Rebirth of the Pampered Little Princess

Chapter 129 The Battle for Imperial Power
Sacrifice star: "..."

Xue Li: "..."

"Miss, are you...are you okay?" Ji Xing was dumbfounded as he held the empty bowl.

"It's okay, I'm just thirsty. You can go down and rest first." Wei Yunxue pulled the brocade handkerchief and wiped his mouth.

"...Yes." He held the bowl and retreated like a wandering spirit from the Star Sacrifice.

"Thirsty?" Xue Li's gaze on her face was very unclear, and there was a strong sense of suspicion in the tone of just two words.

"Yeah!" Wei Yunxue nodded without any hint of guilt.

Xue Li raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing her nonsense.

Wei Yunxue pulled his arm and rubbed his arm coquettishly: "I'm really just thirsty."

Xue Li turned sideways and pinched her little face, but seriously didn't ask. Wei Yunxue breathed a sigh of relief.

It was not too late, and it was still early to rest. Xue Li sat next to her, took a small wooden comb, and helped her smooth the long hair that was messed up by playing in the snow, while chatting with her. Touching the sky.

but--

The more Wei Yunxue listened to his tone, the more he felt that something was wrong. Why did she feel that his tone was more and more like when she was talking?
"Would you like some midnight snack?"

"I heard that this is a snack brought as tribute from a small country in the Western Region. It looks quite delicious."

"..." Wei Yunxue looked at the sky speechlessly when she heard these soft suffixes like "ah" and "it".

"Would you like me to get you some?"

Wei Yunxue stroked her forehead and spoke tactfully: "...Xue Li."

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Wei Yunxue was even more helpless: "...I hope you can understand that when I talk to you like this, I want to be coquettish with you, not for you to learn from me."

Alas - this worrying little beauty of hers.

The heavy snow finally stopped and the weather gradually cleared up. The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division sent a large number of troops to clear the snow. The roads became smooth again and the city gates that had been closed for four days were also opened.

Early in the morning, Wei Yunxue received a shocking news from the Duke of Wei's palace. The Marquis of Beijun, who lived far away in Beijun, was coming to settle in Beijing.

Speaking of Beijun Marquis, he is also a vassal king, a local overlord, and holds great power. However, he has always lived in Beijun and rarely comes to Beijing. In such a delicate situation, what does it mean for him to move his family to Lin'an?
Is the battle for the throne in this life going to kick off in advance? Wei Yunxue recalled the memories of her previous life in her mind. She didn't pay much attention to this matter before, so the memory of the crown prince was not too much. Many, I just remember that Zhou Yi won this war without gunpowder in the end.

Nowadays, the princes under Emperor Qingwen's knees have all grown up and been crowned kings. However, the position of the prince has not yet been determined. The Marquis of Beijun is an old friend of the second prince Zhou You's maternal family, the Pingyuan Marquis Zhao family. He will definitely join the faction of Prince Jing. Yes, at this delicate juncture, his move to Beijing will undoubtedly disrupt the existing pattern.

Wei Yunxue frowned and thought about her impression of the royal family in her mind. Counting the princes of the royal family, the ones most likely to sit on the throne are King Jing Zhou You, King Yu Zhou Yi and King Heng Zhou Che. The other princes either had low-status mothers or were too young.

The second prince Zhou You was born to Concubine Rong Zhao Ronger. As the eldest daughter of the Zhao family of Pingyuanhou, Zhao Ronger had the support of Pingyuanhou Mansion behind him. Coupled with the help of Beijunhou, his strength should not be underestimated. .
