Chapter 244: Estrangement
"Chu Qinghuang brought her male favorites into the palace today. They were very arrogant, as if they didn't pay attention to the etiquette and rules." Qi Yun looked worried, "She also has a violent temper and beats her at every turn. Shasha doesn't have the gentleness and virtuousness of a daughter's family, but is more like a man, and it's not surprising that he has ambitions. "
King Zhenbei's expression changed slightly: "Why do you have such an idea?"
"I just want to say, if King Xuan knew that Chu Qinghuang also had ambitions, would he still try to win over Chu Qinghuang at all costs?"
King Zhenbei was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Probably not."
"Our purpose is to let King Xuan know Chu Qinghuang's ambitions - whether Chu Qinghuang has ambitions or not, we have to make King Xuan believe that she does." Qi Yun smiled coldly, "Wait until he knows that Chu Qinghuang is interested in him When it is said that it is not a help but a threat, the first thing that comes to my mind is my father.”
If Chu Qinghuang really becomes his opponent, then King Zhenbei, who holds military power, will be the only one who can compete with Chu Qinghuang. Will King Xuan dare to win over him?
As long as he still wants to sit in that position, he will definitely find a way to show his goodwill to King Zhenbei, because the presence of Chu Qinghuang will make him restless.
I have to say that Qi Yun still has some brains.
In fact, he is not stupid. He analyzes the situation clearly and can see the pros and cons, but he is too self-righteous and thinks highly of himself. He has an overconfidence that is not in line with his own abilities.
As the legitimate son of the King of Zhenbei, it is impossible to say that Qi Yun is really such a fool. It is just that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. In the Mianbei fiefdom, his heir apparent has the status of a prince. His high self-esteem and excessive arrogance are completely caused by those young people. A result long touted by the sons of city lords and officials.
Coupled with the love and hatred of the previous generation, Qi Yun has not dealt with Qi Ling since he was a child. He hates him when he sees him, and uses all means to suppress and humiliate him. As a result, many children of aristocratic families in the Mianbei fiefdom follow suit and suppress the bastards of their families. , almost formed a trend over a long period of time, which directly elevated the legitimate son's status in the family to an unmatchable level, while the concubine and concubine were suppressed to the point where they were almost no different from slaves.
Therefore, in the following years, why Qi Ling's martial arts improved by leaps and bounds and he was also good at military strategy has always been the reason why Qi Yun couldn't figure it out the most and gave rise to strong jealousy.
That night, Qi Yun took a few guards and went to Prince Xuan's Mansion at night.
"Young Master Qi, do you want to see me?" King Xuan was taking a bath and frowned when he heard this, "Why did he come to see me?"
He had no intention of getting involved with King Zhenbei. After all, it was a taboo for a prince to have close contact with the vassal prince. At this juncture, he must not let his father become suspicious of him.
Chu Tianyin had contact with King Zhenbei because they were Weng's sons-in-law. After the death of the Qi family, there was a reason to give Chu Tianyin a chance to make amends. It was not surprising that King Zhenbei went to the Prince's Mansion of Jin County.
But if his father knew that he was also dealing with King Zhenbei...
King Xuan frowned: "Just say that I am unwell and have rested."
"Master Qi said that he has something very important to tell His Highness. Your Highness will definitely regret it if he doesn't see him."
King Xuan sneered: "Repent?"
What does he have to regret?
"not see."
"yes."
The servant walked out, but after a while, he came back: "Your Highness, Mr. Qi asked me to show you this."
King Xuan is displeased, is it over yet?
Can’t you even take a bath to live peacefully?
The servant handed over a sealed mailbox, the kind usually used to deliver messages by flying pigeons, which usually could only deliver a few words.
King Xuan wanted to see what trick Qi Yun was playing, so he reached out to take the letter and opened it. After taking a look at the contents of the letter, his expression suddenly changed.
It was indeed a few words... no, just a few words, but it made Chu Tiankuo feel huge waves in his heart.
Chu Qinghuang is ambitious and aims to aspire to the throne?
Chu Tiankuo clenched his hands, and his arms slowly sank into the water. The note was soaked in water in his palms. His brows became dark and cold. For some reason, he suddenly thought of what Chu Qinghuang had done these days. do.
The male pets from Chu Qinghuang's backyard came in one after another. Chu Qinghuang raided the Hong family, Chu Qinghuang dealt with Chu Tianyin's mother and son, Chu Qinghuang raided the Ling family, and then took over the power of the Silver Armor Army from the Ling family.
Chu Qinghuang was poisoned in Prince Xuan's Mansion, which directly caused the Feng family to be exiled.
Chu Qinghuang brought her male favorite into the palace in a grand manner, causing heavy losses to both Prince Zhenbei and his son... Also, Wen Zhan's father got the position of Minister of Household Affairs, Qi Ling became the left general of the Silver Armor Army, Chu Qinghuang There is also a servant named Chu in the backyard whose origin is unknown...
Chu Tiankuo closed his eyes hard. How slow was he that he didn't realize until now that everything Chu Qinghuang did was planned in advance?
