On the day that he was grounded by the emperor's order, the prince's mansion was guarded by the imperial guards, and it stands to reason that Zhao Chengji could not come to Nangong Yue.

However, what everyone doesn't know is that Zhao Chengji has been privately raising a stand-in that is very similar to him.

At the moment of being grounded, Zhao Chengji and the stand-in changed their clothes, the stand-in wore his prince's court clothes, and he wore the stand-in's guard uniform, and left the East Palace in a grand manner.

This Lord Xu is his eyeliner in the court.

No one paid attention to what this Lord Xu was doing in private, even if he walked towards this deep alley in a sedan chair, everyone thought he was here to find a good outer room or something.

No one thought that he had come to see the prince.

After explaining everything in the DPRK and China, Lord Xu stopped talking.

"Lord Xu, you really support Prince Yuben, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it directly!" Zhao Chengji saw his thoughts.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, will this Princess Nianyun make such a fuss against you?"

Zhao Chengji shook his head, "And by her, I can be innocent." ”

Actually, he had already seen what Su Nianyun was going to do, but Lord Xu didn't know.

At best, he was just a little minion who was secretly running errands for him, responsible for reporting him on the progress of the court's major affairs, and he didn't need to let him know more about it.

Including whether Zhao Chengji is really splitting with Xiao Changfeng or a fake split, Lord Xu also doesn't know.

"Okay, I know the affairs of the court, you can rest assured that you can go back to supervise it, everything has me, you don't have to worry."

Lord Xu nodded, and then said goodbye to Zhao Chengji and left.

When he was about to go out, he saw Nangong Yue again, and then saluted Nangong Yue respectfully again.

Lord Xu said in his heart, the world said that the prince did not rely on it, and said that without Xiao Changfeng, there would be only one Xiao Hu left alone.

In fact, they didn't know that Nangong Shangshu was His Royal Highness the Prince's biggest reliance.

Nangong Shangshu, but the military department Shangshu, has an unusual status in the court, and his daughter is the best candidate to be the crown princess, but unfortunately, the former prince was too stupid, and he mistakenly took the concubine as a treasure and kicked out the concubine as a grass.

This is good, let the eighteen princes pick up the leak.

Lord Xu was also by chance to discover the secret of the prince and Nangong Mansion.

At that time, Zhao Chengji had just become the crown prince, and he had no power in the court, so he wanted to cling to the prince.

But if he rushes up so directly, it will be too utilitarian, so he can only choose a roundabout way, that is, to create a chance encounter and let himself enter the prince's field of vision.

Although his idea is good, how could the whereabouts of the crown prince be casually encountered by an inconspicuous petty official?

So he thought about finding out the prince's course of action first, and then slowly plotting to create a chance encounter.

Especially since the prince has a lot of guards around him, he doesn't dare to follow too closely, sometimes he will lose the prince's whereabouts if he follows too far.

It wasn't until he thoroughly understood the prince's whereabouts that it was two months later.

However, the hard work paid off, and he finally discovered some differences, that is, although the prince's daily actions are changeable, there is one thing that remains the same, that is, the house in this deep alley.

As shrewd as Lord Xu, he immediately realized that the people living in this mansion might be the key.

So he took advantage of the prince's absence to come quietly again, and he didn't dare to enter the door to disturb people, so he could only squat.

After he squatted for a day, he finally found that the person inside came out, and the person who was held by the stars of the little girl, he also happened to know, it was the former crown princess Nangong Yue.

He followed Nangong Yue across the alley and watched her walk into the back door of Nangong Mansion.

At this point, he was stunned to find that this place was so close to Nangong Mansion.

Just one gate facing south of the street and one gate facing north of the street, people who are not familiar with the surrounding dwellings can easily be misled that these are two very far away.

Lord Xu suddenly understood that the new prince and the Nangong family were allied.

This discovery made Lord Xu more sure that his idea was right, with the military department behind him, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not easily lose on the way to the throne.

Especially after the prince was grounded this time and had a bad relationship with Xiao Xiaohou, many officials who originally obeyed the prince's orders turned to the six princes, but he was the only one who has always been firm in his original intention and has always been saddled up here by the prince.

As a result, Zhao Chengji also entrusted more tasks to this loyal courtier.

Leaving the deep alley, Lord Xu came to the tea stall to find his palanquin driver and palanquin, and squeaked all the way back to his home.

At night, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, he knew that the prince was still hiding too many things from him, and he was not qualified to know those things.

But for the relationship between Zhao Chengji and Xiao Changfeng, he always vaguely felt that the two could not be cut off so easily.

As for why he thinks so, of course, it is because the two of them were the main and deputy generals who fought together in Mobei.

Although Lord Xu is a civil official, he also knows a little more about military attachés.

Especially the emotions that he can experience after experiencing life and death together on the battlefield, he can especially understand it.

So his instinct was that the two would not fight each other.

Princess Nianyun is too, he never believes that the person in the outside world legend is Princess Nianyun herself.

These three people are all people who have experienced the war together in Mobei, and when the emperor rewarded Princess Nianyun for winning glory for the country and Mobei, he still listened to it with enthusiasm.

Regarding those nonsense words in Beijing, he is more certain that the six princes are a means to divide the crown prince and Xiao Xiaohou.

This is also another reason for him to stay by the prince's side even more firmly, he always feels that the prince is superior, and the prince and Xiao Xiaohou are very likely to use the plan.

The more Lord Xu thought about it, the more excited he became, so much so that he didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night, until the sky was bright and he went to the court, and he cleaned up and went to the court with two huge black circles under his eyes.

The adults who were scolded by him yesterday were shocked when they saw such an adult Xu today.

Then everyone laughed at him, "What, Lord Xu, you scared us yesterday, and you can't sleep when you go home, right?" ”

"Anyway, today should be conveyed by the six princes, the emperor finally has the will of Princess Nianyun and Xiao Xiaohou to marry, why do you seem to be more worried?"

"What am I worried about?" Xu Dadao, "Don't talk nonsense, I just have business at hand that can't be solved!" ”

Everyone ridiculed Lord Xu and avenged yesterday's revenge, and then they walked into the hall in a good mood.

Their wise and martial emperor still did not come forward, and as usual, the six princes were presiding over the government.

The biggest difference between him today and the past is that he has two more holy decrees in his hands.

"What's going on?" Some ministers said, "I haven't heard what kind of illness the emperor has, why didn't he come to the court?" ”

"Alas, who knows, the affairs of the court and the central government in the past two days have been very important, and the emperor has not come forward to solve it, and the prince is still grounded, I don't know when these six princes ......"

"Shhhhh......h ”

"Alas, I know, I know!"

The older man sighed.

Anyone with a little experience knows that the emperor's illness is strange, and the sky of the Tanglin Kingdom is about to change completely!

These old people, led by the Queen Mother in the past, have never experienced this kind of chaos.

At this time, the old ministers couldn't help but think of the queen mother, if the queen mother was in charge of the government, there would definitely not be this kind of suppression by the emperor and the six princes.

In other words, the previous dynasty was controlled by the six princes, and everyone couldn't even see the emperor, did the queen mother know about this matter?

Everyone knows that the Queen Mother swore an oath with the emperor at the beginning, and after the emperor was in power, she would never participate in the affairs of the previous dynasty again.

But under the control of the emperor, this government does not seem to be clear, and even the emperor has made several wrong choices, the most serious one is the royal drive to conquer the enemy Fanbang.

It's just that the emperor had the support of the queen mother behind him at that time, and even if everyone complained, they didn't dare to say anything.

In particular, the Queen Mother also adopted the youngest daughter of the Su family who sacrificed the whole clan to save the emperor.

is also Princess Nianyun, who has stood on the cusp of the storm in recent days!
