Chapter 34: Foresight

Su Chonghua has never appeared, I don't know if it was because Zhuangyuan Xun failed to hand over the secret decree to him smoothly, or if he deliberately did not send troops to slow down. Anyway, I don't dare to bet the lives of myself and all the people who followed me to the top of the Ghost King on him again.

If Su Chonghua does not send troops to slow down the ghost king's top is willing to use the ghost king's knife to remove me, then what he is most afraid of at this time is that I will return to the palace smoothly, there is no imperial city outside the Tianyuguo Palace, and the princes and ministers' mansions are mostly adjacent to the people's courtyards. This situation invisibly left the Tianyu Palace with another defense. If you let Manager Xu take the Imperial Forest Army to the top of the Ghost King to pick up the driver, he will definitely not be able to hide Su Chonghua's eyes, and then he will jump over the wall in a hurry and set up an ambush along the way, and even directly force the palace with a large army, I will have no way to live.

I once gave Mu Yu half of the secret guards, that is, one hundred and eight secret guards, and before I found out why Su Chonghua didn't send troops to slow down the battle of the ghost king, I couldn't even fully believe it.

Then now the only people I can trust in the entire palace are my father, Chief Xu, Mu Yu and the secret guard. If I let my father and Mr. Xu save me, they will definitely use the Imperial Forest Army, but I have no way of knowing how many other people in the Imperial Forest Army have planted eyeliner. There are only the secret guards, who are personally selected and cultivated by the golden-faced masters, who know almost all of my secrets but will not betray me.

So I asked people to sneak back to the East Palace quietly, and found Mu Yu with the jade pendant that was exactly the same as Mu Yu, so that she would not alarm anyone in the palace, including Chief Manager Xu and Zhuang Yuan, and send fifty secret guards to pick me up outside the city.

I also ordered Su Chonghua to go to the military camp in the north of the city to order troops, and then go to the top of the ghost king to carry grain and grass treasures. took the opportunity to send Su Chonghua out of the capital. In order to prevent Su Chonghua from becoming suspicious or disobeying the decree, I made people in the capital to publicize the fact that the ghost king was full of grain and grass, and the gold and silver were full of mountains, so that he mistakenly thought that I had been immersed in the matter of the ghost king's victory. He also ordered Qin Shangshu of the military department to serve as the supervisor of this mission, and the princes and ministers went to the city gate at noon two days later to pick up the driver, and said that I would personally command the army to put grain at the city gate. So that Su Chonghua thinks that I have always been at the top of the ghost king.

At this time, the news of the victory of the ghost king is to publicly tell the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the capital of Baixing, and I am in the ghost king. The Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces will definitely put all their attention on the matter of Su Chonghua going to the Ghost King to carry grain and grass treasures. With so many people staring at it, and Qin Shangshu supervising it, I don't have to worry about Su Chonghua not being able to return to the army. This secret guard going out of the city was difficult for even Chief Xu and the Imperial Forest Army to notice, not to mention that he was already in the military camp in the north of the city.

As long as he doesn't know that I returned to the palace early, he won't ambush along the way. But when he arrived at the top of the ghost king, he had an army in his hands, and I only had the remnants of the wounded generals and a Qin Shangshu who had the title of the secretary of the military department in vain, but there was no soldier, if he wanted to kill me, the opportunity was good and easy, and then he would find an excuse to say that my killing was an accident or the remnants of the ghost king's top, and then force Qin Shangshu to return to his camp, otherwise even Qin Shangshu would be removed together, and he would no longer have any worries.

In fact, at the same time that the secret guards set off from the imperial city, Mo Qian had already sent someone to escort me and the golden-faced master, Xiao Ye, Qing Yu, and Qin Ruoan from the Ghost King Peak, and the two sides met outside the city. At this time, Su Chonghua had just arrived at the military camp in the north of the city.

After returning to the palace, I will be able to find out the truth that Su Chonghua did not go to the Ghost King's Summit. If it is proved that Su Chonghua received a secret order and deliberately did not send troops, as long as he went to the top of the ghost king, Mo Qian had his own way to let Su Chonghua, the ghost king, and his party go and never return, and then the dragons in the army would be leaderless, and the crime of killing General Chonghua would be borne by the ghost king, and the officers and soldiers in the army would naturally not think that this was a trap designed by me, but I could easily take the military power back into my own hands.

Even if Su Chonghua knew that I had returned to the palace and rebelled, General Yang, the guard of the capital, would be able to deal with it for a while, and Mo Qian would be able to send someone to help. In addition, Su Chonghua did not have food and grass in his hands at this time, even if there were many people, it would be difficult to become a climate.

But if the problem lies before Su Chonghua, it can prove that Su Chonghua has no second thoughts, and all my precautions and strategies are just unfounded, but they can prove Su Chonghua's innocence, and everyone is happy. And I only said before that I would let him order troops and transport food, but I didn't say that I would take him over, and he wouldn't see me in person when he arrived at the top of the Ghost King, and he wouldn't think much about it. At that time, let Mo Qian hand over the food and property to him and bring it back, and I will personally go to the city gate to preside over the release of grain, and naturally the whole world will celebrate.

After saying this plan, I suddenly realized that I still have so many eyes. Wrong! This is called thoughtfulness and foresight!

The key to this plan is speed! If it weren't for the fact that I and Master Jinmiao, Qing Yu, Xiao Ye, and Qin Ruoan were all seriously injured, we would have returned to the palace as soon as possible. Although it will take time for Su Chonghua to rush to the military camp in the north of the city and order the troops, if he really has a ghost in his heart and learns that I am still alive, he will definitely march to the ghost king to destroy my mouth, in case the night is long and dreamy. If I move a little slower, maybe I'll meet Su Chonghua halfway, which would be worse than him trapping me on the top of the Ghost King.

As for those injured soldiers, for the time being, they will stay at the top of the ghost king to recuperate, and the bandits at the top of the ghost king want to go home or stay and join the army, as they wish. Those cronies of the ghost king who followed the ghost king to do a lot of evil will not be severely punished for the time being, and will stay on the top of the ghost king to do labor first, so as to observe the after-effects.

Everything went well, when I was carried in front of Mu Yu with gauze wrapped all over my body, her tears fell down like beads with broken threads.

"It's all skin trauma, it doesn't matter." I didn't tell Mu Yu that I broke two ribs, otherwise she would have been even sadder.

"You know that your mouth is hard! Even ten fingers are wrapped, can this injury not be serious? Mu Yu fed me the ginseng soup that happened to be in the mouth with a small spoon little by little, and after a long time, she suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, can that Mo Qian be trusted?" Don't Your Highness go out of the top of the ghost king with the front foot, and he will become the next ghost king with the back foot. ”

"Don't worry!" I said, "Early this morning, all of our people were injured and couldn't get up, but the person who was stunned by the sweat medicine on the top of his ghost king had already passed the medicine, and he didn't do anything at that time, which shows that he is credible." ”

"I didn't expect His Highness to win the top of the ghost king with fewer victories, and he also got such a loyal and capable subordinate."

"Of course! Mu Yu, do you know? When I first saw Mo Qian, I thought he was a disciple. And he also has a pair of peach blossom eyes. Have you ever seen peach blossom eyes? It's the kind of eyes with tall tails and a red halo around the eyelids, which is particularly seductive, just like ...... Oh, it's like Hua Dan in the play......"

"Is it pretty?"

"It's actually pretty good! Ha ha...... Hiss! "Joy and sorrow, my whole body hurts when I laugh.

"Slow down, slow down!" My whole body is covered with gauze, Mu Yu doesn't know where I hurt, I am so anxious that I sweat out, but I don't dare to touch me, for fear that this touch will touch my wound.

"It's fine!" I took a deep breath, "When Mo Qian is done with the matter of the Ghost King, I will summon him into the palace, and then you will be able to see him." ”

"You're going to let that flower thief into the palace?" Xiao Ye suddenly slipped into the room through the window, "I don't agree! ”

"Who let you in? Get out! "Xiao Ye and Mo Qian were just knocked out by me last night, so their injuries are fine.

"Lin Muyu, do you have a conscience, you have to eat, drink and be accompanied, I can't even drink hot tea, I'm an injured person who needs to be taken care of."

"Huh?" Mu Yu looked at me with an innocent face, "Your Highness ordered her not to make a noise until she returned to the palace, I had to make some food for His Highness in this palace, and I neglected the night boy, please forgive me!" However, Mr. Xu has already asked people to inform His Royal Highness of the Imperial Dining Room of the news that he has returned, if the night boy does not dislike it, these dim sum soups on the table, the night boy please feel free to eat. ”

"Ignore him, he loves to whine." I didn't plan to tell Mu Yu about my name Lin Muyu, as long as she regarded me as her best friend, knowing too much would be a burden.

"It turns out that he is the old eunuch Xu who is not well arranged?" Xiao Ye immediately understood what I meant, "I'll go to him to settle accounts in a while." ”

"You should settle accounts with him now. Go, go! "No matter how you say it, Mu Yu is also a big girl who has not come out of the cabinet, and it is too undeserved for a big man to break in like this.

"Don't!" Xiao Ye picked up a piece of hibiscus cake casually, tasted it in small bites, and made sure that the Co-Eloquent Si Li took a second bite slowly, "I came to tell you, that Mo Qian, you must not let him enter the palace." ”

"Why?"

"Have you forgotten why the Emperor of the Great Blazing Kingdom offered a reward of 100,000 taels of gold to buy his head? Aren't you afraid that he will let your father's concubines help you add a group of younger brothers and sisters? ”

"He's the best craftsman in the world! Shouldn't he make the best use of his talents and do something for my Tianyuguo? "For example, build a fortification, design some lightweight tools, or something. I can't afford to waste such a good talent.

"He is also the world's first flower picker!"

"The Father's Empress Palace has not accepted newcomers for at least ten years, and those concubines in the palace have also been old and decrepit for many years, Mo Qian shouldn't beat their ideas! And my East Palace is just a few big men, and a bunch of eunuchs, Mo Qian will never go hungry and attack men! ”

"Aren't you a woman?"

"I am his lord!" I'm Mo Qian's master, although I still haven't figured out which master it is.

"He's a flower thief!"

"He's my subordinate!"

……

After the same sentence was repeated countless times, the atmosphere became tense. In the end, I compromised: "In this way, I will arrange Mo Qian to work in the Ministry of Industry." ”

"Your Highness! Prince Xuanyuan is here. Manager Xu pushed the door in and put the food he had just brought from the imperial dining room on the table.

"Shouldn't he be on duty at the palace gate at this hour?" The Tianyuguo Palace is not very grand, but there are four palace gates in the east, west, south and north, Xuanyuan Che is now the chief of the four-rank guard, and he is also the leader of the guard of the south palace gate. When the sun was still high, why did he come back?

At this time, Manager Xu saw Xiao Ye pick up the white porcelain bowl that Mu Yu had just given me to fill the casserole, and just wanted to praise him for being sensible, but saw that he sat down at the table as if no one was around, scooped up a small spoonful of ginseng soup and put it into his mouth. Angry, Mr. Xu stomped his feet and scolded: "Yegongzi is really getting more and more unruly, His Royal Highness spoils you and indulges you, you should learn to cherish your blessings." Rather than being pampered. The miscellaneous family can tolerate you not to take the miscellaneous family in your eyes, but you can't allow you to be presumptuous in front of His Royal Highness! ”

Manager Xu knelt in front of my bed: "Your Highness, the old slave knows that you are benevolent and generous, but this rule is the rule, these sons in the East Palace are just objects for His Highness to enjoy, His Highness wants to pet him, and if he wants to kill, he will kill them, so he must not think about them!" ”

"Didn't care!" I dealt with it casually, glaring at Xiao Ye again, it didn't matter how I played around when there were no outsiders. But in this East Palace, I am the crown prince, he is just one of my male pets, and what he did just now was indeed too much. I pretended to be serious and reprimanded Sayo: "Don't eat it!" I went to the window and thought about it! ”
