The eldest princess is a captive and the abstinent official is seductive

Chapter 167, Part Five

Wen Jin looked at Lu Ming's back as he left, thinking about the conversation between Yan Qing and Lu Ming just now, and frowned slightly: "The sister of King Xuanwu is actually the sweetheart of the Regent?"

"Is there anything strange?"

Wen Jin shook his head, turned around and sat down beside Yan Qing, "It just feels too coincidental, as if even the emperor is on the side of Your Highness."

Ye Ziying was poisoned, and Yan Qing gave the Regent the antidote. Even though the Regent had promised to give way to Yan Qing in the future, and the two sides agreed on the conditions, as long as the Regent loved Ye Ziying more than power in his heart, he would always be grateful to Yan Qing.

In addition, the Regent should have some thoughts of compensation in his eyes, both openly and secretly, for the grievances Yan Qing had suffered. And Yan Chen was a pile of mud that could not be helped, and it was hard to think about who the Regent would help in the future.

Yan Qing said lazily, "Let the prophecies of the various people ferment for a while, and try to temper Yan Chen's patience. Let him know next month that the four vassal kings believe in the auspicious sign sent by the heavens, gather in Suzaku City, and have declared their complete submission to me. I will seize his throne without bloodshed."

Wen Jin nodded slowly, "Yes."

Yan Qing said nothing more.

"Return to the imperial city before the fifth day of the month." Yan Qing held the teacup, his eyebrows and eyes were cold, "Before that, prepare everything properly."

Wen Jin said, "The son of the Chu Kingdom can also be useful."

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you want to kill him before?"

"I just thought about it, and I won't really kill him." Wen Jin said calmly, "I will never kill someone that your highness doesn't allow me to kill."

Yan Qing did not comment.

Wen Jin's mood has changed dramatically recently, and so has his state of mind. He is the one who is said to have a happy ending after a bad time.

When people are extremely desperate or in a gloomy mood, they are likely to have some extreme thoughts or actions. Once their mood improves and they relax, every day is sunny and bright. Who would think of killing people for no reason when they are in a state of fulfillment and joy?

As night fell, it was time to go to bed again.

Wen Jin watched several maids escort Yan Qing to take a bath, and sat by the window waiting alone, and suddenly thought of the time in the Princess's Mansion in the imperial capital.

In fact, the barrier between men and women between them has never been very strict. From ten years ago to now, no one has really paid attention to this issue.

But during this period of time, there was some... well, there was no excessive attention. After all, living in the same room without any status did not seem to be a strict barrier between men and women.

Wen Jin looked out the window at night, thinking about the current situation, knowing clearly in his heart that no matter the throne or love, it is never something that cannot be obtained. As long as there is an idea and the courage to take that step, what you want will be at your fingertips.

Yan Chen is too young, stupid and ignorant, and is not the material to be an emperor at all.

He is not even qualified to be your opponent.

It is the fifth day of the fifth month.

This is your highness's blatant provocation and declaration to Yan Chen, announcing the final ownership of the fifth place.

Wen Jin gently leaned his head against the window, and the picture of Yan Qing's master in Dayong Palace appeared in his mind, and a faint smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

However, soon, this faint smile slowly withdrew.

After the master's palace, it is time to fill the harem.

Based on the current situation - Empress Dowager Yan Chen was poisoned and was afraid to act rashly, various prophecies were fermenting, the regent gave up defending the imperial city, and the four princes surrendered to the eldest princess. It was easy to seize the throne.

Even if the ministers in the court were right, there was nothing to be afraid of.

But it was easy to get the throne, but it was difficult to stabilize it.

Wen Jin closed his eyes quietly. If His Highness really wanted to fill the harem...

Should he think about it, among the sons of civil and military families in the court, who is suitable for the harem?

It would be best to choose a few sons of court officials who can help His Highness stabilize the throne, but whose appearance is not very attractive. It doesn't matter if their qualifications are mediocre or their temperament is not pleasing, as long as their father has value.

Thinking of this, Wen Jin felt that there was nothing unacceptable about the three palaces and six courtyards.
