"Mother, are you looking for me?" Xuanyuan Mo walked into the palace of the imperial concubine and saw that the imperial concubine was pruning a potted plant, so he stood quietly and waited.

Although she knew that Xuanyuan Mo was next to her, the imperial concubine continued to be busy with the things in her hands as if she hadn't heard his voice, and knew that she was very satisfied with seeing the potted plant in front of her pruned by herself, so she stopped and handed the scissors to the maid on the side, and then returned to her seat.

"Mother, I don't know what you are looking for today?" Xuanyuan Mo saw the imperial concubine's direct gaze, and felt a little strange in his heart, so he took the initiative to ask.

"I heard that a few days ago in the main hall, you joined the general's book, right?" The imperial concubine asked lightly, as if she was asking about the weather, but her eyes looked at Xuanyuan Mo very sharply.

"Yes!" Xuanyuan Mo did not deny it, knowing that this matter would be mentioned by the imperial concubine, it means that she already knows the truth, and there is no need for her to hide it, and Xuanyuan Mo doesn't think there is anything to hide about this matter, anyway, he is sure of Murong He, even if he is deceived this time, it will still be known by the imperial concubine in the future.

Hearing Xuanyuan Mo's blurted out admission, the imperial concubine couldn't help frowning and said, "Why? Why exactly are you targeting the Great General? Aren't you planning to win over the General's Mansion? ”

"What you can't get must be destroyed." Xuanyuan Mo suddenly said fiercely, "Since the general refuses to choose my side, then he has no use value for me. ”

"The general doesn't want to be on your side? Why? Could it be that he has another prince in mind? The imperial concubine asked with some puzzlement.

"The general said that the prince he liked before was the Nine Emperor Princes, and now that the Nine Emperor Princes are gone, he will not stand on either side and remain neutral." Xuanyuan Mo thought of the conversation with Murong He that day, and said with some anger.

"In that case, the general is not a threat to you, so why do you still target him everywhere?" The more the imperial concubine listened, the more confused she became, and she didn't understand what Xuanyuan Mo's purpose was.

"Mother, did someone say something to you?" Xuanyuan Mo saw that the topic of the imperial concubine had been revolving around the General's Mansion, and thought for a while that Li Miaoxin had come to the imperial concubine to say something.

"No, no one has looked for me, it's me who heard about you and the general, so I asked a few more questions." The imperial concubine explained calmly.

Xuanyuan Mo looked at her suspiciously for a while before he spoke: "Erchen knows what the mother wants to say to the son, but there are some things that the minister has his own plans, and I ask the mother to forgive me." ”

Hearing Xuanyuan Mo say this, the imperial concubine glanced at him in some surprise, stood up from the soft couch and walked towards him, and asked in a serious tone: "Then do you know who the general's wife is?" ”

"Yes!" Before the imperial concubine finished speaking, Xuanyuan Mo had already preemptively said: "She is the twin sister of the concubine. Erchen had seen her when he went to the General's Mansion before. ”

"Since you already know my relationship with the Great General's Mansion, why do you want to target the Great General everywhere? If you talk about kinship, you still have to call the general an uncle. The imperial concubine persuaded Xuanyuan Mo, but Xuanyuan Mo was already determined to deal with the General's Mansion, and he couldn't hear the imperial concubine's persuasion at all.

"Mother, even so, that kind of kinship is only applicable to ordinary people, and if the general really cares about this kinship, he will not retreat from my request again and again." Xuanyuan Mo said indignantly: "When Xuanyuan Hao was there before, I can understand that he helped Xuanyuan Hao, after all, Xuanyuan Hao is his son-in-law, but now Xuanyuan Hao is dead, looking at the princes in the palace, I am the closest to him, but what did he do, he didn't take me seriously at all, and he didn't even have the slightest idea of wanting to help me." If he doesn't even think about kinship, why should I care? ”

The imperial concubine didn't expect Xuanyuan Mo to have such a big resentment towards the general in her heart, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and looked at Xuanyuan Mo with some embarrassment.

"I understand the resentment in your heart, but if you bring down the General's Mansion, don't you put my sister in misery, how do you make me face her? After all, she is my own sister, and our blood relationship cannot be severed. ”

"Mother, you have lived in this palace for decades, and the life of the harem is a battlefield for women, I thought that the daily deception had made you ruthless, but I didn't expect you to be so affectionate." Xuanyuan Mo's words couldn't be heard as regret or ridicule, "You can't be a woman's kindness when it comes to big things, if you still hope that I can become the crown prince, you have to put away your compassion." ”

On the one hand, she hoped that Xuanyuan Mo could let go of the general's family, but on the other hand, she felt that Xuanyuan Mo said very much, which made her very conflicted and didn't know how to choose.

"In order to frame the Nine Emperors, even his own younger brother and the Second Prince could be ruthlessly killed, and the queen did not hesitate to sacrifice the Four Princes to protect the Great Prince for her own power, which of them was not ruthless for their own selfish desires." Xuanyuan Mo used the example of Xuanyuan Che and the queen to persuade the imperial concubine.

When the imperial concubine heard Xuanyuan Mo say this, her originally hesitant heart slowly became a little biased.

"You're right." The imperial concubine nodded, although she still had some sisterhood with Li Miaoxin in her heart, but when she thought of her forbearance in the harem over the years, and thought that now the queen has finally lost power, once her son becomes the crown prince and ascends the throne, then she will really raise her eyebrows, and it will be worth it for so many years of forbearance.

Seeing that the imperial concubine finally relieved himself and agreed with him, Xuanyuan Mo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he was worried that the imperial concubine would hinder his plan because of the idea of the woman's benevolence.

Since the imperial concubine agreed not to interfere in the affairs of the General's Mansion, Xuanyuan Mo's activities have become more active and frequent, just after meeting a minister of the court, when he walked out of the restaurant, he saw Murong Xijun passing by, so he deliberately walked over.

"Isn't this the third prince of the Great General's Mansion? Why is the third son alone today, and what about the other two sons? Xuanyuan Mo walked up to Murong Xijun with a smile and asked.

"The Great Prince!" Murong Xijun politely and detached gave Xuanyuan Mo a peace, and he had some resentment against him because of his previous incident with Murong He, so he naturally wouldn't give him a good face when he saw him.

Xuanyuan Mo naturally noticed Murong Xijun's indifference to him, but he didn't care, but said with a hypocritical smile: "General, his old man's body is okay?" ”

"It's not bad, thank you for your concern." Murong Xijun replied coldly, not wanting to stay with Xuanyuan Mo for a while, and said coldly: "I still have something to do, so I will leave first." Without waiting for Xuanyuan Mo's response, Murong Xijun left by himself, not noticing the grim smile on Xuanyuan Mo's face after he left.

"I asked you to find someone to keep an eye on the General's Mansion recently, how are you staring?" Xuanyuan Mo asked the henchmen on the side in a low voice, his eyes always looking in the direction where Murong Xijun left.

"Recently, the General's Mansion has been very quiet, and there is nothing unusual." The henchman stepped forward and whispered in Xuanyuan Mo's ear, "The three sons in the mansion stay in the mansion almost every day. ”

"Staying in the house every day?" Xuanyuan Mo sneered, and said with some displeasure: "So what happened to Murong Xijun just now?" Is it because I'm hallucinating, or are you simply not doing what I tell you to do? ”

"Don't dare!" The henchman was frightened by Xuanyuan Mo's cruel tone and immediately knelt down, and said with sincere fear: "The third prince of Murong has indeed returned to the house with the other two princes after leaving the court recently, and he never goes out. ”

Xuanyuan Mo glared at his henchman, returned to the mansion unhappily, and saw Chu Wanwan sitting on the edge of the pool feeding the fish, and let the henchman stay before he walked over.

"Why is it here alone?" Xuanyuan Mo asked a little carelessly, glanced at the fish gathered in the water waiting to be fed, and said coldly: "These fish seem to be happier than people, they don't have to worry about anything, naturally someone will feed them." ”

"Is there anything troubled by the third prince?" Chu Wanwan glanced at Xuanyuan Mo, continued to feed the fish in the river, and said seemingly casually: "Although they seem to be happy, their lives are in the hands of people, once no one feeds them, once someone wants to kill them, it is a breeze." So only people are the ones who really control their lives. ”

Xuanyuan Mo looked at Qi Fangfei in some surprise, knowing that what she said was by no means literal, as if she was prompting herself, but Xuanyuan Mo did not ask, but waited for her to take the initiative to say it clearly.

Chu Wanwan sprinkled some of the fish food in his hand into the river water, and saw those fish rushing up to grab the food, before turning to Xuanyuan Mo and saying: "Even if someone feeds them, it is the weak and the strong, you see, some fish compete for more, they eat more, and some fish can't grab other fish, so they can only eat the rest, or even eat nothing." It's the same with people. ”

Xuanyuan Mo pondered for a while, and somewhat understood what Chu Wanwan meant, with an appreciation for her in his eyes, he used to think that women would only depend on men to survive, but he didn't expect Chu Wanwan to still have some brains.

"You didn't come here today to feed the fish, did you?" Xuanyuan Mo suddenly laughed, pulled Chu Wanwan in front of him, hugged her thin waist with one hand and lifted her chin with the other and said, "You are a little qualified to stay by my side now." ”

Listening to Xuanyuan Mo's arrogant words, Chu Wanwan not only didn't feel angry, but felt that such a man was even more fascinating, and said a little proudly: "I still have a lot of secrets that you don't know, as long as you dig slowly, you will find a lot of unexpected me." ”

"Then I'll see." Xuanyuan Mo let go of Chu Wanwan, his expression was dark, his eyes looked at the water again, and he said a little harshly: "In this reality of the jungle, I also snatch all the food, and I want all the people to surrender to me." ”

Such a domineering Xuanyuan Mo made Chu Wanwan even more admired, and put his hand on his chest a little enchantingly and said: "I hope my man is so domineering, I look forward to the day when you make all the people surrender." ”

"I won't keep you waiting." Xuanyuan Mo didn't push Chu Wanwan away, and said thoughtfully: "The first step I have to do now is to deal with the Great General's Mansion. ”

"Then you have the idea of who you're going to deal with first?" Chu Wanwan asked with some curiosity: "The three sons in the General's Mansion are not ordinary men, if you want to deal with them, you must not take them lightly, but they are not so invulnerable. ”

"You seem to have a good idea?" Seeing Chu Wanwan's mysterious look, Xuanyuan Mo asked curiously, "Who do you think is the first person to deal with?" ”

Chu Wanwan thought for a while, and immediately said Murong Xijun's name, seeing Xuanyuan Mo's somewhat puzzled expression, he explained with a smile: "Among the three brothers, only Murong Xijun is the youngest. ”

"Is it because he's so young that you think he's the first person to deal with?" Xuanyuan Mo was a little dissatisfied with Chu Wanwan's answer, so he had also considered that the first person to deal with was Murong Xijun, but it was not because of his age.

"Not for this reason, of course, but because his temper is more irritating than that of his two brothers, and with a little exploitation, he can be stimulated to make him misplaced. Besides, as far as I know, he is the youngest son of the general's wife, and if something happens to him, the entire general's mansion will definitely be shocked and angry, and then it will be the best thing for the rest of the other party. Chu Wanwan said with a straight head, seeing Xuanyuan Mo's expression slowly change from displeasure just now to joy, knowing that his words made him very satisfied, he asked with a smile: "What do you think of my thoughts?" ”

"Same as I thought." Xuanyuan Mo nodded with satisfaction, "Murong Xijun is too annoying, and he was the first person I planned to deal with." ”

"With his fiery personality, it's not hard to deal with him. I know you must have a great idea. Chu Wanwan said with some compliments.

"I do have a plan." Xuanyuan Mo said a little mysteriously: "I'll tell you what the plan is when my plan is successful." ”

"Good!" Chu Wanwan was smart and didn't ask at the bottom of it. When you know that women should be interesting, you have to be smart and play stupid, "I look forward to your good news." ”
