Mu Sheng has been here for seven years, he just sent away the officials appointed by the county order to comfort him, the guards came to report, and a ranger came to visit, Mu Shengxin, how many times have he come? Someone came to join him? But think about it, with his current financial resources of 100,000 households, it is not very difficult to raise a large number of customers who eat idle meals.

Mu Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to greet the door in person, only to see someone at the door leading a horse, wearing a hat, a scarf wrapped around his face, and a strong suit.

Mu Sheng went up and arched his hand: "The chivalrous man came from afar, why don't you show your true face?" ”

The visitor sighed and took off the hat, removed the face towel, and said, "Childe is me!" ”

The person who came was Feng Wei, who was once a doorman who Gongzi Sheng focused on cultivating when he was in power, but later saw that Gongzi Sheng was losing power, and then switched to An Guojun's mansion.

Seeing him here, Mu Sheng wanted to say a few words of sarcasm, but after thinking about it, forget it, who is not a sage or sage, even if it is himself, think about it from his own position, when he encounters the situation after falling out of favor at that time, if he is Feng Wei, he will climb another high branch, and follow a leader who obviously has no future at all, and it will do no harm to himself.

When Mu Sheng first came out of college, he worked in a company like this, the company saw that it was not good, the capable employees ran early, and the basic people who did not run were mediocre, they had no ability, no way, and no better employment opportunities, so they could only sink down with the company and the leaders.

Putting away his thoughts, Mu Sheng stepped forward and said: "It turned out to be you, come here, I haven't had a friend here for a long time, you came just in time, Ben Hou wants to set up a banquet to entertain you." ”

When Feng Wei heard this, he was a little moved in his heart, Gongzi was still the son of the past, and he did not neglect himself in the slightest, he was polite to Mu Sheng, and then entered the door, all the way to the lobby of this Anle Waiting Mansion.

Feng Wei looked left and right along the way and said, "Childe, you are almost ready to catch up with the palace in this house now!" ”

When Mu Sheng heard this, he smiled and said, "Enhao, Your Majesty rewards." ”

After the guests and hosts were seated, Mu Sheng ordered the servants to serve exquisite wine and food.

After Feng Wei thanked him, Mu Sheng asked, "Feng Wei, why did you come to me if you didn't do a good job in the capital?" ”

Feng Wei sighed and said, "Gongzi really doesn't hide it, I have already resigned, and now I don't work in the Anguo Monarch's Mansion." ”

Mu Shengqi said: "Why is this? You come to me with a great future, isn't it a pity that An Guojun is not a competent candidate for the next prince. ”

When Feng Wei heard this, he bowed his hand to Mu Sheng and said, "It was actually Lao Wu's idea for me to defect to An Guojun, and you also know that I have a lot of relationship with Mr. Wu. ”

Mu Sheng frowned and said, "Didn't Mr. Wu go back to his hometown to farm?" Hasn't Mr. Wu given up yet? ”

Feng Wei bowed slightly: "Mr. Wu has indeed not given up, he is still staying in the capital for Gongzi Pu on the road to the throne, Gongzi, you may not know, Mr. Wu was the top boss of the county in Zhuo County back then, the county guard Zhao Shu Zhao, this time you understand!" ”

Mu Sheng suddenly realized in his heart, so it is so, no wonder he has just been crowned king, and there is a great talent like Mr. Wu to defect, it turns out that the cheap uncle and Wu Xie have long been all the way, I really didn't expect it, so it seems that Zhao Shu is actually planning to push him up.

Mu Sheng said: "I understand, it turns out that you have been operating behind the scenes?" ”

Feng Wei bowed slightly: "Yes, I hope Gongzi doesn't mind that we have been hiding things from you." ”

Mu Sheng waved his hand, it doesn't matter, his heart is now like this, he has become a boat, there is nothing good, he is lying flat, but the people behind him are still unwilling and can understand.

Feng Wei said nothing, and suddenly walked over and knelt down on one knee and said to Gongzi Sheng: "Childe, please forgive me for hiding my true identity from Gongzi for so long......"

Mu Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?" ”

Feng Wei said: "Childe, I am the strange person that Mr. Wu rescued from prison back then. ”

When Mu Sheng heard this, he was surprised: "What? Are you Guo Huan's own brother, Guo Jue? Didn't you kill yourself? ”

Feng Wei said with a smile: "Harm, it's better to die than to live, suicide is just to cover people's eyes, and it is also to prevent the Moying Gate from cleaning up me, a so-called traitor, so I have to make this decision." ”

After that, Feng Wei took off the human skin mask on his face, revealing a strange face, his appearance was a little similar to Guo Huan, and he didn't run away, this is Guo Huan's younger brother Guo Xuan.

Guo Jue sighed and said: "I didn't expect my brother to actually take refuge in the prince, now the prince's party has been executed, after the prince's defeat, my brother's whereabouts are unknown, there is news that my eldest brother may have crossed the sea and absconded to Donghai County, so I came here to find my eldest brother, and by the way, come to see if you are okay." ”

Mu Sheng sighed with emotion: "En! I didn't expect that it has only been a few years since I was already a man or a person, thinking of the fourth brother, the prince, I really didn't expect him to rebel? By the way, Guo Jue, what happened to the prince? I was in a hurry, and I didn't know what was going on......"

Guo Jue sighed: "The prince rebelled against the party in the Taiji Palace after the defeat and fled to the east, the court was responsible for exterminating the prince's remnants of the army, they fled to the vicinity of Huai'an County, Hedong County, deceived the city gate to imprison the curtain of the county order, according to the city and defended, they are also very powerful, actually besieged by tens of thousands of troops for more than 20 years before being breached Huai'an County, the prince and the remnants of the party saw that the general trend has gone, they all surrendered, the court captured the prince and all his cronies, the prince was escorted back to Beijing to await trial, the prince himself was ordered by the emperor to die, The prince's family was demoted to a concubine and sent to serve hard labor in the clouds. ”

"The cronies around the prince, Liu Yu, Qin Shao, Cai Ying and others were sentenced to be beheaded in the waist, and Cui Yan and Cui Xiangguo were also sentenced to be beheaded, but His Majesty remembered that the elders of his two dynasties, loyal to the country, were just coerced by the prince's chaotic party, so he changed the sentence to suicide, even if he left a whole body for Cui Xiangguo, and did not harm his family, he was the best person in the prince's party.

Mu Sheng's heart was cold when he heard this, the prince's fate was miserable enough, Guo Xuan's understatement, almost thousands of officials and their families died before and after......

But he knew that the thousands of people who were affected by the plant were all living people, this is the bloody and cruel truth, they are just victims of the power struggle, and even some people have suffered from the disaster at all, and they don't know what happened, but the family members participated in the rebellion and were dragged to the guillotine.

This is the human tragedy caused by the struggle for the throne in the era of imperial power, power is like the fruit of the devil, and the benefits it brings are too tempting to attract wolves to surround it, and it is enough for careerists to gamble on their lives to fight for it.

Thinking of this, Mu Sheng said: "Guo Jue, why don't you go and persuade Wu Xie and my uncle to stop, it's still too late, there's no need to gamble on the whole family's life to fight for that possibility?" ”

Guo Jue pointed to the human skin mask on the table, and said: "Thank you Gongzi for your concern, I have no problem, but I can't persuade Lao Zhao and Lao Wu, they are determined to do something, ten cows can't pull it back, even if Gongzi comes to visit in person, they will never change their minds." ”

"I've dealt with them for so many years, I know them too well, they won't give up easily if they don't turn them over, but don't worry, these two guys are cunning and cunning, and they must have left a way out for themselves, and ordinary people can't be their opponents at all."

After hearing this, Mu Sheng couldn't help but sigh and said, "Okay! I'm just a happy marquis, I can't care so much, let them go. ”

For so many years, no relatives and friends came to the door, and it was rare for an old friend Guo Jue to come to visit, so he forcibly stayed for a few days, and when he saw that he was looking for relatives, he eagerly sent him a large sum of gold and silver to send him away to find his eldest brother Guo Huan.

Mu Sheng heard Guo Jue tell him such a big secret, he secretly calculated in his heart, he also had to hurry up and prepare, in case of failure, he had to let Mu Yinaqi take his wives and concubines to Yucheng in southern Xinjiang to settle down first, and it would be much more convenient to run away alone with a bucket when the time came......
