Chapter 1828 Return of the Dead 26

In fact, in addition to Bai Zhiji, the regent was also worried about age.

The average life span of people in this era is not long. The regent sees that he is getting older year by year, and he is also afraid that something will happen. If the time is too long, he will die before he succeeds. Wouldn't he regret it to death?

This worry is not groundless - the regent has always felt a little lack of energy recently, and he is not as able to come up with ideas as he was when he was young.

——Actually, the Prince Regent is still young, and he feels low on energy. In fact, it is because he has been poisoned, but the poison is very mild. He only feels low on energy, thinking that there are too many things to do, he is too busy, and he will not pay attention to himself. Thinking about being poisoned.

Needless to say, this poisoner was the late emperor's back-up man arranged for Emperor Jianning.

An Ran didn't know that if someone hadn't poisoned the regent, or if the world had been weakened by the power of her butterfly regent, he might not be able to act for a while.

However, whether the regent acted on time or not, it made no difference to An Ran. Anyway, with her current strength, she could deal with him, but it was a bit troublesome to find a time to deal with him. Because she was in the harem, it was difficult to get in touch with the regent, so she was now worried that she would not be able to kill the regent in the palace before he took action.

In fact, she could sneak into the Prince Regent's Mansion and kill the Prince Regent. However, although her martial arts skills are good now, the guards in the Prince Regent's Mansion are equally good. The guards are extremely tight. She is afraid that if she doesn't kill someone quietly, others will find out, and it will be difficult to do so. To escape from the Prince Regent's Mansion, although there are many treasures in her space to ensure that she will not die because of being trapped in the Prince Regent's Mansion, it is naturally the best if she can not use those expensive props, so she is in the palace, her own territory. Better to start.

On this day, An Ran discovered that the regent had begun to contact many people and prepare for action.

Seeing this, An Ran couldn't help but feel anxious.

She had to kill the regent before he took action. If he really waited until the day he took action, his helpers would definitely take action together. It would be difficult for her to defeat four hands with just two fists. After all, she only had martial arts, not cultivation, so she couldn't do anything. Area controls other people's actions.

Thinking of this, An Ran felt that she must lure the regent to the palace to take action.

But to bring this to the palace, she had to find a reasonable reason, otherwise the regent would not come, and would alert the snake.

An Ran thought for a while, and then on this day, she said to Emperor Jianning: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. I would like to ask the regent and his wife to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival with us. Your Majesty, can you tell the regent?"

An Ran thought that the regent wanted to have a good Mid-Autumn Festival before taking action, so after much deliberation, An Ran could only find this opportunity.

Emperor Jianning naturally didn't know that he was about to be in disaster. Hearing An Ran say that he wanted to ask the regent and his wife to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with them, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Why do you want to ask them? If they don't come, they will spoil the fun, and you won't be able to spend a good holiday." alright."

An Ran sighed with a worried look on his face and said: "This is not my parents. They said that the regent is getting stronger and stronger, and I am worried that he will usurp the throne, so I want to treat them to a meal. I want to see What do they think? Don't they really want to usurp the throne? If they really do, let's see if we can win them over first and see if we can get them to give up the idea of ​​usurping the throne. If they can't win over them, they will insist on usurping the throne. Then we have to think of ways to survive."

Emperor Jianning couldn't help but fell silent after hearing this.

Anyone who knows that their status is about to be insecure will be in a bad mood.

After a long while, Emperor Jianning said, "Okay, I'll ask him."

In fact, there is nothing to ask. He really hates the regent. However, now that he is subordinate to others and his position is in jeopardy, and he has no other ability to keep his position, he can only ask directly and put his glimmer of hope in this. In the question, as An Ran said, when they find out that they can't be won over, they will have time to think of a way out.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jianning couldn't help but regret. Thinking about his father and the others, why he never thought that a certain emperor would have something that threatened his life, and didn't build an underground tunnel in the palace. If he built an underground tunnel, now he Even if your status is not guaranteed, you can still escape through the underground tunnels and survive.

It's better now. There is no way out. Once the throne is lost, even his life will be lost. No matter how stupid Emperor Jianning is, he knows that once the throne is gone, it is impossible for the regent to keep him. Every time he thought of this, Emperor Jianning felt very frightened and thought about how he could save his life.

Not to mention the fear in Emperor Jianning's heart, it was said that Emperor Jianning conveyed An Ran's words to the regent.

In the past, Emperor Jianning and his wife had meals with the Prince Regent. For example, during the Chinese New Year, they would eat together.

However, they had never eaten together during the Mid-Autumn Festival before, which made the regent wonder whether they might have some conspiracy.

However, even if there is a conspiracy, he is not afraid. After all, there are so many guards around him, how can he be afraid of two puppets?

Thinking that this might be the last time he would have dinner with them, the regent decided to be kind and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with them.

But the regent agreed, but Bai Zhi didn't plan to go because she didn't want to salute An Ran.

If Bai Zhi doesn't go, the regent will naturally not force her to go. He immediately said: "That's okay, there are a lot of people in the family, and they need support, so if you don't want to go, then don't go."

So on the Mid-Autumn Festival, the regent went to the palace alone.

Of course, the so-called "one person" means that his master is one person, and there are still a lot of guards and servants around him. There is going to be an incident. Naturally, he doesn't want to have any accidents. He takes a lot of people with him wherever he goes. , although he didn't think that Emperor Jianning, who was being watched closely by him, could pull off any tricks. He should be safe, but he, who was always cautious, still brought many people with him wherever he went. As the saying goes, drive carefully. It's a ten thousand year ship.

An Ran breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had really come. What she was most afraid of was that the regent would not come to the harem no matter what. If she was only in the front court, she would not be able to contact him. In that case, she could only It would be too risky to assassinate him in his house.

When Emperor Jianning saw the regent coming, he looked calm and said, "Uncle Emperor is here. Please give me a seat quickly."

Emperor Jianning hated the regent so much that he never had a good attitude towards him. The regent knew that he was not deep in the city, so he didn't take it seriously. In fact, he quite liked such a nephew. After all, if he was a He still has to worry about dealing with people who are very deep in the city.

The regent then took his seat, and the uncle and nephew began to eat.

Since men and women sit at separate tables, it would be troublesome for three people to sit at two tables, so the three of them use the sharing system. Each person has a small table in front of him, and there are all kinds of wine and delicacies. Speaking of which, it is better than a group of people sitting at a large round table, or An Ran really likes the Eight Immortals table, which is made with separate portions. Apart from anything else, it's clean and hygienic.
