Concubine in power, prince, please respect yourself

Chapter 93 Complicated Relationships
Xuanyuan Chen felt like a dead duck now.

"Brother Chen, are you sure you can handle Miss Tianxuan by yourself now? You don't need our help?" Qin Ziling's tone was full of doubts. According to the relationship between the two of them she saw just now, if Xuanyuan Chen wants to hug the beauty back, I'm afraid. It will take a while.

Hearing what Qin Ziling said, Xuanyuanchen suddenly lay down on the table like a deflated ball, shaking the wine glass in his hand.

"Hey, let's not talk about it. I'm upset about it. People don't mean that to me at all. No matter how I post it, it's useless!"

Looking up, Xuanyuan Chen drank the wine in the glass in one go.

"Brother Qin, tell me, look at me as if you were a woman, look at me. What do you think I can't do? I have literary talent, and I'm not bad at appearance. Then why is Miss Tianxuan? Do you just look down on me? Could it be because I am the prince, Miss Tianxuan doesn't want to marry into the royal family!"

Suddenly, Xuanyuan Chen seemed to have found a reason for Yi Tianxuan to reject him.

Thinking about Yi Tianxuan's usual style, Qin Ziling felt that there might be this reason too. She could feel that Yi Tianxuan was a woman with her own ideas.

Or maybe not, or is there something unspeakable?
"After my usual contact with her, I think it is also very possible. She is a proud woman. Although she has been reduced to performing arts now, she still has an idea of ​​​​not accepting fate in her bones. When the time comes, Brother Gu will get married , let me go and call Miss Tianxuan together, find a chance, and I will follow her words, then everything will be clear."

Holding her chin, Qin Ziling looked at Xuanyuanchen with some sympathy, for a person like Yi Tianxuan who had his own ideas, it was the most troublesome to deal with.

And people who suffer from lovesickness are the most pitiful.Although Qin Ziling wanted to help him now, among the familiar people, there was no one who could talk to Yi Tianxuan.So, now we have to find a suitable opportunity.

Back at the palace, Xuanyuan Yi hadn't come back yet, Qin Ziling wandered around the garden with Lu He, and couldn't help laughing at herself.

Her own family is still facing a mess, and she still has the leisure to take care of Xuanyuan Chen's affairs.

But that's good too, at least I'll feel better if I get busy like this.

"Tie Yi."

Qin Ziling yelled around, she knew there must be hidden guards around here, but she didn't know who it was.

"Side concubine! The captain hasn't returned from the palace yet. If you have something to do, you can also tell the servant."

It wasn't Tie Yi who came out, but another man, but the clothes on his body were the same as Tie Yi's.

"what's your name."

Qin Ziling didn't care if it was Tie Yi who came out, she just wanted people to see what Dexin looked like now.

"The slave is Tiesan. Recently, the slave is by the concubine's side."

Looking at the respectful man with his head bowed in front of him, Qin Ziling felt that it would be risky to let him enter the palace again: "Forget it, when Tie Yi comes back later, you ask him to come find Mrs. Ben."

"Yes, does the side concubine have anything else to do?" Tie San lowered his head, still expressionless.

"No, you go down."

Soon, Tie San's figure disappeared again.

Looking at the direction where Tie Yi disappeared, Qin Ziling suddenly remembered something, the token Bai Yi gave her was still in the pond!
"Luhe, do you still remember the thing Madam Ben asked you to throw into the pond that day?" Qin Ziling's eyes widened, she actually forgot such an important thing.

"Ma'am, the servant girl didn't throw it into the pond at that time. When the servant girl just entered the prince's yard, the prime minister came in with the officers and soldiers. The servant girl was in a hurry and threw the box into the stove. Fortunately, the prime minister didn't find out. , so the servant has been hiding the box in the stove.

Hearing what Lu He said, Qin Ziling finally breathed a sigh of relief, that token was a testimony of the friendship between Bai Yi and them.

Asking Luhe to find a box and lock the token in it, Qin Ziling put it in Xuanyuanyi's dark room, and finally felt relieved.

Xuanyuan Yi didn't come back until it was time for dinner, and Tie Yi also came back at the same time.

"Side concubine, are you looking for me?" Tie Yi said respectfully.

Qin Ziling took the clothes from Xuanyuan Yi's hand.

"Well, there is something..."

"Let's go to the study. It just so happens that the king also has something to say."

From the moment Xuanyuan Yi entered the door, Qin Ziling could tell that Xuanyuan Yi was in a bad mood. Although Xuanyuan Yi still had his usual cold expression, Qin Ziling could feel that he was trying to suppress his anger.

"Some time ago, this king asked Tie Yi to investigate the prime minister." When he said this, Xuanyuan Yi looked at Qin Ziling. Although he knew that Qin Ziling's soul had nothing to do with the prime minister, Qin Ziling's body now It is true that the blood of the prime minister is flowing, and there is also her younger brother Qin Zhuo, who has always longed for fatherly love.He doesn't know how to deal with the relationship between him and the prime minister now.

"My lord, even though this concubine's life was given by the prime minister, I will not be soft-hearted towards him. I have no opinion on how the prince should deal with it." Qin Ziling's voice was flat, without anger or grief.

"You still remember the incident when I led troops to rescue Nanhui Kingdom. The other one who accompanied me on the expedition was the prime minister. He also led a group of troops back then. Although we came from the Tianxi Dynasty at the same time, We set off for Nanhui Country, but our mission is different.

At that time, the king led the army to fight in the front, but the prime minister's army did not move out in the rear. After the war, the king was recalled to Kyoto by the emperor's decree. At that time, the prime minister led the army into Nanhui country's royal palace. "

Qin Ziling quietly listened to Xuanyuan Yi recalling the events of the year, and his mind was running fast. The events of the year were really strange. Why did Tianxi Dynasty send two armies at the same time, but only one army went to the battlefield? In terms of negotiations, why did the prime minister bring an army?

Seeing Qin Ziling's confusion, Xuanyuan Yi continued to explain in a deep voice.

"Do you know why Bai Yi sent troops to attack the Tianxi Dynasty last time? Moreover, the emperor agreed to let Nanhui country go with ease. Not only that, do you know why the emperor also agreed to supply bombs to Nanhui country?"

Xuanyuan Yi threw a series of questions at Qin Ziling, causing Qin Ziling's head to be bewildered.

"It's because the last time Bai Yi sent troops to attack the Tianxi Dynasty was actually a cover! His real purpose was to take advantage of this chaos to clean up forces that did not belong to Nanhui Nation. And the emperor was cleared by Bai Yi because of his power in Nanhui Nation , that's why he easily let Nanhui go, and because the emperor needs your bomb, that's why he agreed to your request so easily. Even though this request was very unfavorable to him in terms of the situation at that time of."

As Xuanyuan Yi said, Qin Ziling sorted it out slowly in his mind, the more he heard the back, the more strange Qin Ziling felt.

"My lord, are you saying that the army brought by the prime minister did not return to Tianxi Dynasty! Instead, they stayed in Nanhui Kingdom!"

Qin Ziling felt that this news was really shocking.One country sent troops to another country in the name of helping, but at the end of the war, it actually sent its own country's troops to station in that country.Isn't this a matter of dragging a beaten person to a place where others can't see, and then beat him hard?
Doing so would be too immoral.

Xuanyuan Yi knew that he had said so much, Qin Ziling should have understood what happened back then.

"I don't know the specific content of their agreement back then. Now I only found out that the group of troops stationed in Nanhui Country was completely wiped out by Bai Yi, and Bai Yi also got rid of the control of Tianxi Dynasty."

No wonder the last time Bai Yi dared to enter Tianxi Dynasty to steal things, it turned out that it was because Nanhui Kingdom was free, so he dared to ignore Xuanyuanfu and did that.

"The last time I asked you to check the prime minister, tell me, what did you find?"

Xuanyuan Yi said it to Tie Yi, when he entered the palace just now, he met Tie Yi, so he knew that things had progressed.

"This subordinate has been following the prime minister for the past few days, and this subordinate has discovered that the prime minister has cultivated a group of troops secretly, and that group of troops does not belong to the emperor."

It doesn't belong to the emperor, does the prime minister himself have the heart of rebellion!

"I have not found out exactly who is in charge of those troops, but if I guess correctly, the empress dowager asked the prime minister to train those troops."

Qin Ziling was really surprised when he heard that it was only trained by the queen mother. The queen mother is just a woman, let alone what she does to train these troops. Just raising these people costs a lot of money!

"Does the emperor know about this?"

If the emperor has not known about this matter for so many years, one can imagine how much power the empress dowager controls now.

"Based on my subordinates' observations over the past few days, the emperor doesn't know about it, but the empress and prince seem to know about it."

Hearing what Tie Yi said, Qin Ziling finally understood that the Empress Dowager relied on the strength of the Yuan family.

Turning around, Qin Ziling saw Xuanyuan Yi frowning.

"My lord, what's the matter?"

Xuanyuan Yi heard her voice, but did not answer Qin Ziling immediately.

Qin Ziling knew that Xuanyuan Yi was thinking about something, so he didn't bother him.

"Tie Yi, go to Nanhui Nation and find out what is the content of the treaty they forced Nanhui Nation to sign?"

"Yes, this subordinate immediately pack up his things and go."

After hearing what Tie Yi said just now, Xuanyuan Yi suddenly felt in his heart that the incident back then probably had something to do with the Empress Dowager.

Maybe, what happened back then was ordered by the Queen Mother!
