A month later, Xuanyuan Rui took Lu Xin to the capital of Yu Liguo, and secretly settled down in a mansion, in this month, Lu Xin felt the happiest, she felt that everything was slowly getting better, she found a man she loved, and also loved herself, the two lived lovingly, these are the lives she once wanted and longed for, simple, happy, happy,

When Lu Xin was hanging out in the capital every day eating, drinking, and having fun, Xuanyuan Rui had already secretly connected with several ministers in the court who strongly opposed Empress Ling, and he secretly summoned important ministers in private to win over the forces of various factions in the court, preparing to deal a fatal blow to Empress Ling.

But at this time, the most difficult problem appeared, that is, General Ling Xiao, who held the military power of Yu Liguo, this person and Empress Ling were aunts and nephews, not only had a blood relationship with Empress Ling, but also a cronie cultivated by Empress Ling herself, such a special relationship, it seemed impossible to persuade General Ling to turn against him.

Empress Ling once pushed Ling's nephew as a general in front of the current emperor, and even handed over the military power to her nephew, so that one day when the prince returns, she can have a chip in hand, and the other party will not dare to act rashly against her.

At night, Lu Xin lay in Xuanyuan Rui's arms and talked endlessly about the new and interesting things she saw in the market during the day, but she was keenly aware that Xuanyuan Rui seemed to be preoccupied.

Lu Xin asked softly, "What's the matter, are you listening to others, is something happening?"

Xuanyuan Rui smiled and comforted her and said, "I'm listening, I'm listening, I'm fine, rest early, you must be tired of playing today,"

Lu Xin said: "I'm not tired, but I feel that you are tired, I know, I don't have the ability to help you anything, but, if you have any troubles, I hope you don't carry it alone, and say it for me to hear, okay?"

Xuanyuan Rui hugged Lu Xin's petite body and said to her: "I just want you to stay by my side happily every day, it's enough for me to be bored alone, how can I be willing to let my most beloved woman worry about me, be obedient, rest early, otherwise, I will have to .........,"

Xuanyuan Rui said as he reached out to touch Lu Xin's lower abdomen, which was so sour that Lu Xin hid while laughing, and the two fell asleep quietly after a while of hip-hop and fighting.

Lu Xin listened to Xuanyuan Rui say doting words to herself, she felt happy in her heart, but she was also worried about him, the Xuanyuan Rui she knew had always been a confident and invincible man, if it wasn't for the extremely difficult things, he wouldn't have behaved so preoccupied, in order not to add to his troubles, Lu Xin obediently listened to Xuanyuan Rui's words, and no longer asked him anything,

Early the next morning, Lu Xin privately called Chen Ping into the room and asked him about all the recent things about Xuanyuan Rui and the problems he encountered.

At first, Chen Ping didn't dare to reveal anything, but only vaguely responded to Lu Xin's questioning, and was anxious by Lu Xin's questioning, so he said to Lu Xin: "Miss Xin'er, this is a matter in the court, if you don't get the acquiescence of Your Highness, your subordinates will never dare to speak lightly,"

Lu Xin listened to Chen Ping's words of evasion, and immediately patted the case and said: "Chen Ping, you give me less of this set, today I must know from your mouth what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worried about, say it quickly,"

As soon as Chen Ping heard Lu Xin's strong tone, he knew that Lu Xin was not easy to dismiss, so he said with a hippie smile: "Wouldn't it be better if Miss Xin'er went to ask His Highness in person, why embarrass me as a subordinate, you two should just find a topic to chat, hehehe,"

Lu Xin looked at Chen Ping, learned from him and smiled: "Hehehe,"

Then he changed his face and said, "Aren't you talking nonsense, if he is willing to tell me, I won't ask you today,"

When Chen Ping heard this, he asked tentatively: "Then Miss Xin'er has already asked His Royal Highness the Prince,"

Lu Xin nodded in disbelief and said, "Well, he didn't want me to worry, so he didn't say anything to me,"

Chen Ping immediately pretended to be very embarrassed and said: "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince deliberately does not let Miss Xin'er know, if his subordinates say it, then His Highness will not want the lives of his subordinates,"

Lu Xin glared at Chen Ping and said, "If you don't say it, I have a way to make him kill you,"

When Chen Ping heard this, he immediately said pitifully: "Ah........., isn't it,.........," and thought: "It's all the masters who are not easy to mess with,"

Lu Xin said proudly: "I don't believe you try,"

Chen Ping had no choice, so he could only obediently tell the whole thing, and he said: "Actually, His Highness has been worrying about military power for the past two days,"

When Lu Xin heard this, something really happened, of course she knew that the lifeblood and power of a country are in the hands of people who have real military power, if that person can't surrender to you, he must be subservient to others.

Lu Xin asked eagerly, "Who is the person who holds the power of the army?"

Chen Ping said: "The one who holds the military power is General Ling Xiao, but he is the nephew of Empress Ling, how can you say that he is willing to obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not thought of a countermeasure to take it down for a while,"

After listening to it, Lu Xin finally understood the difficulty of this matter, just because General Ling and Empress Ling have this blood relationship is the most important thing that is difficult to overcome General Ling, Lu Xin has no countermeasures for a while, but she knows that this is an important step to hinder Xuanyuan Rui from ascending the throne, and it is also the most difficult step, it is a step that he must take, and it is also a step that must not be wrong at all.

Lu Xin said to Chen Ping: "Although this is the case, as long as it is a person, there will definitely be weaknesses, not to mention a general who holds a heavy army and is in a high position, you should let people watch all the actions of the General's Mansion at this time, and gossip more about the General's Mansion from the subordinates and come back to say that I listen, you must pay attention to the accuracy of the news, and I will see if I can think of some coping strategies,"

Chen Ping listened to what Lu Xin said, and he was very happy, he had admired Lu Xin's wisdom and adaptability very much along the way to the establishment of the country, he felt that this Miss Xin'er would definitely be able to help His Royal Highness the Prince, he thought so in his heart, and then said to Lu Xin: "Okay, Miss Xin'er, then the subordinates will go and inquire,"

Lu Xin said to Chen Ping again: "Chen Ping, remember not to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first,"

Chen Ping nodded solemnly, thinking, "I won't be so stupid to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, isn't this tantamount to throwing myself into the net,"

Three days later, General Ling Xiao entered the palace to meet Empress Ling again, and he thought: "My aunt is in such a hurry to summon me, it must be to discuss the seizure of power,"

When they meet privately between their aunts and nephews, they never pay attention to those red tapes, just like ordinary elders and juniors get along.

Ling Xiao said to Queen Ling, "I don't know what important things my aunt has to summon my nephew,"

Empress Ling has been in a very happy mood since she learned the news that the crown prince has died, she thought that now the old emperor is a dying person, and she is already in power in the court, although the civil and military officials are dissatisfied with her control of the government, but they dare not speak out, looking helpless,

This time, she summoned Ling Xiao into the palace, just to discuss how to control those princes and generals, so that they can surrender to her, so that she can be in charge of the dynasty openly, such a day is what she has been longing for for a long time, as long as she uses the means again, it will soon be realized,

Empress Ling said: "Xiao'er, if the overall situation is decided today, there is no one more suitable to sit on this throne than my aunt, you are one of the people my aunt relies on the most, and the Ling family will depend on you in the future, do you understand?"

Ling Xiao knelt down and said: "My nephew and Aunt Xie have been carefully cultivated, and my nephew will live up to Guo's trust, and I am willing to smear my aunt's liver and brain,"

Empress Ling said with a smile: "Silly child, how can my aunt be willing to let you go to the ground for your aunt's liver and brain, the words are serious, the words are serious, now that the prince is no longer there, Yu Liguo is like a plate of loose sand, the civil and military officials will definitely recommend other princes to me to support the throne, as long as you find a way to block their mouths and agree to the palace in the court, then this world will soon be the world of our Ling family,"

Ling Xiao couldn't help but be shocked in his heart when he heard Queen Ling's thoughts, he thought: "Although, my aunt has monopolized power at this time, but as we all know, this is only temporary, and sooner or later it will have to be returned to the Xuanyuan clan.

Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with a trace of dissatisfaction, and he thought: "It must be the bad idea that the minister gave to my aunt, I think I Ling Xiao has been loyal and patriotic all my life, and my ambition in this life is to fight on the bloody battlefield, defend my homeland, and leave a name in history, but my aunt's approach at this time is to go against loyalty and goodness, and go against the sky, how can a woman be called the emperor, but my aunt is my aunt after all,"

Ling Xiao wanted to say something, but heard Queen Ling say: "The palace has already invited the families of hundreds of officials, and they will go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers and watch the play the day after tomorrow, and they will all be placed under house arrest in the palace at that time.

When Ling Xiao heard this, he was shocked in his heart, and immediately said: "It turns out that my aunt has already made a plan, but I am afraid that it will backfire if I treat hundreds of officials like this, whether my aunt still has to think about it in the long run, there will definitely be a perfect strategy,"

Empress Ling said: "This palace has no patience to wait any longer, now the court still has your uncle helping, and the greatest military power is in your hands, so the time and place are favorable, the throne is already within reach for this palace, who else dares to say that this palace is not,"

Ling Xiao said worriedly: "Auntie, although you can control the hundred officials, but the world is based on the people as the world, how can you let the people of Dawn obey it,"
