Qianqianjie, kidnap a reborn prince back to the modern era
Chapter 17: Various Prefectures' Calculations
It is not difficult to guess what Emperor Dongcang is thinking. The three brothers of the Xia family have always known that His Majesty is wary of them, so they unite to protect him, and even support Queen Xia and their nephew, the eldest prince Cangxun, in the palace with all their strength.
They were not too surprised by Emperor Dongcang's decision to appoint Cangyu as the commander-in-chief of the Capital Protection Camp.
"He won't make any moves. Everyone knows that the real power of the three battalions in the defense battalion is in our hands. He can't seize our military power without a legitimate reason."
Xibohou Xia Jun said slowly that he believed it without a doubt.
"Don't worry, the Third Battalion is in my hands. I have them all in control, so there won't be any trouble."
Xia Wei is a reckless man with great strength and a simple mind, but he has one advantage: he does whatever his elder brother tells him to do.
"Don't be too relaxed. Cangyu has returned from the battlefield with a fierce and ferocious spirit. We should be more careful with him. However, since he has returned safely, we can also take the opportunity to persuade him to join our camp. In this way, the position of the crown prince will be safe."
The person who spoke was Xia Feng, the second son of Xibohou Mansion.
His gloomy eyes were half-closed, his hands tapped rhythmically on the table, and he seemed to be thinking about something.
"Second brother is right. If we can get Cangyu to the side of the Crown Prince, he has 200,000 troops in the Western Territory, which will definitely be a great help to us."
Xia Jun nodded deeply. His second brother was the smartest one.
When his father was alive, he repeatedly told him to make good use of his second brother's brain and not to be jealous of his talent and ability and not let others take advantage of him.
Over the years, he has always remembered his father's words, treated his second brother with courtesy, and taken good care of his third brother. The three brothers have never lived in separate houses, and the backyard of Xibohou Mansion is very harmonious.
"Yes, yes, I agree with Lord Xiahou's judgment. For so many years, Your Majesty has used many strategies, but he has never been able to seize our military power. This time, it will be a waste of effort."
The person who spoke was Bai Qi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who was sitting at the last seat at the bottom, and the Crown Princess's biological brother.
Crown Princess Bai Qiong was also a famous beauty when she came of age. At a banquet, the eldest prince fell in love with her at first sight, but his mother felt that the Bai family was not powerful enough and never agreed. In desperation, they had an affair secretly. For the sake of their reputation, his father granted them a marriage, and Bai Qiong became his principal wife. When he was made crown prince, he was grateful to her for bringing him good luck, so she became the crown princess in a legitimate way.
After a few years, he also lost his attachment to the Crown Princess's beauty.
Therefore, Bai Qi worked diligently every day, trying to be the prince's purse, and followed his orders, fearing that he would dislike his sister.
After being comforted by several people, the prince felt a little relieved. He instructed all parties to pay close attention to the developments of Prince Sheng's Mansion and make full use of the servants who were sent in by people in the palace when Prince Sheng opened the mansion.
……
Prince Ning's Mansion.
The Ning Palace of the Third Prince Cangmin was as peaceful as ever, but the atmosphere inside was not enough to make people breathe easily.
"Have all the people sent out to kill Cangyu returned?" he asked Nanshan, his long-time attendant.
"I'm back, but I found a strange problem. The three groups of secret guards we sent out were ambushed at the places where Cangyu must pass according to the advance plan, but he avoided them all. Moreover, my subordinates have inquired in the past few days and found that the prince also sent out several groups of troops, but they all returned empty-handed. This is very strange, as if he knew about the ambush in advance."
Prince Ning also fell into deep thought.
When Cangyu came back this time, he was named King Sheng and took over the command of the Capital Defense Camp, which was greatly detrimental to his plans over the years.
"We are in the dark now, so we can stay put for now. He won't notice us. He will only think that the prince is dealing with him. We can take this opportunity to sit back and watch the fight."
Jing Zhan, Prince Ning's childhood companion, smiled more elegantly than Cang Min.
He was the youngest son of the Grand Priest and a classmate of Ning Wang Cangmin.
The two men have similar personalities and aspirations, and are friends like you and me. He has always been giving advice to King Ning. It was his arrangement that enabled the Third Prince to win the title of King Ning by relying on his talent and fame.
Prime Minister's Mansion, backyard.
The calculations of the various mansions did not affect Yun Qianyou's good mood. She soaked in the wooden tub, enjoying a comfortable hot bath, thinking about what happened in the past few days, calculating what tricks the Prime Minister's wife would use to deal with her next, and when it would happen, without a trace of melancholy in her heart.
She had been waiting for this day for too long, and she was almost impatient to have a fight with the Prime Minister's wife, so as to vent her anger for the mother she had never met.
I got out of the bathtub, changed into new pajamas, lay down on the brand new big bed and brand new bedding, smelled the faint fragrance in the room, and fell into a deep sleep.
She dreamed again of her childhood. Her mother was the president of a large company and was very busy every day, but she could still find time occasionally to pick her up from kindergarten. Whenever she saw her mother, she would be the first one to run out and throw herself into her mother's arms, feeling that she was the person her mother cared about the most.
When she returned home, she would try to hide from her grandfather and walk around, but she failed every time. Her grandfather would catch her and ask her to recite the pharmacopoeia "Qian Jin Fang". If she made a mistake, her grandfather would slap her tender little hands with his rough hands.
Although it didn't hurt much, she would cry so loudly every time that her mother had to carry her out to calm her wailing.
She seldom saw her father come home. The little girl only knew vaguely that her father was a senior military officer with a mysterious job and was away from home for a long time each year. She felt both respect and unfamiliarity towards her father.
When she was about to graduate from elementary school, she had a crush on a boy in her class.
That boy was cool and arrogant every day. His academic performance was not very good, but every time the teacher said something to him, he could talk back confidently. Although his academic performance was not ideal, he was proficient in all extracurricular entertainment activities. She was so envious and admired him.
She envied his confidence and freedom, unlike her, who was always asked by her grandfather to learn this and that.
This is her little secret, which even her mother doesn't know.
This is also why when she started filling out her application form, she secretly applied to study abroad. She wanted to go to a very far away country and live the life she wanted.
Her dream was very beautiful and very long.
In her dream, she returned to the 22nd century, to the home where she was born and raised, and to the city with tall buildings lined up side by side.
She reported to the hospital as scheduled.
In the hospital, she was busy performing endless surgeries and seeing countless outpatients, but she squeezed out time to accept invitations from her friends to eat hotpot and visit exhibitions.
She happily planned that when she returned home this time, she must take time out to fall in love so that she, who had been single since birth, could enjoy the nourishment of love.
She laughed and laughed in her dream, and woke herself up with laughter.
She opened her ignorant eyes and saw a bed frame with carved beams and painted pillars, antique bed curtains, and a bed that was hard no matter how many quilts were put on it. There was no mattress that was in accordance with human memory function, no sound-controlled lights, no air conditioning that could be controlled throughout the house, no mobile phones, no computers, no cars...
Hey!
She lay on the bed, her eyes blank.
No mother yet...
Wait, mom.
As a baby at the time, she strained to glance at the pale, beautiful woman lying on the bed, the original owner of the house.
Fortunately, she should look different from her mother in her previous life.
fortunately!
fortunately!
Otherwise she would worry whether her mother had also come to this life and had such a tragic fate.
The thought frightened her so much that she broke out in a cold sweat. She sat up straight and patted her pounding heart in anger.
