The night wind was silent, ruffling Xiao Changyan's black hair. He clenched the sword in his hand and asked, "Sixth brother, why? Why are you willing to join the East Palace?"
Xiao Changyan didn't understand, why did the Eastern Palace make people obey
Others may not understand that Xiao Changyu is a man of both civil and military talents, and is the best among the princes in every aspect, but he knows it!
Xiao Changyu was born in a humble family and lost his mother at a young age. In this palace that can tear the weak apart and devour them, Xiao Changyu could not grow up safely unless he was outstanding and made a name for himself.
Just as he said, he just happened to be there. He knew that the sea of fire was dangerous and that he would probably lose his life if he went in. But he had to go in because he was just a helpless prince who could be stepped on by anyone. He was not crowned a king until his death...
This does not mean that Xiao Changyu is not outstanding enough, so he saw through the royal family early on, which is why he left the palace without any reluctance.
Such a sober, wise and decisive Xiao Changyu also defected to the Eastern Palace. Today, he did not hesitate to cut off the last bit of brotherhood between them and drew his sword against him.
Not to mention that Xiao Changqing, whom he regarded as a strong rival, actually stood on the side of the prince. Otherwise, how could Shen Yueshan and his son end the dispute in Mobei so smoothly
"Yes... the prince gave you freedom?" Xiao Changyan couldn't help but guess. Although they were not as good as the Xiao Changqing brothers, they were still able to talk to each other. He knew a little about Xiao Changyu's thoughts.
"No." Xiao Changyu shook his head, "I owe the Crown Princess a life."
He and Bian Xianyi owed Shen Xihe a life. On that day, Bian Xianyi forced Shen Xihe to commit adultery and almost killed him. Shen Xihe could have taken Bian Xianyi's life afterwards, but she didn't.
She just asked him to take poison to offset the poison, which was actually a mercy, because if Ah Xi followed them, it would not be difficult to detoxify. He always remembered this favor. . .
Therefore, when Xiao Huayong sent him a message, he came. It was not because of the hidden threat in Xiao Huayong's heart, but just to make up for the guilt of the past, and to thank Shen Xihe for his generosity, so that he and his wife could be together in peace and happiness.
Xiao Changyan was startled, then laughed at himself: "So that's how it is, the Crown Princess is indeed worthy of being the Crown Princess..."
A girl who has never concealed her ambition since she came to the capital, a girl who can control His Majesty at every step, a girl who made him go from holding military power to having nothing!
Many people have told him that the Crown Princess is scheming and resourceful, and His Majesty has never gotten any favor from her.
Xiao Changyan did not disbelieve it, but he did not believe it completely either. He just had not experienced it personally, so he was skeptical. He never expected that after experiencing it personally, he would lose everything and there would be no room for comeback!
"Sixth brother, I will follow you and surrender." Xiao Changyan suddenly laughed, as if relieved and desperate. "The Crown Princess said that she would never let go of the Crown Prince's affairs. I have been waiting for her to take action. Nearly a month has passed, and there has been no movement. I thought the Crown Princess could not think of a good solution.
At this moment, I realized that I had underestimated her after all. She wanted to kill me, but she didn't want my blood to stain her hands, or that I could do something more for her with this life.
If I follow you today, I will die. Sixth brother, I have always known that you are an outstanding martial artist, but you have always been reluctant to teach me. Today, please go all out and let me fulfill my wish and learn from you, without any regrets. "
