——Inside Kyoto
Since his last divorce, Emperor Jingyuan has not been able to rest well all day long. Whenever he faces these noisy ministers, sometimes he really wants to drag them out and kill them.
On this rare day of rest, Emperor Jingyuan called the Imperial Master and Mu Feng over. When they arrived, they saw Emperor Jingyuan pacing back and forth in the palace with a sad face. Mu Feng and Ouyang Zhu looked at each other one after another. Went in
It was rare for Ouyang Zhu to be so respectful, "I see your Majesty."
"No need for these false gifts." Emperor Jingyuan waved the two of them over and threw a memorial in front of them. "Look, this is coming from the south of the Yangtze River. After investigating for a long time, even the royal family's property was given away." Take it! Imperial Master, you previously recommended Miss Xi to investigate this matter. Now let her investigate for me and find out who dares to be so bold!"
"Yes, I will send her a message when I get back and ask her to investigate the matter as soon as possible."
Mu Feng handed a secret document to Emperor Jingyuan, "To inform my father, King Lao Sha passed away two days ago. The forty-nine states are now divided into Xisha and Dongsha. Xisha is commanded by Qi Yi, the eldest son of King Lao Sha. Dongsha is commanded by Tuwa Yiyi."
Hearing this, Emperor Jingyuan frowned and asked, "What do you two think?"
Mu Feng glanced at Ouyang Zhu and saw that he had no intention of speaking, so he stepped forward and said, "I thought it would be better to take this opportunity to negotiate peace with the forty-nine states so that we can have good relations forever."
Emperor Jingyuan thought for a moment and looked at Ouyang Zhu, "What do you think, the Imperial Master?"
"I think it is not a bad idea to negotiate peace, but it is limited to Xisha under the command of Qi Yi. As for Tuva Yigui, he is brave and decisive in killing, but he is also ruthless to his subordinates. He is extremely ambitious. I won’t agree to Yan He.”
"So it is not a wise move for His Majesty to negotiate peace at this moment. Even if he is negotiating peace, he is still negotiating with Qi Yi, but their internal affairs at the moment make it impossible for him to think about major events between the two countries."
Mu Feng looked at the Imperial Master and couldn't detect anything strange on his face. Mu Feng always felt that the Imperial Master was different from before. He must be hiding something, but he couldn't find a flaw.
"What the Imperial Master said is not unreasonable," Mu Feng then asked, "Then what should we do according to what the Imperial Master said?"
"The peace negotiation is just about making good relations with other countries. What Qi Yi needs at this moment is support and assistance troops. Your Majesty can start from these two aspects. Another thing, Your Majesty can consider developing Jiangnan into a waterway for complete foreign trade, so that the national treasury will More plump."
"To put it simply, look at what Jiangnan is like now. I don't even know who has touched my royal property, so I don't know how to develop it!" Emperor Jingyuan has become much older these days, and he is so tired that he can no longer hold on. "Lao San, you have heard what the Imperial Master just said. Just do what he wants. As for the development of Jiangnan, the Imperial Master has started to arrange for Lao San to assist."
"yes."
Mu Feng and Ouyang Zhu left together
Mu Feng looked at the people next to him and suddenly stopped, "What does the Imperial Master mean? The Imperial Master should know that Jiangnan is Xu Lingxiang's home base. Now that you want to move Jiangnan, are you thinking too simply?"
"Your Highness, think about it, if we seize half of the resources, will the woman in the harem still be able to keep her composure?" Ouyang Zhu had no expression on his face and was just plain, "As far as I know, she This should be the only one she can rely on, regardless of whether she has colluded with others, this incident alone is enough to shake her."
"The Imperial Master is almost certain."
"Not much, fifty percent."
"……."
Ouyang Zhu stretched out his hand to invite Mufeng and sit down in a pavilion with him. "What are you worried about, Your Highness?"
Mu Feng's frown could not be relaxed for a long time, "Does the Imperial Guard know how many troops Daqi still has today? If you want to shake the border sand, it will be as difficult as an ant against an elephant. Have you ever thought about it?"
"Your Highness is worried for a reason. If Rong Chen says something disrespectful, the sky will change in Daqi a long time ago. If we can live in peace and harmony now, it's just calm in front of us. However, things are already turbulent below. Sooner or later, the throne will have to be replaced."
Mu Feng looked at Ouyang Zhu quietly and gestured for him to continue. Ouyang Zhu lowered his voice and said, "Once His Majesty returns to the west, what will follow is an endless fight for the throne. You must know that there are so many princes. Who knows how many people in the world want to ascend to the throne, have these Highnesses ever thought about it?"
Mu Feng didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long time, Mu Feng looked at the Imperial Preceptor and said, "Who does the Imperial Preceptor want to help ascend the throne?"
"This is not what I can say, but no matter who ascends the throne of the emperor, and I am the Imperial Master, I will do my best to assist him."
Ouyang Zhu's words were clear enough, and Mu Feng also understood: The Imperial Master remains neutral and does not involve any side, at least not offending either side. In such a chaotic world, it is really difficult to achieve this. Disaster.
Mu Feng stood up and held his hands in his hands: "Thank you so much, Imperial Master, for your advice today. I will take my leave first and won't send you off."
The person on the other side who had been secretly watching the two of them came out of the darkness and looked at Ouyang Zhu's leaving figure. This person was the second prince of Daqi, His Highness Mu Lingye.
Sacrifice concubine Pavilion Xiyang Hall——
Xiyang Palace is still so cold. Ouyang Zhu has been sitting on a rocking chair in the courtyard with his eyes closed since he came back. Today Emperor Jingyuan said that the Jiangnan royal property was taken away. This was probably done by Xi Duanhong.
"Bell~"
Ouyang Zhu was woken up by the clanging of bells and said with great displeasure: "Change your bells next time, otherwise don't step into the gate of my Yangyang Palace again."
The visitor came to Ouyang Zhu with a soft hum, and the next moment he pressed close to him. His whole body seemed to be soft and boneless, and his curves fit perfectly into Ouyang Zhu's chest, "Sir~"
That delicate voice is something that even a normal man can't bear. Just one sound can make all the men in the world bow to her. This person is the world-famous dancing girl - so.
Ouyang Zhu looked at Liao Rushi who was throwing herself in his arms. He stretched out his hand to lift her chin so that she could look directly at him. That charming and pitiful look made him feel a little sick. "Put away your face, you're disgusting."
After hearing this, Liao Ru sat up and leaned next to Ouyang Zhu, "This face is priceless. You really don't understand taste."
As soon as she said these words, she clearly felt a pair of sharp eyes staring at her. She knew who it was without having to think about it. She quickly stood up and kept a distance from Ouyang Zhu, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. I'm here to tell you what you sent me earlier." The person who came here is Tan Yanqiu."
Ouyang Zhu finally withdrew his gaze and said, "What's wrong with him?"
"After my investigation over the past few days, I have found that this person can be used by you, but he is not an easy person to handle." He said with a sweet smile, "But I also believe in your methods. No matter how smart a person is, you can have someone in your hands." Li also has to be calculated so that nothing is left~"
"In your opinion, what is he suitable for?"
"It's not easy to do this. You have to use him and guard against him. I'm afraid there won't be a place for him in the Sacrifice Pavilion, right?" After saying this, he took off the bell from his wrist and placed it next to Ouyang Zhu. On the stone table, "This thing is left here. As for Tan Yanqiu, why don't you let him make his own choice? With your methods, no matter what he does, he will not end well..."
After Ru Ru's words were very clear, Ouyang Zhu accepted her proposal without any objection. After looking at Ru Ru's leaving figure and then looking at the things she left behind, Ouyang Zhu felt a sudden loss in his heart.
He put the things away and then lay down for a while and closed his eyes, "The weather is going to change..."
