After rebirth, I joined forces with my mortal enemy to seek revenge.

The two of them walked on the corridor one behind the other, and the noise behind them gradually faded away.

"Today is really dangerous." The prince slowed down and said slowly.

Hearing this, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said, "Your Highness, are you afraid?"

"If I were afraid, I wouldn't have asked someone to send a message to Ah Ruo and send someone to look for you. It's a good thing that you were able to agree with Ah Ruo and come up with such an idea." The prince smiled.

Pei Jiaoran smiled, noncommittal. After all, even without her temporary change of plans, the prince would have been able to come back safely. Emperor Wei would not give up the prince easily, let alone allow King Wu to suppress the prince in such a name. This fictitious thing will be covered up by another fictitious thing. No matter whether the prince said such things or not, they will be buried in Cuiwei Palace. Princess Xuanli discovered that the only function of auspiciousness was to do what Emperor Wei liked and let Emperor Wei see what he wanted to see.

However, this time Pei Jiaoran also made a big bet, betting that Emperor Wei would believe the child's words. She was also expressing her thoughts to the prince.

I have been struggling in the court for so many years. She knows that the reason for choosing a new husband is important. A courtier with real power and a transcendent status should not only not take refuge when the other party has many aides, but also should not take the initiative to take refuge. The former is because there is no place for you, and the latter is because it is too cheap.

Although she knew early on that the crown prince's position was secure, she did not show any willingness to accept the recruitment. Because she knew at that time that there was no shortage of talents and resources around the prince, and half of the entire court family was devoted to him. What he lacks is a confidant who is trustworthy enough to govern the world and who is also related to the Forbidden Army. And she couldn't blatantly betray Emperor Wei. That would not only make Emperor Wei dissatisfied, but would also be stained.

But if you choose to take refuge when the prince is in danger, you can also appease Emperor Wei. Then everything will be revealed.

I am a courtier and someone whom Your Majesty relies on. You know my abilities, you know my origins, and I can influence General Shence to be loyal to you. Going around in circles, you and I have become the closest monarchs and ministers.

I am the disciple of Wuchang Li, the world leader. I am both the deputy of the Zhongshu Province and the title of a county king. You can't find many political resources like me in the world.

Loyalty is priceless, but a direct show of allegiance is often the cheapest. You have to go around in circles with your head held high and re-enter the circle of people you want to be loyal to, in order to gain a good reputation as a monarch and his ministers.

"Originally I planned to offer auspicious auspiciousness at the banquet. Unexpectedly, the prince is in jail, so I had to change my mind temporarily." Pei Jiaoran looked into the distance and curled his lips, "Fortunately, Your Majesty believed that the auspicious auspiciousness is true."

The prince frowned, "Did you also arrange it for Blue Immortal?"

"He is a fake immortal. He eats all kinds of grains, so he naturally has seven emotions and six desires. I just happen to have something to do with him." Pei Jiaoran smiled sternly.

Turning to stare at Pei Jiaoran, the prince raised his lips and said, "I will be waiting for Prime Minister Pei in the East Palace."

After listening to the prince's words, Pei Jiaoran smiled and lowered his head. Just as the sound of footsteps was heard, the two looked at each other and left along two different corridors.

The banquet has been over for a long time, and the candlelights in various residences have been extinguished one after another. There were only a few scattered lights left, shining dimly in the night.

The mountain wind blew on my body, ruffling my clothes.

Seeing his residence right in front, Pei Jiaoran stopped. He leaned against the pillar with his arms folded.

"How long do you plan to hide?" Pei Jiaoran said leisurely.

As soon as the voice fell, a person walked out of the shadows. The appearance also appeared under the moon, it was Li Xiujing.

"I happened to have nothing to do, so I thought I'd come and see you." Li Xiujing quickly stepped forward and took Pei Jiaoran's hand, then walked to the side and stood behind the rockery. He looked around and lowered his voice, "Just now I was worried that Your Majesty would agree to Tubo's request."

"No. To His Majesty, I am an irreplaceable minister. Even if he asked King Wu to marry the Tibetan princess, he would not let me go." Pei Jiaoran raised his eyes and looked at Li Xiujing with a smile. He said: "It's just that the princess that Tubo asked for, there is no way not to give it to them."

Emperor Wei did not have a daughter of the right age, and other families in the clan might not have any. Worse still, there were daughters in the families of courtiers. But after all, they are all their own daughters. If they really want to marry outside the vassal country, there are only a few who are willing.

Now that Emperor Wei had thrown the problem to her and the prince, it meant that the two of them had to come up with a decent plan. Whether it is choosing the daughter of a clan member or a court official, it is an offending job.

"It's 9,900 miles from Kaiyuanmen to the west of Hexi. In order to stabilize the Western Regions during the Han Dynasty, dozens of women went out to the fortress. Countless people came and went on this 9,900-mile Xiji Road, but many of them spent their entire lives. The road back home that I cannot embark on," Pei Jiaoran said with emotion.

"The marriage of one person to exchange for peace between the two countries is just a temporary measure. Even if the princess is supported by thousands of people, such a fate should not be borne by them." Li Xiujing looked at Pei Jiaoran, "You don't want anyone to get married, right? ?”

"What kind of girl doesn't have a family? How can she be willing to be separated from her family from now on? It's not suitable to start a war now, and Tubo looks like it won't give up until it wants to marry the princess. I have to think carefully about how to make Tubo give up on its own."

Obviously rejection is invalid. All she could do was find another way.

"Speaking of which, what happened to the auspiciousness today?"

Although he didn't know what happened, his intuition told him. This is Pei Jiaoran's handiwork.

"The prince is in trouble. I'm going to come up with a way to rescue him. It can be regarded as my welcome gift when entering the East Palace." Pei Jiaoran said.

She had refused the prince's solicitation many times before. Even if there is no grudge on the surface, only he knows what is going on inside.

"So Lan Xianren was also colluded with you." Li Xiujing seemed to think of something and poked Pei Jiaoran's pink cheek, "You are a bad fox, did you trick Jiang Miao?"

Hearing Jiang Miao's name, Pei Jiaoran smiled and said nothing. At that time, she guessed that Jiang Miao was ordered to drive away the birds, thinking that this man had left all the emperor's review of the divine strategy to Li Xiujing. Only then did he decide to trick him.

Fortunately, this person is eager to achieve success and wants to be in the limelight. He shouted auspicious signs all the way, and Emperor Wei heard him, but he also made countless enemies for him.

After all, Lieutenant Shence and Zhang Rang were the people closest to him. Go past the two of them and report directly to the emperor. Wouldn't it embarrass the two of them?

After thinking for a while, Pei Jiaoran said, "It's me. How do you plan to repay me?"

Catching the calculation in her eyes, Li Xiujing's eyes narrowed. He smiled and slowly bowed his head until his lips were only a centimeter apart. His hot lips pressed against Pei Jiaoran's ear, and he murmured, "Should we change places?"

After glaring at Li Xiujing, Pei Jiaoran whispered, "There is no one in the palace. It's late at night, I have to go and rest. It's a long night, I wish you sweet dreams."

After that, Pei Jiaoran walked out from behind the rockery and walked towards his residence.

Li Xiujing, who was still standing there, hesitated for a while. He turned around and left with a look of helplessness.
