Chapter 185 185. New Mission

In the imperial study room, Duanmu Chen was seated, and Duanmuyi asked in a cold voice, "Fourth, what do you think?"

After pondering for a while, Duanmuchen said, "I heard yesterday that Brother Elder Emperor and Brother Second Emperor had some unpleasant troubles in Changchun Garden."

Duanmu Chen was not present at the time.He believed that Duanmu Yi must also know the news he got.

The abolishment of Duanmu Sheng's crown prince the day before yesterday, and the appointment of Duan Mu Ao as the crown prince, and the dispute between brothers in the theater yesterday, could be the motives for Duan Musheng to kill Duan Mu Ao. No matter how you look at it, it is very reasonable.

Moreover, both Duanmu Yi and Duanmu Chen knew that if Duanmu Cheng got rid of Duanmu Ao, the Wan family would fully support him in his position, and even rebel.

Only by getting rid of Duanmu Ao will Duanmu Sheng have a chance to make a comeback.

This is an indisputable fact.

Duanmu Yi had already said that Duanmu Sheng sent someone to kill Duanmu Ao, and asked Duanmu Chen what he thought, which made Duanmu Chen uncertain for a while, and Duanmu Yi wanted to hear what he said.

After a pause, Duanmu Chen spoke again, "I don't know the circumstances of the murder of the Second Emperor, but I just think that someone might take advantage of this opportunity to kill the Second Brother and plant it on the Eldest Brother."

When entering the palace, Duanmu Chen thought that if the evidence pointed to Su Liang, he had to find a way to lead Duanmu Sheng to him.

But I didn't expect that things didn't seem to be very controversial.

But since Duanmuyi asked, Duanmuchen still wanted to say a few words on the scene.

What he meant was that Duanmu Sheng did have an obvious motive to get rid of Duanmu Ao, and this might be used by those who want to kill Duanmu Ao and frame Duanmu Sheng.

Duanmu Yi frowned, "The killer caught is the boss's man. Could it be that the person who framed him controlled his mind?"

When Duanmuchen heard this, he actually wanted to laugh a little bit, but he naturally tried his best to control it, showing surprise and a bit of sadness.

Up to this point, Duanmu Chen still felt that Su Liang must have done something crucial, maybe the killer's inferior antidote was bought from Su Liang?It was so outrageous that he found it difficult to operate, but things were so smooth and beneficial to him that he couldn't believe that it was all God's will.

"The killer's weapon is similar to Su Liang's weapon." Duanmu Yi said with a cold face, "The matter of the Su family is related to the eldest and second son, and it is also the direct reason why I abolished the position of the eldest prince."

Duanmuchen knew about this a long time ago, but he still showed just the right amount of shock, "This..."

So what Duanmu Yi believed was that Duanmu Sheng killed Duanmu Ao with the intention of framing Su Liang?

Duanmu Chen can only use two words to describe Duanmu Ao's death: perfect.

Not only was Su Liang not suspected, he was innocent and almost wronged.

"I want to transfer Wanshan back to Beijing, who do you think is the most suitable to take his place?" Duanmu Yi asked Duanmu Chen.

Duanmu Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he was overjoyed.

The biggest backer behind the brothers Duanmu Sheng and Duanmu Ao is their uncle, Marshal Wan Shan, who is currently guarding northern Xinjiang.

This is also the biggest obstacle for Duanmu Chen in wanting to take the top position. It is the main reason why he planned to use Su Liang at the beginning, but later he wanted to win over Nian Jincheng, and he didn't want to offend Lin Bojun.

He needs the support of generals.

At this moment, Duanmu Chen heard Duanmu Yi's intention to completely abolish the Wan clan, and he also instantly understood why Duanmu Yi chose to abolish the prince because of the death of the Su family.

It's not because of the Su family's death at all, but Duanmuyi has long been afraid of the Wan family's power.

Duanmuchen even suspects that Duanmuyi deliberately trained him for the performance opportunities he got in the past two years, just for today.

After thinking about it seriously, Duanmu Chen answered Duanmu Yi's question, "The generals who have achieved military exploits today are either too old to be reused, or they have various relationships with Wanjia."

This is straightforward, but true.

It is not easy for a general to stand out. The most powerful families of generals in the Qian Kingdom, except for Duanmuche's grandfather, the Lin family, have all been infiltrated and controlled by the Wan family.The inexhaustible marriage relationship is sometimes done very secretly and cannot be controlled.

When Duanmuyi discovered the problem, he had already reached the point where he would mobilize his whole body and dare not act rashly for the sake of stability of the country.

But the generation from the Lin family to Lin Qian has completely declined, leaving only the prestige of the ancestors.

This is also one of the reasons why Duanmu Yi intended to promote young generals and attached importance to martial arts.

It's a pity that Nian Jincheng, the confidant he once wanted to cultivate, was abolished.

Lin Bojun, and Su Liang, who was selected only this year, have never been on the battlefield.

It is also impossible for Duanmu Chen to recommend Lin Bojun or Su Liang, who are too young and inexperienced, to replace Wan Shan. This is very risky and cannot convince the public at all.

But at this juncture, someone must seize Wanshan's military power, and the Qian country cannot be disturbed.

Duanmu Yi wanted to touch the Wan family for a long time, and this time he finally got the chance to attack his two useless sons, but the Wan family was still in big trouble.

Originally, Duanmuyi gave the position of prince to Duanmu Ao in order to make a smooth transition and slowly abolish the Wan family.

Unexpectedly, one day later, Duanmu Sheng killed Duanmu Ao, which completely intensified the conflict.

It is impossible for Duanmuyi to give the position of prince to Duanmucheng again, so he must beware of Wan's rebellion.

What Duanmuchen was thinking about at the moment was the nobles in the capital who were related to Su Liang, but it was a pity that he didn't have any generals to use.

But suddenly his heart moved, and he blurted out, "Lord Zhongxin!"

Duanmu Yi stared, "Xing Ji?"

"Yes, Father." Duanmu Chen said seriously, "After what happened before, I don't think there is any need to doubt his loyalty. He is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. As long as his whole family is in the capital, there is no need to worry that he will do anything. Anything that is not good for the country. Although he is not considered a military general because of his previous status, he actually went to the battlefield when he was young, and he captured the enemy general alive, which shows his bravery."

Duanmuyi frowned and thought.

Duanmuchen went on to say, "The Marquis of Zhongxin is in his prime of life, he has both status, prestige and military exploits, and he is married to the Lin family. Why don't you let him take Lin Bojun to the north, and Su Liang can also go with her. She has a very strong mind. At this time, it’s not a war, you have to obey the public on the surface, but you have to be tough behind the scenes.”

There should be no internal chaos, otherwise it will give the enemy country an opportunity to take advantage of.

"How do you think I should deal with the boss?" Duanmu Yi mentioned Duanmu Sheng again.

Duanmuchen naturally didn't dare to talk nonsense, "But according to the emperor's disposition, my son dare not speak nonsense."

In fact, he could say that for the queen mother and queen, at least let Duanmu Sheng live.

But Duanmuchen didn't want to say that.

"Retire. Order Zhongxinhou, Lin Bojun and Su Liang to enter the palace immediately!" Duanmuyi's expression darkened.

Duanmu Chen respectfully said, "Yes, father."

The moment Duanmuchen walked out of the imperial study, looking at the gloomy sky, he only felt that his future was bright.

……

Just as Duanmu Chen left, Uncle Huang pushed Duanmu Che over, begging to see Duanmu Yi.

Ning Jing had no time to poison Duanmu Che these few days, he did not go crazy intermittently, but his complexion was still bad.

"Didn't you be able to leave earlier?" Duanmu Yi asked.

Duanmu Che shook his head, "My son feels weak today."

"What's the matter?" Duanmu Yi's attitude was not as concerned as before.

Duanmu Che felt it, he frowned and said, "Father, I heard that the eldest brother killed the second brother?"

"You don't have to worry about these things, take care of your body first." Duanmuyi didn't intend to discuss serious matters with Duanmuche at all.

Duanmuche snorted coldly, "Father, my son thinks that Su Liang must be playing tricks! She killed the second brother and slandered the eldest brother! Father, don't be fooled by her!"

Duanmu Yi's face darkened instantly when he heard this, "Che'er, Su Liang just rejected you. If you can't get her, do you have to destroy her? Why are you so narrow-minded? I am so disappointed." Come here, send the fifth prince out of the palace and back to the mansion!"

Duanmu Che didn't expect Duanmu Yi to believe that the murderer was Duanmu Sheng so quickly, and he didn't mean to doubt Su Liang at all, but instead annoyed him and refused to let him live in the palace.

Duanmuche wanted to say something, but Uncle Huang had already entered the door.

Duanmu Yi got up directly and went to the side hall, not wanting to hear another word from Duanmu Che.

Uncle Huang pushed Duanmuche's wheelchair out of the imperial study room, sighed deeply, "Master, the eldest prince killed the second prince, why is this impossible, why did Miss Su be involved? Even if the Su family died that year It has something to do with those two, and Miss Su wanted to kill the second prince, but it doesn't mean she did that."

"How do you know she didn't do it?" Duanmuche asked coldly.

Uncle Huang smiled bitterly, "How does master know that the eldest prince did not do it? Since the emperor thinks it is, there must be ironclad evidence. The old slave thinks that both the eldest prince and Miss Su want to kill the second prince, and the first prince will do it first, and Miss Su will kill the second prince." If nothing is done, then it has nothing to do with her."

"But my intuition is that she did it!" Duanmuche said with a gloomy expression.

Uncle Huang shook his head, "Master, take care of your health first, and other things have nothing to do with us, so don't get involved."

……

When Duanmuchen went to Zhongxinhou's Mansion to inform Xing Ji, he was looking at the dowry Miao had prepared for his daughter.

After Mr. Qin's previous intentional point, Xing Ji also felt that he was a little too harsh on the Miao family and their children. In the past two days, his attitude has softened a bit. Except for Xing Yusheng, the family is also happy.

Xing Ji knew that Mr. Qin's intention was definitely not to really want to see Miao and her children, but to remind Xing Ji that the family must be harmonious and that no troubles would arise.Previously, Xing Ji cared too much about Xing Yusheng's mood, and treated other children too differently, which was prone to problems.

Xing Yusheng's dowry to Lin Xueqing was prepared by Mrs. Xing, and the Miao family was not allowed to intervene.

Xing Ji was very surprised to see Duanmu Chen coming to the door, "I will see His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

The capital has been turbulent these past two days, but Xing Ji feels that it has nothing to do with them.

Until Duanmuchen said that the emperor asked him to enter the palace immediately to discuss important matters.

Mrs. Miao looked very happy, "Husband, let's go!"

Duanmu Chen didn't even sit down, and came out with Xing Ji directly.

When Xing Ji asked, Duanmuchen only knew about entering the palace.

The two separated soon, and Duanmuchen went to find Lin Bojun in person again.

As for Su Liang, he was already in the palace at the moment, giving the Queen Mother Wan's an injection, and didn't know that she was arranged by Duanmu Chen.

Seeing Su Liang again this time, Wan swears directly, saying that she is behind the scenes, killing Duanmu Ao, framing Duanmu Sheng, and ordering her to be arrested.

However, Duanmu Yi had already changed all the servants serving in Ci'an Palace, and no one listened to Wan Shi.

Su Liang is in a good mood.

The careful deployment before was waiting for today.

She is not afraid of being suspicious.

But not only all the evidence points to Duanmu Sheng, but Duanmu Sheng really wanted to kill Duanmu Ao last night.

I'm afraid Duanmu Sheng himself felt that it was the killer he arranged who bought the inferior medicine, which made the success fall short.

"The Empress Dowager, please be patient and take care of your health." Su Liang's smile didn't reach his eyes.

pain?now it's right.

How did these high-ranking nobles disregard human lives in the past, and now they are waiting to lose everything.

The way of heaven favors reincarnation, and sins will be punished.

Wan Shi gritted her teeth, "Bitch! Sooner or later, the Ai family will tear you to pieces!"

Su Liang looked calm, "I'm so scared."

Now that the situation is like water and fire, there is no need to pretend to be a snake.

Wan Shi was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, "Your Majesty! Listen to me, Your Majesty, this bitch has committed crimes below, and doesn't take Aijia seriously at all!"

Su Liang put away the last golden needle, and heard the old eunuch's voice from outside Ci'an Palace, "The emperor ordered Su Taiyi to go to the imperial study immediately after treating the empress dowager."

"Okay." Su Liang responded, looked at the distorted Wan Shi, and smiled slightly, "The emperor invited me to the imperial study, there must be something important to discuss, and I will tell the emperor that the empress dowager wants to see him. Whether you come or not, I don’t know.”

Su Liang carried the medicine box on his back, walked out of Ci'an Palace with a calm expression, looked up at the sky, it was about to rain again.

Su Liang didn't know whether Duanmu Yi had doubts about her when he wanted to see her now or something else, but she had made complete preparations in advance and was not worried.

When Su Liang entered, he was a little surprised to see Duanmu Chen, Xing Ji and Lin Bojun.

After saluting, Duanmuyi asked about Wan's body.

Su Liang told the truth, "The empress dowager is in a hurry and needs to rest carefully."

But one grandson died, and the other was disabled and might even be executed. It was impossible for Wan Shi to meditate.

Although Duanmu Chen and Duanmu Che are also Wan's grandsons, she has always only liked the two with their Wan family blood.

"The empress dowager wants to see the emperor." Su Liang said.

Duanmu Yi said with a serious expression, "Sit down."

Su Liang sat down where Lin Bojun was going to strike, still not knowing Duanmuyi's intentions.

But since Xing Ji and Lin Bojun are here, Su Liang thinks it's not about discussing how Duanmu Ao died.

Duanmuyi didn't go around the corner, and directly stated his arrangement, asking Xing Ji to take Lin Bojun and Su Liang to the north to take over the military power from Wan Shan and his two sons, and let them return to Beijing to return to their orders.

The most surprising one was Xing Ji.

He didn't expect that there would be a day when he would be reused, let alone that such an important matter would be entrusted to him at this juncture.

"Lord Zhongxin, do you understand what I said?" Duanmu Yi looked at Xing Ji and asked.

Xing Ji said in a respectful voice, "I understand that I will definitely live up to the trust of the emperor."

As soon as Duanmuchen heard it, he felt that it was indeed the King of Beijing who dared to break into the enemy's camp alone.

"Very good!" Duanmuyi was very satisfied with Xing Ji's answer, "If someone disobeys the order and disrespects it, he will be executed on the spot! General Lin and General Su assist Zhongxinhou, and must complete the tasks I have given you, and make no trouble!"

Lin Bojun and Su Liang didn't even get a chance to ask for their wishes, so they could only accept orders to thank them.

"Let's set off today, and go with the imperial decree and monk Fang's sword." Duanmu Yi said.

Xing Ji took the imperial decree and the sword, and took Lin Bojun and Su Liang together to leave.

After leaving the imperial study room, Su Liang sighed, "Second brother Lin, your wedding date will be postponed."

Xing Ji said, "The wedding date of Yusheng and Xueqing cannot be postponed."

Lin Bojun: ...Not only was he unable to marry his wife on time, but he also couldn't marry his precious sister?Do you want to be so miserable?

"If I go back and ask the emperor to bring Ning Jing with me, will I be allowed?" Su Liang asked.

She was serious, because she felt that Ning Jing probably didn't want to go to the household department to drink tea every day, and how interesting it was to go out and play.

Xing Ji shook his head, "No."

Ning Jing is a civil servant, this time the matter is of great importance, Duanmu Yi will not allow it.

Moreover, the Xing family and the rest of the Lin family are in the capital, which is also the prerequisite for Duanmu Yi to rest assured to entrust them with important tasks.

As Su Liang's only family member, Ning Jing had to stay in the capital.

This is an unwritten rule.

……

They went home to pack their luggage, and made an appointment to meet at the military camp outside the city an hour later.

Su Liang walked into the yard carrying the medicine box, and saw Ning Jing sitting by the window, copying a book, with a calm and beautiful profile.

Ning Jing heard the sound and looked over, "Yan Yu is practicing martial arts in the backyard."

Last night when Nian Jincheng came back, this morning Su Liang confessed that the training of Jiao Yanyu should be put on the agenda.

Su Liang walked over, "The emperor asked Zhongxinhou to take Second Brother Lin and me to the northern border to take over the military power of the Wan family. We will set off today."

Hearing this, Ning Jing put down the pen in his hand, "I want to go too."

Su Liang shook his head, "Unless the emperor knows that you are hiding everything, he will definitely not let you go."

After a moment of silence, Ning Jing said, "Forget it."
