"I've met the prince!" Ning Chen leaned over and saluted. The prince smiled all over his face, "Looking at your sad face just now, did something happen?" Ning Chen looked at him and shook his head, "It's okay! It's just that the Prime Minister Zuo is now gone and there is no news. I wonder where the grandson has gone?" "I thought you were worried about the South Vietnamese mission... The left prime minister once held a high position of power. Such a person would have already left a way out for himself. Where is he now? I'm afraid no one knows. " Ning Chen nodded slightly, "That's right!" The prince smiled and asked: "By the way, what do you think of the conditions proposed by the South Vietnam Kingdom?" Ning Chen shook his head, "I'm just a little silver-haired person. It doesn't matter what I think... What matters is what His Majesty and all the civil and military officials think?" "Don't be so self-effacing. Who in Daxuan doesn't know you, Ning Yinyi? Your prestige in the hearts of the people is higher than that of me, the prince." "Yesterday, my father sent someone to bring me the couplet between you and the Nanyue Imperial Master. He said that I was a fool and asked me to learn from you."
"Ning Chen, since you appeared, the number of times my father reprimanded me has obviously increased." The prince smiled bitterly. Ning Chen's eyes flashed slightly, "Hitting is a sign of affection, scolding is a sign of love. You are His Majesty's heir, and it is natural for me to teach my son." "I'm just a minister. Your Majesty can't train me every day, can you?" Ning Chen suddenly said jokingly: "Is the prince jealous because of this? And then he secretly killed me because of this?" The prince's expression froze slightly. "This is not a joke. You are excellent and are my great blessing. It's too late for me to be happy... Besides, do you think I am a jealous person?" Ning Chen stared at him for a while, then smiled and said, "Like." The prince looked helpless. "Ning Chen, do you have time? I'll treat you to a drink." Ning Chen shook his head, "I really don't have time right now. I have to go see the South Vietnamese envoy." The prince nodded, "That's alright, you work first...I'll treat you to a drink later when you're free." Ning Chen nodded, "Then I'll leave first!" The prince hummed and stared at Ning Chen's back, his eyes slightly narrowed and his face turned cold. "Did you find anything?" The prince whispered to himself. Who knows? Ning Chen suddenly looked back. The expression on the prince's face had no time to change, and he subconsciously turned around and walked towards the harem. Ning Chen frowned slightly. The cold expression on the prince's face just now was something he had never seen before.
It seems that this prince is not as simple as he appears. He couldn't help but think of Ning Ziming's words. The second prince died suddenly, and the prince was the biggest beneficiary. Ning Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly. Could it be that the prince and the left prime minister were really in the same group? If that's the case, that's trouble! Although the Zuo Prime Minister held a high and powerful position, he was an outsider after all... The prince was the son of Emperor Xuan, the crown prince, and the future master of Da Xuan. If the prince wants to deal with him, how should he deal with it? It seems that I need to prepare early, just in case. Prince, Prince, I hope you won't do anything stupid. Although you are the crown prince, I, Ning Chen, am not a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others. Ning Chen withdrew his gaze and left the palace. On the other side, the prince came to Furong Palace. "My son, please give my regards to your mother!" The queen is the mother of a country. Although she is not the prince's biological mother, the prince still calls her queen. Moreover, as a prince, he must know the rules and come to pay greetings to the queen frequently. The queen is still dressed gorgeously and vulgarly. Although he was dressed in fine gold and silver, and his clothes were luxurious, his appearance and figure made him look like he was wearing a crown. She put down the tea cup and asked calmly: "Why does the prince have time to come here today?" "My son just saw Ning Chen outside the royal study." The queen's eyes narrowed slightly, she turned to look at the old eunuch beside her, and said, "You go down first." "yes!" After the old eunuch retreated, the queen's eyes were cold and she asked: "Your Majesty summoned him, what's the matter?" The prince shook his head, "I don't know! Maybe it's about the South Vietnamese envoy." "I heard that he beat up the fourth prince of South Vietnam yesterday?" The prince hummed. The queen's eyes were fierce, "This little bastard is becoming more and more lawless, and it is becoming more and more difficult to move." The prince nodded, "Now that he has military exploits and the favor of his father, it will be difficult to move him." The queen glanced at him and said coldly: "If you had taken action earlier, you wouldn't be here today." "My mother forgives me, but when my father first recommended him to my son, I thought he was talented and a useful person... I didn't expect that this person would only do things based on his own likes and dislikes, and it would be really difficult to control him." The queen snorted coldly, stared at the prince, and said, "Does the prince have other thoughts?"
The prince was startled and said hurriedly: "I don't dare!" The queen said coldly: "Prince, please don't forget that the second prince died suddenly, and you and I were both involved... We are grasshoppers on a rope. If you can't run away, you can't run away from me." The prince's expression suddenly changed, and then he looked around in panic, for fear of being heard? "Mother, don't worry. I know how you got where you are today? I will never dare to think otherwise." The queen sneered: "It's good that you know!" "The Left Prime Minister has arrived safely in Fuzhou. He is our last resort." "The prince has already made preparations. In the spring of next year, my father will go on an expedition and return to Beijing. That will be the time for our uprising." The prince was shocked and said: "The grand master is coming back?" The grand master is Emperor Xuan's teacher. He is talented in literature and martial arts, and his prestige is not lower than that of General Chen. The reason why the queen can become the mother of a country is thanks to her father, otherwise it would be difficult for her to be elegant based on her appearance. She can firmly hold the position of queen precisely because she has a good father. Although the Grand Master is almost seventy years old, he has been stationed at the border over the years to suppress the Wu Kingdom adjacent to the Tuoluo Kingdom. The people of the Wu Kingdom were bloodthirsty and warlike. They fought against the Tuoluo Kingdom on one side and Daxuan on the other, fighting on two fronts. Moreover, the monarch of the Wu Kingdom is still a woman, and it seems that she has something in her bones. This empress is not simple. She often drives and conquers in person, and fights back and forth with the Tianxuan Army led by the Grand Master, often defeating more with less. In the past, General Chen led the army and was able to suppress Wu Guo. Ever since General Chen was injured, the Grand Master was barely able to draw a tie with Wu Guo. After several years of hard fighting, Wu State's national strength could not match that of Daxuan, so it chose to negotiate peace. In the spring of next year, the Grand Master will return to the imperial court. The queen nodded, and then said coldly: "Before my father comes back, we have to kill one more person." "who?" The queen's eyes were cold, "Old General Chen." The prince was shocked. The queen sneered and said: "I don't need to say more about General Chen's prestige in the army, right? Even my father can't compare to it... Although he is useless and no longer leads the army, his prestige is still there." "Many generals in the army are old subordinates of General Chen. If he is alive, it will be difficult for us to succeed in the uprising." "So, if he wants to succeed, he must die!" The prince could not hide the panic on his face. General Chen is the pillar of the country. Killing him is no small matter. Once the matter is exposed... he will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever. "Although Old General Chen is no longer in charge, he is surrounded by his former subordinates, all of whom are brave and skilled warriors. It is not easy to touch him."
The queen sneered and said: "Don't worry, competing with General Chen in a military competition in the capital is purely courting death." "I have already planned to kill General Chen and then blame Ning Chen... kill two birds with one stone." "When the time comes, I will tell you what to do?" The queen looked at the frightened prince and sneered, "What, are you scared?" "Your Majesty is in his prime. If we don't take action, how long will it take for you, the crown prince, to ascend to that position?" "If you want to wait until His Majesty dies before sitting in that position, think about how many more years you can sit there?" The prince was about to speak when he suddenly found a pair of feet exposed under the inner curtain... They were a pair of men's feet. The queen actually hid a man in the palace? The prince tried hard to suppress the shock in his heart, leaned over and said, "It's all up to the queen mother to make the decision!" The queen was very satisfied with the prince's attitude. "Okay, you shouldn't stay here too long, go back." "My son, please retire!" After the prince retreated, the inner door curtain opened, and a middle-aged man with a short beard walked out. He was slightly fat, but his eyebrows bore a resemblance to Emperor Xuan. This person is none other than King Fu. Ning Chen once mistakenly identified Emperor Xuan as Prince Fu. King Fu walked to the door, took a look, then came back and stroked the queen's big face, but his face was full of love. "This kid is really stupid, just like his father... really think he can sit on the throne?" "Sister-in-law, do you miss my brother?" The queen pretended to be coquettish and slapped his hand away, "This is the palace, don't let anyone see it." "This is the Royal Sister-in-law's Furong Palace, what are you afraid of? Besides, I have the permission of the Emperor's brother to come to pay my respects to the Royal Sister-in-law." "Brother Huang is diligent in government affairs, so let me, as his younger brother, help him share his worries and nourish his wife." King Fu had a lewd smile on his face and reached out to hug the queen. But he didn't pick her up the first time, and he barely managed to pick her up after the second time. Veins popped out on his forehead and his legs swayed. Of these two people, one is fatter than the other, and one is thinner than the other. "Don't act nonsense in broad daylight. If someone sees you, you'll suffer. You can't stay here too long, or you'll be criticized." Although the queen said this, she still put her hands around Prince Fu's neck. "It won't be long." Prince Fu swayed his legs, tremblingly holding the queen in his arms and walking towards the inner room.
King Fu really didn't lie about this. He was a man who kept his word. If he said it wouldn't be long, it wouldn't be long... He ended the battle in less than half a cup of tea. Seeing the resentment on the queen's face and the hungry eyes, King Fu's scalp went numb. There is more than enough heart but not enough strength! "Sister-in-law, have a good rest. Brother Chen will come see you in a few days... I believe it won't be long? This kind of sneaky days should be over." King Fu put on his clothes and left as if running away. The queen's eyes were full of resentment, and then she sighed slightly... to comfort herself, it was better than nothing, better than nothing. Emperor Xuan had not favored her for many years, and it was only because Prince Fu occasionally came into the palace to quench his thirst. Prince Fu left the Furong Palace with frivolous steps and walked towards the Imperial Study Room. Although he has no real power, he is still a prince and His Majesty's younger brother...so he would often go into the palace to chat with Emperor Xuan, and then go to pay greetings to the queen, and by the way, he would help Emperor Xuan share his worries and nourish his sister-in-law. King Fu didn't notice that after he left, the prince came out from the corner. He frowned and stared at King Fu's back. Could it be that the Queen and Prince Fu...the prince felt a little numb for a moment. He felt that his guess would not be wrong. If they had no ulterior motives, why would the Queen hide Prince Fu? It could be done openly. Prince Fu paid respects to the Queen, which was natural and there was no need to hide. Moreover, the Queen knew that Prince Fu was hiding inside, but she spoke out without hesitation about killing the Second Prince and General Chen. It seems that they have been having an affair for a long time? Maybe it was Prince Fu who was behind everything. The Prince's back was sweating coldly, and he was more and more certain that he was just a pawn. He once asked the Queen why she didn't support the Third Prince, but supported him instead? The Queen's answer at the time was that although the Third Prince was raised by her, he was not her own, and his character was reckless and stupid, and he was not suitable to be the emperor at all. It seemed that the Queen did not intend to give him the throne... but to Prince Fu. Now he finally figured it out. If it succeeded, the throne would belong to Prince Fu or the Third Prince... If it failed, they would put all the blame on him, the Prince, to save themselves. But regardless of success or failure, he, the prince, will not have a good ending. The prince's face gradually became ferocious, "Since you are unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust... Let's wait and see."
