I have a book to play

Xie Zhang has been kept in the East Palace like a puppet since he was inhumane.

But everyone knows that he can still stay in the East Palace as a disabled prince today, but it is because Emperor Xihe has not yet selected a new prince.

Inside and outside the court, all forces are ready to move, not only the Queen Wang pushed Xie Yu, but also several other princes also sent their eldest sons to the capital, and sent them to the Queen Mother, hoping to get the moon first, so that they can be called Emperor Xihe Palm palm eye, so as to choose his son to succeed the crown prince.

The infighting between the nephews and nephews did not affect the innocence of the women in the East Palace who had left offspring for Xie Zhang.

The emperor's grandson who has the blood of the prince has the qualifications to succeed no matter how he looks at it.

It was as if Ke Xi and Di had closed their eyes, they didn't get close to each other, and they didn't say anything.The concubines in the harem hinted from all sides that what they got in the end was nothing but the coldness from the emperor.

It was at this time that Xie Zhang finally realized that if he didn't do anything else, he might not be able to keep his status as the prince.

It is even possible that he will be completely treated as an abandoned child, and will be left in a corner and no one will care about him.

"You are fooling around!"

Xie Zhang looked at Wang Youzhi in front of him coldly.Given the relationship between him and the Queen, Xie Zhang should call "Grandpa", but His Royal Highness Prince Chu is not in such a good mood at the moment.

"Your Highness."

Wang Youzhi's voice was slightly cold, Xie Zhang frowned and sat up straight, but his expression was not respectful.

"Your Highness, do you know what you are doing?"

"It's just a marriage between Li and Li, and it's not a big deal." Xie Zhang raised his head, his eyes were sluggish, and he didn't have the energy of the past, "The lonely princess has become a monk, it is impossible for a lonely princess to keep the position of princess, Waiting for a woman who doesn't know how many years before she is willing to come back. If you want to be like Xie Chen, it will take more than ten years to become a monk, and you can't wait for Gu to ascend the throne. The lonely queen should still live in a nunnery as a nun."

Wang Youzhi stared at Xie Zhang for a while, and said, "What do you think, the inhuman prince?"

"So what? Gu has an heir! If Gu's son can't be used, Gu can still snatch other people's sons!"

"Of course your highness can do this." Wang Youzhi shook his head and said, "but why doesn't your highness think about it, if the Princess of Liguo really marries into the East Palace, and her bridal chamber is full of festive nights, His Highness can't make her a woman, how will your highness treat the people of Liguo? Confession."

"Da Chu is the supreme kingdom, why should he explain to a small kingdom!"

"Isn't Your Highness just trying to take care of the ten thousand cavalry?"

Wang Youzhi's words were loud and loud, but Xie Zhang couldn't speak for a while.

There are not many people who know that there are tens of thousands of cavalry, but such a small place can live well among several countries, and they must have their own secrets.

In history, no small country has survived for hundreds of years by relying on kinship and marriage.

Xie Zhang was standing on the edge of the cliff now, and Empress Wang had shifted all her focus to Xie Yu without any concealment. The only thing under Xie Zhang's command was the soldiers led by Yang Wei.But even for these personal soldiers, Queen Wang proposed several times to select elites and merge them into Xie Yu's subordinates.

Why did he give up everything that was at his fingertips to that kid?

Just because he can't be humane, can the kid be so young that he can control him, and even have a aunt after the Yuan Dynasty?

Xie Yu coveted the power in his hands, and now he has gradually grown from an inconspicuous little prince to a young man who can talk freely in front of others.Xie Zhang watched from the sidelines from the beginning to the end, the more he watched, the more frightened he became, and the more he watched, the more he felt that he could no longer be allowed to develop.

"No matter what you want to do, you have to remember that if you let Xie Chen reap the benefits of being a prince, His Highness will only end in a worse situation. At least, with the kindness of the Queen's upbringing, the third prince will not do anything to His Highness .”

Xie Zhang's expression was slightly condensed, he watched Wang You's words, and then left. After a long time, he said coldly: "Could it be that if Xie Yu becomes the prince and emperor, my fate will be fine?"

But they're all liars.

Xie Zhang didn't listen to Wang Youzhi's words at all.

For him, power is a good thing only if it is in his own hands.If it is in the hands of others, it is called a threat.

The envoys of the Li Kingdom have been living in the post house, and the people from the Honglu Temple have been accompanying them all the time.Xie Zhang secretly stole the envoy several times, and exchanged marriage certificates with the envoy without telling everyone.

Liguo is not a big country, and there is no such thing as three media and six hires. Just the benefits promised in Xie Zhang's words shocked the envoy's heart.

As for Xie Zhang's situation, the envoy naturally paid more attention to go outside to find out.The envoy was also a little hesitant about the news of the inquiry at the beginning. After all, he was inhumane, how could he be worthy of the princess.But then I remembered that the princess who was married was just a tool thrown by the king, and the princess who was not favored did not need to take into account the good and bad of marriage.

Thinking about it this way, the marriage was secretly settled.Just waiting for Xie Zhang to solve the problem of the crown princess, the envoy will set off to return to the country to prepare for the princess's wedding.

Naturally, Emperor Xihe objected to Xie Zhang's reconciliation with the Crown Princess.

Queen Wang may have heard something from Wang You. Although she felt sorry for her son, she didn't want to give up Xie Yu, who was obviously more suitable to be a prince, for a son who was already useless. She also opposed his marriage right now.

Xie Zhang returned to the palace angrily, and after throwing all the porcelain in the house, a servant suddenly came to report, saying that the third prince had come.

"What are you doing here?" Xie Zhang had a grim expression.

Xie Yu took a step back subconsciously, as if he was a little afraid of him, then smiled wryly: "I don't know if I should talk to Brother Huang about something."

"What's the matter?"

"This matter is related to the Crown Princess."

Sun Peng came back from Yushitai and walked along the corridor to the bedroom.

The year is not over yet, but Yushitai has started to operate early.As the supervisory censor, he should set off again at this time, return to Jiangnan Dongdao, and continue to inspect the prefectures and counties.But because the matter of Ren Cuiyuan was still left to be dealt with, Yu Shitai has been keeping people.

On the way back to the bedroom, servants bowed and greeted him all the way.He nodded and walked, then suddenly stopped and asked, "Where is Your Highness?"

Sun Peng was not surprised to learn that Xie Chen was in Mrs. Sun's study.

After thinking about it, he decided to go back to the bedroom to change his official robes, and then go to the study to find someone.

Just as he took off his official robe, the closed door was pushed open from the outside.Sun Peng looked back, and Xie Chen closed the door with his backhand.

"What did grandfather tell you?"

He casually hung the official robes that he had taken off on the hanger, the middle clothes were pushed away, hot palms were stuck to the back of his waist, and a kiss fell on the neck.

"I'm talking about your sister's marriage."

Sun Peng has been busy at Yushitai these few days, and he was a little absent-minded. He originally planned to go to the nunnery to find sister after being busy for a while, but now he was a little surprised when he heard Xie Chen's words.

"Why did you suddenly bring up Sister's marriage again?"

"Xie Zhang wants to marry Princess Liguo as the crown prince."

Sun Peng turned his head.He knew about it, but what about the marriage?

Xie Chen took him into his arms, bowed his head and kissed his lips: "Pei Chu is not married yet."

The Pei family was exiled to Xizhou, and after all these years, if there were not more than ten Pei family members who survived in Xizhou.Sun Peng always knew that Pei Chu was still alive, but he never thought that Pei Chu was not married.

"he……"

"He has been thinking about your elder sister. In the past few years in Xizhou, he has neither married nor concubine."

Sun Peng was a little surprised.After all, the marriage between the Sun and Pei families did not go through three media and six employments. To be honest, it was just a verbal engagement between the two parties.

"What the old man means is, after your sister and Xie Zhang reconcile, find a reason to send her to Xizhou. It's a bit hard, but lovers get married, and with the help of the Sun family, always It’s better than separating the two places and being spoiled by the royal family.”

Sun Peng thought about it, and it was true. He was about to speak when the voice of wolfberry hurriedly came from outside the door.

"Shichiro! Shichiro!"

"what happened?"

The door slammed open, unable to care about why Qilang was still wearing a jacket, Goji jumped anxiously: "Er Niang is back!"

Sun Peng raised his eyebrows with joy, and was about to walk forward: "Isn't it a good thing for sister to come back? What are you in a hurry for?"

"Second Niang was carried back!"

*****

Sun Xian is copying scriptures in the nunnery as in the past in Japan today.

Since she married into the East Palace, she hasn't had such a leisurely life for a long time.Once I am free, I can't help but miss the excitement with Qilang Hachiro when I was not married.

When Xie Zhang came, she was just finishing copying a volume of scriptures. She had no idea that the one-night couple, Bai Yeen, as the saying goes, could easily try to force his wife to death in exchange for what she wanted when she arrived at Xie Zhang's place.

Fortunately, the maid who served Sun Xian on weekdays soon found out that the mad prince almost hanged the princess.

And after the prince was subdued, it was clear that the princess was not only strangled with a white silk around her neck, but stabbed several times severely.The maids and nuns in the nunnery were all panicked, and the only thing they could think of was to hastily bandage them up and send them back to the Sun Mansion.

Sun Peng only had time to grab Sun Xian's hand and say "Sister, wait for me", before rushing out of the Sun residence with red eyes.

Xie Chen knew where he was going, so he ordered Gou Qi to take the chariot and horses, and chased him to the palace gate.

With the escort of the eldest prince, Sun Peng almost drove straight in, and stood in front of the imperial study as easily as if he had entered the land of no one.

In the imperial study room, Emperor Xihe seemed to be discussing important matters with someone, the chief servant at the door did not dare to interrupt at will, seeing that Sun Peng and Xie Chen were in trouble.

"Your Highness, Lord Sun... If there is nothing important, just wait..."

Sun Peng gritted his teeth, took a few steps to the long steps, lifted his robe, and knelt down.

Xie Chen looked at him, until he raised his head to look at the imperial study room, and said loudly, "I have a book to play", and then knelt down together.

The head servant was a little at a loss, hesitantly looked back at the closed door, not knowing whether to send a message or not.

Naturally, this voice could be transmitted into the imperial study room, but there was something important inside, even if a little inspector censor shouted to see him, he would be able to let it in to meet His Majesty.

Sun Peng didn't know how Xihedi in the imperial study would react, he only knew that his heart hurt badly.

That was the elder sister he wanted to protect in his two lifetimes. He thought that if he avoided the East Palace and became a nun, he would be safe temporarily. How could he know...

He closed his eyes, knowing that Xie Chen was behind him, the pain in his heart faded away, but the grief and indignation in his heart could not be dissipated no matter what.

"The minister has a book to play! In the third year of Baoying, the elder sister Sun married into the East Palace as the princess. In the same year, the princess had a miscarriage for some reason. In the fourth year of Baoying, the prince fell ill. The princess prayed for the prince and became a nun. .Baoying five years..."

Sun Peng's voice was trembling.

"In the fifth year of Baoying, the prince suddenly came to the nunnery and threatened the elder sister to hang herself. The elder sister refused. The prince strangled her with white silk. The elder sister was not dead, but stabbed several times. The elder sister survived by luck, and the grandfather asked the imperial physician to come and treat her. As the son of the grandson family, I and my sister are born of the same mother, the brotherhood is indescribable. Your Majesty, I beg your majesty, please allow me to reconcile my sister and the crown prince, keep my sister's life, and let the Sun's family live!"
