In the evening, the setting sun shines through the ink-like sky, reflecting a soft light with a hazy and illusory feeling. Mu Qing was dressed in single clothes, barefoot, and sat curled up in front of the windowsill. She looked quietly into the distance, countless fluctuations flashed under her eyes, but finally dissolved into formlessness. Although she maintained the usual calmness on her face, no matter how well she disguised herself, the two dark blue circles on her fair face still revealed her restlessness at the moment, which was particularly abrupt. Today is too important for her, she has been preparing and planning this game of chess for so long, this step can be described as a crucial step, whether the road ahead can continue, and how to go on, the answer is in today's Showa Palace.

Suddenly, feeling the appearance of the dogwood behind him, Mu Qing spoke lightly, and there was a faint apprehension hidden in his calm tone. "How's it going?"

"It's done!" Zhu Yu replied simply, with a smile on her face.

Mu Qing's originally stiff body was obviously loosened, and his eyes were closed, as if he was trying his best to adjust his internal breath. Seeing this, Zhu Yu hurriedly stepped forward to check, but was stopped by Mu Qing's very quiet voice. "I'm fine, I've finally gotten through this hurdle."

Zhu Yu said happily: "Yes, although it is a dangerous move, but Niangniang also won the beauty." The emperor has lifted the ban on King Rui. ”

Mu Qing's expression did not move, his cheeks were a little rosy, and he said coldly: "What about Feng Weiran?" ”

Zhu Yu replied: "That dog official confessed on the spot in the Showa Palace, and now he has been imprisoned in the heavenly prison, waiting for the emperor's fate." Even if you don't die, you can't escape exile. Tang's father and daughter finally got revenge. ”

Mu Qing's fingers gently brushed the wisps of green silk, and there was a faint fragrance of coolness from his fingertips, and his eyes were clear. During the palace banquet last month, she sent someone to sneak into the classic pavilion in the palace, in addition to stealing the manuscript of the historical records compiled by her brother back then, she also brought out another thing, that is, "Wujing General Essentials". There is a page in particular that records the detailed process of how the ancients separated copper and iron, she tore it off, and pressed this "ironclad evidence" on Feng Weirin's body through the hand of Yue Xuan, the squire of the military department. Feng Weirin is a thief with a weak heart, once he has this breakthrough, no matter how hard his mouth is, he will inevitably reveal something.

However, Feng Weirin is Emperor Liang Yinhao's confidant after all, and he is a key to the military department and the control of the troops. Therefore, in order to prevent Liang Yinhao from secretly letting Feng Weirin go, and in order to completely destroy the unhealthy tendencies within the military department, it is necessary to point out Feng Weirin's crimes in public in front of all civil and military officials, only in this way can Liang Yinhao not move him Feng Weirin.

And in this palace, the only one who can break into the Showa Hall and question the emperor is the queen mother. Therefore, Mu Qing deliberately arranged for Tang Feng's daughter Tang Yuji to blend into the Queen Mother's side as a palace maid, and the Queen Mother was already protective of her son, and after hearing Tang Yuji's statement, she would definitely take Tang Yuji directly to the Showa Hall and confront Feng Weirin in person, so as to ensure that King Rui could clear his name and get out.

Zhu Yu interrupted Mu Qing's scattered thoughts, and said happily: "At first, the slave was worried that Lord Yue Xuanyue would refuse to help us, but I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. ”

Mu Qing smiled absently, with a touching light in his beautiful eyes. "I've never been worried about Yue Xuan. He is a man of great affection and righteousness, and he is also a young man who understands righteousness and ambition and ideals, but he is trapped in the fog of this 'officialdom' for a while and loses his way, and he can return to the right path with a little guidance. As long as Uncle Yin does what I say, understands reason, and moves with emotion, he will definitely make the right choice. In the future, when he sits in the position of the secretary of the military department, he will also be a good official for the well-being of the people. ”

Zhu Yu frowned puzzled: "Although there is no Feng Weirin in the Ministry of War, there are other officials, how can Niang Niang be sure that the emperor will definitely choose Lord Yue to be the secretary of the Ministry of War?" ”

Mu Qing sneered, his proud and calm eyes were like icebergs and snow, making people shudder. "Because he couldn't have a better choice!"

Zhu Yu couldn't understand the deep meaning of Mu Qing's words, but she didn't study it in detail. She knew that this master had always had a thinking that was different from ordinary people, and his foresight had repeatedly made her admire. Zhu Yu changed the topic and said: "There is one more thing, Niangniang really did not expect to be wrong, that Tong Yuan and Huo Pei'an really created a so-called record of goods at the port of Beijing, pointing to King Rui's intention to rebel." But in the end, because of Feng Weilin's confession, this perjury was naturally self-defeating. ”

"I believe that this perjury alone is enough for Wei Ming and Huo Pei'an to pinch each other for a while." Mu Qing laughed heartlessly, "However, Liang Yinhao has lost a military department book now, and the Ministry of Rites has just stabilized, he won't be stupid enough to move the criminal department at this time, let alone Huo Pei'an." ”

Zhu Yu said sympathetically: "Anyway, it is only a matter of time before the Criminal Department changes hands, so let Tong Yuan warm up the position of the Secretary of the Criminal Department first." ”

Mu Qingliu raised his eyebrows, looked at the girl beside him in surprise, and said, "Where did you get so many strange words?" I've been in the palace for a long time, and I'm good at this mouthful! Or did you have too much contact with that Qiu Feng and were damaged by him? ”

Zhu Yu stomped her foot unconvinced, and hurriedly said, "What did Niang Niang say?" Qiu Gang Master's poisonous mouth, the slave and maid admit that they are ashamed. Besides, how many times has the slave and maid only met the Qiu gang master? What you should be worried about is Taowu, she will be ruined by him when she follows the Qiu gang leader all day. ”

Mu Qing put away his playful smile, and his light and breezy look climbed between his eyebrows again. "People like Tong Yuan, who are greedy for life and afraid of death, are the best to deal with and take advantage of. I'll keep him for now, and I'll have a place for him in the future. As for Tang Yuji, it's up to you to arrange it, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Qiu Feng once, remember to be careful! ”

"Don't worry, the slave will arrange it." Zhu Yu nodded his head and said, "However, although King Rui has proved his innocence, the emperor is afraid that he will issue an order tomorrow to let King Rui return to the fiefdom." Niangniang, do you want to go to the Qinzheng Hall now? ”

Mu Qing turned his head again to look at the beautiful autumn colors outside the window, and his eyes revealed a bit of elusive trance, as if covered with a faint layer of mist, hazy. "Under the pressure of many parties, Liang Yinhao has not been idle these days, and it is not appropriate for me to come forward to add fuel to the fire at this time. Besides, as long as the Queen Mother is there, King Rui can't leave for a while, and if he is too anxious, it is easy to do bad things and arouse the suspicion of others, so let's be patient and wait..."
