Since the last time she fell out with the prince, Queen Qin has been waiting for the prince to take the initiative to bow her head and admit her mistake.

Although the Crown Prince now has a high prestige among the people and is appreciated and supported by some people in the court, these are still insignificant compared to the power of the Qin family.

Empress Qin believed that the prince's mind would not be confused.

As long as he calms down and sees the situation he is in, he should know that he cannot do without the support of the Qin family.

But she waited for a long time, not only failed to wait for the prince's compromise, but instead waited for a piece of news that she had never thought of—

Empress Qin frowned and asked, "Did you hear it right? The prince really wants to go back to Chenliu County?"

Quartz fell to her knees and answered respectfully.

"The servant definitely heard right. The prince wants to send Shen Zhaoyi's ashes back to Chenliu County. The matter has been approved by the emperor. In three days, the prince will officially leave the capital."

Queen Qin's heart sank to the bottom.

She laughed angrily: "Bengong raised him for fifteen years, and raised him hand in hand to become a talent, if it wasn't for Ben Gong, would he have today?

But he was good, not only did he not want to repay his gratitude, but instead he was thinking of his mother-in-law who had been dead for more than ten years, really blood is thicker than water!

It seems that in his heart, Ben Gong has always been an outsider, and Ben Gong's hard work over the past ten years has all been fed to the dog! "

Quartz knelt on the ground and dared not make a sound.

Pearl also lowered her head, not daring to take a breath.

After a long time, Empress Qin regained some composure.

"Since he wants to go, let him go. Ben Gong wants to see. Without the support of the Qin family, how many days can he roam outside?"

Empress Qin immediately wrote a letter and asked Quartz to be sent out of the palace by someone and handed it over to the head of the Qin family.

The head of the Qin family was named Qin Lie. He was the father of Empress Qin and one of the six ministers in the cabinet.

After Qin Lie read the letter, he directly burned the letter.

He looked at the letter paper, which was gradually burning to ashes, and sighed softly.

In the final analysis, it was because Empress Qin did not have a biological son. If she could have a son, she would not have reached this point.

But then again, with the methods and temperament of today's sages, even if Empress Qin did have a biological son, I'm afraid that son would not live long.

Qin Lie took back those chaotic thoughts and asked people to clean up the ashes in the basin.

Then he wrote another letter and handed it over to King Chenliu by his confidant.

Over the years, Qin Lie and King Chen Liu have always had correspondence.

Qin Lie can probably guess the reason why King Chenliu gave up his eldest son and chose to make his second son the prince.

Brothers fight against each other and kill each other.

This kind of thing happens not only in the palace, but also in the palace.

Power and status are always the most demagogic things.

Qin Lie wrote to King Chenliu in order to remind King Chenliu and let him know that the prince was going to Chenliu County soon. If King Chenliu really wanted to do something, he had to prepare immediately.

At the same time, Qin Lie ordered someone to follow the prince secretly. If the prince really encountered an accident in Chenliu County, the Qin family's dark guard would rescue the prince in time.

In this way, the prince will return to the big ship of the Qin family.

As for how this matter will end, that is the matter of King Chenliu himself, and has nothing to do with the Qin family.

...

Inside the Qingge Hall.

Baoqin hurriedly ran to call Concubine Xiao up.

"Niangniang, don't sleep, there's something big going on outside!"

Xiao Xixi turned over and asked lazily, "What happened again?"

Baoqin said anxiously: "The servant just heard that the prince will leave for Chenliu County in three days!"

"Oh."

Baoqin: "Why is your reaction so indifferent? Are you not worried at all?"

Xiao Xixi yawned: "What are you worried about?"

"Chenliu County has high mountains and rivers, and I don't know how many dangers I will encounter along the way. If the prince encounters something unexpected on the road, what will you do, madam?"

Xiao Xixi said indifferently: "What else can I do? I can only bury him."

Baoqin choked, and immediately said: "Bah, bah, bah! Such words can't be said casually, it's too unlucky!"

"Didn't you start this topic first? I just followed your words."

Baoqin said helplessly: "The servant said this because I want you to give the prince a calculus to see if the prince's journey is going well?"

Xiao Xixi felt that this proposal was quite reliable.

She really should make a calculation for the prince. If she really calculates something bad, it is better for the prince to prepare in advance.

Xiao Xixi sat up, scratched her messy hair, and closed her eyes.

Baoqin held her breath and waited quietly.

After waiting for a long time, Concubine Xiao could not open her eyes.

Baoqin raised her hand and shook it in front of her. Seeing that she didn't respond, she leaned in front of her, listened carefully, and heard a slight cry.

Concubine Xiao fell asleep again!

Baoqin almost knelt down for her.

my niece! Even if you are going to sleep, you have to finish the calculation first!

Baoqin took a deep breath and began to sign up for the dish.

"Shrimp with Jade Belt, Red Braised Shark's Fin, Chicken Wrapped in Paper, Braised Prawns, Mapo Tofu, Rock Sugar Elbow, Shredded Fish Fragrant Pork, Lychee Pork..."

Xiao Xixi woke up with a jolt.

Baoqin stopped reporting the name of the dish.

Xiao Xixi blinked: "I seem to have heard a lot of delicious food?"

Baoqin has a business-like appearance, and her tone is very serious: "You finish the calculation first, and the slaves will go and get you something delicious."

Xiao Xixi sucked in her saliva: "Can you make all the dishes you mentioned just now for me?"

Baoqin: "As long as there are enough ingredients, the slaves will make them for you to eat."

Xiao Xixi suddenly came to the spirit.

With the food as her motivation, she didn't slack off any more this time, and began to fortune-telling for the prince in her heart.

As a result, after this fortune was calculated, her complexion immediately changed.

Seeing this, Baoqin also jumped in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "Is there a problem with the hexagrams?"

Xiao Xixi wrinkled a small face: "I figured out that the prince will encounter death this trip. It's a big omen."

Baoqin was startled, and she stammered when she spoke: "The big, the big ominous hexagram?"

Xiao Xixi couldn't help scratching her hair again, and said angrily: "It's really shown in the hexagram, and the prince's long trip is likely to be miserable."

"Then what should we do? Why don't you persuade the prince not to go to Chenliu County?"

Before Xiao Xixi could answer, Baoqin denied the proposal.

"No, the emperor has already agreed to the prince's request. The emperor's order cannot be violated. The prince has to go if he doesn't go this time."

Xiao Xixi sat cross-legged on the couch with a rare serious look on her face.

Baoqin turned around in a hurry: "How can this be good?"

Xiao Xixi sighed: "I can only accompany the prince on this trip."
