A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 664 He is alive and troublesome

The empress has been in the central palace for so many years, and she has never been able to come out, presumably it is because the emperor has grown jealous.But the candidate for the crown prince must be in the hands of the Xie family, so that it will be safe in the future.

The person on the other side said again: "Before the seventh prince, one prince broke his leg, and one prince stuttered, so he was useless. The other two princes were terrified and had been mediocre. At present, it seems that the seventh prince stands out. , the emperor asked Mr. Xu Ge to focus on training, so you are anxious now?"

Before Xie Hongbo could open his mouth, he said again: "But the emperor abolished two princes in a row, and learned a lot of wisdom. Don't you think he is not vigilant?"

Xie Hongbo said: "You mean, the Seventh Prince might be just a cover?"

The person on the opposite side drank tea and said: "I just want to remind Mr. Xie that it is not impossible. Mr. Xie wants to kill two birds with one stone, how do you know that the emperor and King Yin Wu are not killing two birds with one stone?
"If something happens to the Seventh Prince, the Emperor will definitely investigate the matter. I don't know if it will fall on the Xie family, but King Yin Wu alone, why do you think he took the Seventh Prince away? Apart from making the Emperor have to protect his family Besides, it might be opening the urn and waiting for someone to drill into it. Master Xie, do you want to drill?"

Xie Hongbo then asked: "Where are King Wu of Yin and the Seventh Prince going?"

The person on the opposite side looked at him through the bamboo curtain, with a secretive expression on his face, and said for a moment: "Langguo. The gold mine of Langguo is really coveted, no wonder everyone is coveting it."

Xie Hongbo had a calculation in his heart.

The person on the opposite side said again: "These days, there have been many voices against King Yin Wu in the court, and old and bad accounts have been turned over. Even if Mr. Xie presented all the evidence pointing to King Yin Wu before the emperor, it is not likely that the emperor will Look.

"King Yin Wu is now a sword in the emperor's hand. The emperor still expects to use him to cut off Lord Xie's left and right arms. How can he break this sword with his own hands?"

Of course Xie Hongbo understood the current situation, as long as the emperor did not move King Wu of Yin, he would have nothing to do for a while, so he asked, "Do you have a good plan?"

The person on the other side said: "The emperor strives to balance the power in the court, so he reuses King Yin Wu. The harder Master Xie and King Wu fight, the happier the Emperor feels. As everyone knows, the emperor is seriously suspicious, why don't Lord Xie do the opposite?"

Xie Hongbo was thoughtful.

The person opposite said again: "If the voice of impeachment in the court disappears, and the courtiers sing praises to King Yin Wu, and headed by Mr. Xie, they will support him from the position of King Yin Wu, what will the emperor think?"

Xie Hongbo was slightly startled, and said: "I didn't expect this, the emperor will definitely be suspicious of King Yin Wu, and maybe the emperor himself will not be able to sit still before we do anything."

The person on the opposite side nodded and said with a smile: "That's exactly the truth."

Xie Hongbo poured tea for him again, and said, "Hearing what you said, it's really enlightening."

It was night, before the pigeons released by the Xie family could fly out of the imperial city, they were shot down by an arrow.

The sharp arrow pierced through the carrier pigeon and landed in the back alley.

The man who pulled the bow picked up the carcass of the carrier pigeon and took it back to his errand.

After returning, he put the pigeon and the letter on the table, and said: "Master's prediction is true, Mr. Xie really couldn't wait to send the letter."

The Jinyi man sitting in front of the desk took out the letter paper from the pigeon letter box, opened it and looked at it. It was indeed Xie Hongbo's own handwriting. He said slowly: "He has always been more impatient than me. Let's do it, and spread the news to Lang Guo. Anyway, Lang Guo wants to catch a lot of people who died of King Yin Wu, so that he can safely stay out of the matter. If Lang Guo joins forces with the Jinlin people again, I'm afraid King Yin Wu will deal with it It's also choking."

The entourage asked: "Then...do you still want to send this letter?"

While taking out the pen, he spread out the paper, took the pen and copied a copy of the letter, and said, "I must send it. Wherever Mr. Xie wants to send it, I will help him send it there, and his wish has been fulfilled." .”

He sighed, and said: "It's really troublesome to kill King Wu of Yin." After a pause, he said, "But it's also troublesome for him to live."

The handwriting he copied was also similar to that of the original letter, but what he rolled up and stuffed into the letter box was the newly copied copy, and then handed it to his followers.

The entourage went out with the letter and went to a deep courtyard.

There is no one living in this yard, and all the homing pigeons that have been trained to go to various places are raised.As soon as the entourage whistled, a carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew to his arm.

After the entourage pinned the letter, they let the pigeon fly away.

In this room, after the attendants retreated, the man in brocade clothes turned around and opened a hidden compartment in the bookshelf, and took out a brocade box from it.

He opened the brocade box and put Xie Hongbo's autographed letter inside.

Inside the brocade box was a stack of thick letters written in black and white.

***
Since Yin Heng left Beijing, Meng Yan had indeed never left the gate of the palace.

I don't know if Jiao Jiao Zhuang Zhuang knows that their father is not there, no one can restrain them, so it is not easy to take care of them.

Once the quarrel broke out, Meng Yan couldn't scare them even by telling the story about King Yin Wu's cannibalism.

If Yin Heng was here before, how could these two dare to be so upsetting.

Seeing this, Meng Yan also sighed and said, "I know you miss your father, and I miss my husband-in-law very much too. Let's understand each other, okay? Come, eat this porridge." , I'll tell you another horror story."

Later, Meng Yan discovered that as long as Zhu Ye was taken for a walk in the garden, the two of them would stop fighting.

Zhuye is the black horse that was brought back from the training ground last time, and Meng Yan gave it such a name later.

It has an arrogant and stubborn temper. It stood in the garden with its head held high, kicking the horse's hooves from time to time, and snorting roughly.

When Meng Yan rode it for a walk, Jiaojiao Zhuangzhuang looked up at Meng Yan and Zhuye with his little head up, and waved his little paw to express his joy.

In due course, the housekeeper held a box with a booklet on it, and presented it to Meng Yan in the garden.

Meng Yan got off the horse, handed the reins to Chongyi, reached out to pick up the box and booklet, and heard the housekeeper say: "This is a while ago, according to the order of the princess, the warehouse was cleaned out, and the things in the warehouse were turned into silver. , it’s all here. The silver price of everything is also recorded in the booklet, please have a look at it.”

Meng Yan opened the lock and took a hasty glance, and saw that it was full of bank notes, then nodded and said, "Thank you Uncle Hu, I'll take a closer look later."

"It's what old slaves should do." Seeing that there was nothing else to do, the housekeeper withdrew after speaking.

After walking two steps, Meng Yan asked again: "Xu Chenfang has been elusive lately, I don't know what she's doing."

The butler turned around, smiled and replied: "Perhaps there are many things, the princess wants the old slave to ask?"
