Fifty-five, conspiracy revealed - to the man who was put on the dove
Although it is still winter in Kyoto Prefecture, there are rarely sunny days.
The weather is very good, the sun is bright and sunny.
Kong Xu put his hands on his eyes and looked at the dazzling sunlight.
"This eldest prince really knows how to choose the right time. He is so kind that he actually asked someone to inform me that he is coming to Kyoto."
Regarding Chu Zizhan's itinerary, Kong Xu had received advance notice from people sent by Chu Zizhan. Naturally, Kong Xu also sent someone to inform Prince Chu Ziya of the matter. As for whether Chu Ziya would have
Action is not what Kong Xu has to worry about here.
The relationship between the two princes in the imperial court is already well known to everyone. Especially after the second prince Chu Ziya was made the crown prince, the relationship between the two princes seemed to have become extremely tense.
And Kong Xu always felt that Chu Ziya asked Miss Xiaoyan to invite him to Tianxiang Tower a few days ago. In addition to watching Su Ling'er's performance, there must be another purpose, especially the last sentence the prince asked him.
"Why did my father ask my eldest brother to go to Qijiazhuang?"
Kong Xu has been thinking about this sentence these days. After all, as a veteran official, even seemingly ordinary words always contain deep meanings.
"Why go to Qijiazhuang..." Kong Xu murmured at that time, and then said to Chu Ziya, "Your Majesty's intention is naturally His Majesty's, and this veteran has no idea."
Kong Xu was certainly not lying. He didn’t know why Chu Boxiong asked the eldest prince to go to Qijiazhuang. It stands to reason that Qijiazhuang has been on the same page with the Chu royal family since the battle of Liuling. If
If there is really something unsolvable there, Chu Boxiong can just send someone there casually. It seems that there is no need to go to great lengths to ask the eldest prince to bring the black-armored guards there.
You must know that the existence of the Black Armored Guards is an insurmountable existence for any force. The Battle of Liuling made the Black Armored Guards shine, and the Liuzhou Ye Family made them wear a fierce and murderous coat.
"What happened in Qijiazhuang that required the use of black-armored guards?" Kong Xu thought to himself.
In fact, this is also what the prince Chu Ziya is thinking about. He didn't care about the eldest prince's movements at first, especially when he learned that his eldest brother was sent to Qijiazhuang by his father. He thought it was just an ordinary dispatch. After all, Qi
He was also a participant in what happened at Jiazhuang. He didn't think there was anything worthy of Chu Boxiong's or Chu Zi's attention.
Interestingly, when he learned that Chu Boxiong asked Chu Zizhan to bring the black armored guards, Chu Ziya's thoughts changed completely.
At the beginning, Chu Ziya accepted the "help" from Qi Lei, the second master of Qi Family Village, just because in this way he could control Qi Family Village through the superior Qi Lei, although Chu Ziya knew the possibility of Qi Family Village wanting to break away from the royal family.
It is almost non-existent, but no matter what the outcome is, the benefits to oneself are there, that is, Qijiazhuang will only serve oneself from now on.
However, Chu Boxiong's subsequent arrangements made Chu Ziya a little worried about whether his plan would be exposed, so he asked the Jiang sisters to return to Qijiazhuang. It would be okay if things went well. If Qi Lei failed, their
The mission is to get rid of Qi Lei.
Chu Ziya didn't get the answer he wanted from Kong Xu, so he asked Kong Xu to leave Tianxiang Tower. When he left, he just asked: "Remember to let me know if there is any news from the eldest prince."
Thinking of this, Kong Xu rubbed his swollen forehead. His forehead, which was originally not wide enough, turned red due to his softness.
Kong Xu stood in the yard with a headache for a while. When he saw that the time was almost up, he shouted outside: "Dongzi, prepare the carriage, I'm going to pick up someone."
"My eldest brother is coming back?" Chu Ziya was half leaning on the bed, holding a book in one hand, and then looked at the little eunuch who came to report the news.
"Exactly, someone came to Mr. Kong's residence just now to inform His Royal Highness that the eldest prince's motorcade is about to enter the Kyoto residence."
Chu Ziya smiled, then ignored the little eunuch in front of him and continued reading there by himself.
The little eunuch who was left hanging there was indeed a little embarrassed, but he didn't know what he should do, so he had no choice but to kneel there and not dare to move, just hoping that the prince in front of him would think of him sooner.
Chu Ziya didn't let the little eunuch wait too long. He slowly put down the book in his hand and looked at the little eunuch kneeling there with a smile.
At this time, the little eunuch was not happy that His Highness the Prince finally thought of him. Instead, he felt a little uncomfortable with the other person's gaze.
The little eunuch was a little panicked. He didn't know what he had done wrong. He actually let the Crown Prince look at him like this. It felt like being stared at by a poisonous snake. He couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in his heart, and then it slowly amplified in his heart.
Until my heart began to collapse.
Yes, the little eunuch collapsed. The panic in his eyes turned into fear, and then suddenly
Then he kowtowed to His Highness the Crown Prince in front of him, like a little chicken that kept pecking at food.
Chu Ziya did not stop him, but watched the little eunuch in front of him keep kowtowing to him to admit his mistake. He watched him kowtow his forehead until it turned red and purple, and then the red liquid flowed out from his forehead.
The ground beneath him was soaked red.
The little eunuch fainted and fell to the ground. Chu Ziya still looked at him with a smile, and then slowly shook his head.
There was a soft knock on the door, and there was a voice coming from outside.
"Your Highness, there is news from spies outside."
Chu Ziya finally spoke, as if he was waiting for this news.
"Come in." Chu Ziya sat up from the bed, straightened his clothes, but did not glance at the little eunuch who fainted on the ground.
The door opened slightly, and another person wearing eunuch uniform pushed in. But when he looked carefully, he found that this person was different. His skin was fair, but he was unlike any other woman in the palace.
Chu Ziya did not take the paper handed over by the other party to record the news. Instead, he raised his right hand and gently stroked the man's face with his index finger. His movements were extremely ambiguous. If others saw it, they might think that the prince in front of him
Your Highness has the habit of Longyang.
The person who came in to deliver the message did not dodge, and allowed Chu Ziya's index finger to scratch his cheek.
The delicate skin was scratched by fingertips.
"Xiao Yan, I suddenly realized that you look quite good dressed like this."
It turned out that the person who came to deliver the news was the girl Xiaoyan who invited Kong Xu that day.
After Chu Ziya finished speaking, he laughed, then changed the topic and said to Xiao Yan: "What is the news from the outside?"
"The eldest prince and his entourage have stopped at a post station twenty miles away and will not be able to enter Kyoto until tomorrow." Xiao Yan replied.
Chu Ziya narrowed his eyes slightly, then raised the corner of his mouth in an imperceptible arc, and said to himself: "My eldest brother is just too suspicious. He openly told everyone in Kyoto that he was about to
When I entered Kyoto Prefecture, I secretly moved into an inn, so you were afraid that I might do something secretly."
Chu Ziya pressed his fingers hard, and the paper in his hand instantly turned into powder and floated into the air.
