In the warm pavilion, a sweet smell refreshes the heart. From the southwest road, Fu Youliang, the chief of the Pingxi Prince's Mansion with the pseudonym Gu, knelt on the ground, and felt that the ground dragon in the warm pavilion was very warm. Although it was bitter and cold outside, the room was as warm as spring. Fu Youliang sighed in his heart. In such a cold winter, the lives of the people may be difficult, but the lives of the princes are still so comfortable. No wonder people want to climb to a high position.

Fu Youliang's pair of triangular eyes were not restless, and he looked around at the furnishings in the warm pavilion. Whether it was the screen, tables and chairs, couches, or even the golden plates, makeup mirrors, pen holders, sword holders and maids standing beside him. He looked at them all, and finally his eyes fell on Yan Xuanping, the concubine of the King of Qin, who was tilted on the couch.

The concubine of the Qin King was wearing a plain white palace outfit, with red gold butterfly beads on her head, and leaning against a small celadon pillow behind her waist. Some maids beat their legs and some maids were holding golden plates and carefully feeding her apples cut into small pieces. To be fair, although this princess is over thirty years old, she is indeed somewhat beautiful, with fair skin and beautiful appearance. Of course, if Yan Xuanping is compared with the princess of Pingxi, Ximen Yuxue, she is still unmatched. After all, Ximen Yuxue is known as the number one beauty in the big business.

Yan Xuanping's eyes were a little cold, staring at Fu Youliang who was kneeling on the ground. She didn't let Fu Youliang get up, obviously giving him a warning. Fu Youliang knelt on the ground and laughed: "Princess, no matter what, Xia Guan is a guest from afar, so it's hard to let Xia Guan kneel like this? Is this the way to treat guests in the Qin Palace?"

A maid in green who was standing next to the bed of Princess Qin was glaring at Fu Youliang and scolded loudly: "Bold! What kind of thing are you? How dare you speak like this to the princess!"

Yan Xuanping scolded the maid in green, "Qiugui, don't be rude!" Then Yan Xuanping looked at Fu Youliang and said with a smile: "Our Qin Palace naturally has the Qin Palace's hospitality, but the guests are divided into different levels! For example, after some people came, they bribed the servants of the palace and wanted to see me, but they even got a fake name, saying that their surname was Gu, and they became an unsuccessful little official in the Southwest Road. Do you think that if I give him a seat for such a person?"

Fu Youliang, the chief minister of the Pingxi Prince's Mansion who pretended to be Lord Gu, smiled and said, "Princess is forgivable! The princess is hiding his name, and it is hard to say that he is hidden! After all, the princess comes from the Pingxi Prince's Mansion, and this is the Qin Prince's Mansion. The princess cannot come to see the princess with great fanfare, right? If it spreads like that, it will be bad for the reputation of the two princes, and if they don't do it well, they will say a lot..."

Yan Xuanping restrained her smile and said coldly: "There are no airtight walls in this world? Some things will be known sooner or later! So, if you want to miss others, don't do it yourself. Say it, you came to the Qin Palace on behalf of King Pingxi to see me. What do you have to say? What do you want to do? Let's make an agreement in advance. The military and national affairs of the Qin Palace are not under my jurisdiction. Don't talk about these with me, a woman!"

Fu Youliang refused to answer and looked at Yan Xuanping's side. Seeing this, Yan Xuanping snorted coldly in her nose and said dissatisfiedly: "These people are my confidants. Since I dare to let you come to my warm room, can you not prepare in advance?" The young man who was also kneeling showed an unaware smile on his lips. The concubine of the King of Qin had accidentally told some of her secrets.

When Fu Youliang heard Yan Xuanping say this, he smiled and said with a gentle smile: "Although Southwest Road is located in a remote location, my prince is still thinking of Aunt Xuanping and His younger brother Zhide, who are far away in Guannei Road. This time, the official came to pay homage to the empress. It was exactly what my prince meant. The prince asked the official to bring a pair of pearls and a pair of jade bis to present it to the princess!" As he said that, Fu Youliang took out a brocade box from his arms, and the young man behind him also took out a brocade box from his arms. The two knelt on the ground and presented the brocade box with both hands.

The maid Qiugui stepped forward and took two brocade boxes. Yan Xuanping was a little confused. She sat up from the couch and asked softly: "I have never had any contact with Prince Pingxi. What is the purpose of him suddenly giving me such a precious gift? As the saying goes, if you receive me for nothing, you should take these gifts back and thank your prince when you go back! I just say that his gifts are too expensive and I dare not accept them! Otherwise, once the King of Qin knows that I have received Prince Pingxi's gifts, I will definitely blame me!"

Fu Youliang waved his hand quickly and said, "Some little gifts are not worth mentioning! The princess should not be careless. You said that it is a gift that is given to goose feathers thousands of miles away, and the gift is light and affectionate! My prince originally wanted to come to see his aunt in person, but the vassal regulations stated that the princes must not leave their fiefdom without orders, so they could not make a move. This allowed the princes to take a trip on behalf of the prince. Now when the princess saw the princess, he had conveyed the greetings of my princes to my aunt and younger brother. The prince's wish was fulfilled, and the prince also surrendered!" Fu Youliang kowtowed again, holding the ground and standing up.

Yan Xuanping sneered and said, "Mr. Fu, I'm busy, too. I think we don't need to play hide-and-seek, and guess each other's thoughts, right?" Fu Youliang raised his head and looked at Yan Xuanping's side again. Yan Xuanping understood and nodded, "Give him a seat to you, Lord Fu, you can retreat first, Qiu Gui stayed alone!"

The maids nodded and said yes, the maids brought two embroidered slurred sea water to Fu Youliang and the others, leaving only the maid Qiugui and the others standing next to Yan Xuanping's couch. Fu Youliang and the other two thanked each other and sat down safely.

Yan Xuanping then said again: "Mr. Fu, I am a real person. Let's open the skylight and speak loudly. What is your purpose in this trip to me?"

Fu Youliang looked at Yan Xuanping's face, smiled and bowed, and asked sincerely: "The princess, the prince hurried to the Qin Palace from the southwest road under the order of the prince. He came to the forum of the empress and His Highness Zhide. Now the empress and His Highness Zhide are in danger. Do you even know it?"

Yan Xuanping was startled at first, then sneered: "Don't talk bad about it there, you're exaggerating! As the Princess of Qin, my son is the youngest and most beloved son of the King of Qin. What's the danger to me? Your Prince Pingxi, who is determined to rebel, must consider his own head!"

Fu Youliang laughed and said, "The Princess is such a bad thing! My prince wants to do big things for a long time, and whether it is successful or not is destiny. Since he wants to do big things, how can he care about his head? He should bet on his entire life, but the Princess is in trouble at the moment!"

Yan Xuanping said a little dissatisfied: "You said it straight, don't beat around the bush, I don't like to guess!"

Fu Youliang stood up, took two steps in the room, and then said slowly: "Princess, Your Highness, the King of Qin, is seriously ill this time, and it is not as usual. Once King Qin Bintian, who should inherit the position of King Qin?"

Yan Xuanping smiled and said disapprovingly: "This is a good question! There is an eldest son in the family and a crown prince in the country. If one day the prince dies, it will naturally be the crown prince who ascends the throne. What's there to say?"

Fu Youliang sneered: "I heard that in recent times, all things in the Qin Palace must be handled by the Empress. The Empress's status in the palace is unparalleled. But once the Prince Yin Zhisheng ascended the throne and became the King of Qin, can the Princess and Empress still maintain a position of more than ten thousand people in the Qin Palace as today?"

Yan Xuanping smiled and said, "When I was young, I read a few books and knew that there was a saying in poetry that 'People and affairs have metabolism, and the relationship has become ancient and modern'. It was natural for the prince to ascend the throne. My son is the brother of the new prince, and I am the concubine of the old Qin king. Naturally, I am enjoying my old age in the royal palace! Now the prince is seriously ill and trusts me and lets me take charge of all and big affairs in the royal palace. Can I still dominate the authority of the royal palace forever?"

Fu Youliang looked heartbroken and shook his head and said, "No! No! The prince now loves his youngest son. Can't His Royal Highness Zhide fight for the position of this prince? After all, the Empress is not the biological mother of His Royal Highness now! The lower official heard that His Royal Highness has always lived in Wuping County and has not returned to the Qin Prince's Mansion because he is not in harmony with the Princess, and the lower official also heard that His Royal Highness has complained about the Princess..."

Yan Xuanping said angrily: "Fu Youliang! Don't alienate the relationship between us mother and son!"

Fu Youliang sneered, "Mother and son? I'm sorry, the emperor is just a concubine, but he is not the princess of the Qin prince! If you treat someone as your son, he is the son of the prince, will you treat you as a mother? I heard that the prince's younger brother Yan Xuanhe fought with His Highness in Wuping County for land affairs, which made the prince hate him to the core. The prince really doesn't worry that after the prince ascended the throne, it will be unfavorable to the Yan family and the Queen, and then it will be unfavorable to His Highness Zhide?"

Fu Youliang suddenly whispered again: "Besides, I heard the rumor that the Empress had a good friend back then, and the surname was Zuo. Could it be that if the prince or prince know about this, can the Empress still maintain her current status?"

When Yan Xuanping heard this, her face turned red and white, and she was ashamed, and her chest was undulating. After a while, she said helplessly: "Since ancient times, the legitimate ones did not establish a concubine, and the elders did not establish a young child! Even if I have the will, I am powerless. Even if the current prince cannot ascend the throne, Zhide still has two brothers! Zhide is young, but only ten years old. What kind of De can he replace three brothers to be the prince? Instead of being foolish, it is better to be down-to-earth and recognize the reality!"

Fu Youliang laughed, took a few steps, came to the sword frame, reached out to take off the scabbard, and the maid Qiu Gui said in shock: "Bold, what are you going to do?"

Fu Youliang shook his head and said with a smile: "Miss Qiugui doesn't have to misunderstand!" Fu Youliang grabbed the scabbard with his left hand and said aloud: "Empress, sculpting."

There is such a sword. This sword is closest to the Queen at this time, and the Queen is at your fingertips! Now the prince is seriously ill and the prince is away. The Queen in the palace is just talking about it and does not take advantage of this time. Should she wait for the Prince Bintian and the Prince to return to the Prince's Mansion to ascend the throne? By then, it will be too late!"

Yan Xuanping looked helpless and said with a trembling voice: "I am a woman, even if I have the will, I am powerless. Can I change the prince's meaning? Or can I depose the prince? My eldest brother has just become a third-rank minister in the court. In this imperial family, what is a third-rank official?"

Fu Youliang held the hilt of the sword in his right hand and smiled: "My lady, please think, my prince is in the southwest and is as clear as the situation inside the pass! If the queen is willing to let His Highness Zhide become the prince, my prince will help him! As for the prince now..." Fu Youliang showed a fierce look on his face, drew out his sword, and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Yan Xuanping hurriedly stood up from the couch and waved his hand in a panic and said, "Fu Youliang, don't say anything more! This matter is very important, and it will be fine if it is spread? Although I am favored by the prince, I am just a concubine after all! If the news of our mother and son planning for the throne is spread, the prince will have to depose me! Even if King Pingxi is powerful, this place is a Guannei Road after all, and even if he wants to help, he is afraid that it will be out of reach!"

Fu Youliang sneered, "Empress's words are bad! How do we know the news that the King of Qin is seriously ill? Do you think your Qin Palace is a solid piece? The Blood Shadow Hall in our Pingxi Palace is everywhere, from the imperial palace in Yong'an City to the restaurants and tea shops in big and small towns, there may be spies from our Blood Shadow Hall! Our King of Wei Palace and the King of Qin Palace are also our people! Therefore, at this critical moment, the officials will appear here! When the failure is constantly, you will suffer. Empress, the matter is urgent, please think twice!"

Yan Xuanping pondered for a while, with a tangled and painful expression. Fu Youliang was not in a hurry and quietly waited for Yan Xuanping to reply. The warm pavilion was so quiet that the sound of the embroidery needle falling to the ground. After a long time, Yan Xuanping glanced at Fu Youliang, fell on the couch, and sighed: "Then tell me, if Prince Pingxi was willing to help us mother and son, what conditions would he have to offer?"

Fu Youliang put the sword back on the sword rack and shook his head and said, "Empress, the reason why my prince is willing to help the prince is completely because of the unfair treatment he received! The prince is beautiful and virtuous, and even the people of the Southwest Road know that over the years, the King of Qin has received more help from the Queen, so why can't the Queen be the King of Qin? If the Queen becomes the King of Qin and the Prince makes a will, what's wrong with making the Queen's son Zhide the prince!"

Yan Xuanping smiled bitterly and said, "The prince and the old princess have a deep love. We who are concubines and concubines live in the shadow of the old princess all our lives. The old princess gave birth to three sons, and the eldest prince died young. The second princess became fathers to save the prince in the rebellion to wipe out the Shannan King, and sacrificed his life for the country. Now the old princess and the prince's third son Yin Zhisheng have become princesses. Zhisheng is filial and has no fault. How could the prince depose Zhisheng's position and let Zhide be the prince?"

Fu Youliang sat back on the embroidery dormitory and smiled and said, "Empress, the matter is due to human affairs! Now the prince is not in harmony with the prince, and is afraid that the prince will harm him, so he hides in Wuping County and returns to the Qin Palace without any trouble. Isn't this the prince's opportunity? Can't the prince change his mind and make a will? Can't that prince encounter an accident? As long as the prince has an accident and the prince has a will, what are the other two princes? Even if they really don't agree at that time, my prince can stand up and support the prince!"

Yan Xuanping hesitated for a while and looked up and said, "I don't believe that King Pingxi has no intention. Since I want to cooperate, please offer the conditions for King Pingxi!"

Fu Youliang looked at the young man behind him. The young man behind him stood up with a smile and pulled his skin down, but it was a very handsome face. This face, with the face of Yin Quan, the King of Pingxi and the eyebrows of Ximen Yuxue, was indescribable. The handsome young man bowed and said, "The Prince Yin Yueheng, the Prince of Pingxi, has seen the princess and grandmother!"

Yan Xuanping said in surprise: "Criminal of Pingxi? Why did you come to the Qin Palace?"

Yin Yueheng smiled warmly and said softly: "The father was afraid that the princess and grandmother would not trust Lord Fu, so he came with his grandson and Lord Fu! The princess and grandmother just worry. It has been a day or two for the father to cooperate with grandmother. The father only has one requirement, that is, once the uncle Zhide becomes the King of Qin, when the Pingxi Palace raises troops north, as long as the Qin Palace can not send troops, it is good to not help the court and Pingxi Palace! There is no other request!"
