Shangguan Yuanzhi smiled: "If you can get the hearts of the people, then it is called power, we people, can't give you more help, you can only rely on yourself, this is an opportunity, that is, ...... If you really do exactly what the fifteenth prince said, you will offend people a little, I don't know if you are willing? ”

When Shangguan Yuanzhi said this, he was not making the Nine Emperor Princes retreat, but actually encouraging.

Sure enough, the temper of the Nine Emperor Princes is so rebellious, but they want to do the opposite, and said with a sneer.

"What's unwilling, in order to compete with the prince for that position, we have been preparing for so many years, and now we have walked ninety-nine steps, is there still the last step? Since you said that you can use this to make me gain the hearts of the people, then I naturally want it, and it is absolutely impossible for the prince to pick up the cheap! ”

As he spoke, he stood up, walked up to Shangguan Yuanzhi with his hands behind his back, and said in a rather proud tone.

"Speaking of this, uncle, I think this method is still very feasible, in addition to making up enough money for grain and grass, I'm afraid there are other uses, maybe it's ...... We can also take this opportunity to make a big profit! ”

When the Nine Emperor Princes said this, they were rightly arrogant, and they didn't look reluctant at all.

Shangguan Yuanzhi thought the same thing, and nodded with a smile.

"You can give it a try, but those officials are very slippery, you're afraid you won't be able to control them, besides, you are the dignified Nine Emperors, there is really no need to talk to them about these detailed matters, so, these trivial matters, I'll go."

"You just think about what to do, the fifteenth prince can come up with this method, and he is indeed a little smart, if he can, he can win over him in the future, if you have the support of your own brothers, it is also a good help."

For Shangguan Yuanzhi's similar praise, the Nine Emperor Princes naturally accepted it all, so the two of them divided their labor.

Shangguan Yuanzhi left the Nine Emperor Princes' Mansion and lobbied his own people, while the Nine Emperor Princes were pondering how to maximize the benefits of this matter.

This method works, but when it comes to actual action, it may not work, he has to rehearse and rehearse it in his heart first.

Shadow Guard, Dark Prison.

"Click."

The stone door slowly opened, and at the same time I remembered a loud sound, which was the sound of the mechanism.

When the stone door opened, a man walked in outside, still holding a torch in his hand, and entered this little secret prison.

The man threw the torch directly into the fire not far away, and for a while, the flames became stronger, and the light in this small dark prison was more sufficient, illuminating the face of the visitor, it was Mo Yi.

Mo Yi walked step by step to the middle of the dark prison, and there was a wooden pillar nailed to the ground in the center at this time, and a person was tied to the wooden pillar, it was none other than Mo Er.

Mo Er's hands were bound by iron chains and tied to the two pillars that were horizontal on the wooden pillars.

At this time, Mo Er was not as high-spirited as when he first came to the capital, his beaten skin was open, his face and body were full of injuries, and there was no good meat on his body, which made people feel shocked.

However, Mo Yi has obviously been used to all this for a long time, and his eyes have not changed when he sees Mo Er, and after coming in, standing in front of Mo Er, he only opened his mouth coldly.

"Who the hell is it? If you continue to keep your mouth shut, you will only suffer more, the methods of the shadow guard, you don't know, confess early, you can get rid as soon as possible, and, you know mine, I still have a lot of means that I haven't used, I don't want to use it on my brother, so you better hurry up. ”

As soon as Mo spoke, he was full of threats and warnings.

At this time, Mo Er slowly raised his head, he had been beaten to a human shape, and his face was also red and swollen, all in all, the whole person didn't look normal.

Ordinary people may be scared to death when they see it, and no matter how bad it is, it will be sympathy, but Mo is calm in his eyes, without any emotions at all, and he is an extremely rational person at first glance.

Mo Yi slowly opened his mouth and urged: "Speak!" ”

Mo Er finally spoke, that is, the words that came out were a little vague, but he could barely understand them.

"Mo Yi, I, what I said, all, it's all true, I really don't know anything, I, I don't know why it's like this, I really don't know."

Mo Eryi's attitude of asking three questions and not knowing obviously made Mo Yi anxious, but Mo Yi was still not angry, but smiled coldly.

"Mo Er, it's useless for you to say this in front of me, you know, I can see it, to be honest, it's better for you to be honest, you and Mo Liu, they are all fools when they talk about it, find their own guilt, rush to be a sword messenger for others, can't you serve the emperor well? Why betray the emperor? Why accept the wooing of others? ”

"Do you know that the royal shadow guard is the supreme glory, with your ability, as long as you are loyal and do not betray the emperor, the emperor will not treat you badly, although we are all Deadpool, but if you are honest and do not betray, maybe you will die with honor."

"But your double-faced behavior not only ruined yourself, but also ruined the reputation of our shadow guard, now I am giving you a chance to make amends, if you are willing to admit your mistakes, every Qingming in the future, maybe I will send someone to burn paper for you."

Hearing these words, Mo Er was a little angry, and he became excited when he spoke.

"I, I said it! I don't know anything, I was wronged, I didn't betray, as for Mo Liu...... I don't know, and all this I did was Mo Liu's trick to bewitch me, I really didn't mean it, I always listened to his, so it would make a big mistake, and I don't know about the rest. ”

The more Mo Er spoke, the clearer it became.

Mo Yi frowned, didn't say that he believed it, nor did he say that he didn't believe it, but just looked at Mo Er silently.

The two faced each other silently.

Suddenly, Mo Er's eyes flashed, as if he remembered something, and said seriously.

"By the way, I remembered, on the way back, Mo Si became the captain of the team, I think that I didn't do anything out of the ordinary along the way, except for Yue Lingjun, but in other aspects, I really didn't do anything, if you really want to be suspicious, it is better to call Mo Si together for interrogation."

"After all, from beginning to end, although Mo Si seems to have done nothing, he has really benefited, don't believe it, now that Mo Liu is dead, I am locked up and tied here for you to interrogate, but what about Mo Si? Is there nothing? That's right, it must be him, it's him! ”

The more Mo Er spoke, the more excited he became, even with a hint of stubbornness, he stared at Mo Yi with reddened eyes, with a determined face.

"Mo Yi, I don't care about others, but I only know, I definitely didn't lie, I know you have the means, but I didn't betray the emperor, why did Mo Liu say that, I really don't know, you believe me, please, let me see the emperor again, I really, I really didn't betray the emperor!"

Mo Yi had heard similar words from Mo Er at the beginning, he had never been a person who was swayed by emotions, and he was really angry when he learned that Mo Er might be a traitor.

Because the other party violated their principle of being a shadow guard, once it is confirmed that Mo Er has really betrayed, then all of their shadow guards are in danger.

Life and death are all in the emperor's thoughts, after all, Mo Er can be co-opted, why can't others?

Whether it is certain or not, whether the evidence is conclusive or not, as long as the emperor has a thought, they all have to die!

Mo Yi is naturally not afraid of death, but he also doesn't want to die so inexplicably, so he will use some means to interrogate.

It's just that Mo Er said these words, and he has to take them into account, if what the other party said is true, then this matter is interesting, for example, like what Mo Er said.

Although Mo Si seems to be low-key and has benefited silently, in fact, the person who has not suffered any sin is the most suspicious.

Mo Liu is already dead, and there is no proof of death, and Mo Er is the person Mo Liu identified before he died, and Mo Er can't die until he asks more useful information.

But Mo IV...... There is no direct evidence that he has a problem, so Mo Yi didn't do anything about Mo Si, but now listening to Mo Er's meaning, don't you have to interrogate Mo Si together and find flaws from him?

At this time, Mo Yi's ears suddenly moved, he heard a sound of footsteps, Mo Yi made a decision almost instantly, and said a cold word to Mo Er.

"Stay honest!"

After speaking, he walked quickly to the back of the torture rack next to him, and only then did he stand firmly, click, and the stone door that had just been closed opened again, and someone opened the door of the secret prison.

A tall figure appeared outside, the person who came was carrying a torch, with a cold face, Mo Yi glanced at it carefully, his eyes narrowed slightly, because the person who came was Mo Si!

Mo Yi was more careful, and even held his breath.

What a time!

Mo Yi already had a guess in his heart, but he didn't jump out and ask directly, but hid it more carefully.

Mo Er obviously also saw the person clearly, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and the tied hand couldn't help pinching, but nothing was revealed, just silent, and his eyes gradually became numb.

Mo Si walked in by himself, and the stone door behind him closed.

He threw the torch to the fire not far away, and another burst of sparks came out, and he walked towards Moji, as if he was digging for something.

Mo Yi, who was hiding behind the torture rack, remembered that he hadn't fed Mo Er the life-saving pill yet.

Mo Yi's hand is not light, but he can't let Mo Er die, so he can only give a life-saving pill after using a heavy punishment to save Mo Er's life.

Mo Si won't do anything, right?

Mo Yi couldn't help but feel a little nervous, which was a rare emotion for him, a shadow guard.

General's Palace.

Yue Lingjun was practicing guns in the courtyard, as for the people in the house, they were busy, most of the subordinates went out to buy medicinal materials and other things, Yue Lingjun had nothing to do, so he practiced swords and boxing in the courtyard, trying to calm his mind as much as possible.

After the last set of punches, he stopped his movements, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped the sweat off his face, and then noticed that the maid had something to say.

"What's wrong?"

The maid saluted respectfully.

"General, Prime Minister Lu is here, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I brought a guest, just waiting in your study."

Yue Lingjun frowned: "Why don't you come to me?" ”

This maid didn't know, and Yue Lingjun didn't ask too much, but was ready to find out by himself.

What kind of virtue does Prime Minister Lu Cheng have, Yue Lingjun knows, he came to be a guest, and he brought guests, but he didn't come to see himself, what kind of reserved? In the study, I'm afraid there is something wrong?

Yue Lingjun was almost instantly sure, today I am afraid that it is not Lu Xuanqing who wants to come to see him, but the guest, right?

Who is it......

Yue Lingjun couldn't help but recall his previous conversation with Lu Xuanqing, his eyebrows raised slightly, could it be what he thought?

Thinking of this, Yue Lingjun's pace was a little faster.

It wasn't until Yue Lingjun walked quickly to the study that he saw the figure of the young man with his back to him, and he was finally confirmed.
