Chapter 64: Alliances
After listening to Lu Shaoyue's instructions, Lilac could only be, although he didn't know how to hire it now, but those guards should have a way, but they just needed to make a few more trips by themselves.
But just when Lilac was about to go out and start preparing for this matter, someone sent a message saying that there was news for Miss, so Lilac took the letter back to Lu Shaoyue's room and gave her the letter.
Lu Shaoyue opened the letter and opened it, but her face became a little confused.
"Miss, whose letter is it, and what does it say?"
Seeing the confused look on Lu Shaoyue's face, Ding Xiang finally couldn't help but ask.
"It's a letter from Chu Tianhao, the fourth prince, inviting me to the teahouse to discuss joining forces to deal with the nine-tailed fox, but do the four princes and the nine-tailed fox also have a grudge, why didn't I know before?"
Although Lu Shaoyue is in Kyoto, and she is the daughter of the prime minister, she doesn't know anything about the intrigue within the court, and she doesn't care much about it, so she doesn't know that the fourth prince Chu Tianhao is now in the relationship with Junnan Oak.
After reading the letter, I still didn't know why, but I felt that the invitation of the four princes to join forces seemed a little abrupt, and I didn't have much intersection with him before.
As Lu Shaoyue's maid, Lilac pays attention to Lu Shaoyue's various small things on weekdays, and naturally it is impossible to understand so much, so she has no clue in the face of Miss's doubts.
"Then do we still want to go to the teahouse to discuss the matter of joining forces with the four princes?"
I don't know about the fourth prince, and I don't know his true purpose, Lilac has no opinion on this matter, she can only obey Miss Lu Shaoyue's arrangement, and it is up to Lu Shaoyue to decide whether to go or not.
"Go, of course!"
Lu Shaoyue said with a face full of certainty, at this time, her heart was all about how to deal with the nine-tailed fox, so as long as she could deal with the nine-tailed fox, she would not miss any opportunity.
In this way, after a carriage and horses, Lu Shaoyue came to the teahouse that the four princes said and entered the private room, and the four princes had already arrived and waited for a long time.
Lu Shaoyue made a salute, and she was not familiar with the treatment of the four princes, so she naturally did not be presumptuous.
"I heard that the four princes also want to deal with the nine-tailed fox beside Jun Nanqi, but Shaoyue doesn't understand why, have I ever heard that the four princes have a grudge against the nine-tailed fox?"
Lu Shaoyue thought that she was straightforward, so after finishing the trip, she immediately asked her own questions, wanting to get the answers of the four princes.
The fourth prince knew a lot about Lu Shaoyue, and he had already guessed what Lu Shaoyue was going to ask, and he already knew what he was going to ask, so he naturally answered without hurry.
"I don't know which level Miss Lu thinks is higher than the nine-tailed fox or the dragon?"
"The dragon and the nine-tailed fox are both divine beasts, how can there be any level of high or low, and no one has ever seen them compare. β
Lu Shaoyue naturally knew something about the divine beasts, so she answered without much thought.
"Then which level do you think the emperor, as the true dragon emperor, is higher than the nine-tailed fox's true body?"
The expression of the fourth prince remained unchanged, as if he had expected Lu Shaoyue's answer, so as soon as Lu Shaoyue finished speaking, he said another question.
"The true dragon son is also a dragon, so compared to the nine-tailed fox, it is naturally ......"
Speaking of this, Lu Shaoyue finally found out that something was wrong, but fortunately, he didn't say it all, comparing the emperor with the nine-tailed fox, this is a matter of losing his head, even if Lu Shaoyue has no brains, he knows this.
Seeing Lu Shaoyue's appearance, the corners of the fourth prince's mouth rose by an arc, and at this time he had already achieved the effect he wanted.
"Therefore, the birth of the nine-tailed fox is an auspicious sign for the people, but it is a huge threat to the royal family, which means that the authority of the royal family has been greatly challenged. β
The fourth prince continued, but he hid his smile and his face became serious.
"His Majesty the Emperor naturally does not dare to blatantly send people to deal with the nine-tailed fox, after all, it will be bad if it shakes the hearts of the people, but as a prince, how can I sit idly by, it is our prince's duty to worry about the emperor, and it is only I who wants to deal with the nine-tailed fox. β
Saying that, the four princes bowed in the direction of the palace, and the loyalty and concern on their faces were revealed, and it really couldn't be more real.
Lu Shaoyue listened to the words of the four princes, and had long been convinced of the motives of the four princes to deal with the nine-tailed fox, in her naΓ―ve thoughts, it was natural for the four princes to share the emperor's worries, and it showed his conscientiousness as a prince.
"Then your strength should be enough, why do you want to join forces with me, I can't help you with just a woman?"
Even so, Lu Shaoyue also knew how weak her strength was compared to the prince, so she didn't let go of her doubts about joining forces.
"I teamed up with the girl just to borrow the name of the girl, after all, if I act openly as the prince, the people will think that it is the emperor's meaning no matter what, and in the end it is still not conducive to the people's will.
But the girl is different, the girl's single-minded pursuit of the national teacher Jun Nan Oak is a well-known thing in Kyoto, so the girl wants to deal with the nine-tailed fox in order not to confuse Jun Nan Oak, no one will doubt this, so she is looking for the girl to join forces. β
After talking about the reason why he asked Lu Shaoyue to join forces, the four princes did not wait for Lu Shaoyue to speak, and then proposed the help that Lu Shaoyue could bring after joining forces.
"And after joining forces, the girl doesn't need to contribute any manpower and material resources, naturally it will be provided by my prince's mansion, and the girl only needs to let these people deal with the nine-tailed fox in your name. β
Lu Shaoyue was about to ask, but she was blocked by the four princes all of a sudden, she only needed to provide her name, and she didn't have to worry about the rest, and she could deal with her own henchmen, such a good thing Lu Shaoyue naturally would not refuse.
The two quickly reached an agreement and exchanged their opinions and opinions.
Originally, the four princes felt that according to Lu Shaoyue's brainless appearance, they would not be of much help to themselves, but what they didn't expect was that Lu Shaoyue said what Lilac analyzed, but it made the four princes also suddenly, and immediately knew that Lu Shaoyue also had smart people around him to help with advice, and he was more satisfied with joining forces at the moment.
"Now that all matters have been decided, let's go our separate ways, remember not to expose the matter of my alliance with you, otherwise all treaties will be null and void, this is the final bottom line. β
Before leaving, the fourth prince warned that he was really afraid that Lu Shaoyue would poke everything out when he was brainless.
"Don't worry, only you and I know about this matter, and no third person will ever know. β
