The whole family travels through the book, the plot is broken but the characters are not

Qin Gang took the sword and sighed, "What a fine sword! It's a shame we don't have tungsten in Xiqi. Strange, why are there patterns on this sword?"

"What pattern?" Qu Yi walked forward pretentiously.

"Here, Mr. Qu, please look."

Upon hearing this, Dalin also came forward and said, "Boss Qin, do you think this pattern looks familiar?"

Qin Gang also looked thoughtful.

The third prince was surprised to hear this, and after his wound was bandaged, he asked Qin Gang to hand him the sword to have a look.

"Third Prince, this is it."

The third prince followed Qin Gang's finger and saw the pattern, his face changed.

The descendants of the Beirong royal family all have more or less Meng family blood.

They also knew the relationship between the Meng family and Nanlai.

Princes must understand the Nanlai language and traditions.

"Nan Muyang!"

The third prince's vicious voice puzzled others.

"What Nan Muyang?" Qu Yi asked.

The third prince glanced at Qin Gang and others, and saw that the guards who had gone out to chase the masked man had returned, so he felt relieved.

I just heard that those masked men are good at Qinggong, so I couldn’t catch them. The third prince thought to himself that it was true.

"Thanks to the three of you for your help today, don't worry, this prince will definitely reward you handsomely."

Qin Gang repeatedly said he dared not.

"Rong Xu, send Qin Boss back to rest. Tomorrow morning, pick out some good things from the warehouse and send them over."

The housekeeper Rong Xu understood what he meant and sent all the guards, doctors and maids out, leaving only the third prince and Qu Yi in the room.

"Mr. Qu, it's the Meng family who wants to harm me."

Qu Yi looked as if he had expected it: "Alas, didn't the Third Prince think of this a long time ago? If we were just to guard against those princes, we wouldn't have to go around recruiting good fighters.

But I really can't understand. Third Prince, you also have some blood of the Meng family, why do they insist on supporting the Ninth Prince's Mansion?"

The Third Prince laughed in anger, "My Meng bloodline only comes from my father. My mother has no connection to the Meng family at all, but the Ninth Prince's mother is a daughter of the Meng family. How can I compare to him?"

In the eyes of the Meng family, I am not even as good as Lao Jiu's son! They would rather kill me than support Lao Jiu's son. "

Qu Yi's face was filled with indignation and confusion: "But the princess is also a daughter of the Meng family, and the eldest son also has Meng family blood. Why should they...ah?"

In Beirong, only a prince who marries a girl from the Meng family can get the support of the Meng family and have the possibility of becoming the king of Beirong.

In the past, the Beirong royal family had few descendants. As long as he was a legitimate son, or a prince favored by the Beirong King and the Meng family, he could marry a girl from the Meng family.

However, the previous King of Beirong was a womanizer. Except for the eldest prince who was born to Queen Meng, the mothers of the other princes were not daughters of the Meng family.

So the Meng family sent another woman into the palace, and this woman was the mother of the ninth prince.

The old King of Beirong had thirteen princes.

There are not that many Meng family girls of marriageable age.

All princes knew that only by marrying a girl from the Meng family would they be eligible to ascend the throne.

Therefore, except for the eldest prince and the ninth prince who have superior innate bloodlines, the other eleven people are scrambling to get the remaining few places.

Apart from the seventh prince, the only one who finally succeeded in becoming the son-in-law of the Meng family was the third prince.

Qu Yi's question made the third prince smile bitterly.

"There was a case before where our ancestors made the son of their favorite concubine the crown prince. In order to avoid repeating the same mistake, the Meng family directly chose Rong Xuan, whose bloodline is purer, rather than me."

Rong Xuan is the son of the ninth prince and his wife, and is of pure Meng family blood.

Qu Yi said apologetically, "It's all my fault. I should have asked you to keep the Seventh Prince. With him blocking the way, no matter who wins or loses, you can just be a Prince of Anle..."

"No, as a prince of Beirong, how many people have a good ending? Either you succeed and become king, or you are killed and imprisoned. Rather than gambling on an unknown outcome, it's better to give it a try."

The third prince was aroused by Qu Yi's words.

"If it weren't for you, sir, I would have died countless times over the years."

This time, Qu Yi really felt some guilt.

He has been with the Third Prince for almost ten years, and from being an initially ignored counselor, he has gradually become his most trusted confidant.

The third prince paid more and more attention to him and treated him better and better.

But everything he did was calculated.

Qu Yi raised his head and held back his tears, thinking about how the third prince arrogantly called the people inferiors, forcibly abducted women and gave them to the cruel King of Beirong, sold official positions and titles, and massacred the people of Dayu.

When he lowered his head again, Qu Yi's eyes had regained clarity, but his mouth was filled with gratitude.

"I can only repay the Third Prince's kindness with my own life. But, what do you want to do next?"

The Third Prince's eyes were filled with ruthlessness. "I am already the crown prince of Beirong. I am only one step away from that position. There is no way I can give up. The Meng family is so aggressive, I can only take it step by step.

The Meng family controlled the royal family of Beirong for hundreds of years, and the royal family almost became the Meng family's back garden.

Over the past few hundred years, countless princes and nobles have been murdered by the Meng family.

I thought that by marrying a girl from the Meng family, I would be qualified to ascend the throne, but today, haha... the Meng family and I cannot coexist.

"I know this is difficult. How can I compare to the power of the Meng family? But today I am the crown prince, and the Meng family has been arrogant for many years, offending many people. And I am cautious and prudent. The enemy is open and I am hidden. It may not be impossible to eliminate the Meng family!"

The third prince's voice was low and sinister in the last few words.

Qu Yi's eyes reddened: "Whatever you want to do, Third Prince, I will follow you."

"Please help me, sir..."

While the Third Prince and Qu Yi were discussing how to get rid of the Meng family, Lu Yanyan stared at the snowflakes still flying outside the room and curled the corners of his lips.

The sleeping powder made by Han Huaixi based on "Leng's Medical Classics" has no harmful effects on the human body. It just makes people lack energy within five hours.

Ordinary doctors cannot find out.

Of course even if it is found out, Lu Yanyan is not afraid.

Because the incident with the sleeping powder among the third prince's secret guards and bodyguards was not caused by them, but by Li Jixin.

The layout of the Third Prince's Mansion was drawn by Qu Yi, and Lu Fugui passed it on while he was out looking for business opportunities.

Of course, the eight assassins at night were all Li Jixin's men.

When they entered the Third Prince's Mansion, they sprinkled sleeping powder on the courtyard where the guards were resting and on Nuanyang Residence where the Third Prince was staying.

With the snow covering it and the cold wind blowing everywhere, it is not difficult to apply medicine in the dark night.

Of course, the so-called assassin and Lu Yanyan and others had taken the antidote long ago.

Li Jixin's goal was only to intimidate and provoke, not to kill.

The sleeping powder was intended to make the third prince more dependent on Dalin and others, and also to allow the assassins to evacuate safely.

But who knew that the drug was so effective that the people pretending to be assassins couldn't let him go in front of the third prince.

In the end, all the secret guards around the three princes were killed.

Li Jixin was a little dumbfounded when he received the news.

The plan went too smoothly, but without the secret guards, would the Third Prince still dare to confront the Meng family?

The next morning, Li Jixin was relieved after receiving news from Qu Yi.

The guards of the palace were still there, and the backup plan that Qu Yi had asked the third prince to keep in advance was also there. His unintentional provocation also made the third prince want to get rid of the Meng family as soon as possible.

What they have to do now is to find a way to push the third prince to the throne as soon as possible.

After being assassinated, all of the third prince's secret guards died.

Now, the third prince is even more fortunate to have Qu Yi by his side.

In the early years, Qu Yi advised him to secretly cultivate some people, and now these people have become his most important trump cards.

It was also because of Qu Yi's suggestion that he left the group of Xiqi merchants behind, thus saving his life from the assassins.
