It's just June, and the weather is getting hotter day by day. The flowers and plants in the imperial garden are luxuriant, and they are thriving by the palace ladies and eunuchs.

Today, His Majesty went to Gu Guifei's palace for a rare time, Gu Guifei was surprised and delighted, only when His Majesty changed his mind and remembered his own good in the past.

Thinking of this, Gu Guifei was shy and timid, and her delicate face was like a young and ignorant girl, "Your Majesty, why do you have time to come here today?" Why don't you look at those new entrants? ”

In the end, there was a sour feeling in and out of the words.

His Majesty was a little unhappy when he heard this, he came to Gu Guifei's palace today because of the court, and someone mentioned the matter of changing His Royal Highness King Yu as the crown prince. He suspected that Gu Guifei and the Gu family behind her were fueling the troubles, so he came here to explore one or two.

"Recently, the whereabouts of the crown prince are unknown, and there has been no news from the border. I have entrusted him with a great responsibility, but he has not behaved as well as he wants, which is really a disappointment for me. However, His Royal Highness King Yu has been acting cautiously and diligently these days, and he has the style of Xiao's father. ”

As he spoke, His Majesty raised the teacup and took a sip, but the afterglow remained on Gu Guifei's face, observing her reaction, wanting to get a glimpse of it.

Maybe it's because Your Majesty has favored Your Majesty for many years, or maybe it's because of the queen's concession and haggard feeling in recent days, maybe it's the silence of the queen mother, or maybe it's Your Majesty's words and deeds today that gave Gu Guifei a hint, and Gu Guifei was almost carried away by joy.

Gu Guifei thought that His Majesty was moving to change His Royal Highness King Yu to the crown prince, so she came to Changchun Palace to ask her opinion. In the many years that Gu Guifei was favored, His Majesty has always done this. So much so that some courtiers want to be promoted or released, and they will try their best to go through the path of Gu Guifei, so as to get His Majesty to agree.

It's a pity that this time, Gu Guifei is destined to be disappointed.

For His Majesty now, he may be really wary of the crown prince, but at the same time, he is even more wary of His Royal Highness King Yu becoming the next prince. A prince whose mother family was not prominent enough had already made him worry day and night about the instability of the throne. And His Royal Highness King Yu's maternal family is so prominent, if His Royal Highness King Yu really becomes the crown prince, I am afraid that His Majesty will be so worried that he will not be able to sleep.

Now the only thing that will reassure His Majesty is the prince who is still young and preferably still babbling. It's a pity that Gu Guifei hasn't experienced much wind and rain, and she can't figure out His Majesty's thoughts.

Gu Guifei looked at her husband in front of her in surprise, she bowed down, her posture was elegant and delicate like a spring willow. The joy and anticipation in his eyes could not be concealed.

"King Yu thinks about how to share his father's worries day and night, and only begs His Majesty to give him a chance."

And His Majesty's eyes can't see her amorous and joyful, and in His Majesty's eyes, he only sees Gu Guifei's desire to help her son seize power. His Majesty held back his disgust, raised his hand to help her, and said lightly, "King Yu is a good boy, and thanks to your teaching, I will give him a good future." ”

After saying that, His Majesty couldn't play anymore, and only said that he was busy with government affairs and ordered people to leave.

And His Royal Highness the Prince, who is thousands of miles away, although he still left most of the team on the border, he himself has led the subdued henchmen to approach the capital step by step, of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not forget the person assigned by His Majesty to summon the message.

When the group of them was halfway through, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly ordered the accompanying sergeants to stop.

Pei Jian was puzzled, "Your Highness, why did you stop suddenly?" Obviously, we will be able to enter the capital in ten days. Wen Cheng was even more keen, "Could it be that His Highness is worried that after we return to Beijing, we will be reprimanded for failing to report the military aircraft in time, causing the military aircraft to be delayed, and then being punished by His Majesty?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked in the direction of the capital from afar, and suddenly ordered someone to bring up the messenger that had been detained earlier.

The torture in the dark these days has long packed up this originally iron-clad man. His Majesty didn't send his henchmen to come in the first place, and this man had already thrown himself to the prince's side.

Thanks to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's forgiving and benevolent image over the years, His Majesty did not put too many eyes and ears in the three armies, but randomly assigned a person to deliver the news for him. But now this person is already a member of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The strong man surnamed Qian was pushed forward, clasped his fists and saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince's orders to his subordinates must go to the soup and die without giving up." ”

He was really frightened by those dark tortures, who would have thought that the rumored gentle and indisputable His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would have such a means in private. There is no way, if he has to be hard-boned, he is afraid that he will be wrapped in a roll of straw mats and thrown into the mass grave by now. The three armies fought a war, and it was too common for a few people to die. Ordinary to the point where no one would be suspicious.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sitting in the saddle of the sweaty BMW from the Western Regions for tribute had an awe-inspiring expression, and this royal expedition seemed to inspire the coldness and anger in his bones.

The strong man surnamed Qian didn't even dare to raise his head, but only dared to lie on the ground slightly and wait for His Royal Highness the Prince's order, and then, he heard a cold voice.

"Lone gives you a horse, and you quickly enter the capital to deliver a message. It is said that Lone won a complete victory in the conquest of Hulu Khan, and now the morale of the three armies is uplifted, and it is even more united with Beidi to set off further north of the north to pacify many tribes in the north for my Ji Dynasty. ”

As soon as these words came out, the sergeants on the left and right were puzzled.

Pei Jian, who was anxious, had already subconsciously spoke, "Your Highness, aren't we already on our way back?" That is, he, who has been with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for many years, dared to refute one or two.

And some of the many sergeants standing on the left and right seemed to realize something, and some were confused for some reason, but they were all silent. Seeing this, Pei Jian didn't ask any more, but just acted according to the order.

And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not say a word after saying this, and he did not seem to have the slightest doubt that the sergeants of the three armed forces would obey his inexplicable orders.

As he had expected, the left and right sergeants had already been subdued by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince these days, and they had no doubt that they would be banned at the moment.

From here, it only takes three days to travel to the capital day and night. The strong man surnamed Qian had preset various scenes after meeting the emperor in his heart, and he was worried day and night about how not to be discovered by His Majesty, and he had taken refuge in His Royal Highness the Prince.

So much so that when he arrived in the capital, the strong man surnamed Qian lost a lot of weight. This is in line with what he said about his day and night. As for the rest, there are princes who stay in the capital to take care of them.

The strong man surnamed Qian waited anxiously, but found that His Majesty had no idea of summoning him at all, but only ordered a eunuch to inquire about the situation.

After that, the people who remained in place by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince received a thunderous order from His Majesty, ordering them to leave for Beijing without delay. A group of people, the second monk, was confused, and they didn't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had done, so His Majesty had this order, so they could only set off after rectifying the military in a daze.

Under His Majesty's orders, this group of sergeants of the three armies marched to the capital day and night. However, their journey was not as smooth as that of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they encountered several assassinations along the way.

It seems that she is afraid of disturbing the Queen Mother of Beidi Regent, and every assassination is aimed at a clear goal, avoiding the camp where the Queen Mother is located, but going straight to the commander's camp.

After several times, even people who don't know about the government can see the doorway. Thanks to this, there are not many injuries in the army, which is a good thing.

On this day's march, there was a break by chance, and a few sergeants chatted idly, "You say, who dares to be assassinated again and again?" Our boss is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

The other, slightly taller-born sergeant, scoffed, as if mocking the man. "You know what? The more His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is, the more people want to assassinate him. People like us, others are only afraid of assassination and hate wasting silver. ”

"Then who do you say has such courage, could it be that His Royal Highness King Yu wants to replace His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so he made a dangerous move." "In my opinion, Xu Zhaorong is also very suspicious, isn't she very favored recently? And she also has a prince. "I see, what you said is not right, it should be the emperor's brother." "How did I hear that it was a relative of the Queen Mother who did it, saying that she wanted her son to be the emperor."

Everyone talked a lot about it, until it attracted a more senior general.

The general frowned, "What nonsense are you all talking about?" You really ate the bear's heart and leopard's guts, and you actually dared to gather in front of the public to discuss the government, and you didn't want to live? ”

was reprimanded by him like this, and everyone left and dispersed in a hurry.

And His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knew about the frequent assassinations, he was not surprised, his father had long wanted to send him to death, and this royal expedition was the best evidence. It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't expect that his father didn't even care about the regent Queen Mother of Beidi, and was bent on killing him.

Malice surged in his heart, and he thought indifferently, "Unexpectedly, father, not only did I not die on the battlefield, but I also took this opportunity to win people's hearts, you see, between you and me after all, I am superior." ”

And at this moment in the palace, there is probably only Queen Wen who is happy, since the news of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's victory came. Queen Wen changed her haggard appearance in the past, and began to be in the mood to go out to meet guests. When he met Gu Guifei, he was even more radiant, and he frequently stimulated Gu Guifei through the affairs of His Royal Highness King Yu.

In the end, it was Queen Wen's father, Mr. Wen, who sent a message after learning about this, and Queen Wen restrained her style a little.

But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not so happy when he heard the queen, and he was still very worried. Over the past few days, Wen Cheng and Pei Jian, who have been following him, have sensed the tension of His Royal Highness the Prince's emotions, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be on the verge of reaching the limit of his emotions.

But no matter how long the road was, there was a time to walk, and seven days later, a large army caught up with a small group led by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince outside the capital.
