Chapter 645: The Eve of the Reserve

The father is considered the most cheating son, the son is considered the most cheating father, and the wife is considered the best husband in the world. The Yue Xiaosi, who has gathered many titles, is now very popular in Shangjing City and can easily be seen. Even countless officials and people think that he is simply a legend.

He was obviously just a princess who fell out of favor, but after his wife passed away, he was chased by the eldest princess who liked to turn over the princess. Not only did he not end up in the trap, but he made a meritorious service and made a great fight with his uncle, King Jin Xiao Jingxian. Before Xiao Jingxian treason, he had just drawn a line with the other party. While he was not out of favor, he also took the title of commander Qiu Shusi. Now it is even more legendary. The emperor found a son for Xiao Jingxian, who was his adopted son!

That's right, although Yue Xiaosi was begging for nothing, he took out his adoptive father from Zhen Rong's mouth.

At this moment, the newly promoted prince of Lanling, the newly promoted prince, was carrying the newly promoted king Zhen Rong, who was one level higher than him. Although the official name should be Xiao Rong, Zhen Rong was very resistant to this and still walked towards the East Palace in all unnecessary occasions.

The two of them had previously taken on the errands of the prince, and now they are ordered to check the long-distance East Palace of Northern Yan.

However, to outsiders, the two people who were like father and son were not as gentle as that of the current conversation. Because every time they spoke, they received a very inappropriate answer, Zhen Rong finally became popular. He was a little behind Ji Xiaosi, who suddenly surpassed the other party with one step, and then directly blocked Yue Xiaosi.

It was because of the fact that he had eaten a lot of meat and milk in the past few months, and because the young man grew up, he rose two or three inches higher. Now he stood in front of the tall and upright Yue Xiaosi and could almost look at him in a straight face. He completely ignored the peeping eyes not far away and shouted in anger: "What do you mean by perfunctory words? You know clearly that the Twelve Princess likes Yue Qianqiu, not to mention that I haven't even met her several times. I will never agree to such an inexplicable marriage, and I think she won't agree to it!"

"You are wrong." Yue Xiaosi shook his index finger gently, then took a step forward, pushed away the seemingly determined and angry Zhen Rong, and continued to walk forward slowly, until the person hurriedly chased him. The sound of gasping for anger was clearly audible. He said lightly, "Xiao Shier has grown a lot after coming back this time. She likes Qianqiu, but it doesn't mean she will resist her father."

"You never thought that she would come to you and then make an agreement between the two of you? For example, you are pretending to be married and have different rooms. Just be like that, who do you like, who she likes, and who she likes, let it go. Wait until the limelight passes... Well, this limelight passes naturally refers to her father's death, and then you two will naturally be separated and do whatever you like."

Zhen Rong had forgotten the cultivation of being influenced by his master since childhood, and almost wanted to curse: "Bastard, this is ridiculous! How can the big marriage be so sensible? Besides, this is just your imagination!"

"Wrong, Xiao Shier came to me and asked me to reconcile with you first. When you two talk, you can be more calm."

The words of the little girl successfully aroused all the anger of Zhen Rong. He caught up with the little girl again and reached out to pull his collar, but the hand was easily opened by the little girl. Not only that, the little girl used the little girl hand that was inherited from Yueying, which was only stronger than Zhou Jiyue, to twist Zhen Rong's hands in just two moves, and then pulled him closer.

"Don't forget that you called my adoptive father. Although your title is now a little higher than mine, the word "unfilial" in Beiyan is not a serious crime, but it is not good-looking after all. Since you chose to stay by mistake and chose to accept the title of King Jin, now you go to the East Palace with me to see what is missing and you need to make up for it. Tomorrow you will be enthroned by the crown prince. You have to be enlightened in some things."

Seeing that Zhen Rong drooped her head completely as if she was deflated, Yue Xiaosi let go of her hand and patted Zhen Rong on the back of her head as if she was a child, then she took a step back.

"Besides, this matter is still 108,000 miles away from success. The Princess Anguo of Xiao Shi Er can still be granted smoothly, but do you think the third prince can be granted smoothly in this book? When the messy things happen, you will not care about anything, let alone you think of the marriage that Xiao Shi Er thought of with her father's head."

Zhen Rong suddenly felt like a basin of ice water was poured in his head, and he calmed down instantly. He was not an impulsive person at first, but for some reason, he got along with this guy around him for a long time, but he was always teased to the point of being messed up.

When he arrived at the East Palace, he simply followed Yue Xiaosi quietly, watching the people pick on the people who were so nervous that they were picky about the here and there, and when they went out, they said something.

"You have so many problems. Can these problems be solved before tomorrow?"

"It is my responsibility today to pick faults. It is their task to correct faults. It is their business to not finish them. What does it have to do with me?"

Yue Xiaosi glanced at Zhen Rong while speaking, "Besides, since I took you to pick up the brother and sister of the third prince and Xiao Shier who were almost dead, in the eyes of others and even the emperor, we are one party. As a party, we naturally have to try our best to fight for the third prince who is about to enter the Eastern Palace. This is the minimum obligation. At this time, we cannot tell it, because no one else will believe it."

Just as he said this, he saw a man flying towards him in the distance. He stretched out his hand and pointed a little, then said with a smile: "Since there were incidents before, now Beiyan Imperial City and Palace City are not allowed to run horses. If you have anything, you have to walk on both legs. Look at this person running so fast and coming for us again, I'm afraid something happened again."

Zhen Rong had deeply seen the crow of the Lanling Prince beside him, but the bad things were very effective, so he could not help but feel nervous. When the person was about to approach, he asked directly without waiting for the other party to speak: "What happened?"

The eunuch was already out of breath. When Zhen Rong asked suddenly, he wanted to speak without stopping, but was choked by Han Feng. He coughed and then fell to the ground.

And his throat was choking and coughing hard, it looked like he was hoarse in his throat or a sign of being poisoned. After a while, many people came out to the gate of the East Palace to stumble.

Seeing Zhen Rong's look caught off guard, Yue Xiaosi walked up and dragged the person up, venting his back with one hand, then he took two shots from his throat. When the eunuch finally recovered, he smiled and said with a smile: "Tomorrow is the auspicious day for the crown prince. You are about to cough and die. Others think that you are waiting for us to see with your last breath."

The eunuch ran out of exhaustion and choked again, and his legs were completely weak. Although he changed his expression at this time, he did not dare to fight with Yue Xiaosi. He could only lower his head and whisper: "The prince, the young man is so angry. In fact, it was the princess of Wei... who left the book and ran away, and his whereabouts are unknown."

Although his voice was extremely low, the smaller the face was still motionless, but Zhen Rong was not so calm. The expression of shock and anger at that moment had already made the people at the gate of the East Palace not far away see clearly.

Yue Xiaosi, who noticed this scene, glanced at the peepers. Seeing that most of them were shrinking back under his gaze, but there were still people standing there. He didn't get angry and asked calmly: "Is it the Emperor who asked you to come?"

The eunuch hurriedly said respectfully: "The emperor fasted in Qingxin Pavilion early in the morning, and had already spoken to the commander that from today to tomorrow, the state affairs would be asked about the left and right prime ministers, and the internal affairs would be reported to the county princess and the King of Jin. The departure of the princess of Wei was considered as the internal affairs of the royal family, so..."

He nodded and said that he understood. No need to say more. He sent the eunuch away with a gesture. Yue Xiaosi hooked his hand and signaled Zhen Rong to follow him. When he left the scope of the East Palace, he spread his hands and said, "Did you see it? Now there are at least ten hours before the auspicious time for the crown prince tomorrow. The eldest princess is gone. There will be more things to do next, and you and I will solve them all."

Zhen Rong was already a little accustomed to the strange style of Emperor Beiyan, and at this moment he couldn't help frowning: "The emperor even issued an edict for guilt, and he also said that he would implement benevolent policies in the future, stop wars, investigate annexation, and determine the foundation of the country. Why do you still let it go..."

"What's the matter? The country will be decided tomorrow, but look at the first three items, which are to appease ordinary people, not to appease high-ranking officials and nobles. Haven't you seen it yet? Today's Emperor of Dayan doesn't like all the powerful, royal family, and aristocratic families in Beiyan for nearly a hundred years. Although even his sons have been eliminated over the years, more people have been eliminated. Therefore, the third prince is probably not just a decoration. Without his mother's clan, he is quite in line with his father's standards."

"The premise is that he can survive."

Yue Xiaosi's last eight words were spoken out immediately after seeing the third prince, but he just changed him to you. He did not intend to be a powerful minister in Beiyan for the rest of his life, so he didn't care about offending the future prince or even the emperor. Later, when he mentioned that the eldest princess who had been affectionate to him in the past disappeared, his tone was so plain that it seemed that he was just talking about a stranger.

"I'm afraid the eldest princess has a murderous intent when she leaves, and she will not give up."

"She still wants to kill me... She doesn't give up, she still wants to kill me!"

The third prince shouted nervously until the twelve princess' impatient scolding came from the side that he closed his mouth.

"She wants to kill us, but I still want to kill her! I was really sorry for her when I lied to her before, but that was when her own uncle said that she was not the queen's biological child, and it was not what I said. She was going crazy and capable of being at Xiao Jingxian. Why are she doing for me?" The twelve princess stroked a wound on her left neck that had just healed but still had scars, and a deep hatred appeared on her face.

"But I also want to thank her. If it weren't for her, maybe I would still be the little girl who only knows to wander around men all day long, doesn't know anything, and listens to others' everything, and will not have the glory of the present. Even if this glory is just because my father sees me, I still have some charity, and it is better than being regarded as a fool in the past!"

Yue Xiaosi seemed to have no idea what the Twelve Princess said to be regarded as a fool, and she also had a little resentment towards him. He shrugged and said lightly: "The soldiers come to block the enemy, and the water comes to cover the earth. The emperor is sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight. As long as we do not have the arrogance of gathering the followers and killing the emperor together, even though there are many enemies to deal with, it is not difficult."

"How do you know that the father did not have the intention of getting rid of us together by fighting against the snipe and clam?"

Although he seemed weak and had no opinion when he was just stopped by the Twelve Princess, when he interrupted Yue Xiaosi's words at this moment, the third prince showed a hysterical madness.

"Twelve and I both came back from Nanwu. In the eyes of others, it was a secret agreement with Nanwu. An Zhi's father didn't think so? If the so-called appointment of me as the crown prince was just a cover? We only care about dealing with the enemies who were swarming in front of us. If we were stabbed hard in the back when we were exhausted and we were stabbed hard in the back, then wouldn't we die?"

"But what are the benefits of your father doing this?" This time, Zhen Rong asked back, "Although he is younger than Emperor Nanwu, he is about to know his destiny. He used to be a group of sons, but now he is already scattered. As long as you don't deal with him, who will he give you the throne after he kills you?"

The third prince pounded the table with both fists and said angrily: "Who is right! The emperor of Dayan...there are not many normal people!"

Not to mention that Yue Xiaosi and Zhen Rong both agreed with this evaluation, even the Twelve Princess agreed deeply. However, compared to the third prince who was about to ascend to the position of crown prince but had no confidence at all, they did not think that what Emperor Beiyan was talking about this time was to make others burn and say something ugly. He was cut off like a round of wheat, and many positions in the officialdom were empty.

This situation began in the middle and late stages of the previous emperors. Because domestic political struggles were too frequent and fierce, not only did the descendants of the Northern Yan royal family fall down one by one, but even the Han families were deeply affected. Therefore, when Liu Jingxuan and Dai Jinglan led a bandit army to return north, they could use the strategy of making a sound from east to west to send the four Han families who had been rooted in Northern Yan for nearly a hundred years back.

Even the Han families who have served in Beiyan for generations and have not easily mixed with the royal family's internal struggle can no longer stand this fierce internal struggle. The Emperor of Beiyan has issued a self-destruction. If this is not restrained, he still plans to continue to harvest wheat... Haha, then the rest is a wilderness.

Nowadays, many of the fifth-rank officials are even newly-Jinshi signed six years ago or even three years. You can imagine how many officials were destroyed.

Therefore, after Yue Xiaosi glanced at Zhen Rong and Princess Twelve, he said calmly: "I am ready tomorrow. If Xiao Shi Er doesn't appear, she will be fully responsible for the outside of the palace. As for the palace, Arong and I are the chief envoys of the enthronement. If there is anything, you will always live and die with you, so you can put your heart back in your stomach. If it really doesn't work, then you will be beaten to death!"

Anyway, if that is the case, in the chaos in Beiyan, he could "dead" and complete the task and go home. His wife and children will be warm! The news channels between him and the south have been officially established. With Erjie's central organization and Yan Xu's support from the south, a group of absolutely reliable people have sneaked into Beiyan as a supporter. The number is not large, but the price is the elite.

Besides, Xiao Jingxian’s group of guards are now Zhen Rong’s loyalty. Even if Xiao Jingxian is mixed with sand, it is enough for them to do something less confidential!
