A few days later, Sheng Hong also received a secret report from Beijing.

After reading the secret report, Sheng Hong's brows furrowed, and he hadn't opened it for a long time.

Who wants to kill King Ping?

A Luo, who was a toddler, staggered to Sheng Hong and stretched out her hand to hug her: "Dad, hug!" ”

In a few days, Arlo will turn one year old. Ah Luo is articulate and can already speak simple words. Sheng Hong immediately put the letter aside, and picked up Ah Luo with a smile: "Okay, dad will hug you." ”

Sheng Hong had a lot of strength, and easily held A Luo in the air a few times.

Arlo giggled.

Brother You on the side looked at Sheng Hong with longing eyes: "Hug, Feifei." ”

The mountains and rivers of Shu are beautiful, and the climate is pleasant. After Brother You came to Shudi, he adapted well, except for an occasional minor illness, there was no major problem.

Sheng Hong also likes the quiet and obedient Brother You'er, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll hold you Feifei." ”

Now the affairs of civil affairs are quite smooth, and the affairs of the military camp are also on the right track. Sheng Hong is no longer as busy as he was at the beginning. Every few days, he will deliberately stay in the house to rest for a day and accompany his wife and daughter. Today, Xie Mingxi and Lin Weiwei went to the academy, and Sheng Hong has been accompanying A Luo and Brother You.

Ah Luo has two nurses and four maids around her, and there are many people around Brother You. A bunch of people watched His Royal Highness the King of Shu coax the two children to play happily, and they all sighed in their hearts.

In the hearts of everyone, men are meant to do great things. In ordinary people's homes, it is also a woman's business to take care of children, and few men are willing to accompany young children.

His Royal Highness the King of Shu is extremely fond of the little lord of Aluo. When you are busy, you don't have time to accompany you, and you feel guilty. Whenever I have time, I will be by my side.

The little county lord Ah Luo has a domineering temperament, and when he saw his father holding Brother You'er, he was a little unhappy, and shouted crisply: "Dad! Hug! ”

Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Okay, dad hug together." ”

Anyway, he has a lot of strength, and he doesn't feel tired when he holds a child in one hand.

Ah Luo and Brother You were hugged in a circle together, dancing happily. When they were tired of playing, the nurses brought egg custard specially prepared for children.

Sheng Hong took the bowl and patiently fed Ah Luo egg custard.

Brother You couldn't compete with Ah Luo this time, so he glanced at it with some grievances, and then silently fed the custard by the nurse. Ah Luo ate quickly, and after eating, Sheng Hong fed Brother You egg custard again.

Ah Luo had a full stomach, and she didn't make a fuss anymore, and happily lay on Sheng Hong's lap to play.

When Xie Mingxi and Lin Weiwei returned home, what they saw was this harmonious and beautiful scene.

Lin Weiwei couldn't help but smile: "I really didn't expect that His Highness would like to accompany children so much." "Look at the gentle, careful and extraordinarily patient appearance, even myself, and I can't do it.

Xie Mingxi stared at her husband, who was extremely gentle with a smile in his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth were raised.

……

After lunch, Ah Luo was picked up for a nap, and the couple had a chance to be alone.

Sheng Hong sent the secret report to Xie Mingxi: "Concubine Li died of illness, and King Ping secretly hid a dagger in his sleeve and stabbed the queen. A few words, shocking to hear.

Xie Mingxi restrained his smile, read the secret report carefully, and then said lightly: "Someone must be secretly making trouble in this matter." ”

"King Ping was young and hot-blooded and impulsive, and as soon as he was instigated, he regarded Empress Xiao as an enemy. I want to 'avenge' for Concubine Li. Hurt Queen Xiao, Emperor Jian'an will not spare King Ping. Once the news spreads, Emperor Jian'an will have a bad reputation for killing his siblings.

"Although the king of Ningxia is under house arrest in the imperial mausoleum, there is still power in the court. After knowing this, there will be measures to protect King Ping. ”

"This plan not only calculated King Ping of Ningxia, but also calculated Emperor Jian'an. It's brilliant! ”

Sheng Hong was silent for a moment before he sighed: "King Lu, King Min." ”

The mastermind behind the scenes must be one of the two of them.

King An was only nine years old and had been in the palace all the time. This matter should have nothing to do with him.

A hint of coolness flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes: "Perhaps, the two of them have secretly joined forces." ”

"How is this possible?" Sheng Hong subconsciously retorted.

"How could it be?" Xie Mingxi tugged at the corners of his mouth, his eyes were cold: "The power of one person, how can he compete with the emperor above ten thousand people!" King Lu and King Min joined forces in private, but they had the strength to fight. ”

Fight for it.

These four words are extremely scary to think about.

Emperor Jian'an did not allow the vassal king to become a vassal domain, so he insisted on leaving King Lu and others in the capital, and rubbed it in every possible way.

Concubine Li died, King Ping didn't know how to be disposed of, and King Ningxia didn't know how to react. King Lu and King Min have their own thoughts in their hearts, and they don't know what kind of means they will use in secret......

A glimmer of light flashed in Sheng Hong's eyes, and he looked at Xie Mingxi fixedly: "Mingxi, in your opinion, when will there be chaos in the capital?" ”

Xie Mingxi thought for a moment before he said slowly: "Fast is one or two years, slow is three or five years!" In short, you and I have to be mentally prepared. We must be prepared to be affected. ”

Even if you have left the capital, it does not mean that you are absolutely safe. Once the capital is in turmoil, the king of Shu, as a vassal king, will definitely be implicated in the whirlpool.

Sheng Hong nodded: "Don't worry, I will recruit private soldiers as soon as possible and practice urgently." ”

Not to mention the political competition, only those who have soldiers in their hands are the most down-to-earth.

Xie Mingxi snorted, and said softly: "Remember to write a letter to the concubine." She was in the palace, and when she saw Concubine Li die of illness, she was afraid that her heart was not right. ”

……

The weather soon turned cooler.

After Concubine Li was buried, the concubines in the palace each fell ill. Concubine Duan, who was not yet in her thirties, was the most seriously ill. The young An Wang didn't even go to the academy, and waited at the bed all day long.

Concubine Duan's careful thoughts, Empress Dowager Yu saw it clearly, she was too lazy to expose it, and let King An stay in the palace.

When the mother and son were alone in private, Concubine Duan dared to choke up and advise: "In the future, you will be honest and peaceful." Your father is no longer there, and now it is your third brother who sits on the dragon chair. ”

"He is a small-minded man who loves to hold grudges, and has no pity for his brothers and sisters."

"The queen mother suffered a little flesh wound, so he thoroughly inspected King Ping's bedroom and interrogated the people around King Ping one by one. In the end, he didn't find out the truth, and in a fit of anger, he actually killed all the palace maids. Dozens of lives are gone in the blink of an eye. ”

"Now, poor King Ping is under house arrest in the dormitory. After taking the soft muscles, the whole body was weak after not walking a few steps. There are people around me all the time, and there are no less than three meals a day. King Keping is stubborn and refuses to eat. No one persuaded me, and I don't know how many days I can last if I go on like this. ”

"In this palace, I don't know how much chaos will be born. Don't go to the academy to study, just stay by my side. I can always watch over you for a day with my eyes open......"

Tears as he spoke.

King An's slightly chubby handsome face was also overflowing with hesitation and horror, leaning on Concubine Duan's head and sobbing in a low voice.
