The suburbs of the capital city of Xichu, the hot spring villa.

Nalan Ye looked at the two guards on duty outside the wing, and the latter saluted at the same time: "Lord Wang." ”

"Open the door." Nalan said coldly at night.

"Yes."

In fact, the door was not closed, it opened as soon as it was pushed, and Nalan Ye saw at a glance that Nangong Qing was the same as four days ago, and he didn't even change his sitting posture, still sitting silently. I heard him open the door, but I didn't even open my eyes, let alone say anything in response.

has been locked up by Nalan Night for four days, in fact, according to Nangong Qing's skills, there is no problem in getting out of this room. But he knew that since he didn't agree to Nalan Ye's conditions, even if he got out of the wing, it would be impossible for him to get out of the Hot Spring Villa, and since this was the case, he didn't bother to bother with it.

Nalan Ye also has this confidence, he knows that as long as he doesn't agree, Nangong Qing will not sneak away and do such a thing. And Nangong Qing knew that even if he secretly went back to report the news, if he didn't change his mind, the crisis of Emperor Xichu would not be resolved.

Walking into the wing room with his hands in his hands, Nalan stood still at night, and then the door was closed by the guards again.

Separated by a door, it seems like two worlds, the room is silent, the needle drop can be heard, and the breathing of both people can be heard clearly. Nalan Ye looked at Nangong Qing quietly, then sat opposite him, and said lightly: "You still have three days." ”

Three days later, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Banquet, and news had already spread in the palace, because the fifth prince Nangongchen was about to marry the concubine, and this year it was going to be lively. Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Xichu wantonly organized this Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Banquet in order to quell the previous assassination of Nalan Night, as well as the siege of the city some time ago.

It's just a whitewash.

But since Emperor Xichu ordered it to be done, the courtiers naturally had to move. Not only that, but it must also be more lively and attentive than in previous years in order to show the prosperity of Guotai and Min'an.

Nangong Qing had already learned this news from Nalan Night. He didn't know what reason Nalan Ye was looking for, he hadn't returned to the Prince's Mansion for four days, but no one noticed, or even if he did, no one was looking for him. Nangong Qing has always known Nalan Ye's methods, as long as he wants to, there is nothing he can't do.

The more this happened, the more worried and scared Nangong Qing became.

Three days......

Could it be that three days later, Nalan Ye was going to assassinate his father?

Just after Nalan Ye finished speaking, Nangong Qing finally raised his head, his eyes were gloomy, and his voice seemed to tremble a little: "You...... Do you really insist on this? He no longer wanted to believe that his former confidant brother would one day kill his father and force him to inherit the throne.

What is it called?

Did Nalan Ye think that this was for his good? Nalan Ye has a grudge against his father, he is a father and son on the one hand, and a brotherhood on the other, the palms and backs of his hands are meat, and he doesn't know how to choose. Nalan Ye knew this, why did he force him like this? He didn't think about forcing the palace at all, nor did he think about becoming an emperor at such a time, why did Nalan Ye think he would be willing?

It was because his father misunderstood that Luo Qingluan had an affair with Han Xun and suspected her of betraying Xichu, so there was that city-wide arrest? Nangong Qing admitted that this was indeed his father's fault, but Luo Qingluan escaped after all, and nothing really happened?

And what happened later was based on this incident, if Nalan Ye did not lead troops to besiege the city, his father would not have been so distracted and seriously ill that he would have neurotically leaked Nalan Ye's whereabouts, so that he was seriously injured by the sneak attack of the North Vietnamese.

Thinking of these things, Nangong Qing's whole heart fluttered.

Is it really going to come this far, and there will be no turning back? Three days later, the entire Xichu would be in chaos, and he couldn't imagine what situation Xichu would face.

"Nalan night, for the ...... You and I have known each other for many years, and for the sake of a friendship...... You, can you ......" trembling slightly, Nangong Qing stared at Nalan Ye directly, and said word by word: "Give up this operation, don't, don't kill my father?" ”

"This will make Xichu chaotic! Do you know—"

The last sentence, Nangong Qing almost roared hard, he gasped for breath, his face twitched violently, and his originally handsome face became hideous, like a beast on the verge of death.

"I don't want to be an emperor, and I don't want you to call the shots for me. Although my father is at fault, his sin is not death, as a courtier of Xichu, how can you commit such a big crime of rebellion? Nalan Ye, you are the god of war in Western Chu, how can you let the people of Western Chu fall into war? ”

When Nangong Qing finished speaking, there was no sound in the room for a long time.

Nalan Ye just looked at him, with complicated emotions in his eyes, and his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see what he was thinking at all.

"Nalan Night, I'll ask you one last time, if you really want to go your own way." Nangong Qing's face was gloomy, looking at him as if he was looking at an enemy, gritting his teeth and saying, "Even for the sake of our friendship for many years, you won't give up?" ”

"It looks like these few days have been wasted." Nalan Ye didn't get angry, just looked at Nangong Qing indifferently, "What I decided will never change." I said that if I want to kill Emperor Xichu, I will definitely kill him, and no one can change it, including you. ”

After saying that, Nalan Ye turned around and was about to leave, but Nangong Qing couldn't stand it anymore.

He roared in rage, jumped up directly from his seat, and struck Nalan Ye in the back with a fist. It's just that his movement was too loud, and the wind was whistling, and Nalan Ye dodged as soon as he flashed. immediately fought back, slapped him on the fist, even in normal times, Nangong Qin was not Nalan Ye's opponent, not to mention that he was now making a move with hatred, and he was disorderly.

I only heard a loud bang, and Nangong Qing was beaten upside down and flew out, crushing the tables and chairs. He collapsed to the ground, in severe pain, and only struggled to get up, but he did not succeed for a long time, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Nalan Ye glanced at him coldly and didn't say a word.

"Nalan Ye, the brotherly relationship between you and me is broken off today." Nangong Qing gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't kill me today, I will kill him one day......"

Before he finished speaking, a guard from the Dark Night Hall outside hurriedly came and saluted Nalan Ye with his fists clasped: "Lord Wang, there is the latest urgent news." With that, he handed over a note with both hands.

Nalan Ye took a look, only to see that his pupils shrank suddenly, and he didn't believe what he saw.

After reading it three times in a row, his sharp gaze almost wanted to penetrate the paper, Nalan Ye suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahahaha...... Qingluan, Qingluan, you're really fine. I knew it...... I knew ......"

It wasn't until now, when Nalan Ye saw the letter written by Luo Qingluan with his own eyes, that he was able to believe that the woman he loved was not dead. This is something he looks forward to every day, although he has always felt that it is impossible, but when it is really realized now, Nalan Ye has a feeling for the first time, it turns out that God will really pity him.

Looking at Nalan Ye's wild smile and joyful appearance, Nangong Qing was a little confused. He got up in embarrassment, his whole body was covered with sawdust, and the back of his hand was still aching, but Nalan Ye's appearance made him dare not move.

This man was obviously still angry and crazy just now, wanting to kill him, why did he take the initiative to mention Luo Qingluan now? And instead of getting angry, laughing like this?

How could Nangong Qing know that Nalan Ye had always misunderstood him. All kinds of mistakes made Nalan Ye always think that Luo Qingluan had died under the persecution of Emperor Xichu, and now that he had misunderstood Bing Shi, how could he not be happy?

Full of joy, now that Nalan looked at Nangong Qing again at night, he actually changed his mood again.

However, his decision has not changed, the operation has been arranged, and he will never cancel it. It's just that the results can vary slightly......

"Nangong Qing, do you know what news I received?" A mocking smile tugged at the corner of Nalan Ye's lips.

Fortunately, his Qingluan was fine, and he passed such important news to him in time, otherwise if he continued, I was afraid that he and Nangong Qing would really turn against each other because of a misunderstanding.

Nangong Qin didn't know what to do, he only felt that Nalan Ye's ridicule was extremely stinging, and he said coldly: "You can just say what you want, you don't need to humiliate me like this." ”

"Humiliate you, I don't have so much time to waste. Nangong Qing, do you know that you are here to persuade me to give up, but what is your fifth brother going to do, do you know? Thinking of the news he had just received, Nalan Ye actually had a feeling of schadenfreude, "As the crown prince of the Western Chu Kingdom, you will not hesitate to sever our friendship for the sake of your suspicious father. But you would never have thought that your fifth brother Nangong Chen would actually think of rebelling, right? ”

"Let me tell you, Nangong Chen is ready, just waiting to do it on the day of his wedding! Not only will he kill your father, but he will not let you go. ”

"What?" Nangong Qing was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and he was stunned on the spot.

"Nalan night, you say...... Fifth brother he、He wants to rebel? No, it's impossible, how dare the fifth brother rebel? Where did he get his manpower, and where did he get his armament? Nangong Qing was dejected and couldn't believe it at all.

"You underestimate your fifth brother." Nalan Ye smiled faintly and said: "Nangong Chen colluded with Jiangbei County to guard Du Ji'an, privately cast armaments, and hoarded explosives. Collusion with the forbidden army with bad intentions. Not only did he hide it from you, but even Emperor Xichu also concealed it, so when the time comes, you will wait for him to rebel and make trouble! ”

"When he kills your father and queen mother and ascends to the throne, you, the former crown prince, his eldest brother, are afraid that he will be accused of forcing the palace to rebel, but you will be his scapegoat."

Another basin of cold water was poured down, and Nangong Qing was cold.

He is not a fool, and he will not be kind to a woman, so he knows better that what Nalan Ye said is true. According to the personality of his fifth brother Nangong Chen, once he did these things, he had to take a risk. I'm afraid that three days later, Nangong Chen's wedding day will really be a precarious moment for Western Chu.
