Li Ruo's body was almost lying in Xiao Qihan's arms, looking at the memorial in his hand.
A mink fur blanket was placed across a pair of jade legs, and her legs were curled up in the blanket because they were afraid of the cold.
"Now the forces in the court have begun to be re-divided after the prince was deposed. The original princelings have all joined the third prince, or have entered the neutral faction." Xiao Qihan's voice slowly sounded above her head.
.
"Although I have people, they are not enough to achieve great things." Xiao Qihan said solemnly.
Bai Liruo curled her lips, "Then last time you went to the palace to force the emperor to let me go, didn't you think that if he didn't compromise, both of us would die?"
Xiao Qihan suddenly smiled, "If we can die together, that might not be a good thing."
"When did you start placing your own people in the palace?" Bai Liruo asked curiously.
Xiao Qihan also answered without reservation, "Five years ago."
He said: "I know that many people want me dead, and I want to save my life. I can only do this. So I secretly asked Feiyunqi to capture their relatives and force them to be used by me."
Bai Liruo raised an eyebrow, this was indeed something Xiao Qihan could do.
"But..." Xiao Qihan was confused: "I still don't understand why the emperor let me directly inherit the position of my father. I thought he would find a way to kill me."
"That's because I made a bet with him."
"What bet?"
"Bet on whether you can take me away from the palace. If you can take me away, he will let me go and let you inherit the position of King Yongyi."
"You won the bet."
Li Ruo looked at him with a dimple-like smile, "Yes, I won the bet."
However, she did not expect that Xiao Qihan would directly kill the prince Xiao Rui in front of Xiao Xi.
Perhaps, he also wanted revenge.
Xiao Xi’s hatred for his parents.
"Now, do you know what to do?" She picked up the memorial in her hand and shook it.
Xiao Qihan took the memorial and threw it aside.
"I know." He picked her up and turned her over to face him.
"He can't deal with me, and I won't let him have the chance to deal with me." He stared into her eyes and said.
Looking at Xiao Qihan in front of her, he looked even more masculine than when she first saw him.
She reached out to touch his face, her fingertips gently tracing the outline of his face.
"If you want the courtiers to be of use to you, you must have one or two powerful people in the court to open the way for you." Bai Liruo said slowly: "Don't be impatient, we still have a lot of time."
Xiao Qihan held her hand, placed a gentle kiss on her palm, and said softly "Hmm".
He is not in a hurry.
He is just afraid.
Afraid that she was not where she wanted to be, she abandoned herself.
Since the prince was deposed, no one in the entire palace has seen the prince Xiao Rui again.
The East Palace was also sealed off and no one was allowed to enter.
Concubine Liu Guifei and the third prince were also surprised.
"The prince was fine, why did he disappear?" Liu Guifei asked doubtfully.
The third prince was also puzzled, but he felt an inexplicable creepy feeling.
"Mother, I don't know why, but I always feel that this matter has something to do with Xiao Qihan."
Concubine Liu Guifei's heart suddenly twitched when she heard these words.
Because she also thought of her daughter.
Although her daughter is crazy, she knows that her daughter does not seem to be crazy.
