Shang Kelan moved her fingers and patted him on the back, "If mentioning the past makes you sad, forget about it." ”

Wei Chi shook his head, lowered his eyes and said: "My father is greedy and powerful, and for the sake of a favorite concubine, my mother died in the deep palace, even if she is the queen?" ”

The queen also has all kinds of helplessness.

Shang Kelan paused, and could only stay by Wei Chi's side and listen to him quietly.

It must be very uncomfortable to watch his mother being favored by his father and concubine to kill his wife, right?

It's no wonder that he left the Jin Kingdom and wandered on the rivers and lakes for five years.

Wei Chi said this, so he didn't say anything further, but Shang Kelan knew that his life in the palace must be very difficult.

But what she didn't see was that Wei Chi's eyes were a little nervous.

After a moment of silence in the air, Wei Chi raised his head, pursed his lips to look at her, and said, "Now that you know all this, can I continue to stay with you like now?" You...... Do you think I'm disgusting? Even though my mother is dead, I still miss her......"

Wei Chi said, his face was slightly red, and he looked away from Shang Kelan.

Hearing this, Shang Kelan was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and said on his face: "Don't think about it, if it were me, I would also miss my mother, and when I saw someone exactly like my mother, I would unconsciously be good to her." ”

Shang Kelan can understand everything Wei Chi has done, besides, Yu Chi is very clear that she is Shang Kelan, not the queen of the Jin Kingdom.

Hearing this, Wei Chi's heart, which had been "pounding" non-stop, finally stopped.

It's just that as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Shang Kelan's eyes flickering slightly, and turned to look in the direction where the man outside the pavilion had fled, and said, "The reason why you want to kill that person is just that you don't want him to bring my news back to the Jin Kingdom?" ”

Wei Chi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded heavily, "I have long dissociated myself from the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, these people who came to me were all sent by my father, and in addition, now the favorite concubine of the Jin Kingdom Wang Clan has also sent people to assassinate me, but they will not find my whereabouts." ”

After five years of wandering in the rivers and lakes, he became the number one assassin, and naturally had his connections and intelligence network in his hands, and these assassins were secretly cleaned up by his people almost as soon as they fell into his territory.

Shang Kelan couldn't help but chuckle, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "It's still quite challenging to be with you." ”

Although Wei Chi couldn't fully understand the meaning of "challenging" in her words, he could also understand the general idea.

So, Wei Chi's brows relaxed slightly, looked at her and said, "What about you?" What are you going to do with this child? ”

"Born."

Almost as soon as Wei Chi's words fell, Shang Kelan's voice rang out.

She lowered her eyes and looked at her abdomen, and she could clearly feel that she felt a lot more relaxed when she said this.

Wei Chi nodded and responded, "Okay, then I can also rest for a year." ”

He said this jokingly, and the sword eyebrows looked even more handsome without indifference in his eyes.

A smile is what makes people look better.

Noon, the Imperial Palace. 56

In the cabinet hall, a man in an ink-colored brocade robe embroidered with a golden dragon pattern sat on the dragon chair, his brows furrowed slightly, and his dark eyes were a little cold.

I saw Yun Qing standing under him, bowing down and reporting: "Your Majesty, the grass people have found out that the eldest princess went to the hiding place of the foreign army in the capital yesterday with a fake token, and they met at the underground main altar of the pilgrim restaurant. ”

On the side, Chen Shilang said respectfully: "Your Majesty, now is a good time to wipe out those rebels, and sending Lord Wang to do it at this moment is just right to catch the eldest princess off guard!" ”

Jin Yantang glanced at them, then lowered his eyes to look at Yun Qing, and said, "Have you noticed that there have been more people coming in and out of the capital recently?" ”

Yun Qing was stunned for a moment, and before he could speak, he saw Jin Yantang look at Chen Shilang again, and said, "Have you noticed that those royal relatives and old nobles in the court are not supporting the eldest princess, but Concubine Jia?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Shilang was also stunned, and looked at Jin Yantang with some puzzlement.

Jin Yantang slowly got up, came to the center of the main hall, put his hands behind his back, and said with a solemn expression: "The rebels hidden in the underground altar of the pilgrim restaurant by the eldest princess are only less than half of the total number, they can't take the palace at all, they are as smart as the eldest princess, it is impossible for her not to know this." ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Shilang immediately frowned, looked at him and said, "Your Majesty means that someone is conspiring with the eldest princess?" ”

Yun Qing's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't speak.

Soon, without waiting for Jin Yantang to answer, Chen Shilang's face sank, and he said, "Could it be that the voices of the imperial court supporting Concubine Jia were instructed by the eldest princess?" In fact, the eldest princess is headed by Concubine Jia......"

Jin Yantang nodded at him, and said with a cold gaze: "You guessed right, I have already sent Dali Temple to investigate, those people who came to the capital are actually an army in the hands of Concubine Jia, this rebel army is not many in number, but they are all elites, but they are warriors who followed the first emperor during the first emperor's period." ”

"Later, when the first emperor was about to die, he stole these people and changed the pillars, and formed the current army and handed it over to Concubine Jia."

Speaking of this, Chen Shilang said, "Your Majesty, have you found out the location of Concubine Jia's rebel army?" ”

Jin Yantang shook his head, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "I haven't found out yet, Concubine Jia knows me very well, so she acts carefully everywhere, I'm afraid that Zhao Haicheng, the Weiyuan general who was given to death last year, is a member of the rebel army in her hands, and there is the eldest princess in the court as her eyeliner, it will take a while to clean up Concubine Jia and the eldest princess." ”

This game is all about patience, and the one who strikes first will definitely gain an advantage, but not necessarily win.

Jin Yantang was thoughtful, and the reason why he didn't make a move on the people of the eldest princess's general altar was because the rebel army in Zhao Kehan's hands was more threatening!

In the main hall, the atmosphere was very solemn, Chen Shilang and Yun Qing stood aside, thinking in their eyes, and did not speak.

Jin Yantang's voice changed and said, "How is the situation with the left minister?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Lord Zuo Xiang was suppressed by the eldest princess's faction, coupled with the absence of Concubine Chen's mother and monk, Zuo Xiang almost closed his door, the day before yesterday, the grass people heard that Zuo Xiang was sick, but he didn't dare to invite the imperial doctor, and Zuo Xiang's mansion was covered with the eldest princess's eyeliner."

Jin Yantang smiled coldly and said, "It seems that the eldest princess and the two can't wait to make a move against the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, if it weren't for my cowardly posture of retreating, I'm afraid they would have been eager to eradicate my cronies in the court." ”

Concubine Jia and the eldest princess have to take Zuo Xiang under the knife for various reasons, Zuo Xiang once assisted Jin Yantang to kill the first emperor, and his daughter was the favorite concubine by Jin Yantang's side, can Zhao Kehanyan not hate?

Chen Shilang arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that at this time, abandon the Zuo Xiangfu, and use the Zuo Xiang as bait to transfer out the position of Concubine Jia's hidden rebels!" ”

Sacrificing a left minister can solve the internal worries of the imperial court. No matter how you look at it, it's a very cost-effective strategy, and besides, Zuo Xiang is old, and time is running out anyway.

On the side, Yun Qing glanced at Chen Shilang, lowered his eyelids and did not speak.

Jin Yantang's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at him quietly, and asked, "Do you want to sacrifice Zuo Xiang?" ”
