One is his sister Song Qian, and the other is his Taoist partner. According to their employment records at the Imperial City Division, Song Xuan's Taoist partner is named Lu Qingxue."
"Lu Qingxue?"
Zhao Pan muttered the name, "Given Song Xuan's ability, the Taoist partner he chose must be extraordinary. In the Wanling Continent, the surname Lu is also a well-known surname... Could it be a saint from a ninth-level sect?"
"I don't know either." The old eunuch bowed and said, "The time is too short, and the information collected is still insufficient. Moreover, Lu Qingxue had disappeared before Song Xuan and his group came to the imperial capital.
As for where exactly he went, it is hard to determine for now. After all, the Wanling Continent is really too big..."
Zhao Pan rubbed his brow with his index finger, "So, what you mean is that if you want Song Xuan to leave the imperial capital, you can only do something with Song Qian and Lu Qingxue...
But now that Lu Qingxue has disappeared, the only person Song Xuan can risk his life to rescue is Song Qian, right?
The old eunuch bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I mean!"
"This is difficult to handle!" Zhao Pan said helplessly, "Why would Song Qian leave the imperial capital for no reason... By the way, what level is this woman's cultivation at?"
"This...I don't know either!"
Zhao Pan looked at him, "Do you really not know, or do you not want to say?"
"I really don't know. It's really hard to judge this woman's cultivation level."
The old eunuch sighed and said, "You say she's weak, but she wasn't even afraid when he led his troops to surround the Duke's Mansion last night and Duke Cheng showed up.
But she is strong. According to the information collected by this old slave, when Song Qian was in Tiannan Territory, she was kidnapped by an elder of the Mahayana Buddhist sect, and was later rescued by Song Xuan.
Zhao Pan narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, "She has a brother who is in the Mahayana stage as her backer, so it's not surprising that she is not afraid of Duke Cheng.
It's interesting that she was once kidnapped by Mahayana Buddhists...
By the way, are there any Mahayana Buddhist forces within our territory?"
The old eunuch said: "The large-scale ones have been destroyed, but there must still be some secret spy bases.
The Mahayana Buddhism is deeply rooted in Yaoqing and is one of the top nine-level sects in the Wanling World. It is much stronger than the Daluo Sect. As far as I know, they have strongholds in almost every dynasty.
In our imperial capital, perhaps an old monk sweeping the floor is actually an ascetic of the Mahayana Buddhist sect."
Zhao Pan's eyes lit up, "Find an opportunity to contact the people of Mahayana Buddhism."
"What does your majesty mean?"
"Since Mahayana Buddhism has kidnapped Victoria Song once, I think they wouldn't mind kidnapping her a second time.
Contact the people of Mahayana Buddhism and tell them that as long as they are willing to kidnap Song Qian and take her out of the imperial capital, I will allow Mahayana Buddhism to preach in my Daosong territory!
Aren't they planning a Journey to the West? As long as this matter is completed, I am willing to cooperate with their Journey to the West missionary plan!"
The old eunuch was silent for a moment, then asked in a somewhat dry voice, "Your Majesty, is it worth it?"
"What's worth it?"
The old eunuch whispered, "The Second Prince is actually not bad. I have watched him grow up since he was a child. To be honest, he is actually more suitable to be the crown prince.
The reason why Your Majesty favors Crown Prince Zhao Gou is that you feel that after the crown prince ascends the throne, the court can transition smoothly, right?
But now, the situation is different. In the court today, the civil and military prime ministers and the noble groups have actually all sided with the second prince. Together with Song Xuan, the inspector of the Imperial City, the second prince has basically been recognized by most of the forces in the imperial capital.
On the contrary, if the Crown Prince were to ascend the throne by force, there would inevitably be unrest in the court. Wouldn't this go against your Majesty's original intention?"
Chapter 795: Your Majesty, what’s the difference between you and a traitor?
"Going against the original intention?"
Zhao Pan looked at the sky outside the room and sighed softly, "That's true. Right now, I'm not thinking from the perspective of an emperor, but rather from the perspective of a cultivator and a husband."
He subconsciously clenched his fists. "You know best why I was able to ascend the throne. Back then, I married the Saintess of the Daluo Sect and received the support of the Daluo Sect behind the scenes."
Because of this, my ancestors saw my abilities, and I eventually stood out among my brothers and sat on the supreme throne.
On the day I ascended the throne, I promised the Queen that as long as I was alive, she would help my child and hers to become the next emperor.
Back then, I was inconspicuous among all the princes, but she resolutely chose me. I have always remembered this affection in my heart.
Over the years, I have let many people down, but to her alone, I do not want to break my promise. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will try to help the Crown Prince ascend to power!"
The old eunuch was silent for a moment, then bowed. "Your Majesty values friendship and loyalty... I will go find someone from the Mahayana Buddhist sect, but I'm not sure they'll be willing to take on this mission."
Zhao Pan waved his hand and said, "We have to give it a try after all."
"The old slave has withdrawn!"
The old eunuch bowed again and left the palace. He looked up at the sky, and the respect on his face disappeared, replaced by a sneer.
"Loyalty and righteousness? You're so righteous! '
"What wife, what queen, what promises? It's all bullshit. You've been used to having everything go your way your whole life, and now you feel your authority is being challenged, and you can't accept it, you can't tolerate it?"
"Dealing with Song Xuan can be said to be for the sake of your imperial authority. But to deal with a minister, you invite the wolf into the house and bring in the Mahayana Buddhist sect. How is this different from selling out the country?"
In essence, what's the difference between you and Zhao Gou?
Standing at the gate of the palace, the old eunuch was silent for a long time. Finally, he gritted his teeth, flashed his body, and disappeared on the spot.
When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the Second Prince's residence.
The second prince, Zhao Zhe, was sitting in his study, sorting out the list of personnel under the crown prince. Next, he was going to find some people on the list and put a big cross on them.
Afterwards, this list will be handed over to Senior Song Xuan.
Those who are crossed out will soon appear in the Imperial City Prison.
After finishing the list, he subconsciously stretched himself. When he looked up, he was horrified to find that there was a person standing opposite him!
"Eunuch Tong?"
When the second prince saw who was coming, he was delighted at first.
If there was anyone in the entire palace who treated him the best, apart from his own mother, it was only Eunuch Tong, who treated him like a prince.
He has always respected the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department who was close to his father.
But then, Zhao Zhe seemed to have thought of something, a bitter look on his face, and he sighed, "Eunuch, is my father going to take action against me?"
Eunuch Tong shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty is not aware that this old servant is here today!"
"What does the father-in-law mean?"
"I came here to tell His Highness something."
Eunuch Tong hesitated for a moment, then spoke slowly, "His Majesty is planning to take action against Song Qian in order to deal with Song Xuan. He has already begun contacting the masters of Mahayana Buddhism to abduct Song Qian outside the imperial capital and force Song Xuan to leave the capital to rescue her!"
Zhao Zhe stood up suddenly, his face filled with shock, "Father, is he crazy?"
The Mahayana Buddhism is called a sect, but in the eyes of many dynasties, it is just an ambitious sect. Except for Yaoqing, almost all of the seven dynasties are very wary of this sect.
I never thought that my father would even collude with such a sinister sect in order to deal with a minister!
What’s the difference between this and selling out the country?
"Your Majesty is going crazy!" Eunuch Tong said solemnly, "Your Majesty has been winning all his life. He won't allow himself to lose. This is his way! No matter how difficult the process, he firmly believes that he will win!
In order to win, he has begun to do everything he can to win!"
Zhao Zhe took a deep breath and bowed, "Thank you for telling me, eunuch. If there ever comes a day... I will never forget your kindness!"
Eunuch Tong nodded and said, "You should stay in the imperial capital these days and don't go anywhere.
There are many things going on with the Crown Prince. Now that the story has begun, his crimes will be revealed bit by bit. All you have to do is wait patiently!"
After giving some instructions, Eunuch Tong disappeared again in a flash.
Zhao Zhe pondered for a moment, took out the transmission jade slip, and sent a message to Senior Song Xuan.
......
Imperial City Division.
In the Inspector General's Office, Lord Song Xuan was half lying on a chair with his legs on the table, listening to his secretary Sun Muxue reporting to him.
"Sir, all the people and files from the Yongchang Marquisate have been transferred to our Imperial City Department."
Sun Muxue looked very excited, "The Ministry of Justice wanted to put on airs, but after learning that it was your order, everyone's expressions became very interesting.
I want to exercise some control, but I don’t want to jeopardize the authority of the Ministry of Justice. However, I am also worried that if I overdo it, I will anger you, my Lord…”
When talking about interesting things, Sun Muxue laughed heartily.
These days, ever since something happened at home, she has been feeling fearful, uneasy, depressed and uncomfortable. Today, she can finally feel proud of herself.
She looked cautiously at the somewhat lazy Lord Song. It was this seemingly free and unrestrained man who changed her fate with just one sentence.
To put it bluntly, two days ago, she, Sun Muxue, had already stepped into the door of the Music Bureau. As long as her father's crime was confirmed, as the eldest daughter of the Yongchang Marquis's family, being sent to the Music Bureau would almost be her fate!
That period was a dark and hopeless time for her, which was suffocating.
Until that day, she was taken to the adult's office and took off her clothes in front of the adult.
Then, her fate took a completely different turn!
At this moment, she felt a little regretful.
She was too young and too naive at the time. If she had moved a little faster that day in front of the adults, and not only taken off her skirt but also the bellyband underneath, would the ending have been different?
She, Sun Muxue, will no longer be just a simple secretary, but will become the mistress of the Song family?
What a pity, there is only one chance. If you miss it, it will be difficult to get such a good opportunity again.
On the recliner, Song Xuan, who was listening to Sun Muxue's work report, suddenly raised his hand and waved.
"Alright, let's leave it at that for now. As for how to proceed with the follow-up work, you and Wang Qilin should study more. I still have things to attend to, so please step aside!"
Sun Muxue did not dare to hesitate, and immediately bowed and retreated, closing the door behind her.
At the same time, Song Xuan had a communication jade slip in his hand. After sensing it with his spiritual sense, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Zhao Pan, Zhao Pan, there are so many ways, but you chose the most difficult one."
"Originally, I planned that you would just abdicate. But now, snap! You're going to die!"
Chapter 796 If we can’t kill him this time, I think Song will surely perish at his hands!
Inside the Song family residence.
Song Xuan sat on the stone bench and watched Song Qian training him.
Well, yes, she was indeed training herself.
In front of Victoria Song at this moment, there is a woman who looks exactly like her. She looks cool and aloof, but if you look closely, she has a bit of silly air and doesn't seem smart enough.
"Take a break!"
"stand at attention!"
"Look to the right!"
"Very good!" Victoria Song looked at herself standing opposite with satisfaction and asked, "Do you understand what to do next?"
"understand!"
The not-so-smart Victoria Song said, "Traveling, being carefree, in short, you have to look easy to control, so that people will think you're easy to kidnap at first sight!"
"Good, you understood it quickly!"
Victoria Song stepped forward and patted her shoulder, "Heishan, remember, from now on, you are Victoria Song, the eldest daughter of the Song family is you, don't make any mistakes!"
That’s right, the Victoria Song in front of us is Heishan.
In order to avoid revealing her tracks, Victoria Song left a mark of her spiritual consciousness on her body and even changed her aura. It would be difficult for people who were not familiar with Miss Song to see any clues.
Of course, this number of changes cannot be concealed for too long from an old monster in the Mahayana stage. As long as a Mahayana monster perceives carefully, it is easy to find the problem.
But this is exactly the effect that Song Xuan and his sister want.
There must always be some flaws left for the other party to see the clues, otherwise the scheming Old Monster Song will be careless and not care at all, and will not be on guard at all. On the contrary, Zhao Pan will hesitate and shrink back, and dare not take action.
......
In the next few days, the imperial capital was not very peaceful.
Because the prince's case required a joint trial by the three courts, and the officials involved as well as various witnesses and evidence were extremely complicated, soldiers from various government offices could often be seen in the imperial capital deploying in groups on the streets.
Even the troops from the Imperial City Bureau can be seen everywhere, ready for any emergency.
