Mo Han poured a cup of tea and took a sip to calm down, "Who says it's not the case? Although the wedding ceremony between Mrs. Qinji and King Pingnan incorporated military rituals and a vigil, the Qin family's conspiracy failed to succeed. , but Qin’s lies are far more than this."
Fang Zilan's expression became more solemn, "What other lies does Mr. Qin have?"
Mo Han said in a low voice: "After King Pingnan was buried in the deep sea, Mrs. Qin Ji was not pregnant and never returned to the capital. She disappeared. She most likely wanted to commit suicide and follow King Pingnan."
"I remember your mother said that General Qin Yuan saved Mrs. Qin Ji, and also said that after she returned to Beijing, she gave birth to a daughter and died of hemorrhage..." Fang Zilan suddenly stopped as she spoke, and her eyes suddenly widened, " Your mother also said that these were all said by Concubine Shu of the previous dynasty..."
"The former concubine Shu deceived my parents." Mo Han looked a little colder. "Since General Qin Yuan is involved in this and is in cahoots with the former concubine Shu, I'm afraid not many people in the entire Qin family are clean. But..."
Before he finished speaking, Fang Zilan coughed violently, interrupting his subsequent words.
Seeing this, Mo Han quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Fang Zilan's hand, "Sister Lan, calm down."
"It's all lies..." Fang Zilan squeezed the tea cup in her hand tightly, "That mother and son took advantage of the royal status of the previous dynasty to take over the ghost gate as their own, and they actually used the banner of King Pingnan to use Wu Qing to let him go. The old people in the previous dynasty bowed their heads and obeyed orders, which is really abominable!"
Before she could finish her words, she heard a click and the teacup was crushed by her. The tea spilled all over the floor and the broken porcelain cut her hand, but she didn't even notice.
"Sister Lan!" Mo Han saw that she looked wrong and quickly stepped forward and held down her arm, "Quickly let go."
As if she had exhausted all her strength, Fang Zilan obediently let go of her hand, and the bloody pieces of porcelain in her hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Sister Lan, I have heard a little bit about the events of the previous dynasty." Mo Han said while helping her treat her wounds: "The last emperor of the previous dynasty had few heirs. When the Dajing Dynasty began, only Shang Shu, the former dynasty's wife, was left. Prince Yuning in the concubine’s womb. However, Concubine Shu in the previous dynasty came from a humble background and rose to the position of Concubine Shu due to her youth and beauty. Even if she saved her life and gave birth to Prince Yuning, there was no one to help her.”
He said and sighed, "But King Pingnan is different. He has great military exploits and is the military god of the previous dynasty, and many of his generals are loyal. My father was still a low-ranking general in the previous dynasty, but now, He is the city guard of Mushan Pass. It can be seen that King Pingnan’s old army is full of talents. If we can get their help..."
"Get their help, and then repeat the Huangliang dream of restoring the previous dynasty?" Fang Zilan interrupted him with a cold voice, "Even if Wu Qing is really the orphan of King Pingnan, just a puppet, how much help can she have? King Pingnan If the old department loses its ability to judge just for a puppet, what kind of talent is it?"
Mo Han looked unbearable, "Sister Lan, after seeing the Qi family and my father in the north, don't you understand? The people under King Pingnan are all diehard loyalists, and the only person they are loyal to is King Pingnan. Pingnan King. As Nan Wang Jianfeng pointed out, they will not hesitate to do anything to their heart's content. If someone holds Nan Wang's concubine as a hostage, they will agree to whatever they are asked to do."
"Why..." Fang Zilan lowered his head, his voice trembling unnoticeably.
"If King Pingnan didn't clean up the four realms, the previous dynasty would have perished even faster." Mo Han bandaged her wound and asked: "Sister Lan, have you ever thought about why the previous dynasty did not die? At the hands of foreign enemies, but died internally?
Fang Zilan was silent for a moment and then said: "The internal affairs of the previous dynasty were rotten to the core, and it would be a matter of time before they died internally."
Mo Han shook his head, "Sister Lan, you can tell from just a few words in the current record that the internal affairs of the previous dynasty were rotten to the core. Could it be that the foreign enemies in the previous dynasty couldn't see that?"
Fang Zilan reacted suddenly, "You mean that with King Pingnan in charge, the enemies from all over the world will be powerless even if they see it?"
"That's right." Mo Han nodded and said, "So the civil strife in the previous dynasty only started after King Pingnan was buried in the deep sea."
Fang Zilan was stunned and heard Mo Han continue: "I said this because I want to tell Sister Lan that without the puppet Wu Qing, the ten ghost gates would not be able to achieve success. And the current situation is not a lesson for the previous dynasty and a guide for those behind it. .”
"I understand what you mean." Fang Zilan's expression was dark and unclear. "At present, the nine princes and ministers are almost equally divided in civil and military affairs. There will not be a situation where one family is the dominant one like King Pingnan in the previous dynasty. But in other words, it will shock the four realms. It’s not that strong anymore.”
"That's right." Mo Han nodded slightly, "At the beginning of Emperor Tai'an's reign, the northern border was stable for only a few years before the barbarians invaded. Persia and other small countries in the western region also came out of Sahara during the reign of Emperor Ningshun. The Shan family is such a lord and aristocrat who keeps his word, and has done business with the capital, which has led to peace in recent years."
Fang Zilan said: "General Xiahou from the east surrendered, Baiyue was destroyed, and the pain of war was avoided. But Miluo in the south still invaded the capital repeatedly. If the generals from the four borders are singled out, no matter which one can take charge of their own affairs, but none The position can shock the four realms at the same time.”
"Maybe before, but not necessarily now." Mo Han looked at the person in front of him steadily, "Sister Lan, you are the only minister who has fought in the four realms without losing a single victory."
Fang Zilan waved her hand, "I just fought a few robbers in the west. I didn't defeat the pirates in the east. That was General Xiahou..."
Mo Han looked at her calmly, until she could say no more, and then said: "You did only fight a few robbers in the west, but the one you saved was Warners, the only daughter of the Sasanian family. Although the pirates in the east were It's not your fault, but at that time, the plague was more serious than the pirates, and your presence in the epidemic area calmed the people's hearts. I think you know your reputation in the southeast now, and you don't need me to explain it to you. Bar?"
Fang Zilan said quietly: "Mo Han, you seem to be talking so eloquently. The last time I saw you was when you helped me review my homework. I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much."
"If you want to listen, I can say more." Mo Han calmed down and said seriously: "It's just that you have experienced more things than me now, and you may not have thought of many things. Do you really want to hear some words?"
"I just want to know." Fang Zilan stared at him closely, "Are you sure that what you just told me about the Qin family is true? Also, what do you think about my life experience?"
"Of course what happened about the Qin family is true. I took your jade pendant and, as Miss Qin Xuan's orphan attendant, made insinuations for a long time before I found out the truth." Mo Han said quietly: "I have repeatedly deduced every plot. However, if there is something unreasonable, I will ask again. After listening to it now, do you think there is something wrong with it?"
"No problem." Fang Zilan answered quickly, and Mo Han said with a smile: "As for your life experience, you are definitely not the daughter of Miss Qin Xuan..."
"Why are you so sure?" Fang Zilan asked, and Mo Han's smile became even brighter, "Because I also asked some other questions. Miss Qin Xuan's child is most likely the Fang Liren son of the Fang family."
