There is only a little more than a day before the banquet.
Early in the morning, many low-key Qingwei carriages drove out of the most tidy official courtyard, circled the city, and ran out of the city.
In the courtyard of the King of Chu, the elites of the King of Chu who had accumulated in Shangjing for many years were gathered.
These people were drinking tea and looking at each other, but they felt that compared to the past, the people in the hall were sparse and a little scattered.
The faction of the King of Chu is like a potted plant that forgot to take back the house. The prince was battered by a gust of wind and torrential rain during this period of time, knocking it to pieces.
There is also the reason why the second prince came first. Many old ministers just wanted to protect the orthodox prince's succession, and did not disturb the hearts of the ministers and thieves. The second emperor fell, and 20% disappeared.
In addition, the uneasy Feng Yuexian from the Feng family...
Thinking of this, everyone has heart palpitations and headaches, and they don't want to think about it at all.
What do you need most to achieve great things? The Feng family didn't like to tear up their mouths with them. When it came time to fight, no one would think that the Northwest Wolf was a vegetarian.
- Coupled with Feng Yunyi on the southern side of Yunnan, it is really frustrating.
Guo Su, the left servant of the Ministry of War, was one of them. In the past, he and the minister of the Ministry of War worked together for the King of Chu. It was the secret line that the King of Chu had planned for a long time and successfully planted among the generals.
But more than a month ago, the Minister of War was caught in the wrong place, and Guo Su was frightened. He was afraid that the next one would be himself, and he didn't dare to let out the air above the court, for fear that the prince had missed him and remembered it again.
These days have been such a sleepless night, and eating meat is not fragrant. After dozens of days of physical and mental torture, Guo Su only felt that the East Palace was unfathomable, and an indescribable feeling of awe arose.
Hearing about the invitation from the King of Chu today, he hesitated for a moment. To be honest, he didn't want to come, but he didn't dare not to come, so he had to come over and listen to what the King of Chu had to say.
I thought that the King of Chu was holding a mobilization meeting to boost morale, and then arrange for it to run on the East Palace at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
When the King of Chu spoke out the content of the meeting with a sad expression on his face, the tea cover in Guo Su's hand fell onto the tea bowl with a bang.
Prince is dead
Prince Donggong is a princess in disguise?
The King of Chu couldn't bear the emperor being deceived and wanted to tell the emperor the truth at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet? ?
The King of Chu's voice fell, and the hall was silent. There was no second voice for a long time. The expressions on everyone's faces were very similar, and they were uncertain.
In the silence, Li Zi stood up first and handed over to Hong said:
"The princess committed the crime of deceiving the king, but fortunately, the prince brought things right, this is the blessing of Dali!"
"This king is extremely heartbroken... But hey, alas."
The King of Chu sighed, his eyes wandering around the hall:
"At that time, you will have to work on everyone, and persuade the emperor more."
The King of Chu tried his best to control his tone and face so as not to make himself too proud, but the bright light in his eyes and the excitement in his words couldn't hide it.
Guo Su and the person beside him looked at each other, but he didn't recover until now.
However, those who knew the opportunity stood up to show their loyalty, and their faces were beaming, and they were about to say "Congratulations to the king for overthrowing the East Palace" to the King of Chu.
That's right, this situation, isn't it right? The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way, and there are still dark flowers in the village. I thought that the faction building would collapse, but as soon as the East Palace incident came out...
Guo Su, along with his colleagues, agreed to the banquet of the King of Chu's ministers. He knew rationally that the East Palace would be doomed this time, but his intuition was faintly clamoring that it would not be so smooth.
Do you want to have a banquet with the king of Chu
Guo Su agreed on the surface, but he felt that he still had to think about it after returning home.
- But he didn't want to, he didn't even have a chance to go home.
When Guo Su regained consciousness, he saw that he was in an unfamiliar wing, paralyzed on a pear-flower wood chair, and looked nothing.
And there is not even a servant by his side, only he is alone.
He froze and tried to stand up, but found himself unable to lift himself up.
Squeak.
The door of the wing room was pushed open, and before Guo Su could clarify the cause and effect, a woman in Tsing Yi walked in.
Guo Su immediately shouted:
"Who are you? Dare to attack the court officials!"
He shouted loudly, but he was actually looking at the woman carefully.
The woman has a beautiful face, is quiet and dignified, and has some tolerance.
But Guo Su felt that she was just a highly-used servant. The reason was very simple. After all, anyone who dared to do such a thing was a bit daring and could never be a woman—
Wait, it could really be a woman!
Guo Su's eyes were instantly mixed with a little panic.
He could think of it. Before he was caught here, he had just quietly returned from the Courtyard of the King of Chu, and what was discussed in the Courtyard was a plan for the two women—
Did Donggong get the news so soon
That Tsing Yi maid is drinking ice.
Drinking ice lightly said:
"I also ask the left servant to drink tea first, and His Royal Highness will arrive later."
Guo Su moved his hands, and touched the steaming tea, his hands trembled and his heart went cold.
There is no reason for him.
Donggong didn't hide his identity. Is this because he didn't plan to let him go out alive at all, or even if he shouted outside, Donggong wouldn't be afraid
The servant maid in Tsing Yi turned and left, covering the wing.
Only then did Guo Su take a deep breath, and in the dead silence, he fell into deep thought.
While Guo Su was hanging out, Feng Yuexian was in another wing, slowly wiping the dagger in his hand.
In addition to drinking snow in the room, the other person is Zhu Qiu, the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple.
Under the command of Feng Chenyi, the Dali Temple has always been under the control of the Feng family, but only one Zhu Qiu was left uncleaned. "Family closure".
Today is the first time Feng Yuexian has shown his fangs to Zhu Qiu.
Zhu Qiu knelt down on the ground and did not dare to lift his eyes. From his angle, he could only see the corner of Feng Yuexian's crimson skirt.
It is clearly a very charming color, but in his eyes, it has a bloody aura, which is extremely intimidating.
How can there be such a woman in the world!
"...Master Zhu, have you ever figured it out?"
The cold and charming voice floated down from above, which could be called soft, but it made Zhu Qiu shudder violently.
"This... You Kings of Hell are fighting, I... I'm just a little devil. I beg Your Highness to let me go. You and the King of Chu, I can't afford to offend you!"
"The adults are joking."
Feng Yuexian's voice was light, wrapped in a strange feeling that he couldn't tell the truth, like Di Tianyin, misty and indifferent, looking down at all beings.
"If it wasn't for this palace to 'invite' your lord to this place, you would have spared no effort in offending the eastern palace at the banquet of the ministers the day after tomorrow."
Zhu Qiu's forehead broke out with a pea-sized cold sweat:
"I dare not, I dare not! Please, Your Highness—"
Seeing something intruding into his field of vision, Zhu Qiu glanced at it, and the words in his mouth stopped abruptly.
What floated down this time was the veil Feng Yuexian wiped off the dagger.
The white ice veil was soaked in a large area of scarlet blood, which was shocking.
Being so close, he wiped Zhu Qiu's nose and landed lightly on the ground.
He could even smell the breath that was unique to blood, pouring straight into his nostrils, causing him to suffocate.
"Master Zhu also knows that this palace is from the general's mansion, and when solving problems, it is different from your Hanlin background."
"But the crown prince—no, it's the princess. The princess is a talented person. She persuaded Ben Gong, saying that you all came from a scholar, so you naturally understand the truth."
After hearing a few words, Zhu Qiu's heart went up and down, swaying non-stop, nowhere, only more and more cold sweat.
"If Lord Zhu insists on pretending to be stupid, today..."
As for Fengyue's gossip, it stopped, Zhu Qiu's mind was tense, and then he heard the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the void.
Just listening to it, it seems that you can see the sharp blade body and the cold light at the tip of the blade.
His knees softened, and his spine was no longer straight.
Feng Yuexian held a knife in his hand and looked down at Zhu Qiu.
It is precisely because the civil servants are full of character and self-confessed that the wind is bright and the moon is bright, and they have never even killed a chicken on weekdays, so they are so easy to scare.
Feng Yuexian watched from the sidelines, seeing Zhu Qiu shaking into a sieve, not knowing how many endings he had been tortured to death for, he said eloquently:
"You don't need to panic, Ben Gong said, the princess cherishes talents."
"In the future, Lord Zhu will take care of the princess and take good care of it."
If Feng Yuexian had said this at the very beginning, Zhu Qiu probably still had the confidence to scold him back, but at this moment, how could he dare to say a word!
"Definitely... I will definitely live up to the expectations of you and the princess."
After solving Zhu Qiu and ordering him to be sent away, Feng Yuexian turned to see the next one.
Time is pressing, although the group of ministers banquets only entertain officials of the fourth rank and above, but there are fifty or sixty people in all places.
Among them, the King of Chu explained that there were as many as ten people who cooperated with him today, and Feng Yuexian wanted to "see" them all over the past two days.
And Zhu Qiu and Guo Su are the beginning.
Guo Su was contemplating in the wing room, when suddenly, the door was opened from the outside, and bright sunlight crossed the threshold and entered the dark wing room.
It was a woman with an unrivaled appearance that was difficult to describe.
The maid in Tsing Yi, who had looked pretty good before, stood behind her and suddenly seemed extremely ordinary.
Standing here, she will snatch all the grace and splendor, and she will be astonished.
The head, the crescent eyebrow, the ice muscle, the jade bone.
Guo Su almost forgot about the situation at this time and stared blankly.
After the woman glanced at him coldly, he drenched his head like ice water, and then he woke up.
Guo Su hesitated:
"Yes... Her Royal Highness?"
"Master Guo is quick-witted." Feng Yuexian boasted indifferently.
The prince is already weak enough, so naturally the little princess will not be so healthy. If it is not a prince, who else could it be
Guo Su guessed right, but he didn't mean to be happy, and the root of his tongue was as bitter as Huanglian.
Looking at it again at this time, this is a stunning beauty, and it is almost the same as asking for life.
Feng Yue sat idle in the upper position. She recalled Guo Su's information in her hands, her brows were still, and she opened her lips.
During these two days, Feng Yuexian saw all the people who entered the Chu King's Courtyard, except for the Chu King and Li Zi.
Either coercion or inducement.
People always have weaknesses and always have plans.
Moreover, there are three or five people like Guo Su, who have no great ambitions in life. They don’t need to talk too much about Feng Yuexian. There is a bit of a wall grass meaning.
In addition, in addition to the troubles from the King of Chu, they also have to give their own people a thorough understanding and prepare for it.
After Feng Yuexian told Feng Chenyi and several uncles, they were stunned, and their faces were filled with "No wonder you are willing to marry, you are not married to the prince at all, but to the power".
Feng Yuexian was too lazy to explain her relationship to them, she was very busy.
On the night she decided to pass this level, she handed a secret letter to the northwest border.
Although the old general Feng has retired, the border gate is the world of the king of the northwest and the Feng family army.
The old emperor was old and could no longer restrain him. He could only turn a blind eye. Fortunately, King Li and the Feng family had little intention of taking the throne.
If necessary, Feng Yuexian wouldn't mind letting the Feng Family Army loosen its muscles and bones, and the beasts would often doze off, but he also had to stand up and walk around to intimidate the Quartet.
More than a day after the letter was delivered, Feng Yuexian was called home by his father.
When she arrived, Feng Yong was teasing the parrot and only asked her daughter a few words:
"You and the princess, who is in charge?"
Feng Yuexian replied simply: "She is a princess."
"Are you going to help her ascend to the throne?"
"Yes."
Feng Yong sighed: "Dali never had an empress."
Feng Yuexian's brows did not move, and her voice was quiet:
"There will be."
