Chapter 493

Yuan Zheng and Yan Nan came outside.

"Do you go back first or wait for my dad?" Yan Nan turned her head and asked in a low voice.

Yuan Zheng looked at the sky and said, "It's almost noon. I guess the prince will leave Master Shaozai for lunch. I'll send you back first."

The little eunuch beside them heard clearly, smiled and led them straight outwards.

Until he left the palace gate, Yuan Zheng sent Yan Nan onto the carriage. While no one was paying attention, he also stepped onto the carriage and met Yan Nan on his side.

"What's wrong?" Yan Nan's expression immediately became solemn. Just now, Yuan Zheng's meaning showed that what he wanted to say was inconvenient to say anywhere in the palace.

"Do you still remember the secret letter that Qingshan got from Liu Wei's study? The letter asking Liu Wei to find a way to secretly send the Lin family army to the Northern Barbarian trap."

Yuan Zheng asked in a low voice.

A light flashed in Yan Nan's mind. How was her whole mind activated the flying cabin. When Yuan Zheng asked, he suddenly turned to Yuan Zheng and opened his mouth in surprise, "You said that the letter should be forged by someone, that person... Could it be?"

She raised her sleeves and covered her mouth, her shock overwhelmed her words.

Yuan Zheng's voice calmed down, with pain in his eyes, "I always felt that Emperor Yongning went north to personally fight and fell into the hands of the Northern Barbarians, and the fake secret letter at Liu Wei further confirmed this."

"And the person who wrote this secret letter must also be a collusion with the Northern Barbarians." He continued slowly, "This person, first of all, has the motivation to get rid of the official family. Secondly, he must know the whereabouts of the official family. Again, he has the ability to penetrate the letters between the official family and the court. So."

He stopped.

"Prince Zhong, everything is in line." Yan Nan continued with a trembling voice, gently holding Yuan Zheng's hand.

Prince Zhong’s plan to seize the emperor should have begun planning after Liang Zhan was reborn seventeen years ago.

With Liang Zhan, a strategist by his side, it would be easier to betray the official!

"Maybe he wanted to use the Northern Barbarians to take the life of the official family." Yuan Zheng slowly analyzed, "or he even betrayed the official family in his previous life and then sold the Lin family army. But later he saw that the prince was more decisive than he had imagined, and he took over the power of the government first. At that time, the prince thought that Cui Geng would help him. With Prince Zhong's strength at that time, he was not enough to compete with the prince. So he took the second move. He took the initiative to let Xiao Qi be a hostage and exchanged the official family back to the official family. Because he knew that according to Liang Zhan, the official family did not die in the north, so he should have this life. Taking Xiao Qi as a hostage is equivalent to making a fuss and winning the greatest trust and favor of the official family without any effort."

Yan Nan had a string in her mind and couldn't help but say, "Maybe he knew that Xiao Qi was not his biological son!"

Yuan Zheng nodded, and frost seemed to appear between his eyebrows and eyes, "It is very likely that with his style of conduct, even if he knows, if it is profitable, he will hide the whole matter secretly!"

Yuan Zheng then analyzed: "I think it is the original intention of the Northern Barbarians to propose that the Northern Barbarians should exchange their lives for me and Youzhou. After Prince Zhong knew the Northern Barbarians' idea, he used this point. On the one hand, he used the prince's hesitation and letters and various news to create the illusion that he wanted the official to die in the Northern Barbarians. On the other hand, he asked Liu Wei to take action, not only to ruin me, but also to ruin the entire Lin family army."

Yan Nan held Yuan Zheng's hand tightly. The deep blood hatred in his last sentence was extremely heavy even when he heard it.

"But..." Yan Nan couldn't help but sniff, "Why did he do this? Where did you and the Lin family army get in the way?"

Yuan Zheng smiled bitterly, "For him, my marriage was given to the government, which was the biggest obstacle. If I died but the Lin family army was still there, would such a Lin family army still work hard for Daliang? Youzhou was ceded and the northern part was in turmoil. I believe that Yu Yi would rather lead his brothers to wander around the mountains and forests than to work hard for Daliang again. For him, such a team is equivalent to an arrow on the string!"

Yan Nan understood that at that time, the Hebei Route Army, including the city lord Feng Xiao, who were wandering outside Hengshui City, had thought of an uprising? If the Lin family army lost Lin Jiuyuan and learned that Lin Jiuyuan was betrayed by the Emperor Daliang, they would definitely fight against Liang with the Mu Dang family and the others.

It's very cruel. This is the reason why we should remove the roots from cutting the grass.

Yuan Zheng continued: "When destroying the Lin family army, in history, this debt will only be recorded on Emperor Yongning, which will be more conducive to his future palace capture and let future generations see that such a foolish emperor will sooner or later ruin the Daliang Kingdom. He is the hero who saves the world! And those who hold their heads on the battlefield are just chess pieces to those sitting in the palace!"

Yuan Zheng said, his voice gradually dimming, slowly lowering his head, burying his face between Yan Nan's hands, as if he weighed a thousand pounds on his back.

Yan Nan knelt in the carriage with heartache, hugged him with his hands, and gritted his teeth and said, "Then, how can we take revenge?"

They have been searching for the people behind the scenes for so long, and the one who betrayed Brother Yuan and the Lin family army is actually Prince Zhong whom they have always been optimistic about and trusted?!

But no matter who he is, so much of the Lin family's blood cannot be in vain!

But now the entire Daliang is in his hands, how should they take revenge?

If Daliang, who had finally been rescued from Cui Geng, had started civil turmoil first, what should they do when the Eastern Liao Dynasty went south?

Yuan Zheng took a deep breath, buried his head in Yan's hair, as if he had found strength from her, and sat upright again and said, "There are heads and debts, and now Xiao Heng is in charge of Daliang. If I guess correctly, if Prince Zhong is gone and Xiao Heng can't hold on, he may have to give way to Xiao Qi."

A glimmer flashed in Yuan Zheng's eyes, "If you say that the good things that Prince Zhong has done and that Xiao Qi will be well trained, it will be one of them."

Yan Nan heard what he meant to deal with Prince Zhong without telling Xiao Heng and Xiao Qi, so he asked, "How to do it?"

Yuan Zheng stroked her hair with big hands, slid it into his ears, and looked into her eyes and said, "So I didn't tell all the truth about the Swallow Order, just to lead him to a place."

As he said that, he attached himself to Yan Nan's ear and said softly.

In the Longde Hall, Xiao Heng had also left, only Prince Zhong and Liang Zhan were left. Prince Zhong half-squinted his eyes and drank tea, as if he didn't know what to say, and seemed to enjoy this state very much, and remained silent.

Liang Zhan didn't know if he was excited or had just detoxified, his body had not healed, his face was abnormally white, and his eyebrows were even more melancholy. Seeing that Prince Zhong did not speak, he hesitated for a while, and he couldn't help but ask, "The prince didn't mean he was interested in Marquis Wu'an, and the prince's life..."

Prince Zhong opened his eyes and looked at Liang Zhan with a smile, "You want to ask, why didn't Qi'er be the emperor?"

He put down the teacup on his hand and said slowly: "I'm waiting."
