Demon girl, don't even think about my ruthlessness!

Prince Yi's mansion was built by Emperor Xuanyi before the second prince became an adult. The carved beams and painted buildings in the mansion, blue bricks and gray tiles, show the emperor's beauty everywhere.

The home is magnificent and magnificent, occupying hundreds of acres of the best land in the capital.

Even the wooden beams used in the construction are the best and latest tributes, so Prince Yi's Mansion is one of the few houses in the capital that has not collapsed.

Prince Yi, that is, the second prince Xuan Hanyi was not in danger in this disaster. At most, when he got off the beautiful concubine's bed, he fell because he stepped on his trousers, and there was a bag on his head.

The maidservant at the side was sweating coldly, and carefully rubbed the medicine on the second prince. Although the second prince was gentle and respectful outside, only the people in the mansion knew the second prince's true nature, and he was vicious and furious.

He beat and scolded his subordinates if he disagreed with him. On the day when the emperor appointed the eldest prince as the crown prince, the mansion carried away a few servants. They died of a sudden illness, but all the servants in the mansion knew what was going on.

The more careful you are, the easier it is to get nervous and make mistakes.

The second prince, Xuan Hanyi, was talking to his staff.

"What did you say? Father was hit on the head during the earthquake, and now he is unconscious. Are those imperial doctors all trash?!" The second prince Xuan Hanyi patted the table with fierce eyes.

As one of the second prince's staff, Zhou Pengshi, the Minister of Honglu Temple, was supported by the second prince when he was a poor boy. Even if he knew that the monarch he followed was an irritable and narrow-minded person, he had no choice but to follow him.

Lu Hei Lu went to death.

What's more, it's not that the second prince has no chance of ascending the throne. The prince is indecisive, lacks the overbearing power of a monarch, and appears mediocre.

Leaving aside the furious character of the second prince Xuan Hanyi, the respectful and virtuous corporal he showed to the outside world is true. He has always respected and respected his staff and listened to their opinions.

The reason why Zhou Pengshi, who was the official fourth-rank minister of Honglu Temple, was still willing to obey the orders of the second prince.

Zhou Pengshi frowned and said: "Second Prince, the Holy Majesty suddenly fell into a coma. If he can't wake up for a while, it means that the government will change in the future. It is very likely that the Crown Prince will temporarily take over as the Holy Majesty.

I am afraid that government affairs will be very unfavorable to us. "

When the second prince Xuan Hanyi heard about it, his expression changed instantly: "That guy Xuan Hanhou must not be allowed to succeed! Otherwise all our layouts will be ruined, and those princelings will definitely take advantage of this time to join us.

With the opportunity of the government, we will not leave any room to attack our forces! "

Zhou Pengshi, as the second prince's party, must be one of the people who were suppressed. After climbing from a poor family to the current position of power, he must not let the rest of the people destroy it.

Zhou Pengshi's eyes flashed fiercely, and he lowered his voice and said, "Just in case, please ask the second prince to ask your grandfather, Li Guogong, for some help. It is best to send some soldiers to station near the palace.

I remember that Lu Zhe, Li Guogong's former subordinate, was a bodyguard, responsible for guarding the entrance and exit of the palace..."

The second prince Xuan Hanyi shook his spirits, and suddenly realized that Zhou Pengshi wanted him to use the strength and power of his grandfather Li Guogong to launch a coup and win the throne before the prince formally took power.

I have to say that this arrangement suits his appetite too much. He is really fed up with the meek guy of the prince. He doesn't understand why his father wants to appoint a mediocre and incompetent prince as the prince.

How could it compare to that guy Xuan Hanhou!Just because he is the first prince, older than him? !

ridiculous!

He, Xuan Hanyi, will prove to his father that he is the only one who is qualified to be the ruler of Xuan Kingdom!

The second prince Xuan Hanyi: "Very good, then the prince will find Li Guogong right away."

The maid who was still rubbing the medicine for the second prince by her side, did not expect that the master would suddenly talk about the matter of treason in front of her, she felt panicked and uneasy, the more nervous she was, the more her hands became disobedient.

The cotton cloth rubbed against the broken skin and hooked the flesh and blood inside. Xuan Hanyi gasped in pain for a moment, his eyes became ferocious and terrifying.

smash.

"You lowly maidservant, you can't use your brain or your hands, you dare to hurt this prince, you are looking for death!" Xuan Hanyi's eyes were narrow and cold, and he flew into a rage.

The servant girl was hit with blood all over her head, her head buzzed and she couldn't open her eyes, her eyes flashed past the hem of her scarlet clothes, she knelt on the ground in fear, begging for mercy: "I'm sorry, master, servant girl

It wasn't intentional, I begged the master to spare the slave. "

Xuan Hanyi raised his hand, but he thought that his subordinate Zhou Pengshi would be beside him, so he couldn't show his violent side, and when he was holding his breath and wanted to let this ignorant maid go, Zhou Pengshi spoke out.

Zhou Pengshi climbed from a poor body to the position of a fourth-rank official. No matter what, he has experienced more than ten years in the officialdom. If the words just now were heard by outsiders, the consequences would be disastrous. Looking at the maidservant's eyes

It also became colder.

Although the second prince, Xuan Hanyi, seemed violent and ruthless, he was not sensitive to politics, and he was not ruthless when he should be ruthless, and he needed his subordinate to push him.

Zhou Pengshi said in a low voice: "Second prince, are you sure this maid is ours?"

The second prince Xuan Hanyi: "Is it ours? Isn't this maid from my house... Wait, Zhou Pengshi, do you mean that this bitch might have been sent by someone else?"

Zhou Pengshi bowed his hands and said: "I'm not sure, but just in case, I ask the second prince to cut the grass and root out."

The maidservant at the side understood, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Master! Master! This servant is a child of the family, and has been working in the prince's mansion for generations. She is innocent and definitely not sent by others. I beg you

The master spared the maidservant's life, I didn't hear anything today, and I don't know anything! "

It's useless to say anything, the second prince Xuan Hanyi also understood what Zhou Pengshi meant, and his eyes were full of killing intent.

"Drag it out..."

The second prince Xuan Hanyi threw away the dagger in his hand, and the attendants outside carried the body out. As usual, he died of a sudden illness with the same excuse.

"Zhou Qing's family, what excuse do you think the prince will use to pull the prince down?"

Zhou Pengshi thought of a poisonous plan, and made the second prince Xuan Hanyi applaud, "Okay, let's do as Zhou Qing's family said! After the matter is completed, one of the prime ministers will be left to Zhou Qing's family."

Prime Minister, the most powerful official with one person above ten thousand, if he was a farm boy who was farming the fields, he could be a prime minister one day, then his life would not be in vain.

Zhou Pengshi couldn't help feeling hot in his heart: "Then, I thank Your Highness."

in the palace.

Crown Prince Xuan Hanhou was glaring at him with a medicine bowl in his hand, and the second prince brought many officials from the court with him and scolded: "Xuan Hanyi, you brought so many people because you want to disturb the emperor

recuperating? ! "

The second prince, Xuan Hanyi, glanced at the medicine bowl in the crown prince's hand, and said with a sneer, "This prince is here to save the life of the emperor, if you didn't want to ascend the throne as soon as possible, you wouldn't have poisoned the emperor's medicine.

You made your father unconscious, Prince, you are so insidious and vicious, you won't even let your own father be spared! "

The crown prince Xuan Hanhou was puzzled and said: "Xuan Hanyi, what are you talking about? How could Gu go to harm the emperor!"

Many officials also have princelings, and one of the officials defended the prince: "Second prince, you can't talk nonsense. The prince has a noble status, and he can ascend to the throne step by step. There is no reason for this.

Do. "

The prince Xuan Hanhou also came to his senses, looking at his second younger brother who usually confronted him tit for tat, with disappointment and resentment in his eyes: "Second brother! I have no reason to do this, let alone have such a vicious heart

this way!If you think that by framing Gu Yu in an unjust place like this, you can ascend to the throne, you are so wrong! "

The second prince, Xuan Hanyi, was in a hurry, and shouted: "Come here! Catch this unconscious prince who poisoned and murdered his father, and put him in prison!"

A group of guards approached menacingly, and the ministers also felt that something was wrong. They looked at the ferocious second prince, and on the other side was the mediocre and pale prince. Following the first person's footsteps,

Then, except for the people from the second prince's party, the rest of the ministers, whether they were princelings or not, surrounded the prince.

Officials: "Second prince, this matter needs to be investigated. As the crown prince of a country, the prince must not be imprisoned easily."

The second prince laughed back angrily, grinned grinningly, looked at the eyes of many ministers with increasingly gloomy coldness, and said coldly: "Are you trying to shield the prince?!"

……

"Stop! Who are you?" The burly man with the flat head and the animal skin around his waist looked at Yan Qing and the others warily, followed by a group of soldiers also wearing weapons.

Yan Qing and Xuan Hanyue looked at each other, and frowned in unison. Under Yan Qing's hint, Xuan Hanyue put on a hood to cover her face, and hid herself among the servants' guards.

After the earthquake, they survived by luck, but the sending team and guards lost personnel, and many belongings and horses were lost in the earthquake, perhaps falling into the cracks and buried deeply by the soil

Woke up.

No one expected that there would be an earthquake, and they didn't have much food. They even killed and ate the lame horses in the team for food rations, so they barely survived the ten-day journey.

That's right, it has been more than ten days since the big earthquake.

The landform of the border has undergone earth-shaking changes. The original landform map has become a piece of waste paper. Everyone relied on the method of stargazing at night to come here in twists and turns. The food is about to run out.

Almost to the point of desperation.

Now that they don't know what's going on outside, Yan Qing and the others plan to find the officials at Yanmen Pass on the border, take a rest before making other plans.

Unexpectedly, after going around, the first group of people they encountered were Turks, with rough yellow faces, wild and tall dresses, leather armor with patterns imprinted on the interior of Turks, and hanging around their waists.

With a big machete, even fierce.

Yan Qing came forward, pretending to be a passing businessman, and said with a kind smile: "We are all businessmen from Xuanguo. We originally wanted to do some small reselling business at the border, but we didn't expect that when the earthquake hit, the goods would be destroyed."

I have lost a lot, and my food and water are almost exhausted. I want to come to this treasure land and make a deal with your brother in exchange for some water and food. "

Ba also took a critical look at the carriages of Yan Qing and the others. There were originally hundreds of carriages, carrying countless mouth-watering jewelry, as well as tea, cloth and other materials most needed by the Turkic side.

, now there are not one out of ten, only a dozen or so carriages are left, and some of the horses still have injuries to their feet.

Ba Yeshi opened his mouth wide, pointed at the carriage, and said with disdain in his eyes: "Ten carriages are exchanged for one cart of grain, that's enough!"

The ten carriages here are so expensive, not to mention the mere food, as long as you take any piece of jewelry from Xuan Hanyue's dowry, you can exchange for a whole car of food.

Of course, Yan Qing and others are unwilling. If these ten expensive carriages are seen by the Turkic people, living in the barren area, the greedy Turkic people will definitely not buy all the next carriages in order to monopolize them.

You won't let them go easily.

Yan Qing wanted to bargain, but suddenly a Turkic soldier said something in Ba Ye's ear, and Ba Ye's greedy eyes closed, and he became a little jealous.

Ba also walked up to Yan Qing, with a playful look on his face, and said with a smirk, "Since the princesses are here, how can you come out and not see our Turkic First Prince, your future husband?"

Yan Qing's brows sank, he didn't expect the matter to be exposed so quickly, the Turkic soldiers must have noticed something just now.

Seeing that Yan Qing and the others didn't admit it, Ba didn't care. He walked to one of the carriages and swiped the machete at his waist, revealing the neatly stacked silk fabrics inside.

The skin is as soft as a girl, and silk is said to be more expensive than gold among the Turkic nobles.

Ba also touched the silk fondly, his eyes greasy and greedy: "Such a beautiful luster, it really is silk, I only saw Khan wear it at a party, it looks like the upper

It was worn by other people. I heard that what Khan wore was a tribute. I still remember that the luster color is the same as now, and only the extravagant Xuanguo royal family is the only one who can come to the Turkic side.

The third princess will come with a carriage of silk that is more expensive than gold. "

"Come here, escort the third princess and her entourage to Prince Ashina safely!" Ba Ye said.

Seeing the Turkic people approaching, Xuan Hanyue was surrounded by the remaining servants and guards, Ba Ye was as keen as a greedy hungry wolf, he saw through Xuan Hanyue's true identity at a glance, and brought the Turkic people with him.

The soldier walked straight towards Xuan Hanyue.

Yan Qing lightly pressed the hilt of the sword with his fingers, and took half a step with his left foot, blocking Ba Ye's path.

"The deal has not been concluded, do you want to run away?" Yan Qing's eyes were like unsheathed sharp swords, flashing with cold killing intent, staring at the menacing Ba Ye.

Ba Ye was also aroused a bit bloody, showing his sharp white teeth, pulled out the big scimitar, and said contemptuously: "It depends on your ability to keep me!"
