The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 990 The Uncle Prince Returns! (1)
After Chu Qiyan entered, she still seemed to feel uneasy. She sat down at the table, waved her right hand, and swung the set of tea sets on the table far away, hitting the wall from a long distance. The whole room was splashed with broken pieces. Porcelain.

Seeing this, Li Lin had no choice but to give up his mind for the time being. He only called an attendant to go outside the courtyard, asked carefully about what happened at the gate before, and then left in a hurry.

When he came back, it was already an hour later.

At that time, no one dared to enter Chu Qiyan's room, the door was wide open, and he was still sitting at the table with a cold face and motionless, maintaining the same posture from before.

Li Lin was worried, so he went in bravely and said, "My son—"

Before the words finished, Chu Qiyan interrupted in a cold voice, "How is it?" But it was in a determined tone.

"The subordinate personally led someone to interrogate. The girl said that she received a secret order a few days ago, telling her to act according to circumstances. Then last night, Chu Yuexin suddenly decided to leave Beijing and go to Huangzhuang to recuperate. She sent the news, and then someone gave it to her." She instructed." Li Lin said, he was cautious when speaking, and he didn't even dare to look at the expression on Chu Qiyan's face.

Chu Qiyan stared at the ground expressionlessly, finally closed her eyes fiercely, and said with a sneer, "So—this is why Chu Xunyang planted spies in among my cronies?"

If not, even though the other party could have intercepted the message sent by Bi Shui and inferred Bi Shui's identity, it was absolutely impossible for him to issue orders that Bi Shui believed in again and again in his name.

"This subordinate has already tried to ask someone to investigate." Li Lindao, the look of resentment in his eyes was very obvious, he paused every word, and gritted his teeth.

It was the first time for Chu Qiyan to feel such a huge setback, and she couldn't completely calm down until now.

Li Lin endured for a while, and tried to speak again: "My lord, since the matter has already happened, let's let it go first. The scene that Chu Xunyang directed and acted this time is really ruthless. Wenkang's death was not caused by the crown prince, but I am afraid that I will bear some grudges against you, this situation is very unfavorable to us, we must find a way to solve it."

"She just wants to see me and the Pingguo government kill each other, but——she thinks highly of Zheng Duo too much!" Chu Qiyan said coldly, there was always boiling anger in her eyes, pressing on her. One hand on the table, the fingers clenched into a fist, the veins on the back of the hand were throbbing.

Li Lin didn't know how to take over, so he just waited beside him with a worried face.

After a while, Chu Qiyan suddenly said, "What did Tuoba Huai'an say? How is he preparing?"

Li Lin's spirit was shaken, and he quickly said: "Don't worry, my son, Tuoba Huai'an is not someone who will wait for nothing. He has planned with you for a long time, and he will go all out and will not miss it."

Although Mobei is located in a remote place, the 20 cavalry troops are brave and good at fighting, and they must not be underestimated.

Others may be kept in the dark, but he and Chu Xunyang brothers and sisters know each other well——

This is the trump card that Chu Qiyan holds in his hand.

If it weren't for fear of his alliance with Tuoba Huai'an, it would be no wonder that Chu Xunyang's brother and sister would have kept him until today.

Chu Qiyan thought about it, but the irritability in her heart did not dissipate, and she thought for a moment and said: "There is Zheng Duo, send me another letter and tell him that Zheng Wenkang's matter is a foregone conclusion, which is more important? , what to do is the most beneficial for Zheng's family, let him decide for himself. Right now, time is running out!"

Taking advantage of the fact that Chu Yi'an and his son are not in the capital now, Chu Xunyang has no authority to execute the members of the Zheng family——

This is Zheng Duo's only chance.

If he can make it in time, there is still a glimmer of hope to keep his family.

otherwise--

Once Chu Yi'an and his son return to court, it will be too late.

"Yes!" Li Lin agreed, and hurried down to make arrangements without delay.

In the next few days, the sky above the capital city was shrouded in an extremely depressing and tense atmosphere. The people were cautious, and the officials were also cautious. Increased several times the usual guards to strictly restrict the passing people and passers-by.

And only on the second night when Zheng Jiamou's rebellion broke out, another big battle suddenly broke out in the land of Beijiang. , A great blow to the defenders stationed there.

It was five days after the news was sent back to the capital, Chu Qiyan finally showed the first smile in days when she looked at the secret letter.

Mobei and Beijiang, one is active between the continuous mountains in the northeast, and the other occupies a large piece of fertile grassland in the northwest. The combination of these two parties is equivalent to building a barrier in the north of the territory of Xiyue, blocking the whole thing. It's okay if they don't move, otherwise once they join forces and attack southward——

That's definitely not easy to deal with.

Chu Qiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out the fire folder and burned the secret letter. At this moment, Li Lin hurried over with the news, and said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, Duke Ping raised an army. On the way back to Beijing, he was killed People were assassinated."

The fire was volatile, falling on Chu Qiyan's face, making his stern face look a bit weird.

He frowned, paused for a moment, then slowly raised his head to look at Li Lin and said, "What?"

"Zheng Duo was stabbed to death." Li Lindao, gasping for air hissingly, "He got the news that the prince asked someone to deliver it, and he really couldn't bear it, so he immediately mobilized the troops in his hands and turned back. The capital, but halfway, was assassinated by an assassin."

Zheng Duo was assassinated?
Now the focus of everyone's attention is on Beijiang, who has the energy to take care of his affairs?

"Do you know who did it?" Chu Qiyan asked after calming down.

"I didn't catch the assassin, but when his accident happened, the crowd below must have no leader, and they must all be messed up. It should be hopeless." Li Lindao, with a look of anxiety on his face, "This matter-it should come from Chu Xunyang's plan." hand, right?"

Chu Qiyan's face was condensed, and she only pursed the corners of her lips vigorously, noncommittal.

"The manpower in Duke Pingguo's hands is limited. The son uses him just to incite the hearts of the people, and combined with the changes in the northern war to shake the hearts of the subjects. Although he is not enough to accomplish things, but he was killed. It's really hateful." The more Li Lin thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and said angrily.

Chu Qiyan didn't say a word, but his eyes were heavy, and after a while, he suddenly paused and said: "Is there any updated news from Beijiang?"

Li Lin's thoughts were pulled back, and he shook his head solemnly, "Not yet, this letter has already been sent back as fast as possible. By the way, what did the letter say? Things— —Is it going well?"
