Chapter 422 Dangerous
Prince Jin's Mansion, Study Room.

King Jin was leaning on the couch, reading with a booklet in his hand, following the content of the file, the prince's brows became deeper and deeper.

Just a "snap" was heard, and the book was thrown on the table by King Jin.

The few confidant ministers below didn't say anything, only Lord An came out and said: "My lord, please calm down. Liu Fang is not worth being angry. The important thing is that the fifth prince is now the new king of Liang. His ambition is clearly revealed. In the future Many courtiers must belong to him, this is a great trouble for the prince."

King Jin remained calm and rubbed his brows.

It was a big surprise that Xiao Ziyuan was granted the title of King of Liang overnight and was reused by his father.However, he was persuading himself in his heart, he is his good brother all the time, he has saved himself, how can he feel jealous because he is reused, and even have a rift between brothers.

He didn't want this only, deep brotherhood since childhood to be completely irreversible.

After a long time, the King of Jin said: "My fifth brother is twenty-two this year. He should have been crowned king at this age. He is meticulous and talented. It is reasonable for the father to reuse him."

Here, Mr. An, Lu Hou and others couldn't understand.

"My lord has always been cautious. Why do you keep believing in the fifth prince now? People's hearts will change. He was not in this position before. Now that he is the king of Liang, he will be a competitor of the lord."

Xiao Zijun breathed a sigh of relief, and today he suddenly hesitated, whether he should continue to fight for this seat.

Father has always been on guard against him while being important to him. If the result of fighting or not fighting is the same, why should he still fight?
What would happen to the father if he kept abandoning himself from the crown prince?Don't you still have the heart of rebellion?
At this time, King Jin didn't have the slightest intention of rebelling, and he had always hoped that his father would see his efforts.

King Jin fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he suddenly asked, "Did the second and fifth have any contact recently?"

"There has been contact all the time, I'm afraid the two have secretly colluded."

"What about the case in Qingping Town?"

"As the prince expected, King Song had contact with Xiao Ziyuan about the case in Qingping Town."

A look of surprise flashed in King Jin's eyes,

Could it be that the case in Qingping Town really has something to do with Lao Wu?This case has been going on for a long time, and it was finally closed in a hurry, but there are many doubts.

"Give me a copy of the file of that case carefully."

Finally, Lu Hou handed King Jin a letter, "My lord, this is an invitation letter from General Zhennanhou Southwest to my lord, as if I want to make friends with my lord."

The King of Jin remembered Yang Jing, the great general of the Southwest, who held a heavy army, and his father had long been concerned about him.Right now, I can't win him over, otherwise, my father would be displeased.

"Push it off." King Jin said casually, frowned slightly, and said after a while, "How about this, the letter said that the king is too busy to go to the banquet recently, and if there is a chance in the future, the king will personally entertain General Yang."

When all the officials left, King Jin lay on his back on the king's couch, with his eyes closed, his brows furrowed deeply, and he felt a little headache.

There's been so much going on lately that I can't breathe.

Previously, there was no good progress in Shanglinyuan's own attack.It's not that he has no doubts about Xiao Ziyuan in his heart, but that he doesn't want to face this reality, he doesn't want to see the situation of being betrayed by his brother.

It would be fine if Xiao Ziyuan competed secretly with him, but Jin Wang was worried that Xiao Ziyuan and Xiao Zizhan had united.

Suddenly there was a cool hand on the brow, soft and slender.

He didn't make a sound, didn't open his eyes, he just rubbed his brows with his hands, which was very comfortable.

After a long time, he finally reached out and grabbed her hand, "I don't even say hello when I enter the study."

Looking back, she saw that she was newly wearing the Chaoyun Jinxiang bun, her skin was like white porcelain, her eyes were full of affection, so gentle that she couldn't melt water, it was different from the previous situation, and she was pleasantly surprised, so she couldn't help but pulled her into her arms, and moved closer. Sniffing her ear, "What fragrance?"

She smiled softly, "My lord has a sharp nose." As she spoke, she slowly pushed his arm away and said to the door, "Come in."

The maidservant brought a jade bowl to the plate, and gently took it over, "My lord, how about this soup?"

Xiao Zijun wanted to be intimate, but when he saw that it was a bowl of soup, he felt a little disappointed, so he took a spoonful and tasted it flatteringly, and raised his eyebrows, "Not bad. You made it?"

"Of course. Otherwise, why should I come here now?"

Xiao Zijun was happy in his heart, and looked at her, "Since when have you been so considerate?"

She spat lightly, "My concubine is always considerate."

"My lord goes back to rest very late these days. I heard from Fuquan that the lights are always on in the book house, so—"

While drinking, King Jin picked up the conversation after hearing the soft words, "So, it is this king who neglected you to keep the empty room. Is this bowl of soup for me to nourish my body?"

"Well, that's right. The king has already understood Madam's wishes, and I will definitely go back early tonight."

Ning Weiqing's cheeks turned red, and she wanted to explain, but hesitated, "No, no... I feel sorry for the prince..."

It was night, and sure enough, King Jin went back to Qixia Pavilion to rest early.

The night is lingering, and the spring night is short.

When Ning woke up gently, the room was full of morning light, she turned her head, and the side of the couch was already empty.She knew that he had gone to the morning court.

For the first time, Ning Qingwei felt guilty.

Xiao Zijun had to get up early every day to go to court, but he seldom served him personally. She always slept in, and he loved him so much that he never woke her up.Wei Wei felt that she should do more for him.

It was getting dark today, and King Jin hadn't come back, Qing Wei was a little unaccustomed to it.

During these days, Xiao Zijun would come back to his study in the afternoon, and even if he didn't come back, he would send a message back.

For no reason, her heart was a little panicked, and her eyelids kept twitching.

The Spring Festival Gala came in, "Ma'am, the dinner has been reheated twice."

"Wait a little longer." Feeling slightly uneasy, she looked outside, "What time is it?"

"You have seen it with your eyes."

Gently nodded, "What did Fu Quanke find out?"

"Eunuch Fu didn't come back. Don't worry about it, master. There must be a delay in the palace. I'm afraid I'll use up the dinner. Master, let's eat some food first."

Gently looking at the bright moonlight outside, I had no choice but to agree to have dinner.

However, only a few dishes were served, and I sat lightly, unable to eat.

Not long after, Fu Quan came back, "Ma'am, don't wait any longer. Your Majesty left the prince for dinner, and now he asked him to play chess with him after eating. The prince couldn't get out and asked me to come back. He said Madam don't wait, maybe Come back late."

Gently let go of the heart, and ate up those few favorite meals in a short while.Then I read a book under the lamp for a while and felt eye pain, so I washed up and went to sleep.

The season is early spring and February, and the temperature is still a bit cold.

Wrapping the quilt lightly, she heard the rain seem to be ticking outside, making a muffled "dong dong" sound on the glazed tiles outside, and gradually she fell asleep.

At some point, she woke up suddenly, and the surroundings were pitch black. She knew that it was very late at night, and the maidservant had rested.At this time, the courtyard seemed to be noisy.

Qingqing got up in the dark first, put on her clothes, and when the Spring Festival Gala heard the sound, she stumbled, "Hold the lamp and hear that the prince is coming back outside."

It is indeed the person who came back, but not Xiao Zijun.

"Ma'am! Something serious has happened!" It was Gao Ming who came.
