More than 20 "thieves" were captured from the villa of Princess Hedong. After investigation, it was found that all of these people were black households without household registration.

Xiao Wu followed the whole process and was familiar with the investigation process of the Jingzhao Mansion.Sometimes Jing Zhaoyin "forgot" the steps, he can still remind him.

Three days later, officials from the Jingzhao Mansion approached the Hedong Prince's Mansion.

As a result, Princess Hedong insisted that she didn't know any of these people, and she didn't know why they were in her other industry.

……

"king……"

"Snapped!"

"I know I'm wrong, please forgive me." Princess Bai of Hedong immediately knelt down and kowtowed for mercy.

"Trash!" Zuoqiu Hong's anger remained undiminished, "You can't hide anyone well, so what else can you do?"

"It's the concubine's negligence, it's the concubine's fault, I hope the prince will not be angry."

"Not angry? 22 first-class killers, once lost, you tell me not to be angry?"

"boom!"

There was the sound of objects falling to the ground in the room, but the maids and servants outside Hou had long been accustomed to it.

Only Bai's personal maid who came over as a dowry was worried about her safety.But worrying is worrying, but she can't do anything.

She followed Bai's marriage for more than ten years, and the scenes inside have been staged countless times.Her master was the famous Princess of Hedong in front of her husband, but she lived a more cautious life than ordinary women in the queen.Who can know the bitterness in it.

"The reason why I married you was because you were the prime minister's daughter, and I thought marrying you would benefit me." Zuoqiu Hong's angry expression was filled with distaste, "But what happened? Your father is so cunning and cunning." , are harder to catch than loaches in mud pits."

"Father...Father, he still supports the prince!" As soon as Bai Shi heard Zuo Qiuhong mentioning this, she couldn't help being afraid, afraid that he would think she was completely useless and divorce her with a divorce letter.

"Support is not something you just talk about."

"My lord, my uncle and my grandfather have always supported you loyally!"

It's okay not to mention this, Zuoqiu Hong's anger rose another three points after hearing this.

Bai's uncle is Xu Ying, Duke Protector.Originally held some military power in his hands, but in August of this year, he was stripped of his real position by the empress because of greed for military supplies in ink, and was kicked out of the court.

On the surface, he is still Duke Protector, but in reality he is just an empty shell.Except for Xu Ying, none of the juniors in the Duke Huguo's mansion is useful, and there is no one to help him up if he wants to!

Duke Protector Xu Ying was a gift that Zuo Qiuyao sent to Zuo Qiuyue as a token of sincerity, and was exchanged for the red thread from him.

Xu Ying's downfall happened to be mixed with the turmoil that swept half the court a few months ago. Anyone who saw it was affected by the battle between the Hedong Palace and the Huainan Palace.

In that turmoil, Zuo Qiuhong lost Duke Huguo and the Ministry of Officials, and Changsun Jingxu lost the Ministry of Household Affairs.Because of this matter, Zuoqiu Hong was so angry that he overturned a room of precious ornaments in the Prince's Mansion of Hedong Road.

"If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to a son for this king, do you think you can still sit on the seat of Princess Hedong?"

Seeing this dejected face, Zuo Qiuhong was upset, kicked away Bai's hand that was holding onto the hem of his clothes, shook his sleeves and left.

.........

In Henan Palace, Xiao Wu reported the progress of the matter to Zuo Qiuyue.

Zuoqiu Yue had already expected the attitude of the Hedong Palace.

They have no other way to deal with it than to deny it.

"Prince Huainan has already returned to Beijing." He said without a word, "You don't need to follow this matter, just leave it to Jingzhao Mansion."

"Yes." Xiao Wu replied, and withdrew.

"Jing Zhaoyin belongs to the eldest grandson Jingxu?" Fourteen stopped writing and asked Zuo Qiuyue.

"Ma'am is very clever."

"Leverage strength to fight strength." Fourteen said, "Will Changsun Jingxu follow your plan?"

Nor is he a fool.

"That depends on whether he dislikes King Hedong even more, or dislikes me even more."

Fourteen didn't know about the turmoil in Shendu in August and September, but thought about it: "That should be Zuoqiu Hong, after all, the two of them have been competitors for so many years."

Zuo Qiuyue smiled and said nothing.

Fourteen said again: "But this matter is obviously planned by you. If they can't get angry, it is not impossible to form an alliance to deal with you temporarily."

"Anyway, be careful, don't capsize the boat in the gutter."

"I would like to follow Madam's instruction." Zuoqiu Yue raised his hand seriously, and bowed to Shisi.Then, instead of continuing this topic, I leaned over to look at what Shishi wrote on the paper: "What are you writing?"

"The training plan for the soldiers and horses in Henan Province." Fourteen let him look at it, and explained beside him, "I already have a rough plan in my mind, and I just want to find time to write them out during this period of time. Wait After we go back, we will refine them one by one according to the actual situation.”

"The West Camp is still led by Xie Sheng, the Central Camp is handed over to Xiao Ruming, you plan to give the North Camp to Lan Ze, and the East Camp..." Zuo Qiuyue didn't see the mark next to the East Camp, and briefly Thinking about it, he guessed Fourteen's plan.

"Are you going to use Zhong Yanqing?" He asked.

"During the days we lived in Huazhou, I learned about the situation of the Five Great Battalions from Mr. Meng, and I paid special attention to Zhong Yanqing."

"Is it a usable talent?"

Fourteen nodded slowly.

"But he……"

"I know what you are going to say, Zhong Yanqing is not my confidant, you are afraid that he will have a second heart." Fourteen snatched away Zuo Qiuyue's words.

Zuo Qiuyue nodded.

But Shishi said: "He is not my confidant, this is why I use him besides his own talent."

"Why?"

"I asked myself whether I want generals or cronies." Fourteen said, "The answer is the former."

"As long as Zhong Yanqing is a good general who can run an army and fight a war, that's the talent I need."

"And he is not my confidant, so he will have his own ideas, and he will not take my ideas as his ideas like Tong Yangqixian and others."

Before Fourteen finished speaking, Zuo Qiuyue understood.

"If all my subordinates are people who only obey my orders, then once I make a wrong decision in the future, it may cause irreparable harm to more than soldiers. By being there, he can remind me and reduce the possibility of making a wrong decision."

"But the three armies should obey the general, so that we can have a unified action." Zuo Qiuyue said, "Only a uniform army can be stronger. If Zhong Yanqing disagrees with you, there will be changes in the future, which will not only endanger you , endangering the military as well.”

"I know what you mean by 'accident'." Fourteen said calmly, "But from my observation, Zhong Yanqing is just a simple general. His ideal should be the same as Xiao Ruming, who can get the opportunity to show his ambition . I'm willing to give him the chance."

"Xie Sheng and Zhong Yanqing are no different with me. If I can use Xie Sheng, I can naturally use Zhong Yanqing."

"Besides, there are risks in doing anything. There is no foolproof plan. What I can do is to avoid risks as much as possible and turn dangers into opportunities."

"I believe you." Zuo Qiuyue was persuaded, and stopped discussing Zhong Yanqing too much.

"What about Qi Xian?" He suddenly remembered again, "You transferred him back, I thought you were going to put him in the same position as Tong Yang."

"Look here." Fourteen pointed to a spot on the paper for him to see.

"Prince, princess."

"what happened?"

Hearing Fourteen's voice, Yinzhu walked in and reported: "Princess, the Princess Palace has handed over a message, inviting the prince to participate in the Cuju competition."
