All the generals gathered in the palace, and when Fang Zilan arrived, everyone was already discussing the issue of military symbols and military systems. She bowed and stood aside. She listened for a while and became increasingly confused.
Wei Changtai's rebellion was child's play, and everyone present knew this. The key is that you know you will lose, so why fight back? Are you tired of living and want to choose a different way to die?
But everyone present seemed to have ignored this issue. The focus of the discussion was mainly on how to correct the military symbols, why the deputy general failed to discover the problem with the military symbols in time, and how many deputy generals should be present when using the military symbols to make it more reasonable...
And so on, I can't say that I'm putting the cart before the horse, but I always feel a strange sense of dissonance.
Fang Zilan calmed down and simply stopped listening to what they said. She thought about her thoughts carefully and finally found the strangeness.
It was inevitable that Wei Subaru would act quickly. After all, if this matter was not handled properly, the military department in Wei's hands would be difficult to retain, and it would be difficult to retain control of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. However, he reacted so quickly unless he targeted Wei Changtai from the beginning.
This point doesn't make sense. Wei Changtai is insignificant among the Wei clan. It is impossible for Wei Subaru to send someone to keep an eye on him. It would be okay if Wei Yi is involved. I heard that Wei Yi has been holding a grudge against Wei Subaru since he lost his position as the head of the family. It is normal for the two of them to keep a close eye on each other. Then Wei Changtai...
Fang Zilan raised her hand and frowned slightly. Putting aside Wei Changtai's motives, who could be the person who informed Wei Subaru? Is it someone from within the Wei family, or someone from another family who reciprocates with the Wei family? Or maybe Wei Subaru himself discovered something abnormal early on?
She thought for a while and first eliminated the last possibility. Although she didn't have much contact with Wei Subaru, she could tell that although this man was extremely sharp, he was cold in his bones. Wei Changtai was not enough to let him worry.
"Duke Yue, please tell me." Li Shengxuan's voice suddenly sounded. Fang Zilan was stunned and asked subconsciously: "What?"
Huangfu Xin, who was standing behind her, coughed and reminded in a low voice: "Master Fang, Your Majesty would like to ask you what you think of Wei Changtai's forged military talismans and rebellion."
Fang Zilan said nothing, and Li Shengxuan looked at her with interest, "The Duke of Yue didn't say a word. I wonder what he was thinking about?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Fang Zilan bowed, "I was just wondering why Wei Changtai did this."
Li Shengxuan said quietly: "Did Duke Yue think of it?"
"Not yet." Fang Zilan shook his head, "I think this matter is strange. No matter who looks at it, the rebellion is unlikely to succeed. In this case, Wei Changtai's move, in addition to risking his own life and dragging the Wei family into the water, also What’s the benefit?”
All the generals present were military generals. Even if they were not under the Wei family, they were closely related to the military department controlled by the Wei family. Therefore, few people want to drag Wei into this level. Now that Fang Zilan directly exposed it, they couldn't help but look at Li Shengxuan.
Li Shengxuan thought thoughtfully, "What do you think? You might as well express your opinions."
No one spoke for a while. After a while, Xia Houzhang stood up and said: "If there are people like this in the Wei clan who commit rebellion, they will inevitably be implicated. It is an oversight to say the least. However, everyone in the Wei clan is different. , Duke Wei is the first to bear the brunt, as for the others..."
He didn't go on, and Fang Zilan's heart trembled. According to Li Shengxuan's temper, except for the principal and accomplices, the other people involved would not be punished too severely. If Wei Yi takes this opportunity to suppress Wei Subaru and compete for the position of head of the family, it is not impossible.
"Master Xiahou is wrong." Huangfu Xin said, neither humble nor arrogant: "Even though Wei Changtai's rebellion this time will undoubtedly be defeated, if Duke Wei had not discovered it in time, there might have been a disaster. Even if Duke Wei had not noticed it, The merits outweigh the faults."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes fell on Huangfu Xin, and no one seemed to have thought that he would stand up and speak for Wei Subaru.
"Although General Huangfu's words are reasonable, His Majesty has always had the final say on merits, demerits, rewards and punishments. Don't overdo it." Fang Zilan made a point without taking it seriously, but Huangfu Xin was unmoved at all, "Does Master Fang think that Is it the fault of Duke Wei?"
Fang Zilan frowned slightly, "Why did General Huangfu say this?"
"I heard that someone in Mr. Fang's house was involved." Huangfu Xin said calmly: "I thought Mr. Fang wanted to accuse Duke Wei of the crime so that he could get away with it."
Fang Zilan took a deep breath, and before she could say anything, she heard a general next to him say suspiciously: "There are actually people in Mr. Fang's house who are involved?"
"Yes." Huangfuxin nodded and said, "Shangguan Min from Mr. Fang's residence also went to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing."
Fang Zilan clenched her fingers into fists, completely suspecting that she was in love with Huangfu Xin. Before he spoke, no one knew that Shangguan Min was camped in the suburbs of Beijing. So how did he learn about this?
The situation is still unclear, but Huangfuxin jumped out to disrupt the situation, which just shows that he is also involved. But his move was too deliberate. He deliberately mentioned Shangguan Min, deliberately pointed the finger at her, and deliberately aroused her suspicion...
Fang Zilan felt that she had more and more doubts. Why did Huangfuxin want to wade into this muddy water? He could obviously say nothing and completely ignore himself, Huangfulin, and even the entire Huangfu family.
"Shangguan Min? Shouldn't he be in the north?" "Yes, why did Shangguan Min go to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing?"...
Sure enough, the sound of discussion instantly filled the entire palace. The people who heard the news were like boiling water exploding in a pot, almost overflowing.
"Quiet." Xia Houzhang suddenly raised his voice and suppressed everyone's voices. "What's the point of making noise?"
Everyone fell silent, but they still looked at me and me at you without stopping eye contact.
Li Shengxuan looked calm, looked at Fang Zilan steadily, and asked: "Is what Huangfu Xin said true?"
"I don't know." Fang Zilan said frankly: "I believe in Shangguan Min. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that he would participate in the rebellion."
"You know Shangguan Min's identity better than anyone else." Li Shengxuan asked: "If he is indeed involved, what do you want?"
"If Shangguan Min is indeed involved, I will kill him myself." Fang Zilan said with a stern face, "Then I will apologize to His Majesty again."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was another burst of discussion. After all, her words were equivalent to confirming that Shangguan Min was not in the North and was related to her.
However, she ignored everyone's reaction and asked herself: "General Huangfu, your father did not accompany Tiancheng Mountain. I wonder where he is at this time?"
Huangfuxin pursed his lips and said, "My father has been in poor health recently. I think he should take a nap at this time. Mr. Fang, please don't make groundless speculations and ruin my father's innocence."
"Really?" Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "I dare to ask General Huangfu. No one else knows where Shangguan Min is now. How did you know that he was camped in the suburbs of Beijing?"
