Good! My stupid son finally rebelled!

hiss!

Concubine Xiao was trembling when she heard this: "Liu Zongguan, are you saying that His Majesty wants me to follow him to Huating?"

"Yes."

Liu Jin smiled and looked particularly happy: "My queen, do you think this is a happy event?"

"This……"

Concubine Xiao pretended to be excited, but secretly cursed him in her heart: "Your Majesty is still Your Majesty after all. Although he is in charge of the imperial capital, he controls everything on the chessboard."

"It looks like he's going to take me on a trip."

"In fact, they are afraid of the Xiao family's power. If the emperor is not in Kyoto during this period of time, the Xiao family will be able to seize half of Daqian if they have the intention of rebellion."

"If you take me with you this time, there won't be this problem."

"Once the Xiao family makes any move, the emperor will immediately choose to take action and destroy them."

"What a great imperial tactic."

"There is nothing fishy to be found."

Concubine Xiao collected her thoughts and said, "Liu Zongguan, who is the other lady?"

"How could I be so lucky to be chosen by His Majesty?"

"Ah."

Chief Steward Liu said mysteriously, "Your Highness, as the Crown Prince's mother, although you have not yet established yourself as the Queen, I know that you are a smart person."

"Plus, you and His Majesty have a tacit understanding, so you can naturally guess who the other lady is."

kindness?

When Concubine Xiao heard Liu Jin say this, she frowned slightly and said, "You mean..."

"Concubine Li?"

Liu Jin laughed: "Your Majesty is worthy of being your Majesty. You immediately understood His Majesty's thoughts."

"I am busy now, so I won't talk to you any more."

Liu Jin apologized: "I hope your Majesty can pack your luggage. I'm afraid your Majesty will leave tonight."

"So fast?"

"My lady, this old servant has no other choice. After all, Your Majesty is very decisive in his actions." Liu Jin smiled bitterly: "As servants, we can only share the worries of our master."

Princess Xiao did not embarrass Liu Jin. She waved her hand gently to indicate that she understood.

After sending Liu Jin away, Concubine Xiao's eyes were uncertain, and Qiuyue was nervous: "Madam, what should we do?"

"It looks like His Majesty is going to take you on a trip."

"In fact, it is hostage-taking."

Qiuyue had been with Concubine Xiao for many years and was already tired of the palace routine. She could see through Emperor Wu's thoughts at a glance.

call!

Concubine Xiao exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Qiuyue, time is running out, go ask my eldest brother to come, and tell him that I have something urgent to talk to him about."

The Duke's Mansion.

Xiao Yuanshan was drinking alone. As a duke, he had never been so humiliated before. It was a pity that he thought that Ling Yu was the current prince, his nephew, and the future of the Xiao family.

I can only keep it to myself.

When he was so angry that he had no place to vent, he saw Qiuyue coming over and said, "My Lord, the Queen has something urgent to see you now."

Xiao Yuanshan was surprised that Concubine Xiao had never been so anxious. He forced a bitter smile and left the residence, feeling a little tipsy.

at the same time.

Li Feiyuan.

Concubine Li also received the news, and there was no joy on her face, only worry.

"Mother." Ling Xu said, "Father is taking you on a tour. Isn't that a good thing? Why are you still so sad?"

"Do not."

Concubine Li shook her head: "This looks like a parade, but in fact it is..."

"Hostage."

Hostage?

Ling Xu was puzzled: "Mother, what do you mean?"

Concubine Li shook her head: "Nowadays, although the prince is the most powerful one in the Daqian prince's situation, he has not yet become the monarch, so everything has a chance."

"Now."

"At this critical juncture, His Majesty took the initiative to propose going out on a tour, and the Crown Prince is the regent."

"It looks like a training for the prince, but in reality it's just a lack of belief."

"After all, throughout history, many princes have died as regents."

"The short-term relaxation and the expansion of power caused many princes to lose themselves during their time as regents and commit acts of rebellion."

"It can be said that the Crown Prince's regent status is simply a test of human nature."

"Passengers."

“Very few.”

Ling Xu shook his head: "Mother, I know this truth, but what does this have to do with you and me?"

"It has nothing to do with your father taking you out for fun."

"Do not."

Concubine Li said: "It seems unrelated, but in fact it is to guard against you."

"Don't you think about it? You are the only one in the court who can fight with the Crown Prince."

hiss.

Ling Xu couldn't help but be surprised, and even felt a tingling sensation on his back: "Father has planned this for such a long time."

"All right."

Concubine Li said: "Don't think too much, the most urgent thing now is to protect yourself first."

"This time we are in Huating."

"I just want to see what your majesty wants to do."

"And the Sixth Prince's movements."

Click.

When Concubine Li thought of the Sixth Prince, her face immediately turned red. The sound of the collision was still ringing in her ears. The powerful impact made her heart intoxicated and obsessed.

Ling Xu was stunned: "Mother, what's wrong with you?"

"what?"

Concubine Li was a little nervous: "It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, you have to remember that during my absence, you must keep a low profile and not get too close to the prince."

"You can't form cliques in the court either."

"otherwise."

"It's all over."

Concubine Li saw through everything. Ling Xu nodded: "Mother, I won't do anything rash."

"So good."

Concubine Li waved her hand: "Okay, I have to pack my things too. After all, if the emperor gives the order, I will leave Kyoto."

late at night.

Inside the Daqian Palace, three carriages, escorted by a team of elite soldiers in black armor, slowly moved out of the city gate. Although they acted in a low profile, there were still a pair of eyes hidden in the darkness.

Watching everything.

It was none other than Zhao Kun.

"I didn't expect the Emperor to take action so soon?" Zhao Kun was a little nervous: "Although His Highness has a plan, he probably didn't expect that the Emperor would take action at this time."

"Come to Huating in person?"

"Even menacing?"

"What should I do?"

"No, I must pass this message on, otherwise His Highness will be in a passive position."

Because Zhao Kun has to plan the liquor industry for Ling Tian, ​​he has no chance to leave the imperial capital this time, but at the same time he has an important mission, which is the imperial capital's dark web.

Who in the entire Kyoto doesn't know about Zhao Kun's notoriety, and who hasn't been to a brothel?

Although Liu Shiyan used her connections to set up the prototype of the dark web, more of it was...

Zhao Kun perfected it.

In addition to these, there is another task, which is that if there is any change, Li Yulan and others will be taken out of the imperial capital as soon as possible to break the only way for Emperor Wu to restrict Ling Tian.

Zhao Kun slowly disappeared into the night. At this time, in the carriage, Emperor Wu was sipping tea, looking at the scenery outside the carriage, and his heart was filled with anticipation.

"Lao Liu."

"My silly son."

"Father is here to see you."
