The daughter of the first wife is a little fierce: the war god prince loves her to the sky
Chapter 161: Sudden Surrender
Yu Fengyang thought for a moment and then shook his head.
"Princess, Prince Fan wants to see you," a voice came from outside the door.
Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows, "Please come in"
Fan Ziming, dressed in white, walked in leisurely and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Princess. Brother Yu is here too."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Prince Fan, there is no need to be so polite."
Lanxiang walked in with some tea and snacks, and Fan Ziming found a seat not far from Feng Yang without hesitation.
Yu Fengyang laughed and said, "Brother Fan, why are you here today?" Shouldn't everyone in the noble family be in danger now?
Fan Ziming smiled and said, "Princess, Ziming came here today to ask for a favor."
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "The situation in Prince Yan's Mansion probably can't help the prince."
Fan Ziming lowered his eyes, "Everyone knows how the new emperor got his position."
Bai Chuxiao became interested. "Oh? If Prince Fan's words were heard by the new emperor, it would be disrespectful..."
Fan Ziming didn't care at all and said with a smile, "Princess, Ziming is getting straight to the point. Compared to the King of Qi, I am more optimistic about the King of Yan."
Yu Fengyang touched his nose. It was strange that Chu Tianze had supporters.
"Brother Fan, are you inciting the Prince of Yan's Mansion to rebel?"
Fan Ziming chuckled, "Haha, if there wasn't a war going on in the northwest, how could the King of Qi and the current Regent, the Prince of Yingchuan, have taken the Imperial City so easily? What's more, the Duke of Zhenguo mobilized the Northern Army to besiege the Imperial City without authorization, and he didn't care about the safety of the border. Ziming doesn't think such a person would be a good emperor."
Bai Chuxiao's eyes showed admiration. Although she had only met Fan Ziming briefly before, his conversation and knowledge were extraordinary.
"But now that the new emperor has been established, it is meaningless for you to say these things. You have also seen that it is not easy for us to leave the capital now."
Fan Ziming raised his eyebrows, "If my guess is correct, the princess should be able to leave Beijing today."
Yu Fengyang was slightly surprised, "Brother Fan, how do you see that?"
Fan Ziming smiled and said, "The corpse placed at the gate of Prince Yan's mansion yesterday made the new emperor send people here. The princess must have some bargaining chips in her hands. What can threaten the new emperor? Ziming guessed that maybe the princess had the last will of the late emperor... Princess, Ziming's guess is correct."
The Fan family is worthy of being the head of the aristocratic families, and Fan Ziming, the prince, is indeed not a title for nothing. Bai Chuxiao glanced at Yu Fengyang: We are both princes, look at his brain!
Yu Fengyang touched his nose. He is no longer the prince, okay? Besides, he is a military general, and he is not on the same path as Fan Ziming!
Bai Chuxiao did not deny it. Yu Fengyang picked up the teacup and said leisurely, "I am curious about how Brother Fan guessed it."
Bai Chuxiao also looked at him with interest. Fan Ziming smiled faintly and said, "The princess returned to the capital at the wrong time. Ziming guessed that maybe the princess had noticed the difference between Yunzhou and the capital early, and secretly returned to the palace to see the late emperor. Since the late emperor could send the princess to Yunzhou, he must have trusted her very much. It's not surprising that he entrusted the will to the princess he saw last, but..."
Bai Chuxiao was somewhat interested. Fan Ziming could actually guess so accurately based on just a few clues. "Your Highness, please tell me what's going on."
There was a hint of doubt in Fan Ziming's eyes. "But, if the princess really met His Majesty, this shouldn't be the result... At least this result wouldn't come so quickly."
Yu Fengyang was also a little puzzled. The princess only said that the late emperor was angry to death, but that shouldn't be the case. However, the princess refused to say anything, so he had no choice. Perhaps there were other secrets...
Bai Chuxiao concealed her expression. Fan Ziming's inferences were all correct, but Chu Tianze's life experience could not be told to outsiders. "It was indeed an accident. I was unable to save the late emperor's life."
Seeing that she had no intention of explaining the reason, Fan Ziming stopped asking and said with a smile, "Although the new emperor has been decided, Ziming still prefers the Prince of Yan and the Princess."
Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly and said, "Sir, why don't you tell me the purpose of your visit first?"
Fan Ziming stood up and bowed slightly, saying seriously, "Ziming is willing to be the counselor of the prince and princess, please take me in."
Bai Chuxiao chuckled, "It would be a waste of talent for Prince Fan to be a counselor. Now that he is too busy with the war in the northwest, the Prince of Yan's Mansion may not be worthy of the Prince's attention."
Fan Ziming slowly said, "Whatever decision the Prince of Yan's Mansion makes, Ziming is willing to follow it."
Bai Chuxiao raised an eyebrow, "What does the prince want?"
Fan Ziming said frankly, "Although the Fan family is the head of the aristocratic family, it is still severely suppressed. Ziming's move is also to find a way out for the Fan family, and also for himself..."
Bai Chuxiao stared at the elegant young man in white in front of her and smiled, "Your Highness, is it your own idea to come here today, or is it Lord Fan's idea?"
Fan Ziming smiled gently, "It's Ziming's idea, but the Fan family all supports it."
Bai Chuxiao looked puzzled, "How can you be sure that I can make the decision, my lord?"
Yu Fengyang secretly pulled the corner of his mouth. Chu Tianze is a henpecked husband. How dare he have any objection to the decision you made? You are the one who has the final say in this palace...
Fan Ziming spoke slowly, "Ziming believes in the princess."
Bai Chuxiao smiled, "In that case, this concubine and the prince will wait for good news from Master Fan in the northwest."
Fan Ziming put on a respectful look and said, "Thank you, Princess."
It was not until the afternoon that Chu Tianling finally sent someone to announce Bai Chuxiao's entry into the palace.
Today is the last day of the late emperor's funeral. The palace is still in a state of desolation. In the imperial study, some of the familiar eunuchs are no longer there.
Chu Tianling looked down at the woman who came in, and said without further ado, "I will let you leave the capital, how do you hand over the will to me?"
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "Once we reach Qingzhou, I will tell Your Majesty the location of the will, and Your Majesty can go and get it yourself."
Chu Tianling said coldly, "Bai Chuxiao, do you think I'm easy to talk to? I said I was only leaving Beijing, but now I'm going to Qingzhou. Besides, who knows if the position you gave me is fake?"
Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly and said, "There are hundreds of thousands of troops under the prince's command outside the capital, how can I be at ease? The contents of the will will certainly not let the prince suffer any loss."
Chu Tianling sneered, "I will send the Minister of Rites to escort you to Qingzhou. If the Minister of Rites fails to retrieve the will, you will have deceived me. The entire Kong family will be killed, and all those who have had any friendship with you in the capital will die."
Bai Chuxiao's eyes were slightly cold. "King Qi killed innocent people indiscriminately. Aren't you afraid of being labeled as a tyrant? Besides, you should know that these people you mentioned cannot threaten us."
Chu Tianling sneered, "You'd better not care about these people. You know how I got the throne. I don't mind taking a few more lives."
Bai Chuxiao said coldly, "The will is of course true, but it will take time to get back from Qingzhou to the place I mentioned. If during this period, the prince sends troops to hunt us down, the will will also be announced to the world."
Chu Tianling's face was grim, and he said sternly, "The people who escorted you are waiting at the city gate. Take the people from Prince Yan's Mansion and get out of here immediately!"
