Queen is the top

He Mingcheng sat leisurely in the military tent, glanced at the letter sent by King Qi, and smiled triumphantly.

Zhang Ni and Zhang Ping, who were beside him, looked at each other, and the conspiracy was circulating in each other's eyes. Zhang Ping said to He Mingcheng, "Elder Prince, how is it? What did King Qi say?"

He Mingcheng snorted, but didn't answer, he just said, "Have you found out He Jingyi's whereabouts?"

Zhang Pingdao, "Not yet, Jingzhong only said that he was sick and failed to go to court, the princess took leave of absence to take care of the prince herself, the eldest prince said that he came to Lingnan, but our people searched for a long time but could not find any trace of the prince. "

He Mingcheng narrowed his eyes, "Disease? With He Jingyi's martial arts, how can he easily get sick? Send more people to find He Jingyi. If it is true that He Jingyi came to Lingnan as King Qi said, then he cannot be allowed to escape alive. gone."

Zhang Ping said, "Of course it is", Zhang Ni said, "The eldest prince trusts the King of Qi so much? He doesn't have other plans, right?"

He Mingcheng snorted, "Even if he has a plan, so what, Zijin teaches people to punish him, they are already living in the world, let alone those people, what are you afraid of, they just want to use his hands to do something for me. something that cannot be done."

Zhang Ni was startled, "What the eldest prince means is."

A cold look appeared in He Mingcheng's eyes, "If Emperor Father and He Jingyi die at the hands of the rebels, who should be the logical successor to the throne?"

Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni looked surprised and looked at each other without saying a word, just said, "The eldest prince is wise."

He Mingcheng smiled complacently, "Find He Jingyi first, kill him and his treasure, and kill all the people who came with him. When the time comes, I will write an urgent letter to Emperor Father, only saying that He Jingyi and Shi Yu Qing died at the hands of the rebels. We pretended to attack the city. King Qi sent an army under him to attack Changping Capital from Jiangdong. My grandfather and I sent the army back to Changping Capital in the name of calming the chaos. As long as we Arrive after the rebellion, put down the rebellion at the right time, and then cooperate with uncle inside and outside, then I will be able to say things well..."

He didn't finish his sentence but his meaning was clear. Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni were startled when they heard this, knowing that He Mingcheng was determined to kill his father.

But the two of them also had calculations in their minds. This kind of plan was definitely not something that He Mingcheng could come up with. It must have been the idea of ​​King Qi. Before, they had heard that King Qi was insidious and cunning, full of treacherous schemes. Seeing him today, the rumors were true.

Zhang Pingdao, "Prince, please consider carefully. If King Qi is allowed to attack Changping Capital one step ahead, and counterattack our army at that time, wouldn't it be let him take advantage of it first?"

He Mingcheng waved his hands and said, "The three kings and their remnants have been hunted down by the emperor for so many years, and the Zijin Sect has been developing in secret. How can it be successful? If he can really attack Changping Capital, it will save me a lot of trouble." , if only He Jingyi dies, I am afraid that the emperor will not let me succeed."

Zhang Ping was puzzled, "Why? Once the crown prince dies, in the long run, the eldest prince should succeed to the throne."

He Mingcheng said quietly, "Hmph, he confines me and my concubine mother and concubine over and over again without showing any sympathy. Now that the empress is the only one in the palace, I don't know how many winds have blown in his ears to bewitch father. Even if He Jingyi is dead, with father's An indecisive character, there will still be variables, since you are determined to do it, you must succeed."

Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni were trusted generals sent by He Mingcheng's grandfather. He Mingcheng had known them in the early years and trusted them. He told them his plan one by one, "The most important thing right now is to kill He Jingyi. It is the biggest variable in this plan, if He Jingyi can't be killed, this plan can't be carried out, in order to prevent Ye Changmeng from having more dreams, He Jingyi must be killed!"

Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni saw his cruelty and quickly nodded in agreement.

He Mingcheng nodded in satisfaction, sat behind the case and began to write, "I wrote two letters, and you two ordered someone to take them to grandfather and uncle quietly. Remember, be careful!"

After He Mingcheng finished writing the letter, he handed it to Zhang Ni and Zhang Ping to deliver the letter. He and King Qi jointly searched for He Jingyi's whereabouts intensively.

On this day, because He Mingcheng could not be found, He Jingyi was venting his anger on Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni, scolding them for being useless, He Mingcheng was having a good time cursing, when suddenly someone reported that the emperor's imperial decree had arrived.

He Mingcheng was taken aback for a moment, wondering why Cheng Yingzong suddenly sent him an imperial decree. Before he had time to think about it, he hurriedly led Zhang Ping, Zhang Ni and others out of the tent to greet him. He Mingcheng and others broke out in a cold sweat when they walked out of the tent.

The person who delivered the imperial decree was none other than He Jingyi.

All the generals in the army knelt down on the ground, and He Mingcheng glared at Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni, and then stepped forward to He Jingyi in feigned surprise, "His Royal Highness."

He Jingyi was riding on a horse, hugging Shi Yuqing in front of him, looking down at He Mingcheng coldly, the corner of his mouth curled up in disdain, that haughty look made He Mingcheng furious, and he couldn't do it right away, so he could only bear it .

He Mingcheng said, "I don't know if the prince came to welcome me, but I also ask the prince and princess to move to the tent to rest."

He Jingyi smiled coldly, "No need."

After finishing speaking, he pulled away the silk cloth in his hand, revealing a roll of bright yellow brocade silk, held it high above his head, and said loudly, "Emperor Dacheng has ordered that the crown prince He Jingyi take over the Zhennan Army, and the evidence of the rebellious son He Mingcheng's collusion with the rebel army is convincing, escort him immediately Return to Beijing!"

As soon as his words came out, there was a lot of discussion in the army. He Mingcheng, Zhang Ping, and Zhang Ni were shocked. He Mingcheng pointed at He Jingyi and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

He Jingyi held up the bright yellow scroll and said, "This is the decree of my father, what else do you have to say?"

He Mingcheng was about to speak, but He Jingyi gave an order, "Come and arrest these three traitors!"

Although the Zhennan army was not as numerous as the Hussar General's iron cavalry, they were all soldiers and horses of Cheng Yingzong.

Then the general sent Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni along with a thousand cavalry for He Mingcheng's envoy. He became the commander of the Zhennan Army.

The Zhennan army was originally dissatisfied, seeing the prince and the imperial decree, they naturally obeyed the emperor's order, and several generals got up and went forward to arrest He Mingcheng and others.

He Mingcheng roared, "Wait! You don't know whether this decree is true or not, so why arrest me?! He Jingyi, why do you slander me so much?!"

He Jingyi glanced at him, and indifferently unfolded the imperial decree to show it to the people. Everyone looked intently, and found that it was indeed covered with a jade seal. Although the few lines of words could not be clearly read, they could tell that it was indeed as He Jingyi said, that Cheng Yingzong wanted to arrest him. He Mingcheng.

He Mingcheng said angrily, "Which villain has slandered and framed in front of the father, if there is no evidence, Mingcheng will not accept it!"

He Jingyi snorted coldly, and took out two secret letters from his bosom, "Framed? This letter is very clear, why did you frame it?"

He Mingcheng looked up, his body was almost unsteady, and what He Jingyi was holding was actually a secret letter he had handed to the General and Jiang Shilang. In order to let his grandfather and uncle know the urgency of the matter, he stuck a stick in the envelope. feather.

This He Mingcheng suffered the most in his life because of his impatience. He saw that the letter had obvious signs of being opened, and his face was ashen.

He Mingcheng was covered in cold sweat from shock, and immediately panicked. He looked towards Zhang Ping and Zhang Ni. These two people were also shocked and lost their minds. They looked at He Mingcheng innocently, and thought to themselves, this letter was clearly sent out of Lingnan, why is it in the hands of the prince? superior? !

The two were still calm, and said to He Mingcheng in a low voice, "Prince, the situation is unfavorable. Your Highness has been wronged for a few days, and when the general receives the news, he will definitely come to rescue the prince."

He Mingcheng yelled at the two of them: "You two idiots are not good at doing things! The letter has been intercepted, how does grandfather know! When he finds out, Mingcheng will know that he is still alive!"

He Jingyi watched him lose his temper, and waved to everyone calmly, and the Zhennan Army was ordered to go forward immediately to arrest He Mingcheng.

Where is He Mingcheng willing to agree, he drew out his saber and wanted to kill the soldiers who came forward to bind him.
