Gu Chengyu hooked his lips and smiled, King Jing is too poor and too weak, how can he compete with King Gong? It's better for him to help King Jing.

Because only by sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, can you sit back and relax!

"You go check it out! King Jing has been too quiet lately, look at what he's planning. The official didn't believe it, the fragrant bun fell in front of him, could he still pick it up? ”

"Your Majesty, there's news from Jiangnan." The emperor was sitting in the imperial study to review the folds, and Pang Chu whispered outside the door.

"Come on in!" The emperor's mood suddenly became excited, and the news from Jiangnan came, and he didn't know if he had found an antidote.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here!" The emperor had just opened the letter when he heard that the Queen Mother was coming!

The emperor's face sank, and the hand that grabbed the letter in his hand tightened, and he stuffed the letter into the secret compartment of the imperial case with his backhand.

"Let her in!" The emperor picked up the folds on the imperial case as if nothing happened, and Pang Chu on the side was a little surprised, although his face was full of doubts, but he also knew that this was not something he could ask.

The Queen Mother was in a hurry, and when she entered the imperial study, she saw that the emperor was sitting upright, and immediately stepped forward to ask for warmth.

"Emperor! Why are you still reviewing the folds? Didn't Zhang Yuan Envoy say it? You must be mentally healthy, otherwise even if you ask for an antidote, your body will not be able to bear it. ”

"The Queen Mother! Erchen's body has been much better, and this twist and turn has piled up. If you don't approve it again, those ministers will overturn the Taihe Palace. ”

There was a light smile on the emperor's top, and if you look closely, you can detect that his smile does not reach the bottom of his eyes.

"Then you need to be careful about your body!" The Queen Mother wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and after saying this, the two suddenly fell silent.

"Emperor! The mourning family heard that there was news in Jiangnan. After hesitating for a while, the Queen Mother finally couldn't hold back and asked.

The smile on the emperor's face couldn't be contained, he had just gotten the letter, and the queen mother rushed over, what did this mean? Could it be that his every move is under the watchful eye of the Queen Mother?

In this imperial study and his bedroom, how many spies have been planted by the queen mother? He turned his head to look at Pang Chu, and his cold eyes made Pang Chu tremble in fright.

If Pang Chu didn't know why the emperor was angry at this time, then he wouldn't be able to become the emperor's personal attendant. He hurriedly begged the emperor with his eyes, he didn't dare to do this!

In the final analysis, he is the emperor's chamberlain, and only the emperor has served from beginning to end. As soon as he got the letter, he reported it to the emperor, where did he have time to deliver the news to Ci'an Palace?

"Emperor! Can you get the antidote? The Queen Mother clenched the handkerchief in her hand, where did she have the heart to think about anything else now? Even if she has already found a way out, Ke'er is her son, and she doesn't want to go to the last step!

Looking at the emperor's deep gaze, the Queen Mother was nervously trembling.

The emperor held back the dull pain in his heart, and said with a smile: "I just received the letter, and I haven't opened it yet." ”

The emperor took out the letter from the secret compartment, "Pang Chu, you go to the palace to guard, no matter who comes to ask for a meeting, don't come in to report!" ”

"Yes!"

After Pang Chu and the two opened, the emperor took a deep breath and opened the letter tremblingly. This thin piece of paper made the emperor feel that it weighed more than a thousand catties in his hand.

The Queen Mother's mood at the moment was as heavy as that of the emperor, and this letter made her afraid.

The emperor was ruthless and unfolded the letter, and when he read the contents of the letter, he couldn't help but collapse on the rosewood circle chair.

"Son?" The Queen Mother screamed in surprise, and her heart was even more terrified.

"Lord Wang! Oh no, the horse we bought this time was robbed. Lu Chen entered King Gong's study with a solemn face, and after hurriedly saluting, he told King Gong a bad news.

"What's going on?" King Gong frowned slightly, they had taken two prefectures this time, and they urgently needed to expand their troops, so they purchased a batch of horses from Daxing.

"The horses were robbed on the way back. All those sent were annihilated, and none of them survived. Lu Chen also frowned, this time the loss was not small.

Although he gained a lot of financial resources by capturing the two prefectures, he couldn't help but squander it.

Since ancient times, recruiting troops has been extremely expensive. After recruiting troops a few days ago, the armament was really insufficient, so they began to purchase, who would have thought that they would be cut off.

"Have you found any clues, do you know who did it?" King Gong's face was solemn, but this time he lost more than 200,000 taels of silver.

"I surveyed the place and thought it should be a well-trained army. Of course, it's just speculation, but there must be quite a few people anyway. It's just that when we found out that something was wrong, it was too late, and the traces at that time were no longer visible, and they had obviously been swept away. I don't know where the horses were taken, but I think they should be not far away. I have sent people to inquire in the past two days, and I have found no trace of a large number of horses, let alone pedestrians. ”

"Not bad! With so many horses, the goal is too big. As long as you hit the road, you will definitely be discovered. If you send someone to look for it again, this time it will be more than 200,000 taels of silver, and it will be a huge loss. ”

King Gong sighed, guessing in his heart who did it. He first excluded Gu Chengyu, because Gu Chengyu was still in Yuheguan, and his hand couldn't stretch out so long. With so many horses, Gu Chengyu didn't have so many people on his hands.

It would be even more impossible to let these soldiers guarding the border pass go out, the people he sent were all good, far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers.

However, Gu Chengyu brought such a few people with him when he came to the border, so it was naturally impossible to do such a big thing.

"Who does the prince think did it?" Lu Chen looked at King Gong, who was silent, and couldn't help but ask tentatively.

In fact, there is no need to think about it at all, he already has a candidate in mind.

"Who else could there be, it should be the fourth, right? He was able to hold his breath and wait so long before making a move. This king should also abide by the old law, and wait for this king and the second child to fight to the death before he will make a move. Who knew that this time he actually intervened, but it was beyond the expectations of this king. ”

King Gong snorted coldly and put the brush in his hand on the bookcase.

He has become accustomed to the style of the fourth child, and the fourth child has always been hiding behind the scenes, and he will come forward to bite you when he has the opportunity. It's not deadly, but it's also extremely disgusting.

"I think so too, it's just that when we buy a horse, we must go through the Yuhe Pass and the Yumen Pass. King Jing got the news so timely this time, could it have something to do with the border pass? ”

Lu Chen hesitated before he spoke. At the same time, his eyes were on King Gong, carefully observing King Gong's reaction.

"You mean to say that Gu Chengyu intervened?" In fact, King Gong also had this kind of speculation in his heart, but he didn't say it.

"It's just speculation, you have to wait until you check it before you can make a conclusion!" Lu Chen lowered his head, and when he saw King Gong's clenched fists, his eyes flashed slightly.

"Lord Wang, it's not good! We have a place to build weapons, and there is not a single weapon left! ”
