This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 451 Pressure
In an independent small courtyard behind Heshuo Palace.

Mu Xiqiu opened the door and walked in with a calm face. Ning Wan'er, who was sitting in the yard drinking tea, got up when he came back and asked, "Brother, how are you?"

Of course, she also knew about Li Qingzheng being imprisoned, Minister of the Household Department, and there was definitely something tricky about it.

Even though King Heshuo is above the court of Qi State, those civil servants cannot be ignored. If they are ignored on weekdays, they will still deal with the things they should deal with step by step. It doesn’t matter who is the emperor. I'm sorry, and I won't deliberately stir up some waves.

But if King Heshuo intended to deal with them, they would instantly become one.

But now Li Qingzheng's matter, if King Heshuo handles it carelessly, it is very likely to cause a backlash from the group of civil servants.

Mu Xiqiu and Ning Wan'er saw through this point, so they went to remind King Heshuo.

Hearing his sister's question, Mu Xiqiu closed the door, walked to the stone table and sat down, then shook his head and said: "Ye Lingxuan doesn't intend to let Li Qingzheng go."

Ning Wan'er was shocked: "Why? I don't believe he can't see the tricks in it."

Mu Xiqiu poured himself a cup of tea, picked it up, took a sip, and said: "Of course he can see it, but a few days ago, the group of civil servants headed by Jiang Zhengyang blatantly forced him to kill Zhang Qingchi in the court. Naturally, he was very uncomfortable, and this incident just gave him an excuse to frighten the group of civil servants."

Having said that, Mu Xiqiu paused for a moment, and then said: "Of course, he doesn't intend to let Li Qingzheng go, and he also showed it to those generals, just to let them know that he is afraid of those civil servants, but it doesn't mean he I'm afraid of them, if he is given a chance, what should be cleaned up will still be cleaned up."

Ning Wan'er frowned slightly: "Then you think Jiang Zhengyang will see the trickiness in it?"

Mu Xiqiu shook his head: "Probably not, after all, the authorities are fans. From their point of view, it is very likely that King Heshuo intentionally framed Li Qingzheng in order to suppress them."

Speaking of this, Mu Xiqiu paused slightly, and then said: "But this is not necessarily true, Jiang Zhengyang's city is quite deep and sophisticated, so maybe it can be seen that it may not be certain."

"Maybe?" Ning Wan'er frowned even deeper.

Mu Xiqiu stood up with his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky, then sighed lightly, and said, "I was afraid that Jiang Zhengyang would notice it, so I deliberately pretended not to notice it."

"What do you mean?" Ning Wan'er didn't understand.

Mu Xiqiu shook his head, expressing that he didn't want to continue talking.

Ning Wan'er wasn't angry because he teased her. She knew her brother, but he usually wouldn't say anything that he wasn't sure about.

She could only hear her asking: "Then Ye Zhen should have caused this incident, right?"

Mu Xiqiu nodded: "Besides her, there is no other person."

"But how could she have such a great ability to steal the day and day in the household department?"

"Of course someone is helping her. Didn't you also say that? Last time you hunted down Ye Zhen, but she was rescued by an inexplicable master at a critical moment."

Having said this, Mu Xiqiu suddenly paused, and said, "It's Da Zhou who came!"

Ning Wan'er stood up in shock: "Da Zhou?"

Mu Xiqiu's expression was serious, and he said: "It should be. We in Nanchu know about Daqi's current situation. It makes no sense that Dazhou doesn't know. Since they know, they will definitely send someone over!"

Speaking of this, Mu Xiqiu muttered to himself: "Da Zhou, Da Zhou, Da Zhou."

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something important, his expression suddenly became more serious, and he directly ordered the old Taoist priest and others standing not far away: "Send a letter to the people in Jingzhou immediately and ask them to make sure Wen Is Ruyan really there!"

Upon hearing the name, Ning Wan'er and the old Taoist were shocked at the same time.

The old Taoist priest was afraid of Wen Ruyan's force, while Ning Wan'er's thoughts drifted to the day when Ye Zhen was hunted down.

At that time, the palm of the supreme master was about to hit him, but he retracted it at the last moment, accompanied by a sigh that seemed to be nothing.

Could that be him?

Ning Wan'er couldn't react for a long time, but the old Taoist asked, "Master, do you suspect that Wen Ruyan has come here?"

Mu Xiqiu's brows have already frowned into a "Chuan", which shows that the name Wen Ruyan has put a lot of pressure on him.

"I'm not sure, but I'm not afraid of [-], just in case." Having said that, Mu Xiqiu once again told the old Taoist priest and others: "Do it immediately!"

"Yes!"

Seeing them leave, Mu Xiqiu murmured to himself again: "If it's really him, it will be troublesome."

Ning Wan'er finally came to her senses from this long-lost name, and the expression on her face was a bit inexplicable, and it was hard to tell what was going on in her heart at the moment.

Of course, she might not even know what she was thinking.

Hearing Mu Xiqiu's murmur at this moment, she forced a laugh, and said, "So what if he comes? Now that Ye Lingxuan is in control of the army, how big of a wave can he make with just a few people?"

Mu Xiqiu shook his head first, then sighed heavily, and said: "Now that Emperor Qi is not dead and the crown prince is still alive, it is impossible for Ye Lingxuan to usurp the throne at this time, which gives Ye Zhen a chance to breathe, and Wen Ruyan, you know a lot about this person, I don't need to say more about how powerful he is, right now I'm afraid that Ye Lingxuan will end up with a good hand but he will break the game in the end."

"Isn't it?" Ning Wan'er didn't believe it.

Mu Xiqiu went on to say: "How could it not be so? If I were him, I would have designed those civil servants to fall out with Ye Lingxuan like today, and then forced Jiang Zhengyang to fall to Ye Zhen's side."

"This is the first step. In the second step, I will take advantage of the time when Emperor Qi is still alive and Ye Lingxuan does not want his brother to usurp the throne. I will find a way to suppress the military generals in the court and eat away Ye Lingxuan's military power bit by bit. And if With Jiang Zhengyang's help, this matter will definitely not be too difficult."

"In the third step, I will quietly change the defense of the Changyue City barracks."

"Then when the time is right, Ye Lingxuan will be taken down in one fell swoop, and then Jiang Zhengyang and others will support the crown prince's enthronement, and let the undead Emperor Qi become the Supreme Emperor. At this point, the overall situation is settled!"

Listening to his eloquent talk, Ning Wan'er was stunned.

"Brother, this is all in your imagination, right? It's not so easy in reality, and Ye Lingxuan is not a fool, how could the situation turn into the situation you said?"

Mu Xiqiu smiled wryly, and said: "Ye Lingxuan is indeed not stupid, but his temperament is too indecisive. What's even more ridiculous is that he still has some family affection in his heart. This is a big taboo in the royal family! The Tian family has no relatives, he If things go on like this, things will definitely evolve as I said."

"Then tell him the news quickly."

Mu Xiqiu shook his head again: "He won't believe it. After we chased and killed Ye Zhen last time, he doesn't trust us very much now. If I tell him that Wen Ruyan is here, he will definitely think that I am here. He said that on purpose and put pressure on him, forcing him to usurp the throne first."

"What now?"

Mu Xiqiu sighed: "Right now, let's make sure whether Wen Ruyan is really in Jingzhou. If he's not there, he must be here in Changyue."
