Chapter 120 The road is long and blocked, and it stops in Chu County

Conspiracy.

These two words swirled on the tip of Zhang Junlin's tongue.

"Set things right."

When Zhang Junlin saw the eldest sister's still confused expression, he knew that the eldest sister was not politically astute and didn't think about it at all.

"Eldest sister, my father is going back to Jinling."

"Really? He didn't want to build a vice capital in Jiazhou, so it was impossible to change the order overnight. ”

"Has he done less to change the day?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Junyuan finally figured out the methods used by the Western Chu Kingdom, and his face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but worry.

"Brother Huang, if my father comes back, he may replace you as the crown prince, or empty you."

"Although my father is not familiar with political affairs, he cares very much about the power in his hands."

If the father comes back at the moment when the envoy of Western Chu comes to negotiate peace, with his father's attitude towards Western Chu, I am afraid that he will not only return the captives, but even cede the land for compensation!

Because the father emperor did not want to offend the Western Chu State at all, let alone bear any danger to his life because of the people of Nanyue.

Zhang Junlin was already confident about this, but he didn't panic.

Because.

Even if the Western Chu State got in the way, he would definitely not give this opportunity to negotiate to the Dog Emperor.

Opposite.

Since the emperor of the Western Chu State handed over the knife, he took advantage of this opportunity to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Then the first thing to do is to let your people stop having illusions and prepare for battle!

"Eldest sister, before Xia Guozhang died, he said that he wanted to exchange a secret in the palace for his life, although he didn't say anything involved in this confidential matter, but judging from what he said, he should have wanted me to investigate what happened in the palace after my mother."

"Because I don't have any friendship with the palace or even the royal family, I have thought about it for a long time, and the secret that Xia Guozhang knows should be related to his mother."

After Zhang Junlin finished speaking, he glanced towards the dark shadow in the corner.

Nanfeng, who had just wanted to appear, shrank back.

"Secrets about the Queen Mother?"

Zhang Junyuan frowned tightly and lowered his head in deep thought.

Still don't have a clue.

The queen mother is frank, even if she is rumored to have an affair with Uncle Xiao, she just laughs it off.

Always put the words "those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid" on their lips.

"Eldest sister, you go and check."

Zhang Junlin deliberately put his fist against his lips and coughed a few times.

"Maybe it has something to do with my poisoning."

"What?!"

Zhang Junyuan's pupils shrank suddenly.

When Zhang Junlin saw her reaction, he knew that he was not wrong in the direction he guessed.

Xia Guozhang was about to die at that time, and he wanted to exchange his life with secrets, in addition to this incident being enough to shock him, it was more about diverting his hatred.

In addition to the eldest sister, the only person he values in this world is the queen mother of the immortal.

The eldest sister is still alive and well in Jinling, and if you work backwards, you can know that it is very likely that the death of the queen mother is very popular.

"I heard that the queen mother was deficient in qi and blood due to dystocia during childbirth, and she gave birth to me after nine deaths, but the queen mother is a ninth-order martial artist, and no matter how weak she is, she should make up for it after giving birth."

"Also, the original Empress Chen gave birth to an eldest son and a second son without telling her mother, and now she has become the eldest son and the second son, and the queen mother doesn't know it, doesn't the emperor who is a father know?"

Zhang Junlin felt that his hint was obvious enough.

He admitted that he had the element of guiding his eldest sister to deliberately investigate the past of the Dog Emperor.

But to deal with the Dog Emperor, the first thing to do is to let the eldest sister psychologically cut off the relationship with the Dog Emperor.

In fact, according to the pros and cons, since the dog emperor can hide it for three or five years, he can hide it for ten years or even longer.

There is no need to get rid of the queen mother when South Vietnam is just gaining a foothold.

Since the death of the queen mother, although Nanyue was not a vassal of Western Chu, it was similar.

As the emperor, Zhang Chengqian can wait until the queen mother completely loses its use value.

So......

"Brother Huang, you rest first, I have something to confirm."

Zhang Junyuan said hello and left in a hurry.

Zhang Junlin knew that she was going to check on her mother's past.

"Your Highness......"

The sound of the south wind wafted in the wind.

Zhang Junlin looked over with a smile, his eyes awe-inspiring.

"Nanfeng, you should know who your current master is, do you remember the conversation with the eldest sister and her current staff in the barracks?"

“……”

The south wind dodged into the darkness and said no more.

She didn't know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to fabricate Xia Guozhang's last words, but if she thought about it carefully, it didn't seem to be a fabrication.

What did Xia Guozhang say at that time?

It may be that she has a bad brain, and she may not have heard Xia Guozhang's voice.

"I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, and I could not bear the bright moon shining on the ditch."

Zhang Junlin looked at the crescent moon in the sky and sighed with a smile.

Nanfeng knew it when he saw the smile of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Someone is going to be unlucky.

……

"Drive!"

"Drive!"

From east to west, on the official road leading to Chu County.

Two fast horses galloped forward.

Finally, when the eastern sky turned fish-white, I saw the blue bricks on the castle in the distance.

"After a night of running, it's finally here."

Shi Lei breathed a sigh of relief, his eyebrows still furrowed.

Even flies that fall on it can be pinched.

The guards who followed behind Shi Lei looked at the post station in front of him and reminded him.

"Shi Gongzi, it's time to change horses."

Don't look at them, these fourth- and fifth-order martial artists can ride horses without eating or drinking, but the horses under this one can't bear it.

The horses of South Vietnam are no better than those of Western Chu, which are domesticated in large quantities and are very expensive.

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took over the government affairs of Jinling, the reimbursement system for officials and soldiers has changed.

Not to mention a horse, if you want to change a seat cushion, you need to go through the public account approval procedures.

Unnecessary waste will be counted in the year-end performance appraisal.

"Thanks for the reminder."

Shi Lei patted the horse's neck, and there were still more than 100 meters away from the post station, and he saw a group of people standing in front of him.

Their clothes are gorgeous, and they mostly use dyeing and weaving, which is obviously different from the local costumes in Jinling, which makes Shi Lei's eyes light up.

It's the people of Western Chu!

"Phew~"

Shi Lei didn't expect to meet the Xichu people here, looking at their rich or expensive clothes, he knew that it might be the envoy's party, and he was overjoyed, and hurriedly reined in his horse and jumped down.

"Lei Gongzi!"

Before they could reach the group, the group bowed respectfully.

"Lei Gongzi? Shi Gongzi, aren't you surnamed Shi? ”

The guards who followed Shi Lei asked puzzledly.

Shi Lei's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at the group of Xichu people in front of him who wanted to reveal his true identity in one word, and was vigilant.

"Who are you?"

"We are a delegation of envoys from Western Chu, and we have come to South Vietnam to discuss the return of prisoners."

This group of people does not hide their purpose in the slightest.

When Shi Lei heard the words "return the prisoners" instead of "exchange prisoners", his heart was half cold.

But he still wanted to fight for the future of South Vietnam and Western Chu, as well as his future.

"I have something urgent to start Your Majesty, there is a messenger among you who specializes in delivering letters, and I will send it to the national capital quickly!"

Shi Lei naturally knew that from Jinling to the capital of Western Chu, it was not a three-day effort to change His Majesty's decision back and forth.

He could only reach Chuxian and let this group of people send the letters of exhortation to the national capital.

As long as he did this, he asked this group of people to send people to chase after the messenger who sent a letter to the Emperor of Nanyue, and he would be able to stabilize Prince Zhang.
