Chapter 580 Who is clear and who is dirty
There are two reasons why Xiao Qinyan wanted to deal with Qi Mu instead of Wang Yue.

The first one is that he has just returned to the capital, and he doesn't know what kind of power the tyrannical government has prepared behind Wang Yue, but Qi Mu's power is almost all in front of him, and it is easier to attack.

The second is that Wang Yuecai is an official from the fifth rank. Even if he kills chickens to warn monkeys, he is not enough to be that chicken in Qingliu.

Moreover, there have been two hat monster cases in Kyoto recently, one of which was based on the instinct of a traitor, using the same hat monster case to disrupt Qingliu's purpose, and the other is that the case was more unlucky, Xiao Qinyan's hat As soon as the demon aroused the Imperial City Secretary, the real hat demon appeared.

Because Wang Yue arranged Dali Temple staff near Xiao's house, the hat demon did not appear near here, so Wang Yue got nothing.

It's just that the hat monster escaped the Dali Temple on the bright side, but failed to escape the Huangcheng Secretary who was hiding in the dark, and was caught again by Gu Qianfan, who had been prepared for a long time.

Although it didn't affect the Xiao family this time, Xiao Qinyan felt that he couldn't always be passively beaten, he had to choose a target to act on.

It is not clear whether Wang Yue is an enemy or a friend, but Xiao Qinyan understands one thing, that is, Wang Yue and Gu Qianfan have a relatively good relationship. From the interaction at this banquet, it can be seen that as the only son who has a chance Help, he was a little reluctant to do it.

Having made up his mind, Xiao Qinyan made a high-profile announcement a few days after the night banquet at Xiao's family that he would take a boat tour. He deliberately spread the news that he went to the river to enjoy the moon without escorts, just to wait for Qi Mu's action.

Xiao Qinyan knew that Qi Mu would definitely want to use this to prove that the treacherous official died of the hat demon's scourge when he first ascended to the throne. Qian Fan, let him see Qi Mu's true face.

After all, Xiao Qinyan was superior in chess, and Qi Mu was really fooled.

After Qi Mu was called out by Xiao Qinyan alone to talk after the night banquet at Xiao's family, he was a little afraid that Xiao Qinyan and him would be caught in the same boat, so he was about to give up conflicting with Xiao Qinyan for the time being. Called over, specially exhorted.

It turns out that Commander Cui and Ke Zheng's disciples were responsible for the recent hat demon case. The purpose was to use the way of ghosts and gods to force the officials to choose one person to take the blame.

With the virtues of the officials, they would definitely not take this responsibility themselves, so Xiao Qinyan, a traitor who had just entered Beijing, could only bear it. After all, it was because he worshiped the prime minister that the hat monster appeared.

After being warned by Xiao Qinyan, Qi Mu no longer dared to pretend that he didn't know what was going on with the hat demon case. He decisively approached Commander Cui and asked them to change their target from Xiao Qinyan to An Guogong.

An Guogong is against the queen party, he is worried that the queen will become Wu Zetian.As long as he falls, the emperor will definitely doubt Xiao Qinyan, and Qi Mu will be able to pick up the plane and take over the position, which kills two birds with one stone.

After all, Qi Mu's ultimate goal is to get married, not to fight Xiao Qinyan to the death. If he dies, what's the point of defeating Xiao Qinyan.

It's just that Qi Mu knew that Commander Cui was the brother-in-law of Zheng Qingtian, magistrate of Qiantang County, and Commander Cui was raised by his sister, so he had a very good relationship.

In the secret report of his subordinates, Qi Mu discovered that Commander Cui's sister was in tears all day long, so he knew that Commander Cui would definitely not be able to bear revenge on Xiao Qinyan, and he would definitely hit it off with Ke Zheng's disciples.

Qi Mu actually knew these things a long time ago, but he probably kept silent and watched the development of the situation. If it wasn't for Xiao Qinyan's shameless person who said directly, as long as Qingliu took action against him again, he would only deal with Qi Mu, and Qi Mu would not I don't care.

You must know that Qi Mu is the one who takes care of his own people for the sake of his superiors. If it is not for his own benefit, he will not compromise.

It's just that whether it's Qingliu or the Queen's Party, they are all the so-called scholar-bureaucrats, these high-ranking people, no one has ever thought that those innocent people who died because they created the hat demon case are also a life, and they are also sons of the Song Dynasty. civil.

What Qingliu Queen's Party is, it's just people who gather together for the benefit of the drama.

At the beginning, Wang Yue didn't suspect that this matter had something to do with the party struggle, but he checked all the relatives of the two victims and the two hat monsters, and there was no conflict of interest at all. It can be said that it had nothing to do with it.

Since it has nothing to do with it, it can only be said that it is a random killing, but Wang Yue feels that most of the people who kill at will are full of food, which is obviously impossible in Song Dynasty.

The people of the Song Dynasty were running around all day long to live, so how could they have the energy to plan such ghosts and gods, only those who were full of food could do it, and the only people who were full in the Song Dynasty were scholars and merchants.

Businessmen pursue profits, and businessmen will definitely not do something as unprofitable as random killings, so who else can there be?

It can only be those so-called scholar-bureaucrats.

But most of the scholar-bureaucrats love fame, what made them come up with such a trick?
In the current situation, only Ke Xiang was dismissed and returned to his hometown helplessly, and the fact that Xiao Qinyan, the former governor of Suzhou, returned to Beijing to be called a prime minister was a major event in the court.

As for whether the Hat Demon is Qingliu or Queen's Party, things are now clear.

Xiao Qinyan just returned to Beijing, he must be looking for stability now, it is impossible to do it at this time, even if he does it, he should wait until he has settled down, it is impossible to do it at this time.

Then there is only one possibility, the mastermind of this hat demon case is those so-called Qingliu Party who serve the country and the people.

Now that he has a goal, Wang Yue is not idle, and immediately sent secret guards to watch every move of the Xiao family. He felt that Xiao Qinyan, the old fox, could not just sit and wait for death.

Wang Yue stood on the roof of an attic by the river, looking at Xiao Qinyan's building boat from a distance, and Gu Qianfan who was talking to Xiao Qinyan on the bank, while drinking, he calculated whether there were any loopholes in today's arrangement .

Wang Yue's own manpower must not be used. After all, this is a business. He doesn't want to reveal his hole cards, so only the manpower of Dali Temple is left. After such a long time, Wang Yue also has a few available people.

For this operation, Wang Yue entered the palace after discovering that Xiao Qinyan was swimming in the lake. After reporting to the officials, he secretly mobilized some troops from the imperial guard camp and divided them into several small teams. Each team had Dali The people in the temple stared at him. This was the strictest thing he could do, just waiting for someone to take the bait.

As for why Wang Yue did this, of course it was because he thought it was a good opportunity.

Xiao Qinyan wanted to lure the hat monster that Qi Mu accepted, and Qi Mu also wanted to take the opportunity to kill Xiao Qinyan. This was not a personal grievance between two people, but a life-and-death struggle between two factions.

If Wang Yue took the opportunity to make this matter a big deal, and even pushed the boat along the way and caused Qingliu to suffer heavy losses, it would cause the Houdang family to dominate. At that time, would the emperor still be able to sleep?

I didn't know what the emperor would do, but Wang Yue felt that if it was him, he would definitely not be able to sleep at night.

Wang Yue's reason for convincing the emperor was very simple. This is the capital city. If the prime minister of the dynasty was killed in the street, who would be their next target?
Who else has a greater position than Xianggong.

Therefore, in this round, Wang Yue stated that he was helping the queen party get rid of some people in Qingliu, which actually caused an imbalance of power.

Wang Ke didn't know Wang Yue's plan. He looked at Lou Chuan suspiciously. He didn't understand why Wang Yue was standing here today, so he asked suspiciously, "Master, it's getting cold, why is it blowing wind here?"

Wang Yue gave Wang Ke a white look. He didn't believe that Wang Ke couldn't see what he wanted to do, so he smiled and said, "Don't play dumb, guess what I want to do."

Wang Ke knew that he had been through a lot recently, so he acted without authorization from time to time, especially the last time he heard Zhao Pan'er's words, he transferred the Taolin guards away. This is a big taboo. Loyal ones just can’t stay idle, you, you’re too steady.”

How could Wang Yue not know this guy's character? He is talented in martial arts, but he is a rowdy person. If not, he would not have been transferred out of the dark guard camp to come to his side to obey orders. After all, apart from him and Wang Jing, everyone else Can't control him.

In fact, if it is placed in the army, this guy can be a general, but there is no one who is handsome enough to watch, and sooner or later he will die by himself.

Wang Yue thought that even if the army is deployed in the future, it will be many years later, he shook his head helplessly, and said bluntly, "I'm fishing."

Wang Ke followed Wang Yue's gaze and looked into the lake. From a distance, he could see two people standing on the pier in brocade clothes. They were probably children of nobles, which made him very uncomfortable.

Just one of them, why is it somewhat familiar?Wang Ke took a closer look, isn't that Gu Qianfan?He asked suspiciously, "The bait is Gu Qianfan?"

Wang Yue waved his hand, knowing that he was stupid, talking to this bastard for power, and quickly reminded, "How could it be only Gu Qianfan? Do you know who the person with Gu Qianfan is?"

Wang Ke looked carefully again, but he had not seen many people. He saw that the two people on the pier seemed familiar, so he asked suspiciously, "Who is it? Could it be Mr. Xiao?"

Wang Yue glanced at Wang Ke in surprise, he could be fooled by the blind, he shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile, "It's him!"

Wang Ke understood right away, and he said excitedly, "I understand, I remember the young master said that the purpose of the hat demon case was Xiao Qinyan, that is to say, the people behind the scenes will definitely bear it when they see Xiao Qinyan being singled out." Can't stop moving."

Seeing that Wang Ke understood, Wang Yue immediately began to give instructions for a while. He was afraid that Wang Ke would make his own decisions again, so he said seriously, "After a while, the people from Dali Temple will lead troops to catch the assassins. Watch out for me." Be careful, don’t let anyone slip through the net, but try not to make a move.”

Seeing Wang Yue's seriousness, Wang Cai nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, master, I won't run away!"

Wang Yue twitched the corners of his mouth, feeling very helpless. If Wang Cai hadn't been sent out with a mission, Wang Jing would have assigned it to Zhao Pan'er. He really didn't want to use Wang Ke. If he couldn't get it, he would really do some unnecessary things.

Xiao Qinyan on the pier was telling Gu Qianfan that when he married Gu Qianfan's mother, Qi Mu was one of the man's best men.

Gu Qianfan was stunned after hearing this. Qi Mu never told him this. Since he knew he was Xiao Qinyan's son, why did he let him enter the Imperial City Division and join hands with him to deal with Xiao Qin Word.

Gu Qianfan couldn't help remembering that when he was robbed and killed by Lei Jing's men, he had evidence in his hand, but Qi Mu told him not to deal with Lei Jing first, but to deal with Xiao Qinyan first, perhaps because he was afraid that he would make a big deal ?

Just when Gu Qianfan was shocked, Xiao Qinyan laughed. He said helplessly, "My silly son, you were deceived by Qi Mu. He just wanted to use you to take revenge on my political enemy."

Gu Qianfan was actually a little skeptical. After all, there were many things that didn't make sense as long as he thought about it, but he still couldn't believe it.

You must know that Gu Qianfan has always treated Qi Mu as his own uncle, but he never thought that he was lying to him from the beginning to the end.

Seeing Gu Qianfan, Xiao Qinyan still didn't believe it, so he quickly explained, "You have lived and died for Qi Mu all these years, isn't it just to be promoted to the fifth rank as soon as possible, so that you can earn the imperial order for your mother, and get the incense from the court to rebuild the tomb? I understand, so I have always respected your choice, but today I am already the chief assistant, and Qi Mu still wants to provoke our father and son, which is a bit too much. Didn't you ask me if I arranged the hat monster case? Let me tell you, yes yesterday, but not today!"

Gu Qianfan was stunned, the hat demon he caught yesterday was sent by Xiao Qinyan?It's just that before he had time to ask, he heard something was wrong, and immediately looked at Xiao Qinyan with wide eyes, and asked in disbelief, "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Qinyan saw what Gu Qianfan realized, and said proudly, "I'll let you see what kind of person you know Qi Mu. I go out today without a guard. Many people know that. Guess Qi Mu will I won't be able to hold back!"

Gu Qianfan knew that Qi Mu would definitely do it if he thought about it with his feet. After all, if the treacherous prime minister died at the hands of the hat monster when he first entered the phase, the so-called Qingliu would definitely not refuse such a temptation. He looked around quickly , wanting to see if the hat monster has come.

Just when he was in a daze, Xiao Qinyan quickly came to the boarding sampan by the pier, without any hesitation in his steps.

Although Gu Qianfan hated his father, he didn't want him to die. You must know that there was no guard on board. If the hat monster really came, Xiao Qinyan would definitely die.

Thinking of this, Gu Qianfan said excitedly, "Xiao Qinyan, you are crazy, come back to me!"

Xiao Qinyan saw that his son was in a hurry, instead of being angry, he was happy. He said bluntly, "You have two choices now, either you let the assassin kill me, or you save me. If you save me, Qi Mu will never trust you again!"

After Xiao Qinyan finished speaking, he stopped talking to Gu Qianfan and boarded his boat resolutely, singing "Xing Ke Xing" as he walked.

Wang Yue looked at this scene from a distance, and thought it was too funny, a traitor was so heroic, Qi Mu, the new leader of a group of Qingliu, actually used dirty tricks, who is pure and who is dirty!
At this time, there were countless people in black, who were dressed exactly like the hat demon, and appeared in the streets and alleys abruptly, causing people to scatter in all directions.

It's just that the hat monsters seemed to be in an emergency. Not only did they not kill people in the street, but they even showed no taboo to passers-by.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ke stopped going to support. He asked solemnly, "Young Master, why are there so many people? Do you have enough people?"

Wang Yue twitched the corners of his mouth. He didn't expect the so-called Qingliu to be so rampant, blatantly sending so many people to assassinate, and sending so many people, which made him depressed.

It seems that the plan needs to be changed.
