Jianwei waited for Song to choose to leave, and for the princes, this was a happy event worth celebrating.
In the eyes of the princes from all walks of life, now the dynasty is withering, the first emperor died, the eldest prince died on the battlefield, the queen mother also died early, and the entire palace is only a few princesses who have not yet married, and there is a little emperor who has never been favored and fainted on the altar as soon as he ascended the throne.
In such an empire, what is there to be worthy of the allegiance of their princes, it is clear that the day of a change of dynasty is not far off.
In a palace in the post house, the Marquis of Mo Family Pingxiang sat at the head of the throne, and the children of the Mo family's staff sat at the small dining table on both sides.
"Song Xue is gone, our Mo family has one less strong competitor, congratulations to Marquis Mo." One of the staff members raised his glass respectfully.
"It's stupid to think that this Song Xue is stupid, the Western Territory was defeated, and he even brought 8,000 troops to the court, isn't this obviously an excuse for the emperor." Another staff member scoffed.
The rest of the staff chimed in.
"Song Xue may not really allocate 800,000 troops to Wu Anping when he goes back, according to his humble opinion, he will definitely delay the news of the end of the court meeting."
"Sending 800,000 troops to the emperor in vain, Song Xue is stupid and doesn't have such great courage."
Listening to the discussion below, Mo Yang smiled silently, Song Xue is the weakest one among their major princes, and he is not to be afraid, but on the other hand, it is a pity that he does not have the opportunity to win over Song Ze.
But he didn't expect that the emperor was really a lion with a big mouth, and he asked for more than half of Song Ze's troops at once, I don't know if the emperor really had that appetite or naively thought that Song Ze would obediently send 800,000 troops.
"The boy congratulates his father on his early success." At this time, a young man stood on one side, wearing a blue brocade robe, with a handsome face, smiling and toasting.
Mo Yang came back to his senses, looked at him, and said with slightly narrowed eyes, "Quan'er congratulates him like this, do you hope to rebel for your father?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately quieted down, and the man's face changed and he hurriedly said, "The child doesn't dare, just hope"
Seeing this scene, a young man of the same age not far away stood up and said with a smile, "I hope my father will forgive me, the eldest brother is upright and bold, and he is quick to speak, he also hopes that his father can go to the next level, and the child also hopes that his father can stand out among the princes from all walks of life and become the pillar of the Nine Shadows." ”
"Yes, that's what the kid thinks." Mo Quan immediately echoed and smiled.
Mo Yang's face softened a little, and said, "That's it, your mind is understood by your father, but when the great cause is not accomplished, it is better not to be ashamed, if it is listened to by outsiders, I am afraid that my father will not be able to protect you." ”
"Remember, child!" Mo Quan and Mo Yuan bowed and replied.
Mo Quan was reprimanded by Mo Yang speechlessly, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, glanced at the purple-robed figure who had been silent in the distance, bowed down and said, "Even the third brother can be admitted to the top prize, and the talents of these nine shadows are still the most in our Mo family, and the other princes are just rats." ”
Mo Yang's brows furrowed slightly, his face was calm, but he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, this Mo is his eldest son, but he is so open-mouthed, and his hurtful words are so direct, he can't observe words and expressions, and he can't use it
didn't care, Mo Yang's gaze turned to the purple-robed figure in the distance, who had been silent-Mo Shu.
Mo Shu has been studying poetry and books since he was a child, and now he has come to the capital to take the examination, but he didn't think that he really gave the Mo family a face, won the champion, and now he has the right to discuss with everyone.
In Mo Yang's heart, he is not optimistic about this Mo Shu, he has been low-key and taciturn since he was a child, has a good temper, never argues with others, among his three children, Mo Shu is the child born to one of his concubines, and he is inferior in the family, and Mo Yang does not regard him too important.
Now that he has been admitted to the top prize, he will serve the court in the future, and he will have something to do in the future, at least he can contribute to his Mo family.
Mo Shu, who was sitting in the farthest distance, was sarcastic by his eldest brother's clever words, sneered in his heart, and said with a faint smile on his face, "It is just a coincidence that the child can be admitted to the top prize, and the child also hopes that his father can take advantage in this court meeting and become a great cause as soon as possible." ”
Mo Yang nodded with a smile and said, "Shu'er has been admitted to the top prize, and it will definitely become a big help for my father in the future, and I hope Shu'er will not live up to my expectations." ”
"Yes!" Mo Shu bowed and replied
The banquet dispersed, and in the evening, Mo Yang sat in the room and looked at the military book.
Knock knock.
"Come in." There was a knock on the door, and Mo Yang said indifferently.
The door opened, Mo Yang glanced at the figure who came in, put down the book and said, "It's so late, what is the matter with Shu'er looking for a father?" ”
Mo Shu closed the door, turned around and replied respectfully, "The child is extremely worried, so he came to disturb his father." ”
"Worried? What to worry about? Mo Yang raised his eyebrows.
"The child has seen the current emperor before he came to the capital to take the test." Mo Shu pondered for a moment and replied, "In the opinion of a child, Liu Xuan may not be as weak and incompetent as rumored, and in this court meeting, my father must not be careless." ”
"Oh?" Mo Yang's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Mo Shu's complexion, the emperor who can be evaluated by Mo Shu is not an incompetent person, but there is something special about it, Mo Shu is his child, temperament and even heart, he knows best, although he does not want to see Mo Shu on the surface, but he still has some praise for Mo Shu in his heart.
After thinking about it, Mo Yang said, "In Shu'er's opinion, among the princes from all walks of life now, Liu Xuanruo is really not weak and incompetent, who should be the first to be attacked?" ”
Now the purpose of the princes is very simple, the dynasty is withering, this court meeting is the first step of the finality of the Nine Shadows, and it is also a key step, if you take a wrong step, there may be no day to turn over.
Since Mo Shu said such words, then he had to be cautious, after all, he was careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.
"The child thinks that among the princes of all walks of life, if Liu Xuan really wants to do something to the princes of all walks of life, the first to shoot should be the foreign prince Liu Yuan." Mo Shu hesitated for a moment and replied respectfully.
Mo Yang nodded approvingly, Mo Shu's thoughts were the same as his, this foreign prince Liu Yuan has always been domineering, and he has long since stopped taking the dynasty in his eyes on the surface, and now he is still taking 30,000 soldiers and horses to participate in the court meeting, if Liu Xuan doesn't make a move on him, it is really Mo Yang who looks down on him.
"Tomorrow, you can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion with me." Mo Yang looked at Mo Shudao with a smile.
Mo Shu was slightly stunned, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "This is also one of the reasons why the child came to find his father, tomorrow until the end of the court meeting, I hope that my father will not go to the prime minister Li De." ”
As soon as these words came out, Mo Yang's brows furrowed
