Xia Wenxuan frowned and shook his head, "It's just dragging out time!" This king has already seen that the throne will definitely fall into the hands of the second prince, but I am afraid that the day my father dies will be the time when this king dies! Xia Wenxuan said worriedly.

Ling Dongwu thought that Emperor Yongzheng in history could be regarded as an emperor who persecuted his brothers, and he didn't dare to kill several other brothers immediately after Kangxi's death, so he comforted Xia Wenxuan: "No, even if the second prince becomes the emperor, he doesn't dare to do anything to you right away, he just became the emperor, and his foundation is unstable, if he attacks the prince, he will leave a brutal reputation, how to block the mouth of the people in the world!" ”

Xia Wenxuan smiled bitterly: "He wants to kill this king, how can he do it himself, secretly do something bad casually, and this king's life will be gone!" ”

"Lord Wang, please rest assured, the minister will do his best to protect you!" Mu Zicheng said arrogantly.

"I will too!" Ling Dongwu also chimed in.

Xia Wenxuan's eyes eagerly looked at Ling Dongwu and Mu Zicheng, "This king knew that the two of you would help at this critical juncture, so he was in a hurry to call you back, this king came back this time, he didn't dare to bring too many people, only brought two thousand relatives, and secretly arranged five thousand soldiers to mix into Hengyang City, plus the two thousand people you brought, there are also nine thousand, it is impossible to resist the second prince and Song Chengxiang in the capital with 30,000 royal forest troops and personal soldiers, I hope that under the protection of the two of you and these nine thousand elite soldiers, this king can leave safely." ”

"Our current army in Dezhou is more than 100,000 people, except for the 30,000 people that General Jiao brought to Nyingchi, we can transfer some to Hengyang City and pick us up at any time!" Ling Dongwu is still not sharp enough on political issues.

"As early as a year ago, when the emperor was seriously ill, the second prince and Prime Minister Song quietly gathered the 200,000 troops stationed in various border passes in their hands and secretly gathered back to the capital, and now the cities around the capital, Huaiyang City in the south, Hengzhou in the north, Yuzhou in the east, and Xiuwu in the west have been secretly occupied by their troops!"

When Ling Dongwu heard Mu Zicheng say this, he couldn't help but feel worried, worried that with only his own strength and Mu Zicheng's own strength, he would not be able to return to the sky, and he would not be able to protect the three princes.

"The second prince and Prime Minister Song Cheng have transferred back the troops stationed in other places, if the Western Regions soldiers come to attack now, and there are Jiao Hongliang of Linzhi to lead people to resist, it is really not possible and our 100,000 troops in Sichuan will resist, but if the Northern Desert soldiers attack now, our northern defense is empty, and the Northern Desert people will not easily attack the Southern Zhao!" Ling Dongwu reacted extremely at this time, and immediately realized this problem.

Xia Wenxuan and Mu Zicheng both cast approving glances at Ling Dongwu, "Yes, this is the idea of the second prince and Prime Minister Song, we must first eliminate the hidden danger of this king, and then resist foreign invasion!" ”

"If you go outside, you must first settle inside!" Ling Dongwu remembered the policy of the Kuomintang at that time, "They regarded the prince as the main rebel in Nanzhao, so when resisting foreign invasion, they didn't have to go all out, they wanted to solve the domestic unrest factors first, and then work together to fight against foreign invasion, who knows, this not only can not eliminate the prince, but also can't drive away the foreign invasion, let's watch, the strategy of the second prince and Song Cheng is wrong, they will definitely fail!" Ling Dongwu's words are true, she doesn't believe that the second prince and Prime Minister Song Cheng will be more powerful than Lao Jiang!

Mu Zicheng and Xia Wenxuan were both surprised by Ling Dongwu's remarks of 'outside must first be inside', and each praised her twice.

After dinner, the three of them discussed a little more, how to escape in case of a coup d'état in the capital, because Xia Wenxuan would enter the palace early tomorrow morning, so they went to rest early. Ling Dongwu returned to the room in a daze, because he had slept during the day, and now he couldn't sleep, he pushed open the window and looked at the flowers and trees outside the door, and the worry in his heart became more and more serious......

But whether it is life or death, she has already made up her mind, her husband sings and her wife follows, Mu Zicheng goes there, she will go there, she will beat whoever he beats!

On the second day, after the third prince Xia Wenxuan went to court, Mu Zicheng and Ling Dongwu changed into the clothes of ordinary people, and went to wander on the street, observing the terrain by the way. At noon, the two of them were tired, Mu Zicheng inquired about it, and the most famous restaurant in Hengyang was Taibai Building, which was full of three religions and nine streams, all-encompassing, and prosperous.

Mu Zicheng thought that since Ling Dongwu had been with him, he hadn't led her to a decent restaurant once, so he led Ling Dongwu into Taibai Building.

There were more than 20 tables in the bustling lobby, almost all of them were full, Mu Zicheng saw that there was an empty table in the corner of the wall, and pulled Ling Dongwu to sit down, and then he ordered Xiao Er to serve the dishes, ginger fish fillet, Luohan prawns, fresh mushroom cabbage sum, fried chicken, Ling Dongwu saw that he still wanted to go down, and hurriedly stopped, "Okay, just enough to eat!" Can't eat and waste the leftovers! ”

"It's rare to go out with you, of course I want to order more delicious food!"

"Then you can't spend money indiscriminately, your money has to be kept for the future to feed me!" Ling Dongwu whispered in Mu Zicheng's ear.

Mu Zicheng looked back at her with a happy and sweet smile, if it weren't for the fact that there were many people here, I really wanted to kiss her pure little face.

After the food came up, Ling Dongwu was not polite, and ate with Mu Zicheng, at this time, they didn't notice at all, and the group went up to the private room on the second floor.

Xiao Haotian sat in the private room on the second floor, casually looking at the crowded and lively lobby downstairs, with more than 20 tables, already full, he snorted coldly in his heart, these drunken Nanzhao people who dreamed of death, did not know that in less than a month at most, they would no longer be able to live such a carefree eating and drinking, this city will be returned to the Northern Desert Country.

His naturally keen intuition made his eyes fall on a table in the corner, even if the two of them lowered their heads to eat, their backs were particularly eye-catching in the crowd, one of them raised his head and looked at the other person who was eating with his head down and said something, he looked carefully and condescendingly, suddenly, his pupils contracted, the familiar side face smiled like a March flower outside the window, a pair of eyes sparkled, all his attention was looking at the man beside her, his expression was full of warmth and love.

This person turned out to be Ling Dongwu, and he didn't need to look closely at Xiao Haotian to know that the person opposite her was Mu Zicheng. Xiao Haotian saw Mu Zicheng's eyes looking at Ling Dongwu with the same irrepressible eagerness and affection, that kind of look was completely the look that only a man would have if he was deeply infatuated with a woman.

Like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, Xiao Haotian involuntarily clenched his fists. Seeing Ling Dongwu talking to Mu Zicheng with a smile, the pinprick feeling in his heart became even stronger.

"Big brother, it's time for us to go on errands!" Zhou Ze said to Xiao Haotian who was looking downstairs in a daze.

Because the emperor may die at any time, the wind in Hengyang City has been very tight recently, and the search is very strict, but Xiao Hao is a master of heavenly arts, and several traitors of the Nanzhao Dynasty are familiar with him, with their cover, plus he speaks fluent Chinese, a little disguise, and he swaggers to walk in Hengyang City.

***

Song House

This is the residence of the current Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty of the Southern Zhao Kingdom.

Xiao Haotian and his entourage of five or six people walked out of a side alley, and as soon as they arrived at the door, the closed door immediately opened, and an old servant lowered his voice and respectfully: "Lord Wang, please come in......"

Xiao Haotian strode in, as if he was in his own home, through the courtyard, and came to the master's large living room. Before entering the living room, Prime Minister Song Cheng ushered in, "The prince has come all the way, hard work!" ”

"Prime Minister Song is polite, the prime minister has made suggestions for my northern desert for a while, helping the king to make contributions, this time it is to withdraw all the 150,000 defenders on the border, and the contribution is indispensable. The corners of Xiao Haotian's mouth twitched slightly, and his tone was cold and detached from the usual coldness.

Prime Minister Song didn't care, he had dealt with Xiao Haotian many times, and knew that King Zhennan had this cold and arrogant temper, "Thank you for your kindness, the next official will not disappoint the king." ”

"Come on, hurry up and prepare for the banquet!" A delicate, charming voice to the bone marrow commanded, this voice is standing next to Prime Minister Song, wearing a red skirt with a variety of styles Hu Amei hair, Hu Amei is Prime Minister Song's favorite concubine, it turned out to be the most beautiful singer on the bank of the Qin River, young and beautiful, charming and moving, the reason why he was able to open the gap of Prime Minister Song in the first place, Hu Amei contributed a lot.

The Dark Machine Gate sent capable people to bribe Hu Ami with a lot of money, and then taught Hu Ami to oppose the Song Prime Minister. Hu Ami was just looking at the money at first, but the wind blowing on the pillow in Prime Minister Song's ears was dispensable.

Once the people from the dark machine gate arranged for her to meet Xiao Haotian, his god-like handsome and resolute face, tall and straight figure, burly and heroic momentum, and his whole body was full of strength. Hu Amei was born as a courtesan in Qinglou, and she thought that she had read countless men, and she was used to seeing handsome and beautiful guys, but when she saw Xiao Haotian, she felt that the men she had seen in her life were all less than one-ten-thousandth of the men in front of her.

And the old and thin Song Chengxiang, a southern Sven man, can't be compared with Xiao Haotian, Hu Ami fell in love at first sight, and immediately began to work hard for the king of Beimo Town, just thinking that in this way he could have more dealings with Xiao Haotian and see him a few more times.

Three years ago, Hu Amei did not hesitate to risk her life to get Xiao Haotian a detailed map of Nanzhaoguo, when Xiao Haotian came to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, she took advantage of Prime Minister Song's absence, and waited very gently, Xiao Haotian finally had a spring breeze with her after drinking, that was dry firewood and fire, a long drought and a rain, the ultimate ecstasy, it was the most beautiful feast in her life, so that she was incorrigibly infatuated with Xiao Haotian who was lukewarm to her.

So much so that he has never forgotten it since then, and he has a kind of devotion to Xiao Haotian like a god, and he longs to have that passion again day and night!

Prime Minister Song raised his glass, "Xiaguan respects the prince!" ”

Hu Amei also raised her glass with a smile, and her eyes were flowing in the autumn waves, looking at Xiao Haotian like a soul.
