"Why am I talking nonsense? Isn't what I said the truth?"
"What do you think is the truth? You think something is true, but is it actually true?"
"Isn't it? How long has he been back? How much does he know about the situation in Beijing? Also, without the help of our family, how can he come back smoothly? My brother almost got into an accident trying to save him, and he hasn't said anything about it yet.
, why should we be so miserable while he is so superior?"
The more Qi Lanqing talked about it, the angrier he became. It didn't matter that a prince had been living abroad for many years. He was the emperor's grandson. He had no power or power in the capital. Who could he show this to?
He was so grateful that he couldn't even rely on the Qi family as a backer.
Qi Anhou said, "You really think that the Sikong family is not worthy of attention."
"Dad, isn't this obvious? The Sikong family is making an attack in the east and in the west. What does Bai Yuxian know? A man who is idle and arrogant in the world, and expect him to turn the tide, isn't this a joke?
We are so kind and kind to help him, does he appreciate it? We even leave the beautiful capital alone and insist on recruiting troops in some dangerous place. Isn't this just a blind man trying to touch an elephant?"
Qi Anhou looked helpless, "You just don't know how high the sky is. The prince just said that it is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack position. If you really occupy it, why don't you worry about not being able to sweep in all directions?"
"How is it possible?" Qi Lanqing still couldn't understand the power of it. She believed that the Sikong family was greedy, but they would not rebel.
Qi Anhou shook his head and said, "That's all, what are you talking about? How could he come back here if he didn't have any plans?"
Qi Anhou was busy arranging everything.
Bai Yuxian was busy washing up, and was just about to take a good sleep to recuperate, when he heard a follower come to report: "Prince, there is something going on in the Sikong family."
Bai Yuxian stood up, put on a gold and black cloud pattern robe, and hurried out of the palace.
In Sikong Mansion, in the dead of night, the lights in the mansion are bright.
The second son of the Sikong family got into the carriage with a woman and two children. It looked like he was going on a long trip?
Mu Qiu said, "Your Highness, are they running away?"
Bai Yuxian stood in a high corner and looked coldly at the movement below and said, "Obviously, he is indeed running away."
Muqiu frowned while holding his sword, "Strange, if they wanted to run, why didn't they run earlier? What's the point of running now, in a hurry, and sneaking around in the middle of the night? Besides,
Isn’t it said that Prince Sikong is not afraid of heaven or earth?”
Bai Yuxian snorted coldly, "It's true to say that Sikong Ying is as brave as a jackal, but Master Sikong is as timid as a mouse. He doesn't have the courage."
Mu Qiu turned to look at his master, "Isn't Master Sikong the father of Sikong Ying?"
"That's Sikong Yong. He knows that Sikong Ying is very ambitious."
"Then why doesn't Mr. Sikong and Prince Sikong have the same heart? They are father and son, so there won't be any rift between them?" Why does Mu Qiu feel that he doesn't understand?
Bai Yuxian said, "Because Sikong Yong doesn't want to leave the emperor's feet, and he doesn't want to disgrace his ancestors, he doesn't dare to rebel. All along, he only wants to be powerful. As for overlooking the world, he doesn't have the courage, but his son Sikong Ying is ambitious.
He had great ambitions and insisted on making great achievements, so he became a powerful and sycophantic minister, and the father and son had mutual dissatisfaction over this."
"So, the one who escaped overnight is Sikong Ying's son?"
"He is the son of his favorite concubine."
Mu Qiu found it interesting, "They say that Prince Sikong has all the power and is fearless, but he is actually afraid of you, the prince. So, he knew that the prince was coming back?"
Bai Yuxian was silent. Not many people knew that he was back. The first one was Hou Qi An, because after he recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, it was Hou Qi An and Qi Shaohua who had been helping him with things.
And Qi Lanqing is a talkative person. She wants to show off to everyone she meets, and then she keeps chattering. As a result, everyone knows that the seventh prince gave birth to a son who did not die, and he came back.
Thinking about it, Qi Lanqing is really the master of bad things. She is used to being arrogant and domineering in the capital. She is not afraid of anyone and does everything with loyalty.
No, I recently heard that she is spreading rumors to cause trouble. Whenever she meets someone, she tells everyone that if I want to marry, I will also marry a prince, and I will never marry you.
She was saying both inside and outside her words that Bai Yuxian and she were destined to be married by God, and this woman was so shameless.
Even Bai Yuxian didn't agree to something, but she spread it everywhere.
Mu Qiu said, "Then what should we do now, let them go like this?"
"Well, let's go first."
"But……"
"It's nothing, just a desperate struggle. They must have thought that I had no time to take care of myself, so they took advantage of the chaos and ran away."
"The prince is saying..."
"Prince Duan and Prince Xian have been busy lately, haven't they? They have sent groups of people one after another. They are really princes. On the surface, they care about their nephew, but secretly they are sharpening their knives and wanting to kill pigs."
Mu Qiu had nothing to say. He knew that his master occasionally joked, but he never thought that he would joke like this. He said that it would be more appropriate to tell the princess of Yan State about the pig. Talking about this with the guard, why did he feel a chill on his neck?
Woolen cloth?
Mu Qiu asked worriedly, "Then should we ask my subordinates to go down and give a reply to the two princes? They are so 'eagerly concerned', so at least we can express our feelings."
Bai Yuxian shook his head, "No, let them do it first. This is a pool of stagnant water in the Imperial Capital of the Lu Kingdom. The water is deep and turbid. I can just walk on the edge. As for the middle of the water, let the two imperial uncles swim across."
"Aren't you worried, Prince? The situation in the court is tense and you have to go to court tomorrow."
"Of course I have to go to court. The courtiers will have objections if I don't go. The day before yesterday, Sikong Ying was acting strangely in the court. King Duan and King Xian were not wary at first, but with the reminder that they inherited their father's legacy, my two imperial uncles
A murderous intention."
"It seems that King Duan and King Xian are determined to win the throne."
"They have been eyeing the throne for many years. Maybe they were eyeing the throne when my father was here. After my father left, the two uncles breathed a sigh of relief. Then the two of them fought openly and secretly for many years. It was originally the light of the sword and the shadow of the two people.
But they didn't expect me to show up, and then they would work together to attack me."
"Then let's..."
"Let's just sit back and do nothing. They are not the biggest threat. On the contrary, they are the best shield."
"The prince is saying that we can use King Duan and King Xian to confuse the enemy?"
"Exactly."
At present, the Sikong family is like a frightened bird. The slightest disturbance makes them tremble and frightened. It is no wonder that they have to run away overnight.
Bai Yuxian returned to the palace, looked at the time, and saw that the sky was slightly bright. He put on his green court clothes and hurried to meet the saint.
In the splendid palace, the ministers bowed their heads.
Some people turned to look at the young talent standing in the crowd.
With outstanding grace and grace, he really has the elegance of the Seventh Prince back then.
