Chapter 129: Fighting wits and courage
"This eldest prince doesn't have to worry, you will know the skills of the people's daughter in a while."
"Okay." Li Quan changed his arrogant sitting posture and looked at her.
"As long as you can satisfy this prince today, keeping you in the palace is just a trivial matter."
As he spoke, he changed his words again: "However, you should know what happens to those who dare to play tricks in front of this prince!"
Nan Xiaowu smiled: "The eldest prince should have heard of the rumors of the folk Eagle Peak Mountain, right?"
"Naturally, Eagle Peak Mountain is a mountain range in the Lingnan area, the terrain is rugged and dangerous, and there are many false treasure rumors."
"That's right, not only are there many rumors, but there are also many people who have gone to Eagle Peak Mountain for the sake of these rumors. But so far, no one has ever found the treasure. ”
"So you mean, the rumors of the treasure of Eagle Peak Mountain are true?"
"Exactly, the eldest prince can take a look at the topographic map in his hand. This is a detailed description of Mt. Washimine, but this is only the upper part of the fragment. ”
Li Quan looked at the picture and saw that it was indeed incomplete, so he asked her again.
"According to what you just said, there are two topographic maps of this Eagle Peak Mountain, and this is only the first half, and there are important parts in the hands of others, right?"
"Yes, so that's why I came to the Great Prince this time."
"And who's in the hands of the rest of this?"
"This is not clear for the time being, but according to the information I have learned, the topographic map of the other half of the Eagle Peak Mountain is in the palace of the capital!"
Li Quan's eyes flashed, and his eyes looked at Nan Xiaowu with a hint of inquiry.
"Last night, Wang Hengzhi's incriminating evidence was all given to this prince by you, right? Why do you want to do this, don't you know, he's the prince's man?! ”
Regarding his sudden coercive questioning, Nan Xiaowu just smiled faintly before saying.
"The eldest prince said that he was your person, but he died, and the folk girl never saw a sad look on the eldest prince's face!"
Nan Xiaowu ignored the action of stabbing her with his elbow in spite of the west wind and continued to say to Li Quan, whose face was already dark.
"The eldest prince is a person who does great things, so naturally he will not keep useless people by his side, not to mention that he is a person like Wang Hengzhi who knows how to hide and does not report, and he harbors evil intentions!"
"The eldest prince, the martial girl is straightforward and fast-talking, don't be like a little woman like her!"
Xifeng Lie really obeyed Nan Xiaowu's courage, and he was as open-mouthed in the palace as outside, and he was not afraid of losing his head at any time!
"Little woman?"
Li Quan got up and came to the two of them, first looked at Nan Xiaowu, and then looked at Xi Fenglie.
The atmosphere had become a little oppressive because of his arrival, and it was not until Li Quan spoke again that the sense of urgency was tempered.
"Xi Fenglie, you are still a military general, and when you say it, there is no girl who is bold and simple!"
The gloom on Li Quan's face dissipated, and he said straightly: "She is right, although Wang Hengzhi is a person from this prince on the surface, behind his back he is the same as his uncle, left and right, yang and yin!"
He approached the west wind and fiercely: "You say, a minister like his uncle and nephew, shouldn't this prince have been cleared up a long time ago?"
"The eldest prince is smart and peerless, naturally no one's careful thinking can escape your eyes."
Li Quan looked at Xi Fenglie's usual posture boringly, like a wooden man!
This is also the reason why he has been in the capital for so many years and is still a military general.
"Elm pimple!"
Li Quan can't do anything about him, this person is too clever and not good, and it's even worse if he is too honest. But this martial girl... Seems to be interesting!
"How did you get that evidence?"
He was very curious, knowing that with the power of the Yin Wang family, it was impossible for them to keep those evidence waiting to be found and harm themselves.
If there is, it is absolutely cautious and will not give people a chance to know.
And not only did he get it easily yesterday, but when he came forward, Yin Shijun looked completely caught off guard.
And I can't believe it when I see those things, it's just that I was given it without any news...
Li Quan looked at her and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Who are you, Fifth Brother Jianghu?"
Nan Xiaowu was slightly surprised, and soon became indifferent again: "What, the eldest prince is interested in her?"
"The woman in Xunfang Pavilion last night said that she vaguely heard the words of the fifth brother and the like, if this prince did not guess wrong, this fifth brother should be the fifth brother who is famous in the rivers and lakes, right?"
Nan Xiaowu smiled silently.
"If you are one of his people, then the prince can understand why you have such a great ability to cross the two families of his Yin Wang! However, you are so menacing, which makes this prince very suspicious? ”
Suspicion that their intentions are not pure, and another possibility is that they want to use him!
When this thought finally appeared in Li Quan's mind, he looked at Nan Xiaowu's eyes and changed again and again.
If Nan Xiaowu had a strange look or panic at this moment, she would immediately be shot by the archers hiding in the shadows!
It's a pity that Li Quan was disappointed, Nan Xiaowu still stood calmly in front of him, even if he couldn't see her expression, he could feel her calmness.
"The eldest prince, there is no doubt in employing people, no suspicion is needed, if I come with such great sincerity today, and I can't let the eldest prince break the scruples in my heart, then I have nothing to say!"
Nan Xiaowu's tone was also much tougher than before.
"What is the general situation in the capital, I believe the eldest prince knows better than anyone else. Regardless of whether the rumors of the mineral deposits in Eagle Peak Mountain are true or not, now that you control most of the personnel of the Imperial Court of the capital, why are you afraid of me, a little woman who is single in the palace? ”
She gestured to the layers of guards outside.
"Even if I know martial arts and am smart, in this deep palace compound, it shouldn't be difficult for you to trap me, right?"
Li Quan was moved by her words, he naturally understood this, he just wanted to see her on-the-spot reaction.
After all, he Li Quan is not someone who can stay by his side, if she had a little weakness just now, she would have been dead to speak here at this moment!
However, her intelligence and alertness still satisfy him, at least it is much more interesting than this Zephyr!
If it weren't for the support of the family behind him, he might not have been able to keep him until now!
"What Miss Wu said is right, but you also have to know that the palace is not as good as the outside, every step makes people walk on thin ice, and this prince has to be cautious!"
"I have no intention of getting involved in your power struggle, I just need to get the mineral deposits to help the eldest prince get real power as soon as possible, and at that time, I will be rewarded with the power and wealth I want!"
"Haha! Miss Wu is quick to talk, but she has a bit of true temperament! ”
"How can a person who does great things twist and twist! I don't know what the eldest prince thinks? ”
"Miss Wu, your idea is very dangerous!"
"I have found the upper part of the topographic map, and there will be news in the second half soon, so it depends on whether the eldest prince is interested in the mineral deposits of this rich and rival country?"
Nan Xiaowu didn't give him extra time to think about it, and said.
"Of course, if the eldest prince is afraid, I can also find someone else, anyway, there are still a lot of powerful people in the capital, isn't it?"
It wasn't until this moment that Xi Fenglie realized that she really didn't want to die! Dare to say such things to the eldest prince, it is simply instigating him to rebel!
Nan Xiaowu stretched out his hand to him: "Please also ask the eldest prince to return the topographic map in his hand to me, the affairs of the two families of King Yin should be regarded as a meeting gift to the eldest prince today!"
Li Quan looked at her fixedly, but he couldn't see her face under the veil, so he could only smile.
"Why should Miss Wu be in a hurry, since you entered the palace today, you must have come with a goal, you can find this prince, it means that this prince is your first choice, right?"
"That's right, the eldest prince is decisive, and he is one of the people I want to work with."
Nan Xiaowu deliberately didn't say too much, and accentuated the biting of the last two words, she finally said.
"There is something bad about the eldest prince, that is, he is too suspicious. Yin Shijun has someone he supports, and he will definitely not be willing to submit to the eldest prince. ”
"So, do you want this prince to arrange his own people in the position of the secretary of the military department after disposing of Yin Shijun?"
"Exactly!"
Li Quan looked at her with interest: "Then according to your opinion, who should be the most suitable to help this position?"
"The west wind is strong."
Li Quan seemed to confirm the conjecture in his heart, but he did not show agreement or disagreement.
"Lie Gongzi is one of the four major families, you chose him as the secretary of the military department, with his loyalty, you will have more protection in the future military and politics than before, right?"
Li Quan was a little surprised by her thinking, to be honest, if she really wanted to elect one person among those people, whoever chose it would not be as good as him.
The Ministry of War is the important department in charge of the military in the six ministries, if the person in this position is his person, then he will be even more comfortable in the DPRK in the future, and he will be fearless!
It's just that Xifeng Lie is too decent, and he has considered him, all because he has this ability and the strength behind him.
But he also knows that the emperor has nothing to do with him on the surface, but in fact, the growth of his power over the years has made him start to guard against him.
Just like last night, when he presented Yin Shijun's incriminating evidence to him, the result he got was only to take him into custody and await trial.
He knew in his heart that if Yin Shijun's force fell, he would still collapse with the Wang family, and the building would collapse.
In the future, there will be no one who can balance the situation in the court, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be even more bleak!
"Now in the entire court, everyone has begun to be jealous of the power of this prince, if I recommend him again at this time, I am afraid that he will be directly vetoed by the emperor."
"How about letting the emperor decide for himself?"
"Let the emperor decide for himself?"
"That's right, it's inconvenient for the eldest prince to come forward, so you can always let Prince Lie show it himself, right?"
"Miss Wu, isn't it okay for you to let me go to the emperor to behave myself in front of the emperor at this moment?"
How did he feel like there was a big pit in front of him waiting for him to jump? King Yin's two families are in the capital, although they are not very large, but they still have a fight with his Xifeng family.
Although something has happened to them now, he still can't do this kind of thing that falls behind other people's backs!
Li Quan smiled with his eyes: "If Miss Wu is a man, then it is more than enough to be a strategist by the side of this prince!"
Nan Xiaowu knew that he already knew what she meant when he heard what she said just now, but Xi Fenglie, a sluggish guy, was still looking at the two of them with a blank face...
"The eldest prince is also quick-witted, and he can understand it at one point."
"Haha, this prince really likes to chat with girls more and more! I wonder what the girl's next plan is? ”
Nan Xiaowu raised his eyebrows slightly: "The eldest prince is willing to leave the people's daughter by your side?"
Her tone was affirmative, and Li Quan did not deny her words, and smiled.
"Martial girls are so sincere, as you just said, this palace is the territory of this prince, what are you afraid of?"
