowing Jiang Yuanliu's ability, he also admired it very much, so he asked seriously: "What's the matter?" I'll be sure to listen carefully. ”

"After the catastrophe, there will be a pandemic, and there has already been an epidemic in Cangzhou." Jiang Yuanliu's expression was very solemn.

Zhao Jinhuai weighed for a moment and stood up from the stone bench, his face full of disbelief, "You said that there was an epidemic in Cangzhou?" Why didn't I know about this? ”

There were a lot of people he sent to Cangzhou, but he knew that there were people in Cangzhou who were inciting the victims to stir up chaos and chaos, and he never knew that there was an epidemic in Cangzhou.

"That's right, this is also what I analyzed from the clues, I heard that a fire broke out in a temple in Cangzhou, and the monks who escaped were all burned by the fire and coughed."

After Jiang Yuanliu heard such rumors, he immediately went to Huguo Temple to find the two monks who had escaped, and after diagnosis, he learned that the two monks had been infected with the plague.

"This matter needs to be reported to my father as soon as possible." Zhao Jin frowned, if there is an epidemic in Cangzhou, then it is necessary to dispatch doctors to treat it as soon as possible to prevent the spread of the epidemic.

But before Zhao Jinhuai could draft the recital, he saw his subordinates hurriedly walking to him to set up a new year, and then lowered his voice and said a shocking news in his ear.

"Cangzhou has rebelled."

After Zhao Jinhuai heard the news of the rebellion, he did not have a very surprised expression on his face, because the rebellion was expected by him.

"Is it really the other way around?" Gu Jinshu was worried.

Zhao Jin said distressedly: "My subordinates have reported to me that there are people from the White Lotus Sect who are active in Cangzhou, and you also know that the White Lotus Sect is likely to have a relationship with the previous dynasty, how could you let go of such a good opportunity." ”

"Cangzhou is only separated by a river from the back cover of the King of Qi, once the rebel army is formed and attacks the back cover of the King of Qi, then the Mobei barbarians who are waiting for the opportunity will inevitably organize iron cavalry to attack the Qingqi Kingdom!" Gu Jinshu made a quick analysis.

Jiang Yuanliu took out a topographic map from her arms, which she revised after seeing the map in Jiang Fengmao's study, which was very detailed.

"You look here, as long as you walk a hundred miles north of this river, you can attack Tianshun Mansion, once Tianshun Mansion is occupied by rebels, King Qi will be attacked by the enemy."

Seeing the topographic map that Jiang Yuanliu took out, Zhao Jinhuai was suddenly shocked, if it weren't for the rebels' affairs in his heart, he would definitely think about the topographic map.

Even so, Zhao Jinhuai still couldn't put it down, leaned down and looked at the topographic map with good eyes, "You got this topographic map from you?" ”

This topographic map not only carefully marks all the state capitals of Qingqi Kingdom, but also draws the major mountain ranges very vividly, which is intuitive, and is thousands of times more than all the topographic maps today.

If the generals of the Qingqi Kingdom could have a topographic map like this, why would there be a situation where the generals who led the troops to fight would take the wrong path on the march.

Don't think it's impossible to go the wrong way! It's too possible! Qingqi Country has a vast territory, and even elite soldiers and strong generals who can fight well are not familiar with any terrain, and sometimes they don't have time to find a local guide at all, and they will get lost in the mountains.

"Ahem, I drew it myself." Jiang Yuanliu said lightly, she was a little apprehensive, so Gu Jinshu told her that the second prince could be trusted and was the best candidate, but she didn't know if the talent she showed would lead to death.

However, Jiang Yuanliu felt that he still had a natural convenience, that is, the body of his daughter, no matter how outstanding his ability was, he would not become the object of Zhao Jin's jealousy.

Therefore, Jiang Yuanliu hesitated again and again before taking out this topographic map, which not only increased his bargaining chips in Zhao Jinhuai, but also became the ability to protect himself.

"I didn't expect Yuanliu to have such a talent." Zhao Jinhuai's eyes are full of fine light, he has seen a lot of young ladies who are good at painting, and that noble girl is not good at painting!

But those women spend mountains and rivers, which are beautiful and beautiful, but they are useless.

And the topographic map in front of him is a rare treasure, and the person who draws the topographic map is even more precious!

"Your Highness, the matter of the rebels is imminent!" Gu Jinshu saw the interest in Zhao Jinhuai's eyes, and he immediately reminded him dissatisfiedly, Jiang Yuanliu is very good, but Jiang Yuanliu is his! No one wants to snatch it.

Zhao Jinhuai is not a greedy and lustful person, he just admires Jiang Yuanliu's ability, and his courage is different from other women, of course he is interested, he was very interested when he saw Jiang Yuanliu.

It's just that the wife of a friend can't be bullied, and he cares more about grand things than women.

"What Jinshu said is, let's study the rebel army, there must be something strange in this, you and Yuan Liu are very right in their analysis, the purpose of the person who set off the rebellion is likely to be the King of Qi, who wants to fight Mobei back and forth, and then let Qingqi Kingdom fall into war!"

This is not a situation that anyone wants to see, it has not been many years since the Qingqi Kingdom stabilized, and it is the people who are suffering from the chaos.
