Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

At the same time, the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Xie Shang and Jiang Jinyan rode at full speed to the border between Great Zhou and the Southern Kingdom. Without wasting a moment, they asked City Lord Yuan to take them directly to the military camp.

Xie Shang stared at the sand table where he was commanding the battle. "If the vassal states want to enter the Great Zhou, the most time-saving and labor-saving way is to go through the shortcut of the Southern Kingdom. It is urgent to guard the border of the Southern Dynasty. I am more worried that the current civil unrest in the Southern Kingdom will affect the Great Zhou Dynasty."

City Lord Yuan said: "There is no evidence to prove that the vassal state commanded the pirates to harass the Southern Kingdom. The news I received is that there may have been disagreements in the Southern Kingdom's government because the Southern King is old and the Southern King's preferred successor is the Sixth Prince.

But the fight between the eldest prince and the fourth prince is also very exciting, and now there are pirates attacking wantonly. It is difficult for us to control the internal affairs of the Southern Kingdom. If there is support from the vassal state behind this incident, it will be even more complicated. "

City Lord Yuan wanted to guard the country's borders, so he naturally had spies planted inside the Southern Kingdom a long time ago. That's why he was able to find out the actual situation in the Southern Kingdom and ask Shengjing for help several months ago.

City Lord Yuan did not expect that the emperor would come in person.

Jiang Jinyan said, "The trade between the Great Zhou and the Southern Kingdom has always been very close. The two countries have been trading with each other for a hundred years. If we want to enter the Southern Kingdom, it will be easy. We can just disguise ourselves as merchants."

Xie Shang thought: In fact, even if the Southern Kingdom did not ask for help from the Great Zhou, the Great Zhou would definitely help the Southern Kingdom to drive out the pirates. Once the Southern Dynasty was occupied by pirates, the Great Zhou would definitely be the country most affected. This is also the reason why the Great Zhou and the Southern Kingdom have always been on good terms.

During the reign of Emperor Shengzu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was possible to recover the Southern Kingdom and make it part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, the leader of the Southern Kingdom was just a tribal chief. Considering that the Great Zhou Emperor was out of reach, he signed a friendly alliance with the Southern Kingdom and became allies. The relationship has continued to this day.

The war in the northern border prevented the Great Zhou from starting another war in a short period of time.

Xie Shang's eyes were cold and he said in a deep voice, "City Lord Yuan, Lin Feng, take your people to contact the officials of the Southern Kingdom. Jin Yan and I will disguise ourselves as merchants and enter the Southern Kingdom."

Jiang Jinyan had already arranged for people to enter the South Country in advance. The interior of the South Country was in great chaos, and he had guessed where Lin Yu would take Jiang Fenghua. He just hoped that they would protect themselves and wait for them to find them.

On this side, Meng Yao arrived at the Prince Yun's Mansion and was stunned by the tragic scene. The Prince Yun's Mansion became a ruin overnight, and the Princess Yun was killed. When Prince Yun came back and saw this scene, he became sick with anger. He vowed to catch Yang Guaizi and others.

After leaving the palace, he gathered officers and soldiers to search for the bandits everywhere.

The robbers stole the exhibits in the jade shop and quickly left. People on the streets were still in panic, but the robbers seemed to have disappeared, and there was no news of the robbers passing through customs.

It seemed like a simple robbery, but in fact, it was hiding a conspiracy that he was unaware of. He had a suspicion in his mind, but he had no evidence to prove it.

Meng Yao was also confused at this time.

Jiang Fenghua and Lin Yu also returned to Prince Yun's Mansion with Shen Bingxuan. Shen Bingxuan was heartbroken and didn't understand who wanted to harm the Shen family.

Jiang Fenghua reminded him to check the guards and soldiers guarding outside the jade shop, but they disappeared in an instant.

Jiang Fenghua asked again, "It was clearly a premeditated burning, killing and looting. The Sixth Prince never suspected who wanted to harm you."

Shen Bingxuan's eyes were swollen from crying. "Yes, it's obvious that someone is deliberately targeting our Shen family. Who wants to wipe out the Shen family?"

Meng Yao expressed his doubts and explained, "In fact, I have been called Shen Yao outside the palace for so many years. Although I am my father's son, I prefer the free life outside. If it was done by my eldest brother and fourth brother, why did they do this? I have already made it clear to my eldest brother and fourth brother that I will not compete with them for the throne. What else do they have to worry about?"

Jiang Fenghua interrupted him and got straight to the point, "If you don't fight with others, others will fight with you. You think you have done nothing wrong, but the weaker you are, the easier it is for others to bully you. Your weakness is your fault.

Your birth does not allow you to not fight, because your existence is destined to be the biggest threat to others. The Yun Palace is the biggest backing for the Sixth Prince. Removing this shield is equivalent to clearing obstacles for many people. "

After hearing this, Meng Yao was stunned. It was wrong not to fight or compete, and it was also wrong to be weaker.

Jiang Fenghua didn't know why she said those words unconsciously. In fact, the affairs of the South Country had nothing to do with them. They could just take a look and then go back to a safe place.

The Southern Kingdom is in chaos, they can go back to the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Seeing the miserable plight of the Shen family, she suddenly felt a sense of empathy, as if she had also been severely bullied in the past because she was too weak and had no ability to fight back.

She said, "Giving in will not bring peace. Only by fighting and making yourself bigger and stronger can you get fairness."

Meng Yao thought to himself: If he became the King of the South, would he be able to protect his uncle's family? Even if he didn't like the life in the palace, he would force himself to like it, otherwise he would be like today without any ability to fight back.

Lin Yu said, "We are going back to our country."

Meng Yao said, "Are you leaving? I promised to take you..." He was too embarrassed to say the next words. The exhibition hall had been looted, and he had wanted to take them to Taobao, but now he had no home.

At this time, someone from the palace came over and said, "Sixth Prince..."

"Shunzi? Why are you dressed like this?" Shunzi was the eunuch of the Southern King. He appeared in front of Meng Yao in the attire of a palace maid. "Sixth Prince, hurry up. Something big has happened in the palace."

Meng Yao asked, "What happened? Explain it clearly!"

"Concubine Shen was killed in the palace, and the king suddenly became seriously ill. Now the eldest and fourth princes are in charge of the palace. It was not easy for me to escape and find the princes."

When Meng Yao heard that his mother was murdered, his eyes were red. "Father was still fine when I came out. How could he suddenly become seriously ill? How could mother be murdered?" He couldn't believe it. She was fine the moment before, but now he felt like the sky was falling.

Having said that, he was about to return to the palace.

Shunzi said, "You can't go back to the palace. Something has happened in the palace. If you go back, you will definitely be killed by the eldest prince and the fourth prince."

When Prince Yun heard about the change in the palace, he didn't care about being sad, "What happened?"

Shunzi repeated what he had overheard, "The eldest prince and the fourth prince are colluding to harm the king."

He took out a decree written by the Southern King and handed it to the Sixth Prince, "Prince, please take care of your life."

Meng Yao opened the imperial edict, "The imperial edict of succession."

"Yes, this was handed to me by the King himself. Prince, please leave!"

At this time, a group of bandits dressed as pirates approached the Yun Palace. Yang Guaizi appeared in front of everyone again. He said arrogantly: "I said don't let me escape, otherwise I will make you pay."
