Chapter 691
In the next few days, Xiao Muying became even busier. She was busy watching the news from all over the city, so as to know the true attitude of all the court officials towards Yun Qingjin.He was busy using various means to alienate the relationship between Young Master Li and several important officials in the court, especially the prime minister.

Then she ran around to expand her industry, obtained a steady stream of money and food to expand her power, and radiated the fine work power in her hands to develop in all directions.

The news sent back from secret workers lurking in every corner of the city under the cover of servants, concubines, guards, etc. is often the most private and true, together with all the news that the girl in the Green Willow Court found through the bed. , let Xiao Muying know that most of the officials in the court have accepted the fact that Yun Qingjin has gained power, and are ready to be loyal to him in order to win his favor after he ascends the throne.

Correspondingly, there is a crowd of people in Zijin's mansion.

The important officials in the court expressed their allegiance to Yun Qingjin one after another, and more and more capable people and strangers came to Zijin's mansion. Except for some people who ate and drank, Yun Qingjin, whoever had some talents He recruited as many people as possible from Fuchu to become his followers.

Afterwards, the personal visits of Prime Minister Xie Chengzhi and Da Sima Xi Gaozhuo increased Yun Qingjin's momentum even more, indicating that Yun Qingjin was getting closer and closer to the position of the prince.

Regarding Xie Chengzhi's visit to Yun Qingjin in person, Yun Qingjin also knew that it was due to Xiao Muying.

It's because Xiao Muying not only went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to lobby for a while, but also planned not long ago, so that a concubine who had already entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and was always liked by Xie Chengzhi seduced a very important retainer in Zili's Mansion , After the incident was revealed, it naturally caused a conflict between Xie Chengzhi and the young master Li.

But neither of them would know that Xie Chengzhi's concubine was actually Xiao Muying's.

Young Master Li thinks highly of himself and refuses to admit his mistakes to Xie Chengzhi. Xie Chengzhi also heard that many servants in the mansion secretly passed on the disrespectful words that Young Master Li made against him because of this matter. To discern whether those words are true or not, he hated Young Master Li for this.

Then he can only be loyal to Young Master Jin wholeheartedly, otherwise even if he doesn't care about the fact that Young Master Li's retainer seduced his concubine, Young Master Li won't let him go easily after he gains power.

In this way, until March 26, it is said to be an auspicious day.

On this day, at the request of Mrs. Jun and the suggestion of several important ministers in the court, Duke Yun finally agreed to adopt Yun Qingjin under Mrs. Jun's knee as his stepson, and held a grand ceremony.

Everyone in Xiaocheng also waited quietly, waiting for Duke Yun to formally enshrine Yun Qingjin as his son.

However, one late night at the end of March not long after, a sudden change occurred.

This day Xiao Muying read as usual until late at night before she turned off the lights and went to bed. At this time, she had just closed her eyes when she heard a sudden knock on the door.

Xiao Muying who was in a light sleep immediately opened her eyes and sat up, and raised her voice to ask: "What's wrong?"

"Something went wrong, sister!"

Jie Sheng's voice came from outside the door, it sounded hasty and panicked.

Xiao Muying frowned slightly, lifted the quilt, got off the bed, put on her shoes, hurriedly put on her coat, walked over to open the door and left the inner room, walked quickly through the back hall to the front door, opened the door, and asked Jiesheng in a deep voice: "What happened?" What's the matter?"

Jie Sheng was full of panic, and replied: "Sister, something happened in the palace. It is said that the king was poisoned and died. Mr. Jin has already entered the palace after receiving the letter from Mrs. Jun. Send someone to come Tell your sister."

"I see." Xiao Muying bowed her head while fastening the buttons of her coat.

Jie Sheng listened to her tone in surprise, and felt that she didn't seem surprised or shocked, but rather sad.

"Sister?" Jie Sheng couldn't help calling out with a puzzled face.

Xiao Muying buttoned up her clothes and flicked the folds of her clothes, then looked up at Jie Sheng, and said: "Jie Sheng, you go to find Jia Weiwei now, and let him immediately impose law on the whole city in the name of hunting down assassins, and strictly enforce the law." Jia guards the mansions of all the officials and young masters, especially Young Master Li and Young Master Cheng. They must not be allowed to leave the house. Jie Sheng, you tell Jia Weiwei that I reminded you that the Prime Minister and Da Sima have already entered the palace. If he goes, Young Master Jin will definitely ascend to the throne, tonight is an excellent opportunity for him to express his allegiance to Young Master Jin, if he misses it and releases any young master, then his life will never be easy in the future!"

Jiesheng listened carefully to Xiao Muying's words, nodded heavily and said, "I see, sister."

Xiao Muying thought for a while, then continued: "Also, Jiesheng, you go and tell Liao Xu to have a look at the mansion of Da Sima and the prime minister immediately, if they really entered the palace, then let's go. Go inform them and let them quickly enter the palace."

"Okay!" Jiesheng nodded in response, and asked again: "Is there anything else, sister?"

"It's gone, you guys go quickly." Xiao Muying said hastily, and walked quickly to the front yard with Jie Sheng who turned around.
