Reborn Di daughter seeks the world

Chapter 99 The Achilles' heel

At night, the study room of King Jin's Mansion was brightly lit. A man in a light blue brocade robe was leaning on the back of his chair with an indescribably tired expression on his face. He raised his hand and rubbed between his brows. Suddenly he grabbed the teacup on the table and dropped it to the ground.With a bang, the cup shattered, and he was even more puzzled. He got up and threw the pen container on the table, and cursed angrily, "That idiot Qi Shichao."

Originally, his father asked him to return to the palace for a banquet because he intended to entrust him with important tasks and give him instructions.But I didn't expect to be ruined by that idiot Qi Shichao. The first sentence my father said after seeing him was that he was weak and incompetent, without the majesty of a prince.He even scolded him for his modesty, virtuousness, and benevolence of the dignified king of Jin, which made the royal family's majesty demolished, making him unbearable to be a child of the royal family!

Of course he knew why his father was angry, wasn't it because Princess Chongguang was almost humiliated? !The people in An Guogong's mansion are also stupid enough to really think that Qi Shichao is some kind of sweet pastry, and everyone else wants to take a bite.Who doesn't know that Princess Chongguang avoids him like a snake and scorpion now, and even dares to plot against her and frame her in Huangzhuang.An ordinary princess is fine, but she is the daughter of Princess Yaoguang.

Take a closer look, most of the favored princesses in the palace are similar to Princess Yaoguang, not to mention that there is a woman who is five points similar to her now, the father is afraid that he will put all the love for Aunt Yaoguang on her body.

"Your Highness, why should you be angry? In fact, Your Highness might as well think that the Emperor values ​​His Highness." A calm voice suddenly came out from the room, breaking up the dullness in the room, "After all, people always like to vent their anger on those close to them. Didn't Prince Duan go with His Highness this time? Why didn't His Majesty reprimand King Duan?!"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Qingyuan's complexion improved a lot in an instant. He looked at the man sitting next, and his face became a little more humble, "What you said, sir, is that the king was confused just now."

The man looked 27 or [-], dressed in white, tall but slightly thin, his appearance was extremely handsome, not like Jun Qianlan's enchanting charm, but exuding a heroic demeanor, it's a pity that he The sickly whiteness on his face added a little weakness to him.

"Ahem..." The man suddenly covered his mouth and coughed. He took out a handkerchief with his other hand and wiped the corner of his mouth.

Qin Qingyuan looked at the man's increasingly pale expression, and said with concern: "Is your health important, sir? It's better to let me find an imperial doctor for you. It's not an option to delay like this."

"This is a disease brought out of the mother's womb. It will not be cured for a while. Thank you, Nan Lie, for your kindness." The man put away the veil, his pale face revealed a calm and calm look through the world, he suddenly looked up Looking at Qin Qingyuan, "It's not that your highness has never been criticized by his majesty in the past, why are you so impatient today?"

When Qin Qingyuan heard this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face. Don't look at him being famous and high-spirited. He was often scolded by his father on weekdays.As for King Duan, King Cheng, and King Jing, there are even more.

However, there is nothing wrong with being reprimanded, and things that are too perfect are always worrying.

"Sir, it's not that you don't know that my sixth younger brother is back." Qin Qingyuan's brows seemed to have an indelible frown. After Qin Jingyuan came back, his brows never relaxed.The father is getting older and has not established a crown prince for a long time. Since the incident three years ago, no one in the court dared to mention the matter of establishing a crown prince.The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, if the guess is wrong, if you are on the wrong team, then the family will be ransacked and wiped out.

In this way, Qin Jingyuan, who has military power in the Northland, has a lot of advantages over them. Even if he doesn't have the Sacred Heart, his father never considered letting others take over the Northland.

"Your Highness is afraid of the military power in the hands of King Jing?! In fact, your Highness need not worry, the military power in the north is not in the hands of King Jing." Nan Lie said indifferently.

As soon as these words came out, Qin Qingyuan was taken aback, and looked at Nan Lie in surprise, "How could it be, father didn't take back Qin Jingyuan's military power at all..." If he took it back, how could it be possible to hide it!
"Your Highness, why don't you think about it, why did King Jing come back non-stop just after defeating Rongdi? He knows that His Majesty doesn't like him, so why would he return to Beijing rashly?" Nan Lie smiled slightly, and looked at Qin Qin deeply. Qingyuan.

Seeing that meaningful gaze, Qin Qingyuan calmed down instantly, recalling what happened recently. Indeed, Qin Jingyuan came back so suddenly that they didn't know his movements until he returned to Liyang City.

"Sir, you mean that the father is worried about handing over the military power to him, so let him return to Beijing to hand over the military power early?" Qin Qingyuan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized that it must be like this. It's getting worse, and I'm quite afraid of them on weekdays, and I'm even more afraid of Qin Jingyuan, an unfavored son who holds military power.

"However, this does not mean that His Highness can relax his vigilance against King Jing." Nan Lie added.

Qin Qingyuan looked at the information about King Jing's recent movements on the table, his eyes darkened, and he naturally knew that he could not relax his vigilance against Qin Jingyuan. To him, Qin Jingyuan was like a sleeping lion, who would wake up and bite at any time.Even if he doesn't have the military power in his hands, the fact that the father still reuses him shows his ability.If such a person cannot be used by him, it will definitely be a big problem in the future. Obviously, he is not in the same way as others.

It's not that he didn't think of catching him, but he was rarely in Beijing, even if he participated in the concert, most of them lacked evidence, and in the end they only got a mild reprimand from his father.They also didn't dare to send spies to the Northland. The most taboo of the father is these intriguing partisan disputes.If you do too much, it's over.

"This time Li Qu's case may be an opportunity." Nan Lie suddenly covered the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and wanted to cough, but he couldn't seem to cough, his face turned slightly red.

Qin Qingyuan looked at Nan Lie's distressed appearance, sighed and said: "Sir, I am so grateful for planning for this king regardless of his own safety."

Nan Lie coughed lowly, put down the veil, his handsome face was calm and indifferent, "Your Highness, you are polite, as a counselor, you must share the master's worries at any time. Let's continue."

Hearing these words, Qin Qingyuan nodded, feeling a little more confident in his heart, he could get the help of the famous Nan Lie, so why not worry about a major failure.

"I didn't expect that my father would hand over this case to me. Li Qu's case is a hot potato. If it is handled well, it will be valued by my father. If it is not handled well..." He said here Frowning, he really didn't want to get involved with anyone involved in the case three years ago.

"Your Highness is afraid that the emperor is testing your relationship with King Huan?" Nan Lie suddenly raised his head to look at Qin Qingyuan and shook his head, "Your Highness may worry too much about this, if His Majesty really thinks that you have something to do with King Huan, Today, you are not the one who can always accompany His Majesty in Beijing. How many of the people in Beijing who were close to those two families are still intact?! Although His Highness took over the power of King Huan, those people have always been It's a piece of grass on the wall, vacillating, you know, the emperor knows it better."

Qin Qingyuan suddenly looked at Nan Lie, his eyes were full of astonishment, "Sir, you mean, father knows who follows this king?"

"Is there any king in the world? Your Highness, don't think too simply of your Majesty." Nan Lie smiled lightly, "Your Highness thinks that His Majesty doesn't like party disputes, then it is a big mistake. Only when the forces of all parties check and balance each other can the imperial power Stable. King Huan and the Chu family will perish, but because His Majesty can no longer control them."

In this way, the reason why the father allowed him to grow up is to check and balance other people? !Thinking back to the past, all of them confirmed this point. Qin Qingyuan's complexion changed, and he was covered in cold sweat at some point. He knew better than anyone what happened to King Huan back then, so he has been warning himself not to repeat the same mistakes all these years. It turned out that he was too weak, and he might not satisfy his father.

"Sir, what do you think this king should do now? Li Qu was the one who sued Chu Yi for treason back then, and this king doesn't want to get involved with him." Qin Qingyuan set his sights on Nan Lie. Now that the situation is unclear, he Can't go wrong.

Nan Lie looked at the handsome man in front of him, and smiled suddenly, "Your Highness is wrong, it is precisely because you used to be good friends with King Huan, you are also related to the Chu family, and you are wise, so the emperor will entrust this case to you deal with."

"What do you mean, sir?" Qin Qingyuan looked at Nan Lie suspiciously.

Nan Lie looked at Qin Qingyuan meaningfully, "Because in the eyes of the world, you are the least likely person to collude with Li Qu, and the truth you found out is the most credible."

Qin Qingyuan looked at Nan Lie in shock, "Mr. means..."

Nan Lie didn't answer his words, took a sip from the teacup on the table, and smiled suddenly, "Your Highness's tea should be the new tea of ​​this year. It seems that His Highness holds a lot of weight in His Majesty's heart."

As soon as the new tea came out, they all paid tribute to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Those who can drink the new tea will naturally be valued and rewarded by His Majesty.

When Qin Qingyuan heard the words, he came back to his senses, and the expression on his face increased a little. If he said who the prince has the most sacred heart, if he denies it, no one would dare to accept it.

"If Mister likes it, I will send all the rest to Mister." Qin Qingyuan said with a smile, his confusion was relieved, and his mood improved a lot.

Nan Lie shook his head, "I'm not in good health, I can't drink too much tea, just drink it once in a while, thank you Your Highness for your kindness."

Qin Qingyuan knew that Nan Lie was telling the truth, so he didn't force it, "It's quite cold at night, sir, go back and rest earlier."

Nan Lie put down the teacup, looked up at Qin Qingyuan, and smiled warmly, "It seems that Your Highness has already thought of a way to deal with King Jing?"

Qin Qingyuan was taken aback, and then said helplessly: "Nothing can be hidden from sir." The corner of his mouth curled up with a touch of treachery, "Qin Jingyuan has always acted meticulously, but he has a weakness, a fatal weakness, and this king can prepare for this day." long time."
