"It's that the Heavenly Master's Mansion is indeed against the will of some old ministers, and wants to promote the current crown prince as the future emperor of the Great Yan Dynasty. But in fact, this is the emperor's own meaning, so this is not that the Heavenly Master's Mansion has to interfere with the succession of the emperor's heir. The old prime minister explained.

Shen Muwan scratched her head and listened a little nonsense, "You mean that it is the emperor's idea to let the crown prince inherit the throne?" ”

"Yes! It's just that the emperor is now sick, and even the early dynasty has a weak heart, so the Heavenly Master's Mansion insists on the emperor's opinion. But now General Chi Da, who has a heavy army, and some radical ministers want to support King Rui, so the two sides have become what they are now. The old prime minister took a sip of tea before slowly explaining.

"What about you, old prime minister? Do you think it is more appropriate to inherit the throne, the crown prince or the king of Rui? Shen Muwan's dark eyes flashed with a little starlight, and a pair of eyes were as bright as stars in the night.

Yan Xiang frowned and thought for a long time, and finally spoke, "The crown prince is indeed too stubborn as they say, to be honest, if the crown prince inherits the throne, it will really be a blessing in disguise for Dayan." But after all, the crown prince is the orthodoxy of the emperor's own title, and he ......" and there are obviously words later, but he just bit it and didn't say it, but changed the topic.

"As for King Rui, King Rui is loyal, and his character is much better than that of the prince, but his character is too weak, if he becomes the emperor, although Dayan will not be destroyed, it should not have much development. And in this way, he will definitely offend the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and it will be difficult to clean up things at that time, so this is also the reason why the old man has not supported King Rui all the time. ”

The old man is really treacherous, and he says half swallowing and half swallowing, which makes you hear some questions, but he also speaks very vaguely, which makes you a little confused. However, Shen Muwan still heard that the reason why the Heavenly Master's Mansion desperately supported the crown prince did not seem to be just because of the emperor's wishes, there must be other reasons.

And if King Rui ascends the throne, the disadvantage is also obvious, the Heavenly Master's Mansion will not be with the court from now on, which will also lead to terrible consequences. That consequence is even more dangerous than helping a person like the crown prince who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun to ascend to the throne.

Because for a country, the responsibility of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is not only to subdue demons and catch ghosts, but also to a large extent to play a certain deterrent role for other countries.

Once the Heavenly Master Mansion of the Great Yan Dynasty no longer helps the court, the Heavenly Master Mansion of other countries may use some immortal tricks against the Great Yan, which is impossible to prevent. After all, although it is stipulated that people in the Immortal Sect are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of Hongchen, there are also many immortal cultivators, for their own glory and wealth, or for some personal reason, they only care about the present and are not afraid of being entangled by cause and effect.

Just like the Great Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, she knew that interfering with the succession of the imperial heir would have to bear the great cause and effect, which would likely lead to a great reduction in cultivation, but she still insisted on going her own way, which is the best example.

Shen Muwan couldn't help but look at the old man in front of her, before she heard what General Chi said, she felt that he was starting from the overall situation and wanted to choose a suitable heir to inherit the unification, which was good for the Dayan Dynasty. Even wanted to support him for a while and help him fight against the Heavenly Master's Mansion.

But now listening to the old prime minister's words, I suddenly feel that the old prime minister also has his reasons, and it is really as he said, then this is indeed a dilemma. I believe that the emperor knows that the crown prince is not the first choice of Renjun, but still chooses the prince as the heir to the throne, and he should think about it similar to the old prime minister.

Shen Muwan lowered her eyes and thought about it, then raised her eyes, and the color in her eyes became darker, "Old Prime Minister, can you tell me if you think I should help General Chi with this?"

I'm really embarrassed to hear you say that, and I don't think it's right to help or not. I really think it's a good way for the old man to avoid him. ”

Yan Xiang's eyebrows twitched when he heard her say this, obviously knowing that Shen Muwan saw through that he was not really sick, but that he was using his illness to avoid the wrestling between the two sides.

Yan Xiang shook his head, "The old man hasn't even figured out which side he should stand on now, so how can he give you advice to Lord Shen Feng?" After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at Yan Hanze, and there seemed to be something hidden in his eyes.

Shen Muwan squinted her eyes, and said pretending to be profound, "Why do you think that the old prime minister can't choose, but doesn't want to choose any!" ”

Yan Xiang's expression, which had always been sick, suddenly became sharp after listening to Shen Muwan's words, and the momentum above one person in the court seemed to show a corner, but he was quickly pressed back again. "Heh, Lord Shen Feng said with a smile, what can the old man do if he doesn't choose one of the two?"

"I don't know this seat, I just listened to what the old prime minister said, neither of them is the best choice, but after all, this seat has lived in a barren mountain for a long time, and I don't know anything about the affairs of the court, so I took the liberty to listen to Yan Xiang's opinion today, for fear that I would ruin a big thing because of my shallowness." Shen Muwan looked like a child, but the words he said were very old-fashioned.

Yan Xiang couldn't help but look at this master of the peak who looked like a child again.

As for Shen Muwan, he sent someone to investigate after listening to the report of the secret agent last night, and the reputation among the immortals is good and bad, some people say that she is quite unreasonable, disrespectful, and domineering. Some people also say that she single-handedly turned the tide and saved Xianmen from fire and water.

The old man is also a person who has been through ups and downs for a long time, and he knows that he can't just hear about people, so today's meeting with Shen Muwan was mostly a temptation, but he didn't expect that he didn't try out her bottom but was almost turned out by this little girl.

However, he also understood that the Lord of the First Peak in front of him was by no means a simple character, and he was more interested in her apprentice, if it was really that person......

"Lord Shen Feng is really humble, and the old man has already heard of your deeds, and he admires him very much!" Yan Xiang said very sincerely.

Shen Muwan saw that the old man was reluctant to go deeper, and he didn't want to ask any more questions, so he took his disciples to say goodbye first.

Yan Xiang sent a carriage to send them back to the inn, and several people entered the inn and closed the door before they breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Oops! I'm really tired, that old man is an old fritter, he always talks half and leaves half and half leaves, so that you can listen to half nonsense and half understand. The most sad thing is that it is still so ink, like a ball of cotton, so that you have nowhere to focus. No wonder he has been in the officialdom for so many years, and he has been sitting in this position now, this Tai Chi is too good. Shen Muwan entered the room and lay down on the bed without image, and said with his back facing the sky.

"The senior said it well, but the little monk was more curious about his attention to Brother Yan. I always feel that he looks at Brother Yan with an unusual expression, as if he knows each other. "Wuhua is always observant and can see things that others can't.

"He should know my mother, especially when he looks at my token and asks me about my birthday, which means this, but why doesn't he say anything? Is it my mother's relationship with him or is there any relationship between them? Yan Hanze has always been most concerned about his own life experience.

He may not have been so eager before, but since he entered Shen Muwan's dream and saw the demonized Xuanji Sect himself in the dream, he was eager to find his life experience and relatives.

He wanted to find out if he was a member of the demon clan after all, and whether he could get rid of the demon root, if he couldn't if he turned into the way his master dreamed and injured his master like that, then he would rather choose to cut himself off.

If he really needs to go that far, he can't get too close to Shizun now, he used to be afraid that Shizun would be too ruthless to himself, afraid that he wouldn't get Shizun's heart, but now he is afraid that Shizun is too affectionate to himself, and when he encountered danger again and again, Shizun stood in front of him.

If he really turns into the demon lord in his dreams in the end, what will Shizun do to himself? If she still defends him like that, the entire Xianmen will not let her go, wouldn't she hurt her master?

This is also why he deliberately chose the carriage farthest away from Shen Muwan when he took the carriage today, and even when he sat down at the end, he sat the farthest away from her.

He was deliberately alienating her.

Shen Muwan's brain at this time was all used on the things that Lao Cheng kept for them, and she didn't notice that Yan Hanze's mood at this time was not quite right, she always felt that the part that Lao Cheng didn't say was the key to the whole thing.

"Do you think that according to what the old prime minister said today, who will he choose to stand in line in the end?" Shen Muwan suddenly said.

"I feel that he should be on the side of the crown prince, just because most of the ministers in the court support King Rui, and he doesn't want to offend so many people, so he calls it sick and avoids these. When the Heavenly Master's Mansion helped the crown prince seize the throne, although he was not a supporter, at least he did not object. With his position, he has no merit and will maintain the status quo in the end. Chi Zhong said.

Obviously, he was instructed by his father, but from his words, Shen Muwan also heard that General Chi should have guessed or knew about the old minister's illness.

"I don't think this Yan Xiang's pattern will be so small, if that's really the case, he won't be able to sit in this position today. I always felt like he was waiting or expecting something. Wuhua said softly as she twisted her rosary slowly.

Shen Muwan looked at Wuhua and then at Yan Hanze, "It seems that we don't have to sleep tonight!" ”
