When Xu Xiu was triumphant, Eleven Niang had just completed the plan to send Master Mingkong out of Yunzhou Pass and return to Northern Liao, but she did not follow the plan drawn up when she asked the Empress Dowager to give advice, and deliberately leaked Mingkong's whereabouts to Yingzhou Tenants, but directly used Pei Sange - after all, although the two countries were at war, they still could not cut off the merchants from secretly trafficking goods to Pan and Liao, such as silk, treasures, spices and other items, which were actually not helpful to the war, so as long as it was not food, horses, weapons and other materials, The Great Zhou court did not strictly prohibit it, so if Mingkong wanted to sneak back to his homeland quietly, the most convenient way was to hide in the caravan.

Since Brother Pei has already won the trust of Pan Bo, where do you need to alarm the rest of the tenants.

Eleven Niang intends to let Pei Sange make contributions and continue to win Pan Bo's trust.

To the surprise of Eleven Niang, the Queen Mother did attach importance to the separation plan, and arranged for a cronie to escort Mingkong back to China, and even told the Empress Dowager that Eleven Niang had persuaded Mingkong to deliver a certain poison, as long as the person who tested the poison took the antidote first, it would not show any signs, then adding a highly toxic diet would successfully deceive the King of Northern Liao, and the King of Northern Liao died violently, and Empress Xiao would have the opportunity to control the overall situation, how could Concubine Shu, who had lost her support, be the opponent of Xiao?

And the latest news that Eleven Niang got is that although many clans of the Yelu clan advocated that the eldest prince should be the prince, the king of Northern Liao was not moved at all, and even caught several mistakes of the eldest prince, reprimanded him, and found out the guilt of several officials of the Chang Long Party, and sentenced him to death.

In such a situation, the eldest prince has only a desperate gamble, that is, to launch a coup d'état and kill his father and usurp the throne!

Of course, the eldest prince's plan could not succeed, because Concubine Shu would soon learn the details of this plan from Pan Bo's mouth, and the king of Northern Liao had already taken precautions, so how could he really be poisoned? At that time, the crimes of Empress Xiao's mother and son were exposed, and it was naturally impossible to escape death, but Northern Liao Xiao was not so easy to be wiped out, they were bound to return to the fiefdom and gather troops to resist the king of Northern Liao, and the civil war in Northern Liao could no longer be avoided.

It's also time to have closer contact with the eighth prince Yeluqi who came to Taiyuan in exile, if the eldest prince dies, the bargaining chip in the hands of Northern Liao Xiao is only Yeluqi, because if they have the heart to stand up for themselves, they will inevitably be hit by the unity of the Yelu clan, but if Yeluqi is promoted, after all, it is more nominal, and those clans who oppose Concubine Shu's mother and son may be won over by Northern Liao Xiao.

Of course, Shi Niang understands that it is not the time to support Yeluqi to win the throne at this time, what she has to do is not to let Yeluqi sneak back to Northern Liao, because the friendship with this strong contender for the throne has not been laid, so let him return to China like this, and the peace talks with Northern Liao will lose a vital bargaining chip in the future.

That's right, whether it is He Ye or Eleven Niang, in fact, there is no idea of attacking Northern Liao, the war brings huge losses to a country, if it is not necessary, it cannot be easily launched, not to mention that there are still many problems within the Great Zhou at the moment, and there are even new Turks eyeing each other, after recovering Yingzhou, it is wise to negotiate peace with Northern Liao.

Eleven Niang just finished dealing with all kinds of major affairs to the outside world, and received the Queen Mother's "affectionate" family letter, that day she happened to be in the Suhui Pavilion with Lu Li, Ruan Ling discussed, naturally let the two of them read the Queen Mother's "confession" full of longing, Ruan Ling was immediately anxious: "The princess can still laugh?" Although the Queen Mother did not accept the attack, she not only reprimanded Fang Yanqing, but even publicly commended her, what does it mean? It shows that the Queen Mother is actually suspicious, and this time the edict ordered her uncle and princess to return to Beijing, which is bound to have bad intentions! ”

Even Lu Li, this time, even echoed Ruan Ling's opinion: "If the princess returns to Beijing under the edict, she is really in danger." ”

"That's what the Queen Mother thinks, so she is tempted by this." Only then did Shi Niang admit frankly: "I actually expected that the Queen Mother would have such a reaction, as long as I return to Beijing with His Royal Highness, the Queen Mother will inevitably dispel her doubts." ”

She smiled lightly and comforted the two: "If the Queen Mother is really determined to get rid of me as soon as possible, she can accept Fang Yanqing's attack, and convict me of execution in a clear and honest manner, where do you need to be appeased on the surface, and only after calling me back to Beijing will the killer be killed, if the Queen Mother really assassinates me, won't it be true, and it will be detrimental to the reputation that she has always valued?" ”

Seeing that Lu Li and Ruan Ling were still full of anxiety, Eleven Niang explained again: "This time I fought with Xu Xiuneng, I seemed negative, but it was not that I didn't do anything, in fact, I had already passed His Royal Highness to guard the secret line inside, and reported to the Queen Mother that Mao Wei's advisers were actually planted by the King of Shu, and the Queen Mother was already suspicious of Mao Wei's surrender to the King of Shu!" ”

This matter was already implemented when Eleven Niang decided to stimulate Xu Xiuneng, before Fang Yanqing's impeachment, the Queen Mother did not know that the so-called "counterwords" in Jinyang City were actually secretly spread by Xu Xiuneng, of course, it is impossible to link the information obtained by the internal inspection guard with this impeachment accident and suspect Eleven Niang.

"When His Royal Highness and I return to Beijing, Mao Wei certainly hopes that I will go and never return, so what will he do?"

Lu Li judged: "It should encourage the people to spread the news of Fang Yanqing's attack on the princess, so that the people of Taiyuan believe that the queen mother's edict to return to Beijing this time is intended to assassinate, so that the people will inevitably resent Fang Yanqing for framing the princess, and Mao Wei will easily provoke chaos, so that the queen mother believes that the princess intends to use public opinion to coerce in order to protect herself, so that the queen mother will certainly not forgive the princess." ”

Eleven Niang bowed: "But would the Queen Mother really believe that such an unwise act was arranged by herself?" As long as I and His Royal Highness are ordered to return to Beijing, it is enough to say that there is no rebellion, but if I provoke civil unrest in this move, wouldn't it confirm my ill-intentioned intentions? Of course, the Queen Mother will find out that Mao Wei is the driving force behind the scenes. ”

Although the internal inspection guard confirmed that Mao Wei had already served the king of Shu, but the king of Shu did not seek rebellion now, recommending a strategist to Mao Wei was not a crime at all, and the queen mother could not use this excuse to openly punish Mao Wei, and then although Mao Wei said that he became the party of the king of Shu, after all, the son of heaven was still young, and the tension between the queen mother and the king of Shu was not at the time of tension, but Mao Wei and Eleven Niang were incompatible, and it was not at ease to let Mao Wei supervise and contain the queen mother of the Jin Dynasty.

Similarly, the Queen Mother also needs Eleven Niang to contain Mao Wei, because once the Queen Mother convicts Eleven Niang, is it possible to seriously count on He Ye, who is useless in her opinion, to guard Taiyuan? At that time, the faction of the king of Shu will be ready to move again, and launch the ministers to send the king of Shu to guard Taiyuan, how can the queen mother let the king of Shu succeed?

"Xu Xiu can think that Wu Wei Hou won again and again, and the new policy was successfully implemented in Taiyuan Mansion, I seem to be irreplaceable, the Queen Mother can rest assured that he boldly crossed the river and demolished the bridge, he miscalculated the situation in Taiyuan, and saw that I just left on the front foot, Jinyang City immediately almost broke out in civil unrest, if I really execute the princess of Jin, unless the King of Shu, no one has the ability to pacify Taiyuan, don't look at Taiyuan at this time prosperous, but there is negligence, collapse is also in the blink of an eye, Taiyuan is in chaos, the front-line military needs are urgent, people's hearts are floating, The good situation will collapse in a blink of an eye, although the queen mother attaches importance to the kiln order and the construction of the mausoleum, but if the Pan Liao coalition army breaks through the Weize Pass and drives straight in, the country has to change her surname, can she really bury the mausoleum? ”

Eleven Niang was confident: "As long as the Queen Mother believes that I have no disobedient intentions, she will never assassinate me, so that I will not return." ”

She had already made up her mind, and immediately arranged the "aftermath": "Sixth brother and Ling'er must be careful, they can't indulge the people to really kill Fang Yanqing angrily, so that the people will break out, otherwise these innocent people will be unable to escape the death penalty, we must appease and calm down, so that the people will not be instigated by rumors, I believe that the queen mother called me back to Beijing this time, it is indeed just to talk about family affection, and to appease me from being attacked." ”

After the arrangements were properly arranged, Eleven Niang went to Zhangtai Garden - since the Queen Mother ordered her and He Ye to return to Beijing, of course she had to inform King Jin immediately.

After He Ye heard about this, he raised his eyebrows: "Everything is still in the princess's plan?" ”

"Indeed." Eleven Niang said frankly: "But this time, even His Highness will be in danger with me." ”

"Since the princess is confident, how can she talk about risking her life?" He Ye didn't ask about Shi Niang's plans at all, and he didn't worry at all: "Besides, even if I am in danger, I must face it with the princess, if you are not to assist me in achieving a great cause, how can you be involved in these many treacherous and difficult dangers?" Yiyi and I were originally born and died together, didn't we? ”

Looking at the relaxed and calm demeanor of the man in front of her, Shi Niang suddenly felt that He Ye was unprecedentedly handsome and handsome, and could be so trusted by a person who wanted to be in a position of power, of course Shi Niang's mood was happy and bright, she actually felt that at this moment, she seriously believed in those sweet words of life and death, she even ignored Jiang Yuan's order, leaned forward, and imprinted a kiss on He Ye's cheek with a smile.

This abrupt move instantly made He Ye's eyes dark, took the hand of Eleven Niang, got up and stepped over the knee, in the light sunlight of early spring, the man held the woman's shoulders and stood in front of the window.

"It's really rare for the princess to take the initiative to kiss, do you think Xiao Wang is particularly handsome and charming today?"
