The second prince waited in the courtyard for a long time before Mo Xuanchen and Yun Jinchu came out of the house.

In the darkness of the night, only the light from the lantern hanging in front of the room fell on the two of them, and the second prince glanced at them up and down, but saw that the faces of the two were calm, and there was no wave in their eyes, as if nothing had happened in the room, and they couldn't see what they had just said inside.

The second prince stepped forward: "Is everything done?" ”

Mo Xuanchen said: "It's done, thank you for your help this time." ”

"You and I don't have to say thank you, it's just that the imperial aunt and grandmother ......"

The second prince glanced at the room, and was a little hesitant about how to place the one inside.

Mo Xuanchen seemed to know what he was thinking, and only said lightly: "The eldest princess has taken poisoned wine and her body is damaged, she is already old and frightened, I'm afraid she won't survive tonight." ”

The second prince blurted out: "You don't keep her? ”

Mo Xuanchen looked up at him.

The second prince sighed in his heart, and remembered the advice of the British Duke before, and hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean that, I just thought that you must have your own intentions to put so much effort to replace people, and I thought that you would keep her for other purposes......"

"Your Highness is too worried, I just want to find the eldest princess to solve some problems."

Mo Xuanchen's expression was gentle when he looked at him, "The eldest princess is too frightened, and now she is running out of oil, if Her Highness wants to send her on the last ride, she must go in quickly." ”

The second prince hurriedly shook his head: "No need, I have never been close to the imperial aunt and grandmother, so I don't need to see this last face to increase my sadness." ”

Joke.

This Mo Xuanchen looked like he was a little "tired" with the eldest princess, and since Mo Xuanchen didn't let him in to listen before, he obviously didn't want him to know what the eldest princess said, and he and the British duke finally brought Mo Xuanchen over, and he went in to send people off for the last time at this time, isn't he looking for trouble?

Sure enough, Mo Xuanchen's expression was slightly relaxed when he saw his knowledge, and his eyes softened.

When Xiahou Yu came out, he said to Mo Xuanchen: "Master, the eldest princess is gone." ”

Mo Xuanchen said "um": "The eldest princess's posthumous affairs will trouble Her Highness." ”

"Don't bother, I'll let people find a place to bury."

The second prince agreed without hesitation.

Not to mention what Mo Xuanchen said, even if he didn't say that the second prince would not hand over the body of the eldest princess to others, after all, the matter of transferring the death row prisoner tonight was done by Ran Qiusheng, if it was discovered that the eldest princess who should have been burned to death in the prison actually died somewhere else, Ran Qiusheng's waiter in the criminal department would not want to be it.

Mo Xuanchen glanced at the second prince: "Right now, the eldest prince and the fourth prince are in prison one after another, and Your Majesty has also issued an edict to let King Hui go to the south to summon my second uncle to Beijing." ”

"If Your Majesty wants to take advantage of the smuggling of the fourth prince and my second uncle to control the Zhennan Palace, then he will definitely publicize this matter, and His Royal Highness can discuss with the British Duke and take this opportunity to take this opportunity to confirm the previous impeachment of the corruption of the Mo Wen Mansion, and take advantage of the situation to take the Ministry of Industry into his own possession."

The second prince's eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll discuss with the British Duke when I go back." ”

"In addition, after the matter of the four princes sending people to Dingzhou is exposed, I am afraid that the previous charges of the eldest prince and the Marquis of Wenyuan Mansion will take the opportunity to clear a lot."

"Don't worry, I've arranged for someone to bite the big brother and not let go of ......"

"No, I mean, His Highness can take the opportunity to take the initiative to go to the Holy Front to intercede for the eldest prince."

The second prince was stunned when he heard this: "Take the initiative to intercede for him?" ”

Mo Xuanchen nodded and said: "If Your Majesty wants to pinch my second uncle, he will definitely confirm the charges of the four princes, but he will never allow two vicious and ruthless princes to appear in the court at the same time, which will damage the prestige of the royal family in the people, so the crime of digging the embankment will fall on the four princes together, he wants to protect the prince, and wants to save the face of the royal family. ”

"And Your Highness has never thought that Your Majesty has become more and more unpredictable as he gets older in recent years, do you think he would be willing to see the court and the central government dominate?"

The second prince's face changed.

Mo Xuanchen advised in a low voice: "Your Majesty has no intention of establishing a prince, and now is not the time for His Highness to take the lead, even if you can take this opportunity to cut off the eldest prince, but there are still five princes and six princes, as long as Your Majesty is willing, you can support a prince to balance the court situation at any time." ”

"Instead of making Your Majesty feel that you are too ambitious and vicious, it is better to take a step back and release the eldest prince with the boat."

"The eldest prince has lost his sacred heart, and the matter of Dingzhou has become a stain on him, even if he is released, there is no possibility of winning the throne, but His Royal Highness can win a benevolent name through his affairs, and he can even win the favor of His Majesty, killing two birds with one stone."

The second prince's eyes moved slightly, and he only felt that what Mo Xuanchen said made sense.

During this time, the eldest brother and the fourth brother had accidents one after another, and the Nanwang side of Nanjing Town had not yet been resolved.

If the father wants to establish a prince, it is fine, but everyone can see that the father has no intention of establishing a prince for the time being.

He didn't gain more than he gained at this time.

The second prince showed gratitude on his face: "Thanks to your reminder, otherwise I really have to make a big mistake this time, I will go back and explain that the person who was going to impeach the eldest brother before will be withdrawn, and when Ming'er is alone, he will enter the palace to intercede with his father." ”

Mo Xuanchen smiled: "It's not tomorrow, after the charges of the four princes are confirmed in two days, His Royal Highness will enter the palace again." ”

The second prince nodded hurriedly: "Okay, listen to you." ”

"One more thing." Mo Xuanchen said, "Previously, His Majesty intended to let His Highness go south for disaster relief, but now that there is something about the four princes, this trip may be a little dangerous, and His Highness will remember to let the British send someone to accompany him......

The second prince frowned: "Didn't my father let you go with you?" ”

Mo Xuanchen sighed lightly: "Your Majesty is afraid that he has changed his mind, my second uncle's matter is too implicated, whether he enters the capital or not, I have to stay here to balance the southern border, and I am afraid that I will not be able to leave the capital in a short time." ”

Seeing that the second prince's eyebrows sank, he sighed.

"Actually, I also want to go with His Highness, not only because I protect His Highness, but also because I want to take the opportunity to go to the south, I have been away there for too long, and the people left by my grandfather and father don't know how many can be used by me, if I don't see it with my own eyes, it will be difficult to feel at ease."

The second prince's eyebrows tightened.

How can this work?

He wooed Mo Xuanchen for his identity as the prince of Zhennan, if he regained the military power of Zhennan Wangfu and stood on his side, the emperor would be in his pocket.

The second prince turned around in his heart and said: "Don't worry about this, I will find a way to get my father to promise you to leave Beijing." ”

After Mo Xuanchen said a few more words to the second prince, he saw that the night was dark, so he took Yun Jinchu to say goodbye and leave.

After they left, the second prince led people into the house, looked at the eldest princess Rongxian, who was already out of breath, and ordered her body to be wrapped up and taken away.

Mo Xuanchen and Yun Jinchu stood in the shadow around the corner and watched them leave, and the small courtyard returned to its original tranquility.

The night breeze blew through the willow trees not far away, and the treetops swayed in the wind.

Yun Jinchu looked sideways at Mo Xuanchen beside him, and saw that his thin lips were pursed, and his face lost the gentleness and calmness when he was playing with the second prince.

His phoenix eyes were covered with frost, and his whole body was full of unconcealable anger, and the whole person seemed to have become a bloodthirsty beast at any time, and even his pupils were faintly red.

Yun Jinchu sighed lowly, and reached out to cover the back of his bloody hand: "Go back." ”
