Chapter 45: Cooperation, Demanding Requirements
Xuan Mo listened to it with a bit of unpleasantness.
He didn't speak, just silently bandaged the wound on her arm, and then took off the cloak on his body and draped it on Changshu's shoulders, after doing all this, Xuan Mo said: "I have done something with the second son, so that he can sleep until dawn, and the princess can hide it from him when she goes back at this time." ”
Changshu nodded, got up and walked in the direction he came.
As she walked, she asked Xuan Mo: "By the way, you shouldn't send the news of me here back to the capital, right?" ”
The tone was careless, as if she didn't care if Xuan Mo said it or not.
But in fact, if she really didn't care, she wouldn't have asked this question at all.
Xuan Mo's voice was light: "No." ”
"The princess can rest assured, I will not be an enemy of the princess."
Changshu glanced at him: "That's good." ”
Xuan Mo escorted her on the mountain path, moving cautiously, as if she were a fragile porcelain doll, and even Xuan Mo himself didn't realize how gentle his actions seemed to be.
He didn't realize that Qingcuo, who was hiding in the shadows, was terrified.
Shouldn't his master have taken a fancy to this Princess Chenhuan?
It's going to be a disaster.
…… But don't!
Qingcuo prayed silently in his heart.
Xuan Mo didn't realize it himself, but Chang Shu knew what kind of person Xuan Mo was on weekdays, and no matter how perfect the disguise was, it couldn't change the arrogance in his bones, and such a caring appearance for a person was really not in line with his temperament.
Changshu was like a mirror in her heart, but she didn't mean to find out.
Xuan Mo stretched out his hand to remove a branch that stretched out to the middle of the road, turned his head and asked Changshu, "The princess stabbed Shu Zhao today, because he did what happened back then?" ”
Changshu sneered: "If he really has the ability to stretch out his hand to the harem, he can stay in the position of the protector of the capital of Zhennan so peacefully, and he will win the sacred heart so deeply?" ”
"It was not him who ruined the crown prince's brother, but he was the one who wanted to help him on the throne."
Changshu said lightly: "Since you are the second emperor's brother, how about we join forces?" The enemy of the enemy is a friend, as long as Concubine Rong and the third prince are pulled down, no one will be able to compete with the second emperor brother. ”
"The princes below are either from bad backgrounds or too young, and they can't compete with the second emperor brother."
Xuan Mo looked at her steadily, and his dark eyes looked extraordinarily calm.
This princess didn't even want to call out the word imperial brother a moment ago, but now in order to let him deal with the third prince, she doesn't change her face and says one imperial brother, as if their brother and sister relationship is good.
But it can bend and stretch.
Xuan Mo smiled: "The princess said that she wanted to cooperate with me, but the premise of cooperation is based on an equal relationship, the princess can't treat me as a gunman, let me charge in front, but the princess hides behind and enjoys the success, right?" ”
"The princess must have enough bargaining chips in her hands to negotiate with me."
Changshu smiled, stopped and turned to look at him: "What if I say that I can let the Xie family support the second emperor brother?" ”
Xuanmo paused.
…… It's the Xie family again.
Therefore, it is really no coincidence that the son of the Xie family came to Fengyang City to be a small county commander, and the Xie family chose to be loyal...... Is it Princess Chenhuan?
"The Xie family is the princess's person?"
Changshu didn't admit it, nor did she deny it, but said: "The Xie family is loyal to the crown prince and brother. ”
"I have a good relationship with the Xie family, the people of the Xie family owe me a favor, as long as the second emperor brother is the one worthy of assistance, I think the people of the Xie family should not refuse a Ming Jun."
Xuan Mo smiled: "What the princess means is that she still has to let the Second Highness subdue the Xie family by herself, if the Xie family is unwilling to be loyal to him, then the Second Highness himself is not worthy of assistance?" ”
"If that's all there is, I don't see the princess's sincerity."
"The princess doesn't want to pay the price, but she wants to borrow the hands of me and the second highness to pull the third prince down, I should say that the princess wants to get something for nothing or does she want to ...... Borrowing a knife to kill? ”
Xuan Mo paused, and the last words of borrowing a knife to kill were extremely clear.
Changshu said lightly: "It's not enough to borrow a knife to kill someone, you and the second emperor brother will never think about shaking hands with the third prince at this time." ”
The two sides are not in agreement, this fire has been burning there, to put it mildly, even if she pours a bucket of oil on it to make this fire more vigorous, what can she do?
Changshu didn't care about the faint ridicule in Xuan Mo's words, but said, "Second Emperor Brother, he ...... Do you really want that throne? ”
Xuanmo's pupils shrank suddenly, thinking that she had discovered something.
The next moment, I heard Changshu say casually: "Since the queen mother went, the harem has been ownerless, and the biological mother of the second emperor brother is not high, what if I say that I can let him be recorded in the name of the queen mother, so that he can occupy the identity of a concubine?" ”
"The crown prince and brother are not here, if he is both a concubine and a chief, who else is more justifiable than him?"
Xuan Mo felt that he was frightened by her for a moment, and when he heard Changshu say this, he felt that he was thinking too much.
How can a princess be so perceptive.
Sure enough, he was thinking too much.
Xuan Mo raised his eyebrows: "But the princess just moved her mouth from beginning to end, even if something happens, the princess can push four, five or six, and then everything has nothing to do with the princess." ”
"And what do you want?" Changshu asked him.
"I want the power left by the Wen family, and I want the nineteen border cities to be completely in my hands."
Xuan Mo made no secret of his ambitions: "When the Guo family had an accident, I guessed that it might be the remnants of the Wen family, after all, it is true that the Guo family betrayed the Wen family, and it is also true that the Guo family has been on the rise after the fall of the Wen family. ”
"Now that the princess is here, those forces must have fallen into the hands of the princess, the queen is the daughter of the Wen family, except for the princess and the people of the Wen family, no one can control these forces."
Changshu's face turned cold when she looked at it.
She looked at Xuan Mo and said expressionlessly: "You are not ambitious. ”
Xuan Mo smiled, and his smile looked very gentle: "Not only that, I also want the dark part in the princess's hand." ”
Changshu's face changed slightly.
"I know that the princess and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a shadow guard in their hands, which is the sword in the princess's hand, but the sword has not been completed and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already had an accident, counting the time, now this sword should have been sharpened enough."
Changshu's eyes narrowed slightly: "How did you know about the existence of the shadows?" ”
Xuan Mo smiled: "This question is not important. ”
"If the princess can do this, I will cooperate with the princess to kill the third prince and Concubine Rong, and avenge the prince and the queen, how about it?"
Changshu sneered: "Such a harsh request, almost all the hole cards in my hand have been removed, do you think I will agree?" ”
