Xiao Xiantang thought for a moment and asked, "Now, which faction is the most fierce?" ”

"Among them, the party of the sixth prince Xiao Jingrui made the most trouble, not only made trouble himself, but also privately united many ministers, and also came to a collective audience to abolish the crown prince Xiao Jingxuan's crown prince, which provoked Emperor Sheng to be furious and directly scolded a group of officials, but an old minister did not dare to humiliate him, and directly died and died on the pillar, so that the matter became more and more difficult to clean up." Yan Shoucai said.

After Mu Chonglan on the side heard Yan Shoucai's description, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, so he interjected: "I see that Xiao Jingrui, the sixth prince, is not a fool, why can't I see that the more he is like this, the easier it is to be disgusted by Emperor Sheng?" ”

"Maybe it's because he can't wait." Xiao Xiantang smiled and continued: "He can't wait, so we may have to wait for the national funeral." ”

When Yan Shoucai heard Xiao Xiantang's words, he immediately swallowed back what he wanted to say, he knew that after Xiao Xiantang said the sentence "national funeral", he knew that there was no word for him.

Mu Chonglan tilted his head: "I think he may think that his party is strong enough to compete with the imperial power, after all, his mother's concubine's family has a very solid background, so he is more likely to have plans to force the palace." ”

"No, it won't."

"Why?"

"Forcing the palace, it's not just about bringing down a Sheng Emperor, or bringing down a Xiao Jingxuan, the princelings have a Xiao Jingyan who is different from the outside, and the third prince Xiao Jinghui is behind the Qin family, just these two people are enough for Xiao Jingrui to be busy for a while, not to mention, there are more private actions." Xiao Xiantang said lightly.

Mu Chonglan remembered something, turned his head and asked Yan Shoucai, and said, "Hey, Yan Guanshi, what about the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng?" Did he have any good performances this time? ”

"The Four Princes?" Yan Shoucai thought about it, but he didn't have too much impression, and finally shook his head: "I haven't heard of any movement from the four princes." ”

Yan Shoucai said secretly, Xiao Jingsheng, the fourth prince, is an unfavored person with no background, how could the young lady of his own family remember to mention this?

After Xiao Xiantang heard the conversation between Mu Chonglan and Yan Shoucai, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "You seem to be very optimistic about this fourth prince." ”

Being asked like this suddenly, Mu Chonglan's heart tightened, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded: "Although he doesn't seem to be in the limelight now, he is likely to be the next emperor." ”

"How do you know?" Xiao Xiantang frowned and asked.

"I just know." Mu Chonglan muttered to herself: "Although many people are optimistic about the crown prince or the sixth prince, my seventh sister is a maverick and chooses the fourth prince who is not favored, and the result is bad luck." ”

Is it because Mu Jinse chose the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng?

Xiao Xiantang looked at Yan Shoucai, who was also puzzled, and said, "Go check to see if Xiao Jingsheng has any contact with Mu Jinse." ”

"This ......"

"How?"

"This time the crown prince chose the concubine, Mu Jinse was convicted of misconduct because of the previous incident, and was disqualified from running for the crown princess, and the queen mother also intended to give her to the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng of the right age, but she didn't seem to be willing to do so, so she pushed this family business again." Yan Shoucai explained.

Although these things happened privately and did not spread, it was not a secret to those of them who deliberately investigated, but he felt that this matter was just a small matter, and the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng was just an inconspicuous prince, so he didn't mention it.

At this time, I didn't expect that my young master and young lady would be interested in this fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng.

It seems that when investigating in the future, we will also pay a little attention to this person.

Yan Shoucai thought secretly in his heart.

Mu Chonglan was very surprised when she heard that Mu Jinse actually pushed off the marriage with the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng, because in her impression, in her previous life, Mu Jinse could be said to have a deep love for the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng, although she has a lot of people who have always been in love, but her deep love for the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng is the kind that can be shared with you, so Xiao Jingsheng should be the favorite one among the men she likes.

Although Mu Jinse did not marry the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng in the end in her previous life, she obviously liked the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng at that time, but in the end, in order to better assist the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng, she decided not to marry and become his female prime minister.

How to ...... now? Now it's the marriage that has been postponed first?

Mu Chonglan was a little annoyed, she didn't understand if she remembered it wrongly, or if Mu Jinse actually pushed the marriage in her previous life, but she didn't know the inside story, so she would listen to the rumors that she refused to enter the harem just to better assist the new emperor.

After all, Mu Jinse has many concubines, each of which is so good that it is enviable, if she is the queen, these concubines cannot be kept, maybe she really rejected the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng for these men, it is also possible.

Mu Chonglan was thinking nonsense in his head, and Xiao Xiantang was also thinking, but his thinking was obviously much clearer than Mu Chonglan's.

"Did Mu Jinse have any other contact with the fourth prince, Xiao Jingsheng, in private?" Xiao Xiantang asked.

Yan Shoucai thought for a moment and shook his head: "Because the fourth prince, Xiao Jingsheng, is not the candidate for the crown prince this time, our people did not deliberately pay attention to his movements. ”

"Really?" Xiao Xiantang thought for a moment and asked, "After the meteorite incident this time, is he still closed as before?" ”

"That's true." Yan Shoucai replied, the last time something happened, the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng took the approach of closing the door to thank the guests and protecting himself, but other princes who have no power also do this, so his performance is not very obvious, if you have to say anything obvious...... "By the way, the fourth prince Xiao Jingsheng has been building a lot of construction in recent days, and he has reorganized his prince's mansion, but there has been no other big move, and he has never seen how well he has organized the prince's mansion, it seems that he has also met several masters, It is rumored that he has the intention of taking refuge, but I don't know if it's true or not. ”

"Fake." Xiao Xiantang said without hesitation.

Yan Shoucai was a little confused, and Mu Chonglan was also confused: "Why?" ”

"At this time, the construction should be a back road, and the attitude of protecting one's self has been repeatedly adopted, which is not so much to protect one's self as to accumulate one's strength." Xiao Xiantang said.

"Why are you so sure that he's already recuperating?" Mu Chonglan asked.

Seeing that Mu Chonglan hadn't understood yet, Xiao Xiantang sighed a little helplessly, and asked instead of answering: "Which ones do you think are most likely to sit in that position now?" ”
