Good luck today

"Now on the surface, it seems that the situation in the imperial city has been basically controlled by King Huai. I have also gained the trust of King Huai. It is not difficult to stab him in the back, but what if..."

"Not in case."

Su Shixia counted with him with her fingers crossed.

"The eldest prince, the crown prince, and the fourth prince are all dead now. The only ones left in the imperial city are their old troops who support them. King Huai is a cruel man. You don't need to deliberately stir up trouble, he will find an opportunity to attack on his own. , completely eliminate the thorn in the side of the Fifth Prince."

"What's left is to fight and seize power. I'm not good at this kind of thing. I can't help you even if I stay in the imperial city. Instead of staying in the imperial city and worrying about being affected by the war, it's better for me to take Zhan with me. Please leave here early so that you won’t be distracted by our mother and son.”

Feng Qinian's eyebrows were twisted into a tight knot.

He knew that Su Shixia's words made sense, and he also knew that Su Shixia's choice was correct, but he was filled with reluctance when he thought that his sister, who had finally found him, would be separated from him again.

"It won't be too safe behind the Imperial City, but I'm even more worried if you are not under my nose."

Feng Qinian murmured in a low voice, "Besides... Xia Xia, don't you care about me at all? I'm going to fight King Huai next! Aren't you worried that my brother and I will get hurt?"

"Worry."

Su Shixia nodded seriously, "So, didn't I find a helper for you in advance?"

Feng Qinian's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this, but when he guessed who Su Shixia was talking about, his face turned foul again.

"Did you call Qin Yi?"

"It's time for him to come without me calling him."

Su Shixia smiled and said: "You also said that you will fight King Huai next. Even if you have the support of your father's old subordinates, if you want to secure the throne and completely control the Xiqi Kingdom, you must purge those old men who swear allegiance to the death." There will inevitably be a bloody battle between the forces of the emperor and King Huai."

"If you want to win, you must borrow external forces. The Dongling Army led by Qin Yi is your strongest backing."

Seeing Feng Qinian's sullen face and curled lips with a look of disgust, Su Shixia shook her head and smiled: "Okay, this is the countermeasure we discussed in advance, why are you acting so petty now?"

"Even if you don't like Qin Yi anymore, you have to admit that he is more reliable than you in leading troops in war."

"Just praise him."

Feng Qinian hummed and glanced sideways at Su Shixia, "I heard that Qin Yi has been sending you letters very frequently recently. Did he fill you with some ecstasy soup again in his letters? You haven't been so biased towards him before, why now? Speak for him everywhere.”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm obviously talking about the matter."

Su Shixia glared at Feng Qinian angrily. If she hadn't been holding little Qin Zhan in her arms at this moment, she would have really wanted to hit him with the book.

Obviously they were talking about serious things, but Feng Qinian wanted to go astray. It was simply...

"Anyway, the matter is settled."

Su Shixia said: "I have already asked Forsythia to help me pack my things. If nothing else happens, Qin Yi will arrive in the next two days. When he arrives, I will leave with Zhan'er."

"The rest will be left to you and Qin Yi."

Su Shixia said: "When and how to fight King Huai, you can discuss these among yourselves. If the two of you join forces and still can't deal with the mess that the Xiqi royal family has become, then..."

"How can it not be settled!"

Feng Qinian couldn't withstand Su Shixia's provocation. Before she could finish speaking, she said loudly: "Even if Qin Yi doesn't come to help me, it will be easy for me to clean up the ruined royal family!" Su Shixia did not expose his lies, but just She looked at him with a smile and said, "Well, that's right. Seeing how confident you are, Third Brother, I can safely take Zhan'er out of the imperial city."

Su Shixia's words made Feng Qinian choked and speechless.

Although he was reluctant in the end, he had to accept the fact that Su Shixia was leaving with Xiao Qin Zhan.

"If I had known that it would be so troublesome to clean up the affairs of the Xiqi Kingdom's royal family, I might as well have replaced my eldest brother. Anyway, he will be the emperor in the future... I don't want to be tied down by this throne and have to be tied to the imperial city for the rest of my life."

"Speaking of which, Xia Xia, you haven't made it clear yet. Where are you going to take Zhan'er?"

Feng Qinian muttered a few words, then remembered the business, and hurriedly asked: "If the place you are going to is far away, then you might as well wait for two more days. The eldest brother sent me a letter before, saying that he was almost arriving in Xiqi country."

"How about you wait a few more days? When eldest brother arrives, let eldest brother and Qin Yi clean up the mess in Xiqi Kingdom. I will accompany you and Zhan'er to leave together."

The more Feng Qinian thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible. His eyes lit up and he looked at Su Shixia expectantly, "Anyway, I don't think you are in a hurry. There is no need to set the departure time as soon as possible..."

"Even if I can leave a few days later, you can't go with me."

Su Shixia's words extinguished Feng Qinian's hope.

"Third brother, please don't be willful. My father's old subordinates in Xiqi are all maintained by you. They only recognize you now. Even if the eldest brother really comes, it will take more than two days for those people to completely recognize him. It’s a matter of God.”

"In other words, you can only do it with Qin Yi to take over the Xiqi Kingdom. Even if you want to leave the throne to your eldest brother, it will be after you take over the Xiqi Kingdom. Now you want to It is absolutely impossible to make substitutions on the spot, so just give up on this idea."

Feng Qinian's face immediately fell.

Seeing him sitting at the stone table looking listless, Forsythia suppressed a smile and poured him a cup of tea, advising: "Third Young Master, you have a cup of tea to calm down. Think of the good things, Miss, she is actually It’s because I trust you that I can safely entrust you with such an important matter.”

"I think she doesn't trust me, she trusts Qin Yi."

When Feng Qinian picked up the cup and drank tea, he did not forget the thorny words in his words.

Su Shixia didn't bother to pay attention to his weird anger, and changed the topic back to the topic to answer his previous question.

"When we went to the Ji family's old house before, didn't we get a map from Ji Qingyuan...well, a map that Ye Li left for me?"

Su Shixia said: "I'm going to take a look at the place marked on the map to see what Ye Li is doing with this plan that was laid out 20 years in advance."

"He spent so much effort to deliberately lead you there. He must have bad intentions."

Feng Qinian frowned and said, "This is clearly a trap set by him! Why do you still have to get in?"

“Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle.”

Su Shixia said: "We will eventually face Ye Li in the future. If we understand what he is planning in advance, I will be more confident when we have a real duel in the future. This map is a trap he set for me. Isn't it fake?" , but even if it’s a trap, if he really wants to trap me, it’s not that easy.”

Su Shixia raised her eyebrows and looked at Feng Qinian, "Third brother, don't you believe in my ability?"

Before Feng Qinian could respond, Su Shixia smiled and raised her hand to touch Xiao Qin Zhan's head.

"Even if you don't believe me, you should believe Zhan'er, right? He has already predicted that the place we are going to is safe, so there will definitely be no problems on this trip, so you can rest assured."
