In the end, Chu Jingyue was not caught.
Chen Jingxi learned Chu Jingyue's entire plan from Chu Jinghuai.
Including the fact that Nanxing was a medicine man, and was also the person from southern Xinjiang who was notified by Chu Jingyue.
Perhaps he also suspected that Nanxing was a medicine man because Chu Jingxun's illness was cured so strangely, so he instigated Nanxing to run away with him.
But he deliberately allowed himself to be captured by Chu Jinghuai's army, and later tried every means to live in the prefect's mansion.
After that, he knew Chen Jingxi's itinerary very well and also knew her character, so he arranged for the little beggar.
It’s a pity that Nanxing is indeed a medicine man, and the little beggar is not a professional killer, so Chen Jingxi did not die and Chu Jinghuai did not go crazy.
When one plan failed, he came up with another.
Chen Jingxi became very angry when he thought that Chu Jingyue had colluded with Ye Nandie.
When Chu Jingyue appeared in Waishi Village, she was really happy. It can be said that she really regarded Chu Jingyue as a friend at that time.
She also spent dozens of taels of silver to treat him to a meal, only to find out that all the disasters were caused by them.
Oh well, I really tore open the umbrella and found that it was not raining outside and the sun was shining brightly.
Back to the topic, when Chu Jingyue learned that Chu Jinghuai was going to pick up Ye Kang, he secretly revealed the existence of Ouyang Xu. Chu Jinghuai followed the clues and found out that Ye Nandie had lied to him.
Chu Jinghuai also acted according to Chu Jingyue's plan and had someone steal Ouyang Xu out.
Then he sent someone to tell Ouyang Jian that it was Chu Jinghuai who sent people to capture Ouyang Xu. With new grudges and old grudges, it would be strange if Ouyang Jian did not seek revenge on Chu Jinghuai.
If she had not disturbed Ouyang Jian's mind, Chu Jinghuai would definitely not be Ouyang Jian's opponent, and he would be half-crippled if not dead.
What a good trick to kill with a borrowed knife.
Thinking of this, Chen Jingxi couldn't help but feel a little angry. "Don't you think about the consequences of your actions? If you die, what will happen to me and the child?"
She didn't think that if Chu Jing died, she and the baby in her belly would have a chance to survive. Even if she did, they would try their best to get rid of the baby in her belly.
After all, the 200,000 troops loyal to Chu Jinghuai and the 20,000 black-armored guards will be the child's most solid backing.
No matter who ascends the throne, he will regard this child as a thorn in his side.
The safest thing to do is to kill this child before he becomes anything special.
Chu Jinghuai pulled the person into his arms and comforted him, "It's not that I didn't think about the consequences, it's just that the person I invited came a little late."
"Who did you ask to help you?"
"Master Zuo of the Netherworld Pavilion, I just need to hold him back until Zuo Xiangtian arrives. Then the two of us can kill Ouyang Jian together."
"Couldn't you tell me the plan first? You made me so worried."
"Okay, I'll tell you everything later."
Chen Jingxi nodded with satisfaction.
After a moment's silence, she asked again, "Is power really that important? Even at any cost?"
After she asked, she answered herself, "Um...it is indeed very important."
Chu Jinghuai sneered, "It's fine if you're not qualified for power, but you have the chance to fight for it. Why not fight for it? The power of life and death, the worship of all the ministers, everyone bowing at your feet, few can resist such temptation."
Chen Jingxi's expression was somewhat gloomy. "You too?"
She was a little pretentious and wanted to know who was more important, her or Jiangshan. She used to despise me and your mother. If we fell into the water, who would you save?
I feel that life and death are in my own hands, so why should I rely on others to save me?
But if he dared to say he wanted to save his mother, she would bite him to death. Even though she could swim, that was not an option. He had to save her.
Chu Jinghuai said bluntly: "This king is no exception."
"I knew that you, a bastard, loved the country the most." Chen Jingxi said as he pounded Chu Jinghuai's chest.
Chu Jinghuai grabbed her hand and said jokingly, "I rebelled for you."
"You say it nicely."
"Madam, you are being wronged! When the Emperor issued the decree for you to return to the capital, I, your husband, directly accused you of rebellion in order to allow you to openly disobey the decree."
Chen Jingxi pouted at him, "It's obvious that your father wanted to use me to threaten you, so you rebelled."
"What difference does it make? In my heart, the princess is the most important. I can lose everything, but I cannot lose the princess."
Hearing this, Chen Jingxi was delighted and asked the eternal question: "If your mother and I fell into the water, who would you save?"
Chu Jinghuai was stunned for a moment before he said, "Save you. Not only my mother, but also my father. As for our children, you are the first one I will save."
"No, if our child is in the water, you must save the child first."
Chu Jinghuai did not agree.
Chen Jingxi emphasized: "If my child and I are in danger at the same time, you must save the child first, otherwise I will not forgive you."
"If I hadn't saved you, I wouldn't have forgiven myself."
Chen Jingxi put her arm around his waist and said domineeringly, "You must save the child, otherwise I will not forgive you!"
"Okay, save the child." Chu Jinghuai said helplessly. For the first time, he felt that the child was a burden.
The two of them were very sweet and saying some blushing and heart-pounding words.
Ye Nandie was crying and making a fuss.
"Woo woo...Mom, he stole my candy."
Ye Nandie said angrily, "Who told you to take Xu'er's candy? Give it back to him."
Ye Kang held the candy tightly in his hand and whispered, "Mom, my brother has already eaten two candies. This one is mine."
"What do you mean by yours? This is all his. Who are you? Who is he? What qualifications do you have to compete with him?"
"Mom, didn't you say I'm the emperor's grandson? Can I have anything I want?"
Ye Nandie sneered, "Grandson of the Emperor? What kind of grandson of the Emperor are you? You are just a fake, a sham, understand? You are just a bastard born to a lowly concubine."
Ye Kang asked, seemingly understanding, "Mom, am I not your daughter?"
"No, don't you look at what you look like? Do you look like I gave birth to you?"
Ye Kang was stunned, tears welling up in his eyes. He handed the candy to Ouyang Xu and said, "This candy is for you. I didn't mean to steal it from you."
Ouyang Xu wiped his tears, took the candy and threw it away, "Your hands are so dirty, I don't want this candy."
Ye Kang looked at the candy thrown on the ground, clenched his fists, and glared at Ouyang Xu fiercely.
Ye Nandie noticed this look and slapped Ye Kang in the face. "If you dare to look at him like that again, I'll dig your eyes out."
This slap knocked Ye Kang to the ground. He curled up in a corner, hugging his legs and begging, "Mom, I won't do it again."
"Don't call me mom, I'm not your mom. If I hear you call me mom again, I'll smash your mouth."
Xiao Yekang covered his mouth and said, "I won't scream. I won't scream anymore. Don't hit me."
"Stand outside. You are not allowed to come into the house without my permission."
Xiao Yekang went out obediently and stood in the yard.
The secret guards who were watching over them frowned. In such a hot summer, not to mention the children, even the adults could not stand the heat.
One of them whispered, "I'll go and report this to the princess."
In their minds, only the princess can cure such people.
