After the early morning court session of Western Chu State.

The envoys of Beiyue also left the capital of Xichu and returned to their country. For some unknown reason, they left in a very low profile.

The third prince Bei Jinqi left with Liang Yisan, the princess of the Southern Chu Kingdom, with whom he had had a relationship and had to marry.

What’s strange is that the Prince of Yan, Yan Ruihan, and Princess Leyi, Yan Mingxi, who came with them this time, showed no signs of any marriage alliance.

The carriages for this trip left the gate of Kyoto, and several carriages were closely guarded by guards. In a carriage at the back sat Yan Ruihan, the prince of the King of Yan, and Qi Yanzan, the prince of the Qi Yan family, a noble family of the Northern Yue Kingdom who had never been seen before.

"General, the King of Qi and the King of Guannan have joined forces according to your orders. You can start the action when you return."

"This idiot, he has got the powerful weapon, the fireball, given by King Guannan, how can he still hold back?" There was a hint of murderous intent in Yan Ruihan's smiling eyes.

"It's stupid. I'm afraid he still fantasizes that you, Prince Yan, support him..."

"Hahaha, let him fight the prince, and both of them will suffer. Then we can..."

"General, you are still better. Fortunately, we have also contacted Old Man Xue this time."

"Well, are those missing weapons and horses still missing?"

"General, I haven't found anything. But I heard that Old Man Xue's house was looted overnight, and we still haven't figured out who did it."

"Well, where did Bei Jinyan go this time?"

"Bei Jinyan went to the direction of East Qin."

"Well, I don't think he can accomplish anything great. As long as he doesn't go back to Beiyue, we don't have to worry about it."

"Yes"

……

The seventh prince Bei Jinyan was indeed missing from the returning team of envoys from the Beiyue Kingdom this time.

At this time, Bei Jinyan, who was being missed by Prince Yan, was sitting in an inconspicuous teahouse in Kyoto with Qin Lingang, the Crown Prince of Dongqin, drinking tea and chatting.

Outside the window, the Beiyue Kingdom delegation was slowly heading towards the city gate of Kyoto.

"Aren't you all leaving? Why did you ask me to come here? Aren't you afraid of attracting their attention?" Qin Lin just took a sip of tea and said while looking at the team slowly leaving the city outside the window.

"Brother, don't worry. I left Kyoto yesterday. Everyone knows that I don't want to go back to Beiyue." The handsome man, still wearing red and a little childish, responded.

"You are quite smart. Why did you come back today? Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

"Brother, you guessed it right. Brother! Brother! I'm here to ask for your help."

"You! Hey! Tell me what's the matter?" No one expected that Bei Jinyan's senior brother was the prince of Dongqin Kingdom, and the two seemed to have a very good relationship.

"Brother, this time we are dealing with serious matters. Please help me introduce you to Prince Jing."

"Oh, is there something you want to talk to Chu Chenjing about?"

"Alas, Senior Brother, when I went back this time, I saw that my father's health was getting worse. It would be difficult for the Crown Prince to take that position, but it would be difficult to deal with Yan Hutu. So, I wanted to help him."

"Well, you finally got it. Bei Jinheng is a good person. If he takes that position, he will be a wise ruler. Yan Hutu and his son are indeed difficult to deal with."

"Alas, my father's health has been getting worse over the years, which really gave them the opportunity to become arrogant. He launched a war with the Western Chu State, which also made those court officials believe that the Northern Mountain State cannot do without him."

"So what's going on recently? Didn't your two countries also cease fire?" Qin Lin had only traveled through time a few months ago, and had only recently figured out the situation of his original body. He was not very clear about the situation outside.

"Some time ago, I don't know what happened on the border. I heard that some weapons, horses and food were lost there. Because of this, they suddenly stopped attacking the Western Chu State."

"Oh? Then why did they all come to Xichu for no reason this time?"

"Yan Hutu heard that Southern Chu and your Eastern Qin had come to Western Chu, and was afraid that you would join forces, so he had to get involved. He was also thinking about whether the lost weapons were taken away by Western Chu, and he came to investigate."

"They left so soon. I'm afraid that if they go back, they will..."

"Brother Crown Prince is very kind to me, so I want to help him. I hope that Senior Brother can help and introduce me to Prince Jing."

"it is good."

Yuelai Inn

A woman was sitting in Lai Gong's room. "Master, my father said that the crown prince seems to be dying. Can the second prince Chu Chenyu really become the crown prince?"

"Xiu'er, you have to remember, it's not about who will become the crown prince! But you have to know who is easier to control. We want him to be the crown prince." The old man Lai Gong looked at her with a poisonous look in his eyes.

"Got it, Master. It seems that Chu Chenjing is easier to control."

"Hmm? Tell me how to control it."

"Master, Chu Chenyu has Xue Xiang behind him, who is very powerful. I will not be able to control him in the future. But Chu Chenjing is different. The crown prince is dead, and there is no one in the queen's family to support him. If he wants to find a backer, my father must be..."

"Xiu'er, I am very pleased that you are getting smarter and smarter, but your cunning father will not easily take sides."

"Master, my father will stand on my side."

"As long as you have thought it through, your teacher will help you." Haha, you are my daughter.

"Master, you should be good to Qing Xiu. After Second Senior Brother and the others leave, you can move into the house on West Street."

"Well, Xiu'er, have you figured out what to do?"

"Master, Qingxiu has made up my mind. I want to become the Princess of Jing."

"Well, if you want to become Princess Jing, then attack Princess Jing and don't touch anyone else."

"Yes, I won't do anything to Hong Minyan. I want to watch her be heartbroken because of Chu Chenxiao's death."

There was a vicious light in Liu Qingxiu's eyes.

"Master, are we going to start now?"

"Now is a good opportunity. If the Princess of Jing dies, and then the Crown Prince Chu Chenxiao dies, it will be a huge blow to the Prince of Jing. And with you by his side, comforting and caring for him, he will definitely have special feelings for you. If something happens between you and him again..., he will feel very guilty and will definitely marry you. If you give him some medicine..., then he will be completely devoted to you in the future. Your father will also become his backer for you."

"Well...but Master, every time Princess Jing leaves the palace, Prince Jing follows behind her."

"Don't worry about this. I will help you. I will also arrange for Chu Chenyu to take the blame. Even if the Princess of Jing dies, the Ouyang family will never support Chu Chenyu. They will still support Prince Jing."

"Thank you, Master, for everything you have done for me. I will definitely be filial to you in the future."

"Well, this time both Prime Minister Xue and Prince Guannan want to fight. If they both suffer losses, the old emperor will not be able to hold on for much longer. Xiu'er, it's just a matter of time before you take that position."

"Master, is that true?" Like father, like daughter.

"Master, then you asked Senior Brother to join forces with King Yu?"

"That's only temporary. Your brother won't lose anything."
