The Mansion of the King of Xunche

Yuyuan, early in the morning.

Si Yanyin stood at the gate of the garden, looking at the sky in the distance and stunned.

Although the fox seems to be normal, leaving late and returning early, it is just a frequent message from the backyard carrier pigeons,

It was not difficult to sense from his increasingly solemn expression that a rainstorm was coming.

Finally, after dinner, the fox called her into the study.

told her an astonishing secret, and if it frightened her,

That was when she came out of the study, her legs were still limp.

At night, she lay on the couch with her eyes wide open, and her ears were full of her conversations with Zhan Xiaokong in the study.

"Yin'er, we have to act in advance."

"Why?"

She felt uneasy in her heart.

"Your father is critically ill, and Si Yanjin has escaped from Xi Yan and returned to Kunjiang."

Father is critically ill? Her heart tightened.

Brother Huang... Brother Huang escaped?

Yes, now Xun Che has also received a secret report, and some people have begun to play in the court to take the opportunity to attack Kun Jiang with Xi Yan.

"They, they're going to divide the ginger?"

"Yes, that's why we want to do it early."

"How do you act?"

"I never told you that I have always had a strong internal response in the court.

It is the national teacher who hears himself. ”

"You said that Master Wen has been answering you behind your back?"

Si Yanyin was taken aback.

"Hmm."

"Why did he choose you?"

She was puzzled, could it be that the national teacher and Zhan Xiaokong had already known each other?

"When the first emperor was alive, he once entered the palace to divinate the first emperor.

only knew that he was unrestrained by nature, and the first emperor did not keep him by his side,

And the last secret matter he handled for the first emperor during his lifetime was my life experience. ”

"Your background?"

"Actually, I am not from Prince Zhan, but the son of the first emperor."

The fox said lightly, as if he had already accepted the facts.

"What did you say?"

She was so startled that she almost knocked over the chair behind her.

"You are the son of the first emperor?"

"When the emperor is my imperial brother,

In terms of seniority, I should have called Prince Zhan an uncle, not my father. ”

"That prince was supposed to be the prince, why was he adopted by the prince?"

"When I was born, there was a vision from heaven that a plague broke out in a dozen villages outside the city.

Xunnan also had a flood, and a master once divined a hexagram for me.

said that I was destined to be alone, and the royal blood that was destined to be defeated was gone.

The first emperor couldn't bear to put me to death, so he summoned Wen Ren to enter the palace,

Although the hexagram that has been heard is the same as the previous masters, he has found a way to crack it.

That is to send me out of the palace and foster me elsewhere, but I can't bear someone else's surname.

Because although I am destined to be lonely, I am the reincarnation of Tianxi Xing, and after the age of eighteen I can resolve the catastrophe of fate.

Only then can we ensure the prosperity of the country for a hundred years.

It happened that Princess Zhan had a difficult birth at that time, and the child swallowed her breath just two days after she was born.

The first emperor listened to the words of Wen Ren, and found Prince Zhan to transfer me to the prince's mansion.

made the titular third son, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and over the years,

The princess has always suspected that I am not her own child, but the wild seed of the prince born out of wedlock,

was replaced by her child. ”

"So this is the reason why the princess has been snubbing the princess?"

"She guessed correctly, I complained before, but I just knew my life experience.

I can understand her, too. ”

"Why did Master Wen help you?"

He said that only if I sit on the world, can I protect the national fortune of the car.

If it is taken by Prince Zhan, the country will be ruined. ”

"The prince listens to the words of the national teacher like this?"

She had never been in contact with anyone else, so she was naturally very suspicious.

"At first, I didn't want to fight until you appeared."

"I ....."

Si Yanyin was incredible.

"Only by sitting on the world can you get rid of the puppet body,

And for the sake of Xunche's future, I should not give up this throne that should belong to me. ”

"How sure are you that it will succeed this time?"

She stepped forward.

"Seventy percent."

"The Great Prince is no longer a threat to you?"

"Prince Zhan no longer expects anything from him.

However, there is also Zhan Xiuxian's murderer! ”

The fox said word by word.

She remembered that just a few days ago, Zhan Taixian had been set up by the fox and Zhan Xiuxian.

was discovered by the prince that he actually stole his seal and opened several gambling houses and art shops in the imperial city.

And these are all places where business has been booming in recent years and has entertained many distinguished guests of Wang Sun.

If it weren't for the sudden occurrence of several murders a few days ago, the government ordered the closure of gambling houses and art shops,

Da Shizi took a group of people to the yamen to make trouble and asked to reopen the gambling house, only then was the prime minister learned,

It was found that these gambling houses and art shops were all in the name of Prince Zhan, and there were countless tax evasions.

The prince drove the eldest prince out of the other courtyard in a fit of anger, claiming that he would cut off the father-son relationship with him.

No matter how much the princess cried and made trouble, it would be useless.

The emperor is critically ill, and now is a good time for the prince to form a faction in the court.

Seeing that he was embarrassed and thrown at his doorstep, the ministers of the DPRK and China also talked about it, saying that he was selfless and fair and honest on the surface.

Behind the scenes, they form a party for personal gain, and use their power as a prestige, how can such a person govern the country well?

She sat up, thinking that her father was critically ill, and she didn't know what the situation was.

Is the royal brother all right on the run? All of this gave her a headache.

Seeing that the eldest son was in trouble, the second son was even more prosperous, and after this time, he trusted the fox even more.

He also revealed to him the whereabouts of several secret armies, and took him to a few trips in person.

It's just that no matter how arrogant he is, the fox only looks silently from the sidelines,

No matter how happy he was, he was indifferent.

Checkmate fish, what can you do with a few tosses?

If it weren't for the sudden change in Kun Jiang, he would have wanted to spend more time with him.

It's time to repay the life of the fifth brother.

On the second watch, Zhan Xiaokong changed into black clothes, blew out the candles in the study, and quietly came out.

In the palace courtyard, Mu Xuemian guarded Zhan Taixian, who had a high fever, all day.

She knew that Zhan Taixian could have such a miserable pain as he is now, and he also had his own contribution.

Zhan Xiuxian found someone outside the mansion to deceive Zhan Taixian, and instigated him to partner in opening a shop to make money.

And she took advantage of the drunkenness of the great prince to find out where the lists and bills of each shop were.

Zhan Xiuxian secretly sent someone to steal the prince's seal and blamed everything on Zhan Taiang.

From beginning to end, Zhan Taiqian didn't know, he just stupidly thought that he had a shop under his name, and he just waited for the business to grow bigger and increase his face in front of the prince.

A few days ago, I lied to her that she went to the military department, but in fact, she was just busy with the business of gambling houses and art workshops outside.

He may still not be able to figure out why this is the case, right?

Since they were kicked out of the palace, the Mu family had sent someone to talk once, and the princess had also come over three times and twice.

And Zhan Xiuxian alone did not see a figure.

She suddenly had the feeling that she had been deceived.

She is helping him do this, is she really helping herself?

She has changed from a princess to an abandoned daughter-in-law who no one cares about.

Looking at the son in front of him who has neither emotion nor status,

She seemed to suddenly understand something.

"Sister, I'll come to see Shizi...."

Xianhe stood at the door, holding a bowl of chicken soup in his hand.

"Man has not yet woken up..."

She said lightly and didn't push her out again.

"Can my sister come out for a while, my sister wants to take a step to speak."

Xianhe handed the chicken soup to the maid beside him, and the two came to the corner of the courtyard.

"What do you have to say?"

She still doesn't like Xianhe a little.

"Sister.. We are all deceived. ”

Xianhe took a step forward and whispered.

"What did you say?"

"Sister, I know that you have also been used by the second son."

"I... I don't understand what you're saying. ”

Mu Xuemian's eyes became flustered,

How did she know?

"My sister's former red spots were done by Xianhe."

"Is that you?"

Mu Xuemian once suspected Xianhe, but there was no evidence,

"Sister don't be in a hurry, it's my sister who is not fake, my sister is at fault first,

But I also obeyed the orders of the second son. ”

"Second son? Did the second son tell you to do it? ”

Mu Xuemian was so surprised that she almost tripped over herself.

"At that time, his sister had not yet listened to him, and he was afraid that his sister would ruin his good deeds.

When I told my sister that she was allergic to pollen, I did something in my sister's freshly washed clothes....

Later, the second son took advantage of this matter to fight with the eldest son, in exchange for his sister's trust,

He told me that as long as I deal with my sister secretly, I will have the opportunity to turn over and take the position of my sister's concubine in the future.

Later, I also took advantage of the drunkenness to set up the gambling house of my deceased son.

It was the second son who told me to hold more secrets of the prince in my hands,

can be used as a threat, otherwise, I won't even be able to make a concubine in the future. ”

"So, you've also been helping Zhan Xiuxian secretly spy on Da Shizi?"

Xianhe didn't answer, only nodded silently.

Mu Xuemian finally came to his senses, it turned out that he was a complete liar.

It's just that now, the matter has come to this, and they have no way back.

Go to the prince to expose his evil deeds, and no one will believe it.

"Sister, you say, will the second son find someone to kill us?"

Xianhe was very worried.

"No, what do we say, the prince just thinks that we want to exonerate the eldest prince.

Besides, Zhan Xiuxian has never taken us seriously, and he will not spend effort on us. ”

She looked at the sunset in the distance, as if she had seen the rest of her life, and she had no expectations.

Zhan Xiuxian, I was finally tricked by you.
