603. Chapter 603 Changes in the situation: Xiqi's trip [5]
Mu Jieyu and Xuanyuan Zhiqi silently left the tent under the smiling gaze of Princess Chengyi. After leaving the tent, Xuanyuan Zhiqi immediately made tight arrangements around the tent.
"The people around my aunt are not simple." After walking out of the camp, Mu Jieyu said softly.
"Those are the people who are close to the current king of Xiqi." Xuanyuan Zhiqi walked to Mu Jieyu's side and looked into the distance.
"Why did my aunt support the second prince to ascend to the throne?" Mu Jieyu asked the doubts in his heart.
As early as before Mu Jieyu and Xuanyuan Zhiqi left Hanyang Pass, they received news that the eldest prince of Xiqi wanted to murder the queen and forged the succession decree. The matter was exposed and he was beheaded in the queen's palace by the second prince. And that
The second prince also ascended the throne half a month ago.
Things happened so fast that Mu Jieyu didn't expect it. Before Chunyu Ao, who was ready to make a move, the overall situation of Xiqi was decided. According to Mu Jieyu's speculation, no matter how powerful the two princes were,
No matter how disparate the weak are, in order to create chaos, Chunyu Ao must spare no effort to help the weaker party and obtain a fisherman's benefit from it.
However, there seems to be another hand invisibly, a hand that can conceal the truth from the sky and the sea, and is behind the scenes. The owner of that hand got the news of the death of the leader of the Xiqi Kingdom at the first time, so he moved faster than the one who was guarding the Xiqi nest.
Chun Yu'ao's Chun Yu'ao nipped all Chun Yu'ao's arrangements in the bud at lightning speed.
What puzzled Mu Jieyu the most was that this person was able to make Princess Chengyi abandon the eldest prince she had raised since childhood and support the second prince. From this, we can understand how powerful and capable this person is. His hands and eyes
Who could be the person who reaches the sky? Mu Jieyu could not imagine it at all.
"The eldest prince was raised by his aunt since he was a child. He and his aunt are only five years apart. When my aunt married the Lord of Xiqi, she was a young girl in her prime. At that time, the eldest prince was no longer a child." Xuanyuan Zhiqi told Mu in a very vague way.
Explanation.
When Mu Jieyu heard this, his moon-like eyes suddenly widened: "You mean...the eldest prince treats his aunt..."
Xuanyuan Zhiqi nodded lightly: "The eldest prince is a very ambitious and strategic person. If we let him get the throne, if we want to take my aunt back, we must destroy the entire Xiqi."
"As you said, how can the eldest prince be such an easy person to deal with? Moreover, his aunt has raised him for so many years, so there must be a mother-son relationship, so why does the eldest prince...?" Mu Jieyu frowned and looked at Xuanyuan Zhiqi.
, "I feel like someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes. I don't know why he wants to facilitate this matter so smoothly. On the surface, he seems to be helping us, but I feel faintly uneasy in my heart... That person's power is already powerful.
You can control the entire Xiqi Kingdom in your hands."
Xuanyuan Zhiqi suddenly fell silent. The gentle breeze blew through the soft green grass and blew into his face, lifting up his black hair. After a long time, he said almost inaudibly: "Minmin, the person behind the scenes you mentioned may be
…”
Xuanyuan Zhiqi's voice was originally very soft, and the last two words were even broken, making Mu Jieyu a little anxious: "Who do you suspect?"
Xuanyuan Zhiqi turned her head to meet Mu Jieyu's eager eyes, moved her lips, and finally shook her head: "Everything is just my guess, there is no evidence."
The thoughtful Mu Jieyu couldn't figure out that Xuanyuan Zhiqi wouldn't tell her who he was suspicious of, so he didn't ask any more questions.
