Chapter 133: Stand-in

"The Governor of Wuzhou sits in Wuzhou, King Qi still relied on him to make his fortune, and his power is not small, since he feels sorry for the daughter of Princess Qi, so he loves the house and Wu, and he will definitely treat Xiao Qingming as a treasure, but you see Xiao Qingming doing nonsense in the capital, and he has never seen him come out to control, and he has never even taken care of it, and the guards around Xiao Qingming are also three-legged cats who can't be put on the stage, and the Governor of Wuzhou, as his grandfather, will not even be reluctant to give a few guards to his grandson, right?"

"It was rumored that the Governor of Wuzhou had someone secretly guarding Xiao Qingming, so he dared to be so arrogant in the capital, don't look at his guards are three-legged cats, but he has been rampant in the capital for so many years, but he has never suffered a loss, even the last time you went to Dali Temple, in the end it just made him stop for a few days, these days are not the same as before."

"Rumors are just rumors, and no one knows whether the Governor of Wuzhou takes Xiao Qingming to heart, after all, no one has ever seen those 'secret guards'. However, I think that the governor of Wuzhou is known for his rigorous management of the army, his children and grandchildren are all young in the army, brave and good at fighting, defending the family and defending the country, there has not been a single gentleman in the family, and there is a family motto in the world, how can such a person let his grandson grow into a gentleman? ”

"What do you mean to say, this one in the capital is an imposter who has been transferred by Princess Qi, and the real Prince of Qi is in Wuzhou?" Cheng Chan began to think about this possibility, in the back house, there is almost nothing impossible, Concubine Wu may force Princess Qi to retreat, and Princess Qi may also steal the beam and change the pillar, and send her only son to the safety of Wuzhou.

In King Qi's mansion, Xiao Qingming had to work hard to survive, let alone grow into a person with a sound personality

Although Xiao Qingming in the capital looks a little similar to Emperor Longqing, presumably with King Qi in the south will also be a little like father and son, but it is not related by blood that they will be similar, with the ability of the Governor of Wuzhou, it is not difficult to find a child with a similar appearance to the Xiao family.

"But it's all come to this point, why doesn't Princess Qi get along?" Cheng Chan thought about it and felt incomprehensible, "The Metropolitan Governor loves his daughter, he shouldn't be willing to let his daughter live in the Longtan Tiger's Den, if Princess Qi is for the sake of her only son, she has to continue to stay in the Qi Palace, and she can barely say it, but if Xiao Qingming is really sent to a safe place, why should she continue to stay in the Qi Palace?" ”

"We don't know the situation in the south of the capital, but I think whether it is Princess Qi or the Governor of Wuzhou, in addition to King Qi, there is also the emperor's cousin, and now the two sides are like fire and water, and the result of the Governor of Wuzhou not helping each other is that he is not a person inside and outside, the emperor is afraid that he supports the army and is self-respecting, and King Qi is wary of him taking refuge in the emperor. Princess Qi is mentioning peace and leaving, King Qi will not let her go back to Nanzhou, but will tear her face with the emperor in advance, the two sides will go to war, holding Princess Qi as a hostage, the governor of Wuzhou can only throw herself to King Qi. Of course, there is also a situation that Princess Qi commits suicide, and the governor of Wuzhou either sits back and watches the snipe and clam fight, or is loyal to the emperor, no matter which path he chooses, he can ensure that Princess Qi's only bloodline is safe. ”

Cheng Zhan and Cheng Jin glanced at each other, and read sighs and sighs in each other's eyes, although it is not yet the last moment, the end of Princess Qi is already doomed.

"But I think our son in the capital is arrogant and domineering, and he doesn't seem to be a fake at all, if he is an impostor, where does he get the confidence to be so arrogant, and he doesn't have a heart at all?"

"I don't think the prince of Qi was changed on the way to Beijing, not only the people of King Qi who sent the prince of Qi into Beijing, but also the people of Su Xiang back then, and they were closely monitored all the way, just to prevent him from changing people halfway, at that juncture, the governor of Wuzhou would not change people rashly, not to mention that this idea is nine times out of ten that he discussed it with Su Xiang, why is there any need to change people?" Cheng Jin pondered, "I'm afraid that not long after Concubine Wu entered the mansion, Princess Qi found an opportunity to change people. ”

"That's going to be more than ten years." Cheng Chan was secretly frightened, if Cheng Jin's guess was true, this Princess Qi would be too forbearing, "Could it be that Concubine Wu assassinated the real Xiao Qingming, Princess Qi sent Xiao Qingming away in a desperate gamble, and in order to cover up that the real Xiao Qingming had gone to Wuzhou, she had to stay in King Qi's mansion and live with that stand-in, that stand-in has been in the mansion since childhood, and his memory is easy to be covered up, he feels that he is the real prince of Qi, and under the indulgence of Princess Qi and the ignorance of King Qi, he has become a real gentleman." ”

Cheng Jin nodded, "I also think this is the most likely, as for why Princess Qi hasn't left all these years, I think about it, maybe she can't leave anymore." The secret art of the Southern Barbarians is unpredictable, and Princess Qi may have been controlled by Concubine Wufang's means in the deep mansion compound of King Qi's mansion alone. ”

Cheng Chuan was terrified, "Rao is the governor of Wuzhou is powerful, and he loves his only beloved daughter to the bone, Princess Qi still can't escape the life of being trapped in the inner house, if he knew that his beloved daughter would end up like this, presumably the governor of Wuzhou would rather let his daughter not marry for the rest of his life, and would not force her to marry King Qi." ”

"The world is changeable, people's hearts are unpredictable, if you expected that there would be today's changes, the first emperor would not have reused King Qi." Cheng Jin paused and said with a smile, "However, if everything is the same, then this world is boring." ”

"You are open-minded, there is some truth in this," Cheng Chan laughed, "Although these are our conjectures, since Xiao Qingming in the capital may not be the main master, it is the grasshopper after the autumn, and it won't be able to jump for a few days, so let him go rampant, and we don't have to bother with him." ”

"That's not what I said, no matter what the truth is, eldest sister, you were played and abandoned by them as a chess piece, whether it is to the prince of Qi or to the emperor, I can't swallow this breath, since they want to drag our Chengenhou Mansion into the water, then we will end up and make the water more muddy, and we can't suffer this loss in vain." Knowing the events of her previous life, Cheng Jin was annoyed in her heart, these people surnamed Xiao used to cross the river and tear down the bridge, but she didn't let them get their wish.

Cheng Jin's words sounded a bit scoundrel, even rebellious, but instead of reprimanding her, Cheng Chan, who had always been steady, showed a look of approval, "You just said that you want to spread some gossip about King Qi's mansion, this matter is not impossible, just by going to the restaurant and teahouse to spread some gossip, it is difficult to make any splashes, why don't I introduce you personally." ”

"Who?"

"Yan Hong, the owner of Ruyi Bookstore."
