Gu Wu was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and asked, "Is the county lord saying to let Yao Xiang handle state affairs?" ”

"It's only been a few days, and you say that your father's illness is urgent, and he doesn't have the strength to hold the pen, leaving only a word of instruction." Konoha didn't explain much, just told Guwu what to do.

Guwu obediently took the order.

Konoha glanced at Mu Yicheng, who was already paralyzed on the rosewood chair, in disgust, according to her original thoughts, she should have killed Mu Yicheng directly.

As soon as Mu Yicheng died, the only one who was qualified to succeed to the throne was Mu Beimo.

Of course, there will be suspicious voices, and Konoha was originally ready to bear the charge and be killed by Mu Beimo to help him prove his innocence.

But Mu Beimo rejected this method, for various reasons, Mu Beimo did not intend to kill his father, so he needed to use the abdication edict to justify his succession.

After all, the abdication of the old king and the accession of the new king to the throne are not only Xiling's state affairs, but also the private affairs of the Xiling royal family.

And by doing so, it can ensure that Mu Beimo's side does not have to be killed, he only needs to use some benefits to impress Mu Yicheng's cronies, such as Du Zheng and Gu Wu.

Konoha admired Mu Beimo very much, and after hearing her suggestion, it only took a very short time to think about the pros and cons, and immediately chose a method that was less expensive and safer.

She herself would never come up with such a solution, in her opinion, if she didn't kill Mu Yicheng, she would never leave Mu Yicheng a way to live.

In matters related to the court situation, Konoha knew that Mu Beimo was far more thorough than herself, so she was determined to do it according to Mu Beimo's arrangement, rather than acting rashly.

Konoha clapped his hands, and Du Zheng, who was guarding the door, immediately put a few dumb slaves from the East Palace in. Konoha pointed to Mu Yicheng, who was already unconscious, and motioned for several people to carry him to the dragon couch.

She herself sat in front of Mu Yicheng's bookcase and wrote a letter to Mu Beimo, saying that Sheng Jing's every matter was being done in an orderly manner.

Today she learned that Mu Yicheng's henchmen were all good friends with the East Palace, if it weren't for the fact that Mu Beimo had been so kind to them before, she would never have been able to win over the two of them in such a short period of time and let them betray Mu Yicheng.

Especially Guwu, as the personal chief eunuch, Konoha originally thought that money, fame and fortune could not impress him, but he didn't expect him to simply throw himself into Mu Beimo without hesitation.

As the chief eunuch in the palace, although Guwu's status is not high, from courtiers to maids, no one is courteous to him. Because he was Mu Yicheng's close attendant and served him closely, those people took it for granted that he was Mu Yicheng's confidant.

But he himself knows that a companion is like a tiger, and it is just a warning to others, but for him, it is something that happens every day.

Although Mu Yicheng is not a Ming monarch, he is not a faint monarch, but he believes in the emperor's mind very much, and he is ruthless to anyone, whether it is a favorite concubine or an only son, anyone who poses a threat to him will be mercilessly eliminated by him.

Even the mother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Mu Yicheng personally said that the first queen was the love of his life, and he was not sent away by a white silk given by him.

Mu Yicheng has no remorse about this, and he doesn't even bother to make a show of the superficial reminiscences.

This is true for the beloved, let alone a eunuch without roots.

So when he heard that Mu Ye promised that after Mu Beimo succeeded to the throne, he would still be the head manager, Guwu agreed without hesitation.

Mu Beimo is Mu Yicheng's only son, but his temperament is different from his father, Mu Beimo has his own set of methods of employing people, he is very strict, but he will give enough benefits, as long as he does not have two hearts, Mu Beimo will never be unreasonably suspicious.

But if it was a betrayal, Mu Beimo's methods were even more ruthless than his father's.

Even so, Gu Wu would rather go to Mu Beimo's side to do things, at least it is better than being by Mu Yicheng's side every minute and every second.

What's more, it was Konoha who came in person.

Gu Wu was one of the very few people who knew that Yao Xiang and Wang Shang were determined to let Konoha die on the battlefield, and he even knew that Mu Yicheng had no blood relationship with Konoha from the beginning, and just wanted to use her.

Konoha only led 10,000 men to fight against 50,000 Nanwan troops, of which 30,000 were still the most elite Lieyue army; Han Lin cut off her retreat and cut off the supply of military rations; even colluded with Nanwan to trap Konoha in Tanglong Valley.

These real military intelligence reports all know that even if he doesn't know about leading troops to fight, he knows that even if the god of war in the sky comes, there is probably nothing he can do.

But Konoha was not only safe and sound, but even let most of the Danchen army get out of the battlefield.

In addition, Mu Ye also won Mu Beimo's trust, and even Mu Beimo was relieved to hand over such a life-and-death matter as forcing the palace to her.

Such people with great skills are willing to do things for Mu Beimo, but you can imagine how powerful His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Xiling is.

Guwu couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

After arriving at Yao's Mansion, the person who reported it only went in for a while, and Yao Hongzhi personally greeted him: "Why did Master Gu come suddenly, but the king announced me?" ”

Gu Wu smiled on his face: "Prime Minister, the king remembers your hard work these days, and sent a minister to send you some supplements." ”

Yao Hongzhi is such a human being, he knows such a trivial matter as sending supplements, and he will not send Guwu to come, there must be something else, but it is inconvenient to tell him in the way of mobilizing the people.

"Master Gu is working hard, please come with me to the study and sit for a while."

Gu Wu still had a respectful smile on his face, followed Yao Hongzhi and went to the study.

After Yao Hong ordered someone to prepare tea and snacks, he sent out all the unrelated people.

After everyone left, Yao Hong asked directly, "What's the matter, my lord?" ”

The smile on Gu Wu's face disappeared almost instantly, and he was replaced by a worried expression: "Prime Minister, after going down to the court today, I don't know what happened, the king suddenly fell ill. This illness came suddenly, and the king only left a message before he fell into a coma, asking the prince to preside over the government and handle state affairs before the king was healthy. ”

Yao Hongzhi's brows furrowed fiercely, twisted into a "Chuan" character: "Have you called the imperial doctor to see it, is there a big problem with the dragon body on the king?" ”

"The imperial doctor said that the king was too tired these days, and the illness was sudden. It may take a few days to wake up. Guwu replied according to Konoha's explanation.

Yao Hongzhi sighed: "My king has worked so hard, I am really ashamed. ”

Then he changed his words: "I just heard from the East Palace, His Royal Highness the Prince's injuries have been much better these days, why didn't the king ask His Highness to deal with it, and let the old minister help His Highness?" ”

Gu Wu's face suddenly showed nervousness, looked left and right, although there was no one, he still approached Yao Hongzhi, covered his mouth with his hand, and replied in a low voice: "Prime Minister, isn't this that Konoha didn't have results at that time?" The king was afraid that His Highness would be impulsive, so he did not ask His Highness to supervise the country, and he did not even tell the East Palace the news that the king was sick. ”

Yao Hongzhi is also worried about this matter these days, there is no news from the dark line of the Winter Pass and Han Lin, and he doesn't know if Konoha died in the hands of Su Muyu.

And the assassination of the king during the spring festival a few days ago also made him feel uneasy.

Listening to Guwu's explanation, Yao Hong believed most of it. He shook his robe and knelt down in the direction of the palace: "Your Excellency, rest assured, the old minister will live up to His Majesty's trust." ”

Guwu didn't stay much, and after accepting the ten taels of gold given by Yao Hongzhi, he left Yao's mansion.

After he left, Yao Hongzhi pondered for a long time in his study, and then sent someone to bring Yao Mao over.

"What does the father tell him when he summons his son?" Although Yao Mao was recognized by Yao Hong when he was young, Yao Hong treated him as his own, but he always treated his "father" with an excessively respectful attitude.

Yao Hongzhi said with a serious face: "You immediately send a message to the palace and ask the concubine what is the big thing in the palace today." ”

"Yes! My son will go. Yao Mao didn't ask much, and immediately went down to do this.

Yao Hong thought of finding out the truth of this news through the eldest daughter in the palace, and Gu Wu also thought of it.

He realized that the county lord of Konoha asked Yao Hongzhi to temporarily lead the government in order to make him lower his vigilance, but she seemed to have forgotten that there was a person named Yao Guifei in the palace.

That Guwu must have reminded her, if Yao Hong really saw the flaws and ruined His Royal Highness the Prince's plan, he would inevitably be treated as a traitor.

He suddenly thought that when he was called into the dormitory by Konoha, Mu Yicheng had not yet lost consciousness.

Mu Yicheng saw his surrender to Konoha and knew about his betrayal.

This caused his retreat to be completely cut off, and even if he planned to work at both ends, Mu Yicheng would never let him live again.

The only one who can shelter him is Mu Beimo.

He didn't dare to think about whether this was Konoha's unintentional move or deliberate.

After returning to the palace, Guwu didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went to Konoha: "Your Royal Highness, the prime minister has no suspicions. ”

Konoha nodded, indicating that he understood.

She has regarded Mu Yicheng's dormitory as her temporary study, and the table is full of information sent by Du Zheng and all the leaders of the forbidden army, and she is flipping through them one by one.

Gu Wu took out the ten taels of gold from his sleeve and presented them to Konoha with both hands: "This is a bribe he gave to the villain, and the villain does not dare to hide it privately, so he will hand it over to His Highness." ”

Konoha waved his hand disappreciatively: "You can use it." ”

There was a hint of impatience in her tone, and someone like Guwu who was thinking about people's hearts every day could naturally hear it, and he knew that it was Konoha who told him to step down.

But he left without interest: "Your Highness, the villain still has something to tell." ”

Hearing this, Konoha raised his eyes and looked at him, and Guwu said euphemistically: "Your Highness, the king is sick for such a big event, and the high-ranking concubines in the harem are going to serve the sick." The prime minister's eldest daughter is none other than Yao Guifei in the harem. ”

Konoha was stunned, she actually forgot about Yao Lin's sister.

Gu Wu looked at her silently, and cautiously tested: "Let's ······ Yao Guifei"

He knew that Konoha and Yao Hongzhi had always been at odds, so he wasn't sure what Konoha would do with Yao Guifei, after all, the forbidden army was already under her command, and if she wanted to kill, she couldn't leave a word.

Konoha had never seen this as Yao Guifei, but he often heard Yao Lin talk about it, and knew that Yao Lin and her sister had a very good relationship.

She thought for a moment: "Concubine Yao has been sick for a few days, and she was asked to come to serve the sick, and it would be bad if she gave her illness to her father." Let her be born in her own palace to recuperate. ”

Gu Wu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that Konoha didn't plan to kill Yao Guifei, but just asked someone to look at her and not report to Yao's mansion.

It's just a matter of opinion, and it's hard to grasp the depths.
