The kneeling nine people were wearing uniform night clothes, and when they saw Bai Muzhen turn around, they all saluted him respectfully together, and greeted him in unison: "My subordinates have seen the master." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Get up!" Bai Muzhen's voice was deep and kind, and he looked at the nine people who stood up with soft eyes.

The nine people stood up and looked at Bai Muzhen, waiting for his orders.

Bai Muzhen looked at the nine people and said with a smile: "I summoned you here today, there are three things that you need to do. First, to find out who arranged for the six major torturers to enter the yamen to do things, we must find out the main messenger behind the scenes; second, to find out Yin Yanxue's past; third, to check Hua Xiaonan's past and personal circles, to see what friends he has. ”

"Yes!" These things that check people are all things that Shadow Six does. So, he should have answered.

Shadow Three saw that Bai Muzhen had finished what he was going to say, so he looked at him and reported: "Master, the emperor has left the palace privately more than half a month ago. Before he left the palace, he secretly called someone to investigate Prime Minister Wen and Taiwei Bi, wanting to grasp the evidence of their crimes. ”

"Oh, how could he think of investigating the two of them, what is the emperor's intention in doing this?" Bai Muzhen was surprised, he didn't expect that the emperor would investigate the prime minister and the prince at the same time. This move, once these two people know about it, he is not afraid that these two heads of hundreds of officials and the head of the military camp will give him a congestion, so that his emperor will be unstable?

Shadow Si listened, and said: "According to the information report of his subordinates, the emperor has set up another department by his side, which is called the Ministry of Shangshu." This Shangshu Department did a lot of things that should have been done by Prime Minister Wen and Bi Taiwei's subordinates. ”

"Oh?" Bai Muzhen pondered for a moment after hearing this, then looked at the nine shadows and said, "Prime Minister Wen is the head of a hundred officials, and his power is above ten thousand people under one person. And no matter how big or small things in the imperial court, they must go through the nod and permission of Prime Minister Wen, and even every time the emperor changes, he must go through the supervision and nod of the prime minister before it can be passed. In this way, for the emperor, his days as emperor were like a puppet of the prime minister, and he had no freedom to do anything. Not only does it have to look at the prime minister's face, but also with his consent, it is not interesting for such an emperor to be in front of him.

As for the military power of the Tai Lieutenant, it is a major problem in the emperor's heart. Although he also has military power, compared to the captain, it is simply a small thing. Therefore, for the emperor, the existence of the prime minister and the prince is his threat. In this way, the emperor, who is smart and wants to get rid of the puppet, will sooner or later cut off the real power of these two people. The emperor who is not smart will still rely on the real power and assistance of these two people, and be a puppet emperor intermittently.

Therefore, in this situation, if the emperor wants to cut the real power of the two, the best way is to get the evidence of the two of them, and then let people create some trouble for them, and find someone to sow discord. In this way, the relationship between the two will deteriorate day by day, and even accuse each other and frame each other. When the time comes, the emperor can easily cut the two of them together. ”

Bai Muzhen stopped when he said this, looked at the shadows and said: "Our emperor is a smart and elite domineering person, such a person, of course, will not be willing to be a puppet, he will definitely do everything possible to get rid of the situation of being controlled by the prime minister and the captain." If you want to get rid of them, now is the best time. ”

Shadow Two is a beautiful woman, the only woman among the nine shadows, and a wise woman. Moreover, she also admires Bai Muzhen very much. When she heard Bai Muzhen's analysis, she immediately understood the truth, and hurriedly said, "The master is right. Now Prime Minister Wen and Mrs. Bi are making a big fuss about retiring and recruiting relatives because of Wen Qianjin, although they don't have a clear statement, everyone knows that these two people have made a clear and internal enmity. In their hearts, they have long regarded each other as enemies.

Especially Bi Taiwei, because Wen Qianjin forced him to quit his marriage, it was a big insult to him. He is still sending people to arrest Bai Muzhen, but unfortunately his people have not found Bai Muzhen until now. ”

Speaking of this, everyone laughed, thinking that in this way, the imperial court, which had been stable for a hundred years, might change.

Next, Bai Muzhen and the nine shadows summarized and arranged the affairs in the cabinet. Before I knew it, the night was already deep, and Bai Muzhen's meeting with the nine shadows had come to an end.

Seeing that the monthly gathering was about to end, Shadow Er was a little reluctant to leave, so he looked at Bai Muzhen and asked, "Master, when do you plan to return to the Shadowless Pavilion? There are still many things waiting for you to deal with and arrange in the Pavilion." ”

The other eight shadows smiled knowingly when they heard this, and after making a request to Bai Muzhen, they all performed light skills and left, leaving only the second shadow still waiting for Bai Muzhen to reply.

Bai Muzhen smiled slightly: "I'll go back in a while." Of course he knew Shadow Two's thoughts, but he had always cared for her like a friend. Therefore, he never reacts too much to her, lest she misunderstand, which will be even more troublesome.

Shadow Er originally thought that Bai Muzhen would say more, so she would follow his words and continue, and then, he continued. In this way, if you continue to talk about it sentence by sentence, she will be able to spend more time alone with him. Who knew that Bai Muzhen was such a faint sentence, so that she could no longer find the courage to continue, let alone the courage to stay. So, she could only reluctantly salute him, and after making a farewell gesture, she also performed light skills and left.

For a time, in the dark woods, only Bai Muzhen was left.

He stood in front of Hua Xiaonan's tomb and thought of Wen Aya, so he thought of Prime Minister Wen. Originally, Prime Minister Wen's life and death had nothing to do with him, but now it can't be said that it doesn't matter. After all, he is going to marry Wen Aya home in the future, so Prime Minister Wen's life and death have a lot to do with him.

Just when he was thinking about how to take precautions and save Prime Minister Wen from being framed by the emperor first. He suddenly heard a faint sound of footsteps coming from the direction of the river, he raised his face to look at the river, and saw Bi Shuge walking alone towards this side.

He smiled slightly, and quickly found a hiding place to hide.

After a while, Bi Shuge came to Hua Xiaonan's grave and stood silently for a while. Then, he took out a bamboo tube from his arms, pulled the stopper, and raised it towards the sky. I saw a beam of silver light rising into the sky, and after a while, it floated in the air, like a star in the sky.

Bai Muzhen saw it and knew that Bi Shuge was going to summon people, and he also knew what he was calling people for. I wanted to go away, but I thought about it, I still stayed and took a look, to see what kind of person Bi Shuge had called, and how would he arrange for others to do things?
