The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 392 Chu Qiyan (2)
The two looked at each other, and Chu Xunyang was noncommittal.

Zheng Yan came out from the door and saw the two standing at the door looking at each other, she was confused and asked: "Cousin, Princess, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, get in the car, the Princess and I will follow on horseback." Chu Qiyan said.

As soon as he raised his hand, Li Lin had already handed him the whip.

Zheng Yan's eyes turned between the two, but she didn't find any signs. Although she felt strange in her heart, but at this time she was most concerned about other things, so she obediently got into the car.

Chu Qiyan's attitude is here, it seems that she is not ready to compromise.

Chu Xunyang refused to give in again, and the two were in a stalemate for a while. Finally, Chu Xunyang looked sideways and nodded to Light Green.

Light Green gave her the mount and jumped onto the shaft by herself.

A group of people rode out of the alley, Chu Qiyan and Chu Xunyang walked in front, and the two carriages of the East Palace and Pingguo Palace followed behind, and the guards consciously avoided a certain distance.

"Do you have something to tell me?" Chu Xunyang asked proactively.

Chu Qiyan's expression was indifferent, but he just looked at the road ahead without squinting: "Is the reversal of the war situation in northern Xinjiang the work of your East Palace or Lord Yanling?"

He asked directly, in fact, it was no longer an inquiry, but more precisely, he was just asking for confirmation, as if he had already predicted that the matter would be related to them.

Chu Xunyang couldn't help but glanced sideways at him, "Why do you see that?"

"It seems that I haven't heard from Su Yi for a while." Chu Qiyan said, turning her head to look at her, and said with a cold expression: "There is a lot of grudges between you and Su Lin. From your character, you should have no reconciliation. It is possible for him to clear up his previous suspicions. If such an enemy is eliminated the moment he is at ease, if there is no reason for you to have to wait, you should have ended up in the courtroom of Dali Temple last time. Him?"

Others may not be able to see it, but as both parties involved, Chu Qiyan and Chu Xunyang are very sure that it was indeed Chu Xunyang who deliberately released the water that time to avoid Su Lin's disaster.

"Why do you keep him? It's nothing more than to keep him temporarily occupying the position of Prince Nanhe." Chu Qiyan said to herself, and continued without waiting for Chu Xunyang to speak: "I have already checked. A talented staff member suddenly appeared in Xinjiang's army, and frequently offered advice to turn the tide of the battle. Although this person has been hiding behind the scenes and has no military rank, it will be a matter of time before he jumps out and takes control of the situation. Su Qingshui? His surname Su, if my prediction is correct, he should be the second son Su Yi who has always been at odds with the Su family and Su Lin and his son, right?"

When Su Yi went to the northern border, in order to avoid complications, he didn't take the route of the imperial court at all, but secretly went to work behind the scenes.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to secretly control the situation for so long.

But anyway, he can't hide it all the time, and it's not surprising that Chu Qiyan discovered his existence first.

"So what if it is? So what if it's not?" Even if he guessed everything right, Chu Xunyang just smiled noncommittally.

"No, it's just that I was negligent before, and I didn't realize that he is still a talent." Chu Qiyan pulled the corner of her mouth, but said with a smile, lowered her head and played with the horsewhip in her hand: "The war in northern Xinjiang suddenly reversed. First, someone Offered a plan to take advantage of the winter to burn down the pastures that the barbarians depended on for survival outside the pass, and took advantage of the fire to rob them and drive them out. Later, they fiddled with grain seeds in the border town of Huoshi. Now it is March, and they are plowing in spring The so-called seeds buried in the ground have all disappeared, and this incident has caused panic on a large scale."

The nomads outside the customs are brave, but no matter how brave they are, they have to eat and wear clothes. The weather conditions in northern Xinjiang are harsh, and when the temperature drops sharply in winter, large numbers of cattle and sheep often freeze to death. Some hardy crops will be planted occasionally for supplement.

However, Su Yi's move cut off both of their ways of survival. It was bound to cause panic, and then the imperial court's garrison in northern Xinjiang would take advantage of the opportunity, and they would naturally win very well.

This kind of trick can't be considered high-end, but no one dared to use it without authorization in the past. After all, only a few people committed evil, burned, killed, and looted in northern Xinjiang, but in this way, the survival of the entire nomadic people outside the pass was cut off.

Chu Xunyang knew what he was referring to, and he just smiled slightly when he heard the words: "The so-called soldiers never tire of deceit. Are there still few people in West Vietnam who have died in vain by those barbarians outside the pass all these years? At this time, you want to tell them Morality? Don’t you feel the benevolence of women?”

The rulers of the past have always emphasized the rule of the world with benevolence and virtue, so no matter how inhumane those barbarians are, the imperial court adheres to the purpose of a state of etiquette and wants to subdue and enlighten them, instead of resorting to the most extreme methods of force suppression.

These truths are actually very simple and superficial, but it is surprising and shocking for such an understatement to be spit out from the mouth of a green girl.

Chu Qiyan's expression was surprised, his lips moved, and then he laughed ironically, "Although it is said that soldiers are willing to cheat, but few people dare to use unscrupulous methods, you are not afraid that Su Yi will go to extremes, and in the end His Majesty will not Buy it?"

"Who will know until the last time?" Chu Xunyang asked back, raising his brows, but he didn't think so.

Chu Qiyan looked at her.

During this period of time, it was nothing new for him and Chu Qifeng to suppress each other's signs of parting in the court, but it was because of such a reason that he and Chu Xunyang confronted each other—

But I always felt a little surprised and awkward.

He looked at her.

The girl on the horseback has a bright and open expression, no matter how you look at it, it is not what a girl of her age should look like, but the edges and corners inside her are sharp, it is difficult for people not to guard against it.

Chu Qiyan smiled silently, then looked away from her face, and said lightly: "Do you think Su Yi is qualified to take over Changshun Palace?"

Chu Xunyang smiled, "That's his business, it has nothing to do with me!"

Since Chu Qiyan knew Su Yi's identity, in order to stop him, I'm afraid-

At this moment, he should have dispatched solid personnel to carry out the assassination plan.

But as for success or failure——

It wasn't that she was too inhumane to Su Yi, but that if the other party couldn't even handle this small scene, then it really wasn't worth her betting on him.

Her behavior has always been like this, whether it is the same for Su Yi or the former Tuoba Yunji, she will choose to form an alliance with them and give them a certain amount of protection and support, but she will not manipulate and intervene in every detail.

Seeing her look, Chu Qiyan couldn't help paying more attention to this matter.
