Four hundred and thirtieth chapters see the sun behind the clouds
The princess's wedding day was getting closer, and the Qin Dynasty also began to intensively prepare for this wedding. After a few days, because Luo Jiutian was missing from his side, Shu Jun could only discuss it with himself no matter what he did.
As for the living treasures Ye Jianxing and Sikong Jianheng, they are just stupid and can't do anything except fight and kill.
These days, the only thing that makes Shu Jun feel gratified is Bai Feng, a careful and beautiful woman. Every time late at night, she will make herself a bowl of chicken soup. Although it is insignificant, Shu Jun is still very touched by her meticulousness.
After nightfall, Shu Jun, dressed lightly, was led by Huang Tian to the eldest prince's residence. He had not seen the eldest prince for some time. For this reason, the eldest prince also invited him to come to discuss matters many times.
Shu Jun has chosen to cooperate with the fourth prince Yingyu, although doing so is very risky. But under the current situation, he has to do so.
Before approaching the lobby, Shu Jun heard the sound of silk and bamboo music inside, as well as the laughter of the eldest prince.
The eldest prince who was watching the singer dance saw Shu Jun and quickly stood up to greet him, "Brother, come quickly, you haven't come to see me for some days!"
Shu Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Brother, I have too many things on my hands these days. I am so busy that I am exhausted. Please forgive me, brother."
The eldest prince laughed and held Shu Jun's hand, "Brother, I have also heard about your matter. I have also sent my men to investigate this matter. Don't worry, it will be found out one day!"
After hearing this, Shu Jun thought to himself, if I had just waited for you to check for me, the day lily would have been cold long ago! At that moment, he just smiled and sat down.
The singers in the lobby all retreated knowingly, and a group of civil servants and generals from the eldest prince accompanied them. Shu Jun took one look at this posture and knew in his heart that the eldest prince must have something important to discuss today.
Sure enough, after drinking for three rounds, Sun Mouce, the eldest prince's right-hand adviser, stood up and said, "In a few days, it will be the day for the princess to marry. I wonder how Master Shu's preparations are going?"
Shu Jun smiled faintly, stood up and asked, "But I wonder if the eldest prince wants me to become his consort?"
"What is Master Shu thinking?" Sun Mouce replied on behalf of the eldest prince.
Shu Jun secretly cursed in his heart. Sun Mouce asked this just because he wanted to find out whether he had joined forces with the fourth prince. It must be said that this Sun Mouce was a difficult opponent. Luo Jiutian was not around, and it seemed that today he could only fight with the scholars.
.
"To put it bluntly, the most important purpose of the princess's marriage this time is political marriage. Whoever can bring the greatest benefits to the Qin Dynasty may become the prince-in-law of the Qin Dynasty." Shu Jun said slowly: "To be honest,
I have no interest in the princess, I just want to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results by cooperating with the eldest prince."
"Okay, brother, I've been waiting for your words for a long time!" As soon as Shu Jun finished speaking, the eldest prince stood up excitedly, "If you help me, the throne of the Qin Dynasty will definitely be mine!"
He laughed loudly.
Shu Jun felt secretly ashamed, brother, don't blame me for lying. I have no choice but to give up on you, a weaker partner.
"Of course it is my Shu Jun's honor to be able to cooperate with me." Shu Jun said modestly, "Although we are all for each other's benefit, I admire my brother's behavior very much." Shu Jun also did not forget it.
Flattery.
The eldest prince was so happy when he heard Shu Jun praising him so much that he clapped his hands and applauded. On the other hand, his counselor Sun Mouce kept looking at Shu Jun secretly, as if he didn't believe it.
"Master Shu," Sun Mouce said again, "If I were Master Shu, I would definitely consider cooperating with the fourth prince first. After all, the sponsor of the princess's marriage this time is the fourth prince. But I don't know why Master Shu gave up.
Given such good conditions, why should we choose to cooperate with the eldest prince?"
Shu Jun was shocked after hearing this. This Sun Mouce was indeed not a good person. Having a counselor like him under the eldest prince's command was really better than thousands of troops.
"First of all, I have to admit that if I choose to cooperate with the Fourth Prince, I do have a high possibility of snatching this Prince Consort. But Mr. Sun is afraid that he has forgotten the Fourth Prince's character. A shrewd person like him, no matter what
Whatever you do, you must get the maximum benefit for yourself. If I choose to cooperate with the fourth prince, I can get a lot of benefits now, but what about the future?" Shu Junfeng stared at the other party closely.
After hearing Shu Jun's words, Sun Mouce and the others showed a thoughtful look on their faces. But Shu Jun didn't wait for them to ask again, and said again: "But I chose to cooperate with the eldest prince.
In another situation, the eldest prince is frank and candid.
You are not as cunning as the fourth prince. We cooperate with each other just for profit. You can get benefits from me and I can get benefits from you. This is enough. Mr. Sun, if it were you
,who would you choose to cooperate with?”
Sun Mouce was startled, then smiled apologetically, "Master Shu, don't mind what I just said. It's just that cooperation is not a trivial matter. I don't dare to believe it until I understand Master Shu's intentions."
Shu Jun smiled casually and said: "Mr. Sun has an affair. It's better to talk about this kind of thing openly. After all, it is related to everyone's life and death interests."
At this time, the eldest prince stood up and raised a glass of wine, "Come on, brother, let's have a drink today for our great cause in the future!" After saying this, a group of civil servants and generals under him raised their glasses.
"Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation!" Shu Jun said with a smile and drank it all in one gulp.
What he said just now has completely made Shu Jun the confidant of the eldest prince and others. Therefore, when talking about it, there was less avoidance of suspicion. During the banquet, everyone sighed and made a toast to Shu Jun.
"Brother, the day for the princess's wedding is getting closer, but I wonder if I have any plans?" After a while, Shu Jun put down his wine glass and looked at the eldest prince and asked.
The eldest prince sighed and said: "To be honest, I summoned you here this time to discuss this matter." At this point, the eldest prince's eyes were full of anger, "Ying Yu, this kid is so arrogant, he actually dares to discuss this matter."
I used the banner of recruiting a bride for the imperial sister to expand my strength, but it’s a pity that my father didn’t listen to my advice, otherwise, I would definitely seize the opportunity and knock him down!”
"Brother is right. There are many talented people coming to participate in the princess's recruitment this time. If these people are all recruited by the fourth prince, then the strength of the fourth prince will be greatly improved." Shu
Jun looked worried, "If we don't take some measures, I'm afraid we'll have to fall into a passive situation of being beaten."
"Brother, do you have any good suggestions?" the eldest prince asked nervously.
Shu Jun smiled apologetically, "How to do it depends on you, brother. After all, I still don't know all the forces of the Great Qin Dynasty." After a pause, he added: "But don't worry, brother, once you make a plan here,
I will definitely try my best!”
"Master Shu, brother Luo Jiutian disappeared in the fourth prince's residence?" Sun Mouce suddenly asked.
Shu Jun nodded helplessly, "Yes, he did disappear in the fourth prince's residence." At that moment, he told Luo Jiutian about his night visit to the fourth prince's residence.
After hearing this, everyone frowned. Who is the man in black, and what power group does he represent behind him?
"Master Shu, if you ask me, this is really strange." Sun Mouce frowned and said, "If it wasn't the fourth prince who captured Brother Luo Jiutian, it must have been the mysterious man in black."
"I've thought about it too, but the man in black only appeared once, and I don't know anything about him, and I can't find any clues. Even if I want to check, I don't know where to start," Shu Jun said distressedly.
These days, he has been trying hard to figure out this matter, but in the end he has made little progress.
"If brother Luo Jiutian was really captured by the man in black, then the man in black must have accomplices. Otherwise, how could Master Shu not see brother Luo Jiutian when he met him," Sun Mouce analyzed.
After hearing this, Shu Jun's heart moved. What Sun Mouce said was indeed right. If Luo Jiutian was really captured by the man in black, then the man in black must have helpers. He clearly remembered that when they met that day, only Hei Jiuzhen was captured.
The man in clothes is alone. I didn't expect this.
"Yes, if Jiuzhen is captured by the man in black, then he must have some accomplices!" Shu Jun said excitedly, and things that he had been unable to figure out seemed to have some clues.
"Does Master Shu have any suspicions in his mind?" Sun Mouce is indeed a think-tank type figure, and he can clear up the confusion in just a few words.
Shu Jun pondered for a moment and said: "Apart from the four princes, the most suspicious person is probably the Shadow Dynasty. On the way to the Qin Dynasty, we were also assassinated by the Shadow Dynasty assassins. And there are no traces of my troops.
whereabouts."
This time he came to the Qin Dynasty to participate in the princess's marriage recruitment. Shu Jun didn't get any benefits at all, but instead lost a lot of his subordinates. What made him feel even more useless was that even now he didn't know who the enemy was. This made the always proud man
How could Shu Jun swallow this bad breath!
"This matter cannot be ignored. If the man in black is also a member of the Shadow Dynasty, the situation will be a bit tricky." Sun Mouce looked at the eldest prince, "Lord, I am afraid that he is a member of the dynasty who has infiltrated the Shadow Dynasty."
"There are many people from the Shadow Imperial City who came to participate in the imperial sister's wedding this time. We have known this for a long time." The eldest prince did not see the crux of the problem and asked blankly, "Conspiracy, what do you want to say?"
Sun Mouce frowned, pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "What I am most worried about is that people from the Shadow Imperial City will take advantage of the princess's wedding day to assassinate important figures in our Great Qin Imperial City, such as..." Speaking of
Here, Sun Mouce suddenly stopped and looked at the eldest prince.
The eldest prince was startled and seemed to understand something.
