Chapter 589: Counting on You (5)
Xiao Mingyu looked at the person in front of him with a blank expression on his face.This person's appearance is not good, falling in the crowd is definitely the result of being lost in the crowd.Just such an unattractive person is the messenger of the eldest son Zhou Qi.

Xiao Mingyu looked him up and down, and said indifferently, "You say you are the son's messenger, but you have evidence."

The messenger lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to the eye, as expected, he was like an ordinary person, and seemed to be a little afraid of Xiao Mingyu.Xiao Mingyu laughed to himself, where did the prince Zhou Qi find this strange character.Sure enough, it is difficult for such an ordinary person to attract the attention of others.The messenger took out a jade wrench from his pocket, "Miss Xiao, please take a look."

Xiao Mingyu stared at the jade wrench carefully, she clearly remembered that the eldest son Zhou Qi did have a jade wrench on his hand.However, Xiao Mingyu couldn't be sure if this belonged to the eldest son Zhou Qi, nor could he be sure if everything in front of him was a conspiracy designed by others.So Xiao Mingyu didn't say anything, but waited for the messenger to continue to prove his identity.

The messenger lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Miss Xiao, we have been separated for two years. My Highness misses Miss Xiao very much. His Highness asked the young lady to bring a word to Miss Xiao, and asked Miss Xiao not to forget the appointment of Qingyun Temple. Now I also ask Miss Xiao to fulfill the promise made that day."

In an instant, Xiao Mingyu laughed. Apart from her knowing about the appointment of Qingyun Guan, the rest of the people are the eldest son Zhou Qi, and the old prince of Qin Palace.Even Han Ba ​​didn't know what she had talked about with her elder son Zhou Qi.Xiao Mingyu asked with concern, "Is this road dangerous? How is your highness?"

"Thank you Miss Xiao for your concern. You have to be careful on this journey, and you are not in any danger because of your ugly appearance. As for my highness, everything is fine now. It's just that the war is not going well, so His Royal Highness needs Miss Xiao for some things. Help with it." The messenger took out a wax pill from his arms and placed it in front of Xiao Mingyu's eyes, "Miss Xiao, this is a letter from my highness to Miss Xiao."

Xiao Mingyu didn't touch the wax pill, but asked with a smile, "I heard that Mei Ruhui betrayed the palace and is now in Jinzhou?"

"Reporting to Miss Xiao, that's exactly the case." The messenger said respectfully.

The corner of Xiao Mingyu's mouth curled up, revealing a smile, but there was a sarcasm in his eyes. "That Mei Ruhui, why didn't your highness deal with it? You even let someone escape, it's really incompetent."

The messenger was worried, but he didn't argue, but said in a matter-of-fact manner, "Cai Wu, a member of the Prince's family, intervened, not only got the Song family out of Zhongzhou, but also saved Mei Ruhui's life. By the way, this Prince's member, who once Just study at Zhixing Academy."

Xiao Mingyu frowned slightly, then smiled again in a blink of an eye, "The scourge has lasted for thousands of years, and people like Mei Ruhui will naturally not die easily." Xiao Mingyu stopped talking nonsense, crushed the wax pill, found the letter from it, and opened it to read.

The eldest son Zhou Qi really asked her to communicate with Elder Han Ge, and whenever there was any change in Zhongzhou, he would ask Elder Han Ge to speak for the palace and advocate peace talks.As for the conditions, as long as it is paid by the palace, everything is easy to talk about.

Xiao Mingyu laughed, "The life in Zhongzhou is not easy now. Prices are soaring, food is scarce, and trade routes are blocked. The imperial army is constantly marching out of Zhongzhou, but the army of the palace is fighting less and less." Xiao Mingyu smiled. Looking at the messenger, "The Wangfu has no chance of winning now. In the past, the Wangfu wanted to use force to force the court to compromise and maintain the status quo. Now, I am afraid that it will be nothing. But I think the prince must not agree to the request of me. The son made this decision privately, so he is not afraid of getting burned and let the prince abolish him."

The messenger bowed his head and said, "The little one only does what His Highness ordered, and His Highness has his own considerations. As for the other ones, the little one can't care, and won't care. Please also ask Miss Xiao to reply, whether to agree to His Highness's request. Such a small I might as well write to His Highness."

Xiao Mingyu said with a smile, "Since His Royal Highness kept his promise back then, I will naturally not break my promise today. You tell His Highness that I take his matters to heart, and I will talk to Elder Han Ge when necessary. And you Tell him to be more careful. Before the lord expresses his opinion, he will take a step ahead. If he is not careful, the result will be irreversible. I don't want the right lord to die when the matter is half done. "

The messenger frowned, "Thank you Miss Xiao for your concern. There are many capable people around His Highness, so they will naturally pay attention to their own safety."

"That's fine. If you have nothing else to do, you should leave the capital as soon as possible. This capital seems to be peaceful, but no one knows what's going on inside. The sooner you leave, the sooner you will be safe." Xiao Mingyu suggested to the other party.

The messenger cupped his hands, "Thank you Miss Xiao for reminding me, the little one will leave now."

"Be careful not to be targeted by others, and don't implicate me. If you are arrested by the government, I will deny it at all."

The messenger said solemnly, "Miss Xiao, don't worry, even if the young one is arrested, she will never touch Miss Xiao. Let me go."

After sending the messenger away, Xiao Mingyu read the letter from the eldest son Zhou Qi several times and memorized it by heart.Then burn it.This matter still needs to be carefully considered, and you must not act recklessly.As for reporting to Elder Han Ge, Xiao Mingyu planned to first have a clear understanding of the situation in Zhongzhou and the situation of the war.

Because of the spread of commercial routes, it is not difficult for Xiao Mingyu to understand the situation in Zhongzhou.But all that is known is public information.More private information is definitely not something that a mere businessman can know.So Xiao Mingyu took the risk and sent a letter to Ning Wang Zhougan.

Zhou Gan was full of ambition, although he failed to go directly to the battlefield, and although the Song family was taken first by Cai Wu, a disciple of the prince, this had little impact on Zhou Gan.Anyone with eyes can see the power of economic warfare.Without the economic war and the blockade of trade routes, this battle will definitely not be so easy, and the life of Prince Qin's Mansion will definitely not be as sad as it is now.Even if the crown prince is here, this credit cannot be taken away.

Zhou Qian was surprised when he received Xiao Mingyu's letter.Xiao Mingyu vaguely mentioned in the letter that he could use the prince Zhou Qi as a breakthrough.Zhou Qian suddenly understood that it must be the eldest son Zhou Qi who had found someone to contact Xiao Mingyu.What exactly you want to do is naturally self-evident.Zhou Qian laughed instantly, it seemed that it was necessary to speed up the plan and force the palace to disarm.Even if the palace cannot be forced to compromise, it still needs to cause chaos in Zhongzhou.

Xiao Mingyu not only reminded this sentence cryptically, but also directly reminded Zhou Qian that the eldest son Zhou Qi also held a food road in his hand.It was given to the eldest son Zhou Qi by the Xiao family to show their sincerity.If Zhou Gan wants to stir up troubles in Zhongzhou, he might as well use this food road to write an article to force the prince and his son Zhou Qi to separate.If done well, maybe this battle will end soon.Think about it, the father and son in the Wangfu were suspicious of each other, and in the end the father and son turned against each other. If Zhou Qi could be forced to defect from the Wangfu with others, then the destruction of the Wangfu would not be far away.
