Outside the capital.
A carriage was facing the direction of the capital.
"Your Highness, why didn't you agree to lend troops to the crown prince?" Sitting in the carriage was a charming woman, Zhu Hongyan.
But at this moment, she didn't have the slightest bit of flattery, but was very respectful.
Because sitting opposite her was Li Yuanxian's younger brother, King Xian Li Yuanjing.
The weather has not turned cold yet, but Li Yuanjing is wearing a big cloak, and his face is slightly pale.
"Do you think the prince can succeed?" He coughed twice.
His health has never been very good, and he is even known as the sick prince.
But no one in Xianzhou would make fun of his body. The people of Xianzhou would only feel sorry for him because of overwork.
After all, he has indeed managed Xianzhou in an orderly manner over the years and is highly respected by the people of Xianzhou.
"Even if the prince fails to succeed, this is still an opportunity for His Highness." Zhu Hongyan said.
"Sometimes what looks like an opportunity may turn out to be a trap!" Li Yuanjing said quietly.
Zhu Hongyan raised her head and said, "Your Highness, do you think this is a trap?"
"My brother the emperor, do you really think he is a vegetarian?" Li Yuanjing asked, "Would he notice if the prince made any changes? This time, someone wants to harm me!"
Zhu Hongyan was startled for a moment, "Is it Dou Huaishan?"
Li Yuanjing shook his head, "Dou Huaishan won't reach out to this king now."
"If it's not Dou Huaishan, it's the emperor." Zhu Hongyan added.
"Although my imperial brother is wary of me, he still doesn't bother to do this kind of thing. He is just watching me to see if I will take this step." Li Yuanjing said.
"It's neither Dou Huaishan nor the emperor, so who is he?" Zhu Hongyan frowned slightly.
"Who it is, I am not sure. In short, I will not take any action before I get Li Qian." Li Yuanjing said.
When Li Qian was mentioned, Zhu Hongyan frowned a little more.
"Your Highness, we don't know whether Li Qian can come back alive this time."
Li Yuanjing pulled up his cloak, "What? Do you think he will die in Xizhou?"
"It's not that I think it is, but the Dou family originally wanted to get rid of him. Although his death may cause some changes, the Dou family can completely replace Tao Zong. It would be easier to control it by finding a substitute." Zhu Hongyan said, "This kind of thing It is not difficult for the Dou family."
Li Yuan nodded and said, "You can think of this, it's really good. If I were Dou Huaishan, I would also choose to do this. After all, Li Qi'an's life will indeed bring some uncontrollable risks, but if Li Qi'an died so easily, , is he still Li Qian?"
Zhu Hongyan was startled.
"You have been in contact with Li Qian so many times, do you think he is a person who can be easily killed?" After Li Yuanjing finished speaking, he seemed to talk too much and started to cough.
"Your Highness, how is your body?" Zhu Hongyan asked worriedly.
At the same time, she had to admit that what King Xian said made sense. It was unexpected that His Highness had never met Li Qian, but he knew Li Qian better than she did.
Li Yuanjing waved his hand and said, "I am fine. Although my body is a little weak, it will not kill me. I came here this time to witness with my own eyes what will happen to this incident in Dacheng." How to calm down."
"Your Highness, you mean that Dou Huaishan is destined to fail this time?" Zhu Hongyan couldn't help but ask.
"I believe in Li Qian!" Li Yuanjing said.
"But Your Highness, the military strength in the capital is indeed very empty now. Even if Li Qian is not easily killed by the Dou family, he cannot care about the situation in the capital. On the surface, Dou Huaishan is causing chaos in Yixi Province, triggering reactions from all parties. The purpose of making the imperial court have to send troops to suppress it is probably to evacuate the military strength in the capital, and the capital should be his real target!" Zhu Hongyan said.
"Dou Huaishan is indeed cunning, but if you can think of it, why can't Li Qian think of it? Maybe he has already thought of everything you can't think of!" Li Yuanjing said.
Zhu Hongyan was speechless for a moment.
"This is also the reason why I came here in person. If I were to solve this game, I would be helpless. I just want to see how Li Qian can turn this situation around!" Li Yuanjing said.
