Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

She held the torch high in her hand and began to carefully search for herbs around her. In such a deep forest, it was easy for some rare herbs that were not seen in normal days to grow.

Unfortunately, no herbs that could poison people were found in the area where Gu Xunwei was.

At this time, she helplessly thought that even if she really found it, those one or two herbs could not be fed to so many people.

Alas, thinking of this, Gu Xunwei had to sigh and give up this plan.

Inside the tent, Li Xingxian was looking at Wang Zhuo and Li Junze with a serious expression, "Are you serious, sir?"

He asked this question not because he did not believe Wang Zhuo, but because he felt that this matter was too unbelievable.

"Yes, the message should have reached Yanbei soon. If you hadn't led the troops out, they would have definitely received it.

The emperor was too selfish and actually passed the crown prince position to the eleventh prince Li Junsheng for no reason. No matter how many ministers opposed this matter, he refused to accept it. It is said that all the memorials were sent to the imperial study, but none of them were opened. "

He was so eloquent that he even described the matter of changing the crown prince as the emperor's own will. Most of the court officials who opposed it were Wang Zhuo's students.

"Why? Why did he make the eleventh prince the crown prince?" Li Xingxian couldn't believe it. Even if he thought Li Junhao was not suitable, he should have considered Li Junze first.

After all, Li Junsheng is not yet an adult, while Li Junze is just the right age.

"There is no definite statement about this matter, but I have heard that there are rumors that it is because of Concubine Shu."

Wang Zhuo calculated that Li Xingxian was far away from the capital. Even if he had some information, he could not know too many details. He only knew the results of some things.

Shufei Si Yange is the sister of the late queen. Although she does not fight for power in the palace, as the daughter of Prime Minister Si, the aunt of the crown prince, and the biological mother of the eleventh prince, she is undoubtedly the most noble woman in the palace.

When Wang Yuyan was still Concubine Yu, she was naturally the most popular, but now she has been demoted to Zhaoyi. Even as a concubine, she cannot be compared with Concubine Shu.

"I also heard that the emperor has not attended the morning court these days, and all matters are handled by the current crown prince. Some people speculate that the emperor was given to him by their mother and son..."

Wang Zhuo did not say what came next, but when connecting the dots between the incident and the present, Li Xingxian could associate it with the fact that the emperor was held hostage without having to think too much about it.

The faces of the three men were not looking good. Although Li Junze was shocked that Wang Zhuo had deceived Li Xingxian, his expression was very cooperative, just like a down-and-out prince who had suffered all kinds of grievances and been ostracized.

Li Xingxian slammed the table and said, "Humph, this kind of thing is definitely not something that a harem girl like Concubine Shu can do. She must have the support of that old fox Simaode behind her."

When he was in the capital, he had no good feelings towards Simaode. If he thought about it carefully, he was instigated by Wang Zhuo's words.

"Well, since there is no definite evidence and no way to verify these things, it actually gives us a good opportunity now."

Wang Zhuo looked at the angry Li Xingxian with a deep gaze, "Yan'er currently has a few people in the palace who can be used. If we enter the palace to rescue the emperor, they can also give us some help."

His words made Li Xingxian's eyes light up. He had been worried, not knowing what excuse to use to break into the palace. If he broke in like this, he would definitely be considered a rebellion.

Unexpectedly, Wang Zhuo had already prepared such a good excuse for himself. Entering the palace to rescue the emperor could only be done by the emperor's younger brother.

"Okay, now that we have this news, it will be much easier for me to do things." Li Xingxian nodded.

He looked at Li Junze lovingly, and then asked, "Ze'er, is your mother doing well recently?"

Li Junze thought of the last time Wang Yuyan came back to the scholar's residence. He didn't even look at him straight in the eye. He felt uncomfortable in his heart, but he said, "Not good. I have been crying all day. Life in the palace is not easy."

Wang Zhuo specifically told Li Xingxian about Wang Yuyan's demotion to Zhaoyi in a letter, so he could roughly guess the general situation.

As a result, Li Xingxian showed a sad expression on his face, and he couldn't help but make up his mind to rescue Wang Yuyan as soon as possible, even if it meant risking the whole world's condemnation.

"Okay, I understand. This time when I go to the capital, I will definitely rescue your mother."

Li Junze sneered in his heart. It turned out that Li Xingxian had such thoughts about Wang Yuyan, so he was used by Wang Zhuo. No wonder he was so determined and left no way out.

"Uncle, if our operation is successful this time, I will definitely not let you go to Beiyan again in the future, but go to a better place."

Li Junze's promise is of great significance to Li Xingxian, and it is also the prerequisite for him to agree to support Li Junze as king.

So Li Xingxian was even more excited, "Sir, we already have more than a thousand people, who entered the capital in batches today. Once our siege signal is sounded, they will help us open the city gate from the inside."

"When the time comes, please help me with the plan, sir." Li Xingxian bowed, asking Wang Zhuo to help him attack the capital.

As long as they broke one city gate, their troops could march straight in and attack the palace in a moment.

He grew up in the palace and was very familiar with the palace's defenses. If all went well, he could occupy the palace in just over an hour.

Wang Zhuo nodded and said modestly, "Your Highness, you are too kind. This matter is not just about you, but also concerns the life and death of my Wang family. I will definitely help you."

"But," he said, putting down the teacup in his hand, and after a moment of hesitation, he continued,

"When we enter the palace this time, we will certainly encounter resistance from His Royal Highness the Second Prince and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Please show mercy, Your Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, and spare their lives. After all, they are the heirs of the Emperor and Ze'er's brothers..."

However, before he could finish his words, Li Xingxian raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Sir, you are so confused. You have always taught me that you must not be soft-hearted when doing important things. Do you really want to leave two such big safety risks for Ze'er?"

Li Junze lowered his head, not daring to look at the two of them, for fear that his expression or eyes would reveal emotions that should not be revealed.
