219: Your Highness, have you really thought about it? (2nd Update)
After explaining what happened on the Apocalypse Star clearly, Xiao Zhiyun handed over Huo Siyi's three abyssal clans to the people of the Security Bureau, and then went directly out of the palace and returned to his prince's mansion.
He has done everything he should do, and the rest of the things are not under his control, as for the whole empire to investigate the abyss clan, naturally the emperor should have a headache.
Xiao Zhiyun had nothing to do, and when the people in the palace were busy, he was leisurely, and even used the excuse that he had just returned from the Apocalypse Star and needed to rest, so he took a week's vacation in one go, and he didn't even have to go to the daily court meeting.
On the second day of Xiao Zhiyun's vacation, Lu Zhan swaggered to the prince's mansion, and after asking the housekeeper, Lu Zhan went straight to the artificial lake.
"You're laid back."
From afar, Lu Zhan saw Xiao Zhiyun sitting alone by the lake fishing.
Hearing his voice, Xiao Zhiyun glanced at him lazily.
After Lu Zhan approached, he first glanced at the bucket at his feet, and after seeing that there were already several fish inside, he sat down on the stool next to Xiao Zhiyun with a big grin, and said: "You said at the court meeting that you would conduct a thorough investigation of the whole empire and turn everyone on your back, but you hid in the mansion to fish without incident. Your Highness, won't your conscience hurt? ”
Xiao Zhiyun stared at the fishing rod and said without raising his eyes: "Why do I feel a pain in conscience? Did I say anything when I was busy with the Apocalypse? ”
Lu Zhan was speechless and looked at him strangely, "Your Highness, you really make me marvel at the thickness of your face every once in a while." ”
Xiao Zhiyun laughed.
Lu Zhan said with a straight face: "Do you know who His Majesty the Emperor has entrusted with the task of inspecting and investigating the entire empire?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun said lightly: "Xiao Xingze." ”
Lu Zhan snorted, his expression that had just become serious changed again, he looked at Xiao Zhiyun with wide eyes, and said incredulously: "How do you know?" This appointment has not yet been officially issued, and I have only just used my connections in the palace to find out. ”
Xiao Zhiyun sneered: "Do you still need to investigate?" You can guess with your brain. ”
Lu Zhan nodded first, then reacted, and said dissatisfiedly: "Your Highness, are you connotating that I have no brains?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun finally raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and said with a smile: "I didn't mean that, but if you have to think like this, I won't stop you." ”
Land Warfare: "........."
He owes so much, how did he find his daughter-in-law?
Oh yes, he doesn't have to look for it, his daughter-in-law has been set since she was a child.
After Lu Zhan said a few words in his heart, he couldn't help but ask, "How did you guess that it was the second prince?" And why guess it's him? ”
Xiao Zhiyun first glanced at him with the eyes of a fool, and Lu Zhan was almost blown up by his glance, but just when he was about to blow up, he heard Xiao Zhiyun say casually: "Xiao Xingze just suffered a loss because of the queen's matter, although the emperor favored the queen and suppressed the matter, but he still wronged Xiao Xingze." What's more, the emperor also has high hopes for Xiao Xingze's son, he has just two sons, Xiao Xingyang is a dou who can't be supported at all, and even obeys the queen's words, the emperor did not regard Xiao Xingyang as an heir from the beginning. ”
Lu Zhan frowned.
Xiao Zhiyun continued slowly: "Although this inspection of the whole empire is very time-consuming and laborious, this is also an opportunity for Xiao Xingze to be recognized by the people, isn't it obvious that the emperor appointed this matter to Xiao Xingze, and this inspection is not only an opportunity to win over the people, but also an opportunity for Xiao Xingze to contact the royal legion in advance, and after this inspection is over, the emperor will be able to have a reason to let Xiao Xingze enter the court meeting openly." ”
Lu Zhan's eyebrows tightened, "Since you know, why don't you stop it?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and said with a smile: "Why should I stop it?" I had already guessed that this task would fall on Xiao Xingze's head when I proposed an investigation of the whole empire, this was originally a good thing for me, what should I stop it for. ”
Lu Zhan looked at him in shock, what do you mean that it was good a long time ago?
"So......." Lu Zhan stumbled and said, "You deliberately gave Xiao Xingze a rod to the Imperial Capital Star?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun smiled and said nothing.
Lu Zhan took a breath and couldn't help but ask, "Why did you give him to the Imperial Capital Star?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun's eyes were deep, and there seemed to be a dark light flashing in the depths of his eyes.
He said indifferently: "Not only did I give Xiao Xingze to the Imperial Capital Star, but at the same time, half of the troops of the Royal Legion left the Imperial Capital Star with him. ”
Lu Zhan's pupils shrank, and he gasped again, "You ........"
He wanted to ask what you wanted to do, but when the words came to his lips, Lu Zhan felt as if he didn't need to ask.
However, Lu Zhan didn't ask, but Xiao Zhiyun said it himself, "I'm annoyed, so I don't plan to play slowly with them." After saying this, Xiao Zhiyun didn't know what he thought, the indifference on his face suddenly receded, and then he became gentle, and even his voice had a gentle smile.
Xiao Zhiyun: "And June is my child's birthday, I want to give her a birthday gift before her birthday." ”
Lu Zhan's whole person shuddered for a moment, and looked at Xiao Zhiyun's gaze as if he was looking at some monster.
If he wasn't mistaken, what His Highness wanted to give to the future crown princess for her birthday was....... The entire Xingluo Empire?!!
That's a lot of money!
However, although Lu Zhan was shocked by Xiao Zhiyun's generosity, after he made up his mind, he still said solemnly: "Your Highness, have you really thought about it?" ”
Xiao Zhiyun smiled faintly: "I've been thinking about it for more than ten years." ”
Lu Zhan: "Do my father know about your decision?" ”
"I didn't tell my uncle." Xiao Zhiyun smiled lightly: "I don't need the Blue Wolf Army to make any moves, I didn't even say anything from Long Dashuai's side." ”
Lu Zhan looked at him in astonishment, and Xiao Zhiyun turned his head sideways and said to him: "I only informed Wei Chuyang, I want Xing Cejun to return to the Imperial Capital Star in a dignified manner." ”
Lu Zhan frowned: "Only the Xingce Army? ”
"That's enough." Xiao Zhiyun looked at the distant sky and said with a smile: "The Royal Legion has been defending the Imperial Capital Star for too long, they have long been wiped out by the prosperity and peace of the Imperial Capital Star, even if I only have the Star Ce Army, it is enough to take the Imperial Capital Star." ”
"What about after you take it?" Lu Zhan asked in a deep voice: "Xiao Xingze has taken away half of the strength of the Royal Legion, if something happens to the Imperial Capital Star, he can bring his troops back at any time." ”
"He can't come back." Xiao Zhiyun said lightly: "Since I let him out, I haven't thought about letting him come back alive." I was attacked in the Villalvi Star Domain, and they haven't given an explanation so far, so I don't need to explain anything, just repeat what happened to me in front of Xiao Xingze. ”
Land Warfare: ".........."
Terrestrial: "What about the other legions?" ”
"They can't come." Xiao Zhiyun said calmly: "The defense system of the Imperial Capital Star will be fully opened, no one will be able to come in, and no one will be able to go out." ”
Lu Zhan slowly exhaled a breath and said, "What about the people on the Imperial Capital Star?" You are so big, the outside speech is not good, after all, he is the emperor. ”
"You want to say that I will be charged with treason?" Xiao Zhiyun sneered: "I was originally going to this, and I rebelled?" I'm Xingluo orthodox, but I'm just setting things right. What is public opinion? After I make public the buried truths, public opinion will be a sharp blade in my hands. ”
Seeing that he seemed to be really ready, Lu Zhan let out a long breath and said helplessly: "Although I still think your move is a bit crazy, but ........ On that day, I will be standing by your side, and I want to see you ascend to the position where you belong. ”
Xiao Zhiyun smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and patted Lu Zhan's shoulder, and said as if promised: "Don't worry, you will see it with your own eyes." ”
Lu Zhan laughed, but he was wondering whether he should remind his father, who was still on the Blue Wolf Star, that the Blue Wolf Army could not move, but it was still necessary to be prepared, in case of an accident in any part of His Highness's plan, the Blue Wolf Army was still close to the Imperial Capital Star and could come over to support at any time.
Xiao Zhiyun didn't know what Lu Zhan was still thinking about in his heart, the fishing rod in his hand moved, and he pulled it hard, and another fish was hooked.
After throwing the newly hooked fish into the bucket, Xiao Zhiyun was not ready to continue fishing, he raised his hand to look at the time, put away the fishing rod and picked up the bucket containing the fish, got up and said to Lu Zhan: "I caught a lot of fish today, so you can stay for dinner." ”
Lu Zhan raised his hand and rubbed his face vigorously with both hands, then got up and said with a smile: "That's a good feeling, this is a fish caught by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself, I need to eat more." ”
