Rank One Princess Douxian Wang: Phoenix Palace Brocade

Chapter 561: Dark Clouds Overcome the City
Xu Jiatong just smiled and said nothing, Du Xiang didn't know about her life experience, and she didn't intend to tell him.But even from Du Shi's point of view, Du Xiang's relatives only existed faintly in the past. In many cases, instead of becoming Du Shi's reliance, they became the laughing stock of her being ridiculed by others.

"With the Du family as your support, why don't you seem unhappy?" Du Xiang was scheming, he waited for Xu Jiatong to show expectation, so that he could raise conditions, but she always remained indifferent.

With the help of the Du family, who would not be tempted?I'm afraid even Zhao Yu couldn't be indifferent, and Xu Jiatong was no exception, but she would never show it in front of Du Xiang.Du Xiang wanted to increase the bargaining chip, why didn't she want to.

"My mother has a relationship with the Du family. That happened many years ago. You haven't mentioned it for so many years. It's hard to mention it, but it's now. What's the use of you bringing up your family relationship again? Now it's just We each use each other for our own use. I am a member of His Royal Highness Sheng, you have enmity with His Royal Highness Xiang because of Miss Du, we both have needs, so there is no need to go around in circles." Xu Jiatong looked at her with a smile, behind her was Zhao Yuanshen, It was Zhao Yu, and what Du Xiang wanted was their influence.

Du Xiang laughed, and then his expression became more and more serious: "Sure enough, he is a straightforward person. I haven't asked anyone for 20 years. This time is an exception. I have fought with the king for many years. It is said that I have enjoyed the wealth and honor of the entire dynasty, which is enviable, but what I am most proud of is the respect of the king. I am also doing my best to maintain the dignity of the king and the Datong Dynasty. I can bleed and lose my life , I can’t lose face. Although Fengqin is a little bit arrogant, she has no bad intentions. I think I have nothing against King Xiang, but he is plotting against me like this, plotting against my favorite jewel. How can I swallow this breath? ? Since they don't take me seriously, I won't follow their set either."

"With your words, Your Majesty and Your Highness are relieved. Your Majesty said that King Xiang has done such a disgraceful thing. After the matter is completed, I will let you deal with it. But the Majesty also asked me to ask , besides this one, do you have anything else you want?" Xu Jiatong smiled.

She asked so directly because she wanted to test Du Xiang's reaction. If a person like him still had ambitions, it must be a huge ambition, and it was hard not to reveal it.The royal family of Datong couldn't bear such a thing as refusing a tiger to welcome a wolf, and Zhao Yu would never agree.

If Du Xiang's appetite is too big, they may not be able to reach such a deal, or they may reach it, but after it is done, the first thing they have to do is to extinguish Du Xiang, a team that cannot be underestimated. power.

Having been a minister for many years, and his status is so stable, Du Xiang is not a person who knows people. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "After the matter is completed, I only want to be rich and honor to support the Du family, and I will retire and return to my hometown. Of course, If His Royal Highness King Sheng ascends the Great Treasure, if there is a need for me, I will be obliged."

Xu Jiatong saluted respectfully, and said softly and hard: "You are a smart person, and you know how to make wealth last forever, unlike some people who get rich and have no life to enjoy."

"Old man, I have always known the way to be a minister, so it is settled like this. Dare I ask Xu Sizhi, does the king want me to send someone to pick up His Highness, or do you have other arrangements?" Du Xiang asked in a low voice.

Xu Jiatong said: "Your Highness, the king has his own arrangements. What you need to do now is to keep the Phoenix Palace."

As the king of Datong, Zhao Yu has his own strategy for controlling the royal power. Although there are forces such as the Wu family, Wang family, and Ma family hindering him, he is still generally under his control.Had it not been for the sudden outbreak of the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, many things had come together again, and the situation would not have become what it is today.

The Ma family has soldiers, the Wang family has people, and the Du family controls the imperial army and the power line of the Western Capital. It is of little use for Du Xiang to send people to the northern border. Leaving him to defend in the Western Capital allows Zhao Yuanshen to have a stable rear.

After the sunset, the Phoenix Palace gradually calmed down. Martial law had been imposed in the inner palace, and manpower was increased both in the open and in the dark. Zhao Yu also sent more manpower in the dark at Lihuang Palace. Everything seemed to be hidden under the calm sea. .

Xu Jiatong brought the soup and went in, but Eunuch Yi took the initiative to retreat and went outside to watch.Xu Jiatong went forward, first served Zhao Yu's medicine, and saw that he had used it up, then said: "There are sixty guards in armor in the Lihuang Palace, all of whom are the elite of His Highness King Xiang, who came in among the imperial army. Du The prime minister has already pulled out the nails in the imperial army, but...His Royal Highness seems to have mobilized manpower, ready to rush into the palace at any time."

"Where's Yuan Shen's people?" Zhao Yu's spirit was not very good, but there was always a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The people who came back from King Sheng's Army have been placed in the Forbidden Army. They have all seen blood, and they are under the command of Captain Du." Xu Jiatong couldn't help laughing. Zhao Yuanshen still cared about them in the dangerous northern border.

After being separated from him for so long, she thought about him all the time, but she never felt that he was far away from her. When she needed him most, he was always with her.Even the smallest things, which she hadn't thought of, he thought of for her.

Those 100 people had just seen blood on the battlefield, and they only protected Zhao Yu and her, and escorted them from the secret road to Juexiao Temple, the national temple where the royal family worships, at critical times.

"All ready?" Zhao Yu asked, not like asking, but confirming an answer.

"Yes, everything is ready, but are you sure you want me to tell His Highness King Xiang and Your Majesty the truth?" Xu Jiatong didn't think it was necessary to tell them everything now.

Zhao Yu said: "The queen also regarded you as a woman, it is up to you to decide whether to tell them the truth."

Xu Jiatong responded softly, her hearing was always good, there was already a strange sound faintly in the palace, she just sat quietly with Zhao Yu like that, gradually the killing noises outside shook the sky.

The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of armor colliding, Du Duwei's order, and the faint shout of Du Xiang outside the main hall...Zhao Yu's spirit is not good, and he falls asleep for more than half of an hour. When he opened his eyes, he just stared blankly at the closed door, and when Xu Jiatong reported to him the situation outside, he just nodded vaguely.

"What if they come in?" Zhao Yu suddenly asked quietly.

"If they want to offend you, they must step on the corpse of my minister." Xu Jiatong said firmly.

There are no eggs under the nest, and her lips are dead and her teeth are cold. She must do her best to protect Zhao Yu's safety, not only because he is the king of Datong, but also because he is Zhao Yuanshen's beloved father.

Zhao Yu shook his head: "Silly boy, you still have a long way to go, go hide in the secret path first. At this time, don't be afraid, don't be ashamed..."
