is the most ruthless imperial family, that's probably it.

Shen Che's intention in saying this was not really for Jiang Yi, but he didn't want Jiang Yi to become a burden to him, and more importantly, he had to guard against what Jiang Yi would do if he fell into the hands of the Empress Dowager Qin.

If he left Jiang Yi behind and left alone, Jiang Yi would definitely be disheartened, and it was very likely that he would hate him, and then betray him, take refuge in the Empress Dowager Qin, and tell him all about it. In this way, he is equivalent to showing all his hole cards in front of the Empress Dowager Qin.

But with these words as a foundation, Jiang Yi will firmly believe that he left her alone in the capital because he was afraid of affecting her, and he was afraid that Empress Dowager Qin's killer would hurt her. In this way, Jiang Yi still has a glimmer of hope in his heart, even if he falls into the hands of the Empress Dowager Qin, he will not break the jar.

Shen Che, as a husband, is undoubtedly a failure, he has lost too many things and used too many people for his own hegemony and to help the Shen family, whether it is Lu Yingquan or Jiang Yi, they are just stepping stones on his way to becoming a king.

But as an emperor, he was the most successful. He is ruthless and willing to be affectionate, he can make the most beneficial choice for himself in the most difficult predicament, even if this choice is at the expense of Jiang Yi.

This is the difference between him and Shen Ze.

Shen Ze has a ruthless mother who is good at scheming, but he has the softest and most benevolent heart, he can't be cold-blooded and ruthless, so he chose to give up this position to Shen Che.

On the contrary, Shen Che always knows what he wants, and on his way forward, all people and things must make way for him.

The night was dark, Shen Che comforted Jiang Yi and promised her a very bright future. In the blueprint he constructed, she is his only queen, and when his great cause is completed, she will be the queen, his only wife.

"Your Highness, you must come back to pick me up, no matter what happens, I will wait for Your Highness. Jiang Yi nestled in Shen Che's arms, turning her body into a pool of soft spring water, as if she wanted to melt the man beside her.

Sensing her emotion, Shen Che sighed slightly, turned around and picked her up horizontally, put her on the bed, gently picked up her placket with his fingers, and waved his big hand, the curtain on the bed fell gently, the hibiscus tent was warm, and the room was beautiful.

If this is the only way to appease her restless heart, then even if he doesn't want to, what's the matter?

It should be that before he left, the last thought he left her with, whether she can successfully hide in the capital, or will eventually fall into the hands of the Queen Mother, at least let her have such a warm place in this strange place, in the cold and lonely life in the future, which is worth cherishing.

The sky was getting brighter, and there was gradually the sound of walking footsteps in the courtyard, Jiang Yi opened his eyes, looked at the man lying next to him, couldn't help blushing, and then got up and quickly got dressed.

Shen Che also had his own plan, so he didn't hesitate, got up and quickly tidied himself up, and after washing up, he ordered Yuanbao to do something.

And he himself also went to the courtyard of the Jade King.

A battle between hunters and prey. And Empress Dowager Qin and Shen Che don't know who is the hunter, who is the prey, and who is in whose calculations.

Jiang Yi changed into a new set of clothes under the service of the finch, and used some pearl powder to cover the marks left on her neck last night, and after cleaning up, she left the courtyard with the finch as usual and took the carriage to the palace.

When the guards at the gate of the palace saw Jiang Yi, they let her in without much questioning, after all, in the past few days, this Mrs. Jiang has to go to the palace every day to ask the queen mother for peace, and she always stays in the palace until the evening before coming out, so the guards are already very familiar.

Jiang Yi was very apprehensive at this time, but she tried her best to suppress the panic, pretending to be calm on the surface, and went to the Hehuan Hall as if nothing had happened.

Everything was as usual, still the bamboo branch came out to greet her, and then led her in to accompany the queen to breakfast.

But Jiang Yi always remembered Shen Che's words, and immediately asked the queen mother to resign after entering the palace, thinking of this, she said: "Queen mother, the concubine entered the palace today to confess to you in person. I'm afraid the concubine won't be able to chat with the queen today. ”

"Why?" Rong Ya was a little puzzled, "Is it because the palace is not well entertained?"

"No, no, no, the mother misunderstood. In fact, it was His Highness that he had drunk too much recently, and his body was a little uncomfortable. The concubine was ordered by the Empress Dowager Jiang to follow His Royal Highness to the capital, just to take good care of His Highness. But His Royal Highness is in poor health now, and if the concubines can't serve the left and right, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain when they go back. Jiang Yi made an excuse and said so.

She also remembered that Shen Che said that when she resigned, she must not reveal their intention to leave the capital, lest the wall have ears and reach the ears of the Empress Dowager Qin. So she could only say that Shen Che was in poor health and wanted to use this as an excuse to leave the palace.

Rong Ya was really a soft-hearted person, and when she heard that Shen Che was sick, she hurriedly asked if it mattered, and then said: "Since you want to take care of King Yi, it is not good for this palace to force you to stay." But you rushed over so early, you must not have had breakfast yet, why don't you accompany the palace to finish breakfast, and the palace will send someone to see you off?"

Jiang Yi thought about it, she knew that it would definitely take time for Shen Che to arrange outside, so in order to let the Empress Dowager Qin not suspect it, and buy Shen Che more time, it was not impossible for her to stay in the palace for a while.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yi nodded: "The queen is gracious, and the concubines are better than obeying their fate." ”

Just when Jiang Yi was accompanying Rong Ya to breakfast, Shen Che was also eating at the Jade King's place and began to implement his plan.

"Sixth brother, it's been so many days in the capital, why are you still not getting better with your symptoms of not adapting to the water and soil?" Shen Che looked at the pale face of the Jade King Shen Hu, and couldn't help asking.

Jade King Shen Hu, when he was in his mother's womb, due to a serious illness in his mother's body, Shen Hu was born with very weak bones, and the perennial medicine did not leave his body, if it was not for the birthday of the Empress Dowager Qin this time, he would not have traveled thousands of miles to the capital.

"It is said that it is not suitable for water and soil, but in fact, it is an old problem, and it is the same everywhere. The Jade King shook his head with a wry smile, "I am not a good fortune, I am not as strong as you as the seventh brother." ”

"Sixth brother said with a smile, I heard that there is an old doctor surnamed Xue in the western suburbs of the capital, who has a very good set of treatment for old diseases, do you want to go and see it?" Shen Che asked, but he had another idea in his heart.

"No, I've been here for more than 20 years, and I haven't invited any miracle doctors? Shen Hu shook his head, not wanting to do more.

But Shen Che had his own plan, how could he give up so easily? So he said: "Sixth brother is not in good health, it is not suitable to travel and travel, or I will run for the sixth brother, if this Xue Divine Doctor is really capable, it will also be a great good thing for the sixth brother." Among all the brothers, the two of us are the closest in age, which can be regarded as fate. In the past, they had been on one side, and they didn't have much time to contact, but now they can finally do something for the sixth brother, and ask the sixth brother not to refuse the minister's heart. ”

Shen Hu listened to Shen Che's words, smiled a little helplessly, and said: "You, you are still as stubborn as when you were a child, and you have to do what you think." Since you have said so, if I, who is an elder brother, do not agree, wouldn't it seem that I am too ungraceful? ”

Shen Che saw that Shen Hu agreed, so he arched his hand and said, "Sixth brother, don't worry, Xiao Qi will definitely invite this Xue Divine Doctor back for you." ”

The two brothers chatted while having breakfast, and they seemed to have a deep relationship. But both of them knew in their hearts that they were both vassal kings and guarded their fiefdoms, and if they didn't have two brushes, no one would be able to get to where they are today.

The calm in front of me is only temporary.

Soon, Shen Che finished his breakfast and left the courtyard and headed towards the west of the city. As he expected, when he left the courtyard, a few people followed him sneakily, not far or close, so as not to disturb him, but not to lose him.

But the footsteps of these people were too heavy, and Shen Che could hear them as long as he held his breath and focused a little. There are three people who follow him, and they all know some fist and foot kung fu, but the martial arts don't seem to be high.

It seems that Empress Dowager Qin has not planned to completely tear her face with him, otherwise she would not have sent such a few wastes to follow him. Or maybe there are more intelligent people in the shadows, but he just doesn't find it.

When Shen Che arrived at the gate of the West City, he was stopped, and the guards guarding the city knew him, but he still routinely interrogated: "His Royal Highness King Yi, the Queen Mother has ordered that no matter where the princes go, they must ask the Queen Mother for instructions, otherwise they must not go out of the city without permission." ”

"This king didn't want to go out of the city without permission, isn't this going out of the city openly?" Shen Che said, "Do you know that there is a divine doctor surnamed Xue in the western suburbs?"

The guards looked at each other, and then replied, "Divine Doctor Xue's great name, the lowly officials have also heard of it. ”

"That's right, if the king goes out of the city and doesn't do anything else, he will find Doctor Xue. Shen Che said, "You also know that the sixth brother of this king, that is, His Royal Highness the Jade King, he has been weak and sick since he was a child, and this time he came to the capital to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother, but because of the water and soil, he has been uncomfortable. Didn't this king think about finding that Divine Doctor Xue to take a look for the sixth brother?"

"However, without the instructions of the Queen Mother, you can't be let out of the city. "The guard at the door was very steadfast and dutiful.

Shen Che was helpless, but he couldn't be in a hurry, so he had to grind hard with this guard: "In this way, you can send a few people out of the city with this king to protect this king, isn't it?"

"This ......" The guard was obviously hesitant, still unable to make up his mind.

But at this time, a slightly resolute voice sounded behind Shen Che: "Since His Royal Highness King Yi wants to leave the city, let him go out of the city." The meaning of the Queen Mother is that she is afraid that His Royal Highness King Yi will encounter danger outside the city, so you will follow His Royal Highness to find Doctor Xue, and come back immediately after finding it, and be sure to follow His Highness to protect His Highness's safety. ”

"Yes, General Qin. When the guards heard this man's words, they immediately surrendered their hands.

The three words General Qin made Shen Che's body stiffen slightly, he knew that there was only one person who could be called General Qin in the capital, and who had so much power - Qin Yuankai.
