Dressed as a peasant girl, she pampered the powerful villain

The luxurious lady has a hairpin between her eyebrows, and the hairpin ring on her head shows her noble status. She is Qin Lan, the fourth imperial concubine, and the daughter of Qin Shangshu.

She also had confusion in her eyes: "In the past three years, His Majesty has ignored the second prince. He was exiled when he was told to be exiled. Isn't it just because he is not his biological son that he is so cruel? But no matter how cruel he is, the second prince appears to be so cruel. The news of the prince's death was not reported to His Majesty, but he suddenly wanted to summon the second prince to the palace. Could it be that he wanted to test you and the third prince?"

Xiao Heng's eyes turned red and he said, "The third child is a loser. What's there to test? But now the situation has become very tricky. If the courtiers knew that the prince died in the Exile Village but never reported it, they would definitely report it to Father Huang Che." To investigate this matter, whether my father cares about the second prince or not, he will still make a show of letting people investigate to the end. What I am afraid of is..."

The fourth princess was puzzled: "What are you afraid of, Your Highness?"

The fourth prince was slightly uneasy: "I'm afraid... my father is trying to protect the third son. After all, it is only reasonable for the third son to succeed to the throne according to the ancestral system. Although my father never expressed his position, I did not rush to rescue Yue Xi before Prince Rong rebelled." , it is possible to make him feel cold and change his mind. I just can’t figure it out... Why my father would rather send a secret edict to General Yue Xi who is far away on the border but not give me this opportunity... Has he really never trusted me? ?"

He wanted to use up King Rong's troops, and also wanted His Majesty to think that the third prince was colluding with King Rong. He never expected that General Yue Xi, who had come to rescue him with a secret order, would come out halfway and catch him off guard. , disrupting all plans.

He thought he was catching a turtle in an urn, but he didn't expect it was a mantis catching a cicada, followed by an oriole.

After all, my father still didn't trust him enough.

The fourth princess didn't think so: "I think your Majesty is trying to protect His Majesty."

The fourth prince was puzzled: "How do you say that?"

The fourth imperial concubine placed her slender jade fingers on the fourth prince's temples, gently rubbed them, and said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty wants to pass the throne to His Highness, so you must give the third prince a reason why he cannot succeed, such as... Murder the prince!"

The fourth prince held down the delicate and delicate skin that he was massaging. He looked at the fourth imperial concubine with a faint look: "You mean, my father is actually planning something for me?"

The fourth princess's red lips curled up slightly and she nodded slightly: "Among the many princes, whether it is facial features, talents or mood, His Highness is the one who is most like His Majesty. If Your Majesty really wants to pass the throne to the Third Prince, he will not let him go without taking photos. When it comes to government affairs, he has always seemed to be favored, but he is like a decoration. He comes and goes as soon as he is called. The three princesses he is getting married to are just the daughters of the Minister of Etiquette. Unlike His Highness, everything about marriage is not involved. It is up to you to make the decision. This is to satisfy his regret that he could not get what he asked for. Therefore, His Majesty is different from His Highness after all."

When the fourth prince heard this, his angry eyes suddenly turned warm, and he held the fourth princess tightly in his arms: "Yes, growing up, my father seemed to be the harshest to me, but in fact he loved me the most. Otherwise, I would have hoped I am marrying Taifu Sun's granddaughter, and I suddenly proposed marriage to you, but he just scolded me for a few words before agreeing, Lan'er, if everything goes as you said, then I... will really have peace of mind."

The fourth imperial concubine reminded: "Your Highness, we should think about how to make the second prince's death related to the third prince. Once the third prince is eliminated, the eldest prince is deposed, and the second prince dies, can the great minister be justifiably In the hands of His Highness.”

The court was deep and quiet, and the emotion in the fourth prince's rich voice was difficult to explain: "But, there is something I really can't understand."

Fourth Princess: "What's the matter?"

The Fourth Prince: "Did my real Second Emperor brother really die in infancy?"

The fourth imperial concubine was stunned: "Hasn't Your Highness investigated this matter? The first wife of the Zhang family claimed that a child was stillborn, wasn't she the second prince? Otherwise she wouldn't have been depressed and died of illness!"

The fourth prince couldn't explain his feelings clearly. The sorrow between his brows dispersed and then condensed: "I was afraid... that the Zhang family did not tell the truth at that time."

The fourth princess smiled and said: "Impossible, His Majesty had not yet ascended the throne. The old Marquis had no reason to do that at that time. He and His Majesty were brothers and sisters at that time, just because he was afraid that Your Majesty would be charged with cruel murder before he ascended the throne. Otherwise, just for this crime alone, The Supreme Emperor will not pass the throne to him. My father said that the Supreme Emperor’s initial preference was not His Majesty.

And the Zhang family sent their son away for the sake of their future. The second prince must have been killed by the old marquis for your majesty. His madness now is retribution. A person who knows your majesty’s biggest secret, if the real second prince is still there. , How could His Majesty kill the substitute without hesitation? "

The fourth prince nodded slightly, looked at the candlelight on the hook, sighed secretly with his pillow on the fourth princess's leg, and slowly closed his eyes: "If this is really the case, it would be the best!"

The battle for the throne has always been bloody. Since he can fight, why not?

Didn’t my father also fight for the throne? Thinking of this, when the fourth prince opened his eyes again, he was already filled with surging murderous intent.

……

The layout of the private room is indeed different from that of the small room. Although the layout of the private room is not luxurious, it is better than the large charcoal fire, and there is no dust everywhere. The proportion of food is more than that of the small room, and there is also a bathtub. You can clean yourself, but in the winter, no one will waste time on this aspect. The main reason is that it is too cold and they are reluctant to take off their clothes.

After passing the third station, the wind and snow became heavier and heavier, and the conditions became worse. Living in Yajian felt like being in a warm countryside.

Wang Shuyan was very satisfied, and Fei Ying and others were even more satisfied. They had planned on how to have a good meal and stay overnight when they came out, but now it was better to eat and sleep enough every day.

For three days in a row, Wang Shuyan and others were treated in private rooms at the inn. No matter how peaceful they were, they were still confused.

On the sixth day, when Wang Shuyan and others went downstairs, they saw a familiar face. It was Sergeant Liang, accompanied by several generals.

They seemed to arrive early.

"Miss Wang, you're fine!" Sergeant Liang looked at her with a thoughtful expression, and there was a bit of admiration and confusion hidden in his politeness.

"Why did Sergeant Liang come here in person?" Wang Shuyan was confused, why did this guy seem to miss the time to come and pick her up.

Sergeant Liang stood up and greeted her with a smile: "Miss Wang is transporting military supplies for Liang, so naturally I have to come to greet her in person."

Wang Shuyan naturally didn't believe it, and continued: "That's right, then let's hand over here."

Sergeant Liang's smile froze: "This is not possible. According to the rules, military supplies sent to the border must be inspected and stamped at the gate tower, and the Zhang Supervisor also needs to stamp them in person."

Then he whispered in her ear with an ambiguous look on his face: "You know the relationship between Miss Wang and Governor Zhang, and I know that Governor knows it, so please don't embarrass me. Governor Zhang knows that you personally deliver military supplies, so he specifically asked I’m coming to pick you up.”

Wang Shuyan looked deeply at Sergeant Liang: "Didn't you ask me to send it to you, Sergeant Liang? Could it be that Sergeant Liang arranged it on his own initiative?"

When she asked her so bluntly, Sergeant Liang looked embarrassed and said sarcastically: "It's getting late, Miss Wang, please invite me." He cursed in his heart: It's really not cute at all.

The wind and snow were brutal and the mountain road was rugged.

If Sergeant Liang hadn't come to lead the way in person, Wang Shuyan really couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find the location smoothly. After all, the map at this time is prone to errors, and it is easy to be misled and get lost.

Dawei's last frontier defense line is a tall tower with a garrison of 100,000 generals, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If this line of defense is breached, Lu and the barbarians will be in uninhabited territory, but this is impossible.

Sergeant Liang on horseback showed his token, and the young city guard immediately opened the city gates. The city gates on both sides were opened, and Wang Shuyan's motorcade moved forward one after another.

Feiying was about to drive the carriage to the right, but unexpectedly a man came over in person.

Feiying recognized him, he was Governor Zhang's long-time follower Buwei.
