Chuan Shuzhi became the regent's favorite concubine

Qiu Longci was surprised that the emperor would make such a request to him. He originally thought that the emperor did not like the prince, but it seems that his perception was wrong.

The prime minister rebelled and united the six countries. It must be possible for him to come forward in order to suppress it, and you want to hand over the credit to others?Qiu Longci thought that he was not so magnanimous, and naturally no one could take away what should be his.

But it shouldn't belong to him. Naturally, he won't get half of it, so the crown prince's succession must be a matter of course. Why use the rehabilitated turmoil to create momentum for the prince?Qiu Longci couldn't help but think about it.

Qiu Longqian watched Qiu Longci fall into deep thought, but did not make a sound immediately, coughed his throat and said: "Longci, I am ashamed of the prince, the prince has died since he was born, and I, the father, have never cared about him. , let him grow up under the prime minister's eyes, it's my fault."

"So I hope that the prime minister can make up for the prince, so that he can be recognized by the people of the world before he takes the throne, so that he can be worthy of the name of the emperor in the future."

Qiu Longci's eyes flickered. He naturally knew the prince's background, and also knew that the emperor had a deep relationship with the prince's biological mother. Because of the prince's birth, the queen died, so he didn't like the prince's affairs.

So for so many years, the prince has naturally never received the emperor's warmth from his father and son.

It is understandable to plan for the prince to seek his deep and far-reaching plans. Anyway, he is almost done as the regent, and the new king's ascension to the throne is when he resigns.

"My brother respectfully obeys the holy orders." Qiu Longci saluted solemnly, which was considered to have accepted the emperor's entrustment.

"Okay, okay!" Qiu Longgan said three good words excitedly. He was very satisfied with Qiu Longci's promise, but maybe he was too excited, and coughed one after another after he finished speaking.

"Brother Huang, take care of your health." Qiu Longci hurriedly handed Qiu Long a glass of water to dry, and managed to stop his cough.

After Qiu Longqian calmed down, he panted slightly, and said worriedly: "Xi Yuankui rebelled, and he will lead the soldiers to attack the city in the near future. There are not enough troops in the imperial city, and we need to transfer orders from the border. It must not be enough to resist during the period. Are you sure?" Have a plan?"

This naturally depends on how many troops Xi Yuankui has.

"We still need to see how the situation is going to be. It's not easy to make a decision." Qiu Longci said cautiously.

Qiu Longqian nodded, closed his eyes and leaned towards the bed, apparently exhausted, "I think it's true, the prime minister's rebellion was too sudden, you should go back first, and Xi Yuankui will be handled by you Now, if there is any need, you can make up your own mind, and there is no need to ask me again."

This is a disguised form of delegating power to Qiu Long.

"Yes, Brother Huang. The younger brother will take his leave first." Qiu Longci bowed to salute, and then raised his foot and was about to walk out.

But just as he stepped forward, Qiu Longqian said again, "Longci, wait a little longer."

"Huh?" Qiu Longci stopped, and looked puzzled at the emperor who was about to rest on the bed.

"If possible, bring the prince with you to solve the prime minister's matter." It was a very plain sentence, and even carried a hint of majesty that did not belong to the emperor itself. On the contrary, it was more like an ordinary father's care for his own son, and there was something The elder brother entrusts his younger brother.

This sentence completely eased Qiu Long's cold face, and reminded him of the emperor as his elder brother, who gave him the trust beyond the emperor and his ministers, gave him unlimited power, and never had any suspicion, so After all, helping the prince ascend the throne is what he should do.

Moreover, Qiu Longgan, who said this, sounded more like speaking from the perspective of a father and a brother, which was moving.

"Brother Huang, I understand." But with so many thoughts in his heart, Qiu Longci's expression did not change. After answering in a deep voice, he walked steadily and powerfully outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But those who are familiar with Qiu Longci know that such a simple sentence is Qiu Longci's promise. It is not an exaggeration to say that a word is worth a lot of money.

After a while, Qiu Longgan, who knew that Qiu Longci had left, slowly opened his eyes, and the warmth that did not belong to the emperor in his eyes had already faded away, as if he had just said to Qiu Longci. It's all illusions, but the bottom of the eyes is heavy, and the expression of turning his head to look in the direction where Qiu Longci left is also different from usual.

And Qiu Longci, who turned around and left the palace, came to the carriage outside the palace, and Beiying greeted him as soon as he got out of the palace.

"Go and find out where the Prime Minister is now, how many troops are rebelling, and how far is it from the imperial city." Qiu Longci ordered in a low voice.

"Yes, my lord." Bei Ying answered cleanly and was about to leave.

"Wait, after the investigation is over, I will send a letter to Pei's mansion. The king wants to see Pei Jinglin." Qiu Longci added another sentence as if he had thought of something.

After Bei Ying responded, her figure disappeared in front of the palace gate in an instant.

……

On the other side, Luo Qingzhu was already sitting in the teahouse in the imperial city, and Pei Qi'an and Luo Yan happened to be sitting in front of him.

"Fourth brother, the prime minister rebelled yesterday night, do you know? Didn't the prime minister send you a message first?" Luo Qingzhu looked anxious, and looked at the man who was sitting down after entering the private room in the teahouse. Luo Yan couldn't wait to ask.

Luo Yan's movement of pouring tea paused, Pei Qian'an didn't know whether it was because he slept late or what, he was yawning, and stopped his movements after hearing Luo Qingzhu's words, and he was so shocked that he almost never retracted his jaw before he could retract his chin. The chair fell off.

Simply Luo Yan paid attention to him, and protected him with one hand so that Pei Qi'an would not be so frightened by the news that he fell to the ground.

"Be careful, sit down." Luo Yan held Pei Qi'an steady, and said with a cold face.

Pei Qi'an couldn't care less about Luo Yan's overly intimate gesture, his eyes almost popped out, he stared at Luo Qingzhu intently, his voice was a little hoarse for some reason, "The prime minister rebelled? How is it possible? Qu Jiang Yan I just heard about it..."

Having said this, Pei Qi'an realized that the prime minister did not give a feast, and finally accepted the reality, swallowed his saliva, and asked in disbelief: "Really?"

Luo Qingzhu didn't care to explain too much, the prime minister's ambition and plan cannot be explained clearly in a few words, the most urgent thing at the moment is to find out the prime minister's plan.

"The confidants around the prince reported this morning, there will be no falsehood." After Luo Qingzhu finished speaking quickly, he looked at Luo Yan, but Luo Yan frowned, obviously not expecting the prime minister's sudden rebellion.

"It seems that the prime minister still has a back hand. The Luo country is not only the only vassal country he has had an affair with." Luo Yan lightly tapped the rim of the teacup with his fingers, his voice a little cold.

"Is the prime minister guarding against you, fourth brother? Otherwise, why didn't you inform you in advance about the rebellion? It seems that the original plan will not work, and we have to change our strategy." Luo Qingzhu can still do it in this autumn weather. Sweat broke out in a hurry, and the worry on his face was full.
