Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

The next day.

Ye Jingyao wore soft armor and went to the school grounds, followed by the ugly-looking princess Jiang Xiuning.

With his father's life and death in Jiangwu uncertain, Jiang Xiuning really didn't want to leave Beijing.

However, in ancient times, women had no right to be independent when following their husbands. Jiang Xiuning's eyes couldn't help but turn red when she thought of going to Huainan County and not knowing when she would come back.

Ye Jingyao was very proud of the spring breeze. Fifty thousand soldiers and horses was not a small number.

I thought Ye Jingyu could bargain with him before, and it was a high price for only ten thousand troops, but I didn't expect him to agree so easily.

When I thought that I would have a county to myself, I couldn't help but feel proud.

Seeing Jiang Xiuning wiping away her tears, she couldn't help but angrily said: "Why are you crying? It is a great favor for me to take you to Huainan County. If you are not grateful to me, why should you show off to me with a face of mourning?"

Jiang Xiuning couldn't help but said: "If it hadn't been for the prince, my father would not have gone to Jiangwu. How could the prince abandon him and leave Beijing on his own now?"

Ye Jingyao snorted and said, "If he didn't want to build military exploits, he wouldn't have agreed to the emperor's request. Wouldn't it be easy to imitate this king in pretending to be ill? The only blame is that he is greedy for merit, and he really deserves it."

"you……"

Jiang Xiuning was trembling with anger.

She had known for a long time that Ye Jingyao was a heartless and ungrateful person. Otherwise, how could he have abandoned Yin Qingxuan and married her instead, but she never expected that he could say such inhuman words.

Ye Jing Yaopi said with a smile: "How? Do you still dare to bite me?"

Jiang Xiuning was so angry that she couldn't help but grab his hand and bite it hard.

Ye Jingyao screamed in pain and kicked Jiang Xiuning off his horse.

Jiang Xiuning rolled to the ground. Ye Jingyaoyou couldn't understand his hatred, so he took the horse and stepped on her.

He said sarcastically: "Your appearance is far worse than Yin Qingxuan. If I hadn't taken a fancy to your father's military strength, how could I have married a mediocre person like you?"

Jiang Xiuning rolled to the side and said angrily: "You are really ambitious. Don't think that the emperor can let you go when you get to Huainan County. Don't think about how many soldiers there are in Jiangwu. How could the emperor give you fifty thousand soldiers? Ye Jingyao, Just pass out."

"Shut up, you little bitch, and you don't know that I still have two death-free gold medals in my hand. Even if Ye Jingyu is the emperor, he doesn't dare to do anything to me. Since you, a bitch, don't want to leave, I will do it." you."

He drew out the long sword hanging on his waist with a swipe sound and stabbed Jiang Xiuning.

Now that the war in Jiangwu is raging, Tonggu Pass is in danger, and the Northern Marquis can no longer make contributions, so Jiang Xiuning is of no use. When he arrives in Huainan County, he will have a lot of women.

At the critical moment, a dagger flew out of nowhere and struck Ye Jingyao's throat.

Ye Jingyao looked at the school ground less than a hundred steps away from him in disbelief. There were [-] of his soldiers there.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the direction of the school ground. The blood in his throat gushed out like spring water, and he suddenly fell to the ground with a thud.

Those unbending eyes were looking at Jiang Xiuning.

Jiang Xiuning screamed, her vision turned black, and she fainted.

The guard immediately shouted: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"Come here, the prince has been assassinated!"

After hearing this, the men and horses in the school grounds immediately ran out, led by the black-faced general Sun Moutong who scolded the eunuch as being as weak as a chicken.

He was originally from the pro-Yao faction. When he learned that he could leave the capital with King Anping, he couldn't help but be elated and ordered his troops early in the morning.

As soon as he went out, he saw Ye Jingyao lying on the ground, with blood still spurting from his throat. He was so frightened that he rolled off his horse, drew out his sword and shouted: "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin!"

Everyone didn't even see where the knife flew out from, so where could they catch the person?

When the people heard that Ye Jingyao was dead, they were so frightened that they fled in all directions. The streets were already deserted.

A soldier bravely walked up to Ye Jingyao, touched his neck, knelt on one knee and said: "General Sun, the prince is... dead."

Sun Moutong's face suddenly changed color.

He also thought that he could go to Huainan County with King Anping to do something big. Unexpectedly, before he could leave the city gate, the prince was assassinated.

He was holding the sword in his hand, but he was frightened and trembling uncontrollably.

The soldiers didn't know what to do and asked cautiously: "General Sun, what should we do?"

Sun Moutong finally came to his senses. If something like this happened, he would definitely have to report it to the emperor.

"You send the prince and princess back to the palace first, and I, the general, will enter the palace immediately."

Sun Moutong got on his horse and entered the palace anxiously.

Ye Jingyu sat on the soft couch, holding the chess piece with one hand, but he didn't make a move for a long time.

Next to him, Guan Mengting looked at the chess piece, his mind ups and downs.

At noon, when he went to court, he suddenly heard that the emperor had announced a move to let him enter the imperial study. He thought something big had happened, but unexpectedly it was the emperor who wanted to play chess.

The emperor is not someone who indulges in chess games. There must be something going on when he is suddenly allowed to enter the palace today.

Guan Mengting couldn't help but feel anxious. At this moment, he heard a soft pop and the sunspot in Ye Jingyu's hand fell.

Guan Mengting was so shocked that his body trembled slightly. Looking at the chess game again, it was already an unsolvable game.

He couldn't help but raise his hand and said: "The emperor is very good at chess, but the old minister is not as good as him."

Ye Jingyu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled: "Why do I see Prime Minister Guan absent-minded? Could it be that there is something on your mind?"

Guan Mengting said hurriedly: "I am really thinking about people's livelihood. Now that I have harvested so many wheat seeds, I will have no worries in the coming year. I also heard that many refugees have returned to their hometowns, which is really a great thing."

"It's rare for the Prime Minister to have such a heart. I'm very pleased."

Ye Jingyu unfolded his robe, stood up from the couch, and said in a slow voice: "Now Jiang Wu's meticulous work has been put to death, and their Tuyalajile King Ashlan has also been killed by King Jing. When my gunpowder arrives, Jiangwu can conquer this place in one fell swoop."

He turned around and said with a half-smile, "I called the Prime Minister here because I want to share this good news with him."

Guan Mengting's expression changed slightly.

Ashland is dead?

How is this possible?

He was highly skilled in martial arts and quick-witted, and he also carried poisonous and ever-changing masks with him. Even Prince Jing might not be his opponent, so how could he die?

Ye Jingyu must be tricking him.

Thoughts flashed in his mind, but his face was full of joy.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Now that the traitor has been put to death, Jiang Wu can be pacified just around the corner."

Ye Jingyu's eyes turned around on his face, and he said with a smile: "Seeing that the old prime minister is so happy, I know that you are loyal and patriotic, and I feel very relieved. Now that the chess game is over, I won't keep you any longer."

Guan Mengting immediately stood up and said: "The emperor's chess game is unpredictable, and it is really difficult for me to solve it. I will go back and practice my chess skills hard this time, so that I can live up to the emperor's cultivation."

As soon as Guan Mengting finished speaking, Li Defu ran in from outside.

He said in a panic: "Your Majesty, King Anping was assassinated and is dead."
