492 It is impossible that I don’t have my own calculations in my heart

In the evening, Ying San brought a piece of news to Gu Xiaoxi.

"Miss, Third Master is really quick. As soon as Fifth Master got into trouble, he asked Ye Lan to take over Fifth Master's power outside the palace.

But I heard that the people they found were all useless," Ying San reported.

snort!

Gu Xiaoxi smiled coldly after hearing this: "Although the Fifth Master is a playboy and follows the eldest prince on the surface, he is still a prince after all, and it is impossible for him not to have his own calculations in his heart.

Since he has a plan and is being watched by the Crown Prince, he will definitely try to hide his power better."

"Then, what should we do now?" Ying San was worried that once the Third Master obtained the power of the Fifth Master, it would not be good for his master.

Gu Xiaoxi thought about it carefully and gave Ye Lixuan an idea: "Have your master go to the palace to see the Fifth Master and tell him that the Queen is searching for his influence outside the palace. Don't ask him for it, but see what he does."

"Yes!" Ying San immediately went to report the result to his master.

Ye Lixuan immediately entered the palace and saw Lao Wu who was still recovering from his injuries.

Ye Chengxuan was seriously injured and his cultivation was basically wasted. After a period of recuperation, he was barely able to walk.

Seeing his second brother coming over, a sad smile appeared on his originally calm face: "I didn't expect that the first one to come to see me would be my second brother."

"Father didn't let you visit before, so you can't blame the other brothers." Ye Lixuan stepped forward and said.

hehe……

Mentioning his father, Ye Chengxuan smiled until tears welled up in his eyes. He vented his grievances with a painful expression: "I'm in this state, and father still doesn't forget to use me as a chess piece to deal with the queen."

It seems that Lao Wu is not stupid and knows things better than anyone else.

Ye Lixuan patted Lao Wu, but did not agree with him, nor did he speak out his true feelings. Instead, he comforted him, "You think too much. Father is just worried about your safety.

Think about it, if you were outside the palace, would the Queen's people let you go?"

When Ye Chengxuan heard this, he felt that it made sense.

The Queen's power outside the palace was even greater, so it would be too easy to kill him.

On the contrary, there are still many things to worry about in the palace.

"Okay, just take good care of your injuries and get well. You can still be a prince in the future." Ye Lixuan said.

Will the emperor really let him live?

Ye Chengxuan was not at all sure. After all, a useless chess piece was worthless in his father's eyes.

Seeing Ye Chengxuan's depressed mood, Ye Lixuan lowered his voice and said, "I got the news that the Queen has started to recruit your forces outside the palace. I don't know what she wants to do."

"That old witch is dreaming! My power is not so easy to be taken away. I would rather disperse them than let that old witch get away with it!" Ye Chengxuan didn't expect that the queen was also eyeing the power under his command.

Ye Lixuan knew that Lao Wu was aware of the situation and that his purpose in coming here had been achieved. He stood up, patted Lao Wu on the shoulder, and instructed him, "Just be patient. Once you're well and out, don't worry about anything. Whoever gets to that position won't make things difficult for you anyway."

"Second brother!" Ye Chengxuan couldn't imagine that his second brother would say such words to him.

However, his second brother was open-minded enough, so he believed what he said.

But, it’s hard to say about the third brother.

The third brother who looks gentle and polite on the surface has always had a lot of little calculations in his mind. In the past, not only the second brother fell for it, but even the fourth brother who passed away fell for it.

"Brother, there's something I don't know whether I should tell you?" He suddenly remembered something.

"Is there anything you can't say now?" Ye Lixuan said as he sat down again.

Ye Chengxuan lowered his voice and said, "In fact, when we went to the border town to fight, my father's first choice was not my fourth brother, but my third brother.

It was Third Brother's mother who found the Queen. The Queen was afraid of Fourth Brother's ability, so she whispered in Father's ear and finally replaced Third Brother with Fourth Brother."

"Does your third brother know about this?" Ye Lixuan asked.

"I know, of course he knows. Moreover, he also knows that Fourth Brother was in great danger when he went out that time." Ye Chengxuan nodded with certainty.

"What does this mean?" Ye Lixuan said he didn't understand.

"When I got the news, my third brother and I were having dinner in a restaurant. I hadn't completely followed my eldest brother at that time, so I mentioned it casually, but my third brother didn't say anything." Ye Chengxuan continued.

When Ye Lixuan heard the news, his heart ached.

In the past, the younger brother treated the third brother as his own brother. Even if the third brother became the younger brother, the third brother had to remind his younger brother.

It seems that the third brother had the ambition to get promoted at that time, and he hoped that the eldest brother's plan would succeed so that he could get rid of a real rival.

"Second brother, you have to be careful with third brother. He is really not a good person." Ye Changxuan reminded his second brother.

"I know what I'm doing. You should have a good rest." Ye Lixuan regained his expression, stood up and left Lao Wu's residence.

Ye Changxuan looked at his second brother's departing back and thought to himself that he hoped this news could save his second brother's life.

Although the third brother is a very shrewd person, he knows that the second brother has always been hiding his strength.

What's more, the Sixth Brother is now helping the Second Brother. He is a transparent person in front of his father, and it is not easy for him to be discovered no matter what he does. If he had not fallen out with his eldest brother, he would not have accidentally discovered this secret.

If this is the case, the second brother has a greater chance of winning, so he can only take a gamble.

After seeing Lao Wu coming out of the palace, Ye Lixuan went straight to Gu Xiaoxi. There were some things he had to say to Gu Xiaoxi in person.

It was still early and there was no movement from Gu Xiaoxi's side. She didn't expect Ye Lixuan to come at this time.

After Ye Lixuan came in, she closed the door and took him to the space to talk.

Ye Lixuan told Gu Xiaoxi the news he heard from Lao Wu.

Gu Xiaoxi felt something was amiss after hearing this and said, "This Fifth Brother must have known something, otherwise he wouldn't have told you about Fourth Brother before you and Third Brother had even decided on the final winner."

"You mean, Lao Wu knows some secret of mine?" Ye Lixuan speculated.

"The more likely possibility is that he discovered your collaboration with Lao Liu. If this were to be exposed at this moment, Lao Liu would be in danger.

The first person who won't let him go is your emperor father. After all, he's been deceived for so many years, he's definitely not going to let this go." This is what Gu Xiaoxi is most worried about.

Ye Lixuan felt that there was nothing wrong with what Xiaoxi said.

So, Gu Xiaoxi followed the palace team invisibly, entered the door, and went to the palace where the Fifth Master was under house arrest.
