When he put on the last jade pendant on Duguyi's waist, he replied to Duguyi and said, "Your Majesty, according to the information provided by the eyeliner we installed in Liu Wangfu, then Liu Wangye has already begun to move." ”

Sure enough, it was not Duguyi's expectations. One of the purposes of returning the military power to the princes is to test them and test Duanmu Lei. Now Duanmu Lei has moved, which is exactly what Duguyi wants to see.

"What kind of movement is it?"

"Back to the emperor, Prince Liu just made an appointment with Prince Gao yesterday. and put forward the matter of wanting the military power in the hands of the high prince. ”

"Did Feng Batian agree to give it to him?" Duguyi leisurely picked up the cup and took a sip of tea.

"Back to the emperor, what Prince Gao means should be to promise Prince Liu, but he hasn't been given to him yet."

When Dugu Yi heard this, he couldn't help but smile:

"The widow knows that Feng Batian will not easily hand over the military power to him."

"It turns out that the emperor expected it." Of course, when Dugu Yi returned the military power to the kings, Gonggong Gao was still full of worries. Now it seems that Dugu Yi is becoming more and more like a god, and Grandpa Gao can't help but be happy for him.

"The widow has always thought that Feng Batian only has the courage of a reckless man, but now he just uses this military power to try it, and he also tries out his nature."

"It's just that the emperor, how are you sure that this Gao Wang Ye will definitely not hand over the military power in his hands to Liu Wang Ye in the future?"

Hearing Grandpa Gao ask, Duguyi couldn't help but smile again. said to him: "The widow is the throne, other people don't talk about it, but the widow's brothers, who is coveting the widow's throne, and who doesn't, the widow can probably still see it."

When Gao Gonggong heard this, if it was really as Dugu Yi said, then Duanmu Lei's ambition might not be satisfied for a while.

"Father-in-law Gao. Except for the two of them, there is no movement from anyone else. ”

"If you go back to the emperor, you haven't yet."

"Good. Then continue to send someone to watch. Dugu Yi knew that as long as he continued to stare at it, it would not be long before there would be new movements.

"Your Majesty, are the two princes in the palace also going to ......?"

"Just send someone to keep an eye on it." Dugu Yi replied to Gao Gong without thinking: "Especially Dugu Yu." ”

"The old slave understood."

After Duguyi's words, when Gao Gongyi was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by Duguyi. An important thing came to mind, and Dugu Yi suddenly remembered something.

"Father-in-law Gao, there is any movement in the cold palace where Zhang Jieyu is being held."

"If you go back to the emperor, you haven't yet."

Because of the previous incident of the warbler beauty, Duguyi specially kept an eye on it this time. It's just that on the day of the trial of the rumors, when Zhang Jieyu was taken away, she had a strange look.

Zhang Jieyu's expression at that time was not only noticed by Zhao Rongrong. Duguyi also noticed, and Duguyi saw something.

At the last moment when Zhang Jieyu was escorted away, her eyes obviously looked at who was in the crowd. I looked left and right.

Regarding her own guilt, Zhang Jieyu also confessed.

This inevitably reminded Duguyi of the previous case of Ying Beauty. The case that seems to have passed, but has not yet been resolved. The death of so many people in the back also proves Duguyi's guess about the suspicious points of that case.

And now Zhang Jieyu's case, although Dugu Yi has not yet seen the suspicions, his intuition tells him that it may not be as simple as he imagined.

There are many smart people in the harem. Seeing that the case was found out so quickly, it was too easy and too superficial.

Thinking about it from another angle, I dare to ask Duguyi if he was a criminal who had carefully arranged the game himself, would he let himself be found out so easily.

After all, there are more than one example of finding a substitute for a dead ghost in this palace.

"Father-in-law Gao, the cold palace also continued to send people to keep an eye on it, as well as Concubine Hui and Concubine Chen, all the people related to this rumor at that time sent people to keep an eye on them. As soon as you notice something, tell the widow immediately. ”

"The old slave understands."

Dugu Yi believes that there should be no problem with his guess. If Zhang Jieyu's case this time really has any hidden secrets, maybe she can find out the people behind the previous case together.

After all, a person who commits a crime once and is not caught will do it a second time.

Duguyi's guess makes sense.

Before getting the military power, several princes seemed to be good brothers, and after getting the military power, it was easy to see who was ambitious and who was not.

Duanmu Lei failed to directly obtain the military power in Feng Batian's hands, although Feng Batian found some excuses to fool the past. But the shrewd Duanmu Lei also saw the clues.

"This Feng Lao Er just refuses to hand over the military power to this king easily, and deliberately says those shirk words, thinking that this king can't see it."

"Lord Wang, what are you going to do now?"

"What to do." Duanmu Lei couldn't help but sneered twice: "This king never needs to ask what to do when he does things." What the king wants, it should belong to the king. No one can stop it! ”

"Does Liu Wangye really think that no one can stop him now?"

As soon as Duanmu Lei's voice fell, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the door. Duanmu Lei and the doormen in Fuzhong cast their eyes towards the door.

With the sound of gradual footsteps, it turned out to be the prime minister Chen Ping.

Chen Ping is now more and more an uninvited guest in Duguyi's mansion.

He is old and cunning, he rarely took the initiative to run in front of Duanmu Lei to show off his might, but now he not only has the courage to deliberately run to this Liu Wangfu, but even dares to distinguish between the host and the guest in front of Duanmu Lei.

If it weren't for the fact that Chen Ping was still useful to Duanmu Lei, Duanmu Lei would probably have found a way to dispose of this person who looked extremely unpleasant.

"The prime minister has such leisure and leisure today, what is the matter with coming to the king's mansion." Duanmu Lei asked like this, but in fact, there is no need to guess to know that Chen Ping will come to his Liu Wangfu at this time, and he must have already known that the kings have taken back the military power.

And the purpose of his coming this time, if it wasn't for the right thing to cooperate, was to come to see his jokes.

When Chen Ping heard this, he only smiled, and then replied to Duanmu Lei in his false tone:

"The old man has been doing his duty for the prince's plan, and it is natural for him to come to the prince's mansion to see the prince." Seeing Duanmu Lei's cold face, he asked him again:

"Why, lord. Isn't Liu Wangye welcoming the arrival of the old man? ”

"How so?" While replying to Chen Ping's words, Duanmu Lei put away his stiff expression, and then laughed twice, so Chen Ping said:

"The prime minister is willing to come to the mansion, and the king is too late to be happy, how can he not welcome it."

Just be happy. Even if he listened to Duanmu Lei say such undesirable words, Chen Ping was still very proud. After all, even if Duanmu Lei pretended to be sincere, he didn't dare not take him as a prime minister in his eyes.

"Lord, since the prince welcomes the arrival of the old man, then the old man should also discuss this matter with the prince."

"The prime minister said it directly."

Chen Ping's ill-intentioned look made Duanmu Lei disgusted in his heart. But since he came here for business, then Duanmu Lei should accompany him for business.

After this false contest, it's time to discuss the right thing.

"Lord Wang, there are some things, since the old man already knows, he won't sell it. The old man heard that the emperor had returned the military power of the princes to the hands of the princes. Ignorance...... What are Liu Wangye's plans next? ”

Chen Ping asked, and Duanmu Lei sounded like a joke. Since he already knew about the emperor's return of the military power to the princes, he didn't know that he Duanmu Lei had not obtained the military power.

pretending to be so serious, you have to let Duanmu Lei humiliate himself. This treacherous and cunning Chen Ping's ability to harm others and benefit himself is really no worse than before.

Duanmu Lei pretended to smile indifferently:

"If you don't bother with the prime minister, this king will be able to control the matter of military power. It's the prime minister, didn't you install your people in the harem? How did this king hear recently that the queen mother had given birth to a child for the emperor. Where is your precious daughter now, and what is she doing? ”

If you talk about cunning, Duanmu Lei will not lose to Chen Ping. Which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned, exposing people's shortcomings is their usual trick. Every word, every word is a contest.

"Lord Liu, don't be in a hurry." Chen Ping was not frightened at all, but smiled calmly, and then said to Mu Lei on the other side:

"Lord Liu, you said that you can control the matter of military power, but how did the old man hear that the prince does not have much military power in his hands now. The military power in the hands of several princes is also comparable, how can you control this strength? ”

Sure enough, there is no need for Duanmu Lei to reveal it himself, Chen Ping has already felt his bottom clearly. It's a shame that he deliberately pretended to be stupid just now. Obviously, talking about business is just a pretense, and the real purpose of Chen Ping's trip is to see his jokes.

Duanmu Lei was thinking about how to reply to him, but before he could speak, he heard Chen Ping say triumphantly:

"The prince is not going to tell the old man that you want to include the military power in the hands of several other princes to expand your strength. The old man advises you not to have this idea. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"For the good of the prince." Chen Ping replied without hesitation:

"Prince, if you buy the military power in the hands of other princes, if the emperor knows about this kind of thing, you and all the princes will not be able to eat and walk around. Therefore, the prince still thinks about it, if you ask for military power with a few princes like this, will they give it to you. Not only will it not be given, but the result is also very serious. Also, the emperor's real power must have been seen by Prince Liu in the past few days. If you want to be tough, I'm afraid you won't be able to fight the emperor. ”

Chen Ping's words, word by word, reveal disdain for Duanmu Lei, but they are also reasonable. Duanmu Lei was silent, listening to him, he didn't dare to refute anything.

"What does the prime minister think?"

Listening to Duanmu Lei's question, Chen Ping smiled again, so he made a little mysterious, and replied to Duanmu Lei:

"Lord Wang, speaking of ideas, the old man doesn't dare to make decisions for the prince easily. However, the old man wanted to remind the prince that the plan to seize the throne was not as simple as the prince thought, and what kind of strategy the emperor had was not as simple as the prince thought. No matter how much the prince wants to sit on this throne, he must not act rashly in everything. Also, in the end, the old man wants to say something unpleasant, and to do things, he has to use his brain first. ”

Chen Ping approached Duanmu Lei's face, deliberately pointed to his mind with his finger, said the last sentence, and left without looking back.

No matter how much anger and unwillingness Duanmu Lei felt in his heart at this time, it couldn't offset his worries about his plans. I didn't expect that all this that I had worked hard for a long time would suddenly be said to be useless by Chengping. In addition, he was also humiliated by a courtier like Chen Ping.

He couldn't swallow this breath.

In the early morning, the humidity is thick, and the sun is gradually rising in the sky, and the dew drops between the stamens and green leaves are shining with their brightest light.

Qin Liusu, who had just gotten up from the bed, was sleepy-eyed. Spring sleepiness, summer lack of autumn nap, this is not wrong at a glance.
