There is the last martial arts competition in the afternoon, and His Majesty is still here, with a specially built camp for a short rest.
When Jun Ci arrived, he also saw the servant coming out with a food box. Apparently Yuan You had just finished his meal.
After the waiter informed her, she was quickly and politely invited in.
Standing in the not-so-luxurious tent, Jun Ci saluted and glanced at the people beside Yuan You without leaving a trace. Just when he was hesitating whether to speak, Yuan You stepped back and ordered his confidants to guard the entrance of the tent.
"Jun Qing, do you have something to say to me?" Yuan You asked.
Jun Ci did not speak. With her sharp eyes and ears, she noticed that someone was eavesdropping. She had an idea and said: "Your Majesty is frightened, and I came here to express my condolences. I saw that Your Majesty was having a meal. I wonder if I would be lucky enough to accompany His Majesty to eat?"
Yuan You laughed loudly: "That's exactly what I meant. Junqing thinks that there is a good place to go."
"The day before yesterday, I accidentally discovered a beautiful place with dense trees and shade, not afraid of the sun." Jun Ci followed the trend.
"What are you waiting for? Jun Qing will lead the way."
So Jun Ci took Yuan You out of the camp. The two of them were monarchs and ministers who had experienced life and death adversities and relied on each other. Even if no one was eavesdropping, their secret conversation would arouse people's suspicions and not be honest.
Green and yellow alternate, the forests are dyed, dust is swirling, and the streets are flying.
The red maple is like blood, with distinct veins under the rising autumn sun.
A gust of cool breeze blows, and the fallen leaves flutter, blowing through the hair, spreading a refreshing feeling.
Along the way, the monarch and his ministers chatted about random topics such as the mountains, the climate, etc. They seemed to chat about whatever they saw, and casually headed towards the place where Jun Ci led them.
Jun Ci was one step behind Yuan You and stood on the edge of a cliff, looking at the surrounding mountains: "Your Majesty, the horse was injured by a hidden weapon today. Does your Majesty have any clues?"
She asked extremely tactfully, but with such a careful attitude, Yuan You turned around and glanced at the attendant who was ordered to stand ten steps away, and his eyes seemed to fall on Jun Ci inadvertently: "Jun Qing has already had a plan in his mind.
, I and you don’t need to be so cautious in testing. If you have any suspicions, just ask them directly.”
Since Yuan You said this, Jun Ci did not mince words: "Your Majesty, did your Majesty order someone to wait for the opportunity to collide with the horse today?"
She stood up straight, with no questioning look on her face or eyes, just like the divine child just now. Looking from a distance, she couldn't see any change, as if she was still chatting with him.
Yuan You also turned around, with his back to Jun Ci, and his eyes turned to the treetops in the distance where unknown fruits were hanging. There was a little red among the dense green, which was really gratifying: "Yes."
"Your Majesty took such a risk, did you ever think about what might happen..." Jun Ci was a little annoyed. If she took a few breaths at night on that horse today, she would probably hit Yuan You.
At that time, all the guards were shocked. When they recovered, His Majesty was afraid that he would be seriously injured.
"The presence of Jun Qing is my confidence." Since Yuan You was the one who took action, he naturally had some successes. Moreover, he was not powerless. He had already taken precautions, even if Jun Ci was not in time.
Even if it is stopped, he can dodge the collision.
After all, Jun Ci was different. Although Jun Ci felt that Yuan You was reckless, she couldn't criticize him harshly since the matter had come to this.
The suspicion in her heart was confirmed, and Jun Ci couldn't help but think of Ying Wuchen's words. She still didn't believe that Yuan You would be so impulsive.
Taking action rashly and putting oneself in danger is already impulsive. It would be even more foolish to risk Yuan She's life again.
Jun Ci then probed: "Now that the matter has come to this, I would like to ask you boldly, why does your Majesty take such a risk?"
The cool breeze of the cliff blew, and Yuan You's hair scattered on his shoulders flew together with his broad sleeves and robes. He did not answer the emperor's words immediately. The shade of the trees above his head was like a canopy, blocking the scorching sun, and also in his handsome and deep silhouette.
A dark shadow was cast on his face, and the shadows of the trees were whirling, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
The long silence made Jun Ci's heart sink again and again, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose.
Just when she opened her mouth to change her words and didn't want to hear Yuan You's answer anymore, Yuan You spoke first. He turned his head, smiled gently at her, and said in a questioning tone: "Yuan She is Zhou's confidant.
He is deeply involved with the clan, so I want to get rid of him. What do you think?"
If I hadn't been reminded by Ying Wuchen, Jun Ci might have lost his composure.
When she came back, Yuan You blamed himself in front of her for not being able to act on Yuan She immediately. His words were still in her ears. No matter how simple she was, she would not be able to think of this. And with her intelligence, how could she not think that Yuan She was not the best person?
The best, or even the worst scapegoat? But His Majesty chose this way, and he was indeed venting his anger for her.
For a time, Junci had mixed feelings.
If Ying Wuchen hadn't pointed out that His Majesty might have a romantic relationship with her, she would have thought that His Majesty treated her out of mutual dependence and love, the only kind of love that allowed each other to trust and help each other.
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Jun Ci frowned, as if he didn't think about the love between men and women at all, but said frankly: "Your Majesty, I thank you for your kindness and consideration. The minister of Pule County deliberately framed Yuan She for the purpose
It can be transferred away from Pule County.
Your Majesty can better contact Beizhen and join forces with him to deal with the Prime Minister when necessary. I originally just wanted to hide for a day or two and show up again. I never thought that the Prime Minister would order Zhou Quan to launch an attack in Guanlong. This matter happened because of me.
Can you just sit back and watch His Majesty being in a dilemma? So I personally went to Guanlong..."
Jun Ci covered up the matter and told Yuan You everything about Huo Huanbu. As for the time to go to Micang Mountain, she lied about encountering a group of bandits, which wasted some time.
These are all trivial matters, and Yuan You will not go into detail. After he finished speaking, Jun Ci said: "Therefore, Your Majesty is so considerate of his subordinates that I dare not bear it. Yuan She has lost Pule County, although he can implicate the clan, but
The clan is weak, and he and the Prime Minister will be of no use until the last moment. If it comes to the last moment, it will be no harm to His Majesty to have him.
Your Majesty's painstaking planning should not be wasted on Yuan She. It is better to find another Prime Minister and a party member in the court to cause internal strife in the Zhou family, so that the Zhou family will be thrown into chaos, and Your Majesty can retreat unscathed and reap the benefits.
."
There are three main points in her words.
The first is to regard Yuan You's thoughts as sympathy for his subordinates; the second is to name Yuan She's use to Zhou Rong, but it is only in the clan, which is very useless. All Yuan She can do is to serve Zhou Rong.
After killing Yuan You, you can appease the Yuan family's branches like him and don't take advantage of the chaos to promote the orthodoxy of the Yuan family in the Northern Dynasty and stir up trouble everywhere. Just like today in the Southern Dynasties, anyone with the surname Liu must link himself to the Han Dynasty lineage.
At this moment, Yuan You must have encountered something unexpected. As long as Yuan You is still alive, Yuan She will be unable to play a role.
