Chapter 196: Slapping the Ancient Scheming Sister in the Face (15)
The struggle for the throne of the three princes has become more and more intense, and it has gradually formed a grim form, and everyone is in danger, only the emperor is quietly sitting on Diaoyutai, and Xue Lan is loyal to the emperor and has never expressed his position.
If you really want to calculate it strictly, Xue Lan has a good relationship with the three princes, and she has crossed paths three or twice, but she will not lose all her net worth for this. Coupled with the previous rumors, it is absolutely impossible for the third prince to get Zhang Xuelan's support.
Time always flies quickly, and the princes under the emperor's knees gradually grow up, showing their edge, among which the five princes are the most outstanding, personable and brilliant, and the tasks given to him by the emperor are completed perfectly, and another force has been formed invisibly.
However, the status of the fifth prince is not high and unknown, so that the other princes did not take him to heart and concentrated on dealing with the three stronger princes.
The emperor's body is as healthy as ever, and there is no problem at all if he lives for another ten or eight years, the long-lived emperor is a very cruel and torturous thing for an adult prince, seeing that there are more and more competitors around him, the emperor's body is getting better and better, and the distance from ascending the throne is getting farther and farther, and the princes are gradually panicking.
If you say who is the prince who has been in the limelight recently, it is tantamount to the only son of the noble concubine Niangniang, the seventh prince, who is the most favored, has done several good cases, and will please people and be filial, and has won the praise of the emperor, and it is even rumored that the emperor belongs to the seven princes, and the seven princes are the future emperor.
The rumors are not trustworthy, but the emperor's attitude is worth studying, the emperor is really too good to the seven princes, and even handed over part of the military power to the seven princes, which makes those princes unable to sit still. They can tolerate other princes to be favored by the emperor, but they must not let the other party become big and thus take away their throne.
In the study room of the Three Princes' Mansion, the Three Princes sat on the chair with a gloomy face, their fists clenched as if they were forbearing, and finally they couldn't control the emotions surging in their hearts, and their arms swept away the things on the table, and they fell to the ground with a crackling sound.
Damn, this prince must not let Lao Qi get cheap, but the bamboo basket is empty, maybe he can't even save his life.
"You let me in, I have something to look for His Royal Highness the Third Prince, you tell me to go in--" The voice of the woman outside the door came from afar, and the third prince's already irritable mood exploded instantly, and he suddenly stood up and opened the door, and his voice was mixed with the momentum of the wind and rain.
"What are you arguing about outside? All for this prince to roll down and get the board. ”
"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, the slave has something to say, it is a very important word, it is related to the throne." Zhang Yurou knelt on the ground in a coarse linen dress, knelt on the ground and begged, she was really fed up with such days, she must change all this, this is already the only bargaining chip in her hand, she must seize this opportunity.
The third prince wanted to ask someone to drag Zhang Yurou down and beat him to death, but this woman was not only useless to him but even dragged him back, he had long been impatient. But hearing Zhang Yurou's words, the footsteps of the third prince couldn't help but pause, and his heart was a little different.
"This prince will give you another chance, if you dare to tell a lie, this prince will let you die without a place to be buried." Pulling up the sleeves on his body, the third prince spoke coldly.
The dull atmosphere in the palace was constantly spreading, as if to herald the arrival of a storm, and the continuous rainy days lasted for a month.
"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night!" Xue Lan stretched out her hand, and the fluttering rain fell on the palm of her hand, bringing a hint of coolness, and the continuous rain heralded the next unrest.
"My lord, a group of people have broken in at the door." The middle-aged housekeeper trotted over and opened his mouth in a panic.
"Don't be impatient...... Xue Lan gathered the single clothes on her body, opened her mouth lightly, and went to get a cloak by the way, she didn't want to get the wind chill later.
Soon, the sound of armor colliding came, and a team of more than 100 people broke into Zhang's house, kicked over the door of Xue Lan's bedroom, and stood straight at the door waiting for the arrival of the master.
A pink embroidered shoe jumped into view, and it was a long aqua blue skirt on the Internet, with a delicate and familiar face, but unfortunately the person who came had a thin body and a haggard face, and he couldn't hold this beauty at all, it was Zhang Yurou who had not been seen for a long time.
"Zhang Xuelan, I didn't expect you to be here today." Zhang Yurou looked at Xue Lan, who was dressed in single clothes, and snorted coldly and laughed arrogantly. All the grievances she has suffered in the past few years, she has to repay Zhang Xuelan doubled.
"As the saying goes, a hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, Zhang Yurou, you still have a time when you are proud." Xue Lan found a place to sit down, her expression was calm, not at all like being surrounded by people, but like playing in the garden.
"Zhang Xuelan, I will be the queen soon, even if you calculate that I will frame me, I can still become the most noble woman in the world, and then you will wait for the torture to become a human being, and then be cut by a thousand knives!" After the most vicious and cruel punishment in her mind, Zhang Yurou sneered.
"How do you know how I'm dead, not you?" Xue Lan smiled faintly, quite a kind of demeanor like Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his color.
"Someone, grab him for me and put him in a dungeon." Zhang Yurou waved her hand, if she hadn't promised the third prince not to do anything before the dust settled, Zhang Xuelan would have died ten thousand times.
Xue Lan smiled coldly and stretched out her hand and waved a palm, and the guards fell to the ground crookedly, losing their balance all of a sudden, and so did Zhang Yurou, and then a dodge disappeared, even the housekeeper just now.
"Come on, search for me--" When she woke up, Zhang Yurou shouted angrily, and her voice filled the entire Zhang family.
At this time, in the palace, the emperor was surrounded by a large number of people, and the three princes stood in the most conspicuous place in the royal robes, and the corners of their eyes and eyebrows were full of pride.
"Father, my son advises you to write an edict of succession! In this way, the retainer will also make you less bitter. The third prince raised his eyebrows, Zhang Yurou, this woman is not completely useless, at least if it weren't for this woman, he would not have successfully grabbed the handle of the eldest prince and the second prince to get the military power in their hands.
"You are a rebel, don't think about it--" The emperor was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, his face was red, and he picked up the inkstone on the imperial case and threw it over.
"Then it's up to you." The third prince dodged the inkstone, and a little ink stain fell on his body, and he sneered and spoke.
