A fire in the Taishou Mansion is too small to be worth mentioning for the entire Jiankang City. Leaning on the fact that the nearest house in Taishou Mansion was not even lit by candles, this night was still an ordinary and quiet night for them.

The undercurrent surging around the imperial city continued, and when the early dynasty entered the palace, someone subconsciously glanced at Lord Taishou. According to their eyeliner report, last night the Taishou Mansion went to water and burned a lady to death. And most of their emotions are rare to have information, it is such an innocuous thing.

Isn't it just the death of a lady, and it can't be used as evidence of his rebellion? As long as the princess appointed by the emperor was not burned to death, they didn't even need to say words of condolence.

As early as the dynasty, Huan Xuan once again admonished that he wanted to cancel the Beifu soldiers of the Xie family, and the city defense needs could be handled by his soldiers.

How could the Wang family agree to such a thing.

Although the Xie family withered, they were still loyal to the Southern Dynasty, not to mention that the Beifu soldiers were elite soldiers who returned triumphantly in the Battle of Weishui, how could they give up casually.

Moreover, Huan Xuan is already a Xiangguo, and if he hands over the city defense, this imperial power will not become an ornament.

The Wang family originally wanted to choose one between Huan Xuan and Liu Yu to win over, but now Huan Xuan can't. He was obviously extremely greedy, the lion opened his mouth, and Liu Jingxuan took refuge in him with that little soldier, and he felt a little arrogant standing in the court.

As for Liu Yu, he has always been in a neutral position on whether to revoke the Beifu soldiers. But who believes that he will remain neutral, he is just waiting and seeing.

If the undercurrent of power and conspiracy revolves around the emperor, it sounds right, but the real central place is probably a little closer to the harem.

There are many old ministers and important ministers of the Wang family in the court, and they not only have a few strategies, but Zhou Xuan's skills are even more pure and passionate. So even if a figure like Xiangguo wants to advise on one thing, it will be very unanimous, otherwise it will be a long time after a few rounds.

In addition, the emperor is a fool with an incomplete mind, and he can't make up his mind, so if he is in a hurry, he will go back to rest at low tide.

What did you say to rest, it's not that I'm in a hurry, I can't help it, go back and ask the queen.

Wang Shenai doesn't need to listen to the government, but every morning she will sit in the back hall of the main hall and listen silently, secretly observing every move outside. In the case of the unfavorable Wang family, there are old ministers of the Wang family to delay time, and she will find a way to deal with them after the next dynasty, and finally pass on her meaning through Emperor Dezong.

"That bastard, does he really think that if he sits on the throne of Xiangguo, he can do whatever he wants?" Wang Shenai was furious after returning to Ruixiang Palace.

"He got the position of Xiangguo, so he naturally wants to get more." It was the maid next to the queen who spoke, her name was Ming Yue, of course this was not her real name.

Her real name is Wang Mingyu, and she is Wang Shenai's cousin, who has been smart and intelligent since she was a child, and is good at attacking her minds. It is precisely because of this that she was sent to Wang Shenai by her family with high hopes to help her.

Ming Yue stood beside Wang Shenai, his eyes were sharp, and the corners of his mouth said with a smile, "What's more, there is Liu Yu eyeing him, if he doesn't fight for more, maybe he will be snatched away by Liu Yu." ”

Wang Shenai sat on the carved wooden chair and thought thoughtfully, "Then what does Liu Yu think?" Could it be that he would really allow Jiankang City to be full of Huan Xuan's soldiers? ”

Of course, he didn't want Jiankang City to be full of Huan Xuan's soldiers. It's just that at this time, it was Huan Xuan who opened his mouth first, and he didn't believe that you could agree to Xiangguo's request. "Octavia is slightly younger than Wang Shenai, but the battle of officialdom has also been cultivated since childhood, and he is by no means inferior to those old courtiers in terms of scheming.

"He's sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight." Wang Shenai stared out the window, his fingers tapped on the edge of the wooden chair, and the thoughts in his mind were spinning rapidly, "Is there any way to lure him out?" ”

"Yes." Ming Rui's eyes were gloomy, and he thought of a way in an instant, "As long as you agree to withdraw the Beifu soldiers, he will immediately jump out and compete with Huan Xuan for the defense of the city." Then you just have to woo him at this moment and make overtures to him, and he will definitely agree. ”

"Nope." Wang Shenai shook his head, "Even if this plan can be successful, it will be easy for the Beifu soldiers to be withdrawn, and it will be almost impossible to rebuild." Even if he defeats Huan Xuan in the future, what will he do to deal with it? ”

She had more scruples. She can't solve it quickly in order to deal with Huan Xuan, and it will be difficult to ride a tiger at that time, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Mingyue just threw out a random suggestion, sometimes it is really important to find out how wise the leader has been, and whether it has declined. She didn't answer her cousin's words, but raised her lips and mentioned another matter, "Queen Mother, the death of the first emperor that you asked me to check before is already a little eyebrow-raising. ”

Wang Shenai frowned, "Let's hear it." ”

"When the first emperor was still there, Pan Mengluan had an insignificant janitor by his side. After the death of the first emperor, Pan Mengluan moved to Jiaxian Yuan with other concubines, and the little slave was arranged elsewhere. I inadvertently visited him today, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain. Mingyue raised her eyebrows and said evilly, "The little slave said, in fact, Pan Mengluan arranged for others to enter the palace that night. ”

"Who is it?"

"That little slave doesn't know." Mingyue didn't care, but continued to deduce, "Since she secretly arranged for someone to enter, it means that this matter is shady." Immediately after that, the first emperor died, which must have nothing to do with her. ”

"At that time, she was being favored, but she conspired with someone to murder the first emperor......" Wang Shenai frowned and pondered, and suddenly came to a conclusion, even she herself was shocked, "She is not for her own interests, but for another person, the person she really serves." ”

This point, Ming Yue also figured it out when he got the news.

"The queen is right. The first emperor died, and our demented emperor ascended the throne, and some things were done more smoothly. Ming Yue paused, paying attention to Wang Shenai's expression and continued, "And after being silent for a while, he openly played tricks to let the emperor canonize Princess Tianjin, making everything seem to be a coincidence. ”

"It's Liu Yu. No, it's not. Wang Shenai thought of Liu Yu, but immediately denied it, "Pan Mengluan has been in the palace for more than ten years, and Liu Yu was just reckless in those years, how could he have the ability to bury Pan Mengluan's deep chess." What's more, how could the master marry his own pawn? ”

Ming Yue nodded and said confirmly, "She deliberately made that woman a princess, I'm afraid it wasn't for the princess, but for Liu Yuhao to marry her." ”

Wang Shenai continued to think along the other party's train of thought, "So, Liu Yu is just a person who is being watched, so who is her real master?" ”

"It's not a coincidence, the queen asked people to check Tianjin's identity, and I had to believe it yesterday, but I haven't had time to report it yet."

"How?"
