"What's going on?"

Huang Zhengyuan walked out of the door of the private room, followed the companion to a secluded place, and asked in a deep voice.

The companion looked left and right, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said, "My lord, the car you ordered the villain to keep an eye on is here, and it has just entered the alley!" ”

Huang Zhengyuan was shocked: "Is this true? ”

Bandang nodded and said, "It's true! ”

"Is there anyone in the car?"

Huang Zhengyuan asked cautiously.

The companion affirmed: "There are guards dressed as family members to escort the left and right, and there should be no shortage of masters among them, and nine times out of ten it is a big fish out of the hole!" ”

"Great!"

Huang Zhengyuan smashed his fist on the palm of his hand, and said excitedly: "This eunuch is also calm enough, and it took me three months to catch the fox's tail after staring at him, hum, Hu Miao, see how you can escape from my palm this time!" ”

Bandang said with a smile: "My lord, this time you grabbed Hu Miao's handle, it is equivalent to controlling the celebrant eunuch, in the future, the prince will have this strong help, why worry about the big thing?" ”

Huang Zhengyuan glared at Bandang when he heard this, his cold gaze seemed to be looking at a dead man, Bandang was shocked, cold sweat instantly soaked his back, and he quickly closed his mouth and lowered his head.

Huang Zhengyuan said coldly: "This matter is top secret, if you don't want to die, keep your mouth shut!" ”

Bandang nodded, not daring to say another half a word.

"And!"

Huang Zhengyuan continued: "There are many variables in this matter, and there is no light, the prince knows what to say, right?" ”

The companion nodded hurriedly and said, "The little one knows, the little one won't mention half a word to the prince!" ”

Huang Zhengyuan nodded with satisfaction: "It's not that I want to hide it from the prince, but I don't want the prince to get involved in these dirty things, do you understand?" ”

"The little ones understand, Lord Huang is working hard, how can the little ones not understand?"

The companion was already pale with fright, how could he say half a word?

"It's good to understand!"

Huang Zhengyuan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Take me to see it now, if I don't grasp this matter, I will always be unstable in my heart." ”

"Go now?"

Companion was stunned for a moment, pointed to the private room not far away, and said, "The prince is still inside, do you want to wait for the banquet to disperse?" ”

Huang Zhengyuan shook his head: "No need, I feel uncomfortable eating at this banquet, it's okay to go, let's go now!" ”

"Yes, yes, the small ones will bring the adults over!"

Companion agreed, and hurriedly took out a hat and put it on Huang Zhengyuan, and the two quietly left Wentian Pavilion.

A few streets away in an alley, a lonely carriage slowly stopped at the door of a house, and several attendants looked left and right vigilantly until they confirmed that no one was following nearby, then they exchanged glances and knocked on the door of the carriage.

What they didn't know, however, was that on a roof hundreds of meters away, Huang Zhengyuan was holding a bamboo pipe-like object and looking hard into the alley.

"My lord, what are you, it looks so fresh."

Bandang asked Huang Zhengyuan curiously.

Huang Zhengyuan glanced at him and said: "This thing is called a telescope, and it is also something that Xu Rui made up. ”

"Telescopes? Is it possible to see the other side through this object? ”

It's unbelievable.

Huang Zhengyuan nodded: "It's clear!" Xu Rui is indeed good at making a work, this thing is comparable to an artifact, the other party's identity is special, and he will definitely bring a master when he goes out, if he is close, he will inevitably be discovered, but it is better to use this thing to be practical. ”

"Your Excellency is really talented, you have thought of all the details!"

The companion hurriedly stretched out his thumb and slapped his ass.

Huang Zhengyuan waved his hand and said, "Shut up, the people inside are coming out!" ”

The companion closed his mouth in amusement, not daring to say more.

Huang Zhengyuan looked intently with a telescope, only to see a person come out of the carriage under the escort of a group of masters, and by the light of the torch, he could clearly see the person's face.

But the moment he saw the person clearly, Huang Zhengyuan's body suddenly stiffened, his face changed greatly, he took off the binoculars, and exclaimed: "It's not Hu Miao, it's him?" How is this possible! ”

Bandang looked at Huang Zhengyuan in amazement, not knowing why he suddenly lost his temper.

In fact, it's no wonder that Huang Zhengyuan is not the person who appeared in the telescope, but the ancestor of the group of eunuchs, Wang Shun!

On the other side, the banquet dispersed in a hurry, Xu Rui and King Su did not take the car, but left a group of guards behind, shoulder to shoulder, and slowly walked forward.

"The fourth brother is too anxious, don't blame him, this way is actually the most difficult for him, the eldest brother is forcing him, the seventh brother is forcing him, the father gave him the criminal department, in fact, he is also forcing him, and now even those under him are starting to force him, he is really bitter."

King Su looked at the clear night sky and suddenly sighed.

Xu Rui nodded: "It's also the desire that makes people have an opportunity to take advantage of it, but speaking of which, his situation is indeed the worst, whether he is high or low, and I don't know what the saint thinks about him."

Now that he has taken the step of seizing the heir, his subordinates are greedy for the dragon's work, so they naturally tie their heads to the waistband of their trousers and follow him, hoping that he will be able to ascend the throne tomorrow.

Alas, to put it bluntly, he can't see through it himself. ”

King Su shook his head: "Actually, if you really talk about it, don't you think the fourth brother is the most capable?"

The eldest brother was born as a prince, with the support of the entire Xungui group, and the name of the prince alone can make countless wise men who are eager to show their talents come to defect, and they are naturally strong.

The seventh brother is stained with the light of his mother's family, not only does his father favor the concubine, so that he gets a lot of doting out of thin air, but the civil official group also points to him to bring down other forces and respect me alone.

Only the fourth brother and concubine died early, and his status was low, he did not have any power behind him, and the few cronies who could handle it were also cultivated by himself, it was really not easy for him. ”

Xu Rui nodded: "To put it this way, he is indeed the hardest working among the princes." ”

King Su smiled: "So, the only ones who can really help him are you and me, and the only ones he can count on are you and me......"

Saying that, King Su patted Xu Rui and said: "Take care of it, you look at the two today, He Linkou has a honey-bellied sword, his heart is deep, Qu Shancun is unscrupulous in order to climb up, shameless, if you rely on them, the fourth brother will have to capsize sooner or later." ”

Xu Rui was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, your skill of observing people has improved a lot, but although you can see it accurately, your analysis is not right, and there is still a gap compared to your fourth brother." ”

"Huh?"

King Su looked at Xu Rui in surprise: "What's wrong?" ”

Xu Rui said with a smile: "He Lin has a honey-bellied sword, he has a deep heart, this kind of person knows how to forbear, he is extremely strict, and he is also good at camouflage, it is not easy to attract attention when he is sent to the forbidden army, but it can be of great use at critical moments."

As for that shameless Qu Shancun, this kind of person will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and he is not bound by benevolence, righteousness and morality, and he can often quickly open up the situation and send him to Longxi Province, which has no foundation at all, and it won't take a few years to help your fourth brother lay a foundation. ”

King Su was stunned for a long time when he heard this, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's really complicated, I can't understand these benefits in my life." ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "You are wrong, these are small ways, and you are doing the way of a dignified gentleman, use more yang conspiracy in everything, less conspiracy, and only by being upright can you keep the world in mind and embrace all rivers, you look at your father, he is this kind of person." ”

King Su smiled: "Father Emperor Tianzong is a genius, a generation of male masters, how can I compare with him?" ”

Xu Rui smiled and said nothing, but suddenly asked, "Actually, have you ever thought about becoming an emperor yourself?" ”

King Su waved his hand and said, "Brother Xu, why are you sarcastic about me? I'm impulsive, willful, and jealous and hateful, I can't be with the light, and I won't hold back, do you think I'm like a good emperor? ”

Xu Rui shook his head: "It's not like it now." ”

King Su said: "That's not it, in fact, I invited you out for a walk today to tell you something, although you are in charge of the military department, you probably already know, but I still want to tell you in person." ”

Hearing him mention this, Xu Rui sighed: "Why are you suffering?" ”

King Su said with a smile: "Everyone has their own aspirations, the battlefield is my destination, my father has allowed me to go to the northeast to take over the 90,000 border troops close to the Northern Qi, this time it is not a horse, but the real commander of either side." ”

Xu Rui was silent for a moment and said, "I will transfer a batch of firearms to you as soon as possible......"

King Su shook his head: "That's not necessary, I will look for you when I want to, this time I have more or less heavy troops in my hands is also a solidarity for the fourth brother, plus you are in the court, the fourth brother can be a lot more stable, and I also ask for benevolence, the eagle spreads its wings." ”

Xu Rui hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "I haven't promised to help your fourth brother fight for the throne, but I just promised him to keep him alive and dead." ”

King Su smiled: "You, you are hard-mouthed, you are fighting for the prince, if you don't sit on the throne yourself, how can you save the lives of others?" You've done everything you need to do, but you still don't say it, why bother? ”

Xu Rui walked silently and did not answer.

The two came to a fork in the road, King Su stopped, and arched his hand towards Xu Rui: "I sent you out last year, and today I will say goodbye to you here, and I will take office in three days, don't come to see me off when the time comes, I am not as free and easy as you, I am afraid that I will not go if my heart is soft, and I am afraid that I will be beaten by my father when the time comes." ”

Xu Rui thought for a while, nodded and said, "Pay attention to your body, I'll wait for you to come back, I hope you will still be a teenager when you return!" ”

King Su laughed, turned around and walked towards another road, and said loudly as he walked: "Go out happily, how can I be a Penghao person!" ”

Xu Rui looked at King Su's back in a daze, and suddenly stood in the moonlight, and the shadow was stretched to the elder.
