The fifth princess came to Concubine Liu Gui's bedroom early in the morning to bring snacks to Concubine Liu Gui.

Concubine Liu Gui doesn't like sweets, but prefers salty dim sum.

Therefore, the fifth princess specially asked Shang Shi from the Shang Palace Bureau for advice and learned a bite of crisp.

She got up before dawn, and it took almost two hours to make a satisfying plate of crisps, for which her hands burned several blisters.

Since she didn't go to Beidi and kiss, her mother has been lukewarm to her, and she deliberately harsh her winter last winter, and until now, she has been ignoring her affairs.

When she went to the province of morning and dusk, the mother rarely saw her, and mostly left her out to dry.

At first, she waited outside, and once she waited all day until her mother went to bed.

In the end, she was persuaded to leave by the grandmother of the palace of the concubine.

After a long time, she also learned to be obedient, and when the mother didn't see her, she saluted outside the room and waited for a while before leaving.

But this time it was different, she specially made food for her mother, no matter what, she wanted her mother to taste it and tell her what it tasted like before she could leave.

But the concubine still did not see her......

The fifth princess, Qin Shuchun, wanted to meet her mother so much.

This time, she didn't give up leaving, but found a place to hide in Concubine Liu Gui's bedroom.

Since she was a child, she has grown up playing here with the four princes, and no one knows the layout of Concubine Liu Gui's bedroom better than her.

She was going to wait for Concubine Liu Gui to come out, so she rushed to Concubine Liu Gui with a food box and asked her mother to eat snacks to forgive her.

Xu is mother will soften her heart when she sees her appearance.

The place where the fifth princess hid was in the study and ear room of Concubine Liu Gui's bedroom.

This ear room was originally for the night vigil maids, but Concubine Liu Gui did not often use the study, and no one needed to live in the ear room to serve at any time, so this room was vacant.

After waiting for more than an hour, I didn't see Concubine Liu Gui come out, the fifth princess was about to give up and leave, and just after moving her steps, she heard the voice of someone talking, and it was Concubine Liu Gui's!

She was overjoyed in her heart, and was about to go out, when she suddenly heard the voice of her brother, the fourth prince, King Ping.

Thinking that the mother and the fourth brother are here, it is not good for her to go out like this, it is better to wait for the fourth brother to leave, and then she will ask the mother concubine for her guilt.

But the next sentence of the fourth prince made Qin Shuchun's whole person freeze.

"Mother, Qin Shuhuang has returned to Beijing safely! The Lord Regent will definitely not be able to sit still and make a move, we are running out of time! What about the private soldiers under your command? King Ping anxiously walked around the study.

It turned out that King Ping's private soldiers were not just one part, but two parts!

Just in case, King Ping left a back hand.

Both parts of the private army were 5,000 people, he led a part, and Concubine Liu Gui still held the remaining 5,000 people in her hands.

If his part of the people fails, there will be people under Concubine Liu Gui to make up for it.

That's the whole plan!

No third person knows about this except their mother and son!

Otherwise, with the financial resources accumulated by Concubine Liu Gui and King Heping over the years, how could they not be able to raise a private army.

Because it's not one private soldier at all, it's two!

Concubine Liu Gui grabbed her son, and then asked him to sit down.

"At this time, the most taboo is to play cards randomly, our mother and son have endured it for so many years, and now it is a critical time to calm down. Son, don't worry, the private soldiers here are no problem with the concubine, and you don't have to worry about Qian Xiang. The silver sent by the Liu family was deliberately withheld by the concubine before, and now it is taken out for emergency, and it can last at least three months, you just need to take care of the expenses of your private soldiers. ”

Hearing Concubine Liu Gui's words, King Ping sighed and relaxed a lot.

"It's still the mother's long-term view."

"This time Qin Shuhuang comes back, what should we do if she unites the Rongguo Mansion and the old department of the Zhenbei Wangfu to support Qin Shumin?" King Ping said with a frown.

When Concubine Liu Gui heard her son say this, she suddenly sneered, "My son doesn't have to worry, the ability of the Rongguo Mansion is limited, and the Xu family is difficult to protect itself in Xia Gongcheng, so they can't help the Rongguo Mansion." Today's King of Zhenbei is not a threat, even if the relationship between Qin Shuhuang and Qin Shumin can be repaired, what then? Has my son forgotten the regent? How could the regent and his wife let Qin Shuhuang and Qin Shumin's sisters and brothers grow up? Qin Shumin grew up in the deep palace, and he was afraid that he was already surrounded by spies from the regent! ”

"Mother concubine, do you think we don't need to take Qin Shuhuang and Qin Shumin's sisters and brothers in our eyes? Will the Prince Regent deal with them? We just have to wait until the right time to reap the benefits of the fisherman? ”

Concubine Liu Gui's eyes emitted a cold light, "Whoever can have the perseverance to lurk to the end will be the winner!" ”

The mother and son chatted about something else, and King Ping was ready to leave.

At this time, his face had become calmer, not as fierce and hideous as when he first arrived.

Just about to leave, Concubine Liu Gui stopped King Ping, "That Bai Lingge, what are you going to do in the future?" ”

You can't really let Bai Lingge be Princess Ping, she doesn't agree!

King Ping smiled and coaxed Concubine Liu Gui, "Why is the mother still angry about this matter." It's just a woman, since she can have the ability to make money for us, what about giving her a side concubine? If our mother and son can ascend to the throne in the future, we will lock her in the deep palace. ”

Hearing her son's answer, Concubine Liu Gui felt a little satisfied.

"Okay, you go out of the palace quickly, I'll watch the rest."

"There's a concubine."

After speaking, King Ping left in a hurry.

Concubine Liu Gui stayed in the study and drank half a cup of tea before calling the palace maid to help her leave.

After Concubine Liu Gui left for a long time, the fifth princess Qin Shuchun dared to gasp for breath.

Her face turned pale.

I never thought that the mother concubine and the fourth brother would rebel and usurp the throne here! And also raise private soldiers!

She couldn't accept it for a while, and her hands holding the food box trembled.

It took a while for her strength to stand up and leave the study quietly, nervously.

Xu was too nervous, and accidentally tripped when he was under the porch, and the whole person fell to the ground, the food box in his hand broke open, and the snacks inside spilled to the ground.

The fifth princess didn't care about the knee pain, and immediately picked up the snacks on the ground in a panic and threw them into the food box, and then left quickly with the food box.

I'm afraid that I will be discovered if I take a step too late.

In the middle of the afternoon, Concubine Liu Gui's cronies and grandmothers gave Concubine Liu Gui snacks and passed by the study, and when she was walking under the porch, she stepped on something.

When I looked down, it was half a piece of snack!

The cronies looked down and looked carefully, only to see that there were many dim sum crumbs around this half of the dim sum, and looking at the appearance of this dim sum, it seemed to be a mouthful of cake.

Mama picked up some crumbs of snacks and put them on the tip of her nose and sniffed them.

It's a fresh bite with a milky flavor.

This kind of dim sum is precious, but it is not something that ordinary palace maids in the palace can eat.

The cronies glanced at the location of the study, frowned, and then hurried to Concubine Liu Gui's bedroom.
