As soon as Empress Meng made a move, she moved like thunder, as fast as lightning, and the envoys of Wei were still drunk and dreaming of death (?) Suddenly, the shocking news has come from Bei Liang.

The third prince Fuqu Muqian and the deceased princess Li fornicated/adultered, and was caught by Queen Meng in the East Palace after being lifted, and it is said that when he was caught, Fuqu Muqian had not yet gotten off the bed of the Great Li family.

For the Hu people, it is normal for the elder brother to die, and it is normal for the wife to be taken care of by the younger brother, and there are many widows and sisters-in-law, which is not something worth criticizing, at most it is not a good personal relationship.

But the problem lies in the identity of the frustrated herd.

He is Jiuquan and Dunhuang Taishou, the husband of Princess Li Jingai of Xiliang, Jiuquan to Xizhou, where Dunhuang is located, depends on the marriage of the two to maintain a stable exhibition, the people rarely revolt, Li Jingai's brothers are very protective of their sister, and rarely take the initiative to make trouble.

But this does not mean that the remnants of Xiliang have no grievances.

The contradiction between Beiliang, Nanliang and Xiliang has always been there, the three countries were originally mortal enemies, although Beiliang destroyed Xiliang and occupied Guzang, but did not choose to deal with the problem of the remnants by means of appeasement, but to win over the local wealthy clans and Gaomen in Beiliang to forcibly suppress it, plus marriage and other means to maintain the relationship between Beiliang and several other countries.

Li Jingai is a woman who understands the general situation, and she also knows that the equality of the remnants of Xiliang is maintained by the marriage of the two, so she will turn a blind eye to no matter how bad things are, but Queen Meng forcibly opened her eyes, so that she could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Princess Xingping originally wanted to get Li Jingai's help to summon her to Beijing, but now it has become a slap in the face. After Da Li was imprisoned, she also rolled out the adultery between her and Peng Xuan and several other people, but fortunately, Queen Meng gave Fuqu Mengxun a little old face and did not pull out his affairs.

The prestige of Fuqu Muqian fell to the lowest at once, and the great prince died resisting the invasion of Rouran, and he himself was the heir for many years, and his prestige was unmatched in Beiliang, especially among the old ministers of Beiliang.

The most important thing is that Queen Meng's action conveys a message, and the Hou Party began to officially compete for the position of the prince of Bodhi, rather than being pushed by others in the back.

After Fuqu Muqian was sent to the Inner Palace, the officials of the Meng faction began to actively wander, and the call for "Lishizi" became louder and louder, and Fuqu Mengxun was forced to not go to the court for three days.

Consulate.

"General Hua, I think it's time." A civil and military official of the Wei State said with a smile, "At this time, if you force Fuqu Mengxun to immediately determine the candidate for marriage, he can only make Fuqu Bodhi the son. Because it is impossible for him to marry the prince to the Wei State."

"Is it because of his body?" Hermulan asked, "He's so bad?"

"The imperial doctor we brought has observed his complexion, he has a very strict thirst-quenching disease, as long as he is emotionally unbalanced or overworked, he will be sick, although he has not diagnosed the pulse, but there is no doubt that he is terminally ill, and the Daluo Immortal will not be able to save him when he comes."

Liu Zhen told everyone the information he had got.

That's why Queen Meng couldn't sit still. If Fuqu Mengxun does ascend to the throne, she and Bodhi will surely die."

The female status of the Lushuihu people is also very high, and the legend says that the queen of their Shang Dynasty is a good woman, and the countless Lu Shuihu people buried in the tomb of the good woman are proof.

So in Beiliang, if Queen Meng is tough, it is also very likely that there will be a queen mother regent.

It is impossible for Fuqu Muqian to be willing to put a queen mother on his head, and there is a younger brother who can succeed to the throne at any time, once the death of Fuqu Mengxun comes, it is the time for the two factions to start fighting.

Queen Meng made a move, directly attacking the weakness of the Fuqu Muqian, and the leaders of the Jiuquan faction and the Dunhuang faction now have to worry about how to prevent the mess of possible turmoil in Xiliang, and they can no longer care about continuing to operate the Wei State.

He Mulan is not strong in politics, but she has two good teachers, Tuoba Tao and Cui Hao, and she has long learned to "advance as retreat", first aggressively, asking for a price, and then waiting for the other party to compromise to the point she wants.

The next day, He Mulan directly held the scepter and asked Fuqu Mengxun to immediately choose a candidate for marriage, and thought that Fuqu Muqian's personal virtue was a loss, and hoped to replace Bodhi as the person to marry.

As soon as this remark came out, the whole court was in an uproar.

The envoy of Wei directly stated that "Fuqu Muqian's private morality is at a loss", so even if Fuqu Mengxun expressed Wei Guofuqu Muqian as the crown prince, Tuoba Tao can also use this article to refuse.

Although he was sick and eventful before, he did not do anything excessive, on the contrary, he was personable, and he also showed considerable martial courage in the plum garden before, and many ministers of Wei had a high personal opinion of him.

But easily, Queen Meng gave his handle to the Wei people.

Incest is a big thing, small is small, and if Wei wants to make him big now, it must be big.

Once even Bodhi is in his hands, Fuqu Muqian will not be able to establish a son, and Fuqu Mengxun will hang, and Wei can set him up as the king of Liang at any time and lend a large army to him to go back to the throne.

The situation began to fall towards the Meng family, because no one knew if the Meng family had reached any agreement with the Wei State, and the Wei State was precisely the key to determining the position of the prince.

With the accident of Fuqu Mujian, the Meng family also began to act.

The Meng family army guarding Guzang and Zhangye began to assemble, and behind Bodhi, there were a cadre of East Palace officials who were assisted by Fuqu Xingguo and Fuqu Zhengde, and they frequently entered and exited the palace. After Fuqu Muqian was told about the Inner Palace, Jiuquan sent officials to move around, and the entire Beiliang was paying attention to the next move of Queen Meng and Fuqu Mengxun.

For them, the game of one king and one queen is the real one. [,！ ] of the game.

Is it to set up Fuqu Bodhi for the son of the world in exchange for the safety of the Fuqu Muqian, or to insist on setting up the Fuqu Muqian as the son of the world, and finally force the Meng family to mutiny?

The answer is obvious.

On the third day, Fuqu Mengxun finally went to the court, and set up Fuqu Bodhi as the son of the court, but Fuqu Mujian was also released from the inner mansion and was still a candidate for this marriage.

Because Fuqu Mujian was going to Wei to get married, he just lost his position as the Taishou of Dunhuang and did not punish him more.

This result can be said to have excited everyone in Hermulan.

Changming Palace.

"Why are you doing that?" Forced to ask Queen Meng's frustration, Meng Xun seemed to be many years old, "Those internal officials are also your people, aren't they?" You deliberately let them sue the Ministry of Pastoral Affairs and push it on Li Shun?"

"I don't know what the king is talking about." Queen Meng's expression was very frightened, "Bodhi has been assassinated so many times, the king!" If he can't be the son of the world, I can't justifiably add guards for him! He needs people, he needs more people! "

"Bodhi is too young." Frustrated Meng Xun saw that Queen Meng's expression didn't look like a fake, and couldn't help but wipe his face, "I won't live long, if I can live a few more years, I will definitely make Bodhi the son. But Mu Jian is different, he is old enough, he has a son, he runs Jiuquan and Dunhuang very well, he has the heart to be left and right, and he can maintain Beiliang under the persecution of Wei."

"I don't listen to you." Queen Meng showed her usual impatience in front of Meng Xun." You have set up, and you have promised me that only my son will ascend to the throne. When you asked for marriage, you promised me that if you broke this oath, you would ruin your country and your family."

Frustrated, Meng Xun choked suddenly.

"You short-sighted woman! I don't set up Bodhi as the son of the world to protect him! Bodhi will eventually become the King of Liang, after Mu Jian has attracted attacks from all sides for him! Now that you have formed an alliance with the Wei State, you are seeking the skin of the tiger! "

What is there to seek the skin of a tiger?

I've been living with tigers for over 30 years.

Queen Meng sneered in her heart.

"I didn't form an alliance with Wei, and Wei ignored me."

Queen Meng said casually: "I just don't want to see my eldest daughter-in-law go on like this anymore, I dream every night that my son cries with me, saying that I didn't take good care of her. I'm going to send the Big Li Clan away, don't you mind?"

Everyone in the palace knew that Fuqu Mengxun had an affair with Da Li, and at this time, Queen Meng talked about Fuqu Zhengde, and Fuqu Mengxun's face was not so calm, and when she mentioned Da Li again, the color was even redder.

This matter is indeed his fault.

In front of his wife, who has been with him for decades, he almost ran away.

"陛xià......"

Frustrated Meng Xun's henchman lowered his voice and leaned over.

"Meng Yulong went to find Mulan, I don't know what to talk about......"

"Is there a way to figure it out?"

Frustrated Meng Xun frowned: "Li Shun said that the Zheng Zong who was bought by him, as well as Lu Shuihu's Gai Wu, sent someone to contact him."

"This ...... Mulan barely leaves the embassy."

The henchman's face was full of embarrassment.

"Zheng Zong is his translator, and he never leaves. It was easy for Gai Wu, who was busy in the city every day to contact the old headquarters of the former Tiantai Army......"

"Then find Gai Wu first. Find out what Wei promised the queen."

"Yes!"

"Hahaha, now we will definitely get a reward when we return home!" Several envoys of Wei feasted in the embassy to celebrate the submission of the king of Beiliang, which was a major event for Wei, and the letter of request for the canonization of the prince had been sent to Pingcheng, and the letters written by He Mulan and others also went to Pingcheng along with the documents.

If there is no problem with the agreement made by Queen Meng, maybe Wei can really take Liang without blood.

"Speaking of which, Queen Meng is also very powerful, the women in the deep palace can actually mobilize the palace guards." Yuan Poqiang sighed, "This time I caught them off guard, but it is impossible for the frustrated Muqian to give in like this. Queen Meng began to tear her face, and Bei Liang really wanted to live and die for the storage position......"

"It's better to mess up a little bit." Liu Zhen smiled, "The problem of the Beiliang royal family has existed since the death of Fuqu Zhengde. The country was weak at the beginning of the founding of the country, so he needed to unite all the forces that could help him, but Beiliang is now a behemoth, and the forces that once helped him have also begun to slowly ask for the part promised at the beginning."

"The officials of the Jiuquan faction and the officials of the Dunhuang faction are all big clans from Xichuan, and the faction of Queen Meng represents all the Hao chieftain tribes who raised troops to help him at the beginning of the founding of the Northern Liang country, and Buddhism has been helping to pacify the people, educate the foreign races, so that the people are patient and do not resist, and the original Longxi clan and the Han scholars in the Hexi area hope that the Northern Liang can embark on the road of Sinicization of governance, plus the remnants and officials of Xiliang and Nanliang, if the frustrated Qu Mengxun does not fulfill his original promise, something will happen sooner or later."

"I've contacted my father's old ministry." Yuan Poqiang said lightly: "They are willing to fulfill the covenant of the previous year, if we attack Liang, they will come to us and provide us with supplies near Guzang."

In a place like Beiliang, what I am most afraid of is that the supply cannot keep up, Tuoba Tao loves to use cavalry, and the long-distance attack is for the degree, and then if you can't get the local supply, you will be in danger.

Hearing Yuan Poqiang's promise, everyone was more like a shot in the arm.

"Is what General Yuan said serious?" He Mullan was also curious, "It's been so many years, he.[,!] Are you still willing to help you?"

"My ancestors made a blood oath with them, as long as the blood of the bald family continues to die, they will attack and defend each other." Yuan Poqiang chuckled, "I'm not dead yet, of course they have to keep the contract."

"Anyway, drink this cup to the fullest!"

A group of officials smiled and raised the cups in their hands, "Unify the Central Plains for Great Wei!" "

Everyone laughed and laughed, and the entire embassy laughed and laughed, not afraid that the people of Beiliang would be unhappy when they heard it.

He Mulan was actually afraid of such a reception, but in this game, she did stand firm and helped Queen Meng make a good move. Maybe Queen Meng has been waiting for this blow for many years, maybe Queen Meng will regret it or relenting tomorrow, but what does it matter......

Whoever is in power depends on the Wei State.

He Mulan, who had no psychological pressure, returned to the house after being full of wine and food, and was about to go to bed, when he opened the door, Zheng Zong was sitting in the room, and he was touching the quilt on her bed with a lewd face.

He Mulan's hairs stood up all of a sudden, and he scolded loudly: "You goods, why did you run to my ......?"

When Zheng Zong saw her open her mouth to scream, he immediately waved his hand desperately, and covered his face again and gestured.

As soon as Hermulan saw him like this, he knew that something must have happened, and asked him in a low voice, "What's wrong?" How did you get into my room?"

Zheng Zong approached He Mulan's side, and it was almost nose to nose when he was close, so he said softly: "King Liang sent someone to find me just now, and there is someone in this embassy who is King Liang's eyeliner."

It's not surprising at all, they are in the embassy of Liangguo, and naturally there are people from Liangguo everywhere.

"The man promised me ten catties of gold, and asked me what conditions Meng Yulong had promised the general when he came to find the general." Zheng Zong looked a little excited and said, "I said I don't know, I want to inquire, he said that if I have news, I will go to the dining room to find him, it should be the person in the dining room."

After saying that, Zheng Zong's eyes lit up with excitement.

"It's ten pounds of gold! General, we can make money again! "

He Mulan looked at Zheng Zong amusedly, "So you came to my room early to report the news?"

"No one saw me when I came, but there were many people here when you were there. I'll come in first after saying hello to Chen Jie, so they won't notice that I'm coming to you for a breath."

Zheng Zong smiled and scratched his head.

"Do you say that King Liang is going to attack Queen Meng? Or are you trying to win us over?"

He can buy Li Shun, and it is natural for him to want to buy General Hua again.

"General, just give the money and you will continue, don't do anything at all, what a cheap deal!"

Zheng Zong simply took Frustrated Qu Mengxun for a fool.

"Just sue him for a little bit of foolishness."

He Mulan also didn't expect that Frustrated Qu Mengxun would find Zheng Zong, and it may not be so easy to come to "Infernal Affairs" again, because Frustrated Qu Mengxun is not as conceited as Li Shun.

While she was talking, Hermulan's door rang again, and she walked over to open the door to see that Chen Jie, who was supposed to be on duty today, stood outside.

"What's wrong?"

He Mulan looked outside, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.

"Do you want a decanting soup? I see you drank a lot at night."

Chen Jie stared into He Mulan's eyes and said.

Chen Jie followed He Mulan for a long time, naturally knew that He Mullan's wine was not shallow, this wine was nothing at all, and as soon as she heard it, she knew that Chen Jie was afraid of conveying some news to her, so she nodded.

"It's a little dizzy."

After a while, the decanting soup was brought into He Mulan's room, Chen Jie put down the decanting soup, and secretly said in He Mulan's ear: "Gai Wu has returned, and the people of Fuqu Mujian have looked for him, and they want to know what benefits the Meng family has given to let the general help him."

After speaking, I didn't delay, took the tray and left.

Both of them were inquiring about the bottom line of the envoys of the Wei State, and Zheng Zong looked at He Mulan nervously, not knowing how she should respond.

Honestly, no one will believe it if they haven't formed an alliance yet.

But what conditions do you want to say, it is nothing more than a promise that Bodhi will abdicate and give way to Liang after he ascends the throne.

As soon as this kind of remark is revealed, it is a betrayal of teammates, and if you are frustrated, Meng Xun may directly kill your relatives.

"What should I do?"

Zheng Zong looked at He Mullan.

"Do you want the money?"

This amused Hermulan.

"Do you still remember the money?"

"Didn't you say that the general was poor?"

Zheng Zong glanced at He Mulan's smile embarrassedly.

"Don't rush over there yet, let's wait for news from the Meng family."

He Mullan said calmly.

"Since the Meng family has shown us their sincerity, there must be a backhand."

As He Mulan said, the Meng family was even more anxious about their attitude than the Wei state.

Every day, people come to Hemulan to learn martial arts, and the next morning another military general visits, but this time, this military general is not asking for "competition", but hopes to let the Tiger Ben Army and Gu Zang's Iron Guard Battalion compete, to see the ability of the two sides to arrange troops.

Most of Gu Zang's forbidden army are the children of the Meng family as generals, even if they are not the Meng family, they are inextricably linked, He Mulan knows that it is Meng Yulong who wants to see her on a formal occasion, as long as He Mulan agrees to the invitation, it is equivalent to telling everyone that Wei has supported the Meng family.

Queen Meng has done what she has to do, and now she is looking for the envoys of Wei to ask for support.

"Go, why not?"

Yuan Poqiang's eyes lit up and said, "Tie Guard. [,！ The battalion is the most elite unit of Fuqu Mengxun, even if it is not to meet the Meng family, it is necessary to find out the strength of Beiliang. Don't forget what His Majesty said when he asked us to send an envoy to Beiliang, he hopes that we can find out the truth of Beiliang, isn't this the best opportunity?"

"The sword has no eyes, if something really happens......"

"Who will hurt General Hua!"

"The two armies are not fighting in the streets!"

A group of people echoed the source of Poqiang.

When Hermulan saw that all the envoys had agreed to go to the Iron Guard, he replied that he would visit tomorrow.

The next day, He Mullan led the Tiger Army to the Iron Guard Camp.

The Iron Guard Battalion was stationed south of Guzang, and the news that He Mulan led the army out of the city to the Iron Guard Camp of course could not hide the news from the Beiliang people.

But smashing things can't prevent He Mulan and the Meng family from contacting, so the two armies under the stage are lively, but Meng Yulong and He Mulan on the stage are harmonious.

"Frustrated and married, you don't worry at all?"

Meng Yulong said with a smile, "He definitely won't give up."

"He didn't dare." He Mulan said coldly, "If he doesn't hold his tail now, His Majesty will detain him as a 'guest' in Pingcheng for a while."

"General Hua is so courageous!"

Meng Yulong arched his hand.

"Where, the queen is the good spirit."

He Mullan replied to him casually.

"That day, the general said that it would depend on what kind of course we could do, and now we are still satisfied?" Meng Yulong knew that the initiative was not in his hands, so he lowered his posture.

"Very satisfied, indeed." He Mulan didn't embarrass him, "What do you want us to do next?"

"Next, Dunhuang will be opposed."

Meng Yulong looked at He Mulan with a smile, "The king sent people to provide disaster relief, but it was too late to go, and Dunhuang had been famine for a long time. The official he sent to Dunhuang was Suo Yuanxu, the former Dunhuang Taishou, who had many old friends in Dunhuang, and would definitely collude with the local clans.

"Are you sure that Dunhuang will rebel?"

He Mullan looked at him in amazement. Maybe it won't make a fuss?"

"Frustrated by Muqian and Da Li's adultery, the news will soon spread to Dunhuang. The three princesses are quite respected among the remnants of Xiliang, and even if there is no famine, they will make trouble. Not to mention that now Fuqu Muqian and the three princesses are in Beijing."

Meng Yulong said yes.

"If they don't make trouble, we have a way to make them make trouble."

As for what the method is, naturally He Mulan is too lazy to ask and doesn't have to ask.

"Are you trying to cut off the back road of Fuqu Mujian?"

He Mulan thought about it and understood.

"Yes, the mob is in turmoil, and it is normal to kill some officials and rob some big households......"

"Actually, what I'm most worried about is that Buddhism will also follow the disaster relief." Meng Yulong looked at He Mulan and said, "In fact, there are many people in the Buddhist sect who support His Royal Highness Bodhi, but the Buddhist sect in Beiliang is huge, and most of the people in Dunhuang support Fuqu Muqian, because he gives the Buddhist sect a lot of convenience over there......"

He Mulan didn't speak, just looked at Meng Yulong and continued: "After we got in touch with the Buddhism, they said that they could not interfere in our fight for the position of the prince, but they wanted to see you in private."

"See me?"

He Mullan was taken aback.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"After Master Tan Wuyu defected because of the frustration of Muqian, Buddhism also had a lot of controversy over whether to continue to support him, and Bodhi changed his name to show goodwill to Buddhism. In Beiliang, many things that the king can't do, as long as the masters of Buddhism say a word, someone will do it well, so we also have to compromise with Buddhism in many ways."

Meng Yulong looked at He Mulan apologetically.

"I don't know why they have to see you, but their support is important to us. General Hua, the most important thing now is to weaken the strength of Fuqu Muqian......"

"Anyway, it's just a meeting, and if you can, the Buddha will send someone to the embassy to meet you."
