Thinking of this, Princess Zhaoning bowed and said, "Yes, my father heard that there was an assassin in the palace, so I quickly brought someone here."
"Okay, I'm fine here. You can go to your mother and have a look."
Princess Zhaoning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, made a gesture to the little girl and others, and they quickly walked out of the hall.
After walking far away, the little girl approached Princess Zhaoning and said, "The Imperial Master must be spying on you secretly, that's why he responded so quickly."
Princess Zhaoning nodded, "Yes, if we miss this opportunity today, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for us in the future."
"Let's go and see my queen mother first."
Princess Zhaoning took the little girl and others to see her mother, Concubine Shu.
After the mother and daughter met, it was natural for them to exchange a few words of greeting.
Concubine Shu took Princess Zhaoning's hand and said, "Feng'er, why did you bring so many people here this time, and they are all new faces."
Princess Zhaoning didn't hide anything, she just told her plans for this morning.
Concubine Shu was shocked after hearing this, "My son, why are you so impulsive and reckless?"
"If you want the emperor to make you the crown prince, you have to find a good opportunity."
"Mother, can't I wait any longer? Besides, things will be easier to handle while my brother is not at home." Princess Zhaoning looked regretful.
Concubine Shu sighed, "But Sun Yuliang noticed your movements and led people to protect the emperor in advance."
"Yes, I fell short of the mark." Princess Zhaoning couldn't help but sigh.
"No, you don't fall short of the mark. If you do this, I'm afraid you will lose everything."
Princess Zhaoning looked at her mother in surprise, with a puzzled look on her face, "It's not that serious."
"You don't know who Sun Yuliang is, and you don't know what he will say to the emperor after you leave!"
"Mother, what should I do?" Princess Zhaoning was a little anxious.
"The Imperial Master can do what the Emperor wants and win the Emperor's trust. You should do the same." After Concubine Shu finished speaking, she slowly stood up.
"After you return, you will take people to Bao'en Temple to burn incense with great fanfare and say to pray for the emperor."
"Go to Baoen Temple for at least three or two days, or at most five or six days, and then come back."
"Mother, it's only half a day's journey to Bao'en Temple, why should I stay so long?"
Concubine Shu smiled slightly and said, "Take people to Qingniu Mountain to solve the trouble outside."
Upon hearing this, Princess Zhaoning stood up and said, "My mother has a far-sighted vision that I cannot match."
Concubine Shu smiled and waved her hands, "I am just an ordinary woman. How could I have thought of this? Early this morning, the old Prime Minister Fang Zheng sent someone to tell me this."
"He also said that if you come to see me, it must mean that the matter has not been done."
After hearing these words, Princess Zhaoning was in awe of Fang Zheng.
"The old prime minister really knows things well."
Concubine Shu nodded, "The old prime minister also said that after you succeed, you will send a message back immediately, and he will immediately lead people to get rid of the national adviser to ensure that you ascend to the throne."
Princess Zhaoning couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Oh, the old prime minister is so amazing."
At this time, the little girl next to her spoke, "Your Highness, Princess Shu, will be killed sooner or later anyway. It is better to kill the national master Sun Yuliang first, and then let the emperor appoint the princess as the Lord of Chu."
Princess Zhaoning waved her hand, "If I kill the Imperial Master first, and then ask my father to make me the heir apparent, the Crown Prince can ascend Qingniu Mountain and shout, and then the world will respond. I will be very passive."
"So we must get rid of the prince first."
"After getting rid of the prince, the old prime minister got rid of the imperial master with lightning speed. My father had no choice but to make me the crown prince."
After hearing Princess Zhaoning's analysis, the little girl couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"My grandpa is really awesome."
After Princess Zhaoning returned home and tidied up, she really left the capital with great fanfare and went to Baoen Temple.
Hearing the news, National Master Sun Yuliang couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, let's get out of the city. After leaving the city, we can see all the actions at a glance."
At this time, the top Taoist next to him spoke, "Master, don't you think now is an excellent opportunity?"
"The Emperor only has one son and one daughter, and both of them are not in the capital. If you take advantage of this opportunity..."
Imperial Master Sun Yuliang waved his hand, "No hurry, no hurry, let's wait and see. Sooner or later, Xiao Jingyun and Xiao Jingfeng will have a battle. If two tigers fight, one of them will be injured."
Just as Princess Zhaoning was leading people out of the city, Chen Xiaobei led a group of team members and headed deep into the cave again.
This time they had no worries, and their journey was naturally smoother than yesterday.
Of course, just in case, Chen Xiaobei made the road signs more densely. He would put a mark almost every dozen feet, and when he encountered a corner, he would put several signs at a time.
There was no light and we didn't know the time. We didn't know how long we had been walking. When everyone felt hungry, they stopped.
Chen Sanliang looked around and said, "It's ten miles from yesterday's position to here."
Chen Sanliang's family has always been an old hunter, so Chen Xiaobei still thinks his judgment is reliable.
"Okay, let's eat something first."
Everyone spread out and found some dry rocks to sit on.
Chen Xiaobei sat down and took a few bites when he felt a cool breeze blowing behind him.
Although it feels cool in this cave, the wind is not strong, but the style of this place is extraordinary.
Chen Xiaobei subconsciously looked back and saw a particularly dark place about three feet away.
Is it a cave entrance?
Chen Xiaobei took a torch and stepped on the gravel until he got close, right? It was a large cave entrance, more than a foot high.
"Come here quickly, there is a cave here."
Hearing his shout, everyone immediately gathered around him.
Chen Sanliang held out a torch at the entrance of the cave and looked inside. Then he picked up a stone on the ground and threw it inside. He heard the stone rolling inside for a long time before it finally made no sound.
Chen Sanliang nodded, "It has a hard bottom inside and looks fairly flat. I'll go in and take a look first."
After saying that, he walked in.
Chen Xiaobei immediately shouted loudly, "Don't go too far. Come back as soon as I tell you to stop."
Chen Sanliang held the torch and walked forward cautiously step by step.
Chen Xiaobei was behind him, looking at him nervously.
Chen Xiaobei had already made up his mind. If there was a turn ahead, he would immediately stop Chen Sanliang and not let him disappear from his sight.
Chen Sanliang walked about half a mile, and when he turned a corner, Chen Xiaobei quickly called him.
"Brother Sanliang, don't leave, come back soon."
Chen Sanliang stood there, holding a torch and looking forward. Suddenly he shouted to Chen Xiaobei behind him with a look of surprise on his face, "Brother Xiaobei, come and take a look, what a beautiful stone."
Hearing his shout, everyone immediately rushed over in a hurry.
Chen Xiaobei walked at the end, and when he arrived, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.
