Because of the reminder of the third princess, even if Helian Rong has not yet said anything about the relationship, Princess An Cheng has already been mentally prepared, and at this time, seeing that the other party showed a friendly smile at her, she returned the salute quietly, "The fifth prince is polite."

At the moment, the envoy Huo Jiao's life is on the horizon, and it is really not the time to speak, Helian Rong can only give up this opportunity to talk and look away.

Li Qingyi and Princess An Cheng glanced at each other, tacitly.

The fire that had burned half of the sky was finally extinguished, and the entire Yunjing Terrace was burned in half, with broken roofs and debris everywhere, and a pungent stench of burning.

The Imperial Doctor was reporting Huo Jiao's injuries, and when he saw that look, he knew that Huo Jiao would definitely not survive.

The death of the envoy was not trivial, Helian Rong said that he wanted to take a leave of absence and return to Chongnan as soon as possible, so he took the dying Huo Jiao back to the post house.

The emperor and the queen were busy dealing with the chaos in the previous dynasty and the harem, and Princess An Cheng took the third princess and Li Qingyi back to the Linhua Palace to discuss countermeasures.

The three of them entered the palace and retreated, and the third princess asked Li Qingyi, "What do you think of this matter?"

Li Qingyi muttered, "I don't know if Princess Fangcai has noticed that Helian Rong looked a little strange when she saw Princess An Cheng."

The third princess nodded, "It's a little indescribable, that look, just like ......."

She struggled to weigh her words, but she didn't know how to express them more accurately.

Li Qingyi said, "It's like a person who was about to destroy an object, but suddenly found that this thing is a treasure......

Hearing this, the third princess agreed, "That's right, that's how it feels."

She looked at An Cheng, "Imperial sister, it seems that our previous guess was not wrong, Chongnan has long known that Dajing will not agree to the matter of peace, and proposing to marry Princess Yan is just a pretense, and even wants to use your life to provoke disputes between the two countries."

Hearing this, Princess An Cheng said, "Since they have made their plans, wouldn't today's fire be too much, and it might disrupt their plans."

The third princess said, "I also think it's strange, how could the apse catch fire for no reason, and also, Huo Jiao has been following Helian Rong all the time, why did he run to the apse again?"

Li Qingyi's eyes reflected the candle flame burning in the hall, and he muttered, "Therefore, some people are more eager than Chongnan, and they can't even wait for the plan to make peace, and they can't wait for Dajing to start a war with Chongnan."

The plan of harmony must have been properly discussed by Mu Rencheng and the female national teacher, but Mu Guifei and the four princes did not seem to approve of it, or rather, they had already taken precautions against Mu Rencheng and realized that he had his own intention of being the emperor, so they secretly disrupted their plans, and in addition, they could achieve their goals faster.

The third princess pondered for a long time and said, "Could it be Concubine Mu and the fourth emperor brother......

An Cheng didn't speak, but she obviously thought the same thing.

They didn't know the background of the four princes, and they only guessed that the four princes wanted to take advantage of Chongnan's war with Dajing to wait for an opportunity to seize the throne.

Li Qingyi also couldn't reveal the matter of the four princes and Mu Rencheng and the female national teacher to them, so he changed his perspective and said to the two, "I wonder if the two princesses have heard of the female national teacher in Chongnan?"

The two nodded.

"It is said that this female national teacher is almost worshiped as a god by the people of Chongnan, and she has been operating in the court for more than ten years, winning people's hearts, forming a party for personal gain, and is quite powerful."

After the third princess finished speaking, An Cheng also added: "I also heard the queen mother say that Queen Chongnan has no right to speak at all, and this female national teacher can be called above ten thousand people under one person. Although Helian Rong, the fifth prince of Chongnan, is the queen's concubine, the matter of harmony may not be assigned by his father and queen mother, maybe it is the meaning of this female national teacher."

Li Qingyi chuckled: "Could it be that Empress Chongnan, together with the fifth prince Helian Rong, is so willing to obey the assignment of a divine stick?"

Princess An Cheng said without hesitation, "It must be unwilling."

The third princess also said: "The terrain of Dajing extends in all directions, the mountains and rivers of the north and the south are close to each other, easy to defend and difficult to attack and rich in products, such a dynasty with excellent terrain, Chongnan has coveted it for a long time, but it is a pity that the strength is not enough, in the past ten years, because of the female national teacher, Chongnan's national strength has grown rapidly, and even has a tendency to catch up with and surpass our Dajing, wild

The heart also flourished. In other words, it was the female national teacher who ignited Chongnan's ambitions, but for the children of the royal family, it may not be a good thing, everything is to make a wedding dress for the female national teacher."

Li Qingyi nodded, the third princess was really very transparent, "Then the two princesses feel that Helian Rong, as the concubine of the royal family of a country, was pushed out to make peace, can there be resentment in their hearts, do you want to overthrow the regime of the female national teacher?"

In other words, the prince who is expected to ascend to the throne often has to increase his strength through his in-laws, who wants to take the princess of another country, and the children who are born do not even have the right to inherit?

Princess An Cheng said: "Helian Rong is afraid that he hated the female national teacher behind his back, no wonder Huo Jiao was burned so badly, but his reaction was very indifferent, that Huo Jiao must be the female national teacher."

Li Qingyi praised, "Her Royal Highness the princess is really smart."

An Cheng looked up at her, "If we can turn against Helian Rong......

The three of them looked at each other.

The third princess hesitated, "Helian Rong must have a very strong defense, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win his trust."

An Cheng said, "Maybe...... He wouldn't be so defensive against me?"

The third princess frowned when she heard this, "What are you going to do?"

Princess An Cheng looked at Li Qingyi.

Li Qingyi actually meant this, but she didn't know if An Cheng was willing or not, if she forced it, Helian Rong would definitely be able to see the flaws.

She said, "Chongnan proposed to make peace, but the emperor would not allow it. Helian Rong should take the initiative to approach the princess, use the princess as a breakthrough, and use all methods to impress the princess, so why can't the princess use the same method to oppose Helian Rong?"

Princess An Cheng nodded slowly when she heard this, "That's what I mean, but I don't have a clue how to do it......

Li Qingyi smiled, "The princess doesn't need to do anything, just rely on her own heart, and then guide Helian Rong at the right time."

Princess An Cheng let out a soft "um", "I'll try."

Li Qingyi said, "But other than that, I'm a little worried about the princess's ......."

"Worried about what? Worried I'm going to get caught up?"

The third princess also said, "Imperial sister, you must always remember your identity, and don't really give birth to Helian Rong."

Princess An Cheng shook her head, "Don't worry, I am reluctant to leave my father and queen mother. Besides, I am the princess of Dajing, and if I want to sacrifice even my life for the subjects of the world, if I really have affection for Helian Rong, so I am coerced by Chongnan's calculations, then I would rather die."

Li Qingyi and the third princess were stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect Princess An Cheng to be playful and willful on weekdays, but she had such a deep understanding in her bones.

Li Qingyi said: "However, the princess still explained this matter to the emperor and Niangniang in advance, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

"But in that case, my father and queen mother may prevent me from doing this."

Li Qingyi still insisted, "The safety of the princess comes first, and when necessary, the emperor may be able to give the princess some help."
