After the evil concubine was reborn, she only wanted to abuse the scumbag

Did they hear it right?

The emperor actually let the second emperor, the third prince and the fifth prince go together?
what does it mean?

Could it be to tell them that the candidate for the crown prince will be chosen from among these three?
The members of the Liu party secretly looked at Liu Xiang, waiting for his instructions.

Officials belonging to Chu Jinyan's party didn't dare to be blatant, so they quietly looked at him eagerly, "His Royal Highness, come on, if you don't fight at this time, when will you fight?"

Just as everyone was stunned, Emperor Chengde said again: "Second, third, fifth, listen to me. This time, when you go to Changcheng, you are just going to listen, watch and learn, and you are not going to interfere with anything. , So, if someone wants to put the credit on you in the future, I will deny it at all, do you understand?"

Hearing the words, the three of them came out together and clapped their hands in response: "Your servant obeys the order."

Liu Xiang looked at Emperor Chengde thoughtfully, and sneered in his heart.

Is the emperor playing a game of trade-offs?

If the third prince really stood in the same camp as the eighth prince, then even if the eighth prince didn't go and the third prince was there, who could say that the final benefit would not fall on the eighth prince.

Sending the three princes to go together can also restrain each other.

Oh, that's all!

Anyway, the three of them cannot receive any military merits, and the influence is not very great.

Not only was Shen Xiong defeated, but he was also seriously injured, and the subsequent command power fell into the hands of Marquis Yong Yi.

It doesn't matter if the second prince has no credit.

Yong Yihou is the second prince's Yue family, with him, the second prince will be able to establish prestige in the army first.

With the support of the border guards, he is one step closer to the throne.

As for the third prince and the fifth prince, even if they can't make a move, they will never be able to make a deal in Yongyihou's territory when they arrive in Changcheng.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiang and the second prince looked at each other, their dark eyes filled with ambition.

By the time they retreated, it was already dark outside.

Chu Qingyun walked beside the fifth prince, Chu Shi'an, and asked, "Fifth brother, are you returning home, or are you planning to go to Ji's house?"

Chu Shi'an glanced at Chu Qingyun and said, "Where is Brother Sanhuang going?"

Chu Qingyun put his hands behind his back and said casually: "Of course I'm back home. I don't know when I will return to Beijing. I have to appease my beloved concubine. After all, Chu Pan'er is not my mother's concubine." Daughter, it doesn't matter if I go or not."

The implication is that even if the two of you were not born by the same mother, but the concubine is your adoptive mother, and her own daughter is married, if you, an elder brother, don't go to the wedding wine, it will be cold to the concubine's heart.

Hearing Chu Qingyun's malicious words, Chu Shi'an's expression froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Sanhuang is also Pan'er's real brother, you are not worried about offending mother and concubine, so how can I have concerns, let alone the border war Urgent, these are trivial matters in the face of national enmity."

"Hehe." Chu Qingyun sneered: "The virtuous concubine didn't give birth to me and didn't raise me, and I don't rely on her. Whether she is angry or not doesn't have any influence on me, but you..."

He patted Chu Shi'an on the shoulder, gave him a look that you understand, then strode away with his arms swung.

Chu Shi'an was left watching his back and gritted his teeth secretly.

This guy came here on purpose to make things difficult for him.

The emperor's father had ordered them to prepare to leave immediately. Song Yan and Wu Wei decided to select capable soldiers overnight, and they would definitely set off at noon tomorrow at the latest. Going to the Ji Mansion, being found out by the royal father will definitely make the royal father feel dissatisfied that he disregards the country's affairs.

But if he doesn't go to Ji's Mansion, none of Chu Pan'er's good wedding princes will attend, even if he knows the reason, I'm afraid there will be a little lump in his heart.

Chu Shi'an frowned fiercely, and finally returned to his mansion.

The mother and concubine had complaints, and the dissatisfaction was not as severe as that of the father.

After a while, she will naturally figure it out.

the next day.

At the main entrance of the palace, three princes in armor sat on brown steeds, behind them were two thousand carefully selected soldiers.

Under the sun, everyone's armor reflected a cold glow.

The wind whistled, and the flags fluttered with unstoppable power.

With the sound of the horn, the soldiers held the swords and guns in their hands and let out clangs. With the neighing of the horses, everyone walked slowly towards the gate of the city.

The people lined up on both sides to watch them leave.

This battle is not only related to the life and death of the people in Changcheng, but also to their survival.

At this time, on the outskirts of the capital city, a horse-drawn carriage galloped down the path, splashing dust, and the sky was high and far away, so clear and clear that it seemed to be able to cleanse people's hearts.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of a pavilion, the curtain was lifted, and Lu Xiang jumped out of the carriage with her skirt in her hands.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Chu Jinyan sitting in the pavilion.

He was wearing a long robe embroidered with dark totems, with black-colored rounded edges, long black hair spread out behind his back like a black river, and his eyes were as clear and cold as melted water from snow-capped mountains. Just sitting casually like that, he had a kind of The feeling of Yuanting and Yuezhi is so graceful and handsome that it is suffocating.

Lu Xiang stepped into the pavilion: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Chu Jinyan looked at her, and his sharp black eyes instantly turned into tenderness: "As early as when the Western Jin Dynasty attacked Qixia Pass, the thousand dark guards I trained in private had already set off from Yangning City, counting the time. I arrived three days earlier than Marquis Yongyi, but there was something wrong with food and weapons, so I had to go to Yangning City in person, but I didn’t expect that when Shen Xiong was defeated, Marquis Yongyi would definitely take over the power when he arrived in Changcheng. Don't let the princes have any military merits, but with Marquis Yongyi around, Chu Chengli can win people's hearts more easily, I can't give him this chance, I will take this opportunity to meet General Shen for a while."

When Lu Xiang heard this, she looked at him worriedly:
"Is Your Highness sure?"

Chu Jinyan smiled lightly, looking at Lu Xiang, his eyes seemed to be full of sunlight: "I dare not say that I am % sure, but I will not act blindly. After this battle is over, I will ask my father to marry you." You are a concubine, and with this belief, I can't lose."

Why don't you marry Lu Xiang after becoming the prince.

He couldn't wait any longer.

Lu Xiang was stunned, suddenly a little dumbfounded.

The sorrow of parting disappeared in an instant.

Immediately, she didn't know what to think of, and looked at Chu Jinyan with a very serious expression, Wan'er smiled and said: "Okay, then your Highness must take care, I will wait for you in the capital."

After Chu Jinyan heard this, his eyes lit up immediately: "With your words, I will crawl back."

Lu Xiang: "Don't crawl back."

She stared and gritted her teeth.

However, there was an indelible worry in the dark eyes.

Chu Jinyan chuckled lightly, with soft eyes: "Okay, I will come back to marry you with all my heart, and I'm leaving."

Lu Xiang nodded: "Yes."

Chu Jinyan stared at Lu Xiang, suddenly lowered his head, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and left quickly: "Wait for me."

After all, turn around and leave.
