After sitting in the Second Prince's Mansion for a while, there was some news on the matters to be investigated. Outside the door, a shrill voice came, Xin Yao looked at Zhuo Yucheng, signaling that it was the message of the secret guard, Zhuo Yucheng nodded, acquiescing to her to retreat temporarily. Xin Yao then got up and walked outside the door, Mu Yunxiao and Bai Yixue both looked at Xin Yao's back, and then looked at each other.

After a while, he saw Xin Yao step into the room with a letter, handed it to Zhuo Yucheng, and said, "Everything you want to check is here." The things mentioned in the letter, Fang Cai Secret Guard had already told her, thinking of the reason for the Fu family's refusal to marry, Xin Yao was a little surprised.

After reading the letter carefully, Zhuo Yucheng had a clear look on his face, but he didn't say anything with a smile, which made Mu Yunxiao and Bai Yixue even more curious, what was written in the letter?

After reading the letter, Zhuo Yucheng raised his head, handed the letter to Mu Yunxiao and the two of them, and said to himself: "What Miss Fu said is indeed true. The letter and Miss Fu's words are not bad at all, and what Meng Qiushuang did to the Fu family is enough to become the motivation for Fu Qingqing to find another ally. ”

During Zhuo Yucheng's speech, Mu Yunxiao read all the books in the letter one by one, and most of his heart was clear, but there was still one thing he didn't understand: "If Meng Qiushuang really did such things as he said in the letter, why didn't Fu Ziwen write to his father and punish him impartially?"

In order to protect his own power, he slaughtered all the people who knew about it, leaving only Fu Ziwen's father and daughter, coercing and seducing, and forcibly making a marriage contract with others, taking this as a hostage. Each one, if it is taken care of by the emperor himself, must be an unforgivable capital sin. Mu Yunxiao couldn't figure out why he suffered such a disaster, but Fu Ziwen did nothing and didn't complain.

Zhuo Yucheng shook his head and explained: "It's a matter of women's reputation, how can they be tried in public, and besides, even if the Fu family disregards face and sues the emperor, the Meng family's power is strong, and the other five forces will be enveloped at that time, even if His Majesty the Emperor intends to protect each other, do you think the Fu family still has a place in the court?"

"It's... It's really heartbreaking. "Mu Yunxiao is upright and fair by nature, and he can't see such an injustice.

"Since what Miss Fu said is true, is it possible for His Highness to form an alliance with him?" I think that the Fu family is also pitiful, named the fourth in the family, but it is suppressed by other families everywhere and forced by others, Fu Qingqing is a soft on the outside and strong on the inside, how can he endure such humiliation. is also a woman, Bai Yixue has a trace of sympathy for Fu Qingqing in her heart.

"There's no hurry. Zhuo Yucheng waved his hand, the Fu family is indeed a breakthrough point, but Miss Fu can be geometric, he has to figure it out.

"What's the matter, do you have other ideas?" Mu Yunxiao looked at Zhuo Yucheng's expression, and knew that this kid had another idea in his stomach.

"Since Miss Fu took the initiative to ask for an alliance, there must be an expression, so let's see how far she can go. "He doesn't want to trade at a loss.

Hearing this, Mu Yunxiao nodded, agreeing with Zhuo Yucheng's words. Bai Yixue frowned at this time, she didn't like these calculating things, but the current situation has drawn her into this whirlpool of disputes.

"What are you going to do?" Xin Yao wanted to know what Zhuo Yucheng would do next.

Zhuo Yucheng tilted his head and smiled, shook his wrist, and waved the tea in the cup into the microwave and said, "Your Highness, can you have any interesting things in the court recently?" Mu Yunxiao was asked like this, and he didn't react for a while, three pairs of eyes looked at him together, looked at Zhuo Yucheng for a moment, and carefully recalled what happened in the court recently.

"Recently, above the court, there is indeed a matter of great concern. Mu Yunxiao raised his eyes and looked around at everyone, and said, "A few days ago, my father just promoted a new scholar to serve as the secretary of the ministry, and he is in charge of all matters in the ministry. ”

"That new scholar, what is his identity?" Zhuo Yucheng took a sip of tea and put down the teacup with a clear expression. There are many people in the palace, and many news can be learned from the side without having to inquire in person. What's more, this news is not a trivial matter.

Mu Yunxiao said: "A scholar, a scholar with lofty ideals, named Yang Ming, has a fair and honest personality, acts decisively and simply, does not occupy a place, does not favoritism, and gives him the post of secretary of the ministry with his father's confidence." As he spoke, the meaning of Zhuo Yucheng gradually became clear in his heart. That's right, there have always been important positions in the court, except for the military department and the criminal department, all of which are entrusted to the children of the family, and the seventh family has a solid position in the court because of this. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Officials have all been selected by their fathers, not children of the family, and have never been designated to people from poor families. Now, the original Ministry of Shangshu returned to his hometown for the elderly due to old age, and the position of the Ministry of Officials was vacant.

"A scholar, a scholar from the Hanmen, the emperor appointed Yang Ming to the important positions of the Hanmen and the family, which have never been touched by the two opposing parties, what is the holy will, is it not clear?" Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Seven Families have held the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Households, and the post of the Ministry of Officials has never fallen into the hands of the family. In this situation, in front of the ministers of the court, the emperor decreed that the post of secretary of the ministry was appointed to Yang Ming, a man from a poor family, which gave the cold family the strength to compete with the family.

"Father, I am supporting the cold door..."Mu Yunxiao fell into deep thought, in this way, the people of the poor family will have the opportunity to enter the court, and they will no longer be the same as in the past, everything will be overwhelmed by the people of the family, and there is no place for the economy. It's just that he can't figure it out, his father has never managed the contradictions between the two factions, why this time....

"Second Brother Mu, you have a good father. Zhuo Yucheng said this, telling the truth. The emperor knew in his heart the hearts of his two sons, and he did this, in addition to the emperor's checks and balances, there was also the protection of his two sons.

"Father..."Mu Yunxiao is not stupid, he knows that the Seventh Family, relying on their own founding efforts and prestige in the court, is about to overwhelm the royal family, if they are allowed to go on like this, I am afraid... The royal family will be in crisis, so the father wants to check and balance, promote the poor people, these people, full of patriotism, since childhood, read poetry and books, well versed in the gift of loyalty, presumably those children of the family, loyalty to the royal family, more convincing. In this way, the royal family of the Mu family can be kept from being controlled by the Seventh Family and can occupy the main throne.

"Second Brother Mu, since the emperor has already set up this line, let's go along this line. Zhuo Yucheng gestured to Mu Yunxiao with his eyes and told him that the scholar Yang Ming was their first step.

When Mu Yunxiao heard this, he nodded: "Yang Ming, it is indeed a crucial step. But, what does this have to do with Miss Fu's family?" "Listening to what Zhuo Yucheng meant, is it to involve Fu Qingqing as well?"

"Second Brother Mu, now the momentum of the court, two points, the eldest prince is supported by the power of the Seventh Family, and holds the two major forces of the Ministry of Household and Rites, and you..."

"Yang Ming is a person with lofty ideals in the cold family, and I am the most prestigious person in the cold family, if I really want to test it, shouldn't I come to the door in person and show more sincerity?" Regarding Zhuo Yucheng's suggestion, Mu Yunxiao was very puzzled in his heart.

"Second Brother Mu, the secret attack in the eastern suburbs, the encirclement and suppression of the Divine Weapon Pavilion, the assassination on weekdays, the family faction, I have a clear and extraordinary grasp of your every move, if you go to Yang Ming so blatantly, I am afraid, the family will probably jump over the wall in a hurry." Not only is your safety worrying, but I'm afraid that Yang Ming can't be guaranteed. "Zhuo Yucheng is not afraid of those assassins who assassinated, he is more worried that Mu Yunxiao will become the target of the family's attention prematurely, after all, he is at a disadvantage now, if he tries to win over Yang Ming with great fanfare, it will only let the Seventh Family see that he is eager to become stronger, and then take advantage of the current advantage to suppress Mu Yunxiao.

"Then what difference can Fu Qingqing make?" Mu Yunxiao couldn't figure out this truth.

"Fu Qingqing goes, on behalf of the Fu family, to put it bigger, it represents the seventh family, the people of the family will only do their best to send her to the test, without any doubt, and she is a woman, Yang Ming's wariness of her will be lower than that of men, she is also a smart woman, I believe that she will be able to ask some useful news. Zhuo Yucheng explained: "What's more, this is also a test for Yucheng to give her, to see if she is sincere in forming an alliance with us." ”

After this explanation, Mu Yunxiao finally understood Zhuo Yucheng's hard work, smiled clearly, and nodded in agreement with Zhuo Yucheng's proposal.

Bai Yixue was on the side, her brows were tightly knit when she heard this, and her eyes when she looked at Zhuo Yucheng were also full of dissatisfaction, staring at Zhuo Yucheng's scalp a little numb.

If the eyes can kill, I am afraid that the eyes of the senior sister can cut him with a thousand knives, Zhuo Yucheng shrank in his heart, still smiled with a smile on his face, and said to Bai Yixue: "Senior sister." ”

Hearing Zhuo Yucheng's call, Bai Yixue twisted her head to the side without giving face, unwilling to deal with him. The treacherous plan of a belly, not only to pull Zhongliang into the water, but also to calculate the woman who has the intention to form an alliance, is what a husband does, and what a decent person does!

Hey, Zhuo Yucheng sighed lightly in his heart, his senior sister, what he hated the most was these smoky miasma, intrigue calculations, this time, he not only made her see bad feelings in her eyes, but also involved her in the battle for succession, and he really couldn't help her.

"That's right, Second Brother Mu. Thinking of one thing in his heart, Zhuo Yucheng stopped Mu Yunxiao and said: "Yang Ming, this person, I still need Second Brother Mu to understand it well, whether it is handed over to the secret guard or knocked on the side from the mouth of other people from the cold door, as long as you can find out this person's temperament." "Since there is an intention to win over, it is natural that the investigation needs to be thorough.

"Okay, leave it to me. Mu Yunxiao nodded in agreement.

At this time, there was another shrill sound outside the door, Xin Yao suddenly raised her head, the secret guard transmitted?!The news she wanted had been obtained, how could there be a secret guard to pass the sound?! Without caring about asking Zhuo Yucheng, Xin Yao got up and ran out of the door.

After a while, I saw Xin Yao's face enter with a puzzled look, and the three people in the room saw it, all of them were concerned, Zhuo Yucheng asked, "What makes you look like this?"

Xin Yao raised her head and said, "Mu... The eldest prince, went to the flowers. ”
