The three of them were talking in the middle of a conversation when suddenly a voice came out. They were all stunned. It was obviously Princess Anding's voice. She actually came to discuss marriage? Now? With Shu Xiao?

Princess Anding and Shu Xiao were engaged, so it was natural for them to discuss their marriage, but Chu Heyi didn't like Princess Anding barging in like this, as if she was the most important person in the world.

Especially at this time, Xie Lin was in a coma. If she let Princess Anding come in like this, who knows how many people would climb over her head and bully her! The forces inside and outside the palace were becoming increasingly difficult to suppress!

"No one is allowed to let her in without my permission." Chu Heyi spoke directly.

Xue Jinfei and Wang Shan's voices were heard outside: "Yes, Crown Princess!"

There seemed to be the sound of a sword being unsheathed outside, and then everything became completely quiet. Chu Heyi guessed that Princess Anding must have been stunned by the unsheathed sword of Xue Jinfei or Wangshan.

Shu Xiao, who looked resistant when he heard Princess Anding's voice, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Zhou Mochi remembered something and said, "Ren Feiyu asked me a question before. He asked why they could appear in Shengjing City on time on the night of the change of the imperial power in Daqi.

"At the time, I thought that the Northern Zhou had always been eyeing Da Qi, and with Zhou Hanchi's incident, the Northern Zhou had even more hatred towards Da Qi. It was normal for them to hide in Shengjing City in advance to crush Da Qi. But the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong."

Chu Heyi asked, "What do you think is wrong?"

Zhou Mochi said, "The Third Prince and his men have been hiding in Shengjing City for more than half a month. With the Crown Prince's keenness, he has not discovered them. Doesn't the Crown Princess find it strange?"

Chu Heyi was stunned for a moment: "You mean, someone in Shengjing City is hiding their tracks for them?"

Zhou Mochi said confidently: "Moreover, this person must be quite powerful, otherwise it would be difficult to hide their tracks so well."

"Could it be... that it was done by Prince Cheng and his wife? Did they plan this coup and then notify the people from Northern Zhou in advance to come?" Chu Heyi said, feeling a chill running down his spine.

Shu Xiao frowned and asked, "Since the Cheng Wang couple planned to seize power, why did they notify the Northern Zhou people in advance? Their purpose is to cause trouble for us, but they can't assume from the beginning that they will fail in seizing power! If they succeed in seizing power, won't they also have to face the punishment of the three princes of the Northern Zhou Dynasty?"

This is a question that Zhou Mochen can’t figure out, and Chu Heyi doesn’t have an answer in his mind for the time being.

However, Chu Heyi was very sure of one thing. After Prince Cheng and his wife fled Shengjing City, the forces of the three princes of the Northern Zhou Dynasty emerged and were soon found by Xie Lin...

"Is it possible..." Chu Heyi suddenly said: "King Cheng and his wife made two preparations. First, they led some forces from the Northern Zhou Dynasty to Shengjing City.

“If they succeed in seizing power, they will immediately send troops to capture the three princes of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and make great contributions, then King Cheng’s position as crown prince will be secure.

"If they fail to seize power, then we can lure out the Northern Zhou princes and others to deal with us, giving them an opportunity to escape from Shengjing City and head to Yanzhou City, and providing them with enough time?"

Zhou Mochen and Shu Xiao looked at each other. Obviously, Chu Heyi's words made them suddenly enlightened. They felt that this possibility was very high.

In an instant, beads of sweat appeared on Shu Xiao's back and his face turned pale.

He said, "Fortunately, the Crown Princess stopped me from leading the troops to continue chasing them. If I had really chased them, I'm afraid I would have died in the wilderness by now!"

Chu Heyi's thoughts were not much different from Shu Xiao's.

She has always known Runxue and she always has several plans for everything she does. If she can't kill her at the beginning, it would be better not to chase her down. Runxue and the others are not at the end of their rope yet, and chasing them down may cost her her life, which is not worth it.

He used the power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to gain merit, and when that failed, he used it to deal with them. Runxue did such a thing. He was really meticulous and ruthless.

Chu Heyi thought that in some aspects, Runxue was worth learning from.

However, this time, it can be considered a blessing in disguise. The war between Daqi and Northern Zhou was bound to break out sooner or later, and after going through this incident, Zhou Mochen gained the trust of Prince Zhou San.

Prince Zhou San asked him to come to Daqi as a spy, but on the contrary, Zhou Mochen became a spy for Northern Zhou.

Now, Zhou Mochen not only wants to take over Northern Zhou and avenge his mother and sister, but also wants to save his uncle's family. So, if she helps Zhou Mochen achieve his wish, she is actually helping her and Xie Lin, and helping Daqi expand its power.

If Zhou Mochi became the king of Northern Zhou, they would be friendly allies with Northern Zhou.

But if Zhou Mochen fails, Runxue will spare no effort to form an alliance with the Northern Zhou and attack Daqi together.

By then they will be attacked from both sides.

Then, they must help Zhou Mochen seize the imperial power of Northern Zhou.

Thinking of this, Chu Heyi finally let go of Xie Lin's hand, put it in the quilt, tucked the quilt for him, then stood up and faced Zhou Mochi.

"Prince Friday, I want to discuss something with you!"

She looked serious and solemn, and Zhou Mochi unconsciously pursed his lips: "Princess, please speak."

Chu Heyi said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince and I can do our best to help you get revenge, help you repay your uncle's family, save them from the water and fire, and help you become the king of Northern Zhou. But after this is over, I want Northern Zhou to belong to Daqi!"

Zhou Mochi was stunned, his face slightly pale: "In other words, for my own hatred and personal favor, I will sell out my country after the success?"

Chu Heyi said: "It's unpleasant to say so. But on the bright side, with the Northern Zhou annexed into the Great Qi, there will be no more wars between the two countries, and the people will always benefit."

Zhou Mochi said: "If it's just to avoid fighting, we can sign a friendly agreement in the future!"

Chu Heyi did not answer immediately.

She wanted to annex Northern Zhou, expand Daqi's territory, enhance Daqi's strength, and make Daqi a truly powerful country. After many years, no one dared to take over Daqi anymore.

Even if Zhou Mochen had not stood in her way, she would have thought so. The people in the northern border of Daqi had been deeply harassed by the Northern Zhou. There had been constant wars of varying sizes over the years, and she wanted to end this situation.

One is to fight for victory with Runxue and his wife, and the other is to achieve a truly strong country.

However, she suppressed her thoughts in her heart and just smiled at Zhou Mochi: "Prince Zhou Wu does not need to rush to refuse or agree. Our current target is the Northern Zhou. I believe that no matter whether Prince Zhou Wu finally agrees or not, if you control the Northern Zhou, it will not start a war with our Daqi in the short term.

"When our two countries join forces to eliminate dissidents, the prince will come back on Friday to decide whether to belong to Daqi."

Zhou Mochen breathed a sigh of relief. Chu Heyi did not oppress him, which was very good. He did not want to be a traitor, but he also did not want to be an enemy of Chu Heyi.

only……

"How should we help Prince Zhou Zhou become the king of Northern Zhou?" Shu Xiao asked the question in Zhou Mochen's mind.

But at this moment, Princess Anding's ugly insults were heard from outside.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unconscious, but the Crown Princess is in Qianqiu Palace, summoning General Shu Xiao and the five princes of Beizhou alone. What shameful things are they doing?"
