As the clouds and rain gradually subsided, Mu Sheng hugged Muyinaqi's soft and jade-like body and said, "Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I have finally come to you."
Muyinaqi's face turned slightly red, and she breathed a sigh of relief. She seemed to be still immersed in the crazy passion just now. She struggled a bit, pushed away Mu Sheng's increasingly dishonest hands, and said, "Let me take a moment." , I’m really impressed by you, I can’t feed you enough, it’s been more than half a year since I left Yucheng, why do you act like you’ve never seen a woman, is there no woman here to serve you?”
Mu Sheng chuckled and said: "Of course there are, you have a new sister..."
Hearing this, Muyinaqi said angrily: "I know you are a crooked person, and you have taken in a few beauties behind our sisters' backs?"
Mu Sheng smiled and said: "They are not really new. I remember telling you about them. Princess Yi of the Dongyue clan. I have known each other since I was Lord Changping. It was my first love. At that time, King Tuli only recognized Princess Yi. The prince, he only wants to marry Ruimu Yi to the prince, but he, the old man, looks down upon me as an idle member of the clan."
"Later, I just became the crown prince, and my father-in-law immediately sent Princess Yi to me. Alas! Really, I don't even know what to do... There is also Li Shu, just an ordinary palace maid. , we met in Taiji Palace, and things happened suddenly at that time, and you also know that I was under house arrest for nearly half a year, and then Prince Ru rebelled against me, and it was not until the late emperor finished his training that he released me."
Hearing this, Muyinaqi lightly punched Mu Sheng and said, "Okay, then you hooked up with her? Fortunately, our sisters were worried about you so much that we thought you were in Tai Chi Palace. What happened? I didn’t expect you, a pervert, to be living happily with other women in the palace?"
Mu Sheng smiled apologetically and said, "It's all over. Your Excellency has a lot of people. Who can hold it in under house arrest for such a long time?"
Muyinaqi snorted coldly and said, "I know that none of you men are good."
After Mu Sheng heard this, he coaxed her with sweet words for a while, which finally made Muyinaqi calm down a little. After seeing that her mood was calm, he wanted to have some fun with her.
Muyinaqi slapped away the hand that was extended to her angrily and said: "Oh, please be honest, we are waiting for a while, we are busy with business. To be honest, our sisters heard that you succeeded to the throne and became the emperor in Yucheng, and we were all shocked. I’m shocked, what happened in the middle?”
When Mu Sheng heard this, he smiled and elaborated on how he planned to kill Lord An Guo remotely and sent someone to persuade Prime Minister Huo to let him inherit the throne. He made himself the master chess player who controlled everything behind the scenes. , fooling Muyinaqi into a daze.
After hearing this, Muyinaqi turned around and stroked Mu Sheng's face gently, with a serious look in his eyes, and said slowly: "Husband, some of my words may not be agreeable to your ears. My husband is now a Nine-Five Supreme. This is it." The greatest king, even my concubine would not dare to..."
Mu Sheng stepped forward and kissed her gently, and said: "Sister Naqi, if you have anything to say, just speak up. So what if I become the emperor? I'm still your husband, right?"
Hearing this, Muyinaqi felt warm in his heart and said, "Then don't you be unhappy if I come out?"
Mu Sheng probably guessed it, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I know what you are thinking. Do you think what I just said was a bit weak?"
Muyinaqi nodded and said: "Well, yes, husband, to be honest, based on my understanding of you, I don't think you have the ability to accomplish such a big thing. There must be someone behind this. If you were sure of winning the throne, why did you rush to take us to the mountain in the first place? You were still afraid that the fight for the throne would involve you and end up with an irreversible end, so you took us to the mountain in advance. Puppet? Am I right in my analysis?"
Hearing this, Mu Sheng chuckled and said, "My Naqi is smart, he can see through the essence at a glance."
"You're right. The reason why I ascended to the throne was because there was indeed an expert behind the scenes. In fact, I had long given up the idea of seizing the throne. At that time, I had no intention of taking An Guojun's place in the late emperor's mind. Maybe instead of fighting for position, it would be better to take you away from this place of wrong as soon as possible."
Then Mu Sheng sighed again: "It's just that I really didn't expect that the person standing behind me would never let go. It wasn't until I sat in this seat that I figured out a lot of things."
Muyinaqi speculated: "Could it be that Huo Xiangguo established a new king for his own selfish reasons?"
Mu Sheng smiled slightly and said: "You were only half right. It was someone who took advantage of Huo Xiangguo's selfishness to finally accomplish this big thing."
Muyinaqi asked curiously: "Who is it?"
Mu Sheng said: "It's my good uncle Zhao Chu. He has always been behind the scenes when I ran away from Lushan."
Muyinaqi asked: "Zhao Chu?"
Mu Sheng said: "Yes, it's him and Wu Xie. In fact, they didn't expect that I could really ascend to the throne. Even I didn't expect that they could really succeed in this situation. It's just that Huo Xiang has the power now, and I'm still a In name only."
Muyinaqi said: "The days are long, and you are much younger than Prime Minister Huo. As long as you can hold on, you will secure the throne sooner or later. Who can do anything to you now?"
Mu Sheng said: "Yes!"
Muyinaqi asked: "By the way, I forgot one thing. I took it upon myself to bring a thousand members of the Black Bird Army under my command to Qingyang disguised as members of the mission. If anything happens, you can rely on me." "
Hearing this, Mu Sheng frowned and said, "I am afraid that so many people entering the city will arouse the vigilance of Huo Xiangguo's cronies. Now Huo Zheng's cronies are almost everywhere in the government and the public. They are all from the army, and it is difficult to hide their temperament."
Muyinaqi said: "It's okay. How smart is Prime Minister Huo anyway? He can still think that you are the real master of the mountain puppets? You can just find a way to keep them in the city. You may really be able to help in the future." Are you seizing power?"
Mu Sheng thought for a while and said: "None of them can stay in the city. The target is too obvious. At that time, we will let the Black Bird Army follow the mission out of the city. I asked the prosecutor and captain Bian Hu to arrange for them to temporarily join the Qing Yi Mission and spread out in the city. It’s always on call, maybe it will come in handy in the future.”
Muyinaqi said: "Have you figured out how to seize power from Huo Xiangguo?"
Mu Sheng nodded and said, "Well, it takes time to prepare. I need an opportunity, at least it's not the time yet."
Muyinaqi said: "I believe you can do it..."
Mu Sheng nodded and said: "I'm afraid it will take at least several years of work. This place is no better than Shanpuppet. I have just ascended to the throne and I don't have enough prestige. As a dignified Prime Minister, I have been standing in the court for more than ten years. The tree is big and has deep roots. I can't compare."
Early the next morning, in Zhangtai Palace, Mu Sheng summoned alone the elders Bortas and Borzongbi who came to Cishan with the delegation.
When Mu Sheng saw the two of them entering the palace, he said, "I have called you here today to form an alliance between Taisha and Jin Dynasty. You all can express your opinions. I guess that something happened in southern Xinjiang during the time I left Yucheng." Some changes forced Taisha to send envoys to the DPRK to form an alliance with me, the Jin Dynasty?"
Bortas stepped forward and said: "Our ancestors are wise, but as our ancestors expected, some major events have happened in southern Xinjiang these days. The reason why Taisha is anxious to come to the Central Plains to ask for help is because Taisha is at war with the Xi tribe. Repeatedly, they suffered a complete defeat and lost their troops and territory. Now that the Xi tribe had invaded the core area of Taisha, four more fertile kingdoms in Taisha fell into the hands of the Xi tribe. If the emperor and the empress had not made a decisive decision and decisively sent troops to help I have obtained a handful of Taisha, and I estimate that today’s Taisha will probably follow the same example as before when the country was destroyed and the royal capital fell.”
When Mu Sheng heard this, he understood that the current situation in southern Xinjiang was that of the three kingdoms competing for hegemony. Whoever takes the lead will have to unite the other two to deal with him. No matter how big the hatred and grievances were in the past, the overall situation must be taken into account.
He still couldn't imagine Tesha being stretched like this on a frontal battlefield? Probably not. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. How can it be so difficult to deal with a former tribe?
Mu Sheng asked: "With Taisha's national power, we shouldn't be able to reach the current situation, right?"
Borzongbi stepped forward and replied: "For the knowledge of our ancestors, the main reason why Taisha was defeated like this was because within them, Emperor Taisha instigated internal fighting among the nobles from the north and south of the country in order to weaken the privileges of the nobles. Seeing that Taisha was busy fighting among themselves, the former tribe gradually consolidated the newly occupied territory. Now, the former tribe has more than 400,000 armored elites in the country. Their military power is victorious. On the frontal battlefield, Taisha has been defeated again and again, even the most elite Taisha. The Wang family army directly under the royal family also lost several battles in a row, which led to the Xi clan gradually growing in size."
"Now when Taisha stops the internal fighting and reorganizes the army to fight against the Xi tribe, Taisha is no longer a match for the Xi tribe. Now, although our mountain puppets have temporarily joined forces with Taisha to block the crazy expansion of the Xi tribe, the situation is It’s subject to change at any time.”
Mu Sheng really didn't expect that Tesha would be so weak. In the current battle situation, Tesha might not even be able to defend the core area.
Mu Sheng thought for a while and asked, "Where is the Wolf Lord? Is he also on the side of the Xi clan?"
Borta nodded and said: "My ancestors knew everything. The Clam Slave Regiment under the Wolf Lord was astonishingly powerful. In the past, the great elder of the clan, Long She Baiye, sealed three of the Wolf Lord's cities in order to bribe the Wolf Lord. The Wolf Lord's strength greatly increased, and now the ancestor is no longer here." The city is in charge, and the Wolf Lord can no longer be held hostage by us, so we can only let him go."
Mu Sheng thought for a while and said: "I can't help myself now. I have become the lord of the Central Plains. It is impossible for me to return to Yucheng to preside over the overall situation. It seems that with the current situation in southern Xinjiang, our country must cooperate with Tai Sha has formed an alliance, and if we allow the former clan to continue to develop, I am afraid that raising tigers will cause trouble in the future."
Bortas and Borzongbi looked at each other, bowed at the same time and said: "Old ancestors, saints."
