Chapter 649
Moreover, the third prince has always been filial, and he is even more courteous to his uncle. Although he is often ignored by others, he has never complained. Instead, he is more cautious in his words and deeds, for fear of hurting his second brother the prince if he does something wrong.

Even his picky second sister Xiao Er said he was good.

Xiao Renling didn't think he would lie about his mother's murder.

On the contrary, it was Gu Nanyan, who had an insolent personality and was not easy to get along with. No matter who offended her, she would definitely be retaliated against, and she could do whatever she wanted with her status.

She even dared to fight the emperor, what else could she not do!

"I'm telling you the truth, your Prime Minister's Mansion is already surrounded by my people, as long as the matter here is resolved, Gu Nanyan won't even think about running away."

"I want her to be buried with the empress!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the people behind him surrounded Wei Hong and the others.

At this time, a figure outside the hall was quietly retreating, and when it retreated to a place where no one was around, it turned and ran towards the harem.

……

"Your Majesty, it's not good!" In Jingchen Palace, the nurse next to Xia Zhen hurriedly ran from outside the hall.

"What's the panic?" Xia Zhen was copying scriptures in the Small Buddha Hall, and frowned when he heard the mother's yelling.

Mammy didn't care if she was happy or not.

"Mother, Xiao Ren ordered the thief to lead the army into the palace, saying that he wanted to seek justice for the empress. The old slave also heard that he surrounded the prime minister's mansion, and wanted to let Prince Sheng be buried with him!"

Mammy was sweating profusely, never expecting such a thing to happen.

Bringing troops into the palace is a rebellion!

Xiao Renling might have risked everything this time, who knows what will happen next, maybe his own mother is also in danger.

Xia Zhen silently put down the pen in his hand, frowning into a Sichuan character.

"What evidence does he have to say that Princess Sheng is related to this matter?"

The nanny slapped her thigh: "Why do we need evidence, Xiao Renling always does his own thing, so what if there is no evidence for what he believes?"

"However, I heard that the third prince had entered the palace on the morning of the Empress's death, and had seen Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng with his own eyes."

The third prince usually keeps a low profile and never meddles in the affairs of the palace. This time he swears that he has met Prince Sheng and Princess Sheng, and Mammy feels that this may be true.

"Could it be that the queen was really..."

"Impossible, she is not such a sneaky person."

With her temperament, she will kill people openly and aboveboard.

"But Princess Cheng's temperament is really..." It's hard to say.

Xia Zhen lowered his head and stacked the Buddhist scriptures he had copied just now.

"You can't just look at people on the surface." She said lightly.

"Bengong had the same temperament when she was young, but she was a bit less aura than her, and she didn't know how to change things, so she received a lot of stares for nothing."

"Do you think Ben Gong is the kind of person who dares to do what he doesn't dare to do?" Xia Zhen asked her.

"Of course not," Mammy replied.

"That's right."

Mammy was speechless.

She felt that her own mother was still different from Princess Sheng.

The empress has been upright and selfless under the influence of her family since she was a child, but she really can't see the similarities between the two of them in the things that Prince Sheng did.

But this is not the time to talk about it.

"Your Majesty, do you think we should go out of the palace to hide?" It is too unsafe in the palace, although Jingchen Palace is remote, but once Xiao Renling starts an incident, the whole palace will be affected.

Xia Zhen gave her a funny look: "Why are you nervous, I am an elderly concubine, and my natal family has no help, what can they do to me."

At most, it's just a word of death.

"And you also said that Xiao Renling has brought people into the palace, and the gate of the palace must be controlled by him, so where can you and I escape?"

She is not afraid of anything else, but she is a little worried about Gu Nanyan.

Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ning Tianlu and Lieutenant General Li confronted each other for a long time.

When the envoys of the two countries heard that the prime minister's mansion was under siege, they also rushed over.

"What are you going to do? Why did you trap my concubine in the mansion." Yan Yushi shouted at the head.

"That is, we don't participate in the affairs of your Daliang Kingdom, but our princess is still inside, you will release her soon!" An envoy of the Anyang Kingdom also quit.

"There is also our little prince, if the two of them get hurt even the slightest bit, our two kingdoms will never let it go!"

These people were stopped by the soldiers, and Lieutenant General Li glanced at them and ignored them.

Turning to Ning Tianlu, he said: "Our general has no intention of making Anyang an enemy, but Gu Nanyan is the suspect in the assassination of our empress, and I hope the Duke of Xiaoguo can hand him over."

The main purpose of their trip was to capture Gu Nanyan, trap Ning Tianlu at the same time, and use him to threaten Wei Hong when necessary.

Of course, it would be better if they could take the initiative to hand over the person.

"Dream!" Ning Tianlu stood at the door of the mansion and snorted coldly.

"If you want to take the princess of our country, your general wants to make an enemy of me, Anyang."

"Before leaving Beijing, His Majesty of our country has issued an imperial decree, ordering the 15 troops of the Weiyang Army to go to the border and stand by at any time. If you dare to touch Miss Nan, our country will trample every inch of Daliang Kingdom with iron hooves!"

"Vice General Li, I wonder if Old General Xiao wants to understand the power of our Weiyang Army?"

Lieutenant General Li naturally didn't want to, and neither did their generals.

But the general attaches great importance to family affection, and Empress Xiao was murdered for no reason as his own sister, and the culprit will be caught no matter what.

"Mr. Ning Xiaoguo, it's not that the old general wants to embarrass Anyang, but the murder of a queen has nothing to do with the state. If this is the case, what will be the face of our country after the news spreads."

"Not like this..."

He pretended to think about it for a moment, and then said: "The old general is not an unreasonable person. The empress has a high status, so if Gu Nanyan pays with the princess's life, you will not suffer."

Ning Tianlu was furious when he heard the words, if he didn't know the disparity in strength between the enemy and us, he might draw his sword and cut him down.

What does it mean that we are not at a disadvantage? Can his sister Nan be compared to any cat or dog?

Not to mention a little queen, so what if he killed the Emperor of Liang!

At worst, it's just a matter of trying to knock down the girder.

"Young Lord, please don't be angry, just listen to the minister."

Vice-General Li blushed when he saw that he was angry, and he looked like he was going to fight him, and hurriedly said: "Although we have dealt with Gu Nanyan, we have a peace, but our general said that we will draw out from the border town afterwards." Two cities as compensation."

He looked in the direction of the envoy again: "It's the same in Jianan."

He thought that saying this would resolve some conflicts, at least everyone could sit down and talk calmly, and then their generals would increase the stakes later.

It's just Gu Nanyan, he doesn't believe that the city can't exchange her life!

However, he really misjudged the situation.

"Fart!" Yan Yushi pointed at his nose and cursed.

"What do you mean by my princess!"

"Is she a thing?"

"no!"

"Since it's not a thing, what do you mean by bartering? Are you bullying His Majesty my brain?"

Lieutenant General Li: "..."

Everyone: "..."

There are too many slots and I don't know where to start.

Gu Nanyan was walking towards the door unsteadily, when she was just approaching, she heard someone scolding her for not being a thing.

And that familiar tone and volume sounded like his own.

Gu Nanyan: "..."

She walked over with a dark face, and immediately saw Yan Yushi who was jumping in place angrily.

Gu Nanyan didn't want to see him at all.

Not because he scolded himself for not being a thing.

But seeing him made her think of the 200 million taels of silver donated.

Distressed!

"It's so lively."

Thinking of silver, Gu Nanyan's mood fell off a cliff.

Swing all the way to the bottom of the valley.

So seeing Lieutenant General Li became even more unpleasant.

Coincidentally, she didn't like Lieutenant General Li, and Lieutenant General Li was even more jealous when meeting her enemies.

"The concubine appeared at this time, but she was caught without a fight." Lieutenant General Li said sarcastically.

The broken ribs in his chest hurt his internal organs, plus the sequelae of traveling for days.

The imperial doctor said that whenever it rains on a cloudy day, he will have pain in the broken bone in his chest, and he will cough continuously.

For a general, this is tantamount to cutting off his official career.
