After refusing to marry the prince, the general regretted it too much

If one had to use one word to describe Duke Huai's current expression, it would be——

colorful.

He calmed down for a while, and then said to the prince who was sitting beside him with the same wonderful expression: "Your Highness, do you know what kind of situation the two armies are most afraid of when they are at war?"

Xie Heng shook his head honestly: "I would like to hear from my uncle."

He yelled one uncle at a time very smoothly, but it couldn't stop Duke Huai's heartbroken heart: "The most taboo is that there are spies in the army, and even more taboo... That spy is our general."

……

It was difficult for Xie Heng to answer when people went round and round to scold his nephew.

What can he say?

To help King Huai call the 'traitor' hateful, or to help Qin Ye continue to kill people?

It's all a family, it's not suitable.

In the end, it was still Qin Ye's calm interface: "There are great righteousness and small festivals in this world. For my Daqi people, it is natural to put the country first and then the family. Loyalty to the prince comes first, and love for the elders comes last."

It's a little unreasonable for you to turn your elbow outward.

Loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but it doesn't necessarily mean that you care too much about the emperor's affairs, but you are extremely enthusiastic when you are loyal to the prince.

Duke Huai closed his eyes, seeing Qin Ye's upright expression with a smile in his eyes, he heaved a sigh of relief.

He watched Qin Ye grow up, because Qin Hengye was too much of an asshole, he had to take care of the son of his beloved sister.

Seriously speaking, he didn't spend as much time with his sons as Qin Ye, and he knew a lot more about pampering.

But even for him, after Qin Ye joined the army, he never saw this kid so full of joy and resorted to all means to achieve his goal.

I really like it... just like it.

When Duke Huai opened his eyes again, the politeness on his body disappeared, and he became a little more natural. He looked at the prince and said, "Guo Xian was impeached at the court meeting a few days ago. Handwriting? In retaliation for King Duan's attempted assassination in southern Xinjiang?"

Xie Heng raised his eyebrows.

The impeachment against Guo Xian was written by Zhao Shuyao, the uncle of the country, but it was not very obvious.

Ao Yinhuai, who came forward, could not be regarded as a follower of the prince and the uncle of the country, but he was used to being cynical, and when he received these conclusive evidence, he couldn't bear it for a moment, so he participated in the performance.

Duke Huai could guess that it was the prince's handwriting, and he said it so bluntly, he must have been deceived by Qin Ye for most of his heart.

He nodded lightly: "Prince Duan has ulterior motives, and now he has forcibly restored his health with the power of medicine, and he can't sleep and eat alone, so I want to find something for him to do."

Duke Huai laughed, and said concisely: "I'm afraid that the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry."

It is a big taboo to speak lightly and profoundly, Xie Heng glanced at Qin Ye, and did not shy away from these things: "The Chu Court of the Supreme Hospital sentenced the report, Duan Wang's healthy body can last half a year at most, and if the situation is not good, it may only last three months." Yue, he is already in a poor alley, there is no need to rush or not to rush."

"I don't know what King Duan wants to do. Presumably, he is making trouble in Beijing with his weak and weak body. It's just because of the resentment in his heart because he accidentally fell off his horse back then. If so, King Duan is not one of them. It's important."

What Duke Huai really wanted to say was that Prince Duan wanted to cause trouble in the capital, and in the end he only wanted to mess with Emperor Hui's suspicious heart. What's the use of you just plotting against Prince Duan?

Of course, the person from the Tai Chi Hall must be included in order to be considered a pattern.

Xie Heng was silent for a long while, and finally said: "Uncle, I know that the meals sent to Zhiwei Hall by the Duke of Dingguo in the past few days contain a large dose of medicine that can induce the poison of falling shadows in Yu Zhi's body."

He paused, and said frankly, "It's the handwriting of Tai Chi Hall."

The prince has always been gentle and indifferent, but when he said these two sentences, his tone was a bit solemn.

It was a concern that couldn't be pretended, as if the treasures that I cherished most were abandoned like trash, no matter how good the self-cultivation was, I couldn't help but get really angry.

Duke Huai's eyebrows twitched, and he felt the same way as the prince.

He clenched his palms tightly, his face darkened, and said, "How could this be? Now that Ye'er has returned to Tangjing, even if His Majesty is afraid, why did he strike at this time?"

Xie Heng said in his heart, the emperor didn't strike at this time, but he did it before, and now he just sped up the process.

Qin Ye didn't stay in the mansion honestly after returning to Beijing for the first time. Instead, the turmoil continued to be very high-profile. This is already the most likely reason why Emperor Hui took action against him.

"No matter what it is for," the prince said solemnly, "now that this matter is urgent, since my uncle mentioned it, Gu also has the audacity to ask for it. If there is such a day, I hope my uncle will help me."

Duke Huai was silent for a long while, then suddenly said: "If I didn't take the initiative to mention that Prince Duan is not the most important thing today, will Your Highness also speak out with me?"

He figured it out, the prince wanted to do something to the emperor from the very beginning!

As he thought before, what does King Dongduan mean?

But whether the prince will tell everything frankly is another matter.

"Cough..." At this moment, Qin Ye, who had been sitting on the sidelines watching his heart, coughed softly, and said a little weakly, "Uncle, it's the first time you and His Highness have met in private. Is there anyone who has taken his heart out so quickly?"

Looking at Duke Huai's expression of looking at the traitor, Qin Ye rubbed his nose in embarrassment, looked at the roof and said: "This frank job was originally mine, and I plan to find a free time to find you someday Love is coming..."

Who would have guessed how fierce you are!

As soon as they met, they had to discuss how to build the Tai Chi Hall... Not to mention the prince, Qin Ye himself felt overwhelmed!

Qin Ye and Duke Huai were used to being casual in private, and this would really make him look down on Duke Huai, relying on the prince's politeness and blind acquaintance, he hastily revealed the plan that the two had discussed before.

Duke Huai's eyes were dazed when he heard this, and he even forgot the empathy he felt with the prince just now.

"So..." His eyes were dark, "You have discussed everything with His Highness? Then what are you doing here? You really want to get involved. It is impossible for Huai Palace to stay out of it."

Qin Ye looked up at the pattern on the roof, feeling a little embarrassed, and felt that he had no reason to be wrong, so he mumbled twice, "Isn't that what you said you wanted to see your nephew and son-in-law? I am also..."

He finally moved his gaze down, and smiled obediently at Duke Huai: "Listen to uncle."

-

Three hundred miles away from Tangjing city.

Ning Xun tried his best to chop off the dagger that was thrown from a distance, and his body could no longer support it. He half knelt on the ground with the sword in one hand, and spit out a mouthful of bright red blood.

Seeing this, Yingfeng, who followed him all the way, rushed up and helped his young master.

Ning Xun took a couple of breaths and barely managed to even out his inner breath, so he had time to look around.

It was blood red all around.

There were not many people accompanying him to inspect the Yanzheng, and he went back to Beijing with light clothes, and he only brought less than [-] people with him.

But just after leaving the border of Dai County, when he arrived at a remote and dangerous place, he saw someone in black wearing a mask approaching menacingly, apparently aimed at him.

Although the people around Ning Xun are not martial arts masters, they are not mediocre either. Unexpectedly, when the two meet face to face, half of the people around him have fallen down.

This is a group of masters, or a well-raised dead man.

It's a pity that he met the elite of the army secretly sent to him by Gu Mingxuan, and even a few confidantes of the Gu family for many years.

The group of people who secretly guarded him finally arrived too late, and they were still warm.

Ning Xun dared not think, if he hadn't noticed it beforehand, if he hadn't written that letter to King Jin, would he have already confessed here?

There was still a sword in front of him, but he could no longer get close to him. Ning Xun spat out two more mouthfuls of blood, and managed to hold himself up, trying to find a safer place to adjust his breath.

He moved his lips, and his voice was extremely low, confusing Yingfeng, the long follower beside him: "My lord, what did you say?"

"I said..." Ning Xun staggered away from the center of the battlefield with his support, his voice was trembling, and he gritted his teeth, "The last time His Highness was assassinated was not such a big battle..."

"I'm so unlucky."

Yingfeng felt a bit of regret and resentment from that sentence, and didn't dare to answer the words. He helped his young master to sit on a stone, and hurriedly wanted to bandage the wound.

Ning Xun didn't care whether he answered or not, watching the battle in the field, he felt the pain in his body almost went deep into the bone marrow, and felt that it was about to disappear, but he didn't dare to faint anyway, he could only think about things in order to stay awake.

"How can someone assassinate me with such a big hand? What do I have to assassinate? Is it too busy to burn money and play with my life?"

"Last time Tang Jing wrote back and mentioned that the person behind the scenes might be Prince Duan, but why is he?"

"Kill me...Only King Jin and father would care. Could it be that King Duan is recovering from illness in Beijing, and wants to fight A Ke to death for some excitement?"

"How can Duan Wang's small body stand up to it? If it's not that I want to fight, I just want to hold my life on someone else's head, and use the power of the Jin Palace to achieve my goal..."

"Prince?"

As he muttered to himself, his expression was even a bit stern, and Ying Feng who was beside him almost didn't think that his young master was too frightened and already lost his mind, so he stood beside him tremblingly.

Ning Xun, however, thought everything through in the blink of an eye.

King Duan sent someone to kill him, and then pinned the matter on the crown prince. King Jin is bound to fight back, and Tangjing will be in chaos in an instant!

It doesn't matter even if King Jin is still a little sober or someone stops him, King Duan can send someone to assassinate him, why can't he send someone to assassinate the prince?

Regardless of the success or failure of the assassination, as long as the assassin 'misses' some clues, and the entire court knows that the crown prince and king Jin are at odds, Xie Ke can easily be accused of assassinating the crown prince.

The water in Tangjing City became muddy in an instant.

So... he has been protecting King Jin from disaster from beginning to end?

It can't be said that it is in the block, but because King Jin has suffered, he must not run away.

Ning Xun thought about it with a somewhat unfriendly expression, but saw that the elite of Gu Mingxuan's subordinates had gradually taken control of the battle situation, and as several black-clothed corpses fell down, the remaining people were desperate to fight.

After a while, the sounds of fighting around finally stopped, and the group of elite leaders finally took a break, walked towards Ning Xun, and said in a flat voice: "I will follow the order of the Lord to protect you. Young Master, now that the thieves have been eliminated, please come to Beijing with Young Master Ning."

Ning Xun shook his head.

"Entering Beijing at this time, the road is bound to be full of dangers..." He rolled his eyes from the pain of the wound, but still said in a firm voice, "Also, it may not be possible once and for all."

King Duan wanted to take his life against King Jin, how could he follow King Duan's wishes?

Even after returning to Beijing at this time, he will definitely receive extremely meticulous care, but he is unwilling to leave such a huge trouble to King Jin.

No way, the only thing to do is to follow the prince's wishes.

At least, the prince is gentle, and there is a bottom line in how he treats others.

He thought it would be troublesome to persuade the leader, but he nodded and said: "Your Highness has orders, and everything will be done according to the young master's orders."

Ning Xun was holding back his words, a little uncomfortable, but the leader didn't pay attention at all, he turned around to greet his subordinates, and went to clean up.

On the way away from the blood-stained land, Ning Xun became more and more angry as he thought about it, and suddenly pulled Yingfeng's sleeve beside him, gritted his teeth and said, "You go back and write an IOU for 100 million taels, take it back and sign it!"

Yingfeng was taken aback, thinking that his young master had been frightened and confused, he trembled after a long while and said, "Sir, who do you owe money? Could it be that His Royal Highness saved you... on a conditional basis?"

100 million taels, even if the Xuanping Hou Mansion is emptied, it may not be available.

It's also too expensive.

"It's someone else who owes me," Ning Xun hissed in pain again while speaking, "You write it and keep it, and you can take it back to Beijing to sign for King Jin, and say that I was here to avoid disaster for him. Labor money!"

Ying Feng: ...

The young master was really scared and confused, right?
