Lord, the princess is beautiful and fierce

Chapter 872 Imperial Power Technique
Chapter 872 Imperial Power Technique
Princess Rong finally found her. It was the second son of the Nanping Palace who found her, but the eldest son stole the limelight. The eldest son provided a clue, thinking that it would not be easy to take the princess away from the palace in a short time, and she had to hide. With the guard on, it is even more impossible to avoid hunting.

So the eldest son felt that the princess must still be in the palace.

Everyone didn't believe it, after all, when the princess disappeared, they almost turned the whole palace upside down.

However, the eldest son of the Nanping Palace made a vow, and the emperor ordered another search. According to the eldest son's guesses, he found the terrified Princess Rong in the cold palace.

Princess Rong came back, and it wasn't Xue Qingchu who found it, but the eldest son. The nobles of White Wolf City felt that now they could see the joke about the illegitimate son of King Nanping.

The Nanping palace was full of joy, the princess was very happy, the eldest son was full of ambition, and the second son was gnashing his teeth. He was the one who inquired about the news, but the eldest son took credit for it, and his mother still helped his elder brother, which made him very dissatisfied.

"You are brothers, and your elder brother is the eldest son. This credit is insignificant to you, but it is useful to your elder brother. When your elder brother becomes noble in the future, he will naturally take care of you."

That's what the princess said.

The second son was even more dissatisfied. They were both children of the same mother. Just because he was born a few years earlier, could that idiot of his elder brother ride on him?
The second son secretly gritted his teeth.

...

Hearing the news that the princess had been found, Shi Luo was still relieved, and she didn't want to implicate an innocent person because of her.

"Xue Qingchu finally got an opportunity, but someone took it first." Shi Luo dragged his chin and said lazily.

Wei Congxi was dressed like a man from Mobei, a little less elegant and a little more wild.

"Not necessarily. If you want me to say that he did it on purpose."

Shi Luo was startled for a moment, but then became interested. She straightened up and looked at Wei Congxi with piercing eyes.

"Please enlighten me, my little prince."

Wei Congxi pushed the empty teacup forward, and made tea for him in a doggy manner.

Wei Congxi took a sip of tea before saying: "The King of Nanping holds a heavy army. Although he is the emperor's younger brother, every emperor has a problem."

"suspicion?"

Shi Luo asked.

Wei Congxi nodded: "This time Princess Rong was kidnapped without anyone noticing, and she has something to do with Bai Xiuyuan. Bai Xiuyuan was recommended by Xue Qingchu. In this way, the emperor even handed over the task to Xue Qingchu."

Shi Luo thought for a while and said, "Is the emperor testing?"

"That's right, I was trying to test Xue Qingchu. If Xue Qingchu really found the princess, then the emperor must have designed and kidnapped the princess with Bai Xiuyuan, and then found it to claim credit. For the emperor, this is a big taboo. Let me ask." , can make people disappear under the eyes of the emperor, can one day assassinate the emperor unconsciously?"

Wei Congxi chuckled lightly: "As long as Xue Qingchu and Bai Xiuyuan are not stupid, they will not do this, but the princess was taken away by Bai Xiuyuan after all, so she must be found, otherwise Xue Qingchu will not be able to do things well. Pay attention, what is better than sending back your deadly enemy?"

"In this way, he has no merits and no faults. After picking it clean, Bai Xiuyuan is also very innocent. As soon as the eldest son comes out, the emperor will suspect that they have taken the princess away and want to compete for the position of Nanping Prince's son. Quan Rong, the choice of the prince's heir must be decided by the emperor. The emperor became more suspicious when the eldest son showed his face this time, and the princess was still kidnapped in the palace and found in the palace. The emperor naturally thought that Nanping king The hand is already stretched long enough, in order to suppress the dignitaries like the Prince of Nanping, you need a knife, an illegitimate child who has no background and is hated by his aunt and elder brother is the most convenient knife."

Shi Luo was stunned.

No wonder Bai Xiuyuan dared to kidnap the princess. He had long thought of a way out and knew that Xue Qingchu would definitely help him.

"This is too..." Shi Luo was surprised: "Bai Xiuyuan is just a businessman, and the emperor's power is so powerful, I don't even believe him when he says he is not Xiao Jingcheng."

After finishing speaking, she began to worry again. Such a person, who has been playing tricks and schemes all her life, she and Wei Congxi combined are not as old as others in their hearts, can't they play?
She looked at Wei Congxi: "We can't go now, right?"

Wei Congxi nodded: "He is waiting for us to throw ourselves into the trap."

Shi Luo drank a bowl of milk tea and asked, "If you hide for a while, you won't be able to hide for a lifetime. If it takes longer, they will definitely find us."

Wei Congxi also had such worries, and he felt that it was unusual for Bai Xiuyuan to find the shaman of Quanrong, Wei Congxi had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"It's okay, everything is up to me."

When he said that, Shi Luo didn't want to increase his burden any more, he just asked about Dazhou and Nanyue.

Wei Congxi said: "Lanjing is so cold, fighting in winter is too much damage, so we have temporarily ceased fighting."

But Shi Luo thought of something and said, "So, only King Qi of South Vietnam is fighting?"

Jin Wang attacked from the southwest, and his situation was better than that of Qi Wang.

Wei Congxi said: "The meaning of Nanyue is to defeat them one by one. In fact, Xue Qingchu's kidnapping of you can be regarded as giving the prince and the others a chance. The excuse of Nanyue's war is justified. Wait until the Yuncang River is opened next year..."

Wei Congxi didn't go on, but Shi Luo understood that for Nanyue, the waterway was an advantage.

Shi Luo said helplessly: "It is always the common people who are hurt in war."

Wei Congxi said: "The rotten sores already exist. From the perspective of long-term benefits, only a complete excision is the most correct. If you want to remove the abscesses, you will inevitably suffer pain and bleed."

Wei Congxi breathed a sigh of relief: "Even if South Vietnam does not send troops, the Great Zhou will still be chaotic. In the past two years, many places in the Great Zhou were severely drought, and many people died, but have you heard any news in Lanjing?" ?”

Shi Luo shook his head, since the stele was dug out that year, there was no news.

Wei Congxi sneered: "In order to keep the Wushamao, the local officials secretly closed the city by reporting good news but not bad news, and more than half of the people in the city starved to death..."

Wei Congxi looked at the candlelight on the table, his eyes drifted a little far away: "Da Zhou has rotted from the root."

How desperate were the people in that city at that time?Those who live to the end are all cruel, but they will probably live in the shadows for the rest of their lives.

Wei Congxi has never seen it with his own eyes, but he heard from Su An that hell is nothing more than this.

Therefore, as soon as Wei Congxi came to power, he executed all the officials who closed the city to make an example.

Shi Luo was also moved when she heard it. She was staying in Lanjing, and she never heard the news. Perhaps Lanjing's aristocratic circle knew about it, but they were not the ones who starved to death, so they naturally didn't care.

Shi Luo was silent for a long time,
She has always been very repulsed by war. Even if Nanyue had ambitions, she still hoped that peace would be good, but she never thought that such a thing would happen in Dazhou. Back then, she had seen the tragic situation in the five cities of Huizhou, and seen Those memories of the snow disaster in the Northwest now surfaced.

Shi Luo let out a sigh of relief.

Wei Congxi said: "Don't worry, your second brother and the others will not harm the people after they attack the city."
