Chapter 108: Calculation

When the fourth prince heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"I have no way out now, even if I stay in the palace, sooner or later I will always become a chess piece, in this world, as long as the person who sits in that position, he will gradually become cold and ruthless, no matter how beautiful he said before, he will regret it afterwards, he wants to exchange my happiness for his interests."

There was a hint of ridicule in the fourth prince's tone, he was so dedicated to planning for the crown prince, and he definitely didn't expect that after the prince ascended the throne, he would react like this, leaving all the kindness and promises behind.

Qin Yu also knew that he was sad because of this matter, so he didn't say anything, but just advised him to be relieved in his heart.

"If you want, if you don't dislike me, I want to take you with me."

The sudden words made him slightly stunned, and then laughed, everything depends on tonight, everything will settle tonight, and you will know what your choice is when the time comes.

He had already made a plan in his heart, and immediately took a letter and asked Qin Yu to take it out to Chu Xiaoxiang and them.

"Now until I give you an answer, you have to help me continue to do one thing, and when the dust settles, I will give you an answer."

Qin Yu went to deliver a letter to Chu Xiaoxiang, and the palace maid on the palace side at the same time had already sent a will, allowing Chu Xiaoxiang and Helian Chen to enter the palace at the same time.

After the messenger left, Chu Xiaoxiang said that he wanted to go back and change his clothes, which was actually taking this opportunity to delay time.

"The empress is our attack at this time, it is definitely not as simple as reminiscing about the past, maybe there are other conspiracies and tricks, it seems that we must be more careful, so as not to fall into the trap."

Ye Yuntian frowned beside him, knowing that this matter was not handled well, all of them couldn't leave, the most important thing was this matter, he didn't want Chu Xiaoxiang to be hurt in any way.

"Don't worry, I will help you no matter what, the empress will let the two of you enter the palace, and I will be ready to respond outside."

Chu Xiaoxiang knew that Ye Yuntian had already made all the plans, and he was also grateful to Ye Yuntian for this matter, because Ye Yuntian would make them much safer when he was outside to pick them up.

"This is for you, if there is any danger, you just need to release this signal flare, and I will immediately pick you up, even if it is to enter the palace."

Although there are many capable people under Ye Yuntian's hands, these people are all people from the rivers and lakes, no matter how powerful they are, they can't take any advantage after they are invincible with both fists and four hands against the army of the palace, so the significance of this signal flare is very good.

Helian Chen took Chu Xiaoxiang into the palace, Chu Xiaoxiang already knew the empress's plan, the two of them sat in the carriage, Helian Chen held his hand tightly, and there was a hint of firmness in his tone.

"It's unlikely that we want to leave now, the empress will definitely not let us go so easily, what I'm most afraid of is that the empress will plan and really execute the two of us, and when the news comes back to Ji Guo, even if your emperor gets the news, it will already be too late, so you will follow me at that time, and you will not be allowed to go anywhere."

Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head, such a method is not a cure for the symptoms at all, and once the empress finds out that the two of them cannot be separated, she may be even more annoyed and angry at that time.

"No! Since the empress already has an idea in her heart, we might as well plan it, otherwise we won't be able to achieve his goal, he is afraid that he will think of other tricks, and we will not be able to guard against it when the time comes, and now that we know his method, we can take the opportunity to take precautions, this is a good opportunity. ”

When Helian Chen heard him say this, he knew that everything he said was right, but he was still a little uneasy in his heart, after all, what he was most worried about was Chu Xiaoxiang's safety.

"But I don't want you to be hurt in the slightest, and if you do, you're likely to be in danger, so what if I can't make it?"

"I'm sure you can handle it, not to mention don't treat me like a child, I have the ability to save myself, do you think I look like a person who will suffer?"

Seeing that they had already arrived at the palace, the two of them had no way to continue the discussion, so Chu Xiaoxiang immediately made a decision.

"This matter is decided, I can listen to you in other things, but this is the only thing you have to listen to me, because you know that doing this is the greatest benefit for both of us, and it can also ensure our success to the greatest extent, and everything else may bring us danger."

When Helian Chen was about to say something, it was too late, and the people in the palace took them to the emperor's side, and the empress looked at Chu Xiaoxiang's eyes at this time, with a hint of calculation.

"Princess Chu is here, I think this palace is very boring, so I specially invited you to come, I want you to enjoy the flowers with me."

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the colt again, with a hint of kindness on his face.

"The horse is a man after all, it will inevitably be a little inconvenient to follow us, go and invite the four princes over, let the four princes accompany you, it just so happens that there is a chess game over there in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, if the horse is fine, you can go over and take a look."

Helian Chen obviously didn't want to leave at this time, and was more worried about Chu Xiaoxiang's safety.

"I think the sky is just right now, and the flower viewing is also a kind of elegance, and it will not feel boring, Her Majesty the Empress does not have to be polite."

The smile on the empress's face faded a little, Chu Xiaoxiang hurriedly turned his head to look at him, then walked over and grabbed his arm, and then gave him a look.

"The fourth prince must be a little boring, it's good for you to accompany him to play chess, not to mention that the prince and I haven't seen each other for a long time, if the fourth prince marries me in the future, the two of you will have to get along sooner or later, it's better to take this opportunity to cultivate a good relationship."

Helian Chen understood that Chu Xiaoxiang just asked him to leave earlier, otherwise, the empress would definitely think of other ways.

Helian Chen took a deep breath, as if he had a thousand words, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them hard.

Then he strode out, one hand clenched tightly into a fist, and the empress waited until the person left, the smile on her face finally retracted a little, and she looked at Chu Xiaoxiang with a hint of hostility in her eyes.

"Actually, the concubine may not get along with my royal brother in the future, the princess and the concubine feel so good, why do you want to allow others to insert it, even if these things are just to save me, doesn't Her Royal Highness the princess have a trace of debt in her heart?"

The sudden words made Chu Xiaoxiang slightly stunned, after all, everyone likes to beat around the bush when they talk these days, but this empress is a little different from others.

"Her Majesty has taken a fancy to my colt, that's why she admonishes me at this time, isn't it?"

"That's right, if you're willing to give me the pony, I'll promise you anything. I once met him when I was young, and I have been thinking about him since then, and I haven't married for so many years since I came back, just because I miss someone in my heart, and I can't let go of it anyway. ”

Such feelings are indeed very deep, but it is a pity that Her Majesty the Empress has a fancy to the original colt, not the current colt, and the current colt can only be hers.

"Her Majesty is really a little worried, so long has passed since the events of my youth, not to mention that the concubine has a very good relationship with me now, otherwise it is better for you to ask Fu's mother, if the concubine is willing to stay with you, I will definitely not say a word."

"You have so much confidence in him, you must know that except for the men of the Moon Kingdom, the men of other countries are more attentive, with countless wives and four concubines, not to mention that I am the emperor of a dignified country, and you are just a favored princess, according to power, you are not as good as me after all."

Chu Xiaoxiang and I found a place to sit down by myself, and I didn't be polite to him at all, the two of them were like talking heart-to-heart, and there was no slightest ups and downs with them, in fact, they were testing each other.

"Of course I'm very relieved, because I clearly know that His Majesty will never be able to get along with him, and if the colt is really a person who likes power, then Her Majesty the Empress won't really like him!"

The empress sneered, didn't say anything, but invited the group leader to play chess, Chu Xiaoxiang shook his head and said that he wouldn't, both of them were waiting for time, as long as the time came, the palace would definitely be in chaos, because whether it was people from the rivers and lakes or people from other two countries, they would not be willing to give up after getting the news, and they would definitely want to snatch the soul rejuvenation jade back, so the palace tonight will definitely be very lively.

Neither of them left the study, the empress simply ignored Chu Xiaoxiang and began to deal with her own government affairs, Chu Xiaoxiang looked around, then walked to the door and found the palace maid, and asked for a pair of scissors, and began to prune the branches and leaves of these potted plants in the pot.

"You're not scared at all, but if others were left here, wouldn't you be curious why I left you here?"

"No matter what Her Majesty the Empress is here for, I'll just wait and see what happens, whoever makes me now in the territory of the Moon Country, my identity is hindered, even if Her Majesty wants to kill me, and then blame others, I have no way."

The empress's expression instantly became a little serious, if it weren't for the fact that only he and the national teacher knew about the news at that time, he would have suspected that Chu Xiaoxiang had planted some undercover agents beside her.

"You've already guessed the result, why aren't you afraid? What if I did do what you said. ”

Chu Xiaoxiang took two steps forward, still holding scissors in his hand.

"There is a good saying, if you don't want people to know, unless you don't do it, Her Majesty the Empress will do such a thing, sooner or later one day will be found out, what do I have to be afraid of, the four countries are about to be chaotic, Her Majesty the Empress has lost an ally, how dare you be sure that you will be able to survive this crisis."

The empress smiled and didn't say anything, thinking that it was not clear whether she would doubt what the national teacher said and did, and both of them were thinking about their own thoughts.

The entire capital has already been turbulent in secret.
