Chapter 29 A two-pronged approach

"Have you heard? The ministers of the court want to force your imperial brother to depose Luo Xue from his official position. ”

Su Muyi has no cronies in Daqin, and there are few ways to know the news. She still listened to Xia Ziyan's side concubine about Qiu Luoxue, and after hearing about it, she immediately went to Xia Ziyan to inquire about the news, after all, Qiu Luoxue was her only friend in Daqin.

"I also heard about it, and I was planning to enter the palace to see the situation." Xia Ziyan said.

"Okay, okay, let's go and take a look, it is estimated that the palace is also a mess now." Su Muyi said that after all, she is the princess of Nanliang, and she has some understanding of things in the court.

Now the relationship between Su Muyi and Xia Ziyan is much more harmonious, more like partners who have been working together for a long time, and there is a lot of tacit understanding. Although the two are not really husband and wife, the relationship is much better than before. The change in their relationship came after Su Muyi learned about Xia Ziyan's thoughts. Since then, Su Muyi's feelings for Xia Ziyan have become more distressed.

"You go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to see Luo Xue, if this happens, she should feel very uncomfortable." Xia Ziyan arranged.

"You don't mean I'm going to go." Su Muyi said, "Don't worry, I'll persuade her well." ”

After a brief exchange, the Yan Wang couple set off separately. Xia Ziyan went to the palace, and Su Muyi went to the prime minister's mansion.

As soon as the matter of the boycott came out, the people of the capital were talking about it, and the streets and alleys were talking about it. The Prime Minister's Mansion was very calm, and the people worked as usual and did not discuss this matter. They are all subordinates who have been in the prime minister's mansion for many years, and they generally don't talk about the affairs of their masters, and they also believe that their masters will be fine. After all, the Qiu clan has been favored by the royal family for generations, and they will not fall all at once.

Su Muyi, under the leadership of the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion, walked towards the courtyard of Qiu Luoxue. Seeing that everything is as good as ever in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I feel a lot more relieved. At least if you stay in a good environment in autumn, you will be in a much better mood, and you will see a lot of things when you are in a better mood.

Passing by the pond in the garden, Su Muyi saw that the summer lotus had bloomed, and the pink lotus flowers were even more coquettish against the backdrop of the lotus leaves. The golden sunlight shining on the water reveals that it was a good day.

When you enter the autumn snowy yard, you will be greeted by the fragrance of magnolia flowers, which are in full bloom season, and the white petals are playing in the sun. Qiu Luoxue sat alone on the verandah of the courtyard, facing the magnolia tree in the courtyard, not knowing what she was thinking.

No matter what she was thinking, she was very engrossed, because when Su Muyi came to her side, she didn't react at all.

"Has she always been like this?" Su Muyi asked Allure Road.

Allure looked at Qiu Luoxue worriedly, and replied, "It's been like this since I came back from the palace, and I haven't moved." ”

"Princess Niangniang, you have a good relationship with your son, persuade her, it's really worrying to be like this all the time." Allure said to Su Muyi in a pleading tone.

Su Muyi had come to persuade Qiu Luoxue, so she agreed to Allure's request and said, "You go down first, I'll try." ”

Allure saluted and left. Su Muyi stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Qiu Luoxue's eyes, and asked, "What do you want?" So attentive, I didn't even know that this princess was coming. ”

Su Muyi's voice successfully woke up Qiu Luoxue, she glanced at Su Muyi lightly, and then turned her gaze back to the magnolia flower, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Su Muyi and Qiu Luoxue sat side by side on the verandah, they sat together, and they were even more beautiful than the blooming magnolia flowers. The sun shone on their faces, lining their originally fair skin a little rosy.

"I'm coming to play with you, I've been bored lately." Su Muyi said.

"With so many concubines from Xia Ziyan accompanying you, you are still bored?" Qiu Luoxue said, her voice was very soft, she looked weak, and her concentration was not very concentrated.

Seeing that the autumn snow is so dull, she is not at all the same as her usual cheerfulness. Su Muyi could only find a way to tease her, and said, "They have been honest recently, maybe they are scared of me." ”

Thinking of Su Muyi's methods, Qiu Luoxue showed a smile on her face and said, "Indeed, Princess Mu's methods of rectifying people are really unbearable for ordinary people. Is it that the women of Nanliang are so domineering. ”

Seeing a hint of a smile on Qiu Luoxue's face, Su Muyi was relieved and said, "If you have the opportunity to go to Nanliangbei with me, just take a look." ”

"Okay, anyway, I'll be free right away, and I have nothing to do, so let's go to Nanliang to have a look." Qiu Luoxue said.

Hearing her say the word "leisurely", Su Muyi knew that she was still thinking about the ministers' request to remove her from her official position, and comforted her: "Don't think about it, the emperor will definitely not remove you from your official position." ”

"That's the problem. The best thing he could do now was to remove me from office, but she didn't want to do that. Qiu Luoxue said, "It's clear that I've been cornered by others, but I still want to protect me, that's the biggest problem." ”

When she said this, Qiu Luoxue had tears in her eyes, her vision was piled up with tears, and she couldn't see the outside world clearly. Su Muyi looked at such autumn snow and felt a little distressed. He took her hand and said, "Don't do this, there will always be a solution." Xia Ziyan has already entered the palace to discuss countermeasures with the emperor, and they will definitely have a way. ”

"Brother Huang, Jiang Shilian and the others don't seem to have any intention of giving in, and it seems that they want to be in a stalemate with you all the time. Things are a little tricky. Xia Ziyan and Xia Zimo were talking.

For the sake of that position, Jiang Shilian will definitely not give up easily. Others, however, are not. Xia Zimo said.

"What is the Imperial Brother going to do?" Xia Ziyan asked.

"How about I give you an official seat to sit in?" Xia Zimo looked at Xia Ziyan and asked, there seemed to be a mystery in his words.

Xia Ziyan also knew that his words were by no means casual, and asked, "Does the imperial brother want to ......?"

"The ministers of the court and the central government have some interests, and there are many people who embezzle public funds and seek personal gains. It's just that I haven't shaken to the foundation before, and I don't bother to care about them. But now......" Xia Zimo said and paused, a sharp light flashed in his eyes, and then said, "Since they want to go against me, I don't plan to let them go." ”

Xia Zimo didn't shout at the ministers from the front, nor did he pay attention to them, but attacked from the side, poking at their most painful point. Most of the ministers kneeling in front of the palace gate were King Chen's minions, and as long as they investigated carefully, their weaknesses could not be investigated. As long as there is a little clue, they can threaten them, and when the time comes, they will naturally choose the most powerful path. If there are really some people who want to be hard steel with Xia Zimo, then they can only be wiped out.

Xia Zimo directly poked at the deepest interests of the ministers, and Jiang Guifei did it to the relatives of the ministers in the harem. The concubines in the harem, without the emperor's favor, will never be able to deal with Concubine Jiang Guifei, so they have become lambs to the slaughter.

"Someone reported that Concubine De had hidden forbidden objects, and the matter is serious, and this palace must investigate it in detail. Come and copy the palace. Jiang Guifei said in Concubine De's palace, and as soon as her words fell, a group of palace maids and eunuchs began to rummage inside.

Jiang Guifei is arrogant and looks at everything, but Concubine De Niangniang is angry and dare not speak. She knew that the concubine was not checking the contraband, but demonstrating. But she couldn't say anything, after all, his father was fighting against the emperor, and the emperor would not help her at this time. There are several concubines in the palace who have received this kind of treatment like her, and they dare not resist the same.

Jiang Guifei's role is not limited to this, but more importantly, it provokes the relationship between Jiang Shilian and other ministers. Everyone knows that Concubine Jiang is Jiang Shilian's daughter, and everyone will inevitably have some opinions about Jiang Shilian. On the one hand, he led everyone to oppose the emperor, but her daughter was in the harem with other relatives of theirs, what is this called.

"Master Jiang, what do you mean by this?" That night, a minister found Jiang Shilian, and it seemed that he had received a letter from a relative in the palace.

"Master Zheng, this headless and brainless, this official really doesn't know what you're talking about?" Jiang Shilian said.

"Hmph......" Lord Zheng snorted coldly and said, "What do you mean by letting us go with you to advise, but secretly instructing you that the daughter of the concubine in the palace oppresses me?!" ”

Jiang Shilian quickly understood, knowing that this was the chaos on Jiang Guifei Island, and quickly explained: "Lord Zheng misunderstood, I didn't instruct her. She is now a concubine in the palace, how can I move her? ”

"Even if she becomes a queen in the future, isn't she also your daughter? When you were in the palace today, the two of you went to the side to talk, and this was what was premeditated, it seems that you were afraid that someone else would rob you of the queen's position, so you did it on purpose. Master Zheng said.

"Lord Zheng, where is this?" Jiang Shilian said.

Master Zheng was also a violent temper, and he didn't want to listen to Jiang Shilian's explanation at all, and said, "I don't care." My little daughter wrote to me today, saying that she was placed under house arrest by Concubine Jiang and tortured. You'd better let your good daughter out right away, otherwise, don't blame me Zheng for being rude. After saying that, Master Zheng left in a huff.

Jiang Shilian knew that he was yin by Jiang Guifei, so he was angry and scolded: "Rebel girl." ”

In addition to the matter of the harem, there was also a little bit that shook Jiang Shilian's camp. That is, Xia Zimo sent Xia Ziyan as a clean government official to thoroughly investigate the collusion between the ministers of the DPRK and China and the corruption for profit. There have been similar moves before, but they have been covert investigations. Xia Zimo's public announcement this time was also an oppressive force, forcing the people in Jiang Shilian's camp to return to the court and breaking off the idea of deposing Qiu Luoxue.

Xia Ziyan is the prince of Great Qin, and he was ordered by the emperor, he went out to do things, and no one dared to stop him. The speed of the investigation is much faster than usual.
