659 , the aggrieved concubine five
Jin Ke arrived at Mingyue Tower, found the prince's box, and walked over.
There was a guard in black standing at the door. The guard looked at her warily as she arrived.
"I, the Second Young Master of Marquis Xuanyong, would like to ask you to inform His Highness the Crown Prince that I have important matters to discuss with him."
Jin Ke held a folding fan in his hand and waved it back and forth, with a friendly smile on his lips, looking gentle and harmless.
The guards in black heard this and went to report it.
After a while, the guards in black came out and said to Jin Ke, "Second Young Master, His Royal Highness, please come in."
Jin Ke smiled and waved his folding fan.
"Wei Chen has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
Entering the box, in addition to the prince, there were several beauties playing the piano, dancing, and serving the prince to drink and have fun.
The prince's name is Ye Hongxue. He has a very delicate name and looks very delicate, but he also has the demeanor of a prince. After all, he is an imperial prince who has been cultivated since he was a child.
After seeing Jin Ke, he waved away the beauties and guards around him and let them go out. When there were only two people left in the box, the prince spoke.
He raised the corners of his lips, his eyes dull, "Isn't this the emperor's brother-in-law? What's the matter? The emperor's sister is not here, but the emperor's brother-in-law also comes out to eat?"
The prince has no favorable impression of Princess Mingyang, and even dislikes her. Naturally, he does not like Princess Mingyang's consort, who hates the whole house.
"Prince, I am here today not to steal food, but to form an alliance with the prince. I wonder if His Highness is interested?"
Jin Ke smiled calmly and waved his fan, bringing in the cool breeze.
Prince Ye Hongxue frowned slightly, "An alliance? The emperor's brother-in-law regards me as a fool. As the consort of Princess Mingyang, the emperor's brother-in-law should be very clear about the relationship between me and the emperor."
Forming an alliance? Haha, are you just joking? Or do you really think he is stupid? The relationship between Princess Mingyang and him can be said to be on the same level.
Jin Ke smiled and said, "Your Highness, you don't know Wei Chen's ambitions. Wei Chen wants to show his strength in the court, instead of just being a man hiding behind women. Wei Chen wants to be ambitious in all directions!"
"Moreover, the grievances between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Princess are not unknown to me."
"oh?"
When Jin Ke said that he had ambitions in all directions, the prince was hesitant to believe him. He did not completely trust Jin Ke, nor did he completely distrust Jin Ke.
After all, if you are a consort, you cannot hold important positions in the court. This condition alone makes the princess of this dynasty an existence that people with lofty ideals should avoid. Of course, for the children of the aristocratic family who are just waiting to die, Princess Shang is a good choice.
Choice, at least this way he can be regarded as entering the center of the powerful and making contributions to the family.
Jing of the Wu family was a talented person and the most talented person in Beijing. He had heard these reputations since he was a child. However, one day he suddenly disappeared. When he thought he died on the battlefield, he did not expect that he would become his emperor.
The brother-in-law is still the most annoying royal sister, so he somewhat dislikes him in his heart.
However, today was also the first time they met. He expressed his ambitions and wishes, and he was moved. He was the Crown Prince of Zhou Dynasty. If Wu Jinghe was really a genius, he also wanted to recruit talents for himself.
, but I don’t know if this is Princess Mingyang’s trick again, asking her consort to befriend him and stab him in the back when necessary.
Therefore, while he was excited, he was also very wary.
How could Jin Ke not know what he was thinking? Even if he had just guessed, he would have guessed it.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, doesn't trust his ministers?"
Jin Ke waved his folding fan, his eyelids slightly drooping.
Ye Hongxue frowned and did not answer her immediately, but it made Jin Ke feel confident. As a prince, she naturally had to think more. For example, she and Princess Mingyang had agreed on a trap for the prince to jump.
So, she smiled gently, trying to make her smile look harmless, "Weichen knows that His Highness doesn't believe it, but Weichen can tell you one thing, and you will definitely trust Weichen in the future."
"Your Highness, please don't forget that Wei Chen is still a disciple of Old Man Tianji."
"Wei Chen... is good at divination. I believe that with Wei Chen here, His Highness will have many good opportunities to succeed to the throne."
Jin Ke shook his folding fan and laughed.
Young man, believe in me, believe in me and you will have eternal life!
The prince's pupils shrank, "Second Young Master..."
Yes, Old Man Tianji is a god-like existence. If he hadn't accepted disciples casually, he would have wanted to be his disciple. I heard that he knew all the secrets of divination. It was just destiny that Old Man Tianji passed away two years ago.
.
Jin Ke smiled and said, "Your Highness, if you trust Wei Chen, Wei Chen is willing to serve you."
"Besides, Wei Chen and Princess Mingyang are not in love with each other. You don't need to investigate too much. You can find out just by asking any of the guards or maids of the princess's palace. You should rest assured."
"The Second Young Master also knows that I am the Crown Prince. There are countless people in the court who are eyeing my position. I have to be wary. Therefore, I hope that the Second Young Master will forgive me for my doubts about the Second Young Master!"
Jin Ke knew that the prince planned to form an alliance with her, but he was still too cautious, so he should still be wary of her now.
However, she didn't care about his tone and actions. After all, she didn't intend to convince the prince of her words in just two or three sentences.
"Then, please, Your Highness the Crown Prince, listen carefully to what I have to say next. A month from now, you will definitely be grateful for your patience today."
Jin Ke curled her lips, strategizing, and the prince was suddenly interested in her. He straightened up and listened carefully to what she said next.
"Your Highness, if the divination of the ministers is good, a plague will break out in Shu in one month, stretching across three counties. If you can solve the plague in Shu, your majesty will definitely praise you, and whether it is civil and military officials or ordinary people,
, will regard you as their king. However, there will be many troubles that will follow. The first is His Majesty’s suspicion, but..." Her eyes flashed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the next king, and he is justified. I believe that even if His Majesty
If I want to depose you, I must also consider the opinions of the civil and military officials and the common people."
"plague!?"
Ye Hongxue's pupils were slightly enlarged and she was a little confused, "Will there be a plague in Shu?"
Jin Ke nodded, "I don't dare to deceive His Highness the Crown Prince. There will definitely be a plague in Shu in one month. However, I have learned some medical skills from my master, and I dare not say anything else. But if we talk about the plague in one month,
, Weichen is also somewhat confident. When the time comes, His Highness the Crown Prince will rest assured that the antidote will be solved by Weichen."
Hearing her words, the prince was excited, then he had a lot of thoughts, and then he became calm, "If what the second young master said is true, and the second young master is able to solve the plague in one month, then I will definitely work with the second young master.
Form an alliance.”
The prince did not expect that Jin Ke deliberately poisoned him to show his loyalty to him. From his point of view, Old Man Tianji's apprentice had the ability of divination.
"Then, let's wait and see what happens in a month. Your Highness, we will be here today. I will take my leave now. If you want to contact me in the future, please let me send you a message."
