Chapter 167: The night is as cold as water

"Mom." He Wei County Lord Zheng Shuwei sat on the steps outside the dormitory, leaned against Lao Hao, and whispered.

The lanterns hanging on the road flickered and flickered, and she had been looking at them for a long time, and her eyes were a little dizzy.

Is it because the flowers and plants in the county lord's mansion are too luxuriant? Summer insects squeak and make it itchy to the ears and make it difficult to sleep.

The hand gently patted Zheng Shuwei's shoulder, and said in a harmonious voice: "The county lord feels uncomfortable, cry, just cry." ”

Zheng Shuwei's fingers hung on the ground, rubbing the edge of the cold marble steps, the shells that had been smeared with fine mud. That year, His Majesty allowed the opening of the mansion, and the second uncle sent things from the island thousands of miles to decorate all parts of the mansion to comfort the pain of homesickness.

Now, these things in the palace are just reminding her from time to time that she has not avenged her revenge.

"Mom," her fingers ached from a cracked shell, but she didn't stop her movements, and said slowly, "The prince asked me to wait for him." He said that now that the war is urgent, when he returns to Beijing from the north, he can borrow 10,000 troops to return to the island to kill Zheng Xie. ”

After saying this, she bit her lip and said, "This is prevarication, right?" If he wanted to, he could order Zheng Xie to come to Beijing to receive the crime, and then he could be interrogated and detained, so why did he need to lead the troops to kill? ”

Lao Yu shook his head and said: "The county lord doesn't know, Zheng Xie has 10,000 reasons to refuse to come to Beijing, he just has to shrink in the island, and no one can do anything to him." As for the edict? A layer of disdain flashed on her face and said, "Doesn't the county lord know that the prince has no right to draft an edict at all?" ”

The crown prince, you don't have the right to draft an edict?

That's right, now Li Zhang is regent, and Her Royal Highness the Queen is in charge of the six palaces. In the end, the prince is nothing more than a puppet that can be deposed at any time.

"But," she raised her head and said cautiously, "I see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no problem with his body now, and if His Majesty wakes up, he may not ......."

"Won't anything?" The old man sighed and said, "After holding the government with the regent for several years, it is not in vain that you waste your energy. Look at this time, why it was the crown prince who went on the expedition. By the end of her sentence, her voice had become low and almost inaudible.

Zheng Shu stood up with a slight "whew", and almost tripped over his skirt.

"How does this work?" She took a few steps forward and said, "I'm going to hurry to the barracks to warn." ”

She and the prince have grown up together, although sometimes it is not clear whether the heart of wanting to marry the prince is because she likes it, or because she doesn't want him to be taken away by others. But now that he knew he was in danger, there was no reason not to warn him.

Lao Hao stepped forward and grabbed her thin arm.

"County Lord," she said in a clear voice, "Since the slave family can see through this matter, the prince naturally understands." And now, do you want revenge, county lord, or do you want to be a child? ”

The chirping of the summer insect seemed to stop for a moment, Zheng Shuwei's ears were empty, and his mind was empty.

"Because of what followed," her voice was cold, "I am now the same enemy as the prince." ”

From Cai Xie's mouth, she already knew that the reason why Zheng Xie dared to make a move was because she wanted to keep Zheng Shuwei in Beijing in the future, and let Zheng Xie take charge of the island.

"No," the old man's voice seemed to come from the ground, with a withered tidal aura: "The prince is now unable to protect himself. If the county lord wants to take revenge, he can only rely on the strongest force. ”

Zheng Shu hesitated slightly.

The strongest force is naturally Li Zhang. Successor......

Lao Yu's eyes were clear, she held Zheng Shuwei's hand with both hands, and said, "Revenge, you don't have to win it all at once." Use the strongest to control the weakest, and when you are also the strongest, you can kill anyone at will......"
