The reborn sycophant

It has been raining again these days.

The peach tree in the courtyard inevitably lost some petals, but because the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it is still very beautiful.Moisturized by the drizzle, there is always a layer of water vapor on the red and pink petals on the branches, hazy, like Zhao Ji's eyes when he just woke up.

When there is nothing to disturb, Wei Chuyan always likes to sit by the window, staring at the peach tree in a daze.In fact, it was only a few days away from Zhao Ji, but she always felt that it had been a long time, too long.

At first, there was always some floral fragrance in the courtyard, which was very similar to Zhao Ji's smell, but it was not as sweet as Zhao Ji's.Now that it's raining, all the scents of flowers have been immersed in the water, and now even the scent of flowers can't be smelled anymore.

Missing has become more difficult to pin down.

Is she hungry?Is she cold?She is not as bored as herself, she can enjoy herself, no one talks to her for so many days, she must be suffocated... So many worries are mixed together, it seems that the prisoner has become her , extremely tormented.

Even though it is suffering, the paved road still has to be walked, and those big and small schemes are coming to a critical time.

"Two and Seven are fighting, but it seems that they are still close."

Observing the recent changes in the situation calmly, Zhou Lu and Wei Chuyan expressed their concerns.

Both Zhou Lu and Xiao Chao survived the assassination a few years ago, but they still had to pay a price. Zhou Lu had a deep scar on his face, while Xiao Chao lost a piece of his little finger.

Fortunately, everyone is fine.

"It's not a simple thing, and there is no possibility of fighting others to the death in a moment of enthusiasm. You can see that they are fighting fiercely now, but Zhao Chen still hasn't given up on finding the whereabouts of the assassin. The defeat, but the assassin has not yet been pushed out, which is enough to prove that the two still have their own thoughts."

It was still raining, standing under the eaves, Wei Chuyan stretched out his hand to catch the raindrops dripping from the corner of the eaves. On his pure and beautiful face, there was a calmness that knew everything.

"Zhao Chen is guarding against me, and Zhao Jie has a big appetite, so he can't help thinking about luck. Let's ignore these for now, is everything going well with the Chunsou treasury?"

"Master, don't worry, the matter was originally done by Zhao Chen. No matter how they searched, the people from the Yulin Army could only find her. We didn't do surveillance, but we also learned about the presence of the Yulin Army. I think your Majesty I have already learned about the treasury."

After following Wei Chuyan for a long time, it is unavoidable to be contaminated with the kind and peaceful temperament of Wei Chuyan.But that was superficial after all, no matter how calmly he said, Zhou Lu still couldn't help but churn in his heart.He is Wei Chuyan's confidant, he has been with his master since he was ten years old, and he knew that his master was resourceful, but no matter how mentally prepared he was, it was still hard for him to imagine that anyone would be able to do so. do this.

From the beginning of the spring search preparations, no, maybe earlier, the master has been weaving this bureau.At first, he just followed his master's orders, some needed him to do, some didn't need him to do it, so he didn't see the whole picture of the matter, but now, looking back at everything that happened during this period, After gradually understanding what happened, the first thing I felt was a deep chill.

Master, she is only 15 years old.

15 years old.At her young age, she has already made up such a grand game, covering the second princess, the seventh prince, His Majesty the Emperor and others in the net. Those people are in the game, and everyone gets what they have taken their own initiative. What they found, so they believed in it, they all analyzed it carefully, and made the best choice that they should have made at that time, but they didn't expect that all of this was not done by themselves, but by Wei Chu. Feast drives the choices they make.

Because, from the very beginning, everyone was involved.

The second child, Zhao Chen, thought that Zhao Jie had taken the assassin, so he took advantage of the situation to push the assassination to Eleven; Zhao Jie thought that Zhao Chen was the real murderer, so he was sure about the assassin; as for the eldest prince, he didn't see it very clearly. However, it did not delay him taking this opportunity to make trouble.

As for Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu is a smart emperor, but he was assassinated first, and there was a noble concubine behind him. Thinking about it, he is like this now, he hates the child who dared to assassinate his father, and is moved by the person next to his pillow who sacrificed his life to block the arrow. Even so, he still sent two teams to secretly track down the real culprit. , where would he doubt it?

Everyone is involved, some people, let's take His Majesty the Emperor for example, he is used to absolute power and only believes in the things he finds out, so Wei Chuyan asked him to investigate, those things were hidden early in the morning Zhao Chen couldn't argue with those who were there.Like Zhao Chen, she is suspicious by nature, but she is ruthless enough. She knows that she doesn't have much advantage and always likes to hide people in secret. The reason why Wei Chuyan can pinpoint her pulse is because of the assassination when she was a child.Zhao Chen, as long as Zhao Chen is given a chance, she will definitely not let go of the possibility of getting rid of Zhao Ji.Another example is Zhao Jie, in fact, Zhao Jie himself is not much of a threat, but Wei Chuyan needs him to fight Zhao Chen, and needs their struggle to bring a temporary balance, while consuming the power of both sides, protect Zhao who is in prison At the same time, the emperor's suspicion was aroused, and the sleeping lion woke up to see how far these children he had been protecting under his wings were fighting in private.

The emperor is old, old and hesitant.After he abolished the crown prince, he never mentioned the establishment of the crown prince again. Many people were guessing his thoughts, but Wei Chuyan guessed that he might not want to establish any of them.

When he was old, he would even start to envy his young and powerful children. He took a lot of real pills. Isn't it a kind of fear of the loss of his own strength?If such a person is not pushed hard, I am afraid that Zhao Ji will really have to wait until the day the emperor dies before he can fight for the throne.

It only takes a moment to collect the net, but the bait and the opening of the net before casting the net is a meticulous and cumbersome work. What's more, when Wei Chuyan set up this game, it was earlier. At that time, she was 15 years old. None are full.

Sometimes Zhou Lu suspected that the master he was following might be a ghost in the form of a mountain spirit. She had such a clever mind, meticulous thoughts, and was born so beautiful.

Not like a mortal.

If knowing what he showed made Zhou Lu think this way, Wei Chuyan would probably smile wryly, right?In fact, she is not very smart, nor can she be said to be very wise and close to a monster.Let’s just say that in the previous life, when the emperor didn’t pay much attention to her, she was just an inconspicuous official. You will know her fate, her resourcefulness is not yet to the point where she can cover everyone up.

In this game, she probably took advantage of the rebirth.It's not obvious. Earlier, relying on the impression of some people and some forces in her mind, she helped Concubine Wan Gui grasp some underground forces of the other highnesses, precisely because these people had already After being exposed to their eyes, they will know some of Zhao Chen's plans in advance. Of course, the surveillance and instigation experienced in it is another good show.

Only by understanding this kind of plan can she follow up with the plan. She knows her strengths and also understands her weaknesses. She dare not relax for a moment, so she walks carefully, and finally it is time to close the net.

In fact, in the previous life, Zhao Ji was already an emperor when he entered the imperial court. She didn't know how Zhao Ji ascended to the throne, but judging from the situation in this life, the previous life was probably very difficult.

As far as she knew, Concubine Wan Gui died in that battle for the throne in her previous life.

I don't know how the imperial concubine died, and I don't know why the emperor finally rejected all opinions and passed the throne to His Royal Highness the Eleventh Prince who was only fourteen years old. Those who were suppressed were severely suppressed, and later they rebelled.Only the Seventh Prince, who did not know what he did, allocated a barren place and became a poor prince.

Therefore, the noble concubine should still start with the emperor, instead of directly doing a game of killing three birds with one stone like her, and wanting to eat several other highnesses who are a threat to Zhao Ji.

So in the previous life, at the beginning, it was a bit difficult for Zhao Ji to sit on the throne.

There is no queen mother in the court, which avoids the hidden danger of the queen mother intervening in politics, and at the same time prevents Zhao Ji's mother clan from developing.It is true that Wan Zhaohua was doing well at the time, and it seemed that he became one of the nine ministers later, but as a foreign relative, he had to keep a low profile, and his sister, Concubine Wan Gui, was dead, so he had to be more careful, so Zhao Ji was also considered a The power is weak.

So later, even the security guard's first banquet was a bit laborious.

"What happened to the assassin? I heard that Zhao Jie changed people several times in a row, and Xiao Chao didn't lose him. What about His Majesty's people? He should be watching over there too, right?"

"They didn't lose track of them. They almost found Xiao Chao once, so Xiao Chao never dared to come back. Occasionally, he would run towards the Second Highness, pretending to be someone from the Second Highness."

Wei Chuyan nodded, looking at the rain and fog in thought.

This assassin is no longer the key to the overall situation.

Zhao Jie was overjoyed because of having her, and Zhao Chen was anxious about losing her. She seemed very important, but in fact she had become a tasteless one.At least Wei Chuyan didn't intend to hold it in his hand, it was a hot potato, for His Royal Highness who is now "clean".

But Ren Lao Er and Lao Qi continue to bite like this, I am afraid that both sides still cannot bite each other's core, it is necessary to increase the fire, but with His Majesty's people guarding, the assassin can't touch it now, and there is no need to touch it again up.

Because now no matter who the assassin falls into, no matter whether the assassin is alive or dead, His Majesty has firmly established a belief: "The assassin was sent by Zhao Chen, and Zhao Jie is protecting him."

Therefore, the life and death of the assassin is no longer important, the crime has been placed on Zhao Chen, and Zhao Jie cannot escape punishment, but... this is not enough.

Far from enough.

When Wei Chuyan was thinking about how to add the last fire, an unexpected pie fell. It was on this night that the servants of Zhongchang took the assassin away.

I don't know what His Majesty's plan was, but this kick just made up for the last strength, and the door closed.

Wild animals fight inside.

The first to get excited was the Seventh Prince who had lost the assassin.

"They have been biting at me for the lack of strict supervision these days. This is not the worst crime. I can still bear it. But now that the assassin has been snatched back by Zhao Chen, the poisonous scorpion has no scruples, and I am afraid it will directly Say that I am guarding myself and stealing, and put the crime on me!"

After fighting for so many days, both sides have lost some soldiers and generals. The master behind the scenes has not suffered much impact, but some officials have been caught one after another. Today, people on your side were bribed by Shen Yi, tomorrow her side People were found out about disregarding human lives again. Anyway, up to now, Zhao Jie was jealous, and when the assassin was lost, he really started to suppress Zhao Chen crazily.

Zhao Chen didn't even find out where the assassin was being held. Of course, he didn't know that his father intervened to take the assassin away, because he found that Zhao Jie hadn't pushed the assassin out. She was balancing the situation and didn't want to leave unless she had to. It was the last step of the discussion with Wei Wei at the first banquet, but the situation that was okay before suddenly became unbalanced because of Zhao Jie's madness, and it hurt to be bitten, Zhao Chen also felt Zhao Jie's madness, she was worried that Zhao Jie would take the lead If the assassin handed over, he simply wanted Zhao Chen to be convicted of the crime.

The fight between the two was in full swing, and in the palace, the emperor fell into hesitation.

I said it was fierce before, but if I really want to do it, I can't help but feel unbearable.He doesn't have many heirs, and even fewer can inherit the throne, not even one palm is full.

Originally he was optimistic about the boss, after all, he was the child he brought up by himself. Although there were some flaws in his personality, Gaozu was like this at that time, with a very violent temper. It's just that the boss lacked a little, and he didn't learn his grandfather's coarseness and subtlety. It's a pity.Later, something happened to the boss, and he was cold-hearted, thinking that it would be better to watch it for a few more years. Now that these years have passed, Eleven hasn't grown up yet, and he hasn't finished weighing, these people are just like this They were rushing to snatch the crown prince, Zhao Yu had no doubts, if they had enough ability, they might not be snatching the crown prince, but the emperor directly.

Seeing these things clearly, the emperor was furious, and began to hesitate again.

The boss, the second child, the seventh child, and the eleventh child, there are only a few of Qianyang Jun’s children in total, and now they are all involved. The eldest and eleven are okay, one is fueling the flames, and the other is being framed, but Chen’er He and Jie'er were really fighting, Chen'er assassinated him first, and bit his brother later, he had committed a serious crime, while Jie'er first shielded the assassin, made trouble for Eleven, and then started fighting with the second child, There is no trace of brother-sister friendship in what they did.

These made Zhao Yu extremely disappointed.In the past, those brothers and sisters who were respectful and affectionate were all pretended. Maybe Zhao Yu knew this in his heart, but he always didn't want to think about it.

But now they forced him to think about it!

But so what?He is not young anymore, and it is difficult to be ruthless when dealing with some things, especially when it involves his frail heir.

"Let's lock up the assassin first."

After saying these words tiredly, the emperor coughed violently, and spit out one or two brown blood clots. The palace people on both sides were shocked immediately, stepped forward to help, and asked for the imperial physician.

It was only a few days, but it seemed that many years had passed by suddenly, and he seemed to be ten years older than when he was in the spring search.

Let's take a look again, Ji'er can't really take the blame for this, and Chen'er's crimes will still be punished in the end, but he still needs to think about how to punish.

In the city of Chang'an, the drizzle continued, and the sky was always covered by light gray dark clouds. It became a luxury to clear the sky, and it was a little dark everywhere.To some extent, it complements the gloomy atmosphere in the court today.

Zhao Chen took time to meet with the eldest prince's concubine Su Bai.

She and Zhao Jie fought so hard, in order to strike first, Zhao Jie was arrested yesterday, because she ordered someone to report that he was the mastermind of assassinating His Majesty, and she secretly hid the assassin of Chunsou that day, so the Seventh Prince The mansion, some of Zhao Jie's farms, and properties in Chang'an have all been searched, and no results have been obtained yet, but as long as one walks through, there will be traces left. Zhao Chen believes that Zhao Jie can't do it cleanly, and therefore, She took a breath, and then set her eyes on Zhao Ji.

It was a helpless move to agree to Wei Chuyan that day, she was aware of Zhao Ji's threat to her, and she didn't intend to really implement the plan made with Wei Chuyan.But now, thanks to that lunatic Zhao Jie, she still inevitably went to the opposite of Zhao Jie.

Another annoying thing.

Although she had barely gained the upper hand, she would not ignore that Zhao Ji was about to be cleared of the charges.

Concubine Wan Gui rescued her before, and Zhao Ji was wronged and imprisoned later. Once Zhao Ji's charges are cleared, her father's favor must follow. She has already consumed too much energy in this innocent disaster. Strength, if Zhao Ji rises again, what will she use to compete with Zhao Ji?

Fighting Zhao Jie is to protect herself, but now that she has a breath, she has to turn around and deal with Zhao Ji immediately, otherwise, Eleven will really step on her and Lao Qi's body to climb up.

Lao Qi is really a stupid ass, let's forget about making such a bad situation, and still confuse her afterwards.

Zhao Chen regretted sending assassins during the spring search very much.If you don't send someone to go, it will be a fight between the seventh and the eleventh.

The opportunity has been lost, and the vitality has also been hurt. If Zhao Chen wants to get rid of Zhao Ji, but also doesn't want to burn himself, he can only use the situation.

Boss, haven't you been moving much?

After spending some time in the room with Su Bai, because he left a little pheromone, he gave Su Bai the medicine to detoxify the pheromone. The other party naturally complained to her, but she didn't care about it, she just Concerned about the role Su Bai can play after returning.

This man has liked her for a long time, and even entered the First Prince's Mansion because of her, he forced himself into a world in that ferocious territory, and became one of the very few people who did not turn into a corpse and send it out.

Maybe Zhao Ao would not listen to the words of others, but Su Bo was an exception. She asked Su Bo to persuade the eldest prince to kill Shi Yi, which was worth a hundred counselors.

After sending Su Bai away, Zhao Chen's complexion suddenly became gloomy, she sniffed the scent on her body, went straight to the hot spring pool in the back mountain without saying anything.

While washing and washing, she remembered the flash of aggressive pheromone when she confronted Wei Chuyan earlier, her face gradually flushed, and then she thought of the current situation, lost interest again, washed it hastily, and went to the meeting hall again.

For the eldest prince, Su Bai's persuasion really worked.

Zhao Ao trusts Su Bai.Su Bai has been with him for many years, from a tender young boy to a young man with grown bones, this Kunyin Lord has given everything to him, and he has been around him all the time.During the most difficult period when he was deposed, others avoided him, but Su Bai himself sent him to ask him to whip him, so that he could vent his depression.For Su Bai, he really dotes on him.Even this struggle, he did not hide it from Su Bai.

But when Su Bo proposed to assassinate His Highness the Eleventh, Zhao Ao still refused.

Taking advantage of the situation to put pressure on his younger sister and directly assassinating his younger sister are two different things. He suffered a loss once and became much calmer in doing things. Now he is not willing to take risks.

Besides, he doesn't care about others, he always has some friendship with Eleven.

But the word "friendship" cannot hold back Su Bai's two mouths.

"Now the direction of the court has been changing. His Eleventh Highness was suppressed before, but now it seems that His Seventh Highness may be finally convicted. Then His Eleventh Highness will be released, and His Majesty will definitely compensate her. Besides , the imperial concubine has already woken up, one of their mother and daughter has made meritorious service in saving him, and the other has a grievance, what if His Majesty feels distressed and gives up that position?"

The First Prince listened, his heart gradually turned cold.

"Master, this is the last chance. The Seventh Highness is at the end of his rope. We might as well pretend that the assassin was ordered by him, or simply drag the Second Highness into trouble."

Of course Su Bai didn't want the eldest prince to dump the assassin to Zhao Chen, but he had to do what he had to do. He knew that after he said that, Zhao Ao would still consider the seventh prince first.

"Let me think again."

After thinking and thinking, the elder brother still drew the knife from his waist and showed a cold light at the younger sister.

Zhao Ji didn't know anything about the outside world.She didn't know how far Wei Chuyan's plan had progressed, but since the fourth trial in Dali Temple was delayed, everything outside should be smooth.

Life in prison is not easy, the environment that makes her bones feel cold and aching is second to none, not to mention the wailing that occasionally wakes her up, the loneliness of being alone in the dark is still bearable.

Physical suffering is never as good as mental training.

These days, what torments her the most is worry about the health of the concubine mother and whether the external plan will be implemented smoothly.

However, with the arrival of an unexpected guest, she knew that she was about to go out.

The author has something to say: Human nature is very contradictory.Moreover, it is always changing, not never changing.

Every emperor is different, like Emperor Wu, one has many sons, and the other is more bloodthirsty, but even so, he did not kill the prince in the disaster of witchcraft, the prince committed suicide.

Zhao Yu is not the same.

Thick and long!It's two in one.The third one is around 11:30.
