In the deep palace, a woman with a graceful figure and a lazy expression, exuding a graceful, luxurious and mature charm, was leaning on the phoenix chair, holding a small heater in her arms, and eating green tea from the plate with a proud face. Grape.
This plate of grapes was held respectfully by a handsome man on his knees.
A eunuch walked quickly into the Queen's Hall.
"Queen, Zhu Muen and others drove a carriage out of the north gate."
Wan Mengyan glanced at the kneeling handsome man: "Yizhi, what do you think?"
The kneeling handsome man smiled and said: "Replying to the queen, I thought that Zhu Mu'en was fierce in appearance and had a soft heart. He was in charge, and the substitute was nothing to worry about. Zhu Mu'en and Shen Zhe knew each other, and their group would probably flee to Huangzhou. Find Shen Zhe. Your Majesty only needs to set up a few checkpoints on the southbound road to capture this double easily."
"Besides, there are people from the Empress next to the substitute. Maybe they can follow the substitute to help the Empress do something."
Wan Mengyan nodded: "The third child's little tricks are just trying to deceive me. How can I fall for this simple substitute plan? Now that the real person is dead, a substitute can't make any waves. Let them do it Bar."
Then he traced the handsome man's chin with his fingertips: "Li Yizhi, you think exactly the same as I think. Could it be the roundworm in my belly?"
"If a minor minister can be the roundworm in the Queen's belly, it is a blessing from our ancestors. In addition, the fourth prince should also prepare for the succession ceremony."
"That's right. I'll leave it to you to take charge of this matter. Before that, there is something else you need to do."
Wan Mengyan hooked her fingers on Li Yizhi's lapel, leaned into Li Yizhi's ear and whispered, "Yizhi, continue to use your treasure to communicate with me tonight, okay?"
"Wei Chen obeys the decree..."
The carriage was still moving quickly.
Along the way, Chen Qin learned about the situation in Zhanfeng City.
Yang Zhaozhong gave a detailed account.
Zhanfeng City is located on the northern border of the Dayong Dynasty, guarding the entrance of the narrow Zhanfeng Valley.
After crossing Zhanfeng City and passing through Zhanfeng Valley, you can reach the Desert Dynasty above the desert.
The Desert Dynasty and the Dayong Dynasty have been in a state of hostility for a long time, but the Dayong Dynasty has always had the upper hand.
Because the Dayong Dynasty can send troops to attack the Desert Dynasty at any time, but the Desert Dynasty has no way to counterattack the Dayong Dynasty at any time.
The root cause lies in the fact that Zhanfeng City, a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, is firmly controlled by Dayong.
One man can guard the gate, and ten thousand men can't open it. This is a perfect description of Zhanfeng City.
It is obvious that the city guard of Zhanfeng City must be someone deeply trusted by His Majesty.
The city guard, Chu Tang, has been guarding Zhanfeng Town for nearly thirty years.
Although Chu and Tang only defended one city, they did not have many troops. But among the civil and military officials in the dynasty, few people could win His Majesty's Sacred Heart more than Chu and Tang.
Chu and Tang, who were extremely human ministers, should have been prosperous, wealthy, happy and unrestrained throughout their lives.
Unfortunately, the big tree attracts the wind.
Queen Wan Mengyan felt that Chu Tang was a talented person and wanted Chu Tang to marry her sister, win over Chu Tang, and pave the way for her son to inherit the throne.
However, Chu Tang did not agree.
At this time, he already had a wife, and she was very loving. He would never divorce her to marry the queen's sister.
So the queen planned to poison Chu Tang's first wife, hoping that Chu Tang would remarry her sister.
Unexpectedly, Chu Tang, who was usually amiable to everyone, was uncharacteristically strong and strong. He actually tied himself naked when he went to court and complained tearfully to the queen's behavior.
The emperor seemed unaware of the queen's behavior and was speechless for a moment.
After verification, the emperor publicly accused the queen of what he had done, and comforted Chu Tang, allowing Chu Tang to continue returning to Zhanfeng Town to guard the border.
At this point, Chu Tang had a deadly feud with the queen.
Chu Tang was able to confront the Queen head-on only because of the Emperor's trust and support for him.
Now that the emperor passed away, Chu and Tang's status immediately plummeted and became precarious.
After hearing the cause and effect, Chen Qin became even more convinced that it was the right decision for him to go to Zhanfeng City to join his "father-in-law".
Over there is a domestic dog that has lost its power, and here is a flying eagle with a broken wing. They are both fallen humans in the world.
The two are close to each other. You have soldiers and I have fame. They just form a group to keep each other warm.
"My father-in-law, this king is here!"
While learning the news about Zhanfeng City, Chen Qin was also observing the five people who were temporarily following him.
Yang Zhaozhong was the first to express support for himself and answered all questions he had about what he said. Although sometimes it is not thoughtful enough, it can also be said that it is done its best.
Lu Fengnan kept driving, but he seemed quite satisfied with his new master. He even hummed a ditty outside and reported to himself his current itinerary from time to time.
As for Wu Jin, who was bearded and poorly dressed, and Zuo Wende, who had a gentle face and a jujube face, they had not spoken much and were probably still in a wait-and-see attitude.
Finally, there is the square-faced Gao Bo, who is confused in everything he says and does. He is always depressed and seems unwilling to accept the current situation.
With a general understanding, Chen Qin felt at ease.
The situation is not bad.
Now the six people are grasshoppers tied to a rope, an absolute community of interests.
As long as there are no trouble-making people and the relationship is slowly getting along, the relationship will always get better.
Thinking of this, Chen Qin felt more and more that killing scar-faced Zhu Muen with poison was the right decision.
If that Zhu Muen were still alive today, he would definitely be a piece of rat shit!
It will definitely threaten your right to speak!
Fortunately, the bodies are now completely cold.
Chen Qin couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Two words, comfortable!
Lu Fengnan and Wu Jin drove the carriage alternately without stopping.
Even at night, the carriage was still on its way.
"Lu Fengnan, doesn't this horse need a rest?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, both horses are royal and fed with natural materials and treasures. They can pull the carriage for three to five days in a row without any problem!"
Chen Qin sighed secretly. Not to mention the shocking battle between Eunuch Zhou and Eunuch Li, even the horses were so powerful. This world was indeed very different from his previous life.
After marching for three days and three nights without stopping, they finally arrived at Zhanfeng City.
"Your Highness, Zhanfeng City has arrived."
Chen Qin opened the car curtain and saw a high city stuck in the valley not far away.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Wu Jin. How do we get into the city?"
Lu Fengnan was stunned for a moment, then said slowly: "Your Highness, it seems... there is no need to worry, there is a team of cavalry coming to pick up Your Highness."
"Accept this king? Who? Chu Tang?"
"No, he's a young general..."
Yang Zhaozhong immediately said: "It should be Chu Tang's eldest son, Chu Yangwei."
"Chu Yangwei?"
"Yes, Chu Tang did not have any concubines, and he and his wife only had one son and one daughter. The eldest son, Chu Yangwei, and the youngest daughter, Chu Luoling."
It turned out to be my uncle.
Lu Fengnan outside asked, "Your Highness, do you want to get out of the car?"
"Let's wait and see, there's no rush."
"yes."
Chen Qin didn't know what his uncle meant by coming. Logically speaking, Chu Tang should come in person to greet him.
What is the intention of being so indifferent?
After a while, Chen Qin heard the sound of horse hooves stopping in front of his carriage.
A loud voice came: "Who is coming?!"
Lu Fengnan, who was driving outside, answered correctly: "It's His Highness King Qin! Why don't you get off your horse to greet him?!"
Chu Yangwei chuckled: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin?! This general heard that His Highness the King of Qin has died in the capital. What kind of thing is in your carriage?"
Chen Qin frowned when he heard this.
There's something wrong with this uncle. He insulted himself so much and was so anxious to take off his third prince's "clothes", what on earth was he going to do?
Would the Chu family want to kidnap him to the capital and poison him to confess his crime?
If this is really the case, then Chu Tang is a bit stupid. If you kidnap a real third prince, maybe the poison queen will spare your life. What's the use of tying up my substitute?
"Why don't the rats inside quickly get out of the car and surrender?!"
Chen Qin was furious when he heard this. His only trump card was the identity of the third prince.
If someone wants to reveal his identity, it is no different from killing himself!
Then he said sternly: "I am just the son of the city guard, but he is worthy of yelling at me?! Aren't you afraid of being punished for the crime of disrespect?!"
Chu Yangwei's voice revealed disdain: "You said you were the third prince, so who was the man who died in the southern suburbs of the capital three days ago?"
Chen Qin's voice was still full of majesty: "My king, do I need to explain to you?!"
"What?"
"For your father's sake, I have endured your rudeness over and over again, so don't be disrespectful!"
Yang Zhaozhong and others were extremely surprised when they saw Chen Qin's tit-for-tat confrontation. When he arrived at someone else's territory, this impostor actually refused to give in at all? !
Lu Fengnan, who was driving outside, could no longer hide the surprise in his eyes.
Chu Yangwei was about to continue to make things difficult, when suddenly his ears twitched and he nodded slightly.
He immediately turned over and dismounted: "My father sent a message to the villain, saying that the one who died in the capital was undoubtedly the third prince, His Highness King Qin. The villain was rude just now, and I hope His Highness the King of Qin will forgive me!"
Chen Qin said coldly: "I forgive you for not being guilty. Please take me to see the Chu City Guards."
"yes!"
On top of the city, two people slowly walked down.
"Luo Ling, your fiancé is not easy to get along with."
"Father, do you want a son-in-law who is easy to get along with, or a son-in-law who is not easy to get along with?"
"Hey, if His Majesty is still here, then of course my father would like you to marry a gentle man..."
"My daughter knows." A pair of beautiful eyes under Chu Luoling's helmet stared at Chen Qin's carriage: "So, you have decided to let your daughter marry this beggar substitute, right?"
