How could a little chamberlain have the courage to murder the fifth prince? What's more, such a precise layout is beyond the reach of a small chamberlain. There must be someone behind it.

Who could it be?

Guan Yubai lowered his eyes slightly, thinking deeply.

The third prince made the effort to pray for rain. Once something happened to the fifth prince, he would not be able to escape the blame, and the emperor would probably directly express his anger. Now he has long lost the favor of the emperor, and his influence in the court is weak. Even if the fifth prince is gone, he will not be able to take the throne, and he will only make a mess.

The eldest prince has a reckless temperament. It is very possible that he bribed the chamberlain to push the fifth prince down the steps on impulse. However, this matter was done extremely carefully, which is not his style of dealing with things.

So...

Is it the second prince Han Lingguan?

The second prince has always been good at hiding. He is not as reckless as the eldest prince, nor does he show off everything to others like the third prince. He has always been cautious and meticulous in doing things, which is quite in line with his style.

"Chirp——"

A childish cry interrupted Guan Yubai's thoughts. The sound came from the table by the window, and he saw a fluffy white eagle poking its head out of the bamboo basket. He woke up from his sleep. Finally, it opened its sharp yellow beak and screamed pitifully...

The slight sound immediately attracted several attention-seeking eyes. From Guan Yubai and Xiaosi in the room to Xiao Hui outside the room, they all looked towards the table.

Xiao Hui flapping his wings and flew down from the tree in the courtyard, stopped on the window sill, and lovingly pecked the down under Xiao Hanyu's wings.

Xiao Si looked at Xiao Hui with disgust and was thinking about driving it away when he saw Guan Yubai walking towards the window, stretching out an index finger and rubbing Han Yu's neck. Han Yu immediately pushed Xiao Hui away. The head came closer.

On weekdays, most of the time Xiao Si takes care of it, but Han Yu is the closest to Guan Yubai. As soon as he feels Guan Yubai's breath, his "chirp—" cry becomes even more pitiful, as if There is also a hint of coquettishness.

Xiao Si went to the side and brought a large celadon bowl over and placed it on the table. Inside was half a bowl of diced meat with bloodshot eyes.

Guan Yubai picked up the diced meat with chopsticks, as if he was feeding Han Yu leisurely.

Xiao Hui tilted his neck and stared at him coldly with a pair of golden eagle eyes.

Han Yu was obviously hungry and ate one bite quickly.

Guan Yubai looked at Han Yu with soft eyes. Just like Han Yu, the fifth prince today is just a fragile young eagle, attached to the eagle of the emperor. Before he was fully fledged, he had already been taken from him. Thrown down from a high place... it depends on his life whether he can fly again.

If the fifth prince really cannot escape this disaster, then the situation in the royal capital will inevitably undergo earth-shaking changes...

After a while, half the bowl of diced pork had been eaten completely. Guan Yubai wiped his hands with a white towel and returned to the desk.

If this matter was really done by the second prince, then he should try to frame the eldest prince and blame the whole thing on the eldest prince...

Guan Yubai is not very interested in the battle for the reserve, but if he wants to live a stable life in southern Xinjiang, there are still some things that cannot be out of control.

He quickly wrote a letter on a piece of silk paper, carefully folded it and put it into a small bamboo tube, and said: "Xiao Si, send this letter for me. Then ask Baihui to bring one Words..." As he spoke, Guan Yubai explained in detail how the fifth prince was injured and his current condition.

Xiao Si responded, took out a gray pigeon from the pigeon cage, and carefully tied the bamboo tube around its leg.

He glanced at the gray eagle that was preening its feathers on the table, took the opportunity to release the doves, and then went to find Baihui...

When Nangong Yue heard Baihui’s words, she was stunned. Her hand couldn’t help shaking, and a mask she had just picked up fell into a pot full of medicinal juice. It was boiling hot. The liquid splashed up, leaving mottled drug stains on her purple skirt.

"... Young Master said that the Second Young Master offered you the life-saving pills you left, and His Highness the Fifth Prince is safe for the time being."

After Baihui finished speaking and saw that Nangong Yue had not moved for a long time, she picked up another pair of long chopsticks on her own, picked up the mask that had just been dropped, and skillfully put it on the dripper aside to drip the concoction.

Nangong Yue came back to her senses and sighed: "What else did the official say?"

Baihui responded: "Young Master said that he has sent people to pay attention to the movements in the royal capital. If there is any change in the condition of the fifth prince, he will inform you."

Nangong Yue nodded and said no more.

She lowered her head and carefully inspected the mask, stirred the pot of concoction again, checked the heat, and said, "Huamei, take this pot of concoction to the front yard."

A large amount of medicinal materials have not been delivered yet, but there are still medicinal materials in reserve in Yanding City. Yesterday, the military came forward to recruit some doctors in Yanding City. Early this morning, the doctors came with their apprentices. Most of these apprentices were orphans in the city. Although it was Nangong Yue's suggestion to let the doctors take in some orphans as apprentices, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai finally agreed after discussing it. The apprentices are not only doctors, but also some craftsmen, such as blacksmiths, carpenters, weavers, embroidery workshops, etc... This gives some orphans in the city something to rely on.

Of course, this kind of recruitment is voluntary.

Although craftsmen need to pass on their craftsmanship, orphans need to have a craft to make a living.

Now, these doctors and apprentices who were urgently recruited as military doctors have done a great favor to the Southern Xinjiang Army.

This pot of concoction was prepared by Nangong Yue himself. Today, let them help soak and dry the masks to let the doctors get used to it.

Huamei hurriedly went to do it. Baihui handed her a wet cloth to wipe her hands and said, "Prince Princess, do you want to rest for a while?"

"No." Nangong Yue shook her head, "Get it done as soon as possible, so as not to miss important military events..."

The batch of pills sent from Luoyue City were put into the warehouse after being counted yesterday. This is already the third batch. The previous two batches were personally inspected by Nangong Yue before being sent to Yanding City. But now this batch Of course, it needs to be approved by her before it can be distributed.

Nangong Yue and Bai Hui were walking on the way to the warehouse, still thinking about the fifth prince.

The life-saving pills she left behind can indeed protect the heart in an emergency, but this does not mean that it can cure the disease, especially since the fifth prince was critically ill due to a fall on his head. The life-saving pills alone will not be able to cure the disease. use.

Nangong Yue was still very happy to see that little prince when he first met him, after escaping a life-and-death disaster, he gradually grew up. But now... could this be fate? ?

Nangong Yue is in a very low mood. She is now far away in southern Xinjiang, and she has more than enough ambition but not enough energy.

Most of the fifth prince's illness can be treated with silver needles as the main treatment, supplemented by decoctions, but the acupuncture points on the head are very important, and there can be no mistakes. Even if you get his pulse record, you can't see him with your own eyes. Before the situation, it was difficult for Nangong Yue to decide on a diagnosis and treatment plan.

"Prince Princess." Baihui called, "The warehouse is here."

Nangong Yue calmed down. This batch of medicine is of great importance and there must be no mistakes.

The moment she entered the warehouse, she was fully focused.

After spending an afternoon, Nangong Yue checked all the medicines one by one, and then asked Baihui to take one of the small boxes and destroy them.

On that day, Guan Yubai gave the order to distribute the medicine.

The crown prince Xiao Yi led 20,000 people to the expedition. Today, there are three battalions of cruising, first ascending, and selected vanguards outside Yanding City as defense. There are a total of 5,000 people in the three battalions. Once the enemy makes any large-scale movements, they will not be able to escape their eyes and ears.

The garrison in Yanding City, including the Divine Arm Battalion, also numbered 5,000.

With a total of 10,000 defenders, there will be no problem facing a small-scale enemy raid. Even if the enemy invades in a large scale, it will take at least one day and one night to march from Dengli City to Yanding City. There are three battalions. Patrolling guards, they will be discovered before approaching the boundaries of Yanding City. Yanding City can also enter martial law immediately. It only needs to be guarded for two or three days, and the prince Xiao Yi can lead the army to return in time.

Therefore, Yanding City must be worry-free.

It is mid-November, the most prosperous season for Qianmanlan. More pollen falls along the Yanlai River Basin, which has a great impact on the Third Battalion stationed outside. Therefore, whenever medicine comes, it is always given priority. These three camps. This time was no exception. Guan Yubai took the decision and sent all the medicine to the third camp.

No need to be convinced by the "acclimatization", the soldiers of the third battalion naturally cheered.

Nangong Yue breathed a sigh of relief after completing this important task. In the following days, she began to teach the doctors in the city how to prepare medicinal juice. Two days later, Luo Yuecheng sent a large amount of medicinal materials, and the doctors also They all got their hands on it, and soon, a mask soaked in concoction was hung to dry...

Time passed quickly in the busyness. On that night, outside Yanding City and northeast of Yulan Mountain, a group of hundreds of Nanliang elite soldiers walked silently at night, coming from a mountain The trail goes around the mountain and reaches the middle and upper reaches of the Yanlai River.

At this moment, the sky is bright, and the sky looks gray-blue, with only a half-moon-shaped golden light shining in the east...

"Commander," several agile spies came back after exploring the route, "the younger ones have searched the area for a mile, and no one from the Southern Xinjiang Army has been seen."

The team was led by a lean middle-aged captain. Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that their whereabouts had not been exposed.

The lesson learned from the annihilation of Lieutenant General Conanli's army in the swamp area is still before his eyes. What the captain fears most is to repeat the same mistake - and fall into an ambush by the Southern Xinjiang Army.

They can't make any more mistakes!

"Hurry up and act!"

After the commander gave the order, hundreds of elite soldiers took action, took off the baggage from their backs, and scattered the powder in the baggage toward the river...

The milky white powder was like a blanket of goose feather snow, falling down with the cold wind, and finally fell into the clear river water, disappearing with the gurgling water, as if it had never existed Generally...

The corners of the captain's mouth raised slightly, revealing a sinister smile.

Except for the wells in Yanding City, the Yanlai River is the only water source for several miles. According to the news from Baolach, the battalions stationed outside the city basically send people one after another around Chen time. Come to the river to get water. It is now half past nine o'clock, and the scattered powder will go downstream with the water, and then be taken away by the Southern Xinjiang Army, and they will only think that the powder in the water is Qianmanlan pollen... The opportunity is fleeting, they must Hurry!

At this time, a spy on guard hurried over and reported with clasped fists: "Captain, there are about ten people from the Southern Xinjiang Army coming this way..."

The other party seems to have arrived early... The commander frowned and made a gesture to signal his brothers to retreat hurriedly, while he himself led two soldiers to the rear, making sure that no trace of powder was left nearby. Finally, the three of them quickly climbed to several big trees.

After a while, I saw fifteen or six soldiers from the Southern Xinjiang Army walking towards this side carrying buckets, talking and laughing, seemingly unprepared.

The three Nanliang people hiding in the tree held their breath unconsciously and remained motionless.

The dozen or so soldiers of the Southern Xinjiang Army soon stopped by the river. Not far away, the captain of Nanliang, who was hiding in a tree, stared at them with shining eyes and said silently in his heart: Get water quickly! Get water quickly!

Seeing those soldiers leaning over to scoop up water from the river with buckets, there was another sound not far away, and some more soldiers from the Southern Xinjiang Army came over, some carrying buckets and some holding water bags. ... These two groups of people were obviously acquaintances, and they greeted each other regardless of the water in their clothes. It seemed that the captain of Nanliang was secretly happy that the news Baolah had given was good, but on the other hand he was very anxious.

Fortunately, the soldiers only said a few words casually, then each fetched water and returned the same way with the filled buckets and water bags...

It wasn't until their figures completely disappeared in the woods that the captain and the two soldiers quickly got off the tree.

One of the dark-skinned soldiers couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Captain, it's not yet midnight. Those southern Xinjiang troops must have just gotten up. After a while, there will definitely be more people along the river to fetch water. By then, ..."

As he said that, the soldiers couldn't help but think of the fate of those southern Xinjiang troops, and their blood boiled.

The captain glanced in the direction of Yulan Mountain and said: "Let's go, let's go to meet the five kings!"

Calculating the time, the 20,000 troops led by the five kings should be able to arrive within an hour. By then, all the Southern Xinjiang troops stationed outside Yanding City have been poisoned, and their Nanliang troops can march straight in and close in. Arrive at Yanding City.

Xiao Yi has taken away most of the troops in Yanding City. After excluding the soldiers stationed outside the city, the number of Southern Xinjiang Army garrison soldiers left in the city is only four to five thousand at most, compared with their twenty thousand Southern troops. Compared with Liang's army, it is like hitting an egg against a stone.

Xiao Yiyuan is in Yongjia City. Even if he rushes back after receiving a request for help, it will be too late!

What's more, they still have an important chess piece...

With "it", let alone one day, I'm afraid it won't take half a day to defeat the city!

Yanding City will definitely return to their Nanliang hands again!

The more the commander thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but glance in the direction of Yanding City...

At this moment, people began to travel on the streets of Yanding City one after another, and another new day began.

The main entrance of the garrison mansion was wide open. Sun Xinyi and maid Caiwei were welcomed into the mansion with a smile by a woman in green clothes. She led the master and servant to the second gate, where they saw a green-covered carriage already parked there. Several women were waiting aside, busy loading a few baskets onto the carriage.

The woman in green who led the way said politely: "Miss Sun, please wait here for a moment. The Crown Princess and Miss Han will be here soon."

Sun Xinyi raised her eyes and looked forward, and saw Nangong Yue and Han Qixia walking hand in hand, talking and laughing.

Sun Xinyi's eyes paused on Han Qixia, and an almost imperceptible coldness flashed in her eyes.

She never thought of inviting Han Qixia at first, but that day, when she left the garrison mansion, she happened to meet Han Qixia, and suddenly an idea flashed.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Han Qixia. The Nanliang people wanted to target the Crown Princess, but Han Qixia's existence was really too troublesome for herself.

As long as Han Qixia is gone, he and Fu Yunhe will have a chance!

Recalling the scenes in the past few days, Sun Xinyi gritted her teeth, and a flash of cruelty flashed in her eyes. She blamed Han Qixia for insisting on going against her. Don't blame herself for borrowing a knife to kill someone! ...She forced herself to do all this!

Sun Xinyi was thinking this in her heart, but with a gentle and warm smile on her face, she took a few steps forward and saluted the two of them with a smile: "I have met the Crown Princess, Miss Han."

After the three people greeted each other, they got on the green-covered carriage one by one. After a while, the carriage slowly drove out from the garrison and went along Dong'an Street towards the front city gate...

In the carriage, Sun Xinyi sat opposite Nangong Yue, looking at the carriage without any trace. From the outside, this carriage looks ordinary, but when you sit inside, you can tell that this carriage is specially designed. The interior of the carriage is wider and more comfortable than it looks on the outside. Even if there are three masters and two maids, it is not a bit cramped. Doesn't look crowded.

Moreover, the various arrangements from curtains, carpets to box benches, etc. are all very elegant, low-key but not luxurious. Even the carriage runs much more smoothly than ordinary carriages.

Sun Xinyi can be sure that even when his father Sun Shoubei was alive, the carriage of his legitimate mother, Mrs. Sun, could not compare to this one...

Since Nangong Yue came to Yanding City, she has always behaved in a simple and low-key manner. Even though Sun Xinyi knew that the status of the other party was much higher than hers, she did not feel the huge gap. It was not until this moment that she suddenly caught a glimpse of it. .

The other party is the Crown Princess, and she is different from her in terms of identity, status, food and clothing... no matter in the past or now.

Sun Xinyi half-closed her eyes, hiding the strange color in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Prince Concubine, Miss Han, I made some snacks with my own hands this morning, and I invite you two to taste them."

While she was speaking, the maid Caiwei had already opened the food box, and saw several plates of jujube and yam cakes placed in the mahogany food box. They were exquisitely and cutely made, making people move their index fingers just looking at them...

In the carriage, the girls were chatting and laughing; outside the carriage, the streets were empty, with only a few pedestrians passing by occasionally. A middle-aged coachman in a green shorts raised his whip and set off from time to time, shouting: "Drive——"

"Da da da..."

The garrison mansion was not far from the city gate. After a while, the carriage came to Shunde Street, which leads directly to the city gate. There was a sudden noise from all around, and only the sound of rapid footsteps was heard outside. Several people ran, While shouting:

"The Nanliang army is coming!"

"The Nanliang army is approaching the city!"

"..."

The coachman slowed down his horse with a "hush" sound, and asked somewhat at a loss: "Miss Baihui..."

"Brother Yang, please pull over first."

Baihui glanced at Nangong Yue and hurriedly gave instructions to the driver.

The carriage slowly stopped on the side of the road. Nangong Yue lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out, only to see that the Shunde street outside had become a mess.

"Tap tap tap..."

Led by the soldiers, groups of soldiers from the Southern Xinjiang Army ran quickly towards the city gate from all directions, and then stepped onto the city wall with rumbles of footsteps. After a while, the city wall was filled with rows of soldiers. Some held up their repeating crossbows, or drew out their long knives, or set up their arrows... All of them were ready to go, but just looking at their backs from below, I felt a strong sense of crisis.

At the same time, thousands of soldiers from the Southern Xinjiang Army came in like a tide, densely packed and packed with heads.

Sun Xinyi opened the curtains on the other side of the carriage and looked at the city wall in the distance. Then she slowly moved her gaze downwards and looked at the frightened people nearby. Her eyes flickered, and for a moment, her eyes became firmer.

"Are the people from Nanliang really here?" Not far away, a young man in his twenties said in fear.

"That's a lie." A middle-aged aunt beside him frowned and said, "Since our Yanding City was recaptured, when have you ever seen the Southern Xinjiang Army so alert?!" The people of Nanliang sent envoys over, which meant they sent out hundreds of soldiers.

"But didn't the prince lead his troops to attack Dengli City?" The young man became more and more nervous, and said with a trembling voice, "Why is this Nanliang man here again? Is it possible that the prince is here again?" He..."

"Don't talk nonsense!" A middle-aged man in his forties walked up to the young man and interrupted him coldly, "The prince is wise and powerful, he will definitely defeat the people of Nanliang!" As he said, The young man clenched his fist fiercely, gritted his molars and said, "The people from Nanliang killed my children and grandchildren, and if I don't avenge them, I can't be considered a man!"

"That's right!" An old man with white hair and beard also echoed, "Even if I die, I have to let a Nanliang man be buried with me!" As he said that, he had already pulled out the hatchet from his waist. , a pair of turbid old eyes, gleaming with hatred.

Seeing the people being furious, Sun Xinyi's eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, and she thought: It's really overestimating one's capabilities.
