Chapter 242
In the Chen Kingdom Palace, above the night banquet.

The man who was as dazzling as a star raised his wine glass with a smile, and looked at the equally enthusiastic Emperor Chen who was on the main seat.

"I heard that Chen Kingdom's elite soldiers defeated Chaha's army. Here, I would like to respect Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha. Your Majesty Xiao Huang is being polite!" Chen Huang raised his head and drank the fine wine, "However, I heard that many years ago, His Majesty had a lot of friendship with King Nachaha. Wouldn't it be difficult for His Majesty to do so?"

Xiao Yichen could hear the temptation in Emperor Chen's tone, but he was disdainful in his heart.It was just a victory, did he really think that Yi Kingdom was afraid of him?
"Emperor Chen was joking. Then King Chaha invaded Kingdom Chen recklessly, and I just assisted his relatives. Now that Kingdom Chen is deterring the world, no one would dare to commit another crime in the short term."

This is also what Xiao Yichen hates. Seeing the great victory of Chen Kingdom, the other countries dare not attack again. Then King Chaha really failed to achieve success, but his family is famous for cavalry. I did not expect that even Chen Kingdom would be so Weak soldiers and horses can't resist it.

"I heard that the crown prince has made a batch of rare weapons this time. I wonder if His Majesty Chenhuang would like to let me have a look?"

Dongfang Xu on the side had a smile on his face, he knew that Xiao Huang would definitely have such a request.

"Emperor Xiao is polite. Since we are already an ally, Kingdom Chen will not be stingy. Come, bring that long spear!" Dongfang Xu gave an order, and someone immediately brought up the long spear that had already been prepared.

Xiao Yichen reached out to take it, tried it a little, and cast his eyes on Dongfang Xu's face opposite.

Prince Chen smiled as usual, but Xiao Yichen sneered in his heart, isn't this the batch of weapons he sent over that day?Show it to yourself intact?The Crown Prince of Chen Kingdom really saved his hand.

If it was really this long spear, then Chaha's army would not be defeated!
"Hahaha, it's really a good gun! Look at the workmanship, it doesn't look like an ordinary weapon."

Dongfang Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? His Majesty Xiao Huang has such a unique vision? You don't need to look to know that this long spear is not an ordinary weapon?" Does this Emperor Xiao know the mystery hidden in this gun?
A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, he kept thinking, what kind of character is that Yeluchun, could it be someone sent by Xiaohuang?
Xiao Yichen didn't expect Dongfang Xu to be so vigilant, so he smiled calmly, "This spear is lighter, and His Royal Highness must have improved it, of course it is not an ordinary weapon!"

He would lie for himself.Dongfang Xu didn't change his face. At this time, the gorgeous music turned, and two teams of maids in pink came forward, the soft ribbons fluttering in the wind. Dongfang Xu immediately looked at the woman in the center.

Xiyue was dressed in a goose-yellow playful dance dress, with a beautiful face and a charming smile, her graceful body swaying lightly with the music, casting her charming gaze at Dongfang Xu from time to time.

And that handsome man watched all this with a smile on his face.

Xiao Yichen paid attention to the interaction between the eyes of the two, the Prince of Chen Kingdom now has Xiyue in his eyes, it seems that Xiyue really succeeded in capturing Dongfang Xu's heart, and the medicine Yun Mei gave was really useful.

Turning to look at the dancing Xiyue again, the other party seemed to have noticed his gaze, and instantly met his gaze, with a hint of a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Yichen nodded in satisfaction, "My sister, has she often caused trouble for His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Dongfang Xu withdrew his gaze, then smiled, "No, Xiyue is reasonable, so why would she cause trouble for this hall?"

The pampering that could not be concealed in these words, and even the hostility on him just now, were completely subdued because of Xiyue at this time.

Xiao Yichen laughed, "My sister is unruly and willful, please bear with me, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Where is it that this hall is under the care of Xiyue!"

The queen above the throne saw the prince's perfect performance, and the smile on her face deepened.

Then his eyes fell on Xiyue's face. He still remembered that Princess Xiyue came to his palace yesterday, and asked him to show that he was very satisfied with her today, and to give Xiao Huang an explanation for her role. It seems that she really has the heart Go to Chen country.

In this way, Xiao Huang will trust her to handle the matter with confidence, and they will know Xiao Huang's purpose and conspiracy, and preemptively strike.

Xiao Yichen's eyes flashed, and he looked in a certain direction. For some reason, from the beginning just now, he felt that there seemed to be a line of sight on him that hadn't gone away for a long time, but he couldn't catch that line of sight among this group of people .

However, in the dark, a standing court lady lowered her head slightly, looking at her palace boots, and only slowly raised her head after Xiao Yichen retracted her patrolling gaze.

Yun Shu asked Dongfang Xu to prepare a set of maid's clothes for her, in order to observe Xiao Yichen's every move at this moment.

As long as he looks at her, Yunshu can guess what he wants to do next.

Then her eyes fell on Xiyue, looking at the woman who put her heart and soul into dancing, Yun Shu withdrew her thoughts.

She originally thought that she might be able to see Yun Mei this time, but she didn't expect that Xiao Yichen didn't bring her with her.

If in the past, he would bring himself with him every time he went on an envoy to other countries, has this habit changed now?Or, he was so worried about Yun Mei's safety that he refused to let her take the slightest risk.

It's really enviable.

Thinking of this, the corner of Yun Shu's mouth curled into a sneer.

The sound of the music gradually stopped, Xiyue put away her dancing posture, slowly stepped forward and gave a salute, then cast a shy look at Dongfang Xu and quietly retreated.

This move caused another chuckle from all around.

However, Yunshu noticed Xiao Yichen's eyes at this moment, a gust of cold wind passed behind her, Yunshu immediately turned her head in a flash of inspiration, but only saw a figure leaving quickly.

The man was dressed in the clothes of the Imperial Guard.

She and Dongfang Xu have been looking for Xiao Yichen's eyeliner in the palace, that is, the messenger Xiyue said, but they haven't been able to see his true face until now.

She remembered that look just now, every time Xiao Yichen made a move, there would be a deep smile in his eyes, that was his habitual expression.

Yun Shu immediately left with an excuse and followed the direction of that person just now.

Backstage, Xiyue, who was being changed by the maids in the court, finally calmed down her beating heart. She was afraid that the emperor would see her guilty conscience at a glance, and that the drama she acted would not be able to deceive the emperor's eyes. Now it seems that the emperor Already believed that he controlled the crown prince of Chen Kingdom.

Xiyue was fortunate that the prince was willing to accompany her to perform such a loving scene, otherwise, if the emperor found out that something was wrong, then she would definitely not end well.

However, Xiyue soon felt complacent, she was able to fool even the conceited emperor, it seemed that her decision was not wrong.Standing on the side of Kingdom Chen, helping the prince of Kingdom Chen ascend the throne, and then capturing Dongfang Xu's heart, in the future, he will be the queen of Kingdom Chen, and he will no longer have to be controlled by Emperor Xiao.

"Hurry up, the side concubine should be in a hurry." The two palace maids passing by outside made Xiyue regain her thoughts.

Her movements froze, and the maids beside her thought she had done something wrong, "Your Majesty?"

Something seemed to flash through Xiyue's mind, "Go down and let Xinlan come in."

"Yes, ma'am."

Xinlan quickly came in from the outside, at this time Xiyue was already dressed, with a little smile on her face.

"Your Majesty, do you have something to ask your slaves to do?"

A letter appeared in Xiyue's hand, "Take it to the crown prince and side concubine, and ask her to wait for me in the forest."

Woods?Xinlan knew where the forest Xiyuekou was talking about was the place where the envoy usually communicated with the empress.

The empress actually wants to lead the prince and side concubine into the forest, isn't she afraid of being discovered by the envoy?

However, Xinlan's doubts only disappeared for a moment, and for her, she only had to obey Xiyue's orders.

"The servant understands."

the other end.

On the stage of singing and dancing, Xiao Yichen suddenly held his forehead with embarrassment, Chenhuang noticed his strangeness, "Your Majesty Xiao, do you feel unwell?"

Xiao Yichen smiled helplessly, "The capacity for alcohol is getting worse and worse, after only a few drinks, I feel a little tired."

"Oh, it may be that this wine is a new product of the tribute, and His Majesty is not used to it. Come here, help Your Majesty go back to rest!"

Xiao Yichen waved his hand, "No need, it's good for me to go outside to sober up. There is no reason to rest so early on such a beautiful day."

"Hahaha, what His Majesty Xiao Huang said is true."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yichen stood up with the support of the maid, and left the venue under the gaze of everyone.

After not far away, "Help me over there."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The ladies in the palace led Xiao Yichen past the corner, they didn't want a gust of breeze to blow, carrying a trace of a different fragrance, the two ladies in the palace only felt that their eyes went dark, and then they lost consciousness.

Xiao Yichen held his breath until someone stepped forward to take the two maids away, then he took a deep breath.

In the deserted woods.

"How is the defense of the cold palace?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, your subordinates have prepared everything."

Xiao Yichen looked at the man in front of him and nodded slightly. "Does Prince Chen take the medicine given by Xiyue every day?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, according to my subordinates' observations, the current Crown Prince Chen is very obedient to Xiyue, and it seems that the medicine has already taken effect. I believe that in a few days, Crown Prince Chen will become Xiyue's puppet."

When Xiao Yichen heard this, a wide smile appeared on his face. He didn't mind helping a puppet to the throne. When the time comes, the Crown Prince of Chen Kingdom would obey his advice, wouldn't it be the same as offering the entire Chen Kingdom with both hands?Then he has nothing to worry about.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps.

"Light it up, it's really dark in here."

Xiao Yichen's eyes turned cold, and the man on the side looked surprised, and immediately looked at Xiao Yichen with self-blame, this has always been his secret place, how could someone break in by mistake.

The two immediately held their breath and calmed down, only to see two women coming out from behind the faint light, one of them was dressed up, it was Du Yuanxiu.

"That's the crown prince's side concubine." The man reported truthfully.

The crown prince's side concubine?Could it be that the prince discovered his whereabouts?No, if this is the case, this woman should be careful, how could she be discovered so easily by herself.

Du Yuanxiu didn't know that the danger was approaching, she looked for something on the ground with the dim light of the lantern, "It should be lost here."

The man's hand was already in his sleeve, holding a poisonous needle.

"The side concubine!"

At this time, a figure came running from the other side, "His Highness is looking for you everywhere, why are you here!"

Du Yuanxiu was immediately pulled by the maid and left in another direction.

The breeze blew past, and a familiar scent wafted in. Xiao Yichen's eyes narrowed, "Slow down!"

The man's hand immediately stopped there and did not dare to move.

Your Majesty is going to let the prince and side concubine go?I don't know if she heard their conversation, it's not like His Majesty's style at all.

However, Xiao Yichen didn't notice the man's eyes, his eyes fell on the familiar back of the court lady, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
