Chapter 365: The so-called regent

Recently, he has been more or less promoted and rewarded, and General Mu was dissatisfied, and he was favored by the people of the big family in the capital, so he had other ideas.

This General Mu himself has the heart to make war exploits, and he also has the heart to serve Chen Mu, but because Chen Mu considered that the mobilization of troops and horses would take time and food, so he did not let him go on the expedition.

It was precisely because of this that General Namu misunderstood Chen Mu and thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had the intention of targeting him and suppressing his own forces.

There are some people in the big families in the capital who are dissatisfied because of Chen Mu's reform measures during this time, and all kinds of government decrees have been issued, and the interests in the hands of those big families have been touched.

Although Chen Mu had not yet seized the power in their hands, in order to avoid being deprived of the authority in their hands in the future, those family members were still preparing to overthrow Chen Mu after some planning.

They did not intend to overthrow the Great Xia Dynasty directly, but planned to force the emperor to change the crown prince.

"Although there is no more suitable candidate to be the prince in the court besides you, but those people in the family have discussed it carefully, and they feel that even if they don't set up a prince, they can set up a regent."

"Hold the Emperor's power in check, and at the same time keep the regent on their side and keep the power in their hands."

As for the candidate for the so-called regent, it is naturally General Mu.

Such a good thing was sent to him, not only did he have the right to control it, but also those people in the family used it for him, and General Namu naturally responded to this matter immediately.

Because of the frequent battles some time ago, but the soldiers and horses in his hands were not lost, General Namu thought that he had something to rely on.

He can use his soldiers and horses against the border soldiers, and even bring troops into the city.

"He originally planned to plan and arrange, and planned a rebellion with the people of the ten major clans in the capital, so that he could immediately bring troops into the city."

"But those people in the big families are more cunning, they think about it, although General Mu has a lot of soldiers and horses in his hands, but if you want to feel the capital from the border, I am afraid it is not so easy to attract your attention."

"Therefore, after some discussion, they decided to first shake and rebel against the garrisons of several counties around the capital, and then use the strength of those garrisons to contain the forces of the capital and buy time for General Mu to enter the city."

"Of course, they will also give you trouble during this time to restrain your energy."

The plan was carried out layer by layer, and those people in the family first caused trouble to contain Chen Mu, so that Chen Mu had no intention of paying attention to the rebellion of the soldiers and horses in the barracks.

Then those barracks and horses entered the city to contain the Imperial Forest Army stationed in the capital, and other soldiers and horses, so as to gain the opportunity for General Mu to enter the city.

Those people in the big families are good at calculating.

If it weren't for his private visit and knowing about this incident by mistake, he was afraid that he would have been calculated by those people.

But then again, if the people in the big families really wanted to create chaos to attract his attention, he would probably still notice that something was wrong.

After all, he is not a vegetarian, and he has already installed a lot of people in the court, including people from families and children from poor families, some have just entered the court as officials, and some have served in the court for many years.

As soon as there was a change in the people of those great families, these people would tell themselves their intentions, and now they had detected that something was wrong before there was any change in those great families.

Then the next step is to collect and sort out the evidence and solve those people in the big family.

Now that he has caught Lord Xu and knows about the barracks, the next step is to collect General Qian and the general behind him, as well as the soldiers who fled from the barracks, into his own hands.

Then use these horses to suppress the military camp that has been rebelled.

At the same time, it will buy time for him to return to the capital and capture those people from the big family.

Since it is to contain each other, it is natural to have the manpower of people who can contain the military camp, Chen Mu thought about it and nodded secretly,

He glanced up in the direction of Lord Xu, then hooked his lips and sneered, and he said slowly.

"Lord Xu, to be honest, today's incident is really a coincidence, if I hadn't seen you in that barracks, I wouldn't have known that there was such a big game of chess behind this."

"There are even border garrisons involved...... Now, if you tell me all this, it can be regarded as a meritorious achievement, I will not kill you, and as for the people of your Xu clan, I will not kill you. ”

"But the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped, if in the future, you and the people of your Xu clan can cooperate with my plan, then for the mistakes you made before, I can still consider considering lenient treatment."

Seeing Chen Mu say this, Lord Xu's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately understood what Chen Mu meant, and Lord Xu nodded in response.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, if there is anything you need me to do, I will do my best! Just for ...... I just want to fight for a glimmer of life for the people of our Xu clan, even if it is for me to lose my life, I am willing. ”

Although Lord Xu was afraid of death, in comparison, he was more afraid that the people of the Xu clan would be dragged down by this incident and be beheaded all over the house.

Seeing Lord Xu like this, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows, then nodded in response, glanced at the dark guard, and asked the dark guard to lead the person into the side hall.

Chen Mu was going to let people heal the injuries on Lord Xu's body first, and then send Lord Xu to the capital, he was ready to use Lord Xu's bait to catch the big fish behind the plot of rebellion.

While he was planning in his heart, Chen Mu suddenly heard a small sound from the edge of the courtyard wall.

He glanced up in the direction where the voice had come from, and saw several secret guards rushing over the courtyard wall and in his direction.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we have found other things in that barracks, which are related to the decree issued by the court and the central government in the recent period."

Hearing the dark guards say this, Chen Mu was stunned, and immediately came back to his senses, he nodded and agreed, took a few letters from the hands of those dark guards, and frowned.

He opened the letter and looked at it carefully, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.

He didn't expect that in the letter, in addition to the matter of the government decree, there was also news related to Li Mao's arrest and the loss of the textile equipment drawings, Chen Mu frowned.

"These people saw the value of the textile equipment, and actually planned to use the textile equipment to collect money among the people and lay the foundation for their own rebellion plan."

Rebellion requires silver.

Those big families in Beijing are rich and flowing, but they are reluctant to give their silver to that General Mu for nothing, helping him to become this rebellion.

When they heard that a young man had entered the capital with a magical device, which could also improve the efficiency of textile fabrics, they came up with the idea of a textile device.
