Chapter 410 (1/2)

After leaving Wuma Huacai's yard at the beginning of the summer, he wrote a new letter and asked Xiao Zimu to privately inform the emperor that the green bamboo lamp in the study had been changed and ask the emperor to trace it quietly so as not to scare the snake.

He handed this letter to Han Hong and asked him to hurry up and send it to Hou's house for Cong ting. If it was too late, he would replace the one handed to him before.

Han Hong was ordered to step down. At the beginning of summer, he went to Xiao mubai's room and talked to him about a conversation with old general Zhao in the general's house.

Han Hong hurried all the way to catch up with Cong ting on his way to the Hou house and the gate of the palace, handed the letter to him and relayed what he said in early summer.

Cong Ting sent the letter to the palace again. Xiao Zimu was still visiting concubine Lian in Yaohua Palace at that time. On the one hand, he heard that concubine Lian and the emperor had been making some trouble recently, and on the other hand, he also wanted to see the palace maid pearl beside her with his own eyes.

Xiao Zimu asked Princess Lian why she was unhappy with the emperor that night.

”Your father and I can have any unhappiness.” The lotus imperial concubine's expression was light. After saying that, she raised her eyes with a little doubt and asked, ”it's you. Since when, you've been standing on the cusp of the storm. In the past, you didn't like to be caught in the center of power. Didn't you always stay out of it?”

Xiao Zimu saw that concubine Lian was a little unhappy, and knew that these events would inevitably make her palpitation. After considering some words, he said: ”in the past, I just thought I had to stay out of it. My mother concubine, since I was born a prince, whether I like it or not, I have been in this vortex. If the country is succeeded by the fourth brother in the future, can we really be alone?”

If he had not known Xiao Yanjun's means and the sufferings of the people in the past, he might have stayed out of it as Princess Lian said. When he came to the weak crown and was granted the king, he invited a fief to be an idle prince.

But now, after several times of life and death, he knew that without the protection of early summer, his body would be cold. He had not fought for it in these years.

But they didn't even let Zheng Zhongguang go.

His existence itself is an obstacle in the eyes of others. Instead of waiting for others to give him a fatal blow, it's better to accept the childish idea of being an idle Prince early and have a good fight.

After listening to his words, Princess Lian sighed: ”you seem gentle since childhood. In fact, you are more stubborn than anyone.”

Xiao Zimu couldn't see her sad appearance, and called out with concern: ”mother imperial concubine.”

Concubine Lian took a simple smile: ”well, I thought you were arrogant all your life and didn't want to fight for the imperial power. Since you chose this road, you can't look ahead and back.”

Xiao Zimu smiled helplessly: ”mother imperial concubine, we have no choice.”

Concubine Lian looked at him lovingly. Xiao Zimu didn't know that he could have chosen.

Although the Ju family has been dormant in the court, it can not be said that they can protect his position, but if he has no desire for position, it is still possible to protect his wealth and peace all his life.

But now, he has entered the emperor's sight, not as before. Since the idea arose, there is no way out except to cut through thorns and thorns.

”If you need anything, just tell the mother imperial concubine that we Ju family can still do things.” Concubine Lian was silent for a moment and finally spoke.

Xiao Zimu didn't intend to ask concubine lian to help him. He wanted to fight for the throne. He said that he had seen the hardships of the people's livelihood in ancient Anhui and wanted to do something for the people.

Small, but also want to hold the highest power, can protect the people he wants to protect.
