[Book 3] Cannon Fodder Little Husband [Quick Wear]

13.14

After attending the prince's wedding banquet, Wu Bai and Xiao Zimo went back to the house in a carriage.

    On the way, Xiao Zimo asked, "Why did you replace the sweet potato with jade before you set off?"

    Wu Bai explained: "We came back from Shuangyang County, and soon after we got off the pier, someone wanted to attack us. It can be seen that someone has been watching our whereabouts. The royal brother's wedding is imminent, but we suddenly went to Shuangyang County. Some people must be curious. The gift I prepared for the royal brother, but the sweet potato is not easy to give to the royal brother in front of everyone, so I changed my mind temporarily."

    "You're thinking well. Today, the third prince wants to find out what the congratulatory gift we gave to the prince is. Do you think those people on the dock were sent by the prince?" Xiao Zimo guessed.

"Probably not. There are many capable people under Brother Three Emperors. Even if you want to kill me, you should think of a foolproof plan. You won't just send those few people there." Wu Bai shook his head and said.

    He could see that the few people on the pier who wanted to kill them didn't have a clue.

    "Could it be Concubine Li? Her father gave us that night pearl before, and she seemed very unhappy." Xiao Zimo analyzed.

    "Concubine Li lives in the palace, and I do have some disagreements with me, but to send someone to kill us for a night pearl always feels a bit far-fetched, but she is indeed doubtful. When I give the sweet potato to the emperor tomorrow, Please help me investigate Concubine Li." Wu Bai said sternly.

    "Well." Xiao Zimo agreed.

    On the other side, the third prince came to Concubine Zhai's palace.

    "Emperor, why are you here?"Concubine Zhai asked with a smile.

    The third prince sat down and replied, "Mother concubine, Erchen has carefully thought about the candidates you mentioned last time."

    Concubine Zhai raised her eyes and said, "Then which one do you decide to choose as your concubine?"

    "My son thinks that the daughter of the Minister of War is the best match for my son," the third prince replied.

    "Tell me why you chose her?" Concubine Zhai actually felt that the three were similar, each with their own advantages, but she wanted to know Wu Chen's thoughts on choosing the daughter of the Minister of War.

    "Although Hu Dutong is the leader of the forbidden army, he is also the confidant of the father and the emperor. The son cannot guarantee that he will join the son because of his sister's marriage. Even if he really wants to join the son, the father will not be able to. If you trust him again, maybe the royal father will send another confidant to sit on the throne." Wu Chen analyzed.

    "What about Concubine Li's niece? Why don't you consider her?"Concubine Zhai asked.

    Wu Chen frowned and said: "According to Erchen's understanding, this Miss Ren has a bad character, is domineering and misbehaved, and Erchen needs a gentle and virtuous woman as his concubine, not one who often gives her The person who stabbed the Louzi will be the concubine."

    "But the fourth prince holds a heavy army, so you are willing to give up this military power?" Concubine Zhai asked.

    "The fourth brother's temperament is stubborn and resolute, and he is very disgusted with the matter of seizing the heir. This is the reason why he has been clinging to the frontier for so many years. I won't help Erchen because of this." Wu Chen said helplessly.
