Back on my wedding night, my husband sent me to the nine-thousand-year-old bed

Yan Ci said softly: "It has been such a long time and it is really not easy to investigate and find out the truth without alerting the snake. Therefore, I am willing to send the blood-clothed guards to help the old master investigate this matter."

Old Master Lu was stunned. In fact, he knew better than anyone else that the Crown Prince in front of him was very scheming when he was still nine thousand years old.

But His Royal Highness the Prince's blood-clothed guards are indeed very powerful.

Not to mention, the prince also has a very powerful information network.

It is easy to investigate a person.

It's just that no reward will be given for no merit...

Old Master Lu hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Your Highness, I don't know why you want to help me..."

Could it be that the prince wants Jialan to marry into the East Palace again? ! ! !

However, as long as Jialan can be saved, even marrying into the palace is fine, as long as she can live!

Yan Ci looked at the tearful old Mrs. Lu, coughed slightly and said: "Taifu Lu is Gu's mentor, and you are also the humerus minister of Dazhou. If there are such hidden dangers in your house, Gu will help you eliminate them." Hidden dangers are what should be done.”

This reason sounds a bit high-sounding.

Taifu Lu blinked and asked tentatively: "Is there anything else?"

"As for other things...that is the lonely princess who likes to eat the fruits and vegetables grown by Miss Lu."

Only then did Mr. Lu completely let go of his heart and hurriedly thanked the prince.

After finishing the affairs in the court, and before leaving the banquet and returning to the East Palace, I went to see Murong Wenyu.

In just a few days, the formerly dashing and elegant Fourth Prince of Longxi became extremely haggard, with stubble on his chin and dull eyes.

Imprisoning him was not a big blow to him.

This man was very self-confident and always determined, and the banquet did not dare to kill him.

But ever since he heard that his father, Murong Xun, had been using him as a sharpening stone for his second brother, his defenses instantly broke and he was unable to recover.

When the banquet came, Murong Wenyu raised his head and looked at the banquet, "What are you going to do?"

"If the Longxi Kingdom wants to devour our Great Zhou Dynasty, then the Great Zhou Dynasty will naturally completely defeat the Longxi Kingdom."

"No!" Murong Wenyu said quickly, "It is my father, my second brother, and the others who are ambitious. Isn't it great to let Longxi continue to be a vassal state of the Great Zhou Dynasty for so many years?"

Power is important, but no one wants to lose their lives without any chance of winning.

In fact, Yan Ci doesn’t want to do it now.

Today's Great Zhou Dynasty, with the replacement of old and new emperors, is in a troubled time, and it is not easy to start a large-scale war.

Moreover, kerosene has not yet begun to be properly developed and utilized.

But the banquet speech had to be forced on Murong Wenyu.

He sat leisurely on the Taishi chair and said slowly: "Murong Wenyu, do you think I am a womanly person? We had dealt with each other before when I was nine thousand years old, right? For those who want to destroy me? It is impossible for me to show mercy to the people of this country!”

Obviously, there are still people who are nostalgic for Murong Wenyu in the country.

He clenched his fists, suddenly raised his head and said: "I am willing to submit to you! Help you destroy all the plans of my father, the second brother, and the others, and I am also willing to provide you with our hidden troops in Longxi!"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want you to help me, go back to Longxi Kingdom, drain the fire, and sit on the throne. I will lead Longxi Kingdom to worship the Great Zhou forever!"

Yanci's slender fingers tapped the back of the chair.

He chuckled, "Not nearly enough."

Murong Wenyu also felt that the words he said were just verbal promises.

He solemnly said: "I am willing to sign an agreement between the two countries, and at the same time, return the two gold mines that were occupied by Da Zhou! If, if you are still not at ease, you can give me a poison, one that only you have The antidote to the poison!”

Murong Wenyu has no bottom line.

He was actually betting that Xiao Jingyi did not want to destroy the Longxi Kingdom.

In other words, Xiao Jingyi cannot destroy the Longxi Kingdom for the time being.

Yan Ci looked at him silently, and when a look of despair appeared on Murong Wenyu's face, he slowly spoke.

"Add one more."

"Wha, what?"

Yan Ci raised his head and said slowly: "Tell the truth about the deal between Xiao Yu and Murong Xun."

Murong Wenyu was dumbfounded, "Are you going to rehabilitate the Mu family? But are you crazy? If the civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty know that you are not of the Mu family's blood, can you, the crown prince, still do it?"

Yan Ci narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"Why can't I continue to be the prince? Then you only need to add one more sentence, saying that it was actually your father who deceived Xiao Yu. In fact, it was all to weaken the army of Dazhou and disintegrate Dazhou step by step, which happened to be the same. It’s because of the Longxi Kingdom’s ambition towards the Great Zhou Dynasty, isn’t it?”

Before the banquet, he had followed the information given by Chai Kang and found out Xiao Yu's former confidants.

Not surprisingly, those people were too loyal to Xiao Yu. After learning that he did not want the secret to be made public, they all chose to commit suicide.

But he also left something for his descendants to save their lives.

Now that we have all these things, we are just waiting for the Longxi Kingdom to provide the final proof.

Combined with the sound inside the previous mechanical clock!

But when Murong Wenyu looked at the overly calm banquet speech, he felt very frightened, "You, your Zhou family still has the Xiao family, what if they want to do blood recognition with you?"

"That's it," Yan Ci smiled slightly, the smile was very willful, "I can be your father as long as I want."

Murong Wenyu: "..."

Although these words made people feel uncomfortable, Murong Wenyu also knew how powerful and terrifying the man in front of him was.

This proves that now, the entire Great Zhou is under his control.

So what does it matter whether the bloodline is from the Xiao family or not?

As long as Jamel Xiao says yes, then yes!

If Murong Wenyu didn't think highly of Xiao Jingyi before, but now, he is convinced.

He knelt on his knees and worshiped devoutly: "My minister Murong Wenyu is willing to submit to you forever."

Yan Ci narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

He had to go back and let Huanwan prepare a poison.

I haven’t seen Huanwan again for a long time. I miss her so much.

Seeing that the banquet was about to leave, Murong Wenyu hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, my two former subordinates, Wang Yan and Chen Tuo, they..."

"He's not dead, he just suffered a little. I'll pay it back to you later." Yan Ci suddenly thought of Master Wangyou. He turned around and said, "What grudge does that monk Wangyan have against Master Wangyou?"

Last time this man went to the streets to seek revenge and wanted to kill Master Wangyou, but he was bumped into by Huan Huan.

But aren’t these two senior brothers?

The banquet speech was reviewed, and Wang Yan really responded to his name without saying a word.

Murong Wenyu thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure about this either. I'll ask him later."

"Ah."

After Yan Ci took care of all this, he returned to the East Palace eagerly with brisk steps.

When she met her, she saw her princess looking at a bamboo tube with a solemn look on her face.

He asked curiously: "Huanhan, what's wrong with you?"
