Chapter 187: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots
The little couple stood at the door and blocked the door behind, seeing that Mu Yizuo was not allowed to go, presumably even if Mu Yizuo didn't want to talk, he had to talk with such a person, and Mu Yizuo also felt that it was much better to talk to these two people than to talk to Dingguo Gong or King Xuan.
After all, the Duke of Dingguo and King Xuan are old, and they are Jiangshan Sheji at every turn, so Mu Yizuo can't stand it.
Although Mu Yizuo wants the throne is also selfish, but in the final analysis, Mu Yizuo does not really want this country to be destroyed, this is the history of the Chang Dynasty, Mu Yizuo naturally can't let it be destroyed in his own hands.
At the same time, these two founding fathers also chose Mu Yizuo because they knew that Mu Yizuo was a person who could endure his temperament.
Otherwise, what is Mu Yizuo's forbearance all these years?
When Mu Yichen was expanding his court connections, Mu Yizuo was eating, drinking and having fun, and when Mu Yichen was about to take over the power of the DPRK and China, Mu Yizuo was still eating, drinking and having fun. Even the emperor thinks that the third prince Mu Yizuo can't really be uninterested in this throne, right?
But Mu Yizuo's ingenuity made the emperor want to stop, Mu Yichen is suitable for killing enemies on the battlefield, and Mu Yizuo is suitable for sitting in the palace and keeping the palace prosperous for a hundred years.
These two sons, who they choose or not, give the emperor a headache.
Gu Jinxi and Ruan Cailing came to help the emperor solve problems precisely because they knew the emperor's difficulties, in fact, in the past two years, the emperor has also seen Mu Yizuo's ability, and the emperor's heart has always been Mu Yizuo, and he is afraid that Mu Yichen will have the mind of turbulence in the court when he holds the military power, so he has always been at ease.
I hope that one day Mu Yizuoan can't stand it anymore and will fight with Mu Yichen.
The emperor means that no matter whether Mu Yizuo loses or wins, this country is Mu Yizuo's, and he hopes that Mu Yichen can assist Mu Yizuo as a prince, but it can be seen that Mu Yichen's heart is not the emperor, I am afraid that he will have to do something to this country.
"Since we can speak, it is naturally the emperor's instructions, these words should have been said to the third prince a long time ago, but ......" Ruan Cailing didn't say anything in the middle of her words, and Mu Yizuo himself knew it.
Because of the matter between them, Ruan Cailing has not said anything until now, and it is a coincidence today.
It just so happened that Mu Yizuo came to Yanhua Building to see the excitement, and it happened that Mu Yizuo hadn't left when Gu Jinxi came to find Ruan Cailing, and the two seemed to be reconciled, so Gu Jinxi and Ruan Cailing were able to let down their guard and talk freely with Mu Yizuo.
Mu Yizuo glanced at Ruan Cailing, "What do you mean, it's my father's meaning?" ”
Without waiting for Ruan Cailing to answer, Gu Jinxi said, "Do you remember when you saved a general in the DPRK many years ago?" Although it may not be a big deal for you, but when you investigated thoroughly for him, in fact, the emperor already intended you to be the crown prince and succeed him. ”
If Gu Jinxi hadn't mentioned this matter, Mu Yizuo would probably have really forgotten about it.
After all, it was three or four years ago, when a general in the court was almost exiled because he was framed, but Mu Yizuo firmly believed that General Wei was a good person, so he asked General Wei to investigate this matter thoroughly.
In the end, of course, General Wei was wronged, and the person who framed General Wei was also arrested and beheaded.
However, the emperor's health was fine at that time, and it did not involve the matter of succeeding to the crown prince, although Mu Yichen had begun to have some thoughts, but it was certainly not obvious now, but Mu Yizuo at that time really did not have this kind of thought, or later, the emperor's health gradually deteriorated, Mu Yizuo felt that it was time for himself and his mother to consider it, so he began to exert his strengths.
Back then, the emperor could see that Mu Yizuo was dedicated to the Chang Dynasty.
If it weren't for Mu Yichen's eyesight, the emperor would have announced that Mu Yizuo was the crown prince at that time.
Thinking about it now, it's thanks to the emperor that he didn't announce it, otherwise it is estimated that they wouldn't be able to see such a Mu Yizuo now, Mu Yichen is vicious, no matter who it is, as long as it is someone who stands in his way, he will die, whether it is his own brother or not.
Mu Yichen will not take other people's lives seriously.
At that time, Mu Yizuo did not have such vigilance, and there was no precaution against Mu Yichen, if Mu Yichen made a move, Mu Yizuo would definitely die.
Thanks to the emperor's calmness.
Listening to Gu Jinxi and Ruan Cailing's words, Mu Yizuo was surprised for a moment, but he still said, "You also said, it's useless for my father to want me to be the prince, most of the military power is now in the hands of my ninth brother, even if I can be the prince, I am just the target of the ninth brother." ”
"So, we need to plan well, don't worry, the third prince, we will definitely help you eliminate all difficulties and obstacles." After Ruan Cailing finished speaking, she smiled at Mu Yizuo.
When Lin Yicheng was beheaded, Ruan Cailing and Gu Jinxi were in the carriage, Gu Jinxi opened the curtain and looked, a group of people outside in the dark, and they didn't know what to do with this kind of thing, and they were not too unlucky.
Anyway, if Ruan Cailing hadn't wanted to see who the person sent by Mu Yichen was, she would definitely not have come.
Ruan Cailing rolled her eyes, "Mu Yizuo wants to see it himself, it's good if he doesn't come by himself!" Why do you have to come and see it! This black and oppressive person, how do I know who Mu Yichen called! I don't know. ”
She pinched the eighteen sons in her hand and looked outside along the curtain, before it was time, many people were whispering below, saying that Lin Yicheng's previous everything, a person who was ranked as a courtier, was actually reduced to a prisoner, and he was beheaded so quickly.
Before, Ruan Cailing was still thinking, why did she convict Lin Yicheng so quickly, and no longer follow Lin Yicheng's line to check again, even if Lin Yicheng can't speak, at least he can write, right?
But seeing that Lin Yicheng was quietly waiting for death now, Ruan Cailing finally understood.
Even if Lin Yicheng died, his wife and concubines ran away, after all, Lin Yicheng still had so much blood and bones, he wanted to live and let the children in the family live.
One day with Mu Yichen, Lin Yicheng thought that he would have such a back road, so Lin Yicheng could only wait here for death without saying a word, and he wanted to leave a way for the children at home to live.
However, Ruan Cailing felt that Mu Yichen was so ruthless, even if Lin Yicheng died, his children would die with him.
"Can Lin Yicheng's children stay? Isn't Lin Ziyan Lin Yicheng's daughter? I'm already married, so there's no danger, right? Ruan Cailing grabbed Gu Jinxi's sleeve and asked.
Gu Jinxi turned around to comfort Ruan Cailing and said, "Don't worry, we have already gone to find those who can be protected, but the woman who is Mu Yichen's staff doesn't know where she went, it is said that she gave birth to a son to Lin Yicheng, and it is estimated that she also took it away, Lin Ziyan didn't know much, she married a daughter, and it will be fine." ”
Hearing Gu Jinxi say this, Ruan Cailing finally put her mind at ease, although Ruan Cailing also felt that Lin Yicheng had relied on Mu Yichen's help to get to where she is today, and she was not good enough for her daughter, and she died when she died.
But the children are innocent, and it is better to leave a way back if they can survive well.
But on the way there, Qingrui found Ruan Cailing in a daze, and Qingrui asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Are you too tired today? Why are you in a daze? ”
Coming back to her senses, Ruan Cailing glanced at Qingrui and shook her head, "I think it's a trouble for Lin Yicheng's children to live." ”
In the final analysis, Lin Yicheng's crime is also determined by Ruan Xuchen, what if Lin Yicheng's child finds trouble with his eldest brother in the future?
Although now she has saved the lives of her eldest brother and her family, making their path different from her previous life, Ruan Cailing still has to ensure that her family is not threatened in the future, Ruan Cailing thought about it, and suddenly said to Jiang Chen, who was driving the carriage outside, "Don't go home first, go to Yanhualou, and when you arrive, you let Xiyin come out, I have something to tell her." ”
"Yes."
Although he didn't know why, Jiang Chen still drove the carriage to Yanhua Building, he jumped down and called Xiyin over, Qingrui and Jiang Chen were waiting below, Xiyin came up with his skirt and glanced at Ruan Cailing, "What?" After watching the beheading, you don't feel comfortable and want me to sleep with you? ”
Xiyin still had a charming smile, Ruan Cailing was stunned for a long time before saying to Xiyin, "Go and find out where Lin Yicheng's children are distributed, and kill all who can be killed, regardless of men and women!" Also, Lin Yicheng, that concubine, do you have a clue who it is? ”
Ruan Xuchen and Gu Jinxi have been investigating this matter, not only Patron Jinxi's people are following, Ling Feng is also inquiring about the news, but there is no new news coming from now.
Seeing Xiyin shaking her head, Ruan Cailing sighed, she didn't know who the concubine was, and naturally she wouldn't know where she and Lin Yicheng's son were hiding, plus Mu Yichen would also give them a guarantee, maybe they were hiding by Mu Yichen's side?
You can't startle the snake.
"Then let's do this first, kill all the children born to my wife and other concubines! Don't leave any of them, if there is news of that concubine, don't let it go, follow it. Ruan Cailing said.
Xiyin didn't expect that after Ruan Cailing saw the beheading, she deliberately went around to Yanhua Building, just to let her cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
After returning home, I wanted to go to Ruan Xuchen, but I heard that Ruan Xuchen went to the shop and never came back, so Ruan Cailing went to the ancestral hall to sit for a long time before going back to rest.
The next day, Su Bangyue suddenly returned.
"Bang Yue, you're back!" Ruan Cailing was very happy to see Su Bangyue, she hadn't seen Su Bangyue for a long time!
Su Wanyue hugged Ruan Cailing and said, "It's only been a long time since I saw her!" You're already engaged! Even Brother Xuchen is engaged to marry the princess, you guys are fast enough! ”
Seeing Su Bangyue's appearance, Ruan Cailing said, "Isn't this urging you to come back!" You won't fail to attend when I'm married! ”
"How is that possible! Not only do I want to participate in your marriage, but I also want to participate in Brother Xuchen's marriage! ”
