Tangning was led by the young general into King Xin's study, then closed the door and walked out.
King Xin sat at the desk, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
Tang Ning looked around and saw that there was no place to hide anyone in King Xin's study. Even if he accidentally dropped the cup, the Three Hundred Swordsman wouldn't jump out of the darkness.
"Sit." King Xin pointed to the seat opposite him.
Tangning walked over and sat on the chair.
King Xin put down his teacup, looked at him, and asked: "I don't even know that when I was born, there was a dragon hovering on top of the palace. How did you know that?"
Tangning looked confused and asked, "What is the prince talking about?"
King Xin waved his hand and said: "There are no outsiders here, so you don't have to pretend."
Tangning shook her head and said, "I don't know what the prince is talking about..."
"You understand." King Xin looked at him for a long time, then stood up and said, "I don't want to beat around the bush with you anymore, I need you to do something."
Tangning looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
King Xin said: "The prince will take action in three days. At that time, I need to borrow one of your people."
Tangning asked in surprise: "How do you know that the prince will take action in three days?"
King Xin did not answer. Tangning looked at him, pondered for a moment, and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
…
Half an hour later, Tang Ning walked out of King Xin's study.
He walked out of the yard, and Li Tianlan, who had been waiting for a long time, came over and asked, "What did your father say to you?"
Tangning thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty and I talked about calligraphy and cursive writing..."
Li Tianlan looked at him calmly and said, "I'll give you another chance."
"Actually, it's not a big deal..." Tangning looked directly into her eyes and said, "It's just about discussing the rebellion..."
In fact, it is not considered a rebellion, it is just that if the prince wants to rebel, he should cooperate with him to make it happen.
After a while, Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "I want to stay in the city."
"No, you have to protect the princess just in case." Tangning shook her head firmly and said, "You have other tasks."
"no."
"obedient."
Tangning looked at her and said, "I feel at ease when you are here."
Li Tianlan clenched his fists, then relaxed his fists for a long time, nodded and said: "Okay."
Tangning breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her and comforted her, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
He originally thought that King Xin was just a salty fish who was getting by, but he didn't expect that he had plans and arrangements. This kind of old fox said one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes, so he must be more careful in the future.
Although King Xin's plans and preparations were comprehensive, Tang Ning still wanted to send Zhao Man out first just in case.
In the Splendid Palace, Zhao Man looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "Why do you want me to leave?"
Tang Ning helped her look at her eyebrows and said, "It's not safe here these days. I will arrange for you to go out of the city for a while."
Zhao Man looked at him and asked, "What about you?"
"I still have important things to do. I will bring you back in a few days."
"No." Zhao Man stood up and said, "Wherever you are, I will be there."
"Be obedient." Tangning pressed her shoulders and asked her to sit down, and said, "We can go back when this matter is over."
Zhao Man looked into his eyes and said seriously: "Even if I don't go back, I don't want you to take any risks."
"I know, I know..." Tangning pinched her nose and said, "I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
"High five!"
"High five."
Snapped!
Tangning stretched out her hand and touched her palm.
…
In a certain hall of the palace, the Emperor of Chu was lying on the couch, coughing constantly. An imperial doctor knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "I am incompetent..."
Emperor Chu waved his hand and said, "Go down."
After the imperial doctor bowed his head and retreated, a eunuch walked in and whispered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prince Xin is here and is waiting outside."
Emperor Chu waved to the side, and two eunuchs came over and helped him lean against the bedside.
After his breathing stabilized, he waved his hand and said, "Xuan."
King Xin walked in slowly, looked at Emperor Chu who was leaning on the bedside, and said, "Brother, it's better to lie down, it will save you some effort."
"There will be plenty of time to lie down in the future." Emperor Chu said in a hoarse voice, paused for a moment, and then asked: "How is the investigation of General Xu's assassination case going?"
King Xin shook his head and said: "The murderer didn't leave any clues. There is no clue yet."
Emperor Chu said slowly: "Although he is not from Chu, he is capable. We must find the murderer."
King Xin nodded and said, "I will let people keep an eye on this case."
Emperor Chu paused for a while and then said: "In three days, it will be the anniversary of the death of my mother. Unfortunately, my body is unable to worship her. When I go to hell, I can spend time with him. In three days' time,
I leave the forbidden code to you."
King Xin said: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely arrange the ceremony for my mother and queen."
Emperor Chu looked at him and suddenly said: "I really miss the days when I governed the world with you. If there were another ten years, we would no longer have to pay tribute to Chen Guo and eliminate the threats on the grassland... It's a pity, I'm watching.
This day will not come yet.”
When he said this, a trace of red appeared on his face, and even his breathing became much faster.
King Xin stepped forward and said, "Brother, don't be excited."
The redness on Emperor Chu's face gradually faded away, his breathing gradually became calmer, and he sighed: "God has mistaken me..."
After a moment, he looked at King Xin again and said: "The Kingdom of Chu is in your hands, and it may last longer."
King Xin cupped his hands and said: "Brother Huang knows that I have no intention of doing this..."
"I know." Emperor Chu nodded and said softly: "I know..."
King Xin took two steps back and said, "Brother, please have a good rest. We need to prepare for the Queen Mother's ceremony. I will leave first."
After King Xin walked out for a long time, Emperor Chu looked at the empty space and murmured: "If the prince has one-tenth of his power, I can go there with peace of mind..."
…
Xinwangfu.
A luxurious carriage stopped at the door of the mansion. Tangning stood beside the carriage, looked at Li Tianlan and said, "Be careful along the way. I will ask you to take care of her."
Li Tianlan looked back at the head that poked out of the carriage, nodded and said, "Be careful."
King Xin stood beside him, watching the carriage go away, and said: "You are so brave, you actually have an affair with the princess you are married to, even if you have several heads, you can't cut it off."
Tang Ning automatically ignored these words of King Xin. She wanted to accuse him, so there was no reason to hesitate. He could feel that King Xin looked at him with colored glasses. Not only did he feel that he had an affair with the princess, he even felt that he and his
My baby daughter has an affair...
Tang Ning looked at him and confirmed, "Your Majesty is so sure that the Crown Prince will take action in three days?"
King Xin looked at him and said calmly: "If you hadn't spread rumors everywhere and pressed you every step of the way, he wouldn't be so anxious!"
In fact, Tangning herself did not expect that things would develop so smoothly.
Ren Pingsheng prepared a package plan. Rumors were only the first step. In addition, he found someone to write out the form of persuasion. Even before the slogan "Great Chu is prosperous, respect the King of Trust" was shouted out, the people were already in a state of excitement.
.
It seemed that besides them, there was a pair of invisible hands pushing all of this. At first, Tangning thought it was King Xin himself, but now it seemed that it wasn't.
Prince's Mansion.
The prince looked at a counselor and asked, "How sure are you?"
The counselor said: "Prince Xin's Mansion is heavily guarded, and it is adjacent to the City Patrol Division. No matter how many people he brings, he cannot break through it. But as long as King Xin leaves the palace and the security force is weak, it will be much easier for His Highness to take action. It will be much easier to get rid of Xin.
King, no one can compete with His Highness."
The prince frowned and asked, "When will he leave the palace?"
"The other times are not certain." The counselor looked at him, his eyes flashed, and said slowly: "But three days later, at the ceremony of the late Queen Mother, King Xin will definitely appear... At that time, His Highness will
