My emperor, long live!

The plan was finalized, Ning Qingcheng followed the secret guards to Pei Mo to resettle Qin Ran's house and protect Qin Ran, while Pei Mo went to gather his dead soldiers and guards hiding in the capital without touching the ground.

Ever since Pei Mo separated from her and sneaked into the inner city alone to make arrangements, Qin Ran was worried and restless. However, secret guards were arranged inside and outside the house, and she couldn't even step out the door.

Qin Ran wrinkled her small face into a small bun, propped her chin with one hand, and let out a long sigh: Pei Mo is always like this, every time he promises to live and die together, but at the critical moment, he picks her out and doesn't allow her to fight side by side. After all, she is also the female emperor of a country who has been in charge of the government. How can she be so delicate?

Pei Mo is making too much of a fuss!

Thinking of this, Qin Ran couldn't help slandering Pei Mo hundreds of times, her mouth pursed and sullen.

When Ning Qingcheng entered the room, he saw Qin Ran's irritable appearance, and covered his lips with a chuckle: "Why is the fifth princess sulking here alone?"

Qin Ran turned her head when she heard the words, and looked at Ning Qingcheng with doubts on her face, why did she suddenly appear here?It suddenly occurred to him that Pei Mo had said that he would meet with Ning Qingcheng first to find out the news, and he immediately realized that Ning Qingcheng was probably brought by Pei Mo.

"Boss Ning." Qin Ran immediately put on a smile, stepped forward to hold Ning Qingcheng's hand affectionately, raised a pair of bright eyes that were shining with water, and asked with a light smile, "Why are you here? Just you Is it human?" As he spoke, his eyes drifted, and he kept looking out of the door, his tone mixed with a little expectation.

Ning Qingcheng looked at Qin Ran, who was a few years younger than her, and regarded her as a younger sister in his heart. Seeing that she was full of satisfaction and missed Pei Mo, he couldn't help but curled his lips, and put his snow-white hand on the back of Qin Ran's slender and tender hand, Wen Yan said: "Pei Mo went to the palace to rescue Qin Zheng and Her Majesty the Empress. He couldn't get away. He was afraid that you would be bored in this house alone, so he asked me to talk to you."

Hearing that Pei Mo was about to sneak into the palace's cave, Qin Ran's eyes flashed with worry, and he said anxiously: "Pei Mo, is she crazy! There is my third sister, Qin Yue, in the palace, and Chen Yi, who is holding a heavy soldier outside. , those two people hated her deeply, and Pei Mo fought alone, if he was careless and fell into their hands, wouldn't he die in vain!"

Thinking of Chen Yi and Qin Yue's cruelty, Qin Ran's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't even imagine that something happened to Pei Mo. How should she deal with herself?

Sensing that Qin Ran was going to rush out of the room impulsively, trying to find Pei Mo, Ning Qingcheng quickly pulled her and analyzed softly: "All the soldiers in the city were taken to the north gate by Chen Yi, and the south gate was not only loosely guarded, There are still people on my own to respond, and I am afraid that it has fallen into Pei Mo's control at this time, how can those scattered groups of guards in the palace be able to help Pei Mo?"

Seeing that Qin Ran was still worried, he was worried about Chen Yi, and said again: "I know you are worried that Chen Yi will find out, but what can he do if he finds out? I'm afraid it's too late to dispatch too many people if he wants to rush back. Pei Mo acted quickly, I'm afraid Chen Yi brought Qin Zheng and the Queen to join us before returning to the palace, you are Pei Mo's closest person, can't you still trust her?"

Qin Ran listened to Ning Qingcheng's reasonable analysis, pondered for a moment, then lowered his eyes, and said sadly: "I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, it is because I have a close relationship with her and know her too well that I am so worried. .”

"She always demands perfection from herself, and she will never give up until she reaches her goal. Even if she is in danger and her life is in danger, she will never give up. Chen Yi regards Pei Mo as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh, and he is suspicious by nature. Let her take advantage of it easily?" Qin Ran clenched her fists, her eyes were firm, and she looked fearless, "If anything happens to her, I, Qin Ran, will never live alone! Sister Ning, I know I can't get out, but I would like to beg you, can you send some spies to help me keep an eye on Pei Mo's situation?"

How could Ning Qingcheng have the heart to refuse when she heard her soft words and saw that she had a deep-rooted love for Pei Mo?He had no choice but to nod, recruited his subordinates, and specially selected a few of the best martial artists to help Qin Ran keep an eye on Pei Mo's safety and Chen Yi's actions.

in the palace.

Qin Yue and Chen Yi were put under house arrest in the empress' bedroom after they had a big quarrel in the political hall. After hearing the news, Qu Huai hurried to the bedroom to persuade Qin Yue.

Qin Yue was still angry, and was beating and scolding innocent maids in the bedroom to vent her anger. He listened to the eunuch outside the door telling her father to ask for an audience. Come in.

As soon as Qu Huai entered the door, he screened off the guards inside and outside, and when he was sure that no one was eavesdropping, he said straight to Qin Yue: "Yue'er, I heard you fell out with Chen Yi?"

Qin Yue became very angry when she brought up this matter, and aggrievedly narrated the matter of Chen Yi's disrespect and disrespect for the queen: "Father, Yue'er doesn't understand that our Qu family is as rich as a country, and I have been secretly recruiting and cultivating horses all these years. My own forces, why do you want to cooperate with someone like Chen Yi who has wolf ambitions? Luring wolves into the house!"

Qu Huai has lived in the deep palace for decades, climbing all the way to the position of side king, it can be said that he has seen all the power struggles, and his eyes are naturally much longer than Qin Yue's. He curled his lips and smiled softly: "The matter of marching and fighting still needs to be guarded." Afterwards, the Qu family is very powerful, and they have never fought in the battlefield. Look at the eldest princess Qin Rong, who holds [-] soldiers, but was defeated by Pei Mo and Qin Zheng with more victories than Qin Zheng. Is her force not strong enough? No, Qin Rong's defeat was due to her lack of ability to lead the army, no matter how many soldiers are given to her, they are just a mob. The same goes for you and me."

Sighing regretfully, he continued: "Chen Yi is the son of a great general, and his ability to lead troops is comparable to that of Pei Mo. We can use him to take the lead and eradicate Chu Yunxi, a foreign enemy. Worried about the failure of the great cause? As for the struggle for imperial power, how can Chen Yi, a military general, compare to those of us dignitaries who are fighting endlessly in the deep palace day and night? The days are long, and Chen Yi can be slowly defeated."

When Qin Yue heard the words, she was suddenly enlightened. What her father said was right. Between Chen Yi and Chu Yunxi, Chu Yunxi was naturally more important. No matter how the internal struggles of the Qin Kingdom were fought, the people of the Qin Kingdom would rule the world, but Chu Yunxi Thinking of annexing the Qin Kingdom and expanding the territory and power of the Liuli Kingdom, if she succeeds, what will happen to the Qin people?

However, Chen Yi's prestige in the army is due to his father. He is not as important as Pei Mo to the Chinese officials. Chen Yi does not have a strong backer. When she takes power, is she afraid that she will not be able to deal with an ordinary official?

"Father, what should we do now? Reconcile with Chen Yi?" Qin Yue asked in a deep voice.

Qu Huai had been prepared for a long time, and said with a light smile, "He wants to deal with Chu Yunxi, so we will wholeheartedly help him make suggestions."
