With one hand she heals, and the other hand she kills, the princess vows to rule the world!

Chapter 256 Regret

Baili Moqing half leaned on the windowsill, a hint of self-mockery on his face.

At first, he didn't guess it either.

It was only after he saw Baili Qingren coming and combined it with the title of first-class prince that he figured it out.

"When I moved against the three major districts, I already expected that my father would be suspicious of me. However, I didn't expect that the person who came would be you."

He initially thought it belonged to the eldest princess.

But later, the eldest princess let Nangong Xin enter the garrison camp, and he realized that he was wrong.

If she is really the eldest princess, then her focus will not be on Shen Chuan of Beidi.

She came here with only one purpose given to her by her father, which was to test the true condition of his body.

Later, Baili Moyan's arrival made him a little suspicious, but he finally rejected it.

After all, the original person in charge of the three major workshops was Baili Moyan. With such a serious incident happening in the three major workshops, Baili Moyan must at least be blamed for negligence!

Therefore, it is unlikely that he would be asked to investigate the person behind the events of the three major districts.

It wasn't until he saw Baili Qingren that he finally understood. Only the Emperor's uncle was the most suitable for this role and had the ability.

Baili Qingren sighed softly and admitted, "Yes, my brother asked me to come here to find out who is behind the incident in the three major districts. He actually suspects more than just you, he also suspects Old Four and Little Eight."

"However, he couldn't think of anyone other than you who could have such a drastic approach."

"So, my royal brother asked me to verify this matter, and at the same time, to confirm your physical condition."

Baili Qingren was in a difficult situation.

As a prince, he must obey the emperor absolutely. Otherwise, given his past achievements, it would be very difficult for him to survive safely.

However, Baili Moqing was his most admired nephew and the prince he had the highest hopes for. How could he bear to push him to the guillotine?

As if seeing his worry, Baili Moqing grabbed a handful of snow from the windowsill, rolled it into a ball, and threw it out.

"Uncle, you don't have to worry about me. I mobilized the three major districts, not only to give Xiaojiu a warning, but mainly because I really want to save Tianqi."

"The list I gave you contains the most suitable candidates to run the three major workshops. Moreover, they have no personal relationship with me. I believe that with my father's ability, he will be able to find out whether what I said is true or false."

"Once he finds out, he'll naturally know that I have no intention of interfering in the affairs of state."

Baili Qingren disagreed with his statement and couldn't help showing pain on his face, "You know, your idea of saving Tianqi is the biggest mistake for my brother!"

The royal family is very complicated. Sometimes, black is black and white is white, but more often, black is both white and white is both black! How to draw the line in the middle depends entirely on the mood of the person.

Baili Moqing said that he wanted to save Tianqi, which was equivalent to saying that Tianqi had rotted in the hands of the current emperor, and was also telling the current emperor that he wanted to step in and rule the world!

This is coveting!

The second son's affair might be a frame-up, but coveting the throne is not a frame-up. Because, if the emperor thinks so, then you are the one!

"I've thought about this as well."

Baili Moqing gave him a reassuring smile.

"I have kept evidence of Xiaojiu's assassination attempts. Later, I will give this evidence to the emperor's uncle. When the time comes, the emperor's uncle will take it to father and say that I attacked the three major districts in revenge for Xiaojiu's assassination."

In this way, his motive was not to covet the throne, but a simple fight among princes.

Father, don’t you like to watch scenes like this?

"Xiaojiu really wants to kill you?"

Baili Qingren found it hard to accept. They were brothers, so was that position really that tempting?

Baili Moqing chuckled, "Uncle, you've also been through this before, so is there any need to be so surprised?"

If it weren't for the struggle for imperial power, why would he have lost all his power and become just an idle prince with a nominal title?

Baili Qingren gave a bitter smile. That's right, being born in a royal family, what more could one expect from family affection?

Fortunately! Fortunately, not every royal family member is so ruthless.

Thinking of this, Baili Qingren looked at Baili Moqing with a deeper fondness in his eyes.

"Then, have you guessed Xiaojiu's purpose for coming to Beisha City?"

Baili Moqing pondered for a moment, looked out the window, and his face was full of frost.

Is it hard to guess? Actually, it’s not difficult.

He must have known the news of his restoration of the title a long time ago, and the news of the peace talks with the Northern Di must have reached Tianqi on the day the Northern Di army was defeated.

He has such a deep "personal relationship" with Beidi. If the peace talks are successful, who can guarantee that his affairs will not be leaked?

Therefore, it was impossible for him to allow the peace talks to continue.

Especially when he knew that the candidates for peace talks were from Baili Moqing and Shu He's side, he would not let the peace talks succeed.

"Sabotage the peace talks."

Baili Qingren looked at him, and besides liking him, there was also a bit of surprise and pity in the depths of his eyes.

"If you can really sit in that position, I think Tianqi will be free from internal and external worries for the next few decades, or even hundreds of years."

Unfortunately, given the current emperor's paranoid personality, the possibility of him taking that position is very slim.

Baili Moqing looked back at him with a very relieved smile on his face.

"Uncle, I'm actually just like you. I'm not interested in that position at all."

"However, even if I don't sit on it, I won't let anyone who doesn't match it sit on it."

Baili Qingren understood.

I just couldn't help but feel sorry for him and for this country.

"Then how do you want me to help you?"

Baili Qingren probably never dreamed that he originally came here to investigate Baili Moqing, but now he has to help him.
