One touch and one silence

"So that's why you want to go see the imperial concubine?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and his expression looked much better.

Just don't betray him.

Father should have three more children outside. As for where they are, they are probably in Qilian Town, where the private soldiers are."

In fact, there should be four, and the one with Concubine Shu was also there, but Prince Zhennan thought that the child was dead.

The empress dowager just asked the people below to change it. She didn't care whose child it was, as long as she knew it was the emperor's.

"Father, please quickly pass the message to General Yu. Don't kill those children."

The emperor only now understood Xiaoqi's purpose.

It turned out to be for his own children.

Suddenly his heart was touched and he felt that Xiaoqi was a good sister who loved her brothers and sisters.

"Lei Yu, follow what the Seventh Prince said and quickly send a letter to General Yu. According to the ages of the princes, all the children of that age group should be kept."

Lei Yu responded and went out.

Nanzhi looked at the middle-aged man who suddenly appeared. It seemed that there were quite a lot of people around the emperor.

"Father, this matter still needs to be kept secret. At least, it must not be disclosed before the Prince of Zhennan rebels. We just need to control them."

"There is already one in the Queen Mother's palace. It is the Concubine's first child."

"Father, just ask Sanqi and you'll know where that person is."

After Nanzhi finished speaking, she basically drew what she had drawn today and the place where that boy lived in his head.

He directly gave the stack of paper to the emperor.

"Why do they want to replace my child? The Queen Mother is obviously the Imperial Concubine's aunt."

The emperor didn't understand.

He couldn't figure it out.

Nanzhi actually didn’t know much. She only got a glimpse of the Queen Mother’s whereabouts, and she didn’t quite understand the reason.

"I only know one thing. The purpose of their doing this is to make you and your son kill each other. No matter who kills who, they will be happy."

Such a huge price to pay for this? The emperor couldn't believe it.

Then why are the fifth prince and the sixth princess okay?

Is there something wrong with the second prince?

"I'm tired, I've done everything I could!"

"Liu Yue!"

Nanzhi shouted something to the outside, and Liuyue pushed the door open and walked in.

"I'm tired, hold me!"

Nanzhi looked a little bad after she finished speaking. Liuyue felt a little distressed and wanted to scold Nanzhi for not taking care of her body.

But I also understand that the matter is probably very serious, otherwise His Highness would not have acted like this.

Liu Yue picked up Nanzhi in one hand like a princess, without any effort.

She felt that her master was very light, so light that she could not even feel his weight.

Before she took two steps, she felt her master's breathing had become even and Nanzhi had fallen asleep in her arms.

Liu Yue was very careful, even when walking, he used his internal energy, for fear of startling his master.

The emperor was left alone in the imperial study.

The emperor watched Nanzhi leave. Without outsiders around, he sat down dejectedly on the chair.

I feel completely drained of energy.

Looking back over these years, I thought I did a good job, but in fact, I couldn’t even protect my own children.

He laughed at himself. He was originally very happy, but it turned out that everything was an illusion.

"Hahahaha! What a joke!"

"All these years I've lived have turned out to be a joke!" The emperor was so angry that he smashed the teacup directly to the ground.

Unsatisfied, he waved his hand to clear the mess on his desk and kicked over the desk in front of him.

When Manager Xu saw this, he didn't know how to comfort her and handed her a new teacup.

"Your Majesty, don't hold back your anger. I still have a lot."

Steward Xu held an empty teacup in both hands and respectfully handed it to the emperor.

I don't know what the Seventh Prince said to His Majesty that caused His Majesty to lose his composure like this.

This is even more terrifying than if Your Majesty knew that Prince Zhennan was rebelling.

"Tell me! Have I been like a blind man these years?"

"I am still indulging in my mother's concern and my brothers' solidarity."

“Child’s thoughtfulness!”

"In my life, I have been worthy of the heavens above, the earth below, and the people. I think I have done well enough."

"Now I realize it's just a trap covered with flowers and brocade."

"I! I am incompetent!" The emperor sat decadently in the chair, looking up at the ceiling, and fell into self-doubt.

The emperor's words made Manager Xu's eyes red.

"Your Majesty, that's not right. How can you be blamed for these things? It was all done by that woman."

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't blame yourself!"

The emperor laughed at himself.

"You are just deceiving me!"

"Go! Since these things were caused by me, I will end them."

"I will always give the prince a stable world."

Manager Xu was heartbroken watching these things, but there was nothing he could do. Anyone else would probably be scared to death by all these things happening.

Once the silver in the treasury is recovered, he will make sure to cut these people into pieces, otherwise he will never be able to get rid of the hatred in his heart!

Qilian Town, as long as this threat is eliminated, he can let go and deal with those people of King Zhennan.

Qilian Mountain

Yu Qinglin, along with twenty secret guards, once again climbed up the Qilian Mountains at night.

The group was dressed in black, their faces covered, and their movements were mysterious.

"The five of you stay outside and watch. If someone spots us, give the signal. The rest of you split into two groups. The eight of you go over there, and the seven of us go over here and meet up inside."

"If you are discovered, retreat immediately. Do you understand?"

After Yu Qinglin gave the order, he led the seven people to the right.

Not long after walking, he raised his hand to signal to stop, and Yu Qinglin discovered a trap under his feet.

The secret guards following behind him then discovered that the group of people in the mountains were so frightened that they had set traps on the road.

Now they didn’t dare let General Yu walk in front.

"General, let us walk in front and you walk in the middle. Your Majesty has asked us to protect you."

Yu Qinglin did not argue with them. He had killed them one by one in the beginning, so why would he care about these little traps?

The secret guard was in front, exploring the way carefully, looking carefully at the road under his feet and listening carefully in all directions.

Suddenly they heard a voice talking.

"When do you think we can get out of this place? It's been almost five years, and we haven't even been down the mountain."

"My old lover must have forgotten me a long time ago!"

"Hahaha, maybe she has already given birth to several babies!"

Yu Qinglin and others heard another man's merciless ridicule.

"Go away... Crow's Mouth! Xiao Hong loves me the most. This is impossible!"

"Come on, we haven't been down the mountain in these years. I heard that there are people who haven't been down the mountain for seven or eight years."

"Don't think about it!" The man's voice became smaller and smaller.

"That's enough! Spoil the fun! Have you finished pooping?"

"Alright, alright! What's the hurry?"

Yu Qinglin saw a good opportunity and signaled to the people around him.

The two secret guards in front crouched and walked over carefully.

Just as the two men pulled up their trousers and were still laughing, the secret guard slashed their necks with a knife.

Hug them and gently place them on the ground.
