Because of His Highness Prince Ning's advice, Ying Thirteen suddenly had an idea. They had gotten into trouble before and had always wanted to open a breakthrough on Yu Wu. They had never considered starting with Yu Wu's family members.
"Your Majesty, let's make an assumption. As long as the news of their arrest spreads and is known to the head of the Tantai family, the head of the family may think that they have betrayed them, and they will attack the family members of Yu Da and Yu Wu, and then..."
"Wait a minute!" His Highness Prince Ning interrupted him, "A more accurate description would be to attack the entire Yu family, including Mr. Yu's widow. Although I have never seen this current head of the family, according to his Years of behavior, this person would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Even if the facts later prove that his suspicion is wrong, he will not regret it. "
"The prince's judgment is the same as that of the Duke and the boss. Old General Xuanyuan and the senior also said so." Ying Thirteen nodded in agreement, "People from the Tantai family are always suspicious, and this person It seems to be getting worse.”
"Any family will have such an extreme person every once in a while. The last time such a person appeared in the Tantai family was the younger brother of Tantai Pingchuan. Counting the time, it should be about the same." His Highness Prince Ning sneered. He groaned, "It's actually the easiest way to deal with such a person. As long as you keep stirring up discord, he will eventually become disloyal."
"The prince is right!" Ying Thirteen nodded and reached out to touch his chin, "But there is a big problem now. What should we do to let the head of the Tantai family know the news and take the next step? .”
"There is no need to worry about this, there is absolutely no need to do anything." His Highness Prince Ning thought for a moment and took another piece of sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice cake. "Based on my understanding of this group of people in the Tantai family, he will not just Xijing City arranged one or more groups of people, and you arrested a lot of people this time, which caused him to suffer a very heavy blow, but there are still very few people in Xijing City who are still lurking and have not been discovered."
"Is it independent of the spies we caught?"
"That's right." His Highness Prince Ning nodded, "These people usually remain anonymous and have no contact with these spies, because the tasks they shoulder are completely different. They are not responsible for collecting information, but for Monitor the situation of the spies. Once it is discovered that someone has been caught or betrayed, the news will be sent back in time. After receiving the exact news, the Tantai family will respond promptly. And the final result will be very timely. Let the betrayers and those who were captured know."
"The whole process won't last too long, otherwise the deterrent effect they expect will be lost."
"That's right." His Highness Prince Ning finished chewing the glutinous rice in his hand, drank two sips of tea, lay back again, and burped with satisfaction, "Don't be anxious now, all you have to do is wait, wait. When this news comes, let Yu Wu see with his own eyes how the people he protects wholeheartedly treat him. At that time, even if you don't want him to speak, he will speak himself." He smiled at Ying Thirteen Smile, "Believe me, he will definitely surprise you."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
His Highness Prince Ning raised his eyebrows at Ying Shisan proudly, and chatted with him about the recent news in Xijing City. The two of them became happier and happier as they chatted, and they both felt like they had met so late.
There was a lot of fun chatting here in the Dai Wang Palace, and the birthday celebration ceremony in the Taihe Palace was also going on in an orderly manner.
The etiquette officer finished reciting the congratulations of the officials to the Queen Mother amidst the sound of silk and bamboo played by the Department of Ritual and Music, and then began to read the list of gifts from the officials, nobles and relatives of the emperor.
The birthday gifts of the civil and military officials, nobles, and relatives of the emperor in Xijing City have long been sent to the Queen Mother's inner treasury. The birthday gifts of officials from other places, military generals stationed on the border, nobles, and relatives of the emperor were displayed at the birthday celebration. Birthday gift.
Because the Empress Dowager had given many orders and edicts before, she was not allowed to give extravagant gifts, and those who violated the rules would be severely punished. Therefore, everyone in the court followed the Queen Mother's orders and did not send any strange or rare gifts. Most of them were local specialties, which looked very down-to-earth and simple.
The process of reciting the gift list lasted for a very long time. It took nearly a stick of incense to finish reading the gift list for foreign officials.
I don't know if it was because the incense from Taihe Palace was too strong, but Shen Cha felt dizzy and slowly started to feel sleepy. Because she was sitting at the front, all the officials were looking in her direction, so it was not convenient for her to be lazy, so she could only turn sideways, hide behind Shen Haolin, face the throne and yawn.
I thought no one would see it, but Song Jue happened to look over and gave Shen Cha a wicked smile.
"He's so annoying!" Shen Cha rolled his eyes at Song Jue and complained to Shen Haolin in a low voice, "When will this session end? It's so boring. It seems like there wasn't this part yesterday, right?"
"No, but I did say that the formal celebration will have this part, and also said how long it will take." Seeing her like this, Shen Haolin poured her a cup of tea, "You can take a break, I guess. There’s still half an hour until it’s over.”
Shen Cha sighed deeply, and then yawned again. As a result, Shen Haolin also yawned.
Before Shen Haolin said anything, Song Yaojia, who was sitting next to him and was equally bored, was also inspired and couldn't help but hit him.
Then something very strange happened. Starting from Song Yaojia, Prince Dai, Wu Qingruo, Song Qiyun, Song Jue, and the Queen Mother were all pulled by this magical power. Everyone began to yawn, and then everyone in the Taihe Palace began to yawn. He began to yawn, and the entire Palace of Supreme Harmony was suddenly shrouded in fatigue. When the etiquette officer finished reading the entire gift list and turned around to prepare for the next part, he found that everyone in the hall was drowsy and listless. .
The ceremony officer expressed his special helplessness when he saw this scene. He also thought that reading out the gift list was a boring thing, but he actually made people fall asleep while reading it. He didn't expect it at all.
At this particularly embarrassing moment, Hong Dutong, who was supposed to be on duty at the palace gate, strode into the hall with a sudden stride, holding a scroll in his hand and kneeling on one knee under the throne.
"Your Majesty, Marshal Liu has sent the battle report!" Hong Dutong handed the scroll to Eunuch Pan who came down from the throne. "Shuai Liu had a great victory. He annihilated a total of 8,530 invading Japanese pirates and burned the Japanese pirate ships. Twenty-one. At the same time, a total of 567 water thieves were annihilated and a total of nine islands occupied by water thieves were recaptured."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Song Jue said hello three times in a row and stood up excitedly, "Shuai Liu is mighty! The navy of Daxia is mighty!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!" As the commander-in-chief of the Shen Family Army, Shen Haolin was the first to react, pulling Shen Cha to stand up and saluting Song Jue and the Queen Mother, "This is the best birthday gift Liu Shuai has ever given to the Queen Mother!"
