Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 302 The storm is rising

New Year's Eve is finally over.

Aunt Wen took the act of shooting Song Yan in the street to court, but Yun Zheng produced evidence that Song Yan poisoned Song Wan.

He said that he was worried that she would escape from Prince Huai's Palace in order to do evil again and have ulterior motives, so he had to take action in desperation.

However, both the Dali Temple and the Clan Court simply let the matter go, saying that Song Yan was now a member of Prince Huai's Mansion after all, and there was solid evidence that she had murdered the Crown Prince's Consort, so she deserved the punishment.

Although the prince was a little impulsive, there was a reason for it.

Song Wan was not surprised by this result.

During the two months that Jun Jiuchen was not involved in state affairs, King Huai's influence in the court grew increasingly stronger.

No one would be willing to offend him at this time because of a little concubine's daughter of the prime minister's family.

And on the fifth day of the first lunar month, news suddenly arrived from the border...

Mobei suddenly ignored the peace treaty signed at the beginning of the year.

The army was raised.

The reason was that Princess Jiahe, whom Tianqi sent to marry, was actually a spy.

On the day of her marriage to Helian Qi, she attempted to assassinate the Khan of Mobei and was killed on the spot.

The Khan of Mobei was poisoned and fell into a coma. Prince Helian, eager to avenge his father, immediately led an army to attack...

When this news reached the Regent's Palace, Jun Jiuchen was leaning leisurely on the couch by the window, chin supported by one hand.

The slender fingers holding the chess pieces tapped the tabletop from time to time, but his eyes were always following Song Wan who was playing guessing games with two girls.

Because there was no fresh grass in winter, the three of them used silk flowers instead, hiding them in their sleeves to guess the variety and color, and gambled on some small items while laughing and joking, pretending that life was peaceful.

While playing, Luluo caught a glimpse of the prince who was looking at her young lady not far away. She hurriedly and calmly tugged at Hongchang's sleeve. Hongchang could only helplessly signal her to restrain herself with her eyes.

After hearing Suifeng's report, the two of them retreated tactfully.

Song Wan also put down the silk flower in her hand and sat down next to Jun Jiuchen.

"Tianqi no longer has a place for Shen Jiahe. Mobei is her only escape route. She finally got her wish, so why would she suddenly try to assassinate the Khan of Mobei?"

"It seems that the people who assassinated my father were indeed the result of collusion between Prince Huai and Helian Qi. Shen Jiahe was just an excuse for them to start a rebellion."

Jun Jiuchen thought more than Song Wan.

He held Song Wan's hand very naturally, played with it in his palm, and gently rubbed her palm with his fingertips.

"I'm afraid it's more than just an excuse."

"The battle for the crown prince in Mobei is more intense and direct than in Shangjing."

"Helian Qi's visit to the capital not only jeopardized Mobei's plan to use Yao Peng to infiltrate the courts of various countries, but also resulted in the loss of the Hetao region. Upon his return, he will likely be unable to explain himself to his father, the Khan, and his position will be threatened."

"That's why I took a gamble and came up with a plan that kills two birds with one stone."

"However, the Mobei Army was already on guard. If Helian Qi dared to attack, it would not be so easy to escape unscathed..."

Song Wan immediately understood what Jun Jiuchen meant.

That matter of the Mobei Khan being poisoned...

It may not be false.

Shen Jiahe was not only an excuse for the uprising in Mobei, but also a victim of the game between father and son.

She wanted to gamble on her future with the child in her womb.

But how could a man who was willing to kill his own father for the throne have pity on an unborn child...

So, she lost the bet.

Thinking of this, Song Wan looked at Jun Jiuchen.

"Prince Huai has asked Helian Qi to contain the Mobei Army. The next step should be to instigate Su Jinyue to deal with you."

“I just don’t know what means they will use.”

Jun Jiuchen didn't seem to be worried about this, he just looked at Song Wan with a smile in his eyes.

"To strike the snake at its weakest point, you must strike it at my weak spot. Wan'er, you must stay by my side obediently these days..."

Song Wan just glanced at her.

"In that case, since the bracelet is now in our hands, shouldn't we spread the word to Prince Huai's Mansion and give him a final push..."

Jun Jiuchen's heart was moved by her look, and he reached out and pulled her into his arms.

"good."

"But...it's not enough."

"Tomorrow, I will submit a memorial requesting permission to lead troops out of the capital to fight against Mobei..."

As he spoke, his thumb gently stroked Song Wan's lips, and his eyes gradually became deeper.

Song Wan: ...

……

Jun Jiuchen moved very quickly.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Prince Huai, upon learning that Jun Jiuchen had found Queen Wei's "relics", hurried into the palace.

After staying in the Cining Palace for half an hour, Su Jinyue looked at King Huai who was kneeling down, with struggle in her eyes.

But King Huai's voice continued to reach her ears.

"Empress Dowager, the timing of this Mobei invasion is extremely strange, and Shen Jiahe was chosen by Jun Jiuchen as the marriage partner... I'm afraid Jun Jiuchen may have had some influence on this."

"He must have known that the Queen Mother no longer trusted him, so he deliberately stirred up trouble so that he could use this opportunity to request to leave the capital. If he were really allowed to leave the capital with the tiger talisman, everything would be too late!"

Su Jinyue, however, just frowned, her heart was beating fast, and she couldn't make up her mind.

Although she had already had an unpleasant argument with Jun Jiuchen.

But the idea proposed by King Huai was too risky...

She really felt sympathetic...
