faint [rebirth]

The eighth princess seemed to understand most of Xiao Wuchen's words, but obviously, she understood the most important part.

Her elder brother, the emperor, was unwilling to take action against the regent at this moment, and wanted to continue even with the uncle regent who had already held the power in his hands.

Even at the expense of continuing to treat himself like a bird in a cage, he continued to be imprisoned by the regent's uncle.

The eighth princess doesn't understand, does it have to be like this if you like someone?If you do something wrong, don't you just use other methods to repay it?As the king of a country, the emperor's brother, why should he be wronged so much?

However, no matter how carefully the eighth princess persuades, Xiao Wuchen has made up his mind, but no matter how much the eighth princess persuades, he does not intend to change his mind.

The eighth princess was so angry that her little face swelled up, and her meter was beeping, especially cute.

Xiao Wuchen laughed when he saw this.

He stretched out his hand, poked the eighth princess's swollen cheek, hugged the little girl, and said with a low smile: "Silly girl, don't be afraid. Uncle Huang is not confused. If he still wants to spend his whole life with Brother Wei, he should It won’t go on like this forever.”

The reason why the current emperor locked him up was because he didn't trust him in his heart, coupled with the anger in his heart, he became a little irrational because of this.

When the time passed day by day, when the emperor's uncle's sanity returned, it was the time for the two to get back together.

——No matter what, Xiao Wuchen believed that he liked and respected the emperor's uncle.And his uncle will definitely like and respect him so much.

It didn't take long before his uncle would wake up and stop locking him up.

Even if he can't take back the power in his hands at that time, as long as the emperor's uncle can handle the state affairs well, as long as the emperor's uncle no longer restrains him like he is now, Xiao Wuchen will definitely be able to continue to go on with his emperor's uncle.

The eighth princess smiled a little on her tender little face.

Because she came to Xishan with great difficulty, she still came to Xishan with her emperor's brother. Although they could only play together for a day or two, the eighth princess was still extremely happy in her heart.

Men and women are not intimate, and the hot springs must not be soaked together. However, many flowers such as peach blossoms and pear blossoms on the West Mountain are in full bloom. Looking from a distance, they are extremely beautiful and lovely.

Especially Xiao Wuchen brought a painter with him.

The eighth princess was even happier.

Wearing the clothes newly made for her by the emperor's brother, she ran around in the peach blossom forest, giggling.

When she was tired from running, she would snuggle up next to her emperor brother and let the painter paint for them.

At the same time, there are delicious peach blossom and pear blossom snacks, and it is rare for the emperor's brother to let her go and eat as much as she wants.

Therefore, the eighth princess had a very happy time in these two days.

Xiao Wuchen also played with the eighth princess with great interest on the first day.This imperial sister of his, married far away in a foreign country at a young age in her previous life, and suffered so much.In this life, he thought that since he protected her early in the morning, he could make her live happier.But even so, when he was reborn, there were still people who were so bold as to attack the eighth princess, and the eighth princess was so tired that her body was not as good as ordinary people.

Fortunately, the eighth princess is in good health, and the poisoning is not too serious, so as long as the eighth princess exercises every day, eats and drinks well, she won't get sick often.

It's just that after Xiao Wuchen played happily with the eighth princess for a day, he thought that Xiao Junye would come to see him early in the morning the next day, and then the three of them stayed in Xishan until dusk before leaving.

After all, this was agreed between the two before Xiao Junye left.

Xiao Wuchen couldn't help smiling when he thought of how the emperor's uncle was reluctant to leave before he left.

It's just that Xiao Junye didn't come until the morning of the next day.

Xiao Wuchen frowned slightly, he only thought that the emperor's uncle was delayed by something and couldn't rush over for the time being, so he didn't think much about it.

It was only in the afternoon when he still didn't see the emperor's uncle that he became a little anxious.

And at this time, although Xiao Junye didn't come to pick him up, he never stayed in the palace either.

He was in a small teahouse in the depths of a hidden alley in Luoyang City, and the person sitting opposite him was a gentle and elegant man who looked like he was in his thirties.

Whether it's that man or Xiao Junye, the temperament and attire of the two of them really don't match this rather old teahouse.

After the waiter in the shop delivered the best teahouse and snacks in the teahouse, he occasionally passed them over there, wondering what he was looking at.

The store manager saw the waiter's appearance, and immediately hit the waiter's head hard.

At the same time, he rebuked in a low voice: "Don't die? How dare you peek at such a nobleman? Don't be afraid that the nobleman will be annoyed for a while, and you won't even be able to save your life? Let me tell you, if the nobleman is angry, I won't say anything about it." If I can't keep you, even if I can, I won't care about you!"

The waiter in the shop originally wanted to secretly tell the shopkeeper that the nobleman didn't touch the best snacks and tea in the shop that they sent up, and whether they could be rewarded to him later, but he was taught a lesson like this. His head drooped, and he immediately went to wipe the table with a big towel, not daring to say more.

And this is not the time for drinking tea, the storyteller in the restaurant is also drinking tea leisurely at this moment, and has not started work.Therefore, there were not many people in the teahouse.

On the second floor where Xiao Junye and the man were, there were only two people and their entourage left.

Xiao Junye looked at the person opposite him coldly, and his voice was as cold as ice: "You are so courageous, you dare to take refuge in such people? You are the blood of the Xiao family, even if you are in despair now, why do you do that?" Waiting for someone's running dog, crawling at the feet of that waiting person? Are you not afraid that once that waiting person succeeds, you will become a useless person and even lose your life?"

The person opposite Xiao Junye smiled lowly when he heard the words, poured himself a cup of tea, held it in his hand, but didn't drink it.

"How can people like that really succeed?" The man said with a half-smile, "The reason they dare to be so rampant now is because of you. They know your background and know that you belong to them. Knowing that you have the blood of the previous dynasty. And as you who have the blood of the previous dynasty and are in a high position and in charge of the world, you dare not and cannot completely abandon everything you have today."

Xiao Junye looked at him expressionlessly.

The man said: "The regent doesn't have to look at Gu like this. Yes, Gu told them about your life experience. So, according to Gu's thoughts, he must wait for Gu's younger brother to rejuvenate the dynasty. After working hard and deteriorating day by day, he took the throne again. I didn't expect..." He paused, and then looked at Xiao Junye meaningfully, "I didn't expect that the regent is a good person. With the power of the world and his own selfish desires, he even dares to imprison the lonely emperor's younger brother. Since the regent dares to imprison the lonely emperor's younger brother, then Gu will naturally dare to do what he can and should do."

Xiao Junye was silent at first, and after a while, he said again: "So, what are you going to do?"

The man paused, then smiled and said: "What is Gu going to do? Could it be that the high-ranking regent can't figure out this question?" Seeing Xiao Junye staring at him and refusing to speak, the man sighed, " Gu naturally wants to take back what belongs to Gu."

Xiao Junye's pupils shrank suddenly.

The man continued indifferently: "You don't want to deceive Gu. I have lived alone for more than [-] years, and I have been the son of my father for more than [-] years. I know my father best. With my father's temperament, he is determined. I feel guilty about Guxin. It was all before, but later on my imperial brother was confused and forced the palace. I knew in my heart that my father must have prepared many means to pass on the throne to Gu. But although my father I have plans in my heart, but I probably didn't expect that Gu's imperial brother would let Gu 'die'. In this way, the edict to let Gu succeed to the throne will be nothing."

"However, after all, you still don't know Father enough, you don't know Gu well enough." The corner of the man's lips twitched slightly, "Father ascended the throne at the age of 30, and Chengguang abdicated at 34 years old. Which imperial decree is the second hand? If Gu's thinking is correct, as long as the emperor's younger brother abdicates or dies, and Gu appears, then someone in the court will send up the edict that Gu will be the emperor. At that time, that position will naturally be Gu. It's gone."

What the man said seemed to make sense, but after listening to Xiao Junye, he snorted and said coldly: "Abdicate? Why does the new emperor want to abdicate? Do you really think that it is just a few remnants of the previous dynasty?" , can you really threaten this king and the new emperor?" As for death, that is even more ridiculous.

The man just smiled: "If the regent's life experience is innocent, he is really the Xiao family, or if the regent is just a child of an ordinary family, then the threats we are waiting for naturally cannot be counted. It's a pity—it's a pity, the regent But it is the blood of the previous dynasty. If the regent’s life experience is revealed, then, does the regent really think that your position as the regent can continue? It's fine to pamper your imperial brother foolishly, but can you continue pampering you?"

"At that time, I'm afraid that even if my younger brother wants to protect you, at most he will save your life. At that time, the regent who is now high above and able to control the new emperor will become a dusty, Powerless, powerless, remnants of the previous dynasty like ants! And at that time, it was my brother's turn to come and go at your call. It is even said that if he is unsatisfactory, or suddenly has an idea What should you do if you plan to have children? Can the regent at that time be the emperor of the Daxing Dynasty like he is now? I'm afraid that at that time, you will only be able to rely on my emperor. Live with pity for a moment."

As the man said, he looked at Xiao Junye who seemed to be treated as an ant with the eyes of a superior.

"Instead of this, the regent might as well cooperate with Gu. Gu promises you that once the regent cooperates with Gu, then not only will the remnants of the previous dynasty have nothing to do with you, but Gu will hand over all of them to you Disposal. Whether it is life or death, it is all in your hands. And Gu's good brother, Gu will also look at the regent's face, give him the title of King of Peace, confine him, and be guarded by the regent .And the regent is still the regent, unchanged for a hundred years." After that, the man stood up, looked condescendingly at Xiao Junye, and spoke again slowly, "How to choose depends on the regent alone. After three days alone, come again See the regent. When the time comes, I hope the regent will not let Gu down. After all, the life experience of the regent is completely shady."

His meaning is very clear, if Xiao Junye is willing to take refuge in him, then he will give Xiao Junye the same status, remove the hidden dangers of his background, and give Xiao Wuchen as a "gift" to Xiao Junye; but, if Xiao Junye refuses to take refuge in him... ...Then, not only will Xiao Junye's life experience be revealed to the world, but Xiao Wuchen's life...

The man's complexion was very fair, looking at the bright sun outside the teahouse and the vast sky, he smiled slightly, and suddenly reminded him kindly: "You should know that there are many people who want Xiao Wuchen's life, Gu, you The people behind you, the relatives of the many vassal kings who have been abandoned or have not been abandoned in the harem, and the barbarians on the frontier... If you should not be alone, then there is no guarantee of being alone. It will become an illusion; it is even more impossible to guarantee whether Gu will cooperate with other people, and he will simply kill Gu’s good brother and finish the calculation... After all, cutting grass and roots and breaking brothers and sisters are what our Xiao family is best at. ,Is not it?"

Xiao Junye was silent, and he didn't speak until the man really turned around to leave.

"So, the late emperor really left manpower with you? Was it the late emperor's own secret guard back then?"

The man paused: "Yes."

"So, in order to seize the throne, you are the one who colluded with the remnants of the previous dynasty and let the remnants of the previous dynasty enter the palace?"

"Yes."

"So, you are the one who ignores the common people, turns his back on Daxing, and colludes with barbarians on the border in an attempt to usurp the throne?"

The man stopped in his tracks, but this time he didn't speak.

"Abandoning the crown prince, you really have a good plan. For the sake of the throne, you can really do anything to betray Daxing and the Xiao family. Others say that the abolition of the crown prince is a modest gentleman, and he was wronged by the late emperor. Twenty years of confinement. However, today, it seems that the abolished prince is just a real villain who betrays his promise and takes pride in betraying his country!"

The man stood upright for a long time, but he left without looking back.

What about villains?So what about treachery and treason?

That position was supposed to be his.

He has endured for 20 years and carefully planned for so long, how can he give up what should belong to him because of some trivial matters?

Behind the derelict prince, Xiao Junye's gaze was as real as it was. If it were a sharp sword, he would have cut off the decapitated prince long ago.

But he couldn't, at least not at the moment.

Life experience, life experience...

He would rather be the son of a beggar than the child of Wuchen's enemy.

In the previous life, even Wuchen didn't know his life experience, so he could kill him for the sake of suspicion and imperial power, so what about this life?

Xiao Junye's heart was full of bitterness, and he drank the tea in front of him as wine.

However, in the mouth, it tastes like yellow lotus.

It was not until half an hour before dusk that he finally walked out of the teahouse.

He also has to pick up his dust-free.
