Chapter 518: Mo Yuan's scheming

After Li Wenbo and Li Wenhyun left, the eunuchs around the emperor told him that Zhang Shucheng had been imprisoned.

After hearing this, the emperor thought that because of him, many soldiers died in vain, and immediately couldn't sit still, and led the eunuch to the prison through gritted teeth.

Besides, Mo Yuan's face turned blue when he learned about the battle at the border pass, and this result was something he didn't expect.

He originally thought that Zhang Shucheng would secretly steal and sell the grain and grass at the border pass, and then trick foreigners to capture the border pass, because there was no supply of grain and grass, no matter how brave the soldiers at the border pass were, they would not have the strength to resist if they were not full, and defeat was a matter of course, but he never thought that because of Li Yuqing's relationship, the border pass was not only defended, but also the invading foreign countries were wiped out in one fell swoop, he really underestimated Li Yuqing's financial resources.

If he heard that victory Mo Yuan's face had changed at the border pass, and when he heard that Zhang Shucheng had been arrested, his heart would be cold, don't forget that it was Zhang Shucheng who he instructed.

If Zhang Shucheng was taken to the capital, and as soon as he forced a confession, he instigated the confession, then he would have to bear the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is not another crime, if it is confirmed, even if he succeeds in winning the throne in the future, he will not be recognized by the world.

As soon as he thought of the consequences, he couldn't sit still, so not long after hearing the news, he immediately secretly summoned the ministers who were recruited by him, but after the people came, he found a problem, he recruited several fewer people who did not come, and it was precisely those who did not come who were recruited by himself by special means.

Thinking of how he had won over these people in the first place, he didn't have to think that these people should have been co-opted by others in the same way, that person was none other than Mo Xuan.

Mo Yuan was even more angry when he thought about it, he suddenly found that the longer he waited, the worse the situation became, so this time through discussion with everyone, he finally decided to start fighting back, everyone thought that he couldn't wait, and couldn't wait to be the emperor, but everyone didn't know about it, Mo Yuan did this purely because he was afraid that after Zhang Shucheng returned to Beijing, he confessed that he had instructed him to collaborate with the enemy and betray the country.

Mo Yuan's counterattack was naturally indispensable in the ranks of Zhao Wan'er's father, Zhao Wenang, and Mo Yuan knew that as long as Zhao Wan'er was by his side for a day, Zhao Wenang would definitely not betray him.

Thinking of what Zhang Wenang had said to him at the beginning, Mo Yuan asked everyone to leave and left him behind.

Besides, Zhao Wenang, he came after receiving Mo Yuan's order, but after he came, he sat in a corner and drank tea, and did not participate in their discussion, and now he is still drunk his own tea by the old god who is still left.

Even knowing that Mo Yuan had been looking at him, he didn't say anything, to be honest, he probably knew what the reason he was left behind, but thinking about Mo Yuan's recent attitude towards Zhao Wan'er, Zhao Wenang really couldn't swallow this breath, he wanted to help Mo Yuan purely because he wanted Zhao Wan'er to live a better life, but now that he knew that Zhao Wan'er was not happy with him at all, so what was the point of him helping him.

Mo Yuan had been waiting for Zhao Wenang to speak first, but seeing Zhao Wenang's attitude, he knew that he blamed himself because of Zhao Wan'er, and he was unwilling to deal with him.

Thinking of this, although Mo Yuan was dissatisfied, because he could use him, he could only laugh and say, "Lord Zhao, why didn't you say a word when you came over today, could it be that this prince did something bad and offended you." ”

Zhao Wenang had planned to be indifferent to Mo Yuan all the time, but when he heard him say this, he was very angry, why was he unhappy, didn't he know? Thinking of this, he put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, looked at Mo Yuan and said, "What did the third prince say, your status is so noble, even if there are really any micro-ministers, you don't dare to have any dissatisfaction."

Mo Yuan's face stiffened when he heard Zhao Wenang say this, to be honest, the reason why he said that was that he was sure that Zhao Wenang didn't dare to say that he was dissatisfied, but he didn't expect Zhao Wenang to say it directly, this was not a slap in the face, Mo Yuan wanted to get angry, but when he thought that Zhao Wenang was still useful, he endured his anger, put on a smile again, and said, "Lord Zhao is not because of Wan'er, if that's the case, then you can rest assured, this prince will go to her every day from tonight."

Zhao Wenang's face was also stiff when he heard Mo Yuan say this, and he didn't know whether to be happy or what to do for a while, because he knew that Mo Yuan said this, not because he cared about Zhao Wan'er, but purely to win himself over and help him.

Although he was very ashamed of Mo Yuan's approach, as long as Zhao Wan'er could be happy, he was willing to do anything, so he said, "Since the third prince said so, I hope you can do it, what do you want Weichen to do for you."

Mo Yuan smiled when he saw such a change, and said in a cold voice after half a sound, "Li Wenbo and Li Wenhyun will come back from the border in the near future, and the two of them will definitely become an obstacle to the progress of this prince, so they can't stay, Lord Zhao can have useful people, I wish this prince a helping hand." ”

Zhao Wenang's body shook when he heard Mo Yuan say it, and he said in disbelief after half a sound: "The third prince wants Weichen to send someone to assassinate Li Wenbo and Li Wenxun when they come back." ”

Mo Yuan nodded after listening.

Zhao Wenang couldn't help frowning when he saw him nodding and said, "Weichen can't help you in this matter, the third prince should ask for another high."

Mo Yuan listened to Zhao Wenang and asked puzzled, "Why".

Zhao Wenang replied, "Li Wenbo and Li Wenxun are from the Protector General's Mansion, although our Guogong Mansion and the Protector General's Mansion have no contact in the past, in the final analysis, there is also a layer of kinship, how can I send someone to kill them, if my father knows about it, he will definitely not let me go." ”

Mo Yuan heard Zhao Wenang say this, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Lord Zhao, aren't you kidding, the Protector General's Mansion is indeed related to the Guogong Mansion, but what does this have to do with you, don't forget that it is Li Yuqing who really has something to do with it, Li Yuqing is on Mo Xuan's side, and Mo Xuan and I are incompatible, if he really becomes the emperor in the future, do you think he will let me go, Wan'er is my imperial concubine, I am not good for her, and she is not much better."

"You" Zhao Wenang couldn't help but stretch out his hand and point at him after listening to Mo Yuan, unable to speak for a long time, and after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down and said, "Third prince, you have to force me to do this." ”

Mo Yuan heard Zhao Wenang say this, and smiled again, "It's not that this prince forced you, this prince just told you the truth, what to do, you can do it yourself."

"If I did, what would happen to my father. ”

"Guogong is old, and he can't make the right choice for many things, it's time for you to help him choose, don't forget, what did you tell me in the first place. ”

Zhao Wenang was shocked when he heard Mo Yuan say this, and couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by what the third prince said?" ”

"What does Lord Zhao think, that's what it means, there is still a period of time before Li Wenbo and Li Wenxun return to Beijing, this prince hopes that you can make a choice during this time, this prince looks forward to your performance, don't let this prince down, otherwise I don't think Wan'er will be happy. ”

"You" Zhao Wenang didn't know how to answer what Mo Yuan said again, and finally could only turn into a sigh.

Having said that, everything that should be said has been said, and there is no need to continue to talk about the rest, Mo Yuan asked Li Wenang to leave, and he also kept his promise to go to Zhao Wan'er.
