The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 531: It’s not easy to be the head of state

Xiao Zhizong said angrily: "Escape by yourself? Do you think it is that easy? We only have a few hundred servants under our command, and those imperial guards are usually on good terms with us. Without His Majesty's will, there is no way they would have left with us." "

"The road to Shu is extremely difficult and dangerous. How can we get out without enough troops to escort us!"

Mrs. Xiao Er had an idea: "We can't control others. Jing Bo'an is also a commander now. He came from Chang'an and has been marginalized by the people in the state. If we win over him, maybe we can succeed!"

"And Princess Xiushan, Queen Mother Ruan and her son can't see what Du Zhong is thinking. Could she still be unable to see it?"

Xiao Zhizong snorted again: "Save your efforts, that bitch has already rolled on the same bed with Eucommia ulmoides. If Eucommia ulmoides supports the young emperor in the future, it must have the support of someone from the royal family. That bitch won't It’s very useful!”

"As for Jing Bo'an," Xiao Zhizong was very disdainful of this person, but after a moment he hesitated and said, "I can't see through this person anymore!"

The whole family left, but he stayed, and he became a moderate commander again. He seemed to be on good terms with others, but in fact he didn't get close to anyone.

Jing Boan's behavior made Xiao Zhizong a little confused, and he couldn't figure out what he wanted.

Xiao Zhizong finally gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty is soft-hearted and has no independent opinions. This matter depends on Empress Dowager Ruan. Madam, please find an opportunity to go to the palace and talk to that woman!"

Mrs. Xiao looked anxious and said: "But what if she doesn't listen and instead informs Eucommia?"

Xiao Zhizong said frankly: "She will not listen to her, but she will not inform Du Zhong. She will only become suspicious of Du Zhong in her heart and will not prevent us from escaping."

On the second day, Mrs. Xiao entered the palace early to meet Queen Mother Ruan.

Empress Du heard this and dismissed it: "Now that we are in a dilemma, do you know how to come here to find a backer?"

"It's too late. The two emperor's sons-in-law are destined to put the Xiao family on the fire. The Xiao family is doomed this time~!"

If you want to be the head of the country in one step, you still have a lot of appetite. If you want to get two at once, you have to push yourself to death.

In the evening, Xiao Lianxin, who had been having a baby at home, couldn't help but feel desolate when seeing her lost mother.

"Mother, you look like this, but the old lady doesn't believe you?" Xiao Lianxin asked uneasily.

Mrs. Xiao gently wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and her tone could not hide her bitterness: "The Queen Mother actually said that my Xiao family is ambitious and wants to please both sides, and she also took the opportunity to drive a wedge between Your Majesty and the Du family!"

"It's such an injustice. I tried to persuade her, but I couldn't hear a single good word from her. I just thought we were giving eye drops to the Du family."

Xiao Zhizong was distraught: "You are crying so much. What kind of virtue is this woman? Do you know today?"

Xiao Lianxin couldn't help but feel sad: "Then what should we do now?"

As soon as Queen Du was left to give birth, Du Zhong would inevitably initiate changes, and the Xiao family would be the first targets of Du Zhong's attack.

But if we leave, the land of Shu is difficult, and we won't be able to leave in a short time.

When the family was upset, the boy came to report that Mr. Xiao was here.

Xiao Zhizong's family looked at each other, wondering what his eldest brother was going to do when he came here.

Mr. Xiao came over with a child of about two years old, born to his new concubine after arriving in Shu.

"I know you want to leave now, and I don't intend to keep you. The Xiao family has reached this point, and this is what I will do in my life. Feng'er and Lian Yun also left early. Except for Mo'er, I too No worries." "If you want to leave, then take Mo'er with you!"

Xiao Zhizong looked at Mr. Xiao with some confusion: "Brother, what are you doing? Now you and I are the only two brothers in the Xiao family. If we want to leave, of course we must leave together."

Mr. Xiao sighed: "Although I don't care about world affairs, I can clearly see the ambition of Eucommia ulmoides."

"How could he let our Xiao family leave in such a situation? It would be better for me to stay and let you escape as soon as possible."

"Brother!" Xiao Zhizong choked up for a moment. Brothers for many years, how could they not have any feelings for each other.

Mr. Xiao put the child down and said: "When the old man was still alive, he said that he would not allow future generations to serve as officials in the court, but you are so power-minded that you can't listen to any words!"

"Brother." Xiao Zhizong wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Mr. Xiao: "You are not entirely wrong. If we had not left Qingzhou, I guess our family would have fallen into the hands of the White Lotus Army."

"It's meaningless to say who is right and who is wrong now. Jing Bo'an and I have made an agreement with him. He will escort you away. You just do what you want!"

Xiao Zhizong was stunned when he heard this: "How did the elder brother convince Jing Bo'an? Is this person trustworthy?"

Mr. Xiao comforted him and said, "I can trust him. Princess Xiushan contributed some efforts when he regained control of the army. I also spoke for him. He has done nothing in Shu. He can't do it without leaving here."

Xiao Zhizong looked at this eldest brother again. He originally thought that he was not interested in worldly affairs, but he didn't know when he met Jing Bo'an. These two people were not from the same world, but they ended up together. It was really puzzling.

The Xiao family packed up and prepared to run away.

After hearing the news, Chen Yuzhang, who was far away in Jincheng, burst out laughing: "Dafeng Dynasty actually gave birth to two emperors."

"Excellent! Excellent! Tantai Lin is very ambitious and has never shown it. He is just trying to make a profit."

"The more chaotic the Tantai family's royal family is now, the better. It's best if the chaos is beyond control so that we can take advantage of it."

Just laughing a few times, some sweat broke out on his forehead.

Yang Shiyue wiped his sweat, but she didn't recognize it in her heart. She knew Tantai Lin's ability. As long as he lived for a day, the kings of Hejian and Wei were just passing by, and the person who stood up in the end must be Tantai Lin.

It's just that she didn't want to tell Chen Yuzhang this, lest he would be unhappy.

Chen Yuzhang suddenly grabbed her wrist, pointed at a tooth mark on Bai Jing's arm and asked, "What is this?"

Yang Shiyue suppressed the panic in her heart and said calmly: "What else could it be? Isn't it all the fault of your good son!"

Chen Yuzhang breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that his son had some biting problems. Now that he was in poor health, he was inevitably a little suspicious.

Chen Yuzhang reached out and touched Yang Shiyue's hair: "Thank you for your hard work. If I succeed in the future, I will definitely not let you down!"

Yang Shiyue leaned on his chest, her eyes lowered to cover her anger: "I trust Yulang!"

The two cuddled up and were speechless for a while, until a cry of surprise came from outside, breaking the warmth between the two.

"Ah!" A woman fell down by the well, pointing to the well with a pale face and was speechless in horror.
