Hearing Zhao Nianze's words, Su Zhirou was really moved, "But this amount of money is not a small amount."

"I can keep you safe, even if I spend all my wealth, it's worth it." Zhao Nianze said softly.

Su Zhirou was obviously deeply moved when she heard this. When the two looked at each other, everyone around them could feel the waves of love flowing in them.

Jiang Nianjiao was not blind, so she naturally saw it.

She thought hard that she really hadn't killed her hard enough today! Otherwise, this couple should not be able to spread dog food in front of themselves now.

Therefore, when the two of them were completely forgetful, Jiang Nianjiao suddenly said in a rough voice, "Cousin, can you please return my maid Lianying to me now?"

Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Su Zhirou seemed to remember that there were outsiders present, so she hurriedly stopped her hand, while Zhao Nianze looked at Jiang Nianjiao with some dissatisfaction.

In the end, he just said to the attendant beside him, "Take her to Qinghao Courtyard."

After receiving the order, the attendant naturally invited Jiang Nianjiao away.

Jiang Nianjiao didn't really want to mess up their relationship. After succeeding once, she naturally gave up when she got the chance.

But when Jiang Nianjiao arrived at Qinghaoyuan and saw Lianying tied to the pillar, looking at her pitifully, Jiang Nianjiao suddenly had the urge to destroy the relationship between the two. Speaking of which, both he and Lianying did this to help his wife.

This kid didn't even have the words to express gratitude, but now he's still tying up his savior.

But when she thought about the money she had defrauded from Zhao Nianze, she reluctantly stopped.

"Woo, miss, you are finally here. I almost thought I would never see you again. You don't even know how scary they are." Lingying cried a lot after removing the rope from her body.

Naturally, Jiang Nianjiao only comforted Lianying first. After the frightened Lianying recovered from her panic, Jiang Nianjiao took her home.

Thousands of miles away in Yunzhou, in General Chen's camp, a handsome young man wearing a white fox fur cloak was reading the reply he had just received from Qiu Wan with a pen under the candle.

After briefly seeing Qiu Wan talk about his recent situation, he turned another page and made sure that there was no reply from Jiang Nianjiao. It was impossible not to be disappointed.

But since it was a decision I had made long ago, it wasn't too late to disconnect now.

As long as he thinks of that dream and the mysteries surrounding her, Zhao Yanzhen has a strong feeling of delaying each other.

As expected, Qiu Wan's letter also asked Zhao Yanzhen at the final stage how he planned to deal with Jiang Nianjiao's problem and how to deal with Jiang Nianjiao.

Zhao Yanzhen only wrote one sentence: "Don't worry about her, I have my own arrangements."

After he burned Qiu Wan's letter and was about to write a reply, the sounds of soldiers talking to others could be heard outside the felt curtain.

Finally, the man kowtowed to the outside of the curtain and said, "Your Highness, I have a report from Beijing."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yanzhen knew that it was the news sent to Beijing by spies from Beijing.

After all, he dared to invite himself to the remote place of Yunzhou at this juncture. In addition to openly avoiding suspicion and secretly recruiting troops, he also had the intention of retreating in order to advance.

Before he left, he had already made a series of arrangements.

And these spies were his ears for information.

Therefore, Zhao Yanzhen just stopped the pen in his hand.

Then he said calmly, "Let him come in."

After receiving Zhao Yanzhen's permission, a black-clothed secret guard soon walked in.

When he came to Zhao Yanzhen, the man knelt down on one knee and then presented only a letter to Zhao Yanzhen.

Zhao Yanzhen only took a cursory look at the contents of the letter and knew which one they were talking about.

It was originally he who entrusted his ninth brother to handle this matter. The person being used was none other than the daughter of the Xu family, now the Princess of Liang.

The Princess of Liang originally had a beloved, but unfortunately her beloved turned out to be a traitor. She herself was forced to marry Prince Liang for political needs.

The King of Liang also belonged to someone. For the sake of the safety of the person he belonged to, his good brother even ignored his concubine's face on the wedding night to look for his beloved.

These two people are already in the same bed and have different dreams, so it is naturally very easy to establish a relationship between them.

Shan, as long as the truth that has been deliberately concealed is revealed, this is enough for the two of them to separate.

Although Xu Zhilan does not have much political energy, her father and brother do. The father and son have the actual control over the imperial guards for the left and right generals. In addition to the actual power of the Jinwu Guard controlled by his imperial brother, it can be said that half of the capital's guard force is in his hands.

And he seemed to have unlimited glory, and the person he was about to marry was the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Jiang, the head of the civil service.

But any political means is actually in vain in the face of absolute force. .

As long as he remains in the capital, no matter how many officials he draws in or how many practical things he does, as long as he makes a mistake, he will be beaten back to his original form. The Yushitai supported by his father is not a freeloader.

So he temporarily jumped out of the circle of the capital and stayed in Yunzhou to control everything in the capital.

And what he wants to do now is to drive a wedge between Prince Liang's Mansion and the Xu family.

Although the father and son of the Xu family are also passionate about power and want to be in a good team, compared with these, their biggest weakness is probably the daughter Xu Zhilan.

After all, although they are in a political marriage, there are probably no fathers or brothers who don't want their daughters to have a good home.

And with his eldest brother's temperament, he probably wouldn't even bother to pretend in front of Xu Zhilan.

On the day of the wedding, the Xu family brother blocked the wine for his brother-in-law.

But he was probably still unhappy. Therefore, all he has to do is add fuel to the fire.

After all, his eldest brother is a typical person who loves beauty more than country.

With such a temper, if he hadn't had the support of his good father, let alone himself now, I'm afraid even his uncle who was used to showing off would have been able to eradicate him long ago.

Of course, if it hadn't been for his good father's intervention, he would never have thought about competing for the throne with his brother from the beginning.

But whether it was his uncle's family or his own father, since they wanted to be on this chessboard and become a pawn, how could he let them down.

Not only must he become a chess piece, he must also become a chess player from a chess piece. After all, isn't that the point of his birth?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yanzhen's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness.

He originally thought that with his knowledge of the events of his previous life and his sufficient understanding of these people, everything would go as he planned.

Therefore, he only took a cursory look at the process and then went to see the results.

However, the next result was beyond his expectation.

Originally, he thought that according to his plan, the Liang Prince's Mansion and the Xu family would fall apart because of Xu Zhilan's death, and there would be no room for turning back.

But someone he didn't expect entered the situation at this time.

And that person was the fiancée whom he wanted to marry as his concubine.

"Jiang Nianjiao." Zhao Yanzhen said the name softly, and his peach blossom eyes showed a moment of indifference in the dim and uncertain candlelight.

The poisonous poison Xu Zhilan used to frame Su Zhirou was the work of her ninth brother Zhao Lang.

Zhao Lang's mother was the daughter of the head of the Voodoo tribe. The wizards in the Voodoo tribe were all good at poisonous poison, and his mother was the most outstanding among them.

If not for this, it would have been impossible for his mother to poison more than a dozen concubines in the harem, and yet the entire imperial medical bureau was helpless.

Although Zhao Lang was not able to get the instruction from his mother, after all, after he became wise, his mother went crazy and often used him to test poisonous poison.

However, most of her mother's poisonous poison skills were hidden in the cold palace.

Back then, in order to help the child grow up as a sword in her hand, her mother only kept the poisonous poison books secretly and kept the child by her side.

Therefore, Zhao Lang's poisonous poison technique cannot be cracked by ordinary Yong people.

Even though Su Zhirou has extensive research on poisons, she may not be able to see through all poisonous poisons.

And this was indeed the case. Su Zhirou was even gambling with her own life on whether she could save Xu Zhilan.

If Jiang Nianjiao hadn't interfered, Su Zhirou would probably have died this time.

It's just that Zhao Yanzhen couldn't understand why Jiang Nianjiao was able to ignore Zhao Lang's poisonous poison skills and remove Xu Zhilan from her body.

The line between life and death is drawn back.

This kind of existence is simply not like the existence of an ordinary person. Thinking about what he saw in his dream, and then recalling the drunken words she said when he completely paid attention to her, Zhao Nianze vaguely felt that in addition to rebirth, Jiang Nianjiao might have something to do with Jiang Nianjiao. There was something else attached to her that was beyond this era.

They achieve each other but also restrict each other.

And ever since he noticed her, Jiang Nianjiao's attitude towards Zhao Nianze and Su Zhirou has been very strange.

Although she has lost her previous infatuation with Zhao Nianze because of what she experienced before her rebirth, this is indeed a normal thing.

After all, if you don't hit the wall, you won't look back, but since she hit her head so hard that it bled, it would be inconsistent with human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages if she doesn't look back.

However, ordinary people who have hit the south wall and may come back again will definitely choose to have no contact with the south wall forever, and those who are determined to retaliate will even retaliate in kind.

But judging from his observations of Jiang Nianjiao during this period, although she didn't have much contact with her cousin, every time her cousin and Su Zhirou were in danger, she would appear immediately and promptly. That existence is simply like a pioneer who always saves people in dangers of water and fire.

But he didn't think Jiang Nianjiao would be such a selfless person. Even as he came into contact with Jiang Nianjiao, he could feel that Jiang Nianjiao was actually a bit vindictive. If not, he wouldn't have felt that they could be so close to each other.

But now when he recalled the way she protected Zhao Nianze and Su Zhirou, he actually thought of his aloof father.

They are so similar. One keeps saying that he is the child who wins his heart the most, and gives him a favor that is enough to make outsiders envious.

But in the end, he turned out to be just a chess piece, a pawn who never thought of his way out from the beginning to the end.
