The fourth princess received a letter from Mr. Zhao to her, saying that she didn't want to do what she asked her to do, King Qiong and the princess were very kind, he really didn't want to do anything to be sorry for them, and he persuaded the fourth princess, King Qiong and the princess met sincerely and loved each other, not everyone could break them up casually.

After reading the letter, the four princesses felt sad for a while, she and her cousin were childhood sweethearts, how could her father dislike her cousin and force him to marry the fourth prince, and the heart of the four princes didn't seem to be in her, and she was not in the house all day.

Finally, the fourth prince can now sit down and listen to her play the piano, but he can't talk to her like his cousin.

She thought that by helping the fourth prince to get her cousin to her side, she could have someone to talk to, but she didn't expect her cousin to be moved by the ugly princess.

A woman whose appearance can't be compared with herself, and who doesn't know etiquette, can be spoiled by Prince Qiong, and can make a man who loves her heart unwilling to do things for herself.

A fire of jealousy rose in the hearts of the four princesses.

There was a bustle in King Qiong's mansion. The little prince and the county lord were already able to run around the yard. The school at noon was dispersed, and Mr. Zhao also came to the front yard, because King Qiong asked Mr. Qiong to name the little prince and the county lord.

Mr. Zhao wrote his name on a piece of paper and handed it to King Qiong, saying that it was a blessing to the little prince and the county lord.

King Qiong read, the little county lord Shao Ji, the little prince Shao An, "good name," King Qiong praised, and Qiu Xun was also very satisfied.

Zhao Gongzi, his father was an alcoholic since he was a child, his mother was not in good health, and later lived in his aunt's house, although his aunt was also loved, but his uncle didn't like him, and his aunt fought for him to study with his cousin with his husband. He studied hard, showed off his talent in the examination, and has been teaching in a private school. Now that he has entered King Qiong's Mansion, Princess Qiong treats him sincerely, King Qiong's Mansion is warm and harmonious, and he feels content and grateful.

The fourth prince was quiet for a few months, and seeing that there was no movement in King Qiong's mansion, it seemed that Qiu Xun did not notice his and Qiu Heng's poisoning plan, so he couldn't sit still.

The fourth prince was summoned by the queen mother, and after seeing the queen mother, he asked the queen mother why his father did not go to court early in the past few days, and whether the dragon body was not safe. Empress Xie sighed and said, "I have never dared to tell the ministers that your father has always been weak and groggy these days. ”

The four princes said in their hearts that they were lascivious all day long, and it was strange to be powerful.

"The doctor prescribed medicine, but it was only for conditioning, and it was probably difficult to get rid of the root of the disease." The queen sighed, "I'm just afraid that your father's time is short, and I don't dare to tell the ministers, and Gonggong Cao has also advised me to make plans early these days, so I asked you to come and discuss." ”

"The queen mother, the second prince is in power. I have to hurry up and let my father make me the crown prince, so that King Qiong can be held hostage. "The fourth prince is anxious now, he hates this old emperor to death. indecisive, has dragged on until now and does not establish a prince.

The queen took the four princes to the emperor's sickbed, and the old emperor's illness was much more serious than the queen said, and he was sober for a while and confused for a while. In the matter of proposing the crown prince to the emperor, the emperor could only look at him blankly.

The four princes returned to the palace. I was anxious and kept moving.

The four princesses stepped forward to ask, and the four princes said that their father was seriously ill and could no longer pass on the matter of the crown prince, and King Qiong was in power, I was afraid that he had no hope of fighting for power.

When the fourth princess heard this, she was shocked, how could she be abolished after being a princess for a few days, not to mention how the second princess was worthy of being a queen.

The four princesses raised their eyebrows and thought about it, "The fourth prince, the matter is coming, moving is also death, and quiet is also death, why not strike first, since the emperor is no longer clear, then we can take him to pass the decree to establish the prince." ”

"Ah," the fourth prince didn't think about it, but if he falsely passed the holy decree, he would be killed, so he quickly got up and looked outside the door, "Aifei, do you know what the crime of falsely transmitting the holy decree is." ”

"The Four Princes," the Four Princesses smiled slightly. "It's better than sitting and waiting for someone else to kill, as long as you do it, there is hope."

It's really the most poisonous woman's heart, the fourth prince thought to himself, "Then what to do next?" ”

"The prince went to the palace to steal an emperor's pen print, I can write the emperor's pen print with just one glance, and no one can see it."

The four princes returned to the palace without delay and got the emperor's pen mark from the queen.

The four princesses glanced at it, and then wrote on the paper where the queen had stolen the emperor's seal, "Prince, the fourth prince Shao Wu." ”

The four princes carefully distinguished, and there was really no difference between it and the emperor's handwriting.

"Aifei, why is there something unclear in the ink?" The fourth prince asked.

"The emperor is seriously ill, he must be unable to hold the pen, and the pen is lightly stroked, so it must be a little unclear." A hint of cunning crossed the four princesses' beautiful faces.

"Concubine Ai, what a genius, God gives me too." The four princes laughed.

The emperor did not come out of the morning for many days, and the ministers of civil and military affairs discussed and asked. King Qiong was also suspicious.

Back at King Qiong's Mansion, Qiu Xun asked, "Hasn't the emperor been in court yet?" ”

King Joan nodded.

"Could it be that the emperor's illness is serious?" Qiu Xun asked, "What did Gonggong Cao say?" ”

"It's just that the emperor is infected with wind and cold, and he will be fine after a few days of conditioning."

Qiu Xun pondered for a moment, "It shouldn't be that simple, in case the emperor is seriously ill and the crown prince is not established, I'm afraid there will be chaos in the court in the future." ”

"I'm afraid of that too," said King Joan anxiously.

"It's also strange that we rarely walk around in the palace on weekdays and can't hear the news, but the news of the fourth prince must be well-informed, and we have to protect him."

On this day, the people of King Qiong's Mansion should do what they should do as usual, and suddenly the officers and soldiers of the court rode to King Qiong's Mansion and recruited King Qiong into the palace.

King Qiong thought to himself, it was not early, and at this time, there must be something important in the palace summons.

King Qiong didn't dare to slack off, and hurried to the palace, only to see the eldest prince, the fourth prince and the other little princes all standing outside the emperor's bedroom, with a solemn expression, and knew that the emperor must be terminally ill. The prince and the favored concubines of each palace all entered it in order, in fact, the emperor had long since woken up, it was just a customary ceremony.

Before King Qiong could enter the house to see the emperor, the imperial doctor announced that the emperor had died.

The emperor died, and the palace was in mourning.

As soon as the emperor's funeral was stopped, Gonggong Cao read out the emperor's will, "Prince, the fourth prince Shao Wu." ”

Although everyone does not know when the emperor made his will, this result is not unexpected.

The ministers of civil and military affairs went down to the court one after another, waiting for the emperor's filial piety to expire. The new emperor was then announced on the throne.

King Qiong returned to the palace to discuss with Qiu Xun, fearing that the four princes would ascend the throne, which would be detrimental to King Qiong's mansion.

Qiu Xun said, "The first emperor is alive, and you haven't been favored for a day, and you haven't come over, besides, the four princes are just fighting for the emperor's throne, and they have already ascended the throne and sat on the emperor's throne, so they have no other ideas." ”

Seeing that the emperor's filial piety period was about to expire, in the middle of the night, someone climbed into King Qiong's mansion from the wall of the back courtyard, and Mr. Jiang in the study listened to the movement. Quietly followed, and saw the black shadow going straight to King Qiong's bedroom in the front yard, he wanted to shout, but he was afraid of alarming the thief, and he was not an opponent.

He quietly picked up a stone and observed the movement at the door, but the knock seemed to be low, and King Joan opened the door without fighting.

Zhao Gongzi listened attentively.

"General Nie, why did you come in the middle of the night?" The voice of the prince.

"King Qiong is not good, just now an officer and soldier in the palace, my fellow countryman, secretly reported that he heard their general say that he would send troops to King Qiong's mansion in the early morning. I guess it's definitely not a good thing. ”

"I didn't expect him to be even more ruthless than the first emperor," Qiu Xun said fiercely, "He's going to kill them all." ”

Nie Tiancheng said, "King Qiong, I think you should go to the north to hide first, there is your land, the officers and soldiers in the capital are under the orders of the prince, and you can blackmail the prince to ascend the throne if you stand in the north." ”

"What you said is there, but the little prince is still young, and Reuters is far away, I'm afraid..."

Mr. Zhao at the door understood, and he whispered, "If King Qiong can trust me, he will hand over the little prince to me." ”

The people in the room were taken aback.

"Can you take them?" King Qiong was really not at ease when he handed over his flesh and blood to this weak scholar.

"Don't worry, Princess Qiong, I will take them to the countryside of Hangzhou, I can support them in a private school, and when you return to the capital, I will definitely send them back to you."

Qiu Xun thought to himself, the matter has come to this point, and there is no other way, so he took some silver and explained to Mr., "Take Chun Nuan away when you leave, Zi Die is the eldest princess is fine." The nurse gave him more silver. ”

Qiong Wang Qiu went to the house of the little prince and the county lord, woke up Chun Nuan and the nurse, and explained a few words. Kissed goodbye to the little prince and county lord, and climbed over the wall from the back garden.

Nie Tiancheng finally dragged Chun Nuan, Zhao Gongzi, who was carrying the little prince and county lord on his back, across the wall.

The night, the deathly silence, no one knows what happened in an instant.

In the early hours of the morning, the noise of the officers and soldiers in King Qiong's Mansion woke up Zi Die, she didn't know what was going on, and when she saw the officers and soldiers searching for people in King Qiong's Mansion everywhere, and King Qiong's Mansion was the only one left, she understood everything.

Zidie was taken to the palace, and the four princes heard Qiu Heng say that the eldest princess gave a maid to King Qiong's mansion, and King Qiong's family was gone, and she was the only one left, so she must be the eldest princess's person. The second princess won't say anything to her.

The fourth prince knew that King Qiong must have fled to the northern frontier, and it was estimated that he would not run fast with his two children, so he quickly ordered officers and soldiers to chase after him.

Besides, Chunnuan Zhao Gongzi came out, but he didn't go to Hangzhou.

As soon as I got out of the city gate, the sleepiness of Chun Nuan was gone, and my mind was much clearer.

She knew that the fourth princess was Zhao Gongzi's cousin. Zhao Gongzi is also missing, and he must go to Hangzhou to search. The little prince and the county lord are the twins of the dragon and phoenix, which is eye-catching, so she discussed with her son and went to Chun Nuan's sister and brother-in-law's house, a remote village.

Sure enough, the fourth princess heard that her cousin was also gone, and the officers and soldiers did not catch up with King Qiong and his wife all the way, there must be someone to help, this person is Zhao Wencai. She asked the Four Princes to send people to Hangzhou to look around.
