"That's right! I want to leave the capital! Leave this battlefield!"

Facing Xiao Yiheng's astonishment, Xiao Rui revealed his plan.

Xiao Yiheng was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Really?"

"Second brother doesn't believe it?" Xiao Rui said: "That's right, if I can easily believe it, I don't need to go through a lot of trouble, but my original intention is indeed so."

Xiao Yiheng asked eagerly: "Seventh brother, why don't you explain it in detail to solve my confusion? If my brother can help, he will definitely not refuse."

Xiao Rui nodded, and immediately "confessed" his sincerity, and said: "Second brother, the reason why I strive to win the matter of entertaining Dayan's envoys is to fulfill the task assigned by my father and make my father happy. There will be rewards, so I took the opportunity to make a request to leave the capital, although my father will be angry, but I believe that with my repeated requests, this long-cherished wish can still be achieved."

"Really?" Xiao Yiheng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.

Xiao Rui nodded solemnly, and said: "Second brother, you know better than me who the supervisory censor is in front of the palace. Since my father doesn't have any hope for me, why don't you let me go? The position of crown prince is reserved for those who are capable. Some people are simply impossible, so don’t stand in the quota.”

After speaking, Xiao Rui laughed at himself.

Xiao Yiheng nodded, convinced three points, but still worried: "Seventh brother, do you really insist on leaving Beijing?"

Xiao Rui pointed his right hand three fingers to the sky, and even swore: "I swear to the sky, I hope that I can serve as the supervisory censor, leave the capital, and be at ease. If there are false words, I will bid farewell to the crown prince forever."

After swearing, Xiao Rui asked with a smile: "Second Brother, do you believe this?"

Do you believe it? Xiao Yiheng must have believed it.

To swear by the position of the crown prince, if there is any falsehood, it will be Xiao Rui's own fault.

"Seventh brother, I just discovered now that you are the most insightful and insightful person among our nine brothers." Xiao Yiheng admired: "Instead of wasting this in the waves, it is better to go out and enjoy yourself. In this way, the seventh brother likes Fame is greater than profit." Xiao Yiheng read: "Xian Wang? Xian Wang? Xian Wang! Seventh brother, I have a hunch that you will become a famous Xian Wang in the Great Xia Kingdom!"

Xiao Rui blinked, really admiring Xiao Yiheng's association, but this virtuous king is more meaningful than that salty king.

"Seven Sage Kings? Thank you, Second Brother, for your praise." Xiao Rui stood up and cupped his hands with joy on his face.

Xiao Yiheng laughed loudly, and said: "Seventh brother, if you have this ambition, you will surely spread your wisdom far and wide in the future..."

"Hey, it's not like me...I aspire to be a person like my father and devote myself to the Great Xia Kingdom. Unfortunately, the other brothers are all outstanding. It is not yet known who will win the crown prince." Xiao Yiheng tentatively said: "Seventh brother, Who do you think among our brothers can become the prince?"

"Of course it's the second brother!" Xiao Ruijian said: "The second brother is born of the empress. He has both literature and martial arts. Civil servants and military generals all admire the second brother, saying that the second brother has the demeanor of the father when he was young. Who among the brothers can compete with you?"

Being praised face to face, the cold and arrogant Xiao Yiheng is also a little bit elated.

Oh, how can this be so true?

"Actually, elder brother is also very good, and he is the eldest son." Xiao Yiheng said modestly: "Didn't elder brother invite you yesterday? It's just how did I hear that there was no banquet in Prince Jin's mansion yesterday?"

"Oh, I didn't go." Xiao Rui was not afraid of blushing when he lied, and said, "Actually, it was not King Jin himself who invited me, but a guest from the mansion. After careful consideration yesterday, I sent someone to refuse me. As for the reason, it is naturally because Second brother invited me today."

Xiao Yiheng heard it and laughed loudly: "We are brothers, so if we invite you to a banquet, we must invite you in person. This is respect. What does it mean to send a guest?"

Xiao Rui said: "So the second elder brother is tolerant and benevolent, he can assist the emperor at the top, comfort his brother at the middle, and deter all officials at the bottom, just like what the emperor said, the position of prince belongs to the capable."

"Seventh brother, you really have learned a lot, and every sentence speaks to my heart." Xiao Yiheng was very happy. He sighed secretly in his heart, why did he ignore such a talented younger brother before? If he can be pulled into the camp, the crown prince will be the first.

Xiao Rui said again: "Besides, my brother has a merciless request."

"Seventh brother, just say, if I can do it, I will do my best!" Xiao Yiheng said immediately.

Xiao Rui got up, cupped his hands and thanked: "Second brother, please tell Mr. Zhou, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, can you assist me in the matter of Dayan's envoy to complete this mission?"

"Don't worry about small things, I will go to my second uncle's house tomorrow and ask him to help." Xiao Yiheng said: "You have already asked the emperor to let Jin Wang be the deputy, and he will naturally take care of Honglu Temple. Now the Ministry of Etiquette is also giving us full support, and the Seventh Brother can do it boldly to meet with the envoys of Dayan, and it will definitely be done brilliantly, which will make the emperor happy."

Xiao Rui thanked and said: "Then brother, I would like to thank the second brother again."

The two chatted very happily, and then they were able to make up for each other.

When he got drunk and committed a crime, Wu Zhanfa escorted Xiao Rui away.

As soon as Xiao Rui left, the drunk Xiao Yiheng immediately woke up.

"Husband..." Li Xiuer asked the servant girl to bring a hot towel, and wanted to wipe the sweat off his forehead, but Xiao Yiheng stopped him.

"Go down." Xiao Yiheng said indifferently.

Li Xiu'er froze, bit her lip, and backed away with a disappointed expression.

Xiao Yiheng stood in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and suddenly asked: "Is Xiao Rui's words credible?"

"What do you think, Your Highness?" A hoarse voice suddenly came from a dark place not far away.

Xiao Yiheng smiled and said: "Since he dares to swear, he will definitely leave the capital. As for his plans after leaving... Haha, as long as he leaves the capital, is it that easy to come back?"

"Your Highness is brilliant." The man in the dark laughed softly.

"Send someone to spread the content of the banquet, so that the emperor can overhear it inadvertently." Xiao Yiheng said indifferently.

"Don't worry, Your Highness." The man in the dark replied.

Xiao Yiheng looked at the moon in the sky, and said leisurely: "The heights are extremely cold, so the one who can persevere to the end is a lonely family..."

The widow is me.

Xiao Rui got into the carriage, suddenly sobered up.

Xiao Yiheng will act again, why not him. As for whether what he said could deceive him into believing it, Xiao Rui was still very sure. After all, I swear to God, it is still the most authoritative in this era.

More importantly, Xiao Rui wanted to spread the word about his plan to leave Beijing through Xiao Yiheng's mouth. Emperor Xia already knew Xiao Rui's plan, so naturally there would be no disappointment and indisputable indignation in his heart, and he could also deceive others, so why not do it?

I have relied on everything in the first place, let others fight first, and if I plan well, I will naturally gain the benefits of the fisherman.

"Hao Yun's nomination certificate should be ready." Xiao Rui suddenly smiled, ready to beat this mad dog lord tomorrow.
