You Wenjun didn't believe that Xiao Changying couldn't see the Crown Princess's thoughts, but he still turned a blind eye and was still deeply in love with the Crown Princess.
It is said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is destined to die young. Does he think that after His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dies young, the Crown Princess will be able to accept him
You Wenjun left Prince Lie's Mansion full of confusion and worry. Prince Jing's Mansion, which was connected to the back of Prince Lie's Mansion, was also silent.
Not only Xiao Changyan was there, but also King of Yan Xiao Changgeng was there.
"Eighth brother, do you want to..." Xiao Changgeng started, and Xiao Changyan understood what he was not saying.
"Thunderbolt struck out of nowhere, enemies swarmed from all sides, and we were surrounded from all directions..." Xiao Changyan stroked the ring on his thumb, "This is a good show, how can we miss you and me?"
If Emperor Youning was the one who least wanted Bu Shulin to return safely to southern Shu, then Xiao Changyan was the second least willing. This was because southern Shu was adjacent to Annan, and the largest military forces in the two places were in the hands of the two of them. Even if the military power of southern Shu returned to His Majesty's hands, it would be beneficial to him. But if it fell into Bu Shulin's hands, it would be like strangling his throat.
Bu Shulin was obviously Shen Xihe's man, and the alliance between Bu Shulin and Shen Xihe was the best choice. They were all kings of different surnames, just like him and his brothers. After he ascended to the throne, he had to keep one or two to show his benevolence and righteousness, to appease the court officials who supported others today, and let them all know that he was not a cruel or narrow-minded monarch, so that he could sit firmly on the throne.
When Shen Xihe holds great power in the future, he will have to show favoritism to the Shunan Palace so as to prevent the people in the northwest who follow the Shen family from feeling resentful. He and the Bu Palace are naturally in opposition.
"How will Eighth Brother respond?" Xiao Changgeng asked again.
"I am not confident no matter who I entrust this matter to. Can you go there in person, Fourteenth Brother?" Xiao Changyan's eyes fell on Xiao Changgeng.
It is a serious crime for the prince to leave the capital without permission. Xiao Changyan will naturally cover up for Xiao Changgeng in Kyoto, but if something goes wrong, it will be all Xiao Changgeng's fault and has nothing to do with Xiao Changyan.
After all, they are not from the same mother, and are completely different from the brothers Xiao Changying and Xiao Changqing.
Xiao Changgeng did not hesitate for a moment, but smiled calmly: "Eighth Brother trusts me so much, how can I let him down?"
Is it dangerous? Of course it is dangerous.
But how can you get a tiger cub without risking it? Xiao Changyan wanted him to go, this was a great opportunity to infiltrate Xiao Changyan's shadow guards, and he was also convinced that Xiao Changyan was not testing him. After all, he had saved Xiao Changyan's life. If he was killed by Xiao Changyan at this time, Xiao Changyan's path to becoming an emperor would be almost over. How could his followers dare to be loyal to him
Xiao Changgeng thought that he might have to face off against his ninth brother.
Xiao Changgeng could guess that Xiao Changying would go, so how could Xiao Huayong not guess it? Moreover, Xiao Changying escorted Shen Xihe for thousands of miles on her trip to the northwest, and this happened right under his nose.
Therefore, before Xiao Changying left the capital, he received the news. He was silent for a moment and then told Tian Yuan, "Keep an eye on him and make sure he comes back alive."
If Xiao Changying died, he would not be able to cover up what he had done.
Shen Xihe is an extremely rational and indifferent person. If Xiao Changying came back alive, she would not be moved at all even if she knew it. As she herself said, whether others treat her well or not is not what she asks for, and she will never be moved by it.
