After wearing the book, the Buddhist imperial concubine has spoiled again

Chapter 287

All she knew was that the prince looked very angry, and that it was Huang Dechang who made him angry.

"Your Highness, I have followed you through life and death for many years. You should know that I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death." Huang Dechang persuaded earnestly, "I just want you to be safe."

"You should also know that Gu hates betrayal the most, but you, together with others, deceive Gu." Pei Xuanling frowned, and reprimanded, "Huang Dechang, you are so brave!"

"The servant did not betray His Highness, this time he did it only for your own good." Huang Dechang said with a bitter face, "The servant and Jiang Liangdi are all for your own good."

"Enough! I don't want to hear more from you." Pei Xuanling said with a sullen face, "Since you trust Jiang Liangdi so much, and you heard that she has been ill for the past few days and is still staying in Hangzhou, you should meet her here and escort Yanshuang together. When she returns to Beijing, she will make amends."

The crown prince always said one thing, Huang Dechang knew that the crown prince was afraid that he would continue to be in collusion with Jiang Liangdi, and wanted to abandon him.

Since His Highness gave him a chance to make amends, he could only bow his head and say "Yes".

Pei Xuanling: "If something happens to her, you won't have to work by Gu's side anymore."

"." At this moment, Huang Dechang's heart was both heavy and grateful.

His Highness hates betrayal the most. Although he is a kind betrayal, it is also a kind of betrayal.

In normal times, His Highness would have someone beat him up, or abandon him.

But His Highness only asked her to protect Jiang Liangdi when she returned to Beijing, which showed that His Highness still recognized and trusted him in his heart.

After all, that Jiang Liangdi is His Highness's favorite.

"Yes! The servant will do his best to escort Jiang Liangdi back to Beijing safely!" Huang Dechang kowtowed to the ground, speaking faithfully.

Pei Xuanling didn't say any more, and took Yu Bing and others to leave the inn first, leaving Huang Dechang alone in place.

Huang Dechang really couldn't figure it out, listening to His Highness's words, he clearly cared about Jiang Liangdi's safety.

That being the case, why did they not want to go back to Beijing with Jiang Liangdi, the two insisted on separating?
**
For the next few days, Jiang Shishi had been waiting for a letter from Huang Dechang, but suddenly there was no news from the other end.

She wrote several more letters in succession. The first few letters from the pigeons were delivered, but there was no reply.

Later, every letter she wrote in the past was brought back by the carrier pigeon.

But during this period, she saw that Yan Shuang had also sent a letter to the carrier pigeon.

Every time the letter sent by Yan Shuang was accepted and received a reply, she sensed that something was wrong.

It seems that the prince must have discovered her private correspondence with Huang Dechang.

At the end of September, when Jiang Shishi and others arrived at the Hangzhou pier by boat, they unexpectedly met Huang Dechang.

When Jiang Shishi and Yan Shuang got off the boat, there was a group of people walking towards them on the pier.

Jiang Shishi immediately recognized the leader Huang Dechang: "Huang Dechang, why are you here? Aren't you always by the third master's side? Also, why didn't you reply to any of the creeds I passed on?"

As soon as she saw Huang Dechang, Jiang Shishi asked a lot of questions.

"." Huang Dechang stepped forward and lowered his voice, "Hey, don't mention it, the third master found out about our private correspondence, so he didn't allow me to continue to follow around, and asked me to escort you back to Beijing directly."

"Then how did you know we would pass by here?" Jiang Shishi asked.

Huang Dechang: "I have been communicating with Yan Shuang, and she said that I will meet you here."

After learning the lesson last time, he didn't dare to correspond with Jiang Liangdi casually again.

"." Jiang Shishi turned her head and glanced at Yan Shuang beside her.

Then, she pulled Huang Dechang aside and asked in a low voice: "Then did you tell the prince that he will be in danger in Changzhou?"

Huang Dechang: "The creed you wrote to me was caught by His Highness, and the content of the letter was naturally seen by His Highness. He also read all the letters you sent before."

Jiang Shishi: "So, he knows that Changzhou is dangerous?"

"Of course I know." Huang Dechang nodded, and said rather worriedly: "It's just that His Highness knew that Changzhou was dangerous, so he took Yu Bing and others to take a boat to Changzhou."

Jiang Shishi: "." What? !There is also this kind of operation that knows that there are tigers in the mountain, but prefers to travel on the mountain?
Should she say Prince Tiger, or Tiger?

According to the book, after the king of Shu failed to hunt down the prince last time, he has been waiting for the prince to return.

Although the prince knew that the land of Shu was in danger, he would definitely bypass the land of Shu.

But Changzhou is close to Shu, and King Mu bought the prefect of Changzhou.

The prefect of Changzhou not only had people search the whereabouts of the prince throughout the process, but also let the king of Shu and the tens of thousands of guards in Shu let him go. If King Mu and his party unite, the prince will surely die on the way back to Beijing!
If the crown prince insists on going to Changzhou, it may be a disaster!
Anyway, she has done what she should do. If the prince insists on going his own way, she is now separated from the prince and unable to contact the prince, so she is powerless.

Next, without the crown prince by her side, Jiang Shishi didn't need to spoil her, and the journey back to Beijing was much more comfortable.

**
At the beginning of October, Prince Huai's Mansion.

On this day, King Mu personally visited King Huai.

"I don't know why the eldest brother came to the door in person, so why?" King Huai sat leisurely on the grand master's chair, looking like he was fooling around.

King Mu lowered his head and took a sip of his tea before he said calmly, "Father is seriously ill, and the crown prince is already on his way back to Beijing. I am here this time mainly to discuss with you about preventing the crown prince from returning to Beijing."

"Brother has always done things properly, so you don't need to discuss with me about such things." Huai Wang said in a dissatisfied tone: "Besides, the old ten has been suspicious of me before, even before he left Beijing, he still questioned me for leaking information to the prince. .”

"I said at the time that I don't want to participate in anything you do in the future, so that if the news leaks, you will think it's my problem!"

Mu Wang: "The tenth younger brother has such a temperament. It's not like you don't know that you can't really ignore everything just because you are angry with him?"

King Huai: "I know what kind of temperament he is, but you haven't helped me much, big brother. Does this mean that you also doubt me to some extent?"

"They are all brothers from my own family, and the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. How could I doubt you?" Mu Wang explained in a gentle voice, "It's just that the tenth brother has been stripped of his imperial status and exiled to the border for us. I feel ashamed in my heart. Naturally, you will be slightly biased towards him, and you want to make up for him, so do you want to compare with him on this point?"

"." Speaking of this, even though King Huai and the tenth prince had a disagreement in personality, they still felt guilty towards the tenth prince, and they were embarrassing.

Seeing that King Huai's expression softened, King Mu said: "As for the matter of us framing the prince and why the prince always avoids disaster in advance, I have already sent someone to investigate. This matter really has nothing to do with you."

King Huai: "Since it has been found out that I have nothing to do with it, who is tipping off the prince?"

"It's strange to say that our people have searched everything they can, but they haven't found out who is leaking the news to the prince." Mu Wang said in a clear voice, "But don't worry, I have already written a letter to the old ten. I told him and explained the situation to him, and he won't doubt you in the future."

"Fourth and tenth are already like that for us. I heard that he was not acclimatized at the border, and he fell seriously ill when he first arrived. Let's be more considerate of him and stop fussing with him, shall we?"

"Is he sick? Is he seriously ill?" Huai Wang looked worried.

"I've been ill for a long time, and I just came to take care of him a while ago." King Mu persuaded, "Now that the tenth old man is not in the capital, you are the only one who can gain my king's trust and discuss matters with me."

"Now is the most critical moment. Let's not be arrogant. We must unite and strive to bring Lao Shi back to the capital as soon as possible, so that he won't have to suffer at the border."

"Understood, big brother." King Huai will now be innocent, and after listening to King Mu's heartfelt words, his heart is finally smoothed out, "Just tell me where the prince is now, and what do you need me to do?"

King Mu: "Now the crown prince has arrived in Zhenjiang, I..."

"What? The prince has arrived in Zhenjiang now?" Before King Mu could finish speaking, King Huai interrupted excitedly, "Then the king of Chu and the king of Shu are both free? When the prince went to inspect the water conservancy in their domain, the two It’s just that none of them can win the crown prince.”

"Now that the prince is returning to Beijing, they won't set up an ambush in advance to take the prince's life?"

"Don't mention the king of Chu. When the prince went to inspect the water conservancy in Chu, he abandoned us and joined the princeling party." King Mu counted the king of Chu in detail, "Not only that, but this time the prince passed through Changzhou when he returned to Beijing. , I asked the king of Shu and the prefect of Changzhou to search the prince throughout."

"Originally, the king of Shu had brought thirty thousand guards to hunt down and kill the prince. Who would have thought that the king of Chu would come along with tens of thousands of guards to protect the prince."

"The King of Chu and the King of Shu are both vassal kings. Since the King of Chu is meddling in other things, why not fight him to the death!" King Huai gritted his teeth angrily.

King Mu reminded: "Don't forget, because King Chu's domain is close to Beimo, people from Beimo often make trouble in Chu, so he has [-] more troops than King Shu. The king of Shu may not be his opponent in battle."

King Huai frowned impatiently, "Then what's going on now, what should we do?"

King Mu: "Before, the King of Shu left the land of Shu on the grounds that the Beimo people were causing chaos in Dongliang. In addition, the local government was bought by me, and I let the King of Shu go, and helped the King of Shu conceal his whereabouts. In the end, the King of Chu, in order to protect the crown prince, Learn from others."

"A few days ago, when my father was awake, I told my father about the king of Chu's leaving the domain without permission. My father immediately ordered the king of Chu to return to Chu. Now without my father's permission, Chu For the time being, the king dare not act rashly."

King Huai: "Since the King of Chu can no longer protect the Crown Prince, it will be easy for the King of Shu to take down the Crown Prince?"

"." King Mu shook his head, "Not only did I give eye drops to the king of Chu in front of my father, but the princelings also gave eye drops to the king of Shu. My father also ordered the king of Shu to return to the vassal immediately, and warned officials all over Let the vassal king let it go, or you will bear the consequences!"

"The king of Shu is useless now, we have to find a way to deal with the prince in Yangzhou, otherwise once the prince leaves Yangzhou, he will directly cross the Yellow River to Beijing by boat."

"I have already said hello to Yangzhou. Just in case, if the crown prince escapes for him in Yangzhou, when he takes the waterway, we'd better take precautions on the waterway, and the waterway from Yangzhou to the capital and the The navy has always been managed by the father of side concubine Liu in your mansion, it's up to you."

"Brother, don't worry, I will arrange this matter in a while!" King Huai said with certainty: "If something happens to the crown prince on the waterway, anyway, the weather is turning cold now, and there are often heavy rains in the area of ​​the Yellow River. It’s not uncommon for a boat to be swept to the bottom of the river by a strong wind and waves.”

Compared to the confident King Huai, King Mu is worried.

Seeing that King Mu was preoccupied, King Huai said, "Brother, we have a comprehensive plan and everything is intertwined. This time, the prince will definitely not be able to return to Beijing alive. What else do you have to worry about?"

King Mu: "Our side is fine. My main concern is the crown prince. Whenever there is a plan on our side, he will avoid disaster in advance like a prophet, just like this time the king of Shu brought tens of thousands of guards. Ambushing the crown prince in Shu, who would have thought that the crown prince would go a long way around."

"A few days ago, I bought the prefects of Jiaxing and Xuzhou, and asked the king of Shu to join forces with the local prefects to hunt down and kill the prince. Regarding these two places, the prince also took a detour, as if he had expected this in advance. Then there is Changzhou, although the prince There is no detour, and there is also collusion with the king of Chu in advance to come to support."

King Huai frowned, "Since it wasn't our people who leaked the matter, the key point is that we haven't found out who leaked the news to the crown prince. Do you think there is an expert who gave advice to the crown prince?"

"I heard that the prince went to Jiang's house before he left Beijing. He said that he asked Jiang Chongjin to count the auspicious day for his departure. Who knows if he asked Jiang Chongjin to count good or bad luck for him? Moreover, Jiang Chongjin seems to have some skills. Being able to pray for rain, and still gaining the trust of my father, maybe I really have the ability to predict the future."

Hearing this, King Mu's eyes turned slightly.

"If it's really the matter that Jiang Chongjin ruined us, why not directly" When speaking, King Huai compared his hand to a knife and put it on his neck, meaning to kill Jiang Chongjin directly.

Mu Wang: "Now that Jiang Chongjin is the celebrity in front of the father, let's not touch him for the time being."

"That's right, when the crown prince is dead and the emperor is about to die, it will not be easy for us to want Jiang Chongjin's life." The corner of King Huai's mouth curled up slightly, "By the way, the crown prince is not going out of the palace this time to bring Jiang Liangdi with him. Is it?"

King Mu nodded: "This time the prince is inspecting various water conservancy projects, Jiang Liangdi is indeed by his side, but I heard that the two of them separated a few days ago, and now it is Yu Liangdi who is by the prince's side."

"At such a critical moment, the prince deliberately separated from Jiang Liangdi, which means that the prince is afraid of implicating her." King Huai used his years of relationship experience as an analysis, "Maybe we can still start with Jiang Liangdi."

After speaking, King Huai and King Mu looked at each other knowingly.

As the crown prince, the crown prince obviously fell in love with that fat woman Jiang Liangdi.

Although King Huai didn't understand the prince's aesthetics, it was a good thing for Prince Mu and his party that the prince had an emotional weakness.

As long as Jiang Liangdi was captured, it would be easy to capture the prince.

Maybe, the prince will throw himself into a trap for love, ha ha
**
After Jiang Shishi and others rested at the Hangzhou Inn for a day, they continued on their way.

Knowing that the prefect of Changzhou was in collusion with the King Mu's party, they deliberately avoided Changzhou by taking a boat to Zhenjiang.

As soon as the prince and others left Zhenjiang, Jiang Shishi and his party arrived in Zhenjiang.

In the early morning of this day, Jiang Shishi was sitting in the carriage, and Yan Shuang was driving ahead.

Huang Dechang led dozens of guards on horseback to protect Jiang Shishi's safety.

At this moment, Jiang Shishi was sitting in the carriage reading a book.

Suddenly, the sound of a large number of people surging forward was heard.

Not long after, the carriage that Jiang Shishi was riding in stopped.

Seeing the carriage stopped, Jiang Shishi opened the curtain to take a look, and saw a group of burly men riding tall horses on the opposite side, all of them were burly and fierce.

At first glance, it was a group of unkind practitioners.

The leading man took out a portrait from his sleeve pocket. He looked at the portrait first, then looked up at Jiang Shishi, and then said sullenly: "It's her, brothers, take her down! Remember, the superiors must Live!"
