Hearing Chu Huan's question, Sun Desheng immediately got up and put his hand into his arms, but he caught sight of Pei Ji who was present out of the corner of his eye, and immediately hesitated.

"Don't worry, father-in-law. Mr. Pei is my confidant, so you don't have to hide anything from him." Chu Huan immediately understood Sun Desheng's thoughts.

Sun Desheng didn't hesitate anymore, and took out a ring finger from his bosom. The finger ring was made of jade, but there were some red marks on it, as if there was blood stuck to it.

But if you look closely, you can find that it is the color soaked in jade, this is a blood jade finger.

When Chu Huan saw the pull finger, his face changed color slightly, and he frowned. Sun Desheng had already asked softly, "Master Chu, do you recognize this thing?"

Of course Chu Huan knew about this.

This finger ring actually came from Xiliang. When Chu Huan and Qiluo got married in Xiliang, most of the civil and military officials in Xiliang sent congratulatory gifts to Chu Huan for the sake of Maha Zang and the Nashi clan.

The blood jade finger ring was one of the congratulatory gifts, and it was very precious. When Chu Huan left the capital, he gave it to the King of Qi. When the King of Qi was in trouble, he could use it as a token to seek help from Chu Huan.

Seeing the blood jade wrench in Sun Desheng's hand, Chu Huan immediately confirmed that something happened to Qi Wang Yingren.

"How is Your Highness now?" Chu Huan asked immediately.

Sun Desheng hurriedly said: "Master Chu, when the miscellaneous family left the capital, His Highness was still safe and sound, but the princelings suppressed the Qi Royal Party, and many officials of the Qi Royal Party have been sacked. The situation is very urgent." After a pause, he said softly: " Your Highness originally wanted the miscellaneous family to hand over a letter to you, but he was afraid that the letter would fall into the hands of others, so he asked the miscellaneous family to bring you a message."

"Father, please speak!"

Sun Desheng thought for a while, then lowered his voice and said: "Your Highness said that the situation in Beijing is critical, and the prince's purpose seems to be to put His Highness to death, and in order to make Xu Dashi inseparable, the Prince will send many state affairs to Xu. Under the pressure of the senior scholar, it is already very difficult for the senior scholar Xu to see His Highness. His Highness asked Mr. Chu, what should he do next? Should he fight the prince to the end, or keep silent, or...leave the capital ?”

"What does Your Highness mean?"

"My lord Chu, to tell you the truth, His Highness can be regarded as a man without a master." Sun Desheng sighed, "Officials from the Qi royal party have fallen, and the princelings are aggressive. If you accidentally get involved in a certain case, the princelings will definitely take the opportunity to harm His Highness... Mr. Chu, after the miscellaneous family set off from the capital, the whole journey has been non-stop. Today I finally met Mr. Chu, you must find a way Help Your Highness."

Chu Huan nodded slightly, asked Sun Desheng to sit down temporarily, looked at Pei Ji, and asked, "Brother, what do you think of this matter?"

"It is bound to be dangerous for King Qi to stay in the capital, but the emperor ordered him to assist the country. If he leaves without authorization, I am afraid that he will also bear a lot of responsibilities." Pei Ji said slowly: "Based on the current situation, Qi The royal party is definitely not the opponent of the princeling party. The more the king of Qi pays attention to the day in the capital, the more dangerous it will be. If you want to be safe, the sooner you leave the capital, the better. The reason that can be explained to the people of the world...the most important thing is, if King Qi wants to leave the capital, how will he leave?"

"You mean it's not easy for His Highness to leave the capital?"

"Of course it's not easy." Pei Ji said calmly: "If the crown prince's ultimate goal is really King Qi, he will do everything possible to bring King Qi into trouble. If he is not involved in this case, he will definitely be involved in the next case." Get involved, and the prince's eyes and ears will definitely keep a close eye on the king of Qi. Eunuch Sun also said just now that the princeling party gained power in Beijing, while the royal party of Qi suffered a complete defeat. This means that most of the yamen in Beijing They are all under the crown prince's hands, and the crown prince's eyes and ears will also spread all over the capital, under such circumstances, even if King Qi wants to leave the capital, how can it be easy?"

Sun Desheng's eyes turned red, and he said in a trembling voice, "Master Chu, Your Highness pins his last hope on you, and that's why he sent miscellaneous families from a long distance to ask for help. No matter what, you must find a way to help His Highness."

"Eunuch, don't worry, your mission has been completed, and the next step is my business." Chu Huan was relieved, and then called someone to arrange for Sun Desheng and the two attendants to find a place to live first, and even more relieved: "Since my father-in-law has arrived in the northwest, the situation in central Beijing means that I can't go back now. But don't worry, my father-in-law will take good care of me here and won't let my father-in-law be wronged. If you need anything, feel free to speak up. It's just a bitter cold place in the northwest. The climate is not as good as that of the capital, but there is nothing to do about this grievance."

Sun Desheng was able to settle down in the northwest, and Chu Huan promised to take good care of him, so he was naturally very grateful, and the servants of the mansion immediately took him down.

"Second brother, what do you want to do next?"

Chu Huan sighed, and said: "When I left the capital, I was worried that King Qi would encounter difficulties sooner or later, so I left the Blood Jade Finger to him. Unexpectedly, something happened so soon."

"The emperor's northern tour, the crown prince's supervision of the country, and leaving the king of Qi in the capital, this arrangement is totally unreasonable." Pei Ji frowned slightly, "I don't know what's hidden in it, but I'm sure of one thing. Since the crown prince has such an opportunity, it is expected that he will eradicate the Qi royal party, if he really wants to deal with Qi king, with the strength and means of Qi king, he will definitely not be the crown prince's opponent."

Chu Huan nodded and said: "The prince fought in the battlefield in the early years, and later participated in state affairs. He is both civil and military. Although his legs are disabled and he has not been involved in politics for many years, his foundation in the army is really not shallow."

Pei Ji smiled and said: "That's right. In fact, the emperor didn't depose the crown prince for a long time. Some people speculated that it might not be that the emperor didn't want to depose the prince, but that the emperor was more or less afraid of the influence of the military. Among the four generals, although Feng Hanxiao and Yu Buqu were in the The crown prince remains neutral on the issue, but Lei Guheng and Chi Liandian have inextricable relationships with the crown prince."

"I've also heard about this." Chu Huan said: "When the prince was young, he was handed over by the emperor to Chiliandian to train the prince. Most of the prince's martial arts and tactics were taught by Chiliandian. Later The crown prince fought with Lei Guheng again, and the relationship is not shallow...!"

"The emperor finally handed over the position of supervising the country to the crown prince, so he might not have taken these two into consideration." Pei Ji said, "The four major generals, Yu Buqu and Feng Hanxiao are all dead, and the remaining two are related to the crown prince." Implications, now Lei Guheng is fighting the invaders in the southeast, and Chi Liandian is in Liaodong. These two groups of troops are also the strongest two groups of troops in Qin State at present. If the crown prince inherits the Datong, these two people have no objection. And The state of Qin is full of wars, whether the state of Qin can stabilize the country, in the final analysis, it still depends on the strength of these two generals to hand over the position of supervisor to the crown prince, and if they want to stabilize the hearts of those two. "

Chu Huan looked solemn, "If this is the case, King Qi's situation will be even more dangerous."

"So if possible, we should find a way to rescue King Qi." Pei Ji smiled and said, "Of course, the matter of saving King Qi must be kept secret. Even if it succeeds, we must block the news and never let it out. .”

Chu Huan saw that there was a strange smile in Pei Ji's eyes, it was a little strange, and Pei Ji and King Qi had never met, let alone any relationship, so he was worried about King Qi, but seeing Pei Ji's attitude , it seems that he is also very interested in rescuing King Qi.

"Brother, do you... have any ideas?"

"Thinking?" Pei Ji stroked his beard and smiled, "Why did the second brother say that?"

"In the past, you have always avoided talking about the affairs of the court." Chu Huan sat down beside Pei Ji, "But this time you seem to be very interested in rescuing King Qi?"

Pei Ji gave an inscrutable smile, and said, "Second brother, you have a very close relationship with King Qi. You worry about King Qi's safety in your heart. You and I are sworn brothers, so naturally we have to share some worries."

Chu Huan knew that Pei Ji didn't mean it, but since he didn't say it clearly, there was a way, so he didn't want to ask too much, and asked softly, "Brother, if you want to save King Qi, what should you do?"

"Although the crown prince's eyes and ears are on King Qi, it is not impossible to rescue him from the capital." Pei Ji pondered for a while before softly saying: "But there are two things that are the key to this matter."

"Brother, please advise!"

"The first one is King Qi's attitude. King Qi is now the auxiliary state. Although he asked someone to bring you a message, from Sun Desheng's message, we can feel that King Qi is not convinced by the prince's aggressiveness. The first thing he thought of was to fight the prince to the end, which means that he is already full of hatred for the prince." Pei Ji said seriously: "If this is the case, things will not go so smoothly. If people go to the capital to rescue him, if they want to succeed, the first thing is that King Qi must cooperate. Only if he cooperates can we have the opportunity to take him away from the capital. becomes very difficult.”

Chu Huan frowned slightly, "Brother's words are very true. King Qi was dissatisfied with the crown prince, and he was hit repeatedly. His youthful heart, he was unwilling to admit defeat, and to him, if he left Beijing, it would be tantamount to escaping. I'm afraid it's hard to accept. In addition to what my elder brother said just now, he is a Fuguo, and he left the capital without the emperor's will, that is to resist the order, and if he doesn't have a reason to convince himself, he may not leave easily."

"In addition to King Qi's attitude, the other thing is, how will King Qi make arrangements after he leaves the capital?" Pei Ji stared at Chu Huan, "Should I let King Qi go to Hexi to meet the emperor, or bring King Qi secretly to the northwest? King Qi How do you plan in your heart? This point, the second brother should also think clearly."

Chu Huan nodded slightly, thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "If King Qi really wants to leave the capital, we will naturally try our best to help, and we must keep it strictly confidential... In any case, we will leave the capital now." Immediately send people to the capital to investigate the situation, and adapt to the situation, and if we need our help, we will help."
