Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Prince An's residence.

After Miao Linlang delivered the letter, she was still turned away.

Kang Heng opened the letter at the door, and then personally delivered it to Li Chen.

"It seems to her that she doesn't quite understand what you mean, my lord."

Li Chen looked at the above words with a half-smile, and thought of the two concubines that the emperor had given to Mo Che, he really found it interesting, raised the corners of his lips, and clicked on the table with great interest.

"It seems that there has been a rift between Xia Bai'an and Mo Che."

"Then, what do you mean, my lord, should Mo Che be dealt with first, or..."

"Mo Che is now Taiwei Sun's side. It's nothing to offend the emperor, but Taiwei Sun is loyal to the emperor and wants to support the Seventh Prince. Li Jie is not dead, at least he is loyal to the emperor for now. Now that I trust Mo Che so much, I must be preparing to train him to be right and left. This king cannot touch him for the time being."

Li Chen lazily leaned on the cushion, rubbing the ink on the paper with his fingertips, his eyes deepened a little.

Kang Heng curled his lips: "If I had known that he was such a big hidden danger, I shouldn't have waited for Cen Yishan at that time. We should have gone to finish him off. Wouldn't it be a one-and-done one?"

"Mo Che is not all useless. At least, he brought such an interesting woman to the capital."

Li Chen tidied up the letter, put it back on the desk, and lifted his chin slightly, "She can obviously stay away from Mo Che and do whatever she wants. But...she just stays by Mo Che's side with peace of mind, How strange."

If even a liar like Mo Che could win Xia Bai'an's favor.

Then I, a fairly loyal person, had made a lot of deals with her through the Huafang Gambling House before, could it be... that I could let her protect him willingly.

He vaguely remembered the imperial palace when he was a child, and thought of the hands stretched out to him, and slowly lowered his eyes.

Kang Heng saw that he had already remembered, but he continued to ask.

"Since the prince wants to get Xia Bai'an, his subordinates will naturally keep an eye on him in the future, but...it will be a spring outing in a few days. I don't know if the emperor is planning to go there after seeing the prince and prince in such a mess."

"In his mind, ostentation is naturally indispensable. It's just...Xiao Honglang frequently mentioned the chess pieces hidden in the court hall, have you found them?"

Li Chen raised his eyes, broke free from the memory in an instant, and put on a solemn expression.

Hearing this, Kang Heng frowned and shook his head again and again.

"Hong Yao and those people have a lot of hidden skills, rich and powerful people, and even the rebels in small places have their shadows. Xiao Honglang himself has even entered and left the capital many times, but he has never met any strange people, so he has no way to find clues .”

"This Xiao Honglang... Forget it, at least he is willing to share some of the gold that the emperor can't find with this king, so that this king can recruit soldiers and buy horses, and he is more willing to support this king to ascend the throne. Just see if you can try it out this spring outing..."

Li Chen curled his lips.

Kang Heng next to him only felt cold from his feet.

The prince usually shows such an expression, he must be about to do something bad.

He swallowed his saliva: "How does the prince want to try?"

"Tell Xiao Honglang, this king wants to test the people around the emperor for this trip to the horse farm, so he decides to do an assassination to test the waters, and asks the people buried in the court to help him a little bit and act as a cover. There is no need to talk to the king, just Just help me look at it."

Kang Heng was shocked: "My lord, are you really going to..."

"It kills two birds with one stone, of course this king wants to try." Li Chen smiled slightly.

Regardless of the level of the people around the emperor.

It is very important to let Xiao Honglang's chess pieces be completely exposed under his nose.

……

Shiqu Building.

After Qian Mingshu heard Mo Che's plan, his soul went out of his body for a little while.

It wasn't until the shop waiter knocked on the door suddenly and asked if he could come over to serve pastries, that he came back to his senses and said irritably, "No pastries!"

The waiter in the shop only confirmed that the people in the room were fine, and left wisely.

Mo Che, who was sitting across from him, still had a calm expression on his face, staring at Qian Mingshu's flustered look, and said calmly.

"It's fundamental to sit still. Why are you so frizzy?"

"..."

Is this a frizz problem!

Thinking of him as the rich second generation of a small local rich man, he was just shattered by Xia Bai'an back then, and even linked to the dark past of the family. things!

He wiped the unwarranted sweat from his brow and drank the whole pot of water before he spoke firmly.

"Master, if what you said just now is done, you will be killed! Not to mention Xia Bai'an, even I want you to stop. If you really do this, how many people will die!"

Mo Che raised his eyes: "Aren't there fewer people dying now? At the very least, Wang An and Li Chen knew how to make a living for the people in his fiefdom. What about the current emperor... During the epidemic before, if there were no Xia Bai'an and others, the emperor would have indulged him." The princes suppressed it."

After hearing this, Qian Mingshu suddenly clenched his fists and sweated profusely.

And not only that, compared with An Wang Li Chen, today's princes are almost all impulsive people. Although he didn't directly see the scene of sending troops to suppress at that time, he later learned from Xia Bai'an that burning people and poisoning people About the water source, I was afraid in my heart.

Seeing that he was persuaded, Mo Che continued: "As for the rest, I will arrange it later. At this moment, you just need to keep an eye on Wang An's movements, take care of Xia Bai'an, and don't let her run away, it's you responsibility."

Qian Mingshu looked coldly: "Master, but you have never respected Xia Bai'an's wishes in doing this. If she is not willing to continue with you..."

"She has long been unable to stay out of the matter. Ever since she followed me into the capital, all forces have been eyeing her. At the beginning, she took the initiative to come to the capital. Now, she should be responsible for her own choice."

After Mo Che finished speaking, he left Shiqu Tower without looking back.

Qian Mingshu sat alone for a long time, trying to clear the whole story of this matter, then got up and left Shiqu Building, came to Xia Mansion, and learned that Xia Bai'an was collecting some things from the backyard, so he followed to the backyard.

Xia Bai'an heard the footsteps behind him, hurriedly sent the things into his own space, and turned around empty-handed.

"Is something wrong with me?"

"Can't you just come and ask me?"

Qian Mingshu jumped down from the steps and walked in front of her. He saw that the grass plants had fewer fruits, but Xia Bai'an didn't take anything in his hand, which was a bit strange.

But the matter between her and Mo Che is more important.

Qian Mingshu didn't pay much attention to this matter, and said: "I heard from the master that you came back to the old mansion to live for a while, did you quarrel?"

"...don't mention which pot is not open."

Xia Bai'an glanced at him, wiped off the dirt on his hands, and walked towards the dining room with his dress.

Qian Mingshu couldn't find words to comfort her, so he had to talk to her through the children's matter: "However, if you put the children in the new mansion and stay with those two women, are you not afraid of accidents?"
