Chapter 444 The power of hatred is enormous
He stood on the side like an invisible man, dressed in black, and had no sense of presence at all.
Jiang Nansheng saw Lu Zhiran who came in later.
She had already heard the news that Lu Zhiran had escaped, and the imperial court had issued a wanted order and was doing everything possible to capture her. Jiang Nansheng was originally worried about her, but she didn't expect that she was hidden by Baozhu.
Xiao Baozhu: "Lin Zheng, why are you here too?"
Jiang Nansheng: "Zhiran, you're okay, that's great."
They both spoke at the same time.
Xiao Baozhu's tone was slightly disgusted, but Jiang Nansheng was full of joy.
Lin Zheng still stood there like a piece of wood, turning a deaf ear to Xiao Baozhu's disgust.
Jiang Nansheng spoke up for Lin Zheng, "Thanks to Ah Zheng for staying by my side and protecting me during this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to show up here in one piece."
Xiao Baozhu naturally knew that she just disliked Lin Zheng out of habit.
Ah Sheng is so outstanding that any son from aristocratic family is worthy of her, but in the end, Lin Zheng gets the advantage.
Lin Zheng spoke and said to Jiang Nansheng, "I'll be guarding the door."
Jiang Nansheng nodded, and he went, very obediently.
Jiang Nansheng got straight to the point, "Business is important, so let's not waste any more time talking nonsense."
The three of them sat together and began to exchange information with each other.
From Jiang Nansheng, they also learned about the situation in Southern Yunnan Prefecture, which made them feel very nervous.
The situation in Southern Yunnan Prefecture was as bad as they had expected.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind, which is really worrying.
Especially when they learned that Xiao Yanci was going to cross Baihu Ridge and raid the rear of the Nanyue Kingdom, Lu Zhiran and Xiao Baozhu became nervous.
This plan is extremely dangerous, but it is also the only way for the Southern Yunnan Prefecture to survive.
"Originally, I should have arrived in the capital earlier, but I encountered the spies sent by the Eighth Prince to Diannan Prefecture at Xuanwu Peak. They were chasing me, and I was delayed in order to deal with them."
"Judging from the timing, they've most likely already been at war with the Kingdom of Nanyue, but no news has yet reached the capital. A Zheng has already sent a Saker Falcon to deliver the message. It's much faster than a human, so we'll know the latest developments in Southern Yunnan soon."
Lin Zheng's Saker Falcon was the one he raised in Qiang area.
When he left Xiping, he didn't want to take it with him because it belonged to that prairie. But when Lin Zheng said goodbye to it, it understood and followed Lin Zheng all the way, unwilling to leave.
Lin Zheng kept it, and the Saker Falcon followed them as they headed south.
It also helped them a lot and made many contributions.
Her words made the two of them feel much more at ease.
The most worrying thing is that you have no information and are in the dark.
Only by knowing the news, even if it is bad news, can they respond in time.
Jiang Nansheng asked, "I heard that the emperor is seriously ill?"
There was a sadness in Xiao Baozhu's eyes as she told him about her father's recent health condition, including the identity of Zhao Shuning whom they had just discovered.
Jiang Nansheng was shocked when he learned about Zhao Shuning.
"She is so lucky!"
As the ancients said, disasters can last for thousands of years, which is indeed true.
Xiao Baozhu had no time to denounce Zhao Shuning. She was only worried about Emperor Defeng's health.
"Ah Sheng, my father must have been murdered by them. Do you have any way to save him? He seems to be much better this time, but I still can't rest assured. His recovery is definitely only temporary."
Jiang Nansheng's heart sank when he heard about Emperor Defeng's physical condition.
If I had come back earlier, perhaps they wouldn't have had the chance to succeed.
Now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting. The most important thing is to solve the problem.
Jiang Nansheng held her hand and comforted her.
"Baozhu, don't worry. You have to find a way to send me to the palace first so I can check the emperor's pulse."
Xiao Baozhu couldn't help but look embarrassed.
It was impossible to let Jiang Nansheng openly enter the palace to take Emperor Defeng's pulse. Xiao Yanlin would definitely not let her treat Emperor Defeng and ruin his plan.
But now the palace is controlled by Xiao Yanlin inside and outside, and there are countless eyes watching. Xiao Baozhu can't guarantee whether she can find an opportunity to let Jiang Nansheng into the palace to take her pulse.
But you have to give everything a try, otherwise you will just have to sit and wait for death.
"I will arrange this as soon as possible."
Feng Youcai may be able to provide help.
Jiang Nansheng saw Xiao Baozhu's worry and once again realized the tension of the current situation.
The eighth prince's power is growing faster than he imagined.
His strength should not be underestimated.
They are now isolated and helpless and cannot rashly seek external help, otherwise they may be exposed by the other party's ulterior motives.
The people you can trust at this time are either absolute confidants or people with the same interests as you.
Lu Zhiran thought of someone.
"Baozhu, you can send someone to tell the Fourth Princess to be careful about her food, clothing, housing, and transportation in the near future."
Xiao Baozhu was a little confused.
Why was the Fourth Princess mentioned out of nowhere? And why was she being reminded to be careful?
Xiao Baozhu hadn't figured it out yet, but Jiang Nansheng had understood.
"Do you think the prince will send someone to silence us?"
The Fourth Princess openly questioned Zhao Shuning's identity. Although she fooled him at the time, if she thought about it carefully afterwards and had doubts again, or even made the matter public, Zhao Shuning's identity would be questioned.
What's more, this matter is true and cannot withstand scrutiny.
If the matter gets out of hand, not only will Zhao Shuning be lost, but the prince will also be affected.
The best way is to get rid of the fourth princess and eliminate the trouble forever.
Xiao Baozhu also realized it belatedly.
Lu Zhiran nodded. "The Crown Prince is ruthless and will definitely not let go of such a hidden danger. I don't care about the Fourth Princess's safety, but I would like to have an extra helper."
Xiao Wanzhen originally hated Zhao Shuning. If she knew that she was almost killed by Zhao Shuning again, her hatred for him would definitely reach its peak, and she would also develop hatred for Xiao Yanlin.
The power of hatred is enormous.
Given Xiao Wanzhen's personality, she would definitely find ways to avenge herself.
At this time, having such an ally would be of great benefit to them.
Even if Xiao Yanlin didn't send anyone to do it, it wouldn't matter. They only needed to tell Xiao Wanzhen about the relationship between Zhao Shuning and Zhao Hu, which would also arouse the other party's hatred.
Xiao Baozhu immediately said, "When we get back to the mansion, I'll send someone to secretly send a message to the Fourth Princess!"
Others may not know, but she knows it very well. Her royal sister is very narrow-minded. If she knows about this, she will definitely not forgive them.
The three of them agreed on a preliminary plan, and it was already late.
Xiao Baozhu asked, "Where are you living now? Come live with me in the princess's mansion. It's safe there."
Jiang Nansheng shook his head. "I live here. It's convenient for me to travel and investigate. Living in the princess's mansion would be inconvenient."
Qiuyue Pavilion is a teahouse on the surface, but it also has side rooms.
The people here are all her confidants, so she doesn't worry about safety issues living here.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Baozhu stopped insisting and left with Lu Zhiran.
