Xia Houhuang dragged Princess Lianxiang to a remote place, looked around, and only dared to speak with confidence if she was sure that no one was following her.

"Lianxiang, how dare you wander around on the street? If Xiahouyuan's people find out, they will definitely take you back. The queen mother is dead, the prince and brother are locked in prison, and I have already lost power , if you were Xia Houyuan, would you allow someone who threatens his throne to exist?"

"I know, that's why I escaped from the palace." Faced with her own brother, Princess Lianxiang suppressed the resentment in her heart, showing her weak side, and cried aggrievedly, "Brother Seventh Emperor, we What should I do? How serious is the trouble between the queen mother and the prince and brother? I think you should know that the father will definitely not help us. I am really scared now, I am afraid..."

She was afraid of death, afraid that she would die before she could get rid of Qian Diewu.

"Don't count on our stupid father, he only has immortality in his heart, and nothing else. Hmph, don't look at Xia Houyuan's current prestige, if he can't satisfy his father's request, he won't be on the throne for long." Xia Houhuang said Very disdainful, in fact, only he himself knows, he is just comforting himself.

I thought the throne belonged to the prince and brother, or else it was another prince, and it was absolutely impossible to belong to Xia Houyuan, who knows...

It's useless to think about it now, why bother?

"Even if Xia Houyuan takes the throne soon, we're afraid we won't be able to survive the time when he loses the throne! Brother Seventh Emperor, what should we do next? I originally wanted to hang out in Mo Castle and rely on them to get through this It was a catastrophe, but she was kicked out by Qian Diewu, I just moved my hands on her, and I almost killed her, what a pity." Thinking of what happened just now, Princess Lianxiang was very annoyed , as long as she shot faster.

"Don't be an idiot, even if you add ten more of you, you won't be able to move a single hair of Qiandiewu." Xia Houhuang said disdainfully, paused, and then turned into emotion, "Hey... Ever since I was demoted to the common people, I have eaten too much. After many lessons, I realized how stupid I was in the past, when fighting Mo Castle, you can’t fight head-on, you have to outsmart.”

"Wise."

"That's right, outsmart, you can only outsmart first, or make yourself stronger, otherwise we will only suffer when we fight against Mo Castle."

Princess Lianxiang heard Xia Houhuang's words, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense. The reason why she failed to marry Jimo Wuming was because she fell into the trick of Qiandiewu. Otherwise, she would have been the second wife of Mo Castle long ago. So he nodded in agreement, "That's true, Qian Diewu is good at scheming, she accidentally fell into her trap, and I suspect that Jimo Wuxuan who is so devoted to her is also falling into her tricks."

Wasn't it a trick, with Jimo Wuxuan's domineering temperament, would he be submissive to a woman?

"That's their business. We don't have to worry about it. You just need to know that Jimo Wuxuan and Qiandiewu are our enemies."

"Of course I know they are our enemies, but with our current strength, how can we deal with them?" If Qian Diewu hadn't let her go just now, she might have been killed by Jimo Wuming, but she also I will not be grateful to Qiandiewu.

"First find a way to rescue the prince and brother, and talk about other things later."

"The crown prince is locked in the sky prison. Xia Houyuan must have sent a lot of people to guard him. How can we save him?" She never thought of saving the crown prince. .

It is a problem for them to protect themselves now, let alone save lives.

"There will always be a way. Let's leave here first, and wait until the limelight is over before acting. Let's go." Xia Houhuang checked the nearby people and things, and found nothing suspicious, so he dragged Princess Lianxiang to Go to more remote alleys.

However, he didn't know that there were two pairs of eyes staring at them in a hidden corner somewhere.

A man in a black robe also put on the hat on the robe to vaguely cover his face, making it difficult for people to see his face clearly.

Behind the robed man stood a young man also dressed in black.

Seeing Xia Houhuang and Princess Lianxiang walking away, the young man said, "My lord, do you want to take them back?"

"After saving Xia Houran, I will bring them back together. Today is three days, isn't it? Is the sky prison ready?" The black-robed man was extremely calm, exuding a mysterious aura, His face was half covered by the hat again, making it impossible to see what his expression was at this time.

"The sky prison has already been arranged, so Xia Houran agrees, we can rescue him from the prison at any time, I'm afraid he won't agree."

"He will agree."

"Why is the Lord sure?"

"A person full of hatred, would he be willing to stay in the sky prison for the rest of his life? You follow the plan, and it is best to bring Xia Houran out tonight. Xia Houyuan is going to entertain all the officials today, and the people from Mo Castle will go with them. I happen to be able to get something from Mo Castle." The black-robed man smiled slightly, turned around and left, and disappeared into the deserted alley after a while.

The young man didn't follow, and when the man in black robe walked away, he walked in the opposite direction, which was the direction to the palace.

Xia Houyuan entertained the officials in the palace. On the surface, he wanted to win people over, but in fact he wanted to determine who could continue to be employed and who had to be removed, so as to stabilize the chaotic situation.

The officials who came to the banquet were all concerned, fearing that if they were not careful, they would end up in the whole family, so they were all very nervous, always paying attention to their words and deeds, trying to speak as little as possible, so as not to cause trouble.

Xia Houyuan has already tried to get rid of those who are loyal to Xia Houran, and the rest are those who are not firm in their stance, and some are those who follow the wind. For these people, Xia Houyuan chooses to keep them temporarily, and wait for the situation. Stabilized before disposal.

At the banquet hall, it was extremely deserted, no one dared to take the initiative to speak, they just tasted the refreshments there, and some people even worried that the refreshments might be poisonous, so they didn't even dare to touch them, just sat there.

Xia Houyuan knew what the officials were thinking, and also knew that the scene was deserted, but he didn't care, so he waited patiently while sipping refreshments.

Xiao Zhou was waiting on the sidelines, feeling that it was getting late, but he was not happy to see the people from Mo Castle, so he whispered in Xia Houyuan's ear: "Your Majesty, the people from Mo Castle have not arrived yet, so they are not immune to it." I really don't take you seriously. Jimo Wuxuan is fine, but Qiandiewu..."

Before Xiao Zhou could finish speaking, Xia Houyuan had already reprimanded him, "Xiao Zhou, don't say such things in the future, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless. You don't understand some things, so shut up for me."

"Yes, the slave understands." After being reprimanded like this, Xiao Zhou didn't dare to say more, but he still felt sorry for his master in his heart.

The master likes Qian Die Wu so much, it's fine if Qian Die Wu doesn't appreciate it, but he doesn't respect the master, it's really hateful.

It's a pity that he didn't have the final say on this matter, otherwise he would definitely...

Just when Xiao Zhou was thinking of something harsh, the guard came in and reported respectfully: "My Majesty, Mo Chenggong and others have arrived and are waiting outside."

Knowing that Qiandiewu was coming, Xia Houyuan showed a rare smile on his face, and said excitedly: "Quick, invite them in."

Seeing Xia Houyuan's reaction, Xiao Zhou murmured in a low voice: "How can the emperor and others reason? It's too much."

Xia Houyuan's thoughts were all on Qiandiewu, so he didn't notice Xiao Zhou, let alone hear his muttering words, and looked ahead, waiting for the person he liked to appear.

He knew that it was impossible to get this woman in his life, and he didn't have many delusions about her, at most he just wanted to see her a few more times, and that was enough.

Qian Diewu and Jimo Wuxuan walked in side by side. In order to help Xia Houyuan stabilize the overall situation and establish the emperor's prestige, he knelt down and saluted him, "The women kowtow to the emperor, long live my emperor."

Jimo Wuxuan didn't kneel, he stood there dryly, seeing Qiandiewu kneeling down, he was very displeased, wanted to pull her up, but unexpectedly she pulled her down instead, "Wuxuan, hurry up and salute the emperor. "

"For..." Jimo Wuxuan never thought of kneeling at all, especially kneeling to his rival in love, his face was extremely ugly, and he wanted to refute.

But Qian Diewu didn't let him have a chance to refute, she kept pulling him down, and persuaded him in a low voice, "Just this one time, just one time."

For Jimo Wuxuan, he couldn't do it even once, so he still didn't kneel, but simply clasped his hands together, and bowed to Xia Houyuan, "Kowtow to the emperor."

Jimo Wuming, the Three Gentlemen and the others immediately stood together with Mo Wuxuan, clasped hands and saluted, without kneeling, "Kowtow to the emperor."

Lin Miaozhu was extremely contradictory, she didn't know whether she should kneel down with Qian Diewu, or stand and salute with Jimo Wuming, he hesitated for a moment, and for the sake of completeness, she bent her knees, but just bent her knees, and immediately Was pulled up.

Jimo Wuming refused to let Lin Miaozhu kneel down, pulled her and whispered in her ear: "No need."

"But……"

"If you say no, you don't have to. You listen to me."

"Oh." Do this, okay?

Whether it's good or bad, anyway, it's already like this, and she has to face the reality.

Qian Diewu shook her head helplessly, she had already expected the result to be like this, and because she had expected it, she didn't tell Jimo Wuxuan in advance, lest he object to her kneeling down.

This kneeling, she must kneel, only in this way, the conflict between Mo Castle and the royal family will not intensify too quickly, and only in this way, Xia Houyuan's throne can be secured more quickly.

"You don't need to be too polite. I called you here today, not to give you any power, but to get together with everyone as friends, so all courtesy is exempt." Xia Houyuan was not angry because Jimo Wuxuan and others did not kneel down, but also It was easy to find a step for myself, and when she saw Qian Diewu still kneeling, she hurriedly called her up, "Die... Madam, please get up, you are pregnant, so you don't need to be polite."

Seeing that Xia Houyuan cared about Qian Diewu, Jimo Wuxuan became a little jealous, and didn't want to fall behind Xia Houyuan, so he helped Qian Diewu up himself, "Die Wu, get up."

After helping him up, he looked at Xia Houyuan expressionlessly.
