That night. The emperor ordered people to place Ti Zhen in a small sedan and send him out of the palace. He dressed up like a princess who was being married off and secretly sent him outside the palace.

The long night was silent, and occasionally I could hear it getting louder, and I could clearly understand my slightly faster heartbeat at this time.

One minute and one second, the conversation just now cannot be forgotten. The suspicion lingering in my heart seems to be parting from the clouds...

Yu Huan quickly took away her wine, "Actually, Rouran has no request for marriage!"

The inner struggle forced her to put down her concubine's restraint and hurriedly pressed her hand with her cold fingertips.

My heart was suddenly shocked. I didn't expect Yu Huan to be so excited. She took a moment and said, "I know."

"You know..." Yu Huan's expression was misty and dark, "You..."

Their eyes met and there was silence for a moment.

After a moment, Ti Zhen spoke, "Are you and I becoming sisters on the first day? Even if your fingers are wrapped in your sleeves, I can still detect whether the wine in a pot is poisonous or not. I have tricks in the palace. Why don't you know. It's just that you can't catch the tiger's cubs if you don't enter the tiger's den. Since I dare to come, I am naturally prepared to be plotted by the emperor."

Then he looked at her deeply and said, "You are also a smart man, and you should have realized that Xiangguo's attack on the Wei Dynasty is really unexpected. You have eyes and ears by your Majesty's side, and you should handle any inappropriate actions. know."

Yu Huan took a deep breath, and the frightened look in her eyes gradually dimmed, "Although Your Majesty doesn't believe in You, he doesn't believe in me either. And because the late emperor has told you, the priority for many things is to reuse You, so I can't pry even if I want to. "

Helplessly, he smiled coldly, "Now... I probably know how hard my sister worked to separate the Zheng family and the Huyan family in the past. It is better to be the only one than to be one of them. This is what my sister taught my younger sister. As long as the You family is still alive, Your Majesty, it’s impossible for him to completely trust me.”

"Besides..." She suppressed the sadness on her brows and lowered her head quietly.

The clear wine reflected her incomplete face, just like her incomplete life, which was full of neglect, injury, twists and turns, and was always unsatisfactory.

She is resentful and distressed, and hates everyone. But among her hatred, what cannot be ignored is that her sister, whom she complains about the most, is the only one who is willing to argue for her and speak for her.

Love and hate are mixed together, and I can't even make a choice. Maybe she was selfish, but there was definitely a little bit of it, and she didn't want to ignore her conscience and hurt her own sister just to please a man.

After a long time, she raised her head sadly and said, "If you don't get rid of You Cunxu, it will be a serious problem for you and me."

"Sister, you know that as early as when Xiang Kingdom sent troops to Beilu Pass, You Cunxu's two sons secretly went to Nuer Prefecture, Yanshan, Qintuo and other places. Although I don't know anything about your majesty's conspiracy with You Cunxu, but The cause and effect...As soon as I think about it, I know that it is not a good thing for Your Highness to go to Beilu Pass at this time."

"As for using the gimmick of marriage to send my sister out of the Wei Dynasty, it seems to be about one person from Xiangguo."

"But..." Yu Huan was silently stunned, "But I don't know what the terms of exchange are."

After listening, I felt a layer of coolness on my skin, as if the coolness was spreading from the bone marrow.

In an instant, two words suddenly popped into Ti Zhen's mind -

Xiao Li!

Like a lot of thorns piercing my heart, I couldn't help blurting out: "Have your Majesty discussed this matter with You Cunxu?"

Yu Huan shook her head laboriously, "Since Your Majesty asked me to deliver drugged wine to my sister, I guess the You family and his daughter didn't know the inside story. If they did, they wouldn't need me."

……

The night breeze opened the window bit by bit, and under the cool moonlight, there were small lush purple and white flowers blooming.

It was already three o'clock when Yu Huan returned to the palace from Ganquan Palace. The vermilion lacquered door of Zhaoyang Palace creaked shut, and her trembling hands became slightly calmer.

Seeing this, Xue Yan hurriedly said: "Master is tired, you guys should go down and have a rest." He stood beside her quietly again, with a gloomy face, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, "I know that there are some things that I shouldn't say, but I have been with my master since I was a child. Growing up, I really have to remind you - girl! With the princess in full swing, maybe You Cunxu can still resist. If you tell her the truth like this and let the princess go to attack You Cunxu, we will be weak in the future. .”

Yu Huan remained calm when she heard this, "A weak force means a weak force. If You Cunxu is allowed to grow bigger, then the good days of our Shi family will be over, and I will become a worthless piece of shit." , I’m afraid even if I want to live, I may not be able to.”

She dug her nails tightly into the palm of her hand, "I would rather win than give the benefits to outsiders."

"But..." Xue Yan hesitated, "What if His Majesty is suspicious? Princess, she can retire after her success, but what about you? If His Majesty blames you..."

"If he can't defeat my sister, that's because he's incompetent. How can he have the nerve to blame me? It's not like he knows how to fight and deceive!"

Yu Huan looked into the mirror and scolded fiercely: "If Liu Xi is not allowed to rise and fall, then how can I be of use? He accuses me of being a concubine. I have to tell him that I am the only one who can help him in the future. This concubine!"

Xue Yan nodded, and after a long time she heard her master ask again: "Has all the news been sent out?"

Xue Yan responded, "It has been sent to General Kong's mansion. It must be time to meet the princess at this time."

"But actually..." he hesitated for a while, "Actually, you don't have to worry. When we went to report the news, Kong Sheng was already ready to go. I think the princess knew it well, and even the little princess sent her away early."

Yu Huan touched her slightly and sat down clearly, "That's good... that's good..."

At that time, Heqin's carriage also left Chang'an City. It was dark and windy at night, and the carriage slowly stopped until it reached a wasteland on the outskirts.

In the night, a huge black wing drooped from the sky. Through the gaps in the curtains, you could see countless torches coming from far and near like carriages. Xu Xu only heard people say: "Everyone is here?"

One of the eunuchs who replied said, "Your Majesty, you are true to your word. It is really genuine and can even deceive you. Princess Qin is right here. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself."

Hearing this, Ti Zhen hurriedly fell asleep and closed his eyes. After the man visited, he listened to the eunuch's urging, "Don't forget to remind your Marquis to keep his word."

The man looked at him contemptuously and said, "It is said that the people of the Central Plains have many thoughts. Now it is increasingly difficult to guess the thoughts of the Emperor of Wei. It is obviously your old emperor who is willing to trade the five cities of Beijun in exchange for Liu Wenyu's life. Now the defense of the five cities is The map has been given, and Liu Wenyu has also gone to Beiluguan, but you insist on changing your mind and redeem the five cities."

"That's why we ask the capable Marquis Wu'an to work harder! After all, this code is the same. There is no truth in the world that a country and a beautiful woman have both. We also ask Marquis Wu An to keep his promise and return the five cities when the time comes. It will not be in vain for our Majesty's adult beauty. "

As he said this, his heart seemed to be pulled hard to his chest by a strong hand, and Ti Zhen also suddenly realized.

Therefore, Liu Yao summoned Yan Yuanzhao before his death to hand over the defense plans of the five northern cities to her.

No wonder...no wonder.

No wonder Beilu Pass has so many sand barriers set up that it is so easy for the enemy to enter. It turns out that the defense map of the border was in the hands of Xiang Guo early in the morning. Even Qi Ming, who was not a good military advisor, could easily enter. The territory of the Wei Dynasty.

That’s so!

Liu Yao... He actually sold the city and land for the sake of a son who couldn't support him. He really didn't become a king in vain.

But she also has a doubt now. In addition to Beiluguan, Nurzhou, Yanshan, and Qintuo, there are only four cities. According to the agreement, there is still one city left.

Then where is the fifth city...

As he was thinking this, he couldn't help but feel intense pain and fear in his heart and lungs.

If Wen Yu had reached the hinterland of the northern border at this time, once Jinyang City in the rear fell, he would probably be surrounded on all sides and isolated. In the past, this was not necessarily the case, but if Liu Yao intends to sell the city to do so, he will definitely be in danger and danger!

A trickle of cold sweat fell from his forehead. At some point, the convoy had changed hands and continued on its journey. After walking for another five or six miles, before it could calm down, the sound of soldiers warning could be heard outside the window.
