Fengmou Jiangshan

Chapter 178 Second Princess

Liu Jia was usually cautious in his words and deeds, but Mu Tiannan was taken aback by his question.

"Your Majesty was shocked last night. He was resting in the palace. He specially asked you to come here to caress the public and take care of the state affairs temporarily. Don't you believe me?" Mu Tiannan questioned confidently.

"Then, where is Mrs. Shao? Why don't you see Mrs. Shao?" Someone asked again.

Mu Tiannan still said unhurriedly: "Shao Huangfu is taking care of His Majesty in Zichen Palace. Tomorrow, he will come out to meet you adults." Mu Tiannan sneered secretly, the whole palace was under his control, his name was Shao Qing If you come out to show your face, Shao Qing has to come obediently!Hmph, these people are really stupid, can Shao Qing explain anything by showing her face?

"Since it is His Majesty's intention for Mu Fangfu to take over the state affairs temporarily, I and other ministers have nothing to say. However, we can't rest assured that we can't see His Majesty as to what is going on with Your Majesty! I also ask Mu Fangfu to report on your behalf. I would like to elect representatives of the third and fourth to greet Your Majesty!" Liu Jia said again.

Mu Tiannan hated secretly, but said with a smile on his face: "This is what it should be! Besides, His Majesty has already anticipated your wishes, and His Majesty ordered Prince Li to have an audience with him after he retires!" Gu Qinghua has been favored and favored by Gu Qinghua, and he belongs to the Gu clan, so it would be great for him to visit Gu Qinghua to find out what happened. Although Mu Tiannan replaced the third and fourth representatives proposed by Liu Jia with Prince Li alone, it would be inconvenient for everyone Opinions, but each look is very unconvinced.

"Your servant obeys the order!" Prince Li came out and cupped his hands up calmly, without any signs of abnormality.

"Your Majesty has an order. You all go back to the yamen and finish the errands in this yamen. If there is anything undecidable, you can submit the papers. If you have nothing else to do, you can leave the court!" Mu Tiannan Zhong Zheng said, There is absolutely no intention of claiming power.

The officials didn't expect him to say that, and they couldn't help but feel a little dazed. Most of them thought that Mu Tiannan would definitely take this opportunity to wield power and pretend to be powerful, so they all felt disgusted with him.Unexpectedly, he only had such a few words, and the message was really just a message, and he had no interest in seeking power. Everyone felt that they were villains, and for a while, they looked at him with traces of guilt .

What Mu Tiannan hated the most was the sympathy of others. Seeing the expressions on the faces of His Highness and ministers, he was so angry that he almost roared!Finally, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "Everyone is fine, I will take my leave first!" After speaking, he turned around and left the court surrounded by the young eunuchs, and went straight out through the side door.

There was an explosion in the courtroom, worrying about Gu Qinghua's body and the problems left over from last night's riots. Only a few waking up were secretly worried: Your Majesty has always been in good health, and it's not that he has never seen strong winds and waves. It's not a day's disagreement with the King of Cheng'en County. Even if His Majesty is surprised by the sudden incident, the King of Cheng'en County will definitely not be so frightened that he can't go to court!Taking a step back, even if His Majesty is really frightened, he will definitely come out to see the ministers at this time so as to calm people's minds!

If she doesn't show up, there are only two possibilities, one is that she is seriously injured and unable to move, and the other is that she is controlled by Mu Tiannan...

Either way, it's not a good situation...

On the pretext of cleaning up the remnants of the rebels, Mu Tiannan closed the city gates tightly and searched Zhaifeng City wantonly.

After five days in a row, there was still no trace of Gu Qinghua.

Under the urging of all the ministers and the strong protests and dissatisfaction of the people, Mu Tiannan was under pressure and had to falsely spread a "oral order" to open one gate in each of the four directions for the people in the city to enter and exit.Of course, when you go in and out, you have to be interrogated.

Seeing that Gu Qinghua's papers were getting more and more, Mu Tiannan kept them all silent, and was so angry that he gritted his teeth in Zichen Palace.Feng Shifu's brows also became tighter.

"The people from Jiangbei Military Camp and Jiangnan Lushan Military Camp don't know what's going on, why don't they come!" Mu Tiannan couldn't help frowning.

As long as the elite soldiers from the two barracks come, he wants to see what kind of faces these ministers who don't take him seriously will look like!
Feng Shifu said with a leisurely smile: "Tiannan don't worry, in order to keep their whereabouts secret, their movements will be slower, maybe, they will arrive tomorrow!"

"If you don't come again, I'm afraid the situation created by hard work will not last!" Mu Tiannan was full of resentment.

As long as those two elite troops come and have the power to back people's hearts, he can order the imperial doctor to announce that Gu Qinghua is dead, and then he can replace it with a maid of similar stature and face shape. Carefully look at the dead man's face, and then order the makeup maid to put on a layer of thick and gaudy makeup, wear a beaded hairpin, and put on a fancy dress, who can tell the difference?Even if someone doubted it, who would dare to speak out?At that time, Prince Li can come forward and arrange for a child from the Gu clan to become the emperor. Then, as the "husband of the emperor", he should naturally take on the important task of raising the young monarch. Replace it, put in his confidant, he can just find an excuse to deal with Su Yan, and then deal with Gu Qingshuang, with these two military achievements as a foundation, plus coercing the emperor to order the princes, and his subordinates want to add yellow robes, He is also helpless...

This is a procedure that he has planned and planned countless times. The most critical step has already been taken. Although the step is not very clean, he has finally come here!Gu Qinghua will make up for this loophole sooner or later!A woman, without the protection of the Habayashi Army, without the status of an empress to rely on, and no other confidant army except Su Yan, she can just keep her name incognito for the rest of her life. It is not so easy to turn over!

Mu Tiannan sneered, Su Yan's brilliant soldier, as long as he and his brother Shufu attacked twice, they would be wiped out in the blink of an eye...

However, the last link of the most critical step stuck him firmly. The people from Jiangbei Military Camp and Jiangnan Lushan Military Camp have not appeared until now!

On the sixth day, Mu Tiannan was waiting in the palace feeling overwhelmed and fidgeting. He ordered the guards to drag five eunuchs out to vent their anger, but there was still no news.

Unexpectedly, Cao Guangming, his confidant guard, rushed in panting and called "Master!" Mu Tiannan stood up suddenly, his eyelids twitched, staring at the visitor and said: "Say it!" His heart suddenly jumped. After leaving Lao Gao, there was a hint of excitement in the nervousness.

The main forces of the two major military camps that he has been looking forward to for a long time will come soon!
"Master, the second princess and the second princess are back! They have brought two thousand soldiers, and they have arrived at the gate of the city!" Cao Guangming dared not meet his gaze, and said bravely.

"Second Princess?" Mu Tiannan's breath stopped suddenly, and he couldn't believe it, "Second Princess of Southern Border?"

"...Yes..." Cao Guangming lowered his head even lower.

Mu Tiannan was furious, and couldn't help cursing: "It's unreasonable! She, how could she come back suddenly!"

"..." Cao Guangming couldn't answer this, so he had to keep silent.

Mu Tiannan finally came back to his senses, and said coldly, "Has the news spread?"

"Yes," Cao Guangming swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with difficulty: "The second princess has sent her cronies to post notes to the clan mansion, the Ministry of Rites, the six yamen, and Prince Li's mansion. I'm afraid—"

Mu Tiannan's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he said coldly with tense nerves: "Understood, you go down!"

Cao Guangming hurriedly withdrew with relief.Mu Tiannan hurriedly found Feng Shifu and told him about the sudden return of the second princess Gu Qingshuang to the capital, before Mu Tiannan could ask anything, Feng Shifu's face changed in horror, and he exclaimed: "So, there is really a traitor! The traitor had already passed the news to the second princess, otherwise—ah, I just don’t know whether the traitor is with Mu Hongru or with us..."

Mu Tiannan was still somewhat suspicious of Feng Shifu - because among his subordinates, the only one he was not sure about was Feng Shifu. It was not so easy to pass this news to the second princess who was thousands of miles away without revealing his identity. thing.But when Feng Shifu spoke, the doubts in Mu Tiannan's heart disappeared immediately, and he subconsciously followed his train of thought.Yes, although Mu Hongru is dead, as are the main core members, but how could it be possible for the entire Mu Party to be wiped out?As long as there is one left, it might be a traitor!

At this moment, he couldn't afford to think too much about this question, so he had to put it aside, and said with a frown: "The second princess has already arrived outside the city, what should I do?"

Feng Shifu smiled bitterly, sighed and said: "In the current situation, besides inviting the princess back respectfully, what else can I do?"

Mu Tiannan was suddenly depressed, and his face suddenly darkened.

Gu Qingshuang returned to the capital openly, and the news had already spread throughout the city, Mu Tiannan was only playing Gu Qinghua's banner in front of everyone, and he couldn't openly quarrel with Gu Qingshuang.As Feng Shifu said, there is really no other way except to invite her back!
"So what if she comes back!" Mu Tiannan sneered, "This is not her territory, how big a storm can she create! I want to see what she wants to do when she comes back!"

Feng Shifu smiled slightly, looked at Mu Tiannan meaningfully and said, "The second princess once swore not to return to the capital for the rest of her life, but she returned to the capital during the rebellion of the King of Cheng'en County and His Majesty was bedridden in fright. Think about it, what would others think?" she?"

Mu Tiannan's heart suddenly brightened, and he couldn't help laughing out loud: "Mr. Feng's words are true! She came at the right time, and she was the one who took this basin of dirty water, so don't blame me! Well, this is called Welcome her!"

Mu Tiannan's side had just made up their minds about when Prince Li and the Minister of Rites had asked to see him, and what they were discussing was what the second princess should do.

Mu Tiannan very democratically invited the emperor's husband, Shao Qing, to discuss with him, pretended to "ask" Gu Qinghua for instructions, and then passed on Gu Qinghua's oral order, telling the prince to go out of the city with the Ministry of Rites, and welcome the second princess back to the capital according to the princess guard of honor , because the princess mansion is no longer there, and the sisters have not seen each other for many years, the second princess is specially given to live in the palace and accompany her, who can bring 100 entourages and soldiers.The rest were stationed outside the city, and the officials of the post station were responsible for food and daily life.
