Chu Cangming nodded, frowned, and took out a letter from his waist, which was all about the things that Hexi officials paid tribute to Lin Xiang back then, and a few days ago he raided the prince's mansion, and most of them were among them.

"There was a famine in Hexi, tens of thousands of people were homeless, and the court allocated not much silver, but I didn't expect the prince to swallow most of it secretly." Lin Xiang's handwriting, the prince's instructions, the two of them have been seamlessly staged in the court for so many years, if they didn't do it, Chu Cangming would not have thought that they would be so obscene.

Ning Hao sighed, the begonia flowers outside the door had already bloomed, and the camellia seemed to be about to bloom, he thought carefully about the use of the imperial court over the years, and the household department should be the clearest.

Chu Cangming can be deceived as the head of the household, so will the emperor just be deceived by the prince's disguise?

"Did Your Majesty ever know?"

"Your Majesty naturally knows, the case of Hexi, Yang Gonggong is also involved, the one who tried Lin Xiang and Yang Gonggong at night is His Majesty, the prince may not be given up, Ning Lord Chu said so much, not seeking fame and fortune, but asking for an explanation to the people of Hexi."

In addition to the emperor's accident, he knelt down to his parents, today he didn't have to care about decency, knelt down towards Ning Hao, he used to think that His Majesty was a Ming Jun, but today it seems that the emperor who is good at using power and skills, how can there be no greed in his heart.

"That kid doesn't have a trace of hope to win," Ning Hao heard the layout in front of him, his heart was already cold, and he himself didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for Xue Muyan to go to the palace to find relatives.

Chu Cangming couldn't kneel for a long time, Ning Hao knelt down with him when he saw this, both of them had tears in their eyes, once upon a time they had guarded the world for the emperor together, and now they did this again to let the emperor hand over the power in his hands.

"Your Majesty can't control the hearts of the people of the world," the emperor once said that he had already set up an edict in order to control the crown prince, and if the prince was not virtuous, then he would appoint someone else as the emperor, so Xue Muyan still had a chance.

How could Ning Hao not know that the edict had already injected the prince's name into it, and it was extremely difficult to change it at this time, so they planned here, and Xue Muyan called a group of his secret guards into the palace after a long absence.

Outside the city

"Your Royal Highness, the current crown prince is greedy, and the people of the world will suffer when he ascends to the throne." As the person next to Xue Muyan, he had already seen a few unhappy people in the palace, showing off his might every day, but in fact they were all empty shelves.

Xue Muyan didn't speak, he was watching the good news on the frontier, and several countries next door had been frantically stationing troops since they knew that the emperor was critically ill.

He was worried that the day of the emperor's death would be the time for them to do it, and the ministers in the court who were in the middle of the court were not prepared at all, and it was difficult to mobilize the generals and soldiers and horses everywhere.

"Let me ask you, about the frontier, has General Zhang ever written to His Majesty?"

The man recalled the correspondence between the Japanese army in the past few days, and shook his head certainly, Xue Muyan knew that something was about to happen, and hurriedly took the people to the border.

As soon as he came out of Yizhuang, he was stopped by General Zhang's wife, she was pregnant with Liujia should not have appeared here, but the scimitar in her hand looked really dazzling.

"Madame, what are you here for?"

"I'll tell you good news, that is, my husband has sent a message that the border matter has been transmitted to the emperor, so you don't have to take it to heart."

The secret guards all muttered in their hearts, obviously the news everywhere had been checked by them, and the letters from the palace had noticed the extreme, how could they let it out.

"Madame won't be here to tell me this!"

Xue Muyan had long heard that General Zhang's wife was not allowed to shave her eyebrows, and when she saw it, she realized that it was the woman who was talking to Xiaowan that day, she did not have rouge gouache on her face, and her hands seemed to be a little rough, and the size of the scimitar was very suitable for holding in her hand.

Madame had never been interested in the person in front of her, and after sending her belly, she planned to leave.

"Thank you, madam!" When Xue Muyan saluted her, the other party didn't even look at her, and left directly, her back image was very good for Lu Xiaowan.

The sound behind them also came out, as well as the secret guards over there and the general who came back from the border with a face full of disbelief, they all thought that General Zhang's family was a tigress, but they didn't expect it to be a beautiful woman who captivated the country and the city.

"General Zhang never said that his wife was so beautiful!"

"The general also killed the enemy on the battlefield, but he didn't expect to fall back like this after becoming another woman." The woman's lonely and capable back also shows that she has not lived a very good life over the years.

Xue Muyan didn't understand the words, and thought that General Zhang treated her badly, and after getting up, she asked him about Mrs. Zhang back then, which was the reason, thinking of Lu Xiaowan's unknown eyes when she left, she had a bottom in her heart.

"With General Zhang's help, our border is stable, but I don't know if we will lose our military power this time." Several of them who came back from the frontier were still very suspicious of Zhang Muyan's intentions, after all, he had always done things for His Majesty, and now he was on the verge of defection, which was very strange.

There are a lot of people offended by the prince in Beijing, and Xue Muyan secretly found out that according to what Lu Xiaowan said, it is really not enough to rely on a few pawns at present.

"I have to know the Shangshu and the squire of the six departments, these people want money and food in their hands, and if they can make them return to their hearts, they don't have to worry about the great cause." Collect the hearts of the people and put the prince in the air in a special way, Xue Muyan has already thought of a way, but it is difficult to do it because of the Ning Mansion.

What's more, the emperor asked him to accompany him into the palace every day, and did not give him the opportunity to meet the ministers at all, but the crown prince had the opportunity to supervise the country, and I heard that the treasury was also handed over to him.

"But as far as I know, the Shangshu of the six parts were all personally selected by His Majesty, and they are very obedient and can't be moved."

Leaving his eyes and thinking in his heart about who could be used in the six Shangshu, Xue Muyan found that he lacked a real strategist, at least someone who could put the relationship away.

"And the way of the six departments is very peculiar, it has always crossed Shangshu Province and directly returned to His Majesty, and there is also a chief eunuch in the palace, should we secretly move all these people first?"

Xue Muyan sat on the coffin, feeling that something was not right, and when he jumped down, he remembered Yang Gonggong's words, and secretly let himself go to the prince's mansion to visit the prince.

"Don't do it yet, if you can do it in this position, I don't think they will be any easier!"

As soon as these words came out, those generals also had a headache, it was okay to let them go in and out of the battlefield, but it was a headache in the face of the courtiers, especially when those people didn't have a good thing.

"Otherwise, you will still discuss it with Mr. Ning, although it is for the sake of Concubine Ning, it is still your foreign family, and you will always use it in the future."

The plan can be done but not said, even if many people look at it, they can't see what chess the Ning family is playing, and Xue Muyan has no intention of moving.

"In the middle of the night, find a way to tie up the commander of the Yulin Army, do it cleanly, and you will use whatever means Lin Xiang has used recently." There are also those Shangshu's sons who can be used, but they are a little squeamish.

A few ruffian-like dark guards had smiles on their faces, took the wine hanging on their bodies, and seemed to be ready to do it, and then I am afraid that the capital will not be peaceful at all.

Xue Muyan's arrangement at this time complemented Lu Xiaowan's, the only difference was the location, he couldn't have imagined that Lu Xiaowan would go up the mountain in his spare time.

"Big brother, if nothing else, you have the most pleasure in drinking here." Lu Xiaowan took the wine and began to drink, and she didn't hide the silver, and threw a few thousand taels of silver tickets to let her subordinates go down the mountain to buy meat.

The king of the mountain has seen a lot of formations, but he doesn't know what Lu Xiaowan wants to do, the surprise on his face is covered by a snorting smile, the second master sat aside and didn't dare to move, he had a little guess in his heart, after all, Qingyang County knew that Lu Xiaowan and Qingfeng Lou didn't deal with each other, and he received a lot of benefits from his eldest brother.

"Miss Lu, you are bold, I will naturally not be bad." After speaking, he drank a large pot of wine, glanced at his second child, the look of the rat eyebrows and thief eyes, and knew that he had done nothing good.

Lu Xiao and I were not polite, and ordered someone to send a letter, which was written that the brothers could have a place to live, and no one has done this business now.

"You mean let's build roads?" How can there be a reason for bandits to build roads, since ancient times, where there are roads, where there are bandits, if you start a serious business, wouldn't you tell the brothers of other cottages that they have been recruited.

She has already thought of a complete strategy, and now the location of the cottage is mostly excellent, since ancient times, there have been merchants passing by, and there is nothing wrong with collecting some money to keep people safe.

"Big brother, listen to me, although it seems that he was recruited, but the brothers' rations are guaranteed, if you keep going on, pin your head to the waistband of your pants every day, you see who is willing!"

It is very faceless for Zhao'an to spread this kind of thing, not to mention that the government does not give any conditions, it is unrealistic for him to rush to the government to confront the government.

"No, what do you want other cottagers to think of us."

"Big brother, you see that there are a total of three villages on this road in Qinbei and Jiangnan, and the mountain roads in each place are extremely difficult to walk, in the long run, Qinbei's business used to be difficult, and Jiangnan's business was unrealistic."

Originally, it sounded a little interesting, and the boss in the cottage also thought about blocking the road and collecting some money when he was young, but the merchants liked to fool his brothers.

"Don't, look at how wise my brethren are."

Lu Xiaowan took a look at it, and a few of them were a little naïve, when she drank, she knew that she was desperately pouring wine, and she knew that she couldn't rely on just a few cottages.

"I will teach the children of the village to read and write, regardless of men and women, but if they learn to send money and issue tickets!"
