"Can you still see this?" Jiang Ling was curious.

The old man took a sip of his wine: "You two have a good relationship, so you can tell. Besides, even brothers, there are very few who can take care of the young like this."

Jiang Ling thought of Zhan Lezhang and Dingyuan Hou Shizi, and sighed, "I'm not as sharp as your eyes."

"It's also because you didn't hide it. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to see it at a glance."

Jiang Ling thought, yes, Zhan Lezhang used to be scruples about his identity and had preconceived notions, he couldn't see that it was normal.

After the meal, the two sides said goodbye, Jiang Ling and Xiao Shengyun walked around a few more places and bought some small things before going back.

Princess Shuhui and her son-in-law were all accompanying them in the palace, and when they returned, Jiang Ling saw An An and Cheng Yuze.

An An took Cheng Yuze by the hand and was talking to him when she saw Jiang Ling and Xiao Shengyun walking in casual clothes, she hurriedly stopped talking and ran towards them.

Jiang Ling caught An An who was running: "What is An An doing?"

"My brother and I were going to play with Uncle Jiang, but they said you were out, and my brother and I were going to find you."

"An'an knows where my majesty and I went?" Jiang Ling squatted down, eyes level with An'an.

An An froze for a moment, and said, "I don't know."

"I don't know where An An plans to find us?"

An An realized her recklessness after a while.

Jiang Ling patted his head: "If you want to find us in the future, you can send someone to pass the message. You are still young, don't run around."

"An'an knows."

Jiang Ling got up, took An An's little hand, and told the palace servants next to her to send a message to Princess Shuhui, lest she worry about not finding her child.

After walking a few steps, I bumped into the Ninth Prince who came in a hurry.

Seeing the safe and sound child, the Ninth Prince was relieved.

"Are you here to find them?"

The Ninth Prince nodded: "Sister Huang just sent someone to say that An An was gone, and asked me if I saw it. I searched around but couldn't find it. Fortunately, they are here."

"I have ordered people to send a letter to Princess Shuhui, they want to come and play with me."

"An'an," the Ninth Prince scowled, "You can't run around in the future, do you know?"

"Even if you bring brother with you, father and mother will worry about you."

"I see," An An said with a serious face, "I won't do it anymore, don't worry, uncle."

Since Princess Shuhui was looking for someone, Jiang Ling asked the Ninth Prince to send her back first, and made an appointment with An An for the next meeting.

It stands to reason that there would be no danger in the palace, but Han Wang is also in the palace, and the empress's importance to An An is obvious to all. What if Han Wang has a crooked mind and wants to use An An to do something?

Through the invitation letter provided by Jiang Ling, Xiao Shengyun sent a secret guard to disguise his identity and successfully infiltrated the auction house, bringing back a lot of useful information and an auction item.

"What is this?" Jiang Ling asked around the ornaments carved from jade and gold.

He didn't find anything wrong with the ornament, but being able to be brought back by the hidden guards showed that there was something unique about this ornament.

Xiao Shengyun covered his hand and said in a deep voice, "This is one of the tributes stolen from the palace six years ago."

It is also the fuse of his predicament.

At that time, his position as the crown prince was not stable. Before, other princes were eyeing him, and later, the late emperor wanted to take his position as the crown prince. He was not responsible for the tribute, but after the incident, the late emperor cured him of a mistake. Detect the crime, and use it to suppress his power again and again. "I didn't expect that the tribute that I couldn't find anywhere six years ago would appear in this place in a grand manner."

Sensing keenly that the man was in a bad mood, Jiang Ling held his hand instead, silently comforting him.

"I'm fine, I just want to know who was able to quietly take away the tribute from the palace six years ago, and put it up for auction so boldly."

After six years, it was far less easy than expected to check again, but knowing that it was related to the auction house, there was no breakthrough at all.

A secret order was sent to the capital silently by the secret guards. After receiving the secret order, Xie Siyao immediately took action. The emperor and empress toured the south. Everyone's eyes were focused on the south. timely.

This gave them a chance to be surprised.

At the same time, the person Xiao Shengyun sent to King Han's fief sent a message back.

They found King Han's private soldiers in the fiefdom of Han King, there were [-] people. These private soldiers were transferred out by the King Han in batches and hid in a place not far from the palace.

"King Han wants to force the palace?" Jiang Ling asked, holding her chin.

"A letter came from the capital, and the leader of the Ukishi Sect explained that the Ukishi Sect was besieged by the late emperor. It was a member of the royal family who rescued them and moved them secretly into the mountains to cultivate their voices. That royal family member was King Han." Xiao Shengyun road.

Jiang Ling: "So early on, did King Han collude with the Floating World Sect?"

Xiao Shengyun: "King Han's possession is deeper than we expected. Pass down the order to let Dingyuanhou's son come to see him."

"Yes."

The palace people retreated.

Not long after, Dingyuan Hou Shizi arrived, and Zhan Lezhang came with him.

Under Xiao Shengyun's signal, Eunuch Fan put the secret letter in front of the two of them.

Zhan Lezhang picked it up, looked at ten lines at a glance, and said, "King Han should not only have colluded with the Floating World Sect after it was suppressed, but the two should have colluded earlier."

Xiao Shengyun nodded at the table: "How do you say?"

Zhan Lezhang: "In those years when I was in the Floating World Sect, I suspected that my father's madness was related to the Floating World Sect. The fact is also true. The secret medicine made by the Floating World Sect can make people fall into madness after being stimulated without obvious Pulse condition, later I got in touch with my father’s old department and checked what happened back then, and my father’s symptoms were exactly the same as the reaction to the drug.”

Jiang Ling: "That is to say, the reason why the Fourth Prince went crazy at the beginning was because he was drugged?"

"Yes," Zhan Lezhang nodded, "It's not just my father. Jiang Yaohua, the son of Jiang Shangshu, has symptoms similar to my father's. The medicine he grows may also come from the Floating World Sect."

Jiang Yaohua, Jiang Ling hadn't heard about him for a long time, and when he heard it suddenly, he was in a daze for a moment before remembering that he used to bully the original owner by virtue of his status.

When I think of Jiang Yaohua, I think of Jiang Xu who drugged Jiang Yaohua through a woman, the protagonist Shou in the original book.

Jiang Xu was sent by Xiao Shengyun to be an official far away from the capital, and there has been no change. Now that the protagonist of the original book, Gong, is dead, Jiang Xu has not rubbed the spark of love with King Xuan as written in the original book.For Jiang Xu, the protagonist, Jiang Ling's influence still rests on the fact that this is a very strange person.

"What is Ling'er thinking?"

Jiang Ling regained her senses and said in a low voice, "I'm thinking about Jiang Xu."

Zhan Lezhang and Dingyuan Hou Shizi didn't know why, but Xiao Shengyun knew what Jiang Ling meant.

The medicine that caused Jiang Yaohua to suffer from madness was ultimately from Jiang Xu. Where did Jiang Xu get the medicine from?Is there any connection between him and the Floating World Sect?

There were too many mysteries that needed to be sorted out one by one. Jiang Ling put this matter aside first, and returned her attention to King Han.

"Han Wang hasn't changed much these days, but his private soldiers have left the fief one after another. Now that we are far away from the capital, it is a rare opportunity for Han Wang. He will definitely take the opportunity to do something."

Jiang Ling scratched her chin: "But there is one thing I can't quite understand. Now that the world has been settled, when His Majesty ascended the throne, there was such an auspicious celestial phenomenon. Even if King Han wants to do something, the people in the world will not buy it, right?" .”

The people don't care who is sitting on the dragon chair, as long as this person can make them live well, Xiao Shengyun is undoubtedly satisfied with this, and they recognize the emperor.

Just like before, the Ukishi Sect wanted to use the former emperor to shake the country's foundation, and the people didn't buy it at all.

"No matter what he wants to do, it will always be in vain. My father and mother's life, and the debts of many people who died because of this incident, it is time for him to pay back." Zhan Lezhang said in a cold tone.

"What the music said is, have the people you brought already entered the Han King's fiefdom?" Jiang Ling asked.

"That's right, although they can't confront King Han's private soldiers head-on, it's not difficult to do a little trick," Zhan Lezhang's mouth slightly curled up, "King Han is dreaming, but he doesn't know that his backyard is about to catch fire. Acting in my father's name, anyone with eyes can see how much Mr. Ziqi values ​​him, and the dissatisfaction accumulated in his own sons' hearts can just be used one by one."

Chasing power, for these children living in powerful families, is almost something that they have been obsessed with since childhood. Just throwing a small stone is enough to produce unexpected effects.

With the cooperation of Zhan Lezhang, Xiao Shengyun also completely gathered the forces left by the fourth prince, part of which he handed over to Zhan Lezhang, and he did not take back the part that was originally in Zhan Lezhang's hands.

For Jiang Ling's sake, he was willing to give the other party a little more trust.

For Zhan Lezhang, is it a gamble to cooperate with the emperor?

If it wasn't for Jiang Ling, he wouldn't have shown all his trump cards no matter what.

Regarding this point, both of them are well aware of it, and they work together harmoniously.

The four of them talked a little more about the arrangement of the plan. When Zhan Lezhang and Dingyuan Hou Shizi left, it was already late.

There is no cloud in the sky, a crescent moon hangs high in the sky, Zhan Lezhang stretches out his hand, as if he wants to grab it.

He originally thought that all he had left in his life was revenge, but he never thought that he would meet someone who could be with him for a lifetime, and also a friend who could treat him sincerely.

"Your Majesty is so lucky." Zhan Lezhang murmured.

The hand hanging in the sleeve was held, and the warmth came. Zhan Lezhang slowly raised the corner of his mouth and leaned on the man's shoulder: "I am also very lucky."

Jiang Zhiyuan's door was knocked in the middle of the night, Jiang Zhiyuan didn't want to answer, but the visitor ignored the guards in the mansion and broke into Jiang Zhiyuan's bedroom.

"I don't know why your Excellency visited late at night?" Jiang Zhiyuan clenched his self-defense dagger tightly, staring at the man in the black cloak.

"My master sincerely cooperates with the adults, why does the adults avoid seeing them?"

"Your master's 'sincerity' is to break into my mansion in the middle of the night and wound the guards in my mansion?"

"My lord may wish to listen to my master first, and then decide whether to cooperate."

Before Jiang Zhiyuan could speak, the black-robed man spoke again: "For the sake of power, my lord caused my younger brother's family to have only one child left. If this child knew, you caused the death of his parents. With his current status and that How much you love him, Mr. Jiang, Jiang Shangshu, do you think you still have a good life?"

Jiang Zhiyuan's expression suddenly changed.
