Chapter 78: I wanted to turn a sparrow into a phoenix 12
"To say it or not to say it!"
Princess Taiping roared angrily!
If Wu Zui is not brought back, the emperor's brother now has only two choices, one is to marry himself, or to fight with the Yi State.
However, not long after the death of his father and elder brother, the morale of the army was not yet unified, and many people formed cliques.
There is simply not enough troops to win, so... now there is only one option left, to marry oneself to the Yi State.
“……”
Xiaoxiang still refused to say it, not because she refused but because she didn't know where Wuzui was now.
The former Princess Tianxi just said that she should rescue Wu Zui to ensure that she would be fine.
There was no mention of where Wu Zui should be moved.
In fact, if they were smart enough, they would have found Wu Zui just now in the Zhang family, and now he has been sent out of Kyoto.
Seeing that Xiaoxiang didn't speak again, Princess Taiping became anxious.
He raised his hand to prick another one when the voice of the Fourth Prince came from the door.
"stop!"
Princess Taiping looked up and saw that not only the fourth prince was here, but also Princess Xi and the emperor's brother.
Seeing them, Princess Taiping immediately stood up and walked to them. She turned back and glared at Xiaoxiang and said to them: "Xiaoxiang, you bitch, let Wuzui go."
When everyone present saw the emperor, they all saluted.
"Long live my emperor..."
He was dressed in casual clothes, and the people arranged in the courtyard were all common people who had never seen the emperor. They were not allowed to report the guards guarding the door.
So no one saluted along the way.
The emperor said: "You all go back."
The banquet ended unhappily, and everyone went back.
The only ones left now are the Zhang family and the royal family. Soon the Queen Mother arrived. What a big deal.
The other side.
Wu Zui looked around with a smile, and happily said to the man in black next to him: "Sister, thank you."
Even though he was covered with a black veil, Wu Zui could still tell that the man in black was a woman.
"Wu Zui, thank you for nothing."
The man in black took off his mask and turned around to give Wu Zui a funny smile.
Seeing her cheeks, Wu Zui was shocked: "Han... Ru... Qiu..."
"What's wrong? You forgot about me so quickly, Wu Zui..."
Han Ruqiu walked up to Wu Zui and said with a smile, then walked to the table and poured two glasses of water, handing one to Wu Zui and drinking the other himself.
"What's going on now? How could you come to save me?"
After Han Ruqiu's detailed explanation, Wu Zui finally understood the reason.
It turns out that Princess Xi took advantage of the fourth prince's desire to save Wu Zui and cooperated with him, and the fourth prince recognized her as his mother.
Now the emperor has been deliberately trying to get rid of the fourth prince. If he does not form an alliance with Princess Xi, he will be eliminated one by one.
Therefore, the fourth prince chose to be with Princess Xi, but he had no intention of competing for the throne. No matter how the emperor treated him, he was doing it for self-protection.
Concubine Xi was the former emperor's concubine, and according to custom, she had to be buried alive.
Because the power behind her was strong, and she said she had a son, it was the Fourth Prince.
Before his death, the late emperor also told everyone that Princess Xi was the fourth prince's mother-in-law, so he was saved from death.
After listening to Han Ruqiu's words, Wu Zui suddenly realized.
It turns out that's the case. No wonder this Princess Xi is so kind. It turns out that she has become his mother-in-law, and she will have to rely on the Fourth Prince for the rest of her life.
The place where Wu Zui is now is the most dangerous place. In the underworld of General Han Han Quai Ba, it is quite far away from the imperial palace. It is the only mansion outside the city gate.
