Chapter 40 Respective Deployments
The eldest prince was assassinated three times in one night, and the entire palace was greatly moved. As for the assassination, all the things were blocked, and what followed was the comprehensive suppression of the second prince by the eldest prince.
"Tell the eldest prince that in the king's palace, from the chief eunuch to the palace maid and eunuch, all have been replaced by our people. The officers who had been in charge of protecting the palace by the second prince's men were also replaced. The entire Dragon Guard in the palace is under our control. Marquis Wu also increased the number of iron cavalry from 3,000 to 5,000 iron cavalry, and fully controlled all the turmoil in the national capital. A young general reported.
"How's it going outside the city?" asked Mullin.
"Outside the city, General Xiao's Hulin Army has also increased from 20,000 to 30,000, and it can be combined at any time. β
"Frontier fortresses, various territories, is there any news?" Frontier fortresses, various territories, are also important strategic places in the entire struggle for the throne.
"All on alert. β
"Good. "Since Mu Di has attacked himself, he can only attack in an all-round way. For the position of the monarch, Mu Tian naturally wants to sit down, and he must sit steadily.
The attack of the great prince was not only swift, but also very efficient, and preparations were completed from the national capital to various places in just a few days.
In the second prince's mansion, a lot of people gathered at this time, and everyone talked to each other, all of them looking extremely anxious with gray faces.
"Second prince, why is there a sudden change in the national capital?" Fu Jun, the former commander of the Dragon Guard.
"It seems that the eldest prince can't sit still and wants to sit on the throne quickly. "The assassination of the eldest prince has not been heard from Mudi. After all, the eldest prince is completely blocked, so naturally he will not leak the news. Besides, is this 'assassination' really committed by the second prince?
"Second prince, the Hulin Army outside the city has also increased its manpower. "The general in charge of guarding outside the city, Lin Han said. Lin Han is responsible for guarding outside the city and patrolling the city, but there are only more than 1,000 people.
"Second prince, our rice shop has also been squeezed. β
"My silk village has also been often investigated by officials in the past few days, and they have been maliciously destroyed on the grounds that they have been investigated. As a result, many customers are lost. β

For a time, some rich people who were engaged in business complained one after another.
"Everyone said yes, but you are willing to listen to me. Mu Di remained silent, and as for the actions of the eldest prince, Mu Di was not surprised. Sooner or later, this day will come, but it has been much earlier according to Mudi's calculations. Why did Mu Tian make an early move this time? Mu Di couldn't guess.
Although the eldest prince likes force, he has cultivated many people. From the day he became the eldest prince, he wanted to take over the throne smoothly. For so many years, he has not moved, and secretly has been preparing for a long time. As for why this sudden and early offensive was launched, it was caused by three 'assassinations', and the assassination really moved the killing intent of the eldest prince. This kind of serial assassination is directly aimed at killing oneself.
The second prince said a word, and the rich man and the general all quieted down.
"If there is less trading, you can do it again. If there is less manpower, it can be increased. As for the loss of rights, can't you take it back?" Mu Tian has preparations, could it be that Mu Di has wasted time in vain all these years?
"I have gathered you here today to remember. We are grasshoppers on the same rope, and if you are good, you will be better. If I die, you won't survive. Raising troops for a thousand days is a while, and since everyone has begun to attack, we can't sit idly by. Next, I will let you know what is arranged. As for your concerns, swallow them all into my stomach. Those who achieve great things will not yield to small sections. β
"The second prince has already made arrangements, and I am relieved. The boss of Mi Xing said with a smile.
"I'm relieved. A lot of people echoed the response.
"Alright, let's get back!" Mu Di stood up, not even looking at the men.
"Yes. These responses were answered, and they all left the second prince's mansion.
"Second Prince, Qiao Feng and the others have already gone to the study to wait. A servant said.
"Hmm. "The people who were in the council hall before were only small characters, and they had little to do with this action. As for Qiao Feng and others, they are the key figures in the entire battle.
"I've kept you waiting. The second prince entered the study and greeted directly.
"Second Prince" Qiao Feng and others respectfully returned the salute.
"Everyone, I think you know what is going on?" The people sitting here are all people of status, how can they not know what has happened in the capital in the past few days?
"Second prince, why did the eldest prince suddenly act in a big way this time?" Qiao Feng also secretly sent people to investigate, but he couldn't get results.
"It may be that the eldest brother is not used to living in his own mansion and wants to change places. Although Mu Di's words were a joke, they also let others know that Mu Di was also unclear about Mu Tian's actions.
"Second prince, what do you need to do next?" An old man, his identity is known to many people, but few people have seen him. He has a great identity, because he is the great elder of the 'Wuyu Gate', Han Zimo. There are two top sects in the country, one is the 'Wuyu Gate' and the other is the 'Linghai Pavilion'. These two factions secretly support one side each. 'Wu Yu Gate' supports the second prince, and 'Linghai Pavilion' supports the eldest prince.
"What is Elder Han's opinion?" To Han Zimo, Mu Di was very polite.
"It's okay for Han to fight and kill, but as for the arrangements, Han is helpless. "Han Zimo is not modest, his strength is absolutely convincing, but he is not good at arranging tasks.
"Elder Han is too modest, Elder Han's strength, who can be the enemy in the snowy region?"
"Elder Han has a lot of affairs, so I'll make other arrangements for such trivial matters. Mu Di first asked Han Zimo, showing respect for Han Zimo. He also knew that Han Zimo would not arrange various tasks, these were just words.
"President Qiao, you are thoughtful, and you will arrange this deployment. "Qiao Feng has worked hard in the business world for many years, and he can have today's status, how many corpses did he step on. In business, strategy is particularly important. Mu Di was full of confidence in Qiao Feng's strategy.
"The second prince has promoted Qiao. How can Qiao Mou be virtuous?" Qiao Feng responded politely.
"President Joe, don't shirk. Mu Di said.
"President Qiao, the two princes have recommended you, why should you shirk it again. Han Zimo still has some understanding of Qiao Feng's ability.
"The second prince has a special identity, and the people of the eldest prince will also secretly monitor during this time. Everyone recommends Qiao, and Qiao will be the one to do. I have full authority to arrange this operation, and I hope you will support Qiao's mission. "When Qiao Feng came to the Second Prince's Mansion, he already had a comprehensive calculation in his heart.
"President Qiao, there are no outsiders here, what are your plans?" Mu Di wanted to hear Qiao Feng's plan.
"First of all, I will let some people mix into the national capital, and they will come in as rice shops, silk merchants, etc., including the various transactions of our Chamber of Commerce. Secondly, the secret camp outside the city needs to quickly transfer weapons and cooperate with the personnel mixed in the cityγγγγγγ "Qiao Feng has a beginning and an end, and arranges the entire plan in an orderly manner."
"Good. President Joe planned carefully, and we executed according to President Joe's plan. After listening to this, Mu Di couldn't help but admire Qiao Feng's ability.
"We do everything according to the arrangement. Han Zimo was the first to echo.
Others followed suit.
The meeting dispersed, Mu Di left Qiao Feng alone, and he only said: "Do it boldly, don't worry." β
"Yes. β
