"The imperial guard army has three battalions: the knights, the guards, and the vanguard, with a total of fifteen thousand people." Ji Weiyu sat in front of the couch, with chessboards placed on the tables in front of her. "The Ming King commanded five thousand knight battalions. These five thousand people are the guards." The other two battalions are controlled by the Queen Mother and the Emperor Father, so they can be regarded as internal divisions. "

Twisting a white stone between her fingers, Ji Weiyu frowned slightly: "The Xiaoqi Battalion is the strongest, far better than the other two camps. King Ming has an upright temperament. He doesn't talk much on weekdays, and he is not good at being pretty. He is the most low-key and taciturn among the princes. One only knows how to act and doesn’t care about anything else.”

Yan Qing said nothing and listened quietly.

"It stands to reason that the emperor father holds the military power of the Royal Forest Army. This is because King Ming obeys the emperor father. However, the emperor father has always dared not confront the queen mother. The reason is that Uncle Tang Guo holds the Gyeonggi Guard. Quan, this is why the Queen Mother is so confident.”

Ji Weiyu put down a chess piece, "The Gyeonggi Guard has a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, distributed in the eastern and western suburbs of the imperial city. They are nominally responsible for guarding the imperial city, but they pose an extreme threat to the imperial power."

Yan Qing pondered: "So, we should start with Tang Guojiu first."

To capture the thief, capture the king first.

If you want to control the military camps in the east and west suburbs, you must first control Uncle Tang Guo.

"My father sent people to search the Zhongyihou Mansion on the 6th. In fact, there is no obstacle. Prince Ming does things vigorously and the prince can't stop him." Ji Weiyu smiled lightly, "What is really worrying is that the search will definitely anger the queen mother. She sent out a decree Go to the city, Tang Guojiu will quickly control the imperial city, and the follow-up will be more troublesome. "

It's really troublesome.

Yan Qing's expression was calm: "It won't work if the news doesn't spread."

Ji Weiyu was quiet: "That's OK, but the Queen Mother has many eyes and ears. It's not easy to prevent the news from spreading."

Yan Qing closed her eyes in silence, slowly ate one of his pieces, and said calmly: "So you just let the emperor confiscate your home, but you didn't think about how to deal with the aftermath?"

"Isn't His Highness here?" Ji Weiyu raised her eyes and looked at Yan Qing, her tone sounding confident, "Your Highness will definitely have a way to solve this trouble."

Yan Qing's expression paused slightly and she looked at him silently: "What do you expect from me?"

"Um."

"I am alone and a weak woman. What can I think of for you?" Yan Qing sneered, "You think too highly of me."

Ji Weiyu smiled and said: "Your Highness, there is no need to be humble."

Yan Qing ignored him and focused on the game.

Ji Weiyu sighed melancholy.

"What happened again?"

Ji Weiyu frowned: "I divined last night, and rebels appeared in the southwest."

Southwest?

Yan Qing's eyebrows moved slightly: "To the southwest of Chu State?"

"From the perspective of the Chu State, it is in the southwest direction." Ji Weiyu said, "But the location where the rebels appeared is in the territory of Yong."

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows: "꺶Yong rebels?"

"It seems like a remnant of the previous dynasty or something..."

"Ji Weiyu." Yan Qing frowned and stared at him with a deep luster in his eyes, "Are you sure it was the result of divination?"

Ji Weiyu was stunned for a moment, then looked at her innocently: "It's true."

Yan Qing's expression softened: "I hate liars the most."

Ji Weiyu was startled and silently stared at the chess piece in his hand. After a moment, he quietly dropped the white piece and told the truth: "The spy I sent sent back the news."

"Specific circumstances."

"It's just that they are under the banner of remnants of the previous dynasty."

Under the guise of remnants of the previous dynasty?

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows with a strange expression, "Have you ever seen a rebel say that he is a remnant?"

"I've never seen it before." Ji Weiyu sighed, "So I think it's a conspiracy."

It's indeed a conspiracy.

Yan Qing threw the black pieces in his hand into the chess box, leaned on the backrest, and remained silent.

"Does Your Highness know who it is?" Ji Weiyu said in a sour tone, "It can't be that noble young master of Your Highness."

Yan Qing picked up the tea cup placed aside and took a sip of tea carelessly before raising his eyes to look at Ji Weiyu: "It seems that you have been paying attention to Yong for more than a day or two. Tell me, how true is the poisoning? How true is it? Fake?"

Ji Weiyu's expression was innocent: "I don't understand what Your Highness is saying——"

"I don't like hearing lies." Yan Qing said indifferently, "I just reminded you of this sentence, how many times do you need me to repeat it?"

Ji Weiyu pursed her lips slightly, frowning and saying nothing.

Yan Qing glanced at him: "Purpose."

"I just want Your Highness to come to the Chu Kingdom." Ji Weiyu's voice was small and a little uneasy, "There are too many spies in the Chu Kingdom. I think it would be impossible to leave the Chu Kingdom to find His Highness. Your Highness would come to me instead." It’s easier, so…”

So the plan was poisoned.

When he was in Suzaku City, he had been tested by Langya for three years. Although he could not be said to be immune to the poison, he would not die immediately after being poisoned.

Ji Weiyu glanced at Yan Qing secretly, unable to see the emotional fluctuations on her calm face, and said cautiously: "If Your Highness is angry, beat me to vent your anger."

Yan Qing drank tea in silence, her eyes slightly narrowed and she didn't say a word.

"I just want to see His Highness." Ji Weiyu explained, "I don't want His Highness to focus on a white-eyed wolf."

"White-eyed wolf?" Yan Qing turned to look at him, "Who are you talking about?"
