The Concubine's Rebirth: The Poisoned Wife Does Not Bow Down

Chapter 520: The Chaos Has Been Set 04
"The world is chess, and the emperor holds his own."

Seeing that Princess Rong and himself thought of the same thing, Nie Zhaoyang nodded, and told what he guessed frankly, "Perhaps, in the emperor's game of chess, daddy is not a simple chess piece."

"You mean?"

Princess Rong raised her hand to cover her chest, her eyes revealed an inexplicable look of surprise.

"If he didn't obey the emperor's order, how could dad confuse Prince Rui so easily and lure him into the urn?"

Nie Zhaoyang said softly, but the eyes that are bright from both sides are like pearls covered with dust at the moment, a little sad compared to the past.

"I think so too."

Seeing Nie Zhaoyang's conjecture, Princess Rong looked at Nie Zhaoyang with great admiration, her fingers involuntarily grasped Nie Zhaoyang tightly, feeling once again how great Nie Zhaoyang would be if it was her.

"That being the case, let's just wait quietly."

Nie Zhaoyang didn't struggle, and let Princess Rong hold his fingers tightly and smiled slightly.

Princess Rong nodded and looked at Nie Zhaoyang with a smile.

Nie Zhaoyang lowered his eyes slightly, and his eyes fell on the fingers that Princess Rong was holding tightly to him, feeling a sense of sadness in his heart.

If King Rong really deliberately lured Prince Rui into the capital under the Emperor's order, then now it seems that this trick is just a sleight of hand.

In this battle, as a subject, King Rong was not disloyal to the emperor, but as a husband, as a father, King Rong was too far behind.

He clearly knew the inside story, but he never disclosed to the family members of Prince Rong's mansion. He just sat and watched his righteous wife, Aunt Yue, whom he said he had loved for many years, and the safety of all the children in Prince Rong's mansion, just to fulfill the emperor's entrustment. .

Although he didn't know the identity of Mr. Li last night, who ordered them to take them and where to take them, but Nie Zhaoyang knew that such actions were clearly intended to use them as hostages. Threatening King Rong.

If Sun Ruoyu hadn't come in time last night, they would have been in danger.

If Sun Ruoyu hadn't come in time last night, I'm afraid that King Rong would rather be a loyal minister than go against the emperor's wishes for their kindness.

In silence, Nie Zhaoyang only felt sore eyes.

Hopefully, her guess is wrong.

That night, Nie Zhaoyang tossed and turned, and barely closed his eyes until the faint sound of the third watch came from outside the window.

By the early morning of the second day, a red carpet had been laid in front of the gate of Prince Rong's Mansion, with ribbons all over the sky, gongs and drums blaring, and laughter.

The expectation that Nie Zhaoyang had been secretly hoping for before had come to nothing.

A servant in the palace wore a palace uniform and held up a fan to open the way. King Rong came riding majesticly on a tall horse. Behind him were rewards from the palace that could hardly be seen at a glance, all kinds of antiques, treasures and jade articles. .

Just as Princess Rong and Nie Zhaoyang had guessed at the beginning, because of his extraordinary achievements in Prince Rui's rebellion, besides all the rewards, Prince Rong was additionally given the Great General Pingyuan, who regained the power of one hundred thousand troops.

Nie Zhaoyang and the others stood in front of the gate of King Rong's Mansion and waited for King Rong's triumphant return. Looking at the beaming faces in front of him and the proud King Rong sitting on horseback, Nie Zhaoyang's eyes drooped slightly. His expression was calm, but his heart sank again and again.
