Soon, before I knew it, the night was already deep.

In the palace of the royal capital.

In the Xiuyu Pavilion, candles are brightly lit.

Sudden.

——Crackling!

There was the sound of vessels or vases breaking to the ground.

There were two guards with swords standing at the door of the attic. After hearing this sound, they were obviously used to it and were even chatting leisurely.

"How many times is this today?" one of them asked.

"It must be eighty or ninety. Every time I count too carefully, the princess always starts making noises in the middle of the night. Is she going to let people sleep well?"

Another couldn't help but complain.

"Isn't it obvious? The princess is acting like this just because she doesn't want the Second Prince to have a good rest. She is trying to torture the Second Prince in a different way."

"That's right, but it's not good for the second prince to like someone else. He just likes princesses..."

"Oh, I'm going, don't say anything, the second prince is here!"

Xiuyu Pavilion is surrounded by water. It can be said to be a pavilion built on the water. The water is clear and there are koi carps in the pond. The pavilion has three floors. Standing on the top floor, the view is extremely broad and can almost cover the entire scenery of Dongmeng Palace. All in sight.

But it is an excellent place. This attic was originally used for enjoying the scenery. Now that the royal city has changed hands, the princess still gets the best treatment, all because of the favor of the second prince.

The visitor climbed up the stairs and walked very fast. He soon arrived at the door. The biological mother of the second prince was a Jiangnan woman from Beiyan Kingdom. She was different from the rough and heroic woman from Dongmeng. She was a very gentle person, but in She died after giving birth to the second prince. The second prince's mother's family declined. He was not the original candidate for the crown prince of the Eastern Mongolia Kingdom at all. He always acted in a low-key manner. After Dongmeng became a vassal state of the Beiyan Kingdom, it was divided into a small area. If this is the case Death to old age can be regarded as a good death.

But this time the eldest prince pulled the second prince into action, and the original third prince and now the king of Dongmeng, Xuanyuan Che, was missing. If they were defeated, all of them would die together.

Originally, Princess Dongmeng shouldn't be treated like this, but the second prince is still a lover.

This matter has long been spread among the soldiers, and many people have criticized it.

But there is no way, who makes someone the prince?

"Second Prince!"

"But the princess is making trouble again?"

The second prince has completely inherited all the advantages of the late princess. He is tall, but has a delicate face and fair skin. If it were not for this proud height, no one would think of him as a native of Dongmeng.

Before the guard could reply, the sound of a vase breaking was heard again in the room, and at the same time, a domineering female voice also sounded.

"Xuanyuan Qing! Is it you? Let that troubled Xuanyuan Mang come to see me!"

In the room, the serving maids knelt on the floor.

Su Jingqin put her hands on her hips and had a pretty face, but her bruises were a bit serious at the moment, her lower abdomen was slightly bulging, and she had one foot on the stool, looking arrogant and domineering.

She has never been so wronged in her entire life. She was only imprisoned by her father in the past. But who are these two brothers and are they worthy of being compared with her father?

If she hadn't been worried about what was in her stomach, she would have killed everyone with a whip!

Oh no... the whip she brought specially when she got married was taken away. Thinking of this, she became even more angry.

Those were whips that she had collected for many years, and each one was a treasure.

"Princess, you are pregnant and should take a good rest to avoid fetal contractions again." Xuanyuan Qing's doting and helpless voice sounded at the door.

"Who caused me to have fetal congestion?"

Su Jingqin raised her slender eyebrows and retorted unceremoniously, "If Xuanyuan Mang hadn't been grateful, repaid kindness with hatred, and colluded with foreign enemies to kill my husband while hunting, leaving him still uncertain about his life or death, would I have moved my fetus? The murderer was You guys, you told me not to be angry? What? You have said all the good things and I have become an unreasonable person?"

Ever since the news of Xuanyuan Che's assassination came, Su Jingqin was worried every day. After waiting for a long time, what was waiting was not Xuanyuan Che's safe return, but Xuanyuan Mang's army.

I don’t know who Xuanyuan Mang has colluded with. Not only have all the people who left Xuanyuan Che in the royal city to protect her have been arrested, but the hidden stakes left by the fifth brother in Dongmeng have also been surrounded and suppressed. How come she didn’t notice it in the first place? Why are these two brothers so smart?

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qing looked helpless and said, "Princess, don't act like a child."

"I don't want to see you, ask your elder brother to come see me! Or, ask that military advisor to come see me."

With the intelligence of these two brothers, of course they couldn't do such a thing. The most important thing was the military advisor.

It is said that this military advisor wore a black robe that covered him almost from head to toe, so no one saw his true appearance.

If he is really that powerful, Su Jingqin is worried that not only Dongmeng, but also Beiyan Kingdom will be in trouble.

"Princess, it's so late and the military advisor has already taken a rest. How about... tomorrow? I will definitely let him come to see you tomorrow!"

Xuanyuan Qing coaxed.

This is another lie to a child. Su Jingqin rolled her eyes angrily. These days, she has finally figured out that this second prince is just an embroidered pillow with no say. If he didn't hold a heavy army in his hands, Xuanyuan Mang would not ask him to cooperate at all.

As for his love for her, Su Jingqin not only didn't dare to move, but also felt a little off-putting. She was the dignified fourth princess of Beiyan Kingdom.

The Supreme Emperor Su Yijun is his father, and the late Emperor Su Lixun is her brother.

People who like her can line up from the capital to come to Dongmeng, and still wonder if he likes her?

Su Jingqin felt that it was the greatest gift that she did not kill him with a knife, because she wanted to kill her husband and take possession of her under the pretext of liking him.

And those people thought that she was here in good condition because of Xuanyuan Qing. Su Jingqin only felt that those people were out of their minds.

Even though there was some reason for this on his part, it only accounted for a small part. Xuanyuan Mang still dared not touch her, all because of his fifth brother.

It is said that Emperor Beiyan is ruthless, but such a ruthless person did not harm any blood relatives of the royal family when he was seizing the throne. This shows that Emperor Beiyan values ​​blood relatives. If these people hurt her, Su Jingqin believes that, With the temper of the fifth brother, there is no need for the Dongmeng King District to even exist.

snort! This is the confidence given to her by her mother's family! What does Xuanyuan Qing have to do with him?

After fussing for a while, Su Jingqin felt vaguely uncomfortable in her lower abdomen, so she stopped fussing.

She was making trouble to meet the people behind the scenes, not to make her Bao'er suffer.

Su Jingqin touched her belly, her face softened a bit. Although she was still worried about Xuanyuan Che, she also believed that he would not die so easily. As for using her brain, she tried and tried, but it had no effect. , then she should lie down and wait for others to save her.

Xuanyuan Qing heard there was no movement in the room and breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort, he saw a guard coming over in a hurry.

"Second Prince! Sir, please come!"

Xuanyuan Qing was stunned.

"So late? What did you say, sir?"

The guard shook his head, "Not really."

Xuanyuan Qing glanced at the closed door and sighed softly, "Let's go."

Follow the guard.

Xuanyuan Qing soon came to a small courtyard.

Opening the door, Xuanyuan Qing was a little surprised to see Xuanyuan Mang already sitting next to the table.

The guard closed the door knowingly.

There were only three people left in the room.

"Sir, Leak has called us two here, but do you have something important to discuss?"

The two brothers looked at the man who was almost half-hidden in the darkness. There seemed to be an indescribable smell like rotting wood floating in the air.

Xuanyuan Qing frowned unconsciously.

"Send someone to search the inn."

In the darkness, the man's hoarse voice came, sounding like the sound of a saw rubbing wood, very harsh and unpleasant.

These few words seemed to cost him a lot of effort.

"Searching the inn? Why?" Xuanyuan Qing was here to make soy sauce, but when Xuanyuan Mang asked, he didn't say anything.

A month ago, Xuanyuan Mang borrowed troops from him on the pretext of helping him get the princess.

Yes, he liked Su Jingqin. He had already fallen in love with her when he first met her. Over the years, almost all the concubines he found were based on her appearance. Some of them had eyes similar to hers. Some are lips.

But in the end, a fake is still a fake. The less he can get it, the more he wants it.

As for his love for Su Jingqin, almost everyone knew it, and it was not a secret that needed to be concealed. Therefore, when Xuanyuan Mang came to find her, he agreed without hesitation. He even didn't care about the child in Su Jingqin's belly. If Su Jingqin is willing, he will treat this child as his own.

Unfortunately, the princess refused.

But being able to be like now, separated by a door, listening to her voice, and occasionally looking at her from a distance, he would die without regrets.

"The person I was looking for finally came."

In the darkness, the man's voice was filled with morbid excitement.

Suddenly, the man stretched out a hand and shook it in vain. Xuanyuan Mang felt as if someone had strangled his throat. His eyes bulged, his face turned red, and his eyes were filled with fear.

The hand was extremely pale, like a dead body that had been soaked in water for a long time. There was no sign of life that belonged to a living person.

Xuanyuan Qing took a few steps back knowing the current situation. This was not the first time he had seen a man use this ability, and he was already used to it.

but……

Xuanyuan Qing twitched the tip of his nose, feeling that the smell of rotten wood was a little stronger. Xuanyuan Qing was no stranger to this smell.

The mother-in-law died after giving birth to him. Xuanyuan Qing was raised by the wet nurse. A year ago, the wet nurse accidentally fell and became bedridden. Even though famous doctors were consulted, they still could not save her. The wet nurse was What died in his arms, before death, besides the strong smell of herbs, was also mixed with the smell of rotten wood.

The military advisor... is about to die.

For some reason, Xuanyuan Qing suddenly had such an idea in his head.

The man didn't really want to kill Xuanyuan Mang, he just gave him a simple lesson and let him go. Xuanyuan Mang's body was a bit stronger than Xuanyuan Che's, and such a big man was lifted up like a little chicken. , and was thrown away like a tattered rag. This huge contrast gave people an indescribable sense of intimidation.

Xuanyuan Mang didn't dare to get up, he lay on the ground and lowered his head, "Yes! Military advisor."

"Okay, you go out."

The man waved his hands, his voice full of fatigue.

The two of them responded respectfully and walked out of the room.

"Brother, tell me, who is the military advisor looking for?"
