Early the next morning, Mo Zhi and Mo Qingyuan both went out, and An Xian stopped Ma Ruiyang, who was about to go to the library, pulled her to sit at the table, and made a pot of tea.

An Xian's actions made Ma Ruiyang a little overwhelmed, so he could only sit quietly on the side, waiting for An Xian to speak.

An Xian looked at the woman in front of him, that handsome appearance really made people like it more and more, and said: "Ruiyang, you have never been to Mofu, do you feel used to it, is there anything you don't like?" ”

Ma Ruiyang replied with a smile: "No, madam, everything is fine, everyone takes special care of me, and it is like being at home in Mofu, there is nothing I am not used to." ”

An Xian nodded, looked at Ma Ruiyang with a smile, and said, "Then, you have also reached the age of talking about marriage, do you have someone you like in your heart?" ”

Ma Ruiyang listened to An Xian's words, lowered his head shyly, and said slowly: "Why did Madam suddenly ask about this." ”

An Xian smiled, took Ma Ruiyang's hand, and said to her: "Yuan'er likes you very much, you told me yesterday, and I discussed this matter with Mo Zhi, and we both agree very much, and we also like you very much." ”

Ma Ruiyang listened to An Xian's words, lowered his head and smiled, a touch of crimson appeared on his face, and whispered: "It turns out that Mrs. knows." ”

After another pause, he raised his head to look at An Xian, and continued: "Madam, Ruiyang has no father and mother, and he has been alone since he was a child, doesn't Madam dislike it?" ”

An Xian listened to Ma Ruiyang's words, shook his head, and hurriedly said: "Where are you from, Qingyuan really likes you, what he likes is you, we don't care about family background like that, you are good and kind-hearted, we like it." ”

After hearing this, Ma Ruiyang lowered his head embarrassedly: "I am originally from Mofu, and it is all up to Mrs. to decide."

…………

"Is this really what An Xian told you?" Mo Chao looked at Ma Ruiyang with a look of surprise, and there was irrepressible excitement in his tone.

Ma Ruiyang nodded, his expression was serious, Mo Chao's face was full of excitement, he laughed and paced a few steps in the room, turned around and leaned back on the chair, and said proudly: "Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass, Mo Qingyuan is now completely in my hands, and when the time is ripe, I will let him and Mo Zhi know how powerful I am." ”

Ma Ruiyang listened to Mo Chao's words, and sat aside without saying a word, without any expression, but the appearance of An Xian and Mo Qingyuan always appeared in his heart.

Mo Zhi looked at Ma Ruiyang and said sternly: "Don't forget your identity, this plan can only succeed and not fail." ”

After a pause, he whispered to Ma Ruiyang: "An Xian is pregnant, is this true?" ”

Ma Ruiyang looked up at Mo Chao and nodded: "Yes, this is also not long ago." ”

Mo Chao twisted his neck, the corners of his mouth hooked up an evil smile, and said with a smile: "There are some things, how can you know how precious they are if you don't lose them?" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the attendant on the side stepped forward and reached out to take out a paper bag from his arms.

Mo Chao took the paper bag, handed it to Ma Ruiyang, and said with a smile: "This packet of medicine is an abortion pill, colorless and tasteless, you take it, find an opportunity, and give it to An Xian." ”

Ma Ruiyang looked at Mo Chao with some surprise, Mo Chao had a grudge against the people in Mo Mansion She knew, but she definitely didn't expect that Mo Chao would come up with such an idea, and took the medicine with some hesitation.

Mo Chao saw Ma Ruiyang's hesitation, stretched out his hand to pat her shoulder, and said: "Don't worry, every time you take the medicine, you only take a little bit, and after a long period of accumulation, An Xian's child will naturally not be able to keep it, and no one will suspect you." ”

Ma Ruiyang's heart was a little inexplicable, but he still took the medicine and put it away.

After saying everything that should be said, Ma Ruiyang was about to get up and leave, but just about to go out, he was stopped by Mo Chao.

Mo Chao's voice was a little cold, his tone was very cold, and he said to Ma Ruiyang: "Don't forget, your life was given by me, and this matter will be handed over to you, but don't make any mistakes." ”

Ma Ruiyang turned around and nodded: "Yes." After that, he went out to the library.

Along the way, Ma Ruiyang had some mixed feelings in his heart, he had been pretending from the beginning, and he had no true feelings for An Xian's family, but now he was a little repulsed by Mo Chao's orders.

Ma Ruiyang didn't dare to think too much, settled down, and hurried towards the library.

The plan went very smoothly, and Mo Chao was very satisfied, and during this period of time, Mo Chao secretly recruited troops and contacted court officials.

Guan Zhen had just ascended the throne, and the prestige of the DPRK and China was insufficient, and many old officials in the DPRK and China did not listen to Guan Zhen very much, and were not very satisfied with Guan Zhen's reform and law changes, and one by one they secretly competed with Guan Zhen.

Mo Chao took advantage of this opportunity, under the banner of the three princes, to win over many officials everywhere, provoke their relationship with Guan Zhen, and wanted to take this opportunity to put pressure on Guan Zhen.

Gradually, the ministers of the DPRK and China divided into two forces, one side supported the reform of Guan Zhen, and the other opposed Guan Zhen did this.

Most of the officials who support Guanzhen are the officials newly supported by Guanzhen, and there are some old ministers, while most of the opponents are veterans of the DPRK and China, and they all have a high status in the officialdom.

As a result, Guan Zhen was a little struggling, and he would receive opposition to change every day, which made Guan Zhen dizzy.

Not only that, the Mo Dynasty also co-opted the local tycoons and opposed the closure of the town, and the peasants benefited the most from the reform, and the interest of the landlords and tycoons would be more or less damaged.

Looking at the wave after wave of opposition among the people, Guan Zhen was a little more than capable of doing so, and he was dizzy by these things all day long.

Looking at Guan Zhen's worried appearance, Mo Chao was very happy in his heart.

Mo Chao was carrying out his plans in Kyoto, and the third prince, Guan Yan, was also secretly making small moves at the border.

Privately raised an army, gradually increased the power of the army, not only that, but also privately signed alliances with small neighboring countries and established military relations.

The plans of Mo Chao and Guan Yan were in full swing, and both of them were very eager to achieve their goals as soon as possible.

One day, Guan Zhen was reviewing the recital, and his father-in-law ran into the Heart Cultivation Palace, and said to Guan Zhen with a somewhat ugly face: "Your Majesty, there are officials outside the door who ask to see you." ”

Guan Zhen looked strange and asked, "Who?" ”

The subordinate didn't know how to speak for a while, and said hesitantly: "The servants are watching, almost all the officials who can come to the court have arrived." ”

Guan Zhen's heart sank after hearing this, leaned back on the dragon chair, and said, "Xuan! ”

The father-in-law went out and invited the officials who were waiting outside the door into the Yangxin Palace, of course, these people were here to exert pressure, and even the words were threatening, as if he could threaten his throne if he didn't withdraw, Guan Zhen didn't think about it for a few days because of this matter,

As soon as the matter came out, Si Lu went to discuss with Mo Zhi, and Mo Zhi said to Guan Zhen: "Your Majesty, the current situation, I'm afraid it is not suitable for compulsory implementation, if it is a hundred officials, forget it, now even the people are against it, it is very unfavorable to the emperor." ”

Guan Zhen nodded and said, "It's just that I don't understand, how can I attract so many people's opposition when it is clear that this time is beneficial and harmless?" ”

Mo Zhi thought carefully for a long time before he said to Guan Zhen: "The minister has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

Guan Zhen looked at Mo Zhi and nodded: "If you have anything, just say it." ”

Mo Zhi then spoke: "The minister thinks that the opposition of the court officials and the demonstration of the rich people are not groundless. ”

Guan Zhen listened to Mo Zhi's words, looked at him suspiciously, and waited for him to continue.

Mo Zhi paused and then said: "In the opinion of the ministers, this joint opposition must be secretly manipulated behind the scenes. "If there is someone, then it must be Mo Chao, in the entire court, only he is the most suspicious, he provoked Guan Qin to rebel back then, and now he is indispensable to participate in this matter.

After Guan Zhen heard this, his brows furrowed, and he hurriedly asked, "Did Commander Mo think of something?" ”

Mo Zhi paused and shook his head: "This ...... Not really, but the top priority now is to stabilize the hearts of the court officials, the emperor has just succeeded to the throne, the power is weak, and he has been in a stalemate with them, and the final disadvantage must be us, it is better for us to take a step back first, and this matter will be investigated slowly later. ”

Guan Zhen nodded after listening to Mo Zhi's words, and now there is only one way to do it.
