The existence of the child has nothing to do with trust. Even if this child is the Ninth Uncle's, Feng Qingchen believes that this is not what the Ninth Uncle wants. This child should be an unexpected existence. What makes Feng Qingchen unhappy is that the Ninth Uncle didn't tell her anything.

Even if this was really the Ninth Prince's child, and the Ninth Prince had told her in advance, she would still be unable to get rid of the child. If it wasn't the Ninth Prince's, she should have been told.

The child was suddenly sent to her, and Doudou said in front of so many people that the child was the Ninth Prince's, and she had no way to refute it. Even if the Ninth Prince said it was not his in the future, those people would just think that the Ninth Prince was afraid of her and would not take it seriously.

Facing that child, Feng Qingchen felt a real headache. She didn't dare to ask, but she felt uncomfortable if she didn't ask. Feng Qingchen felt that she had never felt so aggrieved.

The conditions of most of the children have stabilized. Feng Qingchen has been very idle these days, but the idler he is, the worse his mental state becomes. He feels listless. Feng Qingchen wanted to say that it was the bitter summer, but no one believed him.

Feng Qingchen was in a bad mood and didn't bother to ask about what was happening outside. He only learned from Prince Su that the commander of the Imperial Guard was dismissed and Fu Lin, the commander-in-chief of the Blood Robe Guard, was also urgently recalled to the Imperial City. General An and Marquis Yingyong insisted that Fu Lin give them an explanation.

Because... the people who accidentally killed General An's grandson and the son of the Brave Marquis happened to be members of the Blood-Clothed Guards.

If it were normal times, it would not be difficult for the emperor to protect Fu Lin, but now the emperor is mobilizing troops and preparing to attack Xiling. Based on the prestige of General An and Marquis Yingyong in the military, if these two people are not dealt with, this battle will probably be difficult to win.

This is the first step of the Dongling campaign. The emperor will never allow this battle to be lost. In order to appease the military, Fu Lin must be punished. Before Fu Lin returns, the Blood Robe Guard will be temporarily under the charge of the former commander-in-chief Lu Shaolin.

Feng Qingchen mocked, "Lu Shaolin obviously has problems, and the emperor has asked him to temporarily manage the Blood Robe Guards. It's good that he wants to follow the clues to find out the cause, but he has already startled the snake and is still using this trick. Aren't you afraid that others will use the same trick against you?"

"At this time, it depends on the courage and skills of both sides. One side will always lose patience." Prince Su admired the emperor's methods very much.

Dare to do, dare to fight, and have the aura of an emperor.

Feng Qingchen twitched his lips to show that he was smiling. Prince Su frowned slightly, hiding the gleam in his eyes, and said casually, "The emperor has appointed the Si family to lead the army in the attack on Xiling this time. Marshal Si is stationed at the border and cannot move. If I am not mistaken, the leader of the army this time should be Si Cheng, the young marshal of the Si family. If you have the chance, you should get in touch with him more. This boy is extraordinary."

"Young Marshal Si? Who is he?" Feng Qingchen perked up a little when the matter of attacking Xiling was mentioned, and he immediately sat up straight and asked.

"You'll know when you see it." Prince Su clearly wanted to please Diao Feng Qingchen and refused to say anything.

Feng Qingchen squinted at Prince Su, trying to see something from his face, but saw nothing. Feng Qingchen muttered to himself but did not ask any further questions.

Anyway, you will know when you see him. There are quite a few famous generals in Dongling, but there are not many young ones. This Si Cheng must be quite capable, otherwise the emperor would not trust him to lead the troops.

This was the first time Feng Qingchen heard Si Cheng's name, and the second time was in the letter from the Ninth Prince.

Unlike the letters Feng Qingchen wrote to the Ninth Prince, the Ninth Prince's letters were always so well-organized, with each thing concise and to the point. They were more like orders than letters. Feng Qingchen felt so depressed reading them, but he had to read them.

In the letter, the Ninth Uncle focused on Si Cheng and the relationship between Si Cheng and Prince Su. This made Feng Qingchen finally understand why Prince Su mentioned this person in front of her. It turned out that...

This person was most likely just like Zhai Dongming, and fell into the emperor's trap.

It has to be said that the emperor's method was very clever. He plotted against Zhai Dongming when he was so young. In this way, the Zhai family was cut off, and naturally there would be no king of a different surname.

The plan was almost perfect. After so many years, not to mention ordinary doctors, even the imperial physicians could not diagnose the true situation of Zhai Dongming's infertility and just thought that he was born that way.

It was a pity that he met her, and then had the consultation with the three famous doctors, the Valley Master, Chi Lianshui and Guo Baoji. Otherwise, Zhai Dongming would never understand in his life why he had no children, and of course there would be no falling out with the Emperor.

"It's really hard to earn these twelve thousand private soldiers. Prince Su is really insidious." He thought he had made a good deal, but he realized that the older he got, the wiser he got.

Originally, these twelve thousand private soldiers were the reward she gave to Zhai Dongming, but now an extra Si Cheng was added, and he couldn't refuse because Si Cheng, this sinister guy, had already hooked up with the Ninth Prince.

I wonder if the emperor would be furious if he knew about this, as all his ministers and famous generals had turned against him. However, it was useless for the emperor to be angry, because he had summoned the Si Cheng first, and Zhai Dongming had discovered something wrong with his body later.

At this time, if the emperor wants to change generals on the battlefield, the morale of the army may be unstable. However... with the old Marshal Si and so many trusted men in the army, Si Cheng will not betray the emperor.

Feng Qingchen finished reading the letter, suppressing his curiosity, and went to read the poem at the end of the letter with great anticipation, but...

"What does this mean?" Looking at the black mass, Feng Qingchen's face also turned dark.

What is it that was written and then erased?

poetry?

Feng Qingchen shook his head without even thinking. The Ninth Prince had been able to write such an explicit love poem so calmly in the last letter, so how could this group of people be so pretentious?

But if it wasn't poetry, then what was it? Something to do with that child?

Feng Qingchen admitted that she was suspicious, but... she was unhappy, she was really unhappy.

What did the Ninth Prince write, and then erase it in the end? And he erased it so thoroughly that she couldn't find any trace.

"If you don't want to write, then you shouldn't have written it in the first place. What's this?" Feng Qingchen was so angry that he crumpled up the letter paper in his hand and threw it fiercely against the wall: "Dong Lingjiu, I hate you!"

Feng Qingchen's eyes turned red. She felt particularly aggrieved for some reason and simply lay on the table and sulked.

She believed in the Ninth Prince Uncle, but believing did not mean that the Ninth Prince Uncle would say nothing. She would not automatically defend the Ninth Prince Uncle. If she disappeared for ten months without saying anything, and then the secret guard brought a child to the Ninth Prince Uncle and said that it was the child she had with someone else, would the Ninth Prince Uncle believe it?

Even if he doesn't believe it, he will still doubt it, because the timing is just right, because the person who brought the child is someone he trusts, because she didn't explain, and one more thing, sometimes we can't just give up a child if we don't want it. There is a word in this world called accident.

She believed that the Ninth Prince would not deliberately find a woman outside to have a child, but she could not rule out the possibility of accidents. Trust is not a blind belief that the other party will never betray you, but believing what the other party says and believing in the other person's character.

She believed in the Ninth Prince, but she could not rule out the possibility that the child was his.

Feng Qingchen knew that the child was a thorn. If she didn't find out the identity of the child, she would have to think too much. Who made the Ninth Prince say nothing? As long as the Ninth Prince said that the child was not his, she would believe it immediately, but the Ninth Prince said nothing.

She didn't believe that the Ninth Emperor had forgotten. How could the Ninth Emperor have forgotten such a big thing...

A word to readers: I had to go out today and got home a little late. The other two chapters will be a little later. Everyone go to bed early and don't wait...
