From Princess of the Cold Palace to Empress of Heaven

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang fell silent, and fell into deep thought for a while.

What King Wu'an said was right. He has worked in the officialdom for many years and has deep roots. Even if she can defeat the second prince and seize the throne, she is helpless in the face of a stagnant court situation.

Although her strength is strong, it is impossible to kill all the ministers she accepts, so that no one will do things for her.

If King Wu An really sincerely joins her sect, then her real power will increase several times in an instant!

Xiao Ming【&*

"Then why should I trust you?"

"That's my concern too!"

King Wu'an said in a deep voice:

"I have very little contact with the princess, and I don't know much about it, so it is inevitable that we will lack trust when we cooperate. If it is self-defeating, it will be a bad thing for both of us!"

Xiao Minghuang nodded slightly, expressing agreement.

At this time, as if she suddenly remembered something, she looked at King Wu An and asked:

"My lord specially asked Miss Xiu'er to come out to see her. I don't know why?"

Hearing this, King Wu An smiled and said:

"The princess must have guessed it too."

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang was noncommittal. She had indeed sensed King Wu An's intentions, but she didn't know exactly what it was, so she didn't open it up.

"Oh?"

King Wu'an said:

"Our cooperation between the two parties requires a middleman to act as a bridge between the two parties, convey information, and exchange information. This person must be fully trusted by both of us, otherwise, cooperation will be difficult to establish."

Xiao Minghuang said lightly:

"So, the lord wants Miss Xiu'er to act as the middleman?"

King Wu An laughed and said:

"Not bad!"

119. Break up, Mortgage; You do things, I rest assured

"From now on, Xiu'er will live in the princess' mansion. If there is anything, the princess can discuss with Xiu'er."

King Wu An laughed.

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang glanced at Xu Xiuer who was sitting obediently by the side, and said slowly:

"Miss Xiu'er is the only granddaughter of the lord. Countless people are staring at her. Let her live in my mansion like this. Is the lord already planning to break openly with the second prince?"

King Wu An nodded and said:

"Princess Tianzong is smart, and what she said is not bad. The Grand Competition will be held in the near future, and it is time to showdown with the second prince. There is no need for the old man to continue to make false claims with him."

talking room.

King Wu'an fell to his knees and saluted respectfully:

"A while ago, I mistakenly believed the words of the second prince without checking, and sent a villain to assassinate His Highness. I deserve death. I beg Your Highness to forgive me!"

Hearing this, Xu Xiu'er was startled. She never expected that her grandfather would send someone to assassinate Princess Ziwei!

She quickly fell to her knees, not daring to let out a breath.

Xiao Minghuang looked at King Wu'an calmly. She already knew the whole story of the assassination in Beiyang City a few months ago.

Since then, King Wu'an has planned to put his eggs in two baskets.

A person like King Wu'an knows the current affairs and knows how to advance and retreat.

It's ugly to say that it's a grass on the wall, and the wind blows on both sides.

It is impossible for Xiao Minghuang to really trust him, and right now he just wants to save unnecessary trouble.

After she takes over the power, she must start to reduce the power of King Wu'an, otherwise don't worry.

At that time, if King Wu'an knows the current affairs, then it is not impossible to let him go home to take care of the elderly. If he is not, then don't blame her for being cruel.

While thinking, Xiao Minghuang said lightly:

"My lord's behavior that time was indeed a heinous crime, but this princess thinks that my lord was deceived by a villain, so I won't be an example!"

King Wu An heaved a sigh of relief, stood up, took out a storage bag from his arms, and pushed it in front of Xiao Minghuang.

"Your Highness, here is the thing that the servants gave to His Highness to make amends, His Highness must accept it!"

Seeing King Wu An's anxious expression, Xiao Minghuang didn't refuse, and directly accepted it.

If she did not accept these gifts, King Wu An would not be at ease, and troubles might arise out of thin air.

After accepting the gift, Xiao Minghuang's expression softened, and King Wu An's hanging heart was finally relieved.

"This princess knows that the lord is thinking about the country and the people of Daxia in his heart, and he will faithfully assist His Majesty in the future. Don't make such a mistake again!"

"I obey my orders!"

King Wu An became more respectful, standing in front of Xiao Minghuang with a burly figure, like a naughty boy who was being taught a lesson.

After beating King Wu'an for a while, Xiao Minghuang planned to leave.

"It's getting late today, the princess won't let the prince rest, just leave now."

Hearing this, King Wu An hurriedly pulled Xu Xiu'er and pushed her to the front of Xiao Minghuang.

"From now on, Xiu'er will be entrusted to His Highness, His Highness Wanwang treats her well! I will only have her as a granddaughter!"

Seeing Xu Xiu'er standing there timidly, she looked like a little daughter-in-law.

Xiao Minghuang sighed softly, until King Wu An sold this little girl to herself in order to protect herself.

It is said that she is regarded as a liaison between the two parties, but in fact, if there is a really important matter, how can it be possible to pass through her, a little girl who doesn't understand anything?

In fact, Xu Xiu'er was given to her as a proton for peace of mind.

The corner of Xiao Minghuang's mouth curled into a gentle smile, and said:

"Don't worry, my lord, the princess will naturally treat her well."

King Wu'an breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, looked at Xu Xiu'er, and said quickly:

"I still don't thank Her Royal Highness!"

Xu Xiuer hurriedly bowed and saluted:

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

Xiao Minghuang nodded, turned around and walked out the door.

Seeing this, Xu Xiuer hurriedly followed.

When Xiao Minghuang walked out of the courtyard, he saw two black figures standing under the corridor. Looking carefully, he found that they were the fifth prince and the sixth prince.

Sensing her aura, the fifth and sixth princes walked over immediately.

"Princess!"

"Princess!"

The two spoke in unison.

A look of surprise appeared on Xiao Minghuang's face, he always felt that these two people seemed to be a little worried about her.

Although the fifth prince and the sixth prince are called brothers and sisters with her, they have not seen each other for so many years, and there is no brother and sister relationship at all.

From the time they met to the present, they had never met as siblings, and they were not much different from ordinary strangers.

"Excuse me, both of you, to wait here for a long time. What's the matter?"

She still remembers that the sixth prince lost to her a magic weapon of the profound rank and a sword technique of the profound rank.

as predicted.

The sixth prince waved his palm, and a storage bag flew out, hanging in front of Xiao Minghuang.

"My skills are not as good as others, and I lost to the princess. This is a mysterious magic weapon and sword technique, please accept it, princess."

Xiao Minghuang was not polite, and directly accepted the storage bag. She knew that the sixth prince was a swordsman.

If she doesn't accept these things, she will look down on the sixth prince.

The Fifth Prince said:

"Princess, I have discussed with the sixth prince, we want to stay in the capital."

"Oh."

Xiao Minghuang responded lightly, what did these two people have to do with her staying in the capital?

Seeing that Xiao Minghuang didn't respond, the fifth prince continued:

"We have no foundation in the capital, and we want to ask the princess to provide us with a place to live. As a price, within three years, we can become the princess' guards!"

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang smiled lightly. She is a majestic Princess Ziwei, does she need two boys from the mere Spring Realm to be her guards?

However, the fifth and sixth princes are also princes after all, so it is impossible to say such things.

"Both of you are princes, how can you condescend to serve as my guards? There is no need to mention this matter again."

After saying that, Xiao Minghuang was afraid that these two people would have some strange thoughts, so he turned around and left immediately without stopping.

When Xu Xiuer saw them leaving, she immediately followed.

Looking at the back of Xiao Minghuang leaving in a hurry, the fifth and sixth princes looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Let me just say it. If you say that, the princess will definitely not agree."

The Fifth Prince complained.

"I didn't expect it, it's very useful to say that to my junior sister when I was in the sect..."

Hearing this, the fifth prince sneered and said:

"Who is the princess, compare her with your little junior sister, is she worthy?"

The sixth prince did not refute, and he also felt that even if ten junior junior sisters were tied together, they could not compare to Princess Ziwei's hair.

"Forget it, anyway, Dabi is approaching, and we will definitely see each other again. At that time, let's stop covering up and just say that we want to be the princess's follower."

"Ah."

When Xiao Minghuang was in the living room just now, they had already reached a consensus.

Princess Ziwei's talent is unparalleled in the southern border. If they want to achieve better growth, they are not limited to a mere southern border. Choosing to follow her is the best choice.

The Fifth Prince turned his head and glanced at the direction of the Martial Arts Field, then turned his head and said:

"Let's leave it at this point. On the day of the big competition, we must strive to become the princess's subordinate. Your side... is there no problem?"

What the fifth prince said was obviously referring to the Spirit Sword Sect.

The sixth prince is an inner disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect, so if he left the sect quietly and stayed in Daxia and would not return to the sect, the strong of the Spirit Sword Sect will most likely feel grudges, and may have another life. The incident is also unknown.

The sixth prince frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"I'll write a letter to Zongmen with my own hand, explaining the whole story, and it should be all right."

He remembered that the sect stipulated that if an inner sect disciple wanted to leave the sect, he only needed the consent of any elder of the inner sect.

He just needs to write a letter to Elder Xuanjian to explain what happened, and since Elder Xuanjian values ​​him, there is no reason to disagree.

Hearing this, the Fifth Prince felt that things would not go so smoothly, but he and the Sixth Prince did not have a deep friendship after all, so it was difficult to say words of admonition.

"...I hope you don't get the princess into trouble."

The sixth prince frowned and said:

"Do I need your reminder?"

Hearing this, the Fifth Prince took a deep look at the Sixth Prince, turned around and left without further words.

After being separated from the Fifth Prince, the Sixth Prince left the Wu'an Prince's Mansion directly and went straight to the inn where he stayed in the capital.

This time he went down the mountain with Feng Yi.
