Chapter 624
In a hut in the woods.

"Zhaojun! Are you alright?" The two of them who survived the catastrophe finally had a chance to breathe. The man's lost left arm had been simply bandaged. He slightly opened his eyes and looked at the man in black next to him, "Prime Minister What about my lord?"

"Your Excellency still has to deal with matters in the palace, the Commander can rest assured to rest and recuperate here."

Yongwei's face was full of worry that did not fade away, "Why don't we run away immediately? What if His Royal Highness's people chase us..."

"Princess, don't worry, the Prime Minister has already arranged everything. His Royal Highness must have thought that we would escape overnight, so he decided to hide in the mountains for a few days, looking for a chance to send the two of you to a place where no one knows you. "The man in black explained patiently, and Yongwei finally felt relieved, they are lucky to have survived, and cherish every minute and every second with each other even more at this moment.

"Zhaojun..."

"Wei'er, it's fine, trust the prime minister."

However, he remembered those brothers who sacrificed for him, and the guilt in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.

There was a tense atmosphere in the Chen Kingdom Palace in the early morning. Everyone seemed to be talking about the accident last night. The fourth princess actually had an affair with the commander of the imperial army. A large amount of blood was washed on the palace all night, and now it has been sealed off to prevent anyone from approaching.

"His Royal Highness, a total of 49 corpses have been disposed of. Among them, 36 are imperial guards in the palace."

With a snap, Dongfang Xu coldly dropped the writing brush in his hand on the table, 36 people?His palace actually raised 36 traitors! "Arrest and interrogate all the other people who are closely related to the commander of the imperial army. I would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go!"

"Yes!"

"What about the other thirteen corpses?"

"Returning to Your Highness, the identities of the other 13 people are unknown."

Unidentified? !Could it be that Zhao Jun also colluded with other forces?It's just that Dongfang Xu couldn't figure out when this palace became a place where others could come in if they wanted to, and leave if they wanted to.So he was sure that there must be other internal agents in the palace!

If he just eats inside and out, he doesn't have to worry so much. Dongfang Xu thinks the most dreadful thing is whether there are spies from other countries in the palace.At this time, he thought of a person, the one who had been silently staying in the palace and cooperating with him.

In the deserted woods.

"Your Highness finally remembered." The teasing voice came from the corner, Dongfang Xu turned around, and saw the man in the black cloak slowly coming out.

"Recently, the hall is busy managing the harem, is there any movement on Xiao Huang's side?"

The man lifted off the black hat, revealing the three-dimensional facial features with a rather exotic charm. Lan Xiangliang smiled slightly, "I have always been dedicated to my duties, and regularly report every bit of the prince to Emperor Xiao."

Since Lan Xiangliang had contact with Dongfang Xu last time, the two reached an agreement to deal with Xiao Yichen together. He has been staying in the Queen Mother's Palace as a spy, and every once in a while he will report what happened in the palace back to the Kingdom of Yi. This is why Xiao Yichen One of the important reasons for being able to keep abreast of the dynamics in the Chen Kingdom Palace at all times.

Dongfang Xu snorted coldly, as if he was not at all worried that Lan Xiangliang would betray him.

"His Royal Highness has a lot of affairs, and the queen mother of your country has been seriously ill for a long time. Doesn't His Royal Highness go to see it?"

Since Emperor Chen died of illness, the queen mother was deeply affected and was bedridden. Dongfang Xu only visited him a few times, but every time the queen mother asked him to make Du Yuanxiu the queen, as time passed, he stopped asking. I will report back on the recent situation of the Queen Mother.If the relationship with the queen is like this, let alone the queen mother?Dongfang Xu no longer wants to be bound by these people, and only wants to do what he thinks is right.

"Just do what you have to do."

Lan Xiangliang smiled, and said that the moon waxes and wanes, but the change of Prince Chen was beyond his expectation.However, he also appreciates the other party's gradually ruthless and decisive methods. Since he is the lord of Kingdom Chen, why should he be dictated by those women in the palace.Anyway, he doesn't care what the state of Chen becomes. What he cares about is when the prince of the state of Chen can help him complete his revenge plan!

"So this time, what orders does Your Highness have?"

"How much do you know about what happened in the palace last night?"

Lan Xiangliang raised his eyebrows slightly, but turned his back, "Your Highness is the lord of the palace. How can I know things that His Highness doesn't even know?" There was a bit of frivolity and joking in this tone, which made Dongfang Xu felt unhappy in his heart.

"Are you blaming the hall for withdrawing the order to attack Yi Kingdom?"

Lan Xiangliang didn't speak, how could he not mind?Obviously this is such an excellent opportunity right now, but the prince of Chen Kingdom gave up the opportunity to completely subvert Yi Kingdom for the sake of his son and daughter. There were several times when Lan Xiangliang wanted to leave Chen Kingdom and return to Yi Kingdom, and summoned his own people to come A sudden assassination!

But he knew that he had to be calm, otherwise his years of forbearance would be in vain.

"This hall hates Xiao Huang no less than you, so it doesn't matter if you let him live for a while. This hall wants to borrow Xiao Huang's power. Once the time is right, I will definitely give you a chance to take revenge!"

"Timing? What His Highness said is too profound, I don't understand." Obviously such a good opportunity was wasted by him!
Dongfang Xu's eyes sank, as if he didn't have much patience. "As soon as she comes back, this hall will definitely gather all its strength to fight Xiao Huang to the death!"

Lan Xiangliang naturally knew who the person he was talking about was useless, but now even if he regretted it, it was useless, because of the alliance with Prince Chen, he might have lost a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Now that the matter has come to an end, he can only choose to believe in this person .And Lan Xiangliang also has his own calculations, he pays close attention to the dynamics of Yi Kingdom and Chen Kingdom, knowing that Xiao Yichen would actually try to move the Lotus Kingdom because of that woman, he is really curious, what will happen to the Yi Kingdom under Xiao Yichen's tossing.

"What does the prince want to know?"

"In the palace, are there any other spies?"

"Your Highness is talking about the side that helped the fourth princess escape, right?" Lan Xiangliang said with an undisguised smile. He had watched a good show last night, and he didn't expect that this would happen in Chen Kingdom. Wonderful thing.A look of displeasure flashed across the other party's eyes, Lan Xiangliang shrugged his shoulders, "Chen Guo is full of talents, why don't you take a look, who has the ability to come and go freely in the palace?"

"you know?"

The man on the opposite side put on his hat again, "I can't afford to offend this man, but I believe His Highness will know about it sooner or later, so farewell!"

"you……"

Dongfang Xu gloomily looked at the man who left, recalling what Lan Xiangliang said just now, he has the ability to come and go freely in the palace without being discovered by others...

Something flashed through his mind, could it be...

A figure slowly shuttled in the corridor. The handsome man had a calm expression on his face, as if he was not worried about what would happen next.

"Report to His Royal Highness, the Prime Minister is here."

"Let him in."

The door opened slowly with a creak, Ji Jin lifted the hem of his clothes and stepped in, while Dongfang Xu raised his eyes quietly, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"The prime minister seems to be very busy recently."

"Your Highness is worrying too much, I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do."

"A matter of duty?" Dongfang Xu stood up slowly, looking at the hidden face in front of him, Lan Xiangliang's words already reminded him, when Concubine Mei rebelled and the palace was heavily guarded, who brought Seeing that he sneaked into the palace without anyone noticing.Isn't it the person in front of you?At that time, he still had the thought for a moment that if this prime minister was his enemy, he might not be easy to deal with.

It never occurred to me that this moment could really happen.

"Does the affairs of the adults also include the harem of the main hall?"

Ji Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, and naturally heard the meaning of Dongfang Xu's words. He didn't expect the prince to find himself so quickly, but so what, it just made what he thought happened earlier.

"Please make it clear, Your Highness."

Dongfang Xu looked deeply at the person in front of him, feeling more and more difficult to guess.If the prime minister really helped the fourth princess escape, what good would it do him?This person never cared about things that had nothing to do with him, and the fourth princess and the commander had no friendship with him. Why did he do this?
Dongfang Xu began to doubt his speculation, but apart from Ji Jin, he couldn't think of anyone else with such great ability.

"Here in this hall, there are thirteen corpses of unknown origin. I believe that with the prime minister's ability, he will definitely find out the truth for this hall, right?"

Ji Jin's face didn't change in the slightest, he just saluted slightly, "Your Majesty obeys."

And the other end.

"Brother Wang, I won't go."

Tie Zhen Yunwei looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, "Zi Wei, you are..."

"It's just a woman, so let's go if you leave. Is it true that Brother Wang is going to disregard the alliance between Tiezhen and Chen Kingdom for the sake of that fourth princess?"

"Didn't you see last night? The Crown Prince of Chen Kingdom is such a person, what good is it for us Tiezhen to form an alliance with such a Chen Kingdom!" Tie Zhen Yunwei felt that a person who could not be kind to his imperial sister, To form an alliance with him is undoubtedly seeking skin from a tiger.

"Ziwei doesn't think His Highness the Crown Prince has done anything wrong. Before, a concubine of the father had an affair with someone else. Didn't he also be thrown into the cows and trampled to death by the father?!"

Tie Zhen Yunwei frowned, "Are these two things the same?!"

"Why is it different?! Besides, brother Wang hates the prince, but Ziwei likes him!"

What? !Tiezhen Yunwei looked at the woman with a serious face, "You, you really..." I really don't understand how his sister Wang would like such a person. Apart from his handsome appearance, he found that Prince Chen is really ruthless. If you really marry with your relatives, there is no guarantee that the two countries can form a friendly alliance.
