Chapter 52: A Game of Chess That Must Be Lost

Mu Qing said in a deep voice: "This matter, King Rui seems to have the upper hand now, but if it is not handled properly, it will lead to fire." ”

Qiu Feng suddenly understood the deep meaning of Mu Qing's words, "Are you worried that those ministers will unite to sue Liang Yinhao and deal with King Rui together?" ”

"Yes, it is better to provoke villains than to offend the wrath of the public. So I want you to find a way to infiltrate the Rui Wangfu in the past two days and remind Liang Yinhuan. Remember to tell him to handle things properly and not generally. It is necessary to arrest a group, release a group, sentence a group heavily, and spare a group lightly, so that those officials will not be able to understand the routines and laws of his handling of affairs, and so that those officials will be suspicious of each other, so that they will not be able to gather into a force. Then it would be much easier for him to dismantle them one by one. ”

Qiu Feng nodded knowingly, "I understand what to say." ”

"Your method is indeed effective against those princes and ministers, but it is difficult to guarantee that Huo Pei'an will not get in the way? If he goes to the emperor to chew two sentences of tongue, it is difficult to guarantee that Liang Yinhao will not listen to slander. ”

"I've never been worried about that." Mu Qing's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, falling a layer of heavy shadows, and his eyes were like two dark and deep ancient wells, bottomless. "Huo Pei'an will definitely make a hindrance from it, and Liang Yinhao will definitely listen to slander, no matter what method I think, King Rui will not be able to complete this matter in the end."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Don't admit that you're stupid!" Qiu Feng laughed weirdly, "Then what did Liang Yinhao have in mind when he asked King Rui to be in charge of this household deficit case?" Do you really think he believes in the strength of King Rui? Everyone knows that this is a thankless errand, and he Liang Yinhao knows it even more, he just saw that King Rui could not complete this matter smoothly, so he deliberately threw this hot coals into King Rui's hands! ”

Cheng Zijun only felt that the anger that had been suppressed rushed straight to his head again, and he pointed at Qiu Feng and said angrily: "How do you speak?!" ”

Mu Qing saw that the two were about to quarrel again, and immediately opened his mouth to change the topic. "Liang Yinhao entrusted this matter to King Rui at the beginning, just because he was ready to see his success and failure, so that he could borrow a knife to kill people, govern King Rui's crime of incompetence, and completely suppress and crush King Rui's arrogance."

Cheng Zijunzai looked at Mu Qing carefully a few times, and his originally surprised expression quickly became solemn. "Since you already knew that Liang Yinhao didn't have a good heart, since this is an errand that can't be pleased, why did you go to great lengths to promote this in the first place?"

"Because in this game of chess, we are not for nothing, the key is to see which side is more inclined between losing and losing." Mu Qing lowered his eyes slightly, and his eyes without the slightest smile were filled with a trace of extremely deep ruthlessness.

Cheng Zijun looked at Mu Qing as if she didn't understand, and remembered what Mu Qing said last time, 'King Rui will have to build his wings sooner or later', but she thought about it carefully: If King Rui offends everyone this time, and is destined to be accused of 'incompetence' by Liang Yinhao in the end, then where will his wings come from? But Cheng Zijun still didn't express the doubts in her heart in the end, because she believed that with Mu Qing's intelligence and prudence, she must have been sure to dare to take this step. Cheng Zijun saw that Mu Qing looked tired, and he couldn't bear to bother any more, so he got up and said, "It's not too early, then I won't bother you, and you should rest early if you are not in good health." ”

"Good. Although my sister is now deeply liked by the Queen Mother, after all, the heart of the palace is unpredictable, and my sister must be careful in everything. ”

"I understand." Cheng Zijun deliberately squinted at Qiu Feng on the side again, and said coldly, "Some people don't be ignorant, after all, this is the forbidden courtyard of the palace, if anyone finds out, although your life is worthless, don't worry about the smoke." ”

"Hey! Do you think I'm willing to come to this ghostly place? If it weren't for Mu Qing's sake, I wouldn't have come if you begged me to come! Qiu Feng raised his head arrogantly, "I also advise you, your trick of smearing poison on a silver needle is okay to bluff children, if you really meet a master of the rivers and lakes, it will be boring to ask for yourself!" ”

"Why is your mouth so bad!" Cheng Zijun took a deep breath, and he didn't want to quarrel with him, "Forget it, for Yan'er's sake, I don't care about you." ”

After speaking, Cheng Zijun snorted coldly, turned around and left Chenzhi Palace. The room was quiet again, Mu Qing was not in a hurry to speak, and the cold smell in the air went straight to his head, making the memory in his brain clearer and deeper.

Mu Qing rubbed his sore head, and said with a smile: "How can you say that you are the leader of the Yilingshan Gang, what are you arguing with a girl's family?" ”

"I didn't think she was funny, so I deliberately teased her!" The corners of Qiu Feng's mouth raised an uninhibited smile, "She is Cheng Ao's daughter?" ”

Mu Qing nodded silently, not wanting to follow the meaning of Qiu Feng's words, but instead pulled the topic back to the deficit case. "The official scandals you collected for King Rui, although they seem to be quite effective now, there will always be some guys who don't know what to do and who want to hit the south wall, and then you will release the big news that we originally held in our hands, so that King Rui will be thoughtful for a while."

"I understand, I'll find an opportunity to get the news out." Qiu Feng replied, and after a moment, he showed a sneer, "But it's really interesting to talk about this court, almost all of the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, large and small, have more or less hidden secrets, and my Lingshan Gang has found out a lot of them just a little bit of investigation." ”

Mu Qing couldn't help but smile, but his smile was extremely desolate and sad. "It's not surprising. The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, and even as the monarch, he has a huge unjust case in his hands, not to mention the official below. Therefore, the atmosphere in the DPRK and China is not right, and Huo Pei'an cannot be blamed for all of them, among them, there is also Liang Yinhao's connivance and weakness. That's why what you and I are planning is so urgent. ”

"You haven't sued her yet?"

Qiu Feng suddenly changed the topic, but Mu Qing clearly knew the deep meaning of his words, what he was referring to was that she deliberately concealed Cheng Zijun's own physical condition. She never told Cheng Zijun the fact that she had a Sanli Gu in her body, and she deliberately concealed it because she didn't want Cheng Zijun to worry too much. Sanli Gu is an extremely rare and weird Gu poison, the initial symptoms of the Gu person are not obvious, it looks like an ordinary deficiency cold disease, so she can hide it from Cheng Zijun for a while for the time being. Mu Qing said tiredly: "The only people who know about Sanli Gu are you and Zhu Yu. ”

Looking at Mu Qingqiang's calm face, Qiu Feng only felt a pain in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I see her attitude towards you, she seems to care about you very much, and you can't hide this matter." ”
