Mu Jiansheng echoed and laughed a few times, and then asked, "Father-in-law Gui is asking us to go to Wutai Mountain to assassinate the old emperor?" Xiang Yan sighed in his heart and said, "If this news is leaked to the little emperor, he can't be indifferent and ignore it!" Even if he doesn't take the old emperor into the palace, he always has to go to Wutai Mountain from time to time to meet his father to show filial piety! Didn't King Mu's Mansion break into the palace a few days ago and prepare to assassinate the little emperor? The palace is heavily guarded, and it is very difficult to assassinate the little emperor. But if the little emperor goes out of the palace, it will be a tiger going down the mountain, and it will be much easier to kill him again. ”

Mu Jiansheng nodded and said, "Yes, it is easier to assassinate the little emperor in Wutai Mountain than to assassinate the little emperor in the palace." A look of worry appeared on his face. Xiang Yan saw that Mu Jiansheng's face was wrong, and wondered in his heart that Mu Wangfu had lost too much in the palace, and now his strength was insufficient? Busy said: "Actually, there is another advantage to killing the little emperor, the little emperor can't go alone to visit the old emperor in Wutai Mountain, he will definitely bring a group of important ministers of the court to go together." Those important ministers of the court did not protect the emperor well, let the emperor die by assassination, and when the new emperor ascended the throne, there would definitely be no good fruit to eat. And the queen mother assassinated the old emperor's favorite concubine because of jealousy and forced the old emperor away, but she was afraid that the new emperor would not be able to tolerate her. ”

Mu Jiansheng said with a smile: "What Xiang Gonggong said is right, the first thing the new emperor did after he ascended the throne was to purge the empress dowager who forced the old emperor away and those ministers who did not protect the little emperor, and the Tartar court must be in civil strife." Xiang Yan shook his head and said: "Civil strife is not enough, civil war is needed." Now the little emperor has not appointed a crown prince, and the princes are also very small, so they cannot stabilize the situation. If you can provoke various princes to compete for the throne and cause a civil war, the opportunity for the Ming Dynasty will come. ”

At the beginning, in order to join the Heaven and Earth Society, Xiang Yan deliberately thought hard about two ideas and thought that he was the step to enter the body. But Xiang Yan has never met anyone from the Heaven and Earth Society other than Wei Xiaobao, so he dedicated one of them to Mu Wangfu.

Mu Jiansheng also became excited, and said, "See your father-in-law." Now that the Tartars are powerful, it is not easy to expel them. Only when they fight themselves and get into internal chaos can they be defeated. By the way, Xianggong Xiang, do you know where the old emperor of Tartar is in Wutai Mountain? Xiang Yan was ashamed and said, "I don't know." He hurriedly said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if the old emperor is in Wutai Mountain or not, as long as the little emperor believes that he is there."

Xiang Yan thought dejectedly: "Alas, if I had known that I would have ascended to the world of "The Legend of the Deer and Ding" one day, I would have memorized all the punctuation marks of the "The Legend of the Deer and Ding" when I was alive, but who would have thought that I would have today?" I can remember that Shunzhi was already good in Wutai Mountain, but as for where he was in Wutai Mountain, I really can't remember. ”

Mu Jiansheng nodded and said, "It is reasonable to say to the father-in-law." After speaking, he hurriedly said goodbye to Xiang Yan. Xiang Yan was stunned for a moment, and his heart was quite uncomfortable: "They actually didn't take a fancy to me?" Didn't invite me to join Muwangfu? Fortunately, Mao 18 agreed to accept me as an apprentice, otherwise I would have nowhere to stay after I left the palace. ”

The next day, Kangxi suddenly said to Wei Xiaobao and Xiang Yan: "Little Guizi, little Xiangzi, I heard a rumor that my father did not die, but became a monk in Wutai Mountain. The two of you will go to Wutai Mountain to verify the truth of this rumor. Xiang Yan was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he struggled back to his residence, picked up the teapot and poured tea for himself, his hands trembled, and all the tea was poured on the table.

Wei Xiaobao took the teapot, poured a cup of tea, handed it to Xiang Yan, and asked, "Xiaoyan, what's wrong with you?" Xiang Yan drank all the tea and said with tears in his eyes: "Xiaobao, I'm going to die." Wei Xiaobao was shocked and said, "What's wrong?" Fang Yi and the little county lord also looked at Xiang Yan with worried expressions.

Xiang Yan said: "Yesterday, the little grandfather came to see me. I told him that the old emperor was a monk in Wutai Mountain, and as a result, today the little emperor asked us to go to Wutai Mountain to check the news of the old emperor. Fang Yi was shocked and said, "You mean there are spies in King Mu's mansion?" Wei Xiaobao said: "You don't have to worry very much, maybe the emperor got the news from other places!" Otherwise, why didn't the emperor catch Xiaoyan? Xiang Yan and Fang Yi's faces were still not good-looking.

Wei Xiaobao said to Xiang Yan: "Anyway, Brother Mao also promised to accept you as an apprentice, and he will take you back to Taizhou to apprentice in the next few days." It just so happened that the emperor asked us to go to Wutai Mountain to find out the news of the old emperor, so you should take this opportunity to go back to Taizhou with Brother Mao! As long as you go to Taizhou, you don't have to be afraid of anything. Xiang Yan nodded, "Hmm".

Wei Xiaobao said to Fang Yi again: "Miss Fang, the emperor sent me to Wutai Mountain to check the whereabouts of the old emperor, and Xiao Yan also wants to take refuge in Taizhou with Brother Mao, I'm afraid you won't be able to recuperate here." How are your injuries now? Can you get out of the palace? Fang Yi said: "My injuries have healed a lot, and I can leave the palace." If Brother Xiang is betrayed, then most of the spies in King Mu's mansion will be there. I have to remind the little grandfather to pay attention to the inside, I can't stay here for long. Wei Xiaobao said: "Okay, I'll send you out of the palace now." Xiao Yan, you also clean up, let's go find Brother Mao immediately. ”
