Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 2578 Everyone has their own ideas

Chapter 2574: Everyone has their own ideas

The midwife was nervous and her whole body was moving. When she tremblingly switched the civet cat and the prince, she kept saying:

“Empress, you are very kind to me, and I don’t want to harm you, but there is no way. Someone wants to plot against you. If I don’t do this, my whole family will be dead...”

While he was talking to himself, Liu Mu's eyelashes twitched slightly, which made the midwife jump so hard that she fell to her knees and screamed for mercy.

“Mother, please spare your life, this old slave deserves to die, and this old slave was also forced...”

The midwife begged for mercy for a long time, but found that there was no other movement. Then she realized that she had poisoned Liu Mu with incense, and it was impossible to wake up in a short time. Instead, she had a guilty conscience and overreacted.

The midwife picked up the infant child. She knew very well that this child had a bad fate. Even though she felt unbearable in her heart, she could only be cruel. She was just a little person who couldn't help herself.

The midwife had just walked out of the room holding the little prince's forefoot. Liu Mu, who was supposed to be unconscious after being hit by the incense, suddenly opened his eyes.

 Liu Mu looked towards the direction where the midwife was leaving, with murderous intent in his eyes, but in the end he chose to endure it.

She knew that her child was destined to have a bad fate, but she didn't expect that someone would take action so soon.

Even if she is the empress of Qin and the great master, she can only block the open spear, but not the hidden arrow.

 So, between a noble status and living a good life, Liu Mu would rather choose the latter for his children.

 “Xiao’e, I leave everything to you.”

After saying this, Liu Mu took the initiative to close his eyes.

Soon after, a large number of palace maids came in. When they saw that the queen had given birth to a civet cat, they all screamed in fright.

 “Raccoon dog, raccoon cat?”

 “Oh no, the queen gave birth to a monster…”

As for the midwife who took away the prince, she walked quickly towards the cold palace.

Since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, no concubine has been forced to live in the cold palace, so the huge cold palace is empty and the silence is a bit scary.

The midwife also had a guilty conscience. In such a dark and angry mood, she unconsciously slowed down her pace and looked around for fear of encountering a ghost.

　　咚…

"who?"

There was an unusual noise, which startled the midwife. She subconsciously turned her head, but she only saw a mouse and nothing else, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

But what she didn't know was that there was a man in black who was secretly watching her.

The moment she turned her head, the prince on the cart had been secretly replaced by another child by the man in black.

 The midwife had no idea about this and still took the child with her to deal with the mysterious man who threatened her.

After the man in black took away the prince, he glanced guiltily at the baby on the stroller, then hurriedly took the prince to the East Palace and walked to the empty crib next to a baby girl.

This baby girl was the little princess born to Ren Hongchang, and the baby on the empty bed was supposed to be the legitimate prince of Great Qin, but the man in black and the child in the hands of the midwife were exchanged.

The person in black was Chang'e. Liu Mu just asked her to secretly rescue the prince and send him out of the palace, but she had her own idea and planned to swap the prince born by Liu Mu and the prince born by Ren Hongchang. The person who will succeed in the future will still be Liu Mu's son.

As for why Chang'e knew about the civet cat's plan to replace the prince and carried out counter-calculations, we have to tell it half a month ago.

Half a month ago, Qin Rang suddenly came to Ying Wen and said with a nervous look on his face: "Brother, it's not good. There is news from the palace's informant. Judging from Liu Mu's pregnancy reaction, he may have to be the queen first to give birth to a child." ”

"What?"

Ying Wen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, suddenly showed a look of shock after hearing this.

 It was really difficult for him to understand. Although they were both great masters, why did Ren Hongchang not give birth to twelve children, while Liu Mu was about to give birth after eleven months?

 Is this a coincidence? Or God's will?

"Brother, what should we do? If Liu Mu gives birth to the prince first, then the child she gives birth to will be the eldest son of my winner."

“There’s no rush, let’s not worry about whether Liu Mu will give birth to a boy or not. Even if he does give birth to a boy, I, Ying Wen, will never recognize him as his eldest grandson.”

Ying Wen had a firm look on his face, and there was even a flash of murderous intent in his eyes as he said, "For the sake of the inheritance of the Ying family, it seems that I have to be a bad person for once."

“Brother, do you have any plans?” Qin Rang asked.

Ying Wen thought for a while and then said: "Fifth brother, please go find Jia Xu. He is in control of the Black Ice Platform, and he is the only one who can help us reach into the palace."

"yes, Sir."

Not long after, Qin Rang returned, but said angrily: "Brother, Jia Xu is now the Third Duke and holds a high position, and he no longer takes your brother-in-law seriously.

I have made the hint obvious enough, but he still pretends to be dumbfounded with me. He is looking around and obviously doesn't want to get involved, and he doesn't even give you the face of the emperor. "

Hearing Qin Rang's words, Qin Wen's face flashed with anger, and he snorted: "Forget it, this old fox who only knows how to protect himself, even without Jia Xu, I can still mobilize Heibingtai."

Hearing this, Qin Rang nodded in agreement. After all, Heibingtai was founded by his eldest brother.

“Brother, do you think Jia Xu will tell His Majesty?”

“Have you made it clear to Jia Xu directly?”

“No, how can I dare to get straight to the point of such a big matter?”

"That's okay. My brother-in-law is the best at protecting himself and the most afraid of trouble. He doesn't dare to take the initiative to get involved in this kind of royal internal affairs."

"That's good."

Qin Wen still knows Jia Xu very well. If it were other matters, Jia Xu would naturally not dare to intervene. He should give him face as the Supreme Emperor.

But this matter can be big or small. It doesn't matter if you think about it in a small way. But if it develops in a big way, if Jia Xu knows it but pretends not to know, he will definitely be angered by Ying Hao.

Compared to the Supreme Emperor Ying Wen, Jia Xu is still more afraid of offending Ying Hao. After all, Ying Hao is the actual controller of the Qin Empire.

 But he didn’t know the specific plan of the Supreme Emperor, but he just guessed that it should be related to the Queen of the West Palace. Even before the emperor had taken any action, Jia Xu used Gao Mi's words to sow discord between the emperor and his son. This crime was enough to kill him.

 It also aroused the alarm of the Supreme Emperor. If you target him in the future, it will also be a big trouble.

Jia Xu is in a dilemma now. He really doesn't want to get involved in the internal fighting within the royal family, but now he is involved in the situation. It is not good to intervene, and it is not good not to intervene.

After much deliberation, Jia Xu decided to save the country by going a long way. He would not step in and let others step in to solve the problem, so that he could abdicate the responsibility.

The person Jia Xu chose to push out was Chang'e. After all, Chang'e and the Queen of the West Palace were sisters, and they would never watch Liu Mu being assassinated.

"grown ups."

Chang'e saluted respectfully.

 “Chang’e…”

Jia Xu relied on your profound hints, but Chang'e became more and more confused as she listened.

“Sir, what are you talking about?”

 “Haha, go back and think about it yourself...”

 Half an hour later, Chang'e left Jia's house with a solemn look. In the following days, she kept paying attention to the movements in the Black Ice Platform, and she really found out the clues.

After seeing Chang'e's reaction, Jia Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now even if His Majesty knew about it, he couldn't say anything about himself.

What Jia Xu never expected was that he hinted that Chang'e's original intention was just to let the Queen of the West Palace protect herself, but both Liu Mu and Chang'e had their own thoughts.

Liu Mu wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to secretly send the child out of the palace and stay away from the world.

But Chang'e did not agree with Liu Mu, and instead came up with a bolder idea. She planned to exchange the identities of the two princes and change the pillars. The biggest obstacle to this was Ren Hongchang.

After all, if Ren Hongchang was awake, no one could steal her child.

Liu Mu fainted after giving birth and pretended to be pregnant on purpose, while Ren Hongchang gave birth to two children for the first time, so it was understandable that he fainted.

Chang'e was about to give medicine to Ren Hongchang, but she didn't expect that Ren Hongchang fainted from the pain, and this made it easier for her to act.

"Queen Ren, we have no enmity, but for my sister, I have to do this."

Chang'e was about to put down the child and leave without knowing it, but at this moment the door was suddenly pushed open, and a woman appeared outside the door, it was Ren Hongchang Zixia.

After seeing the man in black, Zixia was stunned at first and then turned pale with fright. She subconsciously thought that the man was here to harm the prince, so she did not dare to make any move and could only scold: "Who are you? I don't want to live anymore." How dare you break into the palace?"

Chang'e secretly thought that something was not right and she could not let the prince back, so she had no choice but to jump out of the window and escape with the prince in her arms.

Seeing this, Zixia quickly shouted for help and quickly chased after him.

 Jiang Juan, who was patrolling, heard the noise and quickly led people over.

“Miss Zixia, what’s wrong?” Jiang Juan asked.

After Zixia saw Jiang Juan, she felt as if she had seen a savior and said quickly: "General Jiang, it's bad, the little prince has been snatched away."

"What?"

Jiang Juan looked like you're kidding me. After all, this is the Qin Palace, a heavily guarded place in the world. Even if the top grandmaster comes, he will only die.

But Zixia's expression didn't seem to be fake, so a more serious question came. What level of master could he evade the layers of guards, as well as the light and dark sentries everywhere, break into the palace and kidnap the prince?

 The answer is obvious: insider.

This traitor knew that today's banquet would be held, and all the big shots in Luoyang City, including His Majesty the Emperor, would be out of business, and the palace would be much less alert, so he chose to take action today.

Jiang Juan realized the seriousness of the problem immediately and quickly ordered martial law to block the entire palace. At the same time, he led Zixia to pursue the man in black.

After Chang'e heard the alarm bells ringing from all directions, she knew that she would definitely not be able to escape. However, she had a new plan in mind, so she took the prince back to the cold palace and deliberately left some traces for him. People tracking.

Jiang Juan and Zixia followed the trail all the way to Leng Gong, but lost the trace at a fork in the road and had to separate and pursue each other.

Chang'e deliberately slowed down her pace, and when Jiang Juan discovered her, she speeded up again, deliberately leading Jiang Juan into a dead end.

Chang'e jumped up, and just as she was about to jump over, Jiang Juan also flew into the air, and shot Chang'e down with all his strength. The guards rushed up to surround Chang'e.

Chang'e worshiped Dugu Qiubai as her teacher and practiced the most advanced martial arts and swordsmanship. Now she has reached the early stage of master's training.

But facing Jiang Juan, she was afraid of exposing her identity and did not dare to use the Dugu Nine Swords. Naturally, she was restricted in every way she could use her hands.

 After a fight, Chang'e found an opportunity and deliberately took a shot from Jiang Juan, pretending to protect herself and threw the prince out.

Jiang Juan didn't care about Chang'e anymore and hurriedly went to catch the child, but Chang'e found the opportunity to escape.

After Chang'e escaped, she held on to her injuries and took off her night clothes and destroyed them while fleeing to the West Palace. On the way, she met Shen Lian who was searching for the assassin.

 Shen Lian saw Chang'e and saluted quickly: "My lord."

Chang'e said calmly: "What's going on?"

“An assassin has appeared in the East Palace, and I am leading a search for him.”

"What? Then why don't you go quickly? I will go to the West Palace to have a look to prevent the assassin from escaping into the West Palace and disturbing the Queen."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Looking at Shen Lian and others leaving, Chang'e whispered to herself: "Zixia, Shen Lian, you must rescue the little prince."

I originally planned to write one chapter, but there is too much content and many details have been omitted, but I still can’t finish one chapter.

Some people may not like this plot, but it has been planned for a long time, and it is also a conclusion to the previous chapter. After the end, there will be no more palace fighting plot.
