Unparalleled Concubine

Chapter 97: walking on thin ice

   Chapter 97 Walking on Thin Ice

   In the afternoon, a carriage drove into Datongfang and picked up the two women, but the direction of the carriage was not from Prince Wei's mansion. Only His Royal Highness Prince Wei knew exactly where it went.

   This is not surprising. As one of the four princes who stayed in Beijing, the Seventh Prince had no idea how many hidden properties in the capital, and the Deyi Building was just the tip of the iceberg.

Although these two Nanshu women were beautiful, the seventh prince took them away for political purposes. This is an ambitious prince. For the sake of his future throne, he will not be confused with these two sensitive women. .

After sending the two women away, the Seventh Prince looked back at Li Xin and said in a deep voice, "Brother Xin, the two Li Ni royals you killed are obviously not low-ranking, and most of these Nanshu remnants will come back again. Send someone to harm you, do you want me to send some people to protect you?"

As he said that, he looked at the yard where Li Xin lived and said, "Besides, your yard is too simple, and the address is exposed, it is too dangerous, I have another five entrances in Chase Square. The house, you just need to live in it."

A house with five entrances and five exits, that is to say, there are at least five independent courtyards in a set of large courtyards. Five entrances means that there are five doors for entering and exiting. This kind of house is compared to the small courtyard where Li Xin lives now. I don't know how much better, even in a place like Chase Square, it is considered a luxury house.

Li Xin shook his head slightly: "His Royal Highness, according to what these two women said, among the people who entered Beijing to assassinate Your Majesty last time, there was a core figure of Li Ni's royal family. People of this identity should not have been used as dead men in this way. It's their internal strife, otherwise the one who came to harm me this time would not be these two stupid women, but a powerful assassin."

   "And I'm used to living here, and I don't want to move."

The Seventh Prince glanced at Li Xin lightly, smiled and said, "This is Brother Xin, you don't understand the sinister nature of people's hearts, even if what you said was right, that Li Ni royal family was killed by his own people, but those people The person who harmed him still wants to avenge him, otherwise it won't be justified in terms of face."

  Li was awe-inspiring in confidence.

What the Seventh Prince said was right. Although this little prince from the southern border was mostly killed by his own people, the Li family in the southern border still wanted to avenge him. Doubtful.

   As for the thoughts of such politicians, Li Xin is still much inferior to the Seventh Prince for the time being.

  The Seventh Prince continued: "Again, just in case, you don't think about yourself, always think about your little sister."

   Li Xin nodded and said, "His Royal Highness said that I will go look for a new place in the next few days."

   His Royal Highness King Wei frowned slightly: "Don't want to live in my house?"

Li Xin smiled wryly and shook his head: "His Royal Highness is going to gather power during this period of time, and I am working in Yulinwei again, so it's not good to get involved too much, and I am a captain of Yulinwei, and I live in a big mansion with five entrances, which is too attractive. Noticed some."

   Ji Wen nodded: "Brother Xin is right, so let's go, I'll ask Jiuniang to buy you a not too big yard, just don't go through the Wei Wangfu, so others can't find out."

   Having said that, if Li Xin refused again, it would mean not to give honor to the Prince of Wei. At this time, Li Xin still had many places to rely on the Seventh Prince in the capital, so he immediately nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

   "Thank you for what."

The seventh prince patted Li Xin on the shoulder and smiled: "Li Ni in the southern border has been making trouble for so many years. Although it is not a serious problem for his confidants, it can be regarded as a disease of scabies. If you can follow this vine and help the emperor. Clearing ringworm and scabies, I think it will make the father a lot happier."

Li Xin gave the Seventh Prince a deep look, then lowered his head and said, "His Royal Highness, according to the information I have seen from the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, the Li family led the Pingnan Army to guard the southern border with 100,000 people. It has been more than 30 years. I haven't been able to get rid of scabies for many years, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as scabies."

  The seventh prince looked calm.

Although the Marquis of Pingnan is loyal to the court on the surface, and it is also respectful to the royal family on weekdays, but after so many years, everyone can see some tricks. It's not as simple as it looks.

   To put it bluntly, it’s just a layer of paper that no one dares to pierce.

The seventh prince smiled secretly: "Brother Xin, the water in this capital is very deep. For now, we can only point the finger at the southern border, not at the Pingnan Houfu. This truth, do you understand?"

The court let the Pingnanhou mansion in charge of the army for more than 30 years, not because there was no way to move the Li family, but because the price to be paid for moving the Li family was too great, and the two generations of the Pingnanhou mansion were "loyal to the king and patriotic", for the sake of Dajin is conscientiously guarding the southern border, and he will do something to the Li family when he is unknown.

  Li was awe-inspiring in confidence.

   He once again underestimated the power of the Pingnan Houfu.

   To make a royal family like the Seventh Prince feel so apprehensive, how much power is behind the Li family?

   In other words, can he really win against Li Shen, the great general of the Zhuguo Dynasty?

  Li Xin bowed his head slightly and said, "I understand what Your Highness means."

   Ji Wen patted Li Xin on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "You have to eat one bite at a time, and one day, you and I will be able to get what you want."

  Li Xin nodded silently.

His Royal Highness Wei Wang walked out of Li Xin's yard with his hands behind, and smiled: "Okay, I will let Jiuniang arrange the house as soon as possible in the past few days. Besides, Xiao Jiu will leave the palace in two days and move into Qinghe. The princess' mansion is over, I'm just such a direct sister, and Datongfang is not too peaceful, but I can rely on my brother to protect me."

   Li Xin clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Li Xin will do his best to keep the Nine Princesses safe."

Li Xin sent the seventh prince to the gate of his own courtyard. A purple carriage was already waiting at the entrance of the alley. The seventh prince looked back at Li Xin and said in a low voice, "Imperial father asked you to be the chief guard of this princess' residence. There must be deep meaning in it, and you can think about it when you are free."

   Li Xin said solemnly, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your suggestion."

  The Seventh Prince chuckled and stepped into his carriage with his hands behind his back. As the wheels rolled, he quickly walked out of Datongfang.

  Li Xin looked at the back of the purple carriage and fell into deep thought.

   To be honest, when he first came to this world, he felt that he was a transmigrator, and he felt somewhat superior, but after becoming "Li Xin" for three months, Li Xin gradually developed awe in this world.

   He is certainly a smart man, but there are too many smart people in this capital.

  From the current point of view, the aloof Chengde emperor, the Zhuguo general Li Shen, and the seventh prince, even Cui Jiuniang from the proud building, are no more stupid than him.

   even smarter than him.

   Li Xin was stunned for a long time, and finally returned to his yard with his hands behind him.

  The water in the capital is turbid, like walking on thin ice...
