Yes, compared to Xie Jinyan, the officials looked down upon a prince born from a cook.
Even though he is protected by the emperor, now the court seems to be divided into two factions, one is the princelings, and the other is the eldest prince's followers.
Now that the eldest prince has become disabled, he can no longer receive support.
Those conservative civil servants either respected their direct descendants or respected their elders.
Naturally, most people will choose Xie Jinyan.
What's more, Xie Jinyan's ability to sit on the throne of the prince did not rely on his status as the legitimate son.
Although he is young, he has also fought on the battlefield, which is different from Xie Rufeng and others who were protected and pampered by the emperor.
Even if Xie Rufeng deliberately disguised himself, the soldiers on the border would not submit to him just because he took off his disguise.
Even if he wins over Prince Ning, it's just a matter of balance. If the officials know that he framed Xie Jinyan, then... what awaits him will only be public anger.
Originally, he could have waited until Xie Jinyan returned to Beijing safely and then the emperor would slowly suppress him, but now he was so impatient that he gave Xie Jinyan a chance.
Let him put these things on the agenda.
However, this alone is not enough.
In addition, before returning to Beijing, he still needs to win over Song Yan.
Since then, it is even more necessary to make good use of Xiao Yun...
Otherwise, how can they be worthy of their "sincere heart" that intends to usurp the throne and seek the country.
Thinking in his mind, Xie Jinyan immediately looked at Feng Yuan and ordered him, "Feng Yuan, please go find two corpses, one male and one female, with the same stature as Gu and Senior Sister. Then keep them well and never let them go."
It will rot, and then the news about the orphan will be revealed."
"Gu, I want to lure the snake out of its hole."
"Yes." Feng Yuan received the order and immediately turned around and walked out.
Seeing Feng Yuan's figure fading away, Yu Qingwu quickly closed the door, turned around and walked to Xie Jinyan's side.
She frowned and glanced at him, then lowered her voice and said, "Your Highness, are you planning to cheat your death?"
"yes."
Xie Jinyan nodded, with a hint of gloom on his brows, and said with a cold smile, "Only when they die alone will those people reveal their true colors."
"When they are proud and proud, the appearance of Gu again will inevitably cause an uproar. As for Xie Rufeng, although he pretended to be cowardly in the past, it is not difficult to see from his current behavior that he is eager for quick success and is very happy with success. He is so famous.
Oh, you can't help but take action?"
"With this kind of temperament, it is impossible to say that when he enters the court, he will also target those ministers who once looked down on him. If he really wants to sit on the throne of the crown prince, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to do so."
"Furthermore, if he offends Song Yan in order to take Gu's life, guess what Song Yan's attitude will be?"
"Even if he knew that he had been exploited by Gu, he would never be able to swallow this breath. Once this rift is opened, he will never have any contact with Xie Rufeng again."
This is really the truth.
I have to say that after all, Xie Jinyan was someone who had been around the court for many years.
It only took a moment to think of all the options.
Therefore, what we need to do now is, firstly, to meet Song Yan, and secondly, to strengthen the defense, not only to give Xie Rufeng a chance to assassinate, but also to ensure that he will not be injured.
At this point, Yu Qingwu thought of someone.
Junior sister Yan Qingqing...
Although she is young, she has excellent medical skills for rejuvenation.
And he knows how to make some exquisite weapons.
With this thought, Yu Qingwu immediately told Xie Jinyan this idea.
The two immediately sent people to Yan Qingqing's hometown to report the news.
After making these arrangements, five days later, when Song Guan and Song Yilan returned to Qingzhou from Qu County, they went with them to the Song Mansion as guests.
At this time, most of spring has passed, and the weather is gradually turning into early summer.
Once summer comes, it will rain a lot.
Just before noon, it rained heavily.
The smell of earth drifts with the rain
Scattered in the air, faintly accompanied by the fragrance of grass.
As soon as I stepped off the carriage, I saw a lush green grassland and the surrounding lakes were so clear that even the swimming fish could be clearly seen.
Yu Qingwu, Xie Jinyan, Song Guan, and Song Yilan slowly stepped off the carriage.
"This is right here. This lake belongs to my home and is mine."
As soon as she got off the carriage, Song Yilan pointed to the vast lake and said with some pride.
After experiencing what happened in Qu County, and working with Song Guan to create hundreds of nests in South Vietnam, Song Yilan seemed to have grown a lot overnight.
It seems that the previous resentment towards Yu Qingwu is gone.
Instead, he gently held her arm, pointed to the fish in the water and asked her, "By the way, Mrs. Yu, since you can tame animals and insects and birds, can you also tame these fish?"
this……
Yu Qingwu has never been tame, nor has he ever thought about it.
Hearing Song Yilan's question, she was stunned for a moment, waved her hands truthfully, and said with a smile, "No, fish can't be used in other places besides surviving in water, so I never thought about it.
.”
"Um, really? Can you train horses? I have many horses at home."
Song Yilan was a little disappointed, but soon her face showed interest again.
If she can tame horses, then those horses will have to obey her from now on. If she wants to deal with the Qin family, it will be easier.
Thinking of Qin Yiliu, Song Yilan's face couldn't help but pull down.
However, when their eyes fell on Yu Qingwu and Xie Jinyan, their eyes couldn't help but show excitement.
Qin's mother-in-law didn't know what her reaction would be when she saw the two people she hated most in the past.
What would her reaction be if she knew that the heroes who took down South Vietnam a few days ago and built hundreds of strongholds were herself and Song Guan?
Speaking of which, it was precisely because of this that Song Yilan no longer resented Yu Qingwu so much.
After all, compared to competing with the Qin family for favor, being a hero can make you feel more proud.
While thinking, several people had already arrived at the door of Song Mansion.
The architecture in Shu is different from that in Kyoto. Although the Song family is the largest wealthy family in Qingzhou, their houses are extremely simple. Most of the houses are made of stone. Unlike the princes and nobles in Kyoto, most of them use smooth blue bricks.
The door is made of iron and looks very strong.
As Song Yilan knocked on the door, a boy walked out. When he saw it was Song Yilan, his face suddenly lit up and he shouted to her in surprise, "Third girl, you... you are back! Where have you been these days?"
?You don’t know how anxious I am?”
In a hurry?
I guess her father is in a hurry.
Although her father is now very protective of the Qin family, he still loves her in the end.
Thinking about it, Song Yilan also missed her father a little.
She smiled and did not answer the boy's words. She only asked him loudly, "Xiao Shi, where is my father?"
"I went to the clan, saying that I had something important to discuss with the saint."
Saint?
Song Yilan sneered in her heart but remained calm on her face. She only glanced at Yu Qingwu and Xie Jinyan and asked, "Ms. Yu, Mr. Xie, how about we go see my father first?"
