The Adventures of the Crying Princess

Beijing...

Su Beichen and Yuwen Ji chatted for a long time in the secret room, and Su Beichen couldn't help but remind him, "Your Majesty is a saint on the outside and a king on the inside, not as kind as you seem.

You probably know that I was ordered by His Majesty to monitor you these years. Although I have never done anything to offend you, I always feel guilty.

When the situation in the capital stabilizes, I plan to resign and leave for the outside world."

Yuwen Ji sneered, "You are talking nonsense again. You are monitoring me, how could I not know? Father has placed monitors in everyone's house. You are right, Father is a saint on the outside and a king on the inside, but he is a good emperor.

In order to prosper, every emperor has his own style of governing. You cannot give up your loyalty to the country just because you don't like their style.

Besides, if you leave, what will I do? Father will send others to monitor me. You know, I don't have any taboos, but I have a monkey at home. Who can guarantee that the monkey's brain circuits are always normal?

Do something incredible that ordinary people can't understand. You can understand it, but how can others understand it?"

Su Beichen smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Xiaobai knows how to act in moderation, how could he be like what the prince said?

I am just talking. Your Majesty has not yet accomplished his great cause. For the sake of your great cause, I will also stay here."

Yuwen Ji shook his head, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He had sat in that position before and knew the difficulty. He didn't like living like this again, but in order to keep his wife and children safe, he had to shoulder this burden.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Su Beichen was curious, "You don't really not want that position, do you?

What we said today will not be known by any third person. Give me a definite answer. What do you think? "

"This king wants the child and the children to be safe and happy, that's all."

"That's right, you should do so even more. You don't really think that the prince sincerely wants to be deposed.

The death of King Qi is very intriguing. The prince submitted the edict to depose the prince at this juncture, which clearly showed that he had ulterior motives.

You don’t really think that the prince had a kind heart and did not do so out of necessity, considering what he said to Xiao Bai that day in the East Palace. "

Yuwen Ji smiled and looked at Su Beichen, "You still say that you don't understand politics. You have suffered a lot these years. You have been hiding your strength and pretending to be crazy for so long for me.

Master Su could never have imagined in his wildest dreams that the scoundrel he had scolded for more than twenty years was actually a talented writer.

"How dare you say that? If you hadn't been playing crazy, would I have done this? Forget about how others see me, but do you know how painful my old man's stick is? If it weren't for you, would I have to suffer this?"

"Don't say this again, especially don't tell the child. I'm afraid she'll be jealous." Thinking of Bai Yimeng's description of him and Su Beichen, he couldn't help laughing out loud, "Okay, I'll fight for that position. For the child and the baby, and for you."

"Go to hell, don't think I don't know what your monkey said about me behind my back. If it weren't for the fact that she's a princess, I would have beaten her up a long time ago."

Su Beichen was not stupid, so he knew why Yuwen Ji was laughing. He had also heard what Bai Yimeng said about him behind his back.

Yuwen Ji smiled politely, "The second son plotted rebellion, and the emperor seemed to have only confined him, but it was just for show. He was already dead. He is just left with a title, which is just there to stand there.

The emperor wanted to create a situation where the father was kind and the son was filial, and the brothers were friendly and respectful. After all, his ascension to the position of crown prince in his early years was not glorious.

He was worried that people would say that he had taken the crown prince from his brother, and now the retribution was coming to his sons. He was worried that someone would dig up the past and ruin his reputation. After all, when people get old, they care more about their reputation a hundred years later.

The announcement of the Prince of Qi's death at this time could be attributed to the chaos in the capital, the petty tyranny, the ineffectiveness of the Jingzhao Prefecture, and so on. In short, it had nothing to do with his father.

Su Beichen nodded slightly, agreeing deeply, "What about the crown prince? Was it also arranged by His Majesty?"

"Didn't you say it before? The Crown Prince is not simple. The reason why Father doesn't like the Crown Prince and has been cultivating me as a backup is simply because he thinks that the Crown Prince has too many ideas and is too uncontrollable.

Let me make an unfounded guess. How could a woman like Concubine Shu poison the Crown Prince, no matter how powerful she was? In other words, rather than saying that Concubine Shu poisoned the Crown Prince, it would be better to say that the Emperor poisoned the Crown Prince.

My father is the emperor. Without his secret help, no matter how capable Concubine Shu is, she cannot harm the prince.

As for the decree to depose the crown prince, there are many possibilities. It is not ruled out that the emperor asked the people around the crown prince to encourage the crown prince to do so."

"Your Highness, have you thought about how to deal with this?" Su Beichen kicked the suspect who fell to the ground.

Yuwen Ji took out a detoxification pill and gave it to the suspect. After the suspect slowly woke up, he knocked him out again, "That's good, don't worry, this guy will wake up at any time and hear our conversation.

The current situation is unclear. The emperor sent the child and her third brother to the war, clearly intending to reduce the power of the Bai family.

If they win, the Bai family will suffer heavy casualties, not to mention the loss of their vitality, and their original morale will also be gone. If they lose, it will give my father the opportunity to reduce the Bai family's military power.

The Bai family has been so popular in recent years, no less arrogant than the Marquis of Zhenbei in the past. The child is also a naughty monkey, getting into trouble all day long, but the emperor, thinking of the friendship between the old friends, tolerates her again and again.

But this tolerance is not without a bottom line. The heart of the king is hard to predict, why doesn't the monkey understand?

Fortunately, Ping An Xi Le is likable enough to make Father and Mother happy, otherwise this girl would not be alive today. If we lose this battle, I dare not imagine what will happen to her?

Thinking about this, I shudder. I must take that position, otherwise my life will be in jeopardy, and what about her and the child? "

Seeing Yuwen Ji's worried face, Su Beichen smiled instead, "I knew you wanted it a long time ago. Are you still pretending with me? Do you still treat me as your friend?

I know you are in a difficult situation, so it is not easy to say these things to others, let alone to Xiaobai. Don't worry, I will help you.

From now on, everything will remain the same. I guess His Majesty will not depose the Crown Prince for the time being. As you said, after the King of Qi dies, His Majesty will hold Jingzhao Prefecture accountable.

The Song guy has been displeased with me for a long time and will push me out to take the blame. You don't have to worry, I am not completely without means.

The Song guy has been trying to get rid of me for a long time, so let me send him off first. Just pretend you know nothing, this is a personal grudge between me and the Song guy.

Then, you'd better find a way to get His Majesty to allow you to go to Yunjiang. Bai Yiyang wrote to me and told me about Xiaobai's situation.

She needs you very much now. If you go to accompany her, it will not only stabilize the morale of the army, but also make His Majesty cautious and give support to the Bai family army.

At the very least, there will be no shortage of food and supplies. Even if we lose the war, with you here, His Majesty won't be in trouble for the Bai family."

Yuwen Ji was startled, his mind working rapidly, and he asked tentatively, "What happened to the child? Is he injured or sick?"

Su Beichen smiled and shook his head. He said a lot, but Yuwen Ji only picked out the ones related to Bai Yimeng and didn't hear anything else.

Patting Yuwen Ji's chest, he said, "Congratulations on becoming a father again. It's been less than three months now. During the war with Lu and Chen, I got pregnant and now I'm being nursed in Prince Su's mansion.

I'm not saying you two are too unreliable. When you fight, you have a baby.

It's a serious matter. I suggest that you don't use this reason to ask for permission. On the one hand, this child may be able to save the Bai family at a critical moment. On the other hand, I'm worried that Xiao Bai will scratch your face into a mess."

“I don’t understand a word you said.

This prince has been sick from missing his wife, now that the situation is stable, can't I go see my wife?"

"I wish you good luck, and I hope His Majesty won't hit you." Su Beichen glanced at Yuwen Ji secretly, but secretly felt that this reason was barely reliable and in line with his personality.

Yuwen Ji gave Su Beichen a flying kick, "Okay, we've been chatting for so long, it's time for us to get out."

He took the scroll, picked up the suspect, and walked towards the door, "You are such a chatterbox, you should stay in there by yourself."

He had been to this secret passage in his previous life, so he naturally knew how to get out. He just wanted to have a conversation with Su Beichen.
