Imperial Palace

Jinzhi walked into He Yuer's bedroom

"Empress, the sent people have failed!"

"What? Even a fool can't deal with it?" He Yuer said angrily.

"The people sent were all experienced secret guards. I think there must be someone around the prince to protect him, so he didn't succeed."

"Who can a fool have protection?"

"Empress, don't forget that although the prince has no power, Nangong Jinse is still there. Although she does not have military power now, she must have some of her own power, so it may take some experience to deal with them."

"Damn it, a fool prince and a nominal marquis, I don't believe that I can't deal with them anymore!"

Jinzhi looked at He Yuer's hatred and said in confusion: "Empress, Concubine Lian has been in trouble with us recently. Why is Empress still distracted from dealing with Nangong Jinse and King Xuan?"

He Yuer narrowed her eyes and said with a sharp expression: "If they were in the imperial capital, I might not have taken action, but now they are far away in the empty city, which is a good opportunity for us to get rid of them. As for that Yunlian, I don't know what crazy he has been doing recently, and he is targeting us everywhere. It's really a headache!"

"Then, do you have to send someone to the empty city?"

"Well, go find some experts and make sure that Nangong Jinse and the others can't come back."

"yes."

Two days later

Lingyun, Nangong Jinse, and Hao Lianche sat in the lobby.

Ling Yun: "Those women have been in the government office for a few days. If this continues, it may not be a solution!"

Hao Lianche: "Then let them go home. Anyway, we have some directions now, just keep an eye on those few people."

Nangong Jinse: "I think what they are looking for will definitely be among those people, so there is no need to worry about other people, so it's better to let them go home."

Ling Yun: "Since the prince and Jinse agree with the subordinates, I will arrange for them to go back immediately and then send someone to stare at the girls."

Hao Lianche and Nangong Jinse nodded at the same time, and Ling Yun got up and walked out.

Hao Lianche picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip at Hao Lianxuan outside the room.

"Can the person who assassinated the fifth brother be found?"

Nangong Jinse: "It's He Yuer!"

Hao Lianche said with some surprise: "It's her!"

Nangong Jinse: "It's not surprising that she has always had a grudge against me and the prince."

Hao Lianche: "Although that's the case, she was too bold and actually asked someone to openly assassinate the fifth brother."

Nangong Jinse: "The mountains are high and the rivers are far away. If there is anything wrong with the prince, who will doubt her? I think she is much better than others."

Hearing this, Hao Lianche turned to look at Nangong Jinse and said, "What do you mean?"

Nangong Jinse: "King Che Conghui, I don't need to point out these words you should understand."

Hao Lianche nodded and said, "I understand, I just don't know if they will attack us?"

Nangong Jinse: "It's not us, it's you. Now the prince has no threat, and I have no military power, so their opponent is you."

Hao Lianche: "If you don't say it, I've forgotten a little. I forgot that I'm in the royal family, and even if they attack me, I won't blame them."

Nangong Jinse: "I didn't expect that King Che was so broad-minded. Do you really don't care about power or are you unable to compete?"

Hao Lianche looked at Nangong Jinse again when he heard this.

"Jinse! Do you want to hear the truth?"

"Naturally, if you want to say it."

"Okay, then I will tell you that I want the high throne and have the ability to fight for it. But I am afraid that once I embark on that road to fighting for power, I will no longer be me!"

After hearing this, Nangong Jinse said nothing.

The two fell silent for a while, and after a while, Hao Lianche said lightly:

"Actually, if you were by my side, I think I would have taken this path very firmly."

"Me? Heh! I don't like this palace. I like to wander around the world to make my home. Besides, even if you treat me as your sister, I can't accompany you for the rest of my life. At most, I will take the throne with you."

Hao Lianche felt a little heartbroken. It turned out that in Jinse's heart, he could only be a relative, not a lover!

Hao Lianche asked unwillingly: "Jinse, do you have to treat me as your brother?"

Nangong Jinse blurted out and said, "What if it is?"

In fact, Nangong Jinse never thought that Hao Lianche would like her, after all, Hao Lianche always regarded her as her sister. And since she had Hao Lianxuan, she could no longer tolerate others.

Hao Lianche said in disappointment: "Since you can't stand by my side, what's the use of me wanting this throne?"

Hearing this, Nangong Jinse looked at Hao Lianche with a strange look: "What does this have to do with me?"

"Ha! It doesn't matter if you say it doesn't matter!"

"Why do I think you are weird today?"

"Yeah?"

"Um."

"Haha! Just think I'm going crazy occasionally! Oh, by the way, why did you suddenly ask about my throne?"

"I just think this throne will fall into the hands of you some people sooner or later, but I hope that person is you."

"Why?"

"Not why."

"Do you want me to ascend to the throne?" Hao Lianche asked seriously.

Nangong Jinse: "It's not a question I want to think about or not. I just hope that one day the person who will become the leader will be you, not the other two."

Hao Lianche: "Since you hope, then I will be as good as you wish?"

Nangong Jinse: "As I wish?"

Hao Lianche: "Yes!"

Nangong Jinse chuckled and said, "Why do you feel like you are planning to fight for the throne for me?"

Hao Lianche: "Isn't it okay for you?"

Nangong Jinse: "But why?"

Hao Lianche: "Just think I'm making an excuse for the throne for myself!"

Nangong Jinse: "This is OK."

Looking at Nangong Jinse's gentle smile, Hao Lianche's heart felt warmed.

Nangong Jinse: "Since you plan to compete for the throne, I will definitely help you. Although I have no military power now, at least my heart is on you."

Hao Lianche smiled and said, "Okay!"

Although Nangong Jinse did not want to participate in the royal struggle, if she wanted to pull Hao Lianying down, someone would have to take the throne. Among the three princes, King Jing and King Che, only King Che was the most at ease. She should not make things difficult for Hao Lianxuan after he took office.

Hao Lianche looked at Piaoxue outside the door and said softly:

"Jinse!"

"Um?"

"When I rule the world, I will promise you to be your home in the world!"

Hearing this, Nangong Jinse was stunned and turned to a faint smile and said, "Okay!"
