Proposing Marriage To The Female Villain At The Beginning

late at night.

The lights beside the pillar were swaying, and Qin Shu was writing stroke by stroke. The expression on his face was very calm, but the red clothes he wore gave him the feeling of a sword unsheathed.

With a creak, the door opened.

Xia Zehai, dressed in military uniform, pushed open the door and entered.

"It's so hard to escape after making such a big fuss."

"No problem."

Xia Ze Customs came to the door, walked over and asked doubtfully: "Why is Zheng Guan the only one in the yard?"

Qin Shu stopped writing, put the pen on the shelf, and said, "What I want to discuss with my uncle tonight must not be known to too many people."

Xia Zehai watched Qin Shu sit down and said, "I can see that you used to practice calligraphy slowly whenever you had something important on your mind."

"Well." Qin Shu was the first to ask about today's situation, "Uncle, what is the specific situation of King Chen?"

Xia Zehai put the helmet on the table and shook his head unbearably, "It's very miserable. There are many scratches on the body with sharp claws. A large piece of his left shoulder was bitten off and his heart was also ripped out. It was obviously killed by Monster. "

"His Majesty ordered Dali Temple, Jingzhao Mansion, and Zhenmo Division to jointly investigate, and the patrol battalion cooperated. However, Monster Race is hidden too deep, and there are too few clues at present. We can only guess the general direction of departure."

The Demon-Suppressing Division is an agency set up by Emperor Great Liang to specifically manage practitioners. It is similar to the secret service agency of Jinyiwei, and it directly reports to the emperor to do various things, including dirty things.

Qin Shu nodded. Monster Race had been hiding in Beijing for so many days without being discovered. How could they be found so quickly? But they were very smart and did not make a big fuss in the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon city of Kyoto. commit murder.

Just because he was the prince, Emperor Liang was furious and would not let it go. He launched a real city-wide blockade and search, and it was only a matter of time before he was found out.

"Uncle, was he scolded by His Majesty?"

Xia Zehai sighed and said: "The patrol camp is guarding Kyoto City. If this happened today when the two countries are friends, they will definitely be scolded. It is inevitable."

"Yes, I guessed it." Qin Shu was not too surprised. "My competition went well. No one in Daxia was my opponent. Your Majesty even awarded me a general with a mixed title."

"It's just that later His Majesty asked me to work in Prince Qi's palace."

"King Qi?" Xia Zehai frowned immediately after hearing this, and then asked: "Your Majesty asked you to go to work for King Qi?"

Qin Shu nodded: "That's right."

Xia Zehai fell into deep thought, and after a moment said: "The prince is the prince, and assisting the prince is the right way. You are so outstanding, and there are me and Duke Wei behind you. You should be sent to the prince's side, but His Majesty asked you to go to King Qi." work……"

Qin Shu said: "Your Majesty, my uncle should be able to guess what he wants to do when he does this, right?"

Xia Zehai was not a fool, and said: "Let you also participate in the battle for the right to inherit the throne, but the prince's foundation is deep, and the other princes have little chance of winning. Your Majesty's real purpose in letting you work in Prince Qi's Mansion should be to be the prince's whetstone."

Qin Shu said: "I think so too. If you are against the prince, you are naturally weak. If King Qi wins, it is said that he has the power of following the dragon. The loser may be able to survive, but his subordinates may not be able to survive."

The prince who loses the throne has a high probability of surviving because of his bloodline, but the subordinates who are outsiders have a very small chance of surviving, such as Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu. Cao Zhi lost the throne and lived well, but Yang Xiu was killed by Cao Cao He found an excuse to shake the morale of the army and killed him.

Unless he met an emperor like Li Shimin who could tolerate Wei Zheng, the former prince's subordinate, the two of them also brushed each other's reputations and had a good relationship between emperor and minister for the ages.

But there were too few Li Shimin, and Qin Shu couldn't bet that the prince was that kind of person. He might have been regarded by the prince as a person who must be killed.

Naturally, Xia Zehai also knew the ugliness of seizing a legitimate son. As long as he was involved, it would be difficult to escape. He was dissatisfied: "You are also a meritorious queen after all, but I want you to be a pawn to sharpen the knife. What a mean emperor!"

Qin Shu chuckled and said, "In the eyes of the emperor, you and I are just pawns to be manipulated."

Xia Zehai asked: "Xiao Shu, what do you think? If you want to support King Qi, my uncle will fully support you! We may not be able to defeat the prince!"

"No." Qin Shu showed his sharpness at this moment, but his tone was very calm and said: "I don't want to be a knife in other people's hands, I want to be...the sword holder."

"I want my uncle to help me seize power."

Being used as a pawn by the emperor and being dragged into the struggle to seize the heir, even if the support is successful, he will still be restrained by the new emperor. Qin Shu does not want to be manipulated by others, so he must be the one who manipulates others!

This is the style of a great villain!

Emperor Liang probably never dreamed that just by arranging for Qin Shu to see the crisis, there would be such a strong backlash.

Xia Zehai's expression was shocked and he looked at Qin Shu, who was dressed in red in shock. He was his sister's son, his own nephew, and his only relative in the world. He wanted to fight for power because he was involved in the struggle for the right to seize the throne, so he went to An extremely dangerous road!

This leap of thinking is really too big.

But looking at Qin Shu's appearance, he wasn't joking.

Xia Zehai remained silent for a long time, falling into silence, his thoughts flashing through the flickering lights.

Qin Shu did not let his uncle rush to answer. Normal people would not be able to figure it out so quickly.

But he believed in his uncle. If even his closest uncle doubted him and became a suspicious person, how tiring would it be to live.

After a long time, Xia Zehai took a deep breath, exhaled it heavily, and said: "Okay, but if you want to seize power, you must use your own ability to stand firm. I will help you at most."

He is a loyal person, but not a foolishly loyal person. Emperor Liang's use of Qin Shu as a whetstone has violated his interests.

"I know." Qin Shu said, "Uncle, now is the best time to take action and disrupt the situation."

Xia Zehai said: "How to say?"

Qin Shu asked: "Who benefited most from King Chen's death?"

"The most profitable one?" Xia Zehai pondered for a moment and said, "Prince, the most profitable one is the prince. Without a prince, there is one less person to compete with him."

Xia Zehai realized: "Do you think the person who killed King Chen was not Daxia and Monster Race but the prince? In order to make the prince step down?"

Qin Shu shook his head, "No, I don't have much interest in knowing who killed King Chen. With Teacher Shao Zhixing paying attention, Monster Race can't cause a fuss. The truth is not our focus."

"What we have to do is to make a fuss about the prince's gain this time, so that he can benefit even more, so that the emperor suspects that the thing that killed King Chen was not the mastermind of Daxia and Monster Race, but the prince's method to seize the heir apparent! "

Xia Zehai suddenly realized that Qin Shu meant that the current Celestial Beast clan's killing of King Chen would become a dispute over the heir apparent in the eyes of Emperor Liang!

As an emperor, he naturally knew about the party struggle to seize the legitimate son, but he could not bear to see the fratricide that occurred during the seizure of the legitimate son. This is also the biggest reason why the prince who failed to seize the legitimate son survived in the history books.

But today the sixth prince died, which was a taboo for seizing the legitimate heir!

Once Emperor Liang suspected that the prince had killed his own brother for the sake of party struggle, the prince would be disappointed in Emperor Liang's heart. Only when he was disappointed would the prince's status be shaken, and only when he was shaken could he have the opportunity to seize power step by step.

"I understand, what should I do?"

Qin Shu said: "The person who killed the Prince of Qi's Mansion is an important person. Only in this way can it appear that the prince is engaging in party disputes, which will make the emperor suspicious, and also allow me to have more say in the Prince of Qi's Mansion in the future!"

Xia Zehai took a breath, Qin Shu could actually come up with such a plan!

"This plan is feasible, killing two birds with one stone! But now that Kyoto is under martial law, it is too risky for you and Zheng Guan to do anything. Let me do the killing."

"I am still the commander of the patrol battalion. I know the patrol routes and the number of people in the patrol battalion. I know better than you when to take action and how to evacuate to a safe route."

"Okay." Qin Shu said, "In addition, I have some things that can help uncle."
