The day Lin Ye knew what happened, he asked Xin Yanque to go back to Geling to preside over Shang Qing's funeral. When Xin Yanque went back, he happened to miss the good show at the service office.
The first thing he did after returning was not to go back to Shangyang Palace to see what was going on, but to quietly go to Ning Weimo's house.
With his strength, it would probably not be a problem to quietly enter the home of any civil or military person in the Manchu Dynasty.
In Geling City, the only place he dared not sneak into was the Haoyuan Garden on the south bank of Qingyu River.
Next to His Majesty, there is a deputy commander of the Imperial Guard named Nie Duo. In terms of age, this Nie Duo is several years older than Xin Yanque.
Xin Yanque had known about Nie Duo's existence for a long time because he was one of the few people who had ever fought against Nie Duo.
They met three times, with one loss, one draw and one win.
The first fight was lost, the second fight was a draw, and the third fight was won.
The third fight hadn't been long ago, just before His Majesty was about to leave Geling for some fun.
Xin Yanque was worried about the emperor. The emperor smiled and said with the imperial concubine and Nie Duo by my side, what are you worried about?
So Xin Yanque tested Nie Duo's strength again. Nie Duo admitted that Xin Yanque had won, but Xin Yanque refused to admit that Nie Duo had lost.
One loss, one draw and one win is what Nie Duo said. According to Xin Yanque’s statement, it should be one loss and two draws.
Nie Duo was born in Haoyuan, and his master was the big shot that no matter how naughty Xin Yanque was, he would not dare to provoke him casually.
People who are not familiar with Qingyu River will think that the prosperity of Qingyu River came first and then the establishment of Haoyuan.
But in fact, it was Haoyuan first and then the prosperity and rules of Qingyu River.
It was almost midnight, and the auxiliary ministers in the office were still discussing matters about Lin Ye.
At this time, someone came to report outside the door, saying that someone from Zaifu's family had come over in a hurry, saying that something big had happened at Zaifu's family, and asked Zaifu to go home quickly.
Ning Weimo wondered if something big could happen in the middle of the night, but he knew there must be something wrong.
After returning home, Ning Weimo felt relieved when he saw Xin Yanque.
"It will be good if His Highness is back."
Ning Weimo said: "Today and in the middle of the night, the office was about to explode. Wang Luoshen led people to surround the office, forcing..."
Before he finished speaking, Xin Yanque nodded: "I know everything."
Ning Weimo said: "His Highness is back, and those rumors will be self-defeating."
Xin Yanque said: "I'm back, but I can't show up. You should know that it's better for me to disappear at this time."
Ning Weimo was slightly startled when he heard this, because he actually didn't know the whole plan.
When things develop, Xin Yanque will tell him what to do next.
Of course it was the emperor who arranged all this. Even if the emperor planned every step carefully enough, there would inevitably be some deviations in the execution. After all, the person who executed it was not himself.
After hearing Xin Yanque's words that he should not show up, Ning Weimo immediately woke up.
People like him are the best among human beings.
If he was not smart enough, His Majesty would not have appointed him as Prime Minister.
"I understand."
Ning Weimo responded, and then added: "This is indeed better for the general."
Xin Yanque came back, but did not show up. He did not go to Shangyang Palace to preside over Shang Qing's funeral, nor did he appear in front of the civil and military officials of the court.
Of course, there is only one meaning, and that is to make people continue to think that he was detained by Lin Ye.
Because of this, Ning Weimo said that it was better for the general, so it seemed a bit strange.
Xin Yanque said: "Only two people in your house know that I am here, and no one else knows. Those two can stay in the backyard and serve me. Others should not let them come to the backyard."
Ning Weimo said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will make arrangements soon."
Xin Yanque said again: "
I'm hungry. Just give me an order and tell me you're hungry and prepare some food. "
Ning Weimo didn't dare to delay, so he quickly went out and sent someone to prepare meals.
While waiting, Ning Weimo couldn't help but ask: "General...does he know that His Highness came back but didn't show up?"
Xin Yanque shook his head: "My original intention was not to come back, but he felt that it might be dangerous for me to stay at Nushan Camp. Moreover, if I don't come back, it will really affect my reputation."
Ning Weimo said: "Even if outsiders think that Lin Ye has detained His Highness, they will probably curse His Highness incompetence and morality in their hearts..."
Xin Yanque glanced at Ning Weimo and said, "You were very direct. You probably wanted to scold me."
Ning Weimo leaned over quickly: "I...don't dare."
Xin Yanque said, "You said you don't dare, not that you won't. It seems you do think so too."
Ning Weimo: "..."
Xin Yanque said: "Don't pretend to be innocent. You don't know what kind of person you are?"
Ning Weimo had no choice but to smile.
After a while, Ning Weimo said with emotion: "This time, I really gave all the bad reputation to the general."
Xin Yan nodded: "I hope he can be sensible."
Ning Weimo said: "The general should be sensible."
Xin Yanque: "If you are sensible, you will know that every grievance has its owner. This matter has nothing to do with me. If he has grievances, he should go to His Majesty, otherwise he will really turn against him."
Ning Weimo: "..."
"I'll hide it from you."
Xin Yanque said, "You can find a way to contact Nie Wuzhi. He will help me keep an eye on things in Shangyang Palace."
Ning Weimo was stunned for a moment, and he said helplessly: "Nie Wuzhi, the Dali teacher, has been missing for many days. No one knows where he has gone. His Highness asked me to contact him, but I am really helpless."
"He is right next to Lu Junji."
Xin Yanque said: "My master said before he left that if those people want to destroy Shangyang Palace, the first thing they must get rid of is the important people in Shangyang Palace."
"Master predicts that the first person they have to deal with is Lu Junji. After all, Lu Junji is the easier one to kill in the Dali Sect."
He shook his head: "I didn't expect that the first one would be Shang Qingyu."
He looked at Ning Weimo and said, "Nie Wuzhi has been hiding in the dark to protect Lu Junji according to my master's instructions."
He said, "You are the Prime Minister. It is normal for you to express your condolences to the late Dali Sect priest. Find an opportunity to meet him and tell Nie Wuzhi what happened to me here. He will come to see me."
Ning Weimo agreed.
The two chatted for a while, and after checking with each other, they realized that they thought they had paid enough attention to Wang Luoshen, but after suffering a loss, they realized that their attention was far from enough.
"Your Majesty said, I am no match for Wang Luoshen, and neither are you."
Xin Yanque sighed and said, "I heard it at the time, but I was not convinced."
Ning Weimo nodded: "I also know this, but I don't... feel sincerely convinced."
Xin Yanque said: "So we have lost a move, Shang Qingxiao died unjustly... I actually respect him very much."
He said: "Shangyang Palace's prestige used to have nothing to do with him, but in the past twenty years, because of his talisman skills, people have become more respectful of Shangyang Palace."
Ning Weimo also sighed.
He and Shang Qinghui had only met a few times, but each time they met, they left a deep impression. Shang Qinghui had a gentle and a little cunning character, and was easy to get along with.
"Your Highness, is there anything else?"
"And one more thing."
Xin Yanque said: "King
There is one of our people in Luoshen Mansion who has been hiding for many years. It seems that Wang Luoshen trusts her very much, but I suspect that Wang Luoshen is also pretending. "
He looked at Ning Weimo and said, "Her name is Xu Xinshu. According to her status, she is His Majesty's niece and the princess of Dayu."
These words startled Ning Weimo again.
Xin Yanque asked, "Do you know about the Pure Selection?"
Ning Weimo nodded: "I have heard a little bit about this person."
Xin Yanque said: "He and Xin Yanque are brother and sister. Jing Xuan was arranged to leave by His Majesty. Your Majesty meant that they must be safe."
Ning Weimo nodded and said: "I remember, but I really don't have many available people, especially the stronger practitioners, so I protect them..."
Xin Yanque said: "There is no need for you to protect me. If it were your turn to protect someone, then our side would have to lose miserably. We would die very quickly before it was your turn."
He said, "If she is in any danger, someone will rescue her and bring her to you. You can just arrange for her to hide."
Having said this, Xin Yanque glanced outside: "Why haven't you come with food?"
Ning Weimo stood up quickly and said, "I will go and urge you now."
Not long after, the food was delivered to Ning Weimo's study. Seeing Xin Yanque eating like that, Ning Weimo couldn't believe that the person in front of him was Dayu His Royal Highness the Prince.
He asked: "Your Highness, I heard that the bodies of cultivators are much stronger than ordinary people, so I thought that the stronger the cultivators are, the less likely they will be worried about things like hunger that ordinary people find difficult."
Xin Yanque said: "You heard it right. The stronger the practitioner, the less likely it is that something big will happen to him due to hunger. The stronger he is, the better he can endure it. It's just that he can endure it, but it doesn't mean he won't be hungry."
Ning Weimo: "..."
Xin Yanque said: "In addition to the two people I just told you that you need to meet as soon as possible, there is another person you need to keep a close eye on."
Ning Weimo asked: "Who?"
Xin Yanque said: "Lin Ye guesses that no matter how decisive Wang Luoshen seems to be in the city, even if he doesn't leave himself a way out, it's just a cover-up."
"After I came back, I heard about Wang Luoshen's besieging the office and forcing you to agree to Gao Qisheng's troops leaving the city..."
"After I heard about it, what I thought was...I was guessed by that kid again."
He looked at Ning Weimo and said, "Lin Ye guessed that no matter how much trouble Wang Luoshen made, he would not take the risk of actually rebelling in the city."
"For example, your daughter suddenly told you one day that she fell in love with a wild boy who was involved in the underworld and was planning to elope with him. Naturally, you were angry and panicked. She saw that you were frightened so much that she told you that she was lying to you. In fact, it’s just that she broke a vase that you like, so you won’t be so angry.”
Xin Yanque said: "This is not a good example. After all, it was Lin Ye who gave it, not me... He said that what Wang Luoshen originally wanted to do, and what he wanted to do after making a big fuss, was actually him. What did you originally want to do?"
He looked at Ning Weimo and said, "First, Lin Ye said that Xumi Pianruo will probably go to Nushan Camp."
"Secondly, Xumi Pianruo will not go alone. He said that in order to show fairness and to shirk the blame, Ning Weimo would definitely invite a great Rites Master from Shangyang Palace to the Nushan camp, and would also invite the censor The surviving censors of Taiwan went to the Nushan camp."
Hearing this, Ning Weimo blushed.
Xin Yanque asked, "It can't be the case. Unfortunately, he was right."
Ning Weimo lowered his head and said, "That's really...unfortunate."
Xin Yanque said: "So you also know who I asked you to stare at."
Ning Weimo nodded: "It's Chen Weiwei."
Xin Yanque said: "Chen Weiwei was promoted to this position by me. It's time for him to do what this position should do. I put him in front of Wang Luoshen, how could Wang Luoshen not use it?"
Ning Weimo said in his heart, Your Highness, please stop bragging. Is that your own idea? Wasn't that all arranged by His Majesty?
What?
