"What he is anxious about is not whether his aunt has succeeded, but how he should explain to his collaborators." Hei Luer stood up and walked slowly around the room, "It's been a long time since the incident happened. It has been at least ten days and he still has not heard from his aunt and the man in black, nor has he waited for them to smuggle His Highness out of Xijing. This is what should make him anxious and angry."
"I just don't know now how the Crown Prince made an agreement with his collaborators, such as when and how to hand over His Highness to his collaborators, and when the deadline is, and what happens beyond this deadline? What kind of punishment will the Crown Prince suffer?" Ah Piao raised an eyebrow at His Highness, "I am not very interested in the ones in front of me, but I am very much looking forward to the last one."
"Watching the fun is not too big a deal!" His Highness looked helplessly at A Piao's gloating expression, "Do you think these aunts will know?"
"Aunt..." A Piao and Hei Lu'er looked at each other, "It depends on whether the prince trusts his aunt, or whether his collaborators trust his aunt. If they are in cahoots with each other and have similar odors, then there is a very good chance that they will. Bajiu knows it, but if they each have their own evil intentions and their own plans, then it’s hard to say.”
"I don't know about others, but Auntie must." Hei Luer curled her lips in disgust, "Auntie is eager to recruit everyone and get out of jail as soon as possible."
"Not necessarily." Ah Piao waved her hand, "Judging from the current situation, Auntie has two choices."
"Which two types?" Hei Lu'er and His Highness said in unison.
"The first one, as we just talked about, in order to get out of jail and out of our control as soon as possible, she chose to tell everything. But there is a premise, that is, His Highness's secret cannot be exposed. If His Highness's secret Once she is exposed, even if she commits all the crimes, we cannot let her go to prevent her from going outside and talking nonsense."
"Indeed." His Highness nodded, "Now we are the only ones who know that she has evil intentions and wants to get the throne, but the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty do not know that she has evil intentions and that she wants to overthrow the entire Jin Kingdom. Therefore, they told aunt I still believe what I say, in their eyes, my aunt is my absolute confidant."
"So, for this reason, it is unlikely that she will confess on her own initiative unless we agree to pardon her and save her life." A Piao waved her hand towards His Highness, "How to do it depends on His Highness's intention. . But in my opinion, she will choose the second path."
"That's really the case! So, what is this second way you are talking about?"
"No matter what we promised, no matter how drastic measures we used, she chose to remain silent and resolutely stayed in jail." Hei Lu'er walked up to Ah Piao and patted her shoulder, "I understand. What you mean. Since my aunt has already offended His Highness, it is better to offend him completely than to offend the prince and be hunted down by them after confessing."
"Yes, that's what I mean." Ah Piao snapped her fingers, "Master Hei's understanding is very good!"
"From the aunt's point of view, the confrontation with us is an open sword and a clear gun. Both sides are on the bright side. You can see the comings and goings. It is still unknown who will lose and who will win. But with the prince and his collaborators , the confrontation between them is not so clear and clear, and is not under the control of the aunt. The aunt is in the light, the other side is in the dark, and what tricks the other side wants to use are unknown to the aunt. Even if it can be obtained from prison, I have left the palace, but my life is in danger. I have to live in hiding and wandering around every day. This kind of torture is probably unacceptable to my aunt."
"Indeed!" His Highness agreed with Hei Lu'er's statement, "Auntie's life, not to mention glory and wealth, has been without worries about food and clothing. She has never lived that kind of life. If she is allowed to hide everywhere and sleep in the open like a refugee, It would be better to kill her for fun!"
"Yes, although the prison is not as clean, warm, and convenient as the house, and there is no one around to take care of you, but at least you can sleep peacefully, eat comfortably, and don't have to worry about whether there will be plots, assassinations, or sneak attacks anytime and anywhere."
"Besides these, there is another more important point." Hei Lu'er stood in front of His Highness and Ah Piao, holding out a finger, "If they don't offend the Crown Prince and his collaborators, maybe they can still see her strictly guarding the For the sake of secrecy, find a way to rescue her."
"I have thought about this, but..." His Highness shook his head slightly, "Auntie is not as important to them as she thought." Seeing the puzzled expressions on both of them, she explained, "You think, why did they choose my aunt to cooperate instead of choosing someone else? Because my aunt is my relative and is with me almost every day, right? They can get any updates and situations of mine through my aunt. They can keep track of my situation at any time. However, if they know that my aunt has been caught by us and her identity is completely exposed to us, then she has no use value at all, and it is useless to rescue her, so why should they go What about rescue? If someone is not careful and falls into our hands again, it won’t be worth it.”
"You guys said..." Ah Piao touched her chin, looked at His Highness, then at Hei Lu'er, and said hesitantly, "Will this be the key to prying open Auntie's mouth?"
