If Tian Shilang wants to design Su Mu, someone must have instructed him, otherwise he has no reason to design a second-grade minister to frame the prince, and at this time, only the eldest prince has a motive.

The fourth prince and the fifth prince are not in Chang'an, and the remaining princes are still young, even if Su Mu falls, they will not be able to benefit, so it will not be them.

Since the eldest prince intends to frame Su Mu, he must start from the military department in which Su Mu is in power, and in Chang'an City, the most powerful military department is the patrol battalion, and the patrol battalion is obtained, and the eldest prince wants to hold the entire Chang'an City in his hands.

He already has henchmen in other departments, and if he is allowed to take away the patrol battalion of the military department, it will be even more difficult for Su Mu to survive in Chang'an in the future.

In the middle of the moon, Qin Miaomiao let her waste bodyguards sneak into Chen's mansion with her, in order to ensure that he was thorough, no one else could know about his relationship with Chen Yuanbo.

Chen Yuanbo, who was reading a book, was startled by Qin Miaomiao, who suddenly came in: "How did you come here in the middle of the night?"

Qin Miaomiao smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master Chen, the matter is urgent, I came in over the wall, it was abrupt, abrupt." ”

Chen Yuanbo led Qin Miaomiao to the coffee table, "What is the matter with coming to me today?"

Qin Miaomiao didn't beat around the bush and told Chen Yuanbo about the recent turmoil in the city, but Chen Yuanbo was confused when he heard it. I am a minister, and the turmoil in the city is a matter of the military department, so it stands to reason that I can't intervene or help.

"Why didn't Miss Qin descend and inform Wu Anjun as soon as possible at this time? The matter is rightfully under his jurisdiction. "Chen Yuanbo can't help.

Qin Miaomiao shook his head, this matter can't be known to Su Mu, if he knows about it, even if he takes precautions, it is not the best solution to let the eldest prince's plan fail.

This failure, the eldest prince will not give up, and will definitely find other ways to harm Su Mu, it is better to use his strength, Su Mu can't get cheap, and he shouldn't be happy!

"I have other ways to deal with this matter, but I have to ask Lord Chen for a favor." Qin Miaomiao had already had a plan in her heart.

Since Qin Miaomiao had already said the words of asking for help, Chen Yuanbo naturally would not refuse, "Please say, I will definitely try my best to help." ”

"Lord Chen is in the Ministry of Officials, you should know something about the official scheduling, right? Which general is set for this year's tax and grain escort, can there be four princes or five princes? "In fact, Qin Miao Miao expected that there would definitely be one of them, the emperor was suspicious, the escort of grain and grass was poor, he would not use others, the fourth prince and the fifth prince had an upright temperament and were trusted by him, so he would definitely let one of them come back.

As Qin Miaomiao expected, "It is the fifth prince who is scheduled to escort the grain and grass this year, and he will return to Beijing at the end of the month to report on his work and receive his orders." ”

"Is there a way to get him back to Beijing a few days earlier?"

Chen Yuanbo pondered for a while, "It's okay to arrive, the five princes are in Surabaya Pass, if you are in advance, you can return to Beijing in less than ten days." ”

got up and blessed Chen Yuan, "Thank you, Lord Chen, for your help." ”

Chang'an City, which was originally peaceful, has been burglarious and brawls frequently in recent days, and the most serious one was a fire in a silk village, which burned several nearby shops, not only suffered great losses, but also burned to death the guys in two shops.

One after another, although it was not a big deal, it also had a great impact on him, and many ministers jointly signed a petition to impeach him for dereliction of duty.

The most serious one was the theft of the palace, although only some gold and silver were lost, but the gang of thieves seemed to be very familiar with the terrain of the palace, and the patrol battalion and the royal guard were dispatched at the same time, and they still let them escape.

The theft of the palace, after a night of fermentation, spread throughout Chang'an City early in the morning, and Qin Miaomiao received the news in the middle of the night.

Prepare early, about the time of the emperor's court, rushed to the palace in advance and waited.

When Gonggong Li came to invite her to the audience, he had a calm face, "You girl, it's not the right time to come, the emperor is angry at this time." ”

Qin Miaomiao pursed her lips, followed behind Gonggong Li with low eyebrows, she didn't dare to talk, she didn't want to be beaten by this old eunuch before she saw the emperor.

Seeing that Qin Miaomiao didn't react, Gonggong Li snorted coldly and walked in front to lead the way for her.

As soon as he walked outside the hall gate, there was a sound of a broken teacup in the house, obviously Su Zuyao was angry and angry.

The two stopped outside the door, and Gonggong Li asked uneasily, "You can be clever later, don't add fuel to the fire, be careful of your puppy's life!" ”

waved his fist at Gonggong Li's back, this old eunuch, he won't say good things, "Yes, thank you Gonggong Li for mentioning it, I recently came to my shop with a batch of jade, all of which are in excellent condition, you have time to help with the tasting." ”

Gonggong Li glanced at Qin Miaomiao, but his tone softened a lot, "Ghost clever, the eldest prince and several adults in the ministry have just made the emperor angry, and you are angry at this time, you should hide." ”

Gonggong Li pushed the door of the palace open, and cautiously entered the hall, not daring to breathe, "Your Majesty, Miss Qin is here." ”

As soon as Qin Miaomiao entered the door, she saw broken porcelain pieces all over the ground, and it seemed that Su Zuyao was really angry.

The emperor was obviously angry, and snorted coldly, "Hmph, what are you doing here?" Is it also intercession for the third child?"

Pretending to be frightened, he glanced at the emperor and whispered, "The people's daughter came today because of other things, and it has nothing to do with Wu Anjun." "Actually, she didn't have any, but she had to go to the palace and have a few words to say to the emperor.

Su Zuyao was skeptical: "What's the matter with you?" Say it! ”

Qin Miaomiao lowered her head and rolled her eyes secretly, but her voice was very respectful, "Your Majesty, the autumn harvest is about to end, and after paying the taxes and grain, the people will take out the surplus grain to replace it, so my shop will be busy, and I want my two younger sisters to help me take care of the shop." ”

The emperor seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Qin Miaomiao's trivial matter, and he couldn't help but reprimand, "You also come to ask me about this matter?" Are you asking the third child about my tone? It seems that he cares a lot about the jurisdiction of the patrol battalion? ”

glanced at Su Zuyao tremblingly, sincerely afraid; "Your Majesty, you misunderstood, I just came to ask if you can release Sanya and Siya, I don't understand what you said about the patrol camp."

"Hmph, since you're not here to help the third child speak, then you should tell me that this patrol battalion was negligent in its duties and actually made the palace theft, but the third child has military merits, and I haven't been punished yet, and the generals of the military department have already jointly interceded for the third child, what do you say I should do?" Su Zuyao's eyes were like eagles, shining with sharp light.

Gonggong Li, who was standing on the side, saw Su Zuyao's expression, and couldn't help but mention that Qin Miaomiao pinched a handful of sweat, and the emperor's posture was afraid that Qin Yatou was going to get into trouble.

Qin Miaomiao was naturally embarrassed, and she didn't say a word for a long time, Su Zuyao was a little impatient, "Didn't the third child teach you how to say when you came?" What do you do? ”

The more the emperor urged, the more cramped Qin Miaomiao became, and he hesitated for a long time before he spoke, "Your Majesty, I am just a shopkeeper, how do you know these things, don't embarrass me, didn't I see the eldest prince just now, he knows the most about officialdom, he can't help you, and I am even more incompetent." ”

Su Zuyao frowned slightly, Qin Miaomiao reminded him that the eldest prince's behavior today was a little abnormal, and he chose himself too cleanly.

Qin Miaomiao secretly looked at Su Zuyao's expression, she knew that her words had worked, Su Zuyao was suspicious by nature, "Your Majesty, if you agree to my request, I will leave first." ”

He waved his hand impatiently, "Let's go." ”

After Qin Miaomiao left, Gonggong Li called his subordinates to clean up the broken porcelain pieces, and he stood aside to mention Su Zuyao to sort out the fallen pieces.

Coldly, that Su Zu opened his mouth, startling him, "Lao Li, who did you say was making trouble behind this." ”

Gonggong Li carefully arranged the folds, and hesitated to speak, "The old slave is stupid, I can't see what is behind this~"

"If you say it, you can say it, what do you say!" Su Zuyao has always had little patience.

But Gonggong Li has been by his side for decades, and he has already figured out his temper, and everyone has become a fine, "Your Majesty, don't you embarrass the old slave, didn't Miss Qin say everything, there is no way for a smart and capable person like the eldest prince, and the old slave's elm head can't think of it." ”

After stopping his words, Su Zuyao suddenly raised his eyebrows to look at him, and nodded thoughtfully, "This reminds me." Hum! I'm still alive and well, and I'm starting to trick myself right under my nose! ”

Gonggong Li stood aside, not daring to say anything more, Su Zuyao thought for a while, and then spoke, "Is it the fourth or the fifth child who escorts the tax grain this year?" ”

"If you go back to the emperor, you are the fifth prince, and you should return to Beijing in a few days."

Su Zuyao's eyes were full of mockery, "It's good to come back, it's too early to fight for power, since you earn it, I won't let any of you get it." ”

On the second day of Qin Miaomiao's entry into the palace, the holy decree in the palace was transmitted to Su Mu's princely mansion, and the emperor handed over the task of escorting grain and grass to Su Mu this year, so that the five princes temporarily took over the post of head of the patrol battalion.

The holy decree, the party Su Mu is nothing, but the eldest prince is angry, "Let the fifth child get cheap in vain, he and the third child are already close, so we are not busy in vain!" ”

Tian Shilang stroked his goatee, which had few roots, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Don't panic, the eldest prince, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, slowly figure it out, you can't be anxious." ”

"I'm not in a hurry? My father is in good health, and when he returns to heaven, I'm afraid I will be buried in half of the loess~"

"Prince, there are some words that cannot be spoken!" Before Su Che's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Tian Shilang.

Su Che was so angry that he clenched his fists tightly, "Be a roundworm in his stomach all day long, I've endured enough of it these days, and it's easy to get rid of the third child's waste, but he came back again, what do you say we should do now?" ”

Continue to stroke his few beards, "Prince, we have a better chance this time!" ”
