Chapter 209: The Emperor's Scheme
At the same time as breakfast, Su Qingdu told Mu Yueqing all his conjectures, and Mu Yueqing always felt a little unsafe when talking about this kind of thing at the dinner table. Although the subordinates have retreated, and there are only two of them in the house, there is no age for such a thing as a wall having ears.
Mu Yueqing was eating while thinking about what Su Qingdu had just said, he felt that the emperor would not pass on the throne to Su Jianfeng, even if he handed everything over to Shu Jianfeng now.
At the beginning, Leng Yue used a plan to harm Su Jianfeng and was deposed as the crown prince, but it was exposed in the assassination of Su Jingyun, so as long as the emperor can understand Leng Yue's intentions, he will naturally be able to understand that Su Jianfeng was framed by Leng Yue.
And the reason why Shu Jingyun was assassinated is unknown, it is impossible for him to really change the successor, if he is killed again, then the throne can really only be passed to Shu Jianfeng.
As Su Qingdu said, as long as General Zhao Ziye is still alive, it will be impossible for the emperor to pass the throne to Su Jianfeng.
Now in the court, there must be chaos, and many ministers have made friends with the princes, but fortunately, their status is higher than that of others after they ascend to the throne. The resignation of Su Jianfeng made some of the people who originally took refuge in him turn to the sixth prince Su Jingyun.
Not only the people who dreamed of Jianfeng, but even the ministers who originally took refuge in several other princes also switched to Shujingyun. Because Su Jingyun is deeply valued by the emperor, ascending to the throne is already just around the corner. But who would have thought that at such a critical time, Shu Jingyun was still assassinated and killed under heavy protection, and Su Jianfeng, who had no way to live, returned to power.
Which prince to take refuge in was originally a gamble, and this turmoil made these wall grasses suddenly feel that they were going to lose.
According to the careful eye of the sword wind, he will definitely not let go of these people who are loyal to him and abandon him, so there will inevitably be a bloody storm in the court.
Thinking of this, Mu Yueqing had no intention of going to the main hall to see the excitement. The sword style and the light decision have always been incompatible, and there has always been only an excuse to get rid of the light decision. Even if he still didn't catch the handle of the long-awaited decision this time, it doesn't mean that the sword wind won't be framed.
When he returned to power, he must be vindictive.
Mu Yueqing's concern for Su Qingdu, he is naturally very useful, but he is not worried.
While eating, the guards came in again to report, and Su Jianfeng eliminated one-third of the ministers in the court who did not follow him, including Mu Yueqing's grandfather Mu Cheng. However, he was afraid that Mu Cheng would rebel, so he was temporarily placed under house arrest in the general's mansion.
At this moment, Mu Yueqing can't sit idly by, if Su Jianfeng takes away Mu Cheng's military power, even if Su Zichen is on the throne, I'm afraid he won't easily return the military power, this time Zhao Ziye's incident has already taught them enough lessons.
Seeing Mu Yueqing's worried face, she comforted her lightly: "Grandfather will be fine, don't worry, the emperor will not agree." ”
As soon as she said this, Mu Yueqing was relieved. The emperor forced a Zhao Ziye to rebel, how could he force the only remaining general to rebel again.
"The emperor is borrowing the hand of the sword wind to get rid of those disloyal people in the court, but the sword wind may not be all under his control." Mu Yueqing said worriedly.
If it had been before, I am afraid that Su Jianfeng would have been ecstatic, maybe he would be in a good mood, but he would not care about these people.
But judging from the guards' reports, Shu Jianfeng seems to be doubling his revenge, and even Mu Cheng is probably implicated because of Mu Yueqing's relationship, and what he does is even more like a madman.
What a madman will do, he will not think rationally at all, and he will not take into account the consequences, this is what Mu Yueqing is most worried about.
Now that Su Qingdu can think of it, the emperor is using the sword wind to clean up the court and the new emperor's shield, so what if the sword wind also thinks of it?
Mu Yueqing sighed secretly, no wonder she decided to say that the emperor was a dangerous move, this kind of treatment, for the current situation, it can indeed cut through the chaos quickly, but it also has a great risk. Once the sword wind gets out of control, the emperor's plan will be lost.
But once it succeeds, this court will really be in the hands of the new emperor, so the emperor has to take this risk.
Putting down the chopsticks, he comforted and comforted: "If you don't worry, let's go and have a look, we don't have to show up in person, we just watch outside." ”
Mu Yueqing was indeed relieved, nodded, and got up.
As soon as the two of them stood up, another guard hurriedly ran in. Looking at his face, Su Qingdu and Mu Yueqing knew that something worse was happening.
"Your Highness, there is news in the palace that General Zhao Ziye committed suicide." The guards didn't have time to catch their breath and immediately told the news.
Hearing this, Mu Yueqing suddenly turned to look at Su Qingdu, with a shocked face.
And Su Qingdu's face suddenly became gloomy, he thought the same as Mu Yueqing, Zhao Ziye was the emperor's lifeblood to control the sword wind, once Zhao Ziye died, the sword wind completely escaped from the emperor's control.
"What's going on?" Su said lightly and coldly. He knew that the emperor should be more careful than him, and he would not allow such an accident to occur at this juncture, even if Zhao Ziye wanted to commit suicide, it would not be an easy task.
"Back to His Highness, General Zhao Ziye inserted chopsticks into his head from his eyes." The guard replied truthfully.
Mu Yueqing was also embarrassed, the general of the Beiwu generation died so tragically in her later years, but now she has no time to sigh others, if she is left alone now, the imperial power will fall into the hands of Su Jianfeng.
"What's the emperor's movement?" Mu Yueqing asked.
"The news of the emperor's general, General Zhao Ziye's suicide, has been concealed, but I'm afraid that the family has gotten the news." The guard replied.
In other words, it is already an unavoidable fact that Su Jianfeng broke away from the emperor's control and took power. If Shu Jianfeng is allowed to regain real power, then the next person he will deal with must be Su Qingduan and her, and she and Su Qingduan can no longer sit still.
"What are the Hidden Families doing?" After a moment's thought, he asked.
The hermit family must be the one who guards the throne and the next heir, so if the hermit family follows this person now, who will be the one who will ascend to the great treasure in the future.
The guards hesitated a little, but replied, "The shadow guards are all missing, and they can't be found in the palace." ”
Su frowned lightly, even his people didn't even find out the whereabouts of the shadow guard, and it seemed that the emperor was out of his control.
The bad news came one after another, and even Mu Yueqing noticed that the long-awaited decision was different from the seriousness of the past.
"What should I do?" Although Mu Yueqing was asking for a quick decision, she had already made up her mind to visit the palace at night.
"I will call the forces of the Dark Demon Palace to investigate." Su Qingzhi still said coldly.
