Huaiyu is slightly cool

On the third day of the wedding, the eldest princess set off in a low-key manner with the [-] troops donated by Zhou Huai, and quickly headed south because of the emergency situation in the capital.

Until New Year's Eve, when Zhou Huai, who was recuperating from poisoning, showed up, Wu Mingsheng, Shen Hui and others discovered that he had been replaced by someone else, and the real Zhou Huai was nowhere to be found.

As the news spread, the Northwest trembled.The Zhou family stepped forward first, preparing to take over the power in Zhou Huai's hands, both hard and soft.Other ghosts and snake spirits from all walks of life or those who refused to accept the Zhou family also began to stir up troubles, using all means to show their abilities.

Without the evil god Zhou Huai sitting in town, all of a sudden, the Northwest was full of chaos and smog.There is constant gunpowder everywhere, and there is quite a chaos of princes fighting for hegemony.

Things are developing fast and the situation is critical, as if there are two invisible hands pushing behind the scenes.But fortunately, apart from Linghu Ji and Fang Zhongji among the Northwest Seven Prodigy, the others and Shen Hui, these 'old men' who have been affectionate since childhood are all loyal to Zhou Huai. With Wan private soldiers and countless spies in Ruoshuimen, the northwest is considered "stable" and there is no major chaos.

Shen Hui led many of Zhou Huai's diehard loyalists to intercept the eldest princess and others from leaving the northwest, trying to find Zhou Huai's whereabouts.On the one hand, he contacted Zhao Emperor Mo Ziqi to increase his troops on the border to contain Xirong and Qiang.At the same time, a bloody massacre was launched internally in order to quickly quell the civil strife.And when faced with the aggressiveness of the Zhou family, he refused to hand over power, and only sent people to negotiate with the Zhou family to delay time.

In the 37th year of Taiping, the third day of March.The eldest princess arrived at the capital with the remaining [-] troops through hardships and dangers, and the soldiers approached the city.

Five days later, the fourth prince was defeated and fled eastward.On the way, there was chaos among his soldiers, and the fourth prince was captured and sent to the capital to present to the eldest princess to pay his merits, and then he was imprisoned.

On March [-]th, the eldest princess held the imperial decree and became a strong regent.

Because the emperor's heirs are already weak, when the crown prince was killed, the fourth prince's crimes are yet to be determined, and the other princes and the males of the next generation were also murdered by the fourth prince. Seeing that Jing Guo's direct branch will face a state of having no sons to inherit the great cause At that time, the eldest princess adopted a one-year-old child from the clan as the crown prince, but she decided all major affairs in the court.

The first thing the eldest princess did in her regency was to reorganize the army and reorganize it.Or to be precise, it was to disperse the more than 3 troops who arrived in the capital.The eldest princess adopted Xiao Yu's suggestion and divided the [-] people into six divisions, surrounded them with [-] city guards, disarmed them in batches and put them in custody, and finally selected personnel from among them to fill the various armies. .After finishing these things, the ministers of rewards will deal with the aftermath of the coup. Among them, the handling of Wuliangcheng and Zhou Huai is even more important.

Zhou Huai didn't wake up until all the dust settled.Holding the teacup, he glanced around the strange room he was in, and then at the eldest princess in the outer wing who was rushing to review the memorial, and finally asked, "Is it the time when I wake up and the world has changed?"

The eldest princess turned her head to look at her, paused her hands, and then went back to continue reviewing the memorial.It wasn't until the remaining two or three memorials on the table were reviewed, and after taking the warm handkerchief handed over by the maid to wipe off his hands, that he walked towards Zhou Huai.

"How do you feel physically?" The eldest princess sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the person who had been in a coma for two or three months, and stroked Zhou Huai's forehead with some concern. Seeing that the cup in Zhou Huai's hand was empty, she took it and asked, "How about the cup?" drink?"

Zhou Huai shook his head, and asked again: "Where is this? The palace?"

"Ah."

"Good skill." Being able to do everything possible to get her out of the northwest is really a good skill!Zhou Huai smiled, but the praise in his tone was a little forced.

The eldest princess put down the teacup, held her hand, and said softly, "I just can't bear you."

Zhou Huai's smile was distorted when he heard this, and he stared at the eldest princess and asked, "Hehe. Did you take the medicine yourself when you gave me the medicine? You took too much!"

"The medicine given to you is just an ordinary drug. It has already been seen by the imperial doctor. It will be fine for a few days of recuperation. It will not cause any serious harm to your body. Of course, if you feel really angry, I can ask the imperial doctor to prepare a few more. I will take it for you." look."

Zhou Huai looked at her, and asked a little dumbfounded: "What's wrong with you? Suddenly..." Zhou Huai scratched his head and waved his hands in distress: "Say it directly, what do you want? Don't scare me."

"Did you forget? We are already married, and we will share weal and woe in the future and will never be separated. For the sake of our long-term relationship in the future, I have no choice but to take you back to the palace." The eldest princess was gentle and did not change, but held Zhou Huai's hand more often. It's a little hard.

Zhou Huai was taken aback, looking at the eldest princess who combed her temples and was courting her for no reason, she smiled, and asked solemnly: "I haven't drunk the wedding wine, and the bridal chamber has not been completed, how do you count?"

"These can be added later when there is time."

"Then when are you going to make it up?"

The eldest princess looked at Zhou Huai, and replied easily: "Let's wait until the world is truly peaceful."

Zhou Huai supported his forehead and sighed: "I thought that even if it was a dream, it could also be a dream of love, but it turned out to be the worst nightmare."

"You can still think about these things, which proves that you don't think it's the worst now."

Zhou Huai smiled lightly: "That depends on how you plan to deal with me."

"As long as you cooperate well, you will still be able to live in luxury for a lifetime. I will give you what I can, but don't think about the rest."

"I don't want to live in the palace. So, is it too late for Heli?"

The Eldest Princess smiled softly, and continued to use force with her hands, almost pinching Zhou Huai's hand, and then said: "In addition to the palace, there is also the Huguo Temple. You can choose one of the two."

"I exchanged the ten northwest states for my freedom, and I will not pursue the past. How about letting me go?"

The eldest princess shook her head: "I also want to agree very much, and I will return to you in the future. However, I made a deal with that person."

"What deal? Did he ask you to hand me over to him?"

The eldest princess nodded slightly, and said: "If you hadn't sent those 1 people to the palace, that person might not have made up his mind to help me. However, he has a condition that I should capture you alive..."

"Oh, it's a pity that we didn't send him to death because we didn't send him to death." Zhou Huai gritted his teeth when he mentioned the man.Then I remembered something and asked, "Then why didn't you hand me over?"

"you can help me."

"No, I can't help you. Everything I own is not mine." Zhou Huai smiled bitterly, but still advised her: "I have already lost, if you listen to him and hand me over, maybe you can let him help you."

The eldest princess was silent for a moment, then shook her head and said: "You are here, so I have a bargaining chip to talk to him."

"Are you sure it won't backfire?"

"Anyway, you can't let it go." The eldest princess said firmly, "You must have a bargaining chip in your hand to negotiate with him."

"Yes, but that's what I use to save my life."

"We can work together."

"It's late, I don't believe you."

"You will agree." The Eldest Princess said firmly and confidently.

Zhou Huai smiled and remained silent.

The two were silent for a while, and seeing that the conversation was fruitless, Zhou Huai lay back on the bed with a lazy expression, and asked casually, "How did you bring me out?"

"Switching."

"It's this trick again, how many fake Zhou Huai did you get?"

"If you can create one double, you can create countless doubles."

"It was the envoys of the Qiang Kingdom who helped transport the fake Zhou Huai into Yuehuai City, right? How did you cooperate?"

"It's just a relationship of interest."

"Oh." Zhou Huai nodded. The Eldest Princess answered every question, but Zhou Huai felt embarrassed to ask again.

The eldest princess looked at her, but said, "Can you tell me why he insisted on capturing you alive? Or, what use are you to him?"

Zhou Huai shook his head, looked at the disappointed eyes of the eldest princess, and smiled mischievously: "Why don't you guess?"

"Okay, then listen and see if I'm right." The eldest princess looked serious and serious, staring closely at Zhou Huai's expression and said, "You and he both came from another world, but you are not Father and daughter. Those tower-shaped buildings that he made you spend countless manpower, material and time to build may be something that can send you back. But now that those things are almost built, he wants to capture you alive...Since ancient times, sacrifices to heaven, earth and ancestors Sacrifice is required, can I guess: Do those tower-shaped things need some introduction or sacrifice? Like you?"

"..."

After a while, Zhou Huai said with a blank face: "When you came back from the northwest, besides taking me with you, did you also empty out the materials in the archives room?"

"Moved some, copied some. So, although I can't be sure, I think it should be pretty close. Now, are you sure that your chips are enough to save your life, or is it more likely to win by cooperating with me?"

"What are you afraid of?! I have already prepared a solution, once and for all." Zhou Huai blinked mysteriously, seeing that there was no one in the room except the two of them, he opened his mouth.

"Tell me."

"One of those energy towers has an underground crevice in the underground river. I sent someone to secretly expand a few of them and fill them with explosives. It is absolutely secret, and the quality and quantity are guaranteed. As long as one is blown up, I want to find another place Reconstruction is not so easy. And his life expectancy is approaching, whether he can live to that time is hard to say, let's see what he can do with me then?"

"Then why don't you do it? Have you ever thought that if he is lying to you, you don't need so many towers at all?"

"But I haven't researched it here yet. Maybe one day I can solve those mysteries and I can eliminate him in one fell swoop. Then don't I have to worry about it?"

The eldest princess frowned: "What does it mean to wipe out in one fell swoop?"

"If it was that easy to make him disappear completely, I would have sent someone to blow up the palace long ago. What I'm afraid of is that if he doesn't know who he possesses after death, it will be difficult to find him in the future."

"Then if you haven't found a way to eliminate him, what should you do?"

"Then leave it to fate."

"You resign yourself to your fate. I don't want the country built by my ancestors to be destroyed by two of you who don't know whether it's a human or a ghost." The eldest princess had a frosty face, as if she couldn't understand Zhou Huai's attitude very much.

"So, what do you want?"

Upon hearing the words, the eldest princess looked at Zhou Huai's smile as gentle as water, with all kinds of tenderness: "I do have a way, it depends on whether you are willing to help, Ah Huai?"

Zhou Huai trembled inexplicably, then smiled stiffly and said, "Can you let me go after helping you?"
