"Prince Ranchang and his entourage were unyielding and believed that the eldest princess was the most suitable candidate to go to Yunzhong. The civil and military ministers all agreed, including Prime Minister Gu."

Prince Chang had made the right calculation. It was related to the safety of the one hundred thousand Qi family troops in Lingnan. The eldest princess had no room for refusal and would not stay out of the matter. It was a major matter of diplomatic relations between the two countries and His Majesty could not be arbitrary.

Even if Jiang Fuguang didn't want to go to Yun China, these people would force her to go.

Ji Ruxuan felt furious in his heart, and blood appeared in his eyes.

"His Majesty has issued an order for Lieutenant Wu to lead [-] elite troops to escort the eldest princess on her mission to Yunnan China to protect her safety. Officials from the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and Honglu Temple have also been appointed to accompany her."

……

At the same time, the reaction of the old Xun forces, apart from shock, was even more unbelievable.

"Is the eldest princess crazy?" Even though she was as calm as a woman in plain clothes, she couldn't help but be so anxious that her voice changed, "She is actually going to the southwest."

The maid who delivered the news came quickly, wiping her sweat and gasping: "This matter was made possible by the efforts of Prince Chang and Prime Minister Gu."

Therefore, even His Majesty cannot be arbitrary.

The woman in plain clothes was so angry that she trembled: "If Qi Yanhuai doesn't lead troops to Lingnan, how will we implement our plan? The South Vietnamese are coming fiercely, and the Qi family's army is weak and difficult to resist. Now that the troops are divided into the southwest and the troops are insufficient, how can we stop the South Vietnamese invasion? "

Is she collaborating with South Vietnam to allow South Vietnam to dominate the south?

The maid was horrified. The master had been planning for so long, even to the point of collaborating with the enemy South Vietnam, but now all his plans were aborted.

When the Qi army had sufficient strength, it could still compete with South Vietnam. Now that it has divided its forces in the southwest, I'm afraid...

After the woman in plain clothes calmed down, she said, "My lord, you didn't lose your temper in the main hall."

"No," the maid knew what she meant by 'gaffe', and she hurriedly said, "My lord originally planned to support sending troops, but Prince Chang somehow managed to contact many clan ministers and officials in charge of peace in the court. , strongly opposed sending troops to the southwest, but my lord noticed something was wrong, so he had no choice but to make peace, and your majesty had no doubts."

The woman in Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief, the king of Changjun made such a move, which she did not expect.

She used the birthday banquet of Prince Chang to intensify the conflict between Prince Chang and the eldest princess, which was the most critical link in all the plans.

But she never expected that she would also become a cocoon and become a roadblock that hindered her next plan.

The woman in plain clothes felt ruthless: "It's useless to talk too much, we don't have time, so send a letter to Princess An and ask her to work harder."

Although Qi Yanhuai's stay in Beijing has a great impact on their plans, they still have a trump card in their hands. With this trump card, they have at least a [-]% chance of winning.

……

Ye Mingwan was sitting in front of the dressing table, her orchid fingers gently curling her eyebrows, her slender fingers curled up slightly, and the bright phoenix cardamom on her fingertips was enchanting and charming.

She drew her eyebrows in the mirror, and her delicate and gentle crescent eyebrows became beautiful and seductive after she repeatedly sketched them.

Xiao Tao walked up to her quietly, waited until she put down her eyebrows, and then said: "Prince Chang came here as soon as the court was over, and discussed matters with His Highness in the study, and dismissed all the servants nearby."

Ye Mingwan smiled half-heartedly: "How many times is this the first time Prince Chang has entered the mansion?"

After Jiang Jingzhang lost power, the court of Prince An fell into disgrace. The ministers of civil and military affairs who had previously supported Jiang Jingzhang no longer dared to blatantly support him. They were all waiting to see how the situation would develop. Only when the case of Marquis Chengan was settled, would the situation become clear.

The same is true of King Changjun.

However, since the birthday banquet of King Changjun, he has visited several times, and every time he has come quietly and unnoticed.It's really interesting.

Xiao Tao lowered her head: "It's the fifth time."

Ye Mingwan smiled and said: "It seems that this so-called brotherhood and the kindness of the king and his ministers cannot compare to the power in hand and the power in hand."

Xiao Tao whispered: "The struggle for power has always been life-and-death. Prince Chang is a supporter of His Royal Highness Prince An, so it is impossible for him to change his rule. In the past, there was still some kindness between the king and his ministers, deep brotherhood, and the bond between uncle and nephew. , but all is well.”

"However, since the birthday party of Prince Chang, His Majesty has not been as trusting as before in Prince Chang, and Prince Chang's prestige in the court is also not as good as before. And Prince Duan, a highly respected old clan member of the clan, is unlucky. If Prince Changjun wants to maintain his current position of power, he cannot sit still and wait for death."

"The fire is almost done," Ye Mingwan took a fold of documents from the secret compartment of the dressing table, "It's time to add another fire."

She stood up slowly: "Let's go to the study."

The doors and windows in the study were closed, and dim light filtered through the semi-transparent window screens, casting a gloomy darkness. Prince Chang and Jiang Jingzhang were playing chess.

Jiang Jingzhang took the lead and went first.

The king of Changjun held the black behind.

"The eldest princess will leave for the southwest soon." Prince Chang dropped the black piece on the chessboard. "This time, we must make sure she never returns."

The room was dark, and his majestic face was a bit colder.

Jiang Jingzhang took a white chess piece from the chess set and held it between his fingers. However, he was stunned for a moment by his words. What Ye Mingwan said to him before seemed to ring in his ears again.

——Conspirate to kill the imperial concubine and murder the emperor’s heir!

——Your Highness really thinks that there is still a chance for the Queen to make a comeback?The queen has lost her virtue. You, your legitimate son, have long existed in name only. Your Majesty did not depose the queen, not because Your Majesty cares about you, your legitimate son, but because the current political situation is in turmoil and it is not appropriate to depose the legitimate son. Jiang Jingzhang, you have been abandoned by His Majesty, hahaha...

As the picture in his mind turned again, he thought of the scene that day, when the queen mother was sent away in an extremely crude carriage.

His mother always told him to be patient.

But now, he can no longer endure it.

Jiang Fuguang deserves to die.

Prince Chang looked up at Jiang Jingzhang, who was in a trance, and said with a gloomy expression: "Your Highness, it must be broken. The eldest princess has not been in charge of the country for a long time, and her foundation is not deep. As soon as she dies, those who are attached to her will naturally fall apart. If they are no longer a threat to you, you can act like a polite corporal and take them into your own hands."

All the efforts made by the eldest princess are to make a wedding dress for His Royal Highness King An.

"The ministers who support the establishment of a heir will publicly stand up to support you if they recognize the situation. At that time, I will unite the clan and the ministers of the DPRK to ask your majesty to make you the heir apparent. Without the obstruction of a relative like the Marquis of Cheng'an, the neutral faction will not be able to stand in the way. I support you without any scruples, you are full of wings, Your Majesty is old, no one can stop you."

Since ancient times, the struggle for imperial power has always been simple and crude.

Either you die or I die.

"What Uncle Changjun Wang said is true. However," Jiang Jingzhang was jumping wildly, but tried to maintain his calmness, "The eldest princess's residence has countless secret guards. Last time I went to Hangzhou, your majesty sent a hundred feather forest guards to protect the eldest princess. There are so many masters around her. It is even harder to kill her than to reach the sky. How can you ensure that this plan is foolproof? If the assassination fails, all the kindness between the king and his ministers and the love between father and son will become lies."

King Changjun nodded secretly. With huge interests in front of him, His Highness Prince An could still think calmly. He was not wrong about the person.
