The night was dark, and it was already late at night after Xiao Jingyan listened to Zhan Ying's report on the day's important affairs. Unexpectedly, at this time, a personal soldier came in outside the door to inform the servant of the household department, Shen Zhui, to visit.

Xiao Jingyan made a secret calculation in his heart, only to find that the emergency report of the disaster situation in Wuzhou arrived in Jinling in the past two days, and Shen Zhui should have come here to let him fight for the opportunity of disaster relief.

"Invite him in now."

Next, Xiao Jingyan didn't ask Shen Zhui to say anything more, and when he saw that the meaning was almost reached, he explained it clearly and agreed to his request.Although it is uncertain whether Emperor Liang can successfully win the opportunity, as long as the prefect of Yuezhou still gives gifts to King Yu, then King Yu will not be able to get involved in this errand.

Things did not go as Xiao Jingyan expected, even though he had won against King Yu in front of Emperor Liang, Emperor Liang preferred King Yu after all, and the task of disaster relief still fell on King Yu.

In a fit of anger, Shen Zhui wished for a thunder to hit Yu Wang on the head, seeing him like this, Xiao Jingyan only comforted him and told him not to worry.

Within two days, the Yuezhou magistrate's gift-giving incident broke out, and the rumors spread throughout the capital, not to mention the places that were severely affected by the disaster.With all the documents of the people and the people already handed over to his case, even if Emperor Liang wanted to protect King Yu, he still had to punish him a little.After this incident, the matter of disaster relief fell on Xiao Jingyan's head again.

After being reprimanded by Emperor Liang, King Yu lost his disaster relief work and lost his temper in the study. In the end, the whole person became decadent and simply spent his days on wine, getting drunk every day.

When Qin Banruo, who hadn't shown up at the event for a long time, came, what he saw was such a scene. The talented girl with red sleeves sneered and said:

"The so-called 'whoever wins a talented unicorn can win the world', Langya Pavilion is really not wrong at all!"

These words pierced deeply into King Yu's heart like a knife, he suddenly raised his head, stared at Qin Banruo with red eyes, and said angrily:

"What do you mean by that?"

Qin Banruo's starry eyes were deep and gloomy, as cold as ice, raised his delicate chin, gritted his teeth and said:

"When Jiangzuo Meilang first entered Beijing last fall, what was your Highness's situation, and what was Prince Jing's situation? Now more than a year has passed, what is Your Highness's current situation, and what is Prince Jing's situation? Isn't it obvious at a glance who gets the unicorn talent?"

Yu Wang fell back into his chair abruptly at what she said.Now that Qin Banruo has exposed it clearly, he just feels ashamed, almost everything in front of him is fake.

"Your Highness, don't have any more illusions. Prince Jing has obtained Mei Changsu. I have confirmed this matter. Does Your Highness still want me to show evidence?"

King Yu gritted his teeth fiercely, but didn't say anything.

"His Highness wants to deal with Prince Jing now. According to Prajna, if you don't deal with Mei Changsu and his Jiangzuo League first, you may not be able to defeat Prince Jing..."

King Yu took a look at her, as if he had already seen through her.

"Get rid of him first, it's easy to say. Now that your red-sleeved tricks have fallen to this point, he must have done it, right?"

These words were touching Qin Banruo's sore spot, and a smear of resentment flashed across her face unconsciously.

"As far as this round is concerned, I lost. But it doesn't matter if I lose, the key is that His Highness's great career cannot be ruined by this villain. Don't His Highness want to pay back the bad breath he deceived and used?"

"You want me to focus my energy on Mei Changsu and avenge him for ruining your red sleeve. I understand that. But the current situation is not more than a year ago. At that time, as long as Mei Changsu was killed, Jing The king will have no way out, but now my seventh younger brother is no longer in the pool. I can't repeat the same mistakes and let him grow up. Instead of attacking Mei Changsu first, it's better to take the bottom of the pot and deal with King Jing. Without a master, let him do whatever he wants. A unicorn genius, isn't he just like a wild dog that no one adopts?"

When Yu Wang said the last sentence, the viciousness was beyond his words, and even Prajna couldn't help but secretly startled, and asked calmly:

"Where does His Highness plan to start?"

"I don't know about Mei Changsu's weakness, but Prince Jing's pain is still not obvious. Why hasn't he been favored for more than ten years? Is he stupid? No. On the contrary, he has repeatedly made military achievements, but the emperor is I don't want to talk to him. Isn't the reason for that old case that is stuck in the hearts of their father and son, and no one is willing to give in..."

Qin Banruo squinted slightly, and nodded slowly.

"That's right, Prince Jing's sore spot is indeed the rebellious case between King Qi and the Chiyan Army."

"Now that my father is old, and Prince Jing has learned to be good, I no longer insist on it. Everyone quietly turns over that page and keeps it in their hearts. No one mentions it. But not mentioning it does not mean forgetting or recovering. Just find someone It's a good opportunity to find out again, it's still the deepest rift between the two of them... But I haven't figured out how to do it, it would be great if there is an opportunity now."

Prajna's crystal-like eyeballs rolled twice, and said slowly:

"I haven't seen the opportunity yet, but there is one person who must be happy to help His Highness at this time..."

"Who?"

"The head of Xuanjing Division——Xia Jiang."

When she said that, King Yu couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows.

"I'm afraid it won't work. Xuanjing Division has always had a tradition of not being involved in party disputes. In the past, I fought so fiercely with the crown prince, and he didn't..."

"It used to be before!"

Hannah quickly interrupted him.

"It's not surprising that he didn't intervene in your dispute with the prince, but now your opponent is King Jing. Xia Jiang is not a fool. He is very clear about the relationship between King Jing and Chi Yan's old man back then. Of course, he also remembers the case of the Chi Yanjun." Who is in charge of the investigation. To put it mildly, it is a knot in the heart, but to put it more seriously, it is hatred. No matter how loyal he is, he must also consider his future fate, right?"

Prajna's words could be said to be right in Yu Wang's arms, and he couldn't help rubbing his hands a few times, his eyes were a little excited.Xia Jiang's power is like a timely help to Yu Wang, whose current strength has been greatly weakened.

Seeing that King Yu was moved, Prajna smiled and said:

"If Your Highness wants to secretly test whether Xia Jiang intends to join forces, Prajna can help. I have a senior sister who is exactly Xia Jiang's old acquaintance..."

Tong Lu still went to Su Zhai to deliver information every other day, but recently his stay in Su Zhai was greatly reduced compared to before.His daily actions were much more impatient than before, which made Zhen Ping secretly suspicious.

After Mei Changsu found out, he couldn't help but give an extra order, asking Mr. Shisan to pay more attention to this aspect.After all, Tong Lu is his communication channel with the outside world, and most of the secrets are in his hands, so there must be no mistakes.

Because of the need to conceal his identity, Tong Lu lives in a neighborhood where the poor live together. The neighbors are all ordinary low-level people. They live extremely hard-working lives and rarely pay attention to others.

He has a neighbor, everyone calls her Mother Qiu. Recently, Mother Qiu has a niece named Junniang who came to join her from Wuzhou thousands of miles away.When she first found this neighbor, it was obvious that she had endured a lot of hard work along the way. Not only was she pale and thin, but she couldn't even speak clearly when asked, and she almost fainted on the street. It took a long time for everyone to ask. mother's.

Tong Lu happened to be passing by there at that time, and everyone asked him to give Juanniang a ride along the way.After the aunt and nephew met each other, they hugged their heads and cried a lot. After that, Niang Juan stayed at Mama Qiu's house.

Now that they have settled down, they have contacts in the neighborhood. Occasionally, Junniang will reveal some of her own situation. It seems that her husband died without a child, and the local bully intended to bully her, so she escaped overnight.Everyone saw that although she was thin and haggard, she was really a beauty, no wonder she was coveted by others, so everyone sympathized with her.

Thinking of the humiliation suffered by his younger sister in the past, Tong Lu empathized even more, and would go to help when he had time, and because Jun Niang was rescued by him at the beginning, she wanted to repay her, and often did some chores for him.The two inevitably come into contact.

Since a newcomer moved in, Mr. Shisan also investigated as usual, and found out that the first-time widow that Junniang said was not tolerated by the clan, bullies bullied each other, and escaped overnight, etc., were all true.Moreover, after Junniang came, she got up early and went to bed late every day, helped Qiu's mother to make sugar water and sold it. She could endure hardships and do many things. I didn't pay much attention to it.

After a month of recuperation, although life is hard, but the aunt is loving, the neighbors are harmonious, and the life is peaceful and peaceful. Niang Juan's mood is getting better and better, her yellow and thin face is gradually receding, and her whole person is becoming more and more charming, ordinary The Jingchai sarong can also bring out her elegance and beauty.

From time to time, Tong Lu would stare in a daze before her shy and timid eyes. If something happened and he didn't see her one day, his heart would feel lost, bitter and empty.But Juanniang didn't seem to have no feelings for him at all, sometimes she was affectionate, sometimes she was indifferent, that kind of charming mood, thousands of tenderness, unknowingly caused Tong Lu to be worried about her, fascinated...
