"In that case, I should persuade His Highness to release the Prefect immediately?"
Chu Nanzhi looked at Xing Huan with an ambiguous tone.
"Xiaoguan is not afraid of death. It's just that the poor princess has to face so many aristocratic families alone in the future. I really can't bear it."
Seeing that Chu Nanzhi did not refute him, Xing Huan began to speak more and more enthusiastically: "Xiaoguan knows that the princess is busy all day long, but she also has to take care of His Highness and the little princess. The little princess is really hard work, so she has been carefully selected.
A girl who is proficient in medical skills came to help the princess, but she was misunderstood in this way. It is really a great injustice."
After carefully looking at her, Xing Huan continued: "Xia Guan thought about it and finally came up with some clues. The reason why Your Highness treats Xi Guan like this is because he is worried that the princess has his own inner circle.
Princess Yuanxi will marry into the palace soon, and His Highness must be unwilling to allow the power of Xiaguan, who is loyal to the princess, to be used by the princess, making the princess become the most powerful one."
"Well, your analysis makes sense."
Seeing his serious nonsense, Chu Nanzhi actually started to instigate a relationship between herself and the pretty girl, and pretended to agree: "Your Highness often suffers from leg problems now. Although I have been given the full power to take care of the palace for him, I even even
He can interfere in the affairs of the state capital, but after all, he is the king, so how could he be willing to let me monopolize the power?"
"Yes, Princess. Because of this, Princess cannot allow Your Highness to cut off loyal people like us."
Xing Huan heard her tone as if she had been persuaded by him, and he did not dare to neglect, and continued in a vigorous manner: "I know very well that the power of the princess's mother's family is weak, and when Princess Yuanxi enters the palace, she will definitely threaten the princess.
status, so I thought of dedicating Lianyi to the princess. This girl is extremely smart and will definitely be able to help the princess."
After a pause, a sinister smile gradually appeared on his sly face: "If there are any lower officials planning for the princess, the future of the Pingning Palace will not be decided by the princess alone."
"That's a good idea of yours."
Chu Nan Zhiying smiled.
This guy is really good at talking nonsense.
He clearly wanted to seduce the pretty girl by sending charming women like Lianyi here, and he even said they were here to help him.
Looking at Xing Huan's confident aura, she always felt that this guy had some power behind his back, otherwise he would not dare to invite her here rashly.
Not eager to break up with him, Chu Nanzhi's face darkened, and he sighed sadly: "Why don't I want to have some power of my own? The prefect also knows that my mother's family is a down-and-out merchant family.
How powerful is it to compete with Princess Yuanxi and the Tang family behind her?"
"Since I'm here, the princess doesn't have to worry."
Xing Huan's expression immediately became more serious, and he vowed: "As long as I am still breathing, no one will be allowed to dare to disrespect the princess."
His eyes paused slightly, and he suddenly looked at Chu Nanzhi quietly, thinking that he should give her some sweetness first, so that she could escape the crime, and then said: "I heard that the princess loves horses, and I am in Tianhe County, Funing County."
There is a secret private property where three thousand war horses are kept. If the princess likes it, I am willing to donate all of it to the princess."
"Three thousand war horses?"
Upon hearing this number, Chu Nanzhi was directly shocked.
I exhausted my savings and could only buy more than a thousand horses with more than 100,000 taels of silver. I never thought that this guy, just a county guard, could raise so many war horses.
How much money will be spent on the horse farm this year?
"Why does Prefect Xing keep so many war horses?"
Chu Nanzhi asked pretending not to care.
"Xiaguan.xiaguan"
Xing Huan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly his expression changed, and he cautiously said, "Would the princess be willing to believe that the official is sincere and sincere towards the princess?"
"Of course you can trust it."
Chu Nanzhi smiled lightly and replied: "Even now, I can't exonerate the prefect. After all, the little lady Lianyi entered His Highness's room alone. Whether the assassination is true or not depends entirely on his words. If
Your Highness is unwilling to forgive me, and there is nothing I can do about it."
"this"
Hearing this, Xing Huan couldn't help but frown.
What she said really didn't seem like she was lying to herself.
But why did King Pingning want to frame him?
Xing Huan still hadn't figured it out until now.
This time, in order to please King Pingning, he gave away all the best rare treasures collected by the county. Even his most beloved woman was given to him. There was no reason for him to be so ungrateful and let himself fall.
It's so miserable.
"Princess, princess, it's not a pity for me to die, but the only thing I'm worried about is you, princess. I'm worried that the princess will be persecuted by Princess Yuanxi in the future because she is so weak."
At this time, Xing Huan could only desperately grasp this life-saving straw and begged bitterly: "If the princess can ask for His Highness's forgiveness on behalf of the official, the official will tie a grass ring in his name and swear to follow the princess to the death, even if he is hurt."
Chu Nanzhi listened to his earnest talk for a long time. Except for the three thousand war horses in Tianhe County, the rest were just flattering words and did not get any other useful information.
She had always been unwilling to take this man's sweet words to heart. She lost her patience for a moment, looked at him with cold eyes, and smiled coldly:
"So Governor Xing specially sent someone to summon me here just to express your true feelings and want me to avenge your grievances?"
"No, it's not just that. I've invited the princess here because I have important matters to discuss with the princess."
Xing Huan saw the impatience on her face and anxiously went straight to the topic: "The situation in Jingling City is currently in chaos. Hasn't the princess made plans for her and His Highness's future?"
Naturally, Chu Nanzhi would not mention this kind of thing to him, and replied perfunctorily: "Your Majesty has entrusted His Highness with an important task. Naturally, the two of us will do our best to protect the southern territory for Your Majesty and prevent foreign invaders from invading."
"The fate of Pingning Prefecture will probably repeat the same mistakes as it did two hundred years ago."
Xing Huan frowned and sighed bitterly: "No matter whether King Qinghe or King Beibin ascends the throne in the future, will these two princes just watch and let the princess and their highness support their troops in Pingning Prefecture?"
"I'm afraid not."
Chu Nanzhi rolled her eyes secretly: I still need you to teach me such a simple truth?
"I have a plan to help His Highness and the Princess successfully enter Jinling City."
Xing Huan carefully looked around, lowered his voice and asked Chu Nanzhi: "Do you know, Princess, that the current situation in Jingling City is so chaotic, but Your Majesty has been reluctant to appoint a successor to the throne?"
"This is Your Majesty's business. As a woman, I naturally don't know about it."
In the dim firelight, Chu Nanzhi's bright, watery eyes blinked slyly, and her face was terrifyingly calm, never showing any flaws.
"This involves a huge secret."
Xing Huan smiled sadly: "That's because the posthumous son of Prince Ting'an is still alive."
After hearing this, Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but be startled, and then immediately turned into an indifferent smile and said: "Prefect Xing is really good at joking. The posthumous son of Prince Ting'an had already died in the palace incident that year.
