"The power in the hands of the eldest prince?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "Is it the so-called Wanyan and Wenjiu Department in the legend?"
"Yes, Miss, it's Wanyan and Wen's old department." Shopkeeper He nodded, "As a prince who doesn't do anything, Wanyan and Wen actually don't have much real power. His ability to develop to the level he is now depends largely on At the eldest prince's behest, all his subordinates obeyed Wanyan and Wen's orders and dispatches. Wanyan and Wen actually had some prestige among these people. He and the eldest prince controlled these people openly and secretly. They are also convinced by Wanyan and Wen."
"I know this, but..." Xue Ruitian frowned slightly, looked at Shen Haolin, and then at Shen Cha, "The news we received before was not that Wanyan and Wen's old men, some of them supported Wanyan Qingmu , does the other part support Wanyanxi?" His eyes fell on the shopkeeper He, "Does this mean that our news is wrong? Things are not what we think they are?"
"No, there is nothing wrong with your news. It is indeed the case. But Mr. Hou, the matter is not as true as you think." Shopkeeper He looked at the few people sitting in front of him, "Those who support Wanyanxi Most of the people are responsible for inquiring about information, that is, spies like villains. They have many spies in their hands, all over the Jin Kingdom."
"It is not good?"
"Miss, two armies are facing each other. It's useless to have spies. If you don't have anyone who can fight, you will definitely lose!"
"You mean..." Shen Cha frowned slightly, "All those who hold military power support Wanyan Qingmu?"
"Miss Yingming, this is the fact. Otherwise, even if Wanyan Qingmu had the support of the Japanese and the organizations behind them, he would not dare to besiege the city in such a big way and want to seize the throne by force."
"Well..." Shen Haolin pondered for a while, "It's not surprising. I can understand their choice."
"The Duke is right. To be fair, if we were those people, we would definitely choose Wanyan Qingmu. When Wanyanxi was very young, he was forced to go into exile, far away from Yiqing Mansion, that is, he occasionally came from Wanyanxi. Yan Yuwen learned about his current situation from his mouth. So, for Wanyan Qingmu, who he grew up with, who is knowledgeable, sensible, and gentle, anyone with ideas will choose Wanyan Qingmu, right? Besides... Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "There is another special reason."
"What is it?"
"Wanyan, Wen, and Wanyan Qingmu are in poor health and have short life spans, so they will have less control over them." The evil smile on Xue Ruitian's face deepened, "On the contrary, Wanyanxi is young and has poor health. Well, after being raised outside for such a long time, they don’t know what your temper is, but it’s true that it’s definitely difficult to control.” He spread his hands, “Isn’t it clear at a glance which one to choose as the new master?”
"That makes sense!" Jin Miaomiao nodded in agreement, "Did I still think that their loyalty was so vulnerable? Now that I think about it, I was too naive. Their loyalty is also Only the eldest prince can bring along Wanyan and Wen at most, and these two people are now deceased, and the restrictions on them are gone. They can choose whatever kind of lord they want, even if they are completely Yan Xi knows their choice and has no position to accuse them, right? After all, he can't ask his brother's people to be unconditionally loyal to him. There's no such thing, right? "
"That's right." Xue Ruitian nodded, "They also thought about this and made such a choice."
"What Mr. Marquis and Miss Jin said are correct. This is the fact."
"So, do you know how many people there are who have taken refuge in Wanyan Qingmu, and what they are good at?"
"I know, I understand very well." He stood up again and the shopkeeper wiped the writing on the board with a wet rag. When it dried and there were no water stains, he wrote a few names on it. "Basically, these people are the Duke, the eldest lady, and the Marquis. They all look familiar, right?"
"Brothers Qing Fang Lin and Qing Fang Shu?" Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other, "I didn't expect that these two such noble people would actually join Wanyan Qingmu? It's really rare. I think back then, they But he publicly mocked Wanyan Zongcheng and didn't give him any face at all. He was dismissive of Wanyan Zongcheng's attempts to win over him. I didn't expect that Wanyan Qingmu would take him under his command so quickly. These two brothers..." Shen Cha said softly He shook his head and said, "I am smart but I am confused for a while!"
"What the eldest lady said is true, but this is their choice." He and the shopkeeper looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "However, there is a question. Do the Duke and the eldest lady know the two brothers very well? Including them Personal situation?”
"We understand each other fairly well." Shen Cha thought for a while, "The two brothers have never had any children in their lives, only one daughter. The daughter got a son-in-law a few years ago. This son-in-law is not a waste of money. He has cultivated it carefully. Right-hand assistant, what's your name..." She looked at Shen Haolin, "Suga or something, right?"
"Yes, Suo Ga, the pioneer officer carefully trained by the two brothers is a brave and resourceful guy." Xue Ruitian smiled, "I am quite impressed by him. Every time I play against him, I will have a headache. I believe Drinking wine feels the same way.”
"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "Xiaojiu once said that Suo Ga, a nimble fat man, always rushed into our formation at the lead, and the lieutenants and guards around him hadn't reacted yet. Pioneer The officer had disappeared. When he looked again, he had already broken into other people's formations! Unlike other pioneer officers, his weapons were two sledgehammers. Each sledgehammer weighed one hundred and twenty kilograms. One can also fly up and down, whirring with wind, he is indeed a warrior."
"So powerful?" He and the shopkeeper thought for a while, "Miss, based on your understanding of Qing Fang Lin and Qing Fang Shu, can they control their subordinate and son-in-law? Their subordinate , Can you see the ambition of your son-in-law?"
"Um..." Shen Cha thought for a moment, "I don't know much about it. They rarely come out to every sparring meeting, and they have never had any special contact with each other in private. I don't know them very well." She looked at the shopkeeper and said, "You Are you suspicious of something? Or is there something unusual about these two brothers after they left the city? "
"According to reports from the little people's spies, Wanyan Qingmu's two brothers have never been seen in Wanyan Qingmu's tent since leaving the city. On the contrary, Shuo Ga runs around very frequently and always comes three or two times a day. Not only that. The two brothers, and the female family members have never seen the apple of their eyes." He and the shopkeeper paused, "The villain suspects that these two brothers are either dead or controlled by Suo Ga."
