Chapter 745: Hijack

Speaking of this, Wei Changying's face broke into a smile and he called Lianju: "You stay and watch them pack their things. These are priceless things. Don't let any mistakes happen carelessly!"

He stood up and asked Song Zaishui, "Shall we go to the next room to talk?"

"Did you also think of Gu Sisi?" The two of them sat down next door. The servant brought tea and was dismissed. Song Zaishui watched the door close and said softly, "Although the Gu family claims that the old lady was ill and only invited Xinmiao, But when she met Gu Rouzhang yesterday, she accidentally let it slip that it seemed... the one who really wanted to invite Xinmiao was Gu Sisi! "

"This is Changfeng's third engagement." Wei Changying sighed, "Empress Qiu told me earlier that Changfeng may not be suitable for marrying a daughter of a famous family. On the contrary, a woman who is not from a famous family will grow old with him. Old. But at that time the queen wanted to make Chang Feng Shang Princess Xian'an..."

Song Zaishui raised his eyebrows and said: "So Gu Sisi is the Queen's slave? Queen Qiu is getting more and more capable now. Even all the ladies in the deep house..."

"It's Liu Ruoyu, or Qiu Baoniang's abilities are getting better and better." Wei Changying said calmly, "I suspect she has dragged the Liu family into trouble!"

"oh?"

"She revealed to me before that she was instigating Queen Qiu to seize the crown prince for the eldest prince. Although I don't know how things went, she must have done a lot of tricks. Especially the Liu Ruoye incident caused tensions between the gentry and the nouveau riche. -Although Liu Ruoye's words provided the court with a way to resolve this dispute, which is to direct all the blame at Beirong... However, if you can use the gentry as an excuse, why would your Majesty and the upstarts not do it? "

Wei Changying sneered and said, "Especially treason, which is something that no one can tolerate. Before Liu Ruoye's incident came out, if the Liu family knew Liu Ruoyu's identity, they still had hope of annihilating their relatives; but now, the Liu family wants to If you want to kill your relatives for the sake of justice, you have to consider whether your majesty will use all his tricks to catch them all..."

"Liu Ruoyu's move was really powerful, and he tied up the Liu family." Song Zaishui laughed, and his face became serious, "But changing dynasties is not that easy. Although there have been frequent good news in the southwest recently, there is still a royal city that has not been taken, right? Even if it is taken, After coming down, it has been governed by the four kings of the southwest for many years. How can the people's hearts be settled in a short time? Even in places like Dayong, it will not be settled for a long time. The eldest prince... is too young, and I heard that he has a very temperament. Honest…”

"What's wrong with being honest?" Wei Changying said calmly, "We don't have enough talent to govern the country? Can't we just run the world for him?"

Song Zaishui said: "I know this, but the question is where is the upstart?"

"The new rich can only get ahead if they have real abilities." Wei Changying said, "So after the eldest prince ascends the throne, even if he does not get real power, his status will not be a problem. Because without his existence, there will be no relationship between the new rich and us. It needs to be strangled directly - otherwise, no matter how stupid Queen Qiu is, she will not agree to Liu Ruoyu's plan - she can't just plot her husband's death and have her son's world snatched away in the blink of an eye, right?"

Song Zaishui narrowed his eyes and said: "In this case, there is only one last question left: That man is still in the southwest, with so many good ministers and famous generals around him, how should we deal with him?"

"He is still needed in the southwest war." Guard Chief Ying said, "Liu Ruoyu means to wait until he returns to Beijing before taking action."

"This is not good." Song Zaishui said, "When he returns to Beijing, he will definitely bring a large number of troops! By then, if someone has doubts, or has ulterior motives, and incites mutiny... who can control the situation? ? Yaoye has been resting for so long, and his prestige in the military has declined; although Mo Binwei is your niece-in-law, he was cultivated by Wei Xinyong, so he may not be willing to stand on our side, and his prestige may not be as good as theirs. In the end, the situation was favorable to us.”

Wei Changying said: "There is nothing we can do about it. This matter is too big. For people like us, when it comes to such things, we either take action together or no one takes action openly. We always instigate people who have nothing to do with us. Let's go and do it, so as not to bring down the whole clan when things fail - now Liu Ruoyu has taken the initiative to take charge. She is a woman who knows nothing about military strategy. How can she plot against someone thousands of miles away? Besides, if there are our men in the camp, why wait? Liu Ruoyu?”

Song Zaishui thought for a while and said: "Okay, how to do this, let's let it go first. Have you found a scapegoat?"

"I was planning to talk to you about this in two days." Wei Changying whispered almost close to her ear, "Try to tell cousin Su Wu, the four kings of the southwest, to let one go on the battlefield and privately He must be killed in such a way that no one can recognize him! Whoever is missing will be the one who did it!"

"So now that everyone has reached an agreement, we are just waiting for that person to die?" Song Zaishui murmured, "Who will be in charge then? Yao Ye?"

Wei Changying shook his head: "He was hurt back then, and Doctor Ji personally told him not to worry about it anymore. It's none of his business what happened in the past two years, and I won't even tell him."

"Since we have to take into account the checks and balances from the nouveau riche, then the person in charge must also be a nouveau riche." Song Zaishui said, "In our families, it is estimated that our natal families are more accepted by the nouveau riche, right?" Song Jiawei said The family is good at civil affairs and should be in charge of political affairs, and there is no threat from powerful private soldiers.

You must know that Shen Su and Liu Shanzhan are also very famous. Even if Wen Yaozi has nominally taken back military power, his fear will not be eliminated in a short time.

Especially for these three families, except for the Su family, which is slightly better, the Shen family and the Liu family grew up in the flames of war - people these days are most concerned about their family members. They let people move for no reason. Even the emperor cannot say this! The parents of the Shen family and the Liu family decided not to let these two families have military power... That was impossible!

Therefore, whether it is Wen Yaozi or the new rich after losing Wen Yaozi, they will definitely not worry about the growth of the three Shen, Su and Liu families.

I would rather choose Song, Wei, and Duanmu.

These three families all majored in martial arts, and the Wei family is of course the most famous today.

One advantage the Song family has over the Duanmu family is that Concubine Shan was sent to the palace by the Duanmu family...

Concubine Shan was so arrogant when she was in power. Once she fell completely into the hands of Queen Qiu, even if the Queen didn't follow Empress Lu's example, she would definitely not treat her favorably. And if Queen Qiu doesn't want to see Concubine Shan, will she have a good impression of the Duanmu family who sent Concubine Shan to the palace and has been supporting her to exclude herself, the Queen of Yuan Dynasty

In this way, the advantages of the Song family and the Wei family are obvious.

"Actually, the most likely candidate is Changfeng." Song Zaishui sighed, "The Song family has no particularly outstanding talents recently. Besides, the eldest prince is still in Ruiyu Hall!"

Wei Changying also thinks so - if the eldest prince successfully ascends the throne, the Wei family will definitely take advantage.

Unless Qi's temperament changes drastically after hearing about it, the glory of the Wei family in Fengzhou will definitely be able to overwhelm that of the former Wei Dynasty.

But now that the matter has not yet happened, she still said: "We will talk about these things later. Now the matter has not been successful yet?"

"Then let's talk about Gu Sisi first." Song Zaishui frowned and said, "The queen is determined to surrender Princess Xian'an to Changfeng, so Gu Sisi may die this time!"

Wei Changying frowned: "When the queen said that, I didn't expect that she would dare to do this, or that she could do this... Can't she expose her to the Gu family now? I now understand that the Liu family is now mood."

Neither the Liu family nor Liu Ruoye dared to expose Liu Ruoyu, because if the latter pretended to be the Liu family's daughter, once the matter was revealed, the Liu family would not be able to escape at all!

The same is true for Wei Changying now - although she has not personally participated much in the plan to seize the crown prince, she has not discussed this matter with Queen Qi so far. The problem is... she has a lot of connections!

How could she dismantle the queen

In fact, even if there is no such thing as seizing the crown prince, it is not easy for a minister's wife to do anything to dismantle the queen...

If Queen Qiu had revealed the news to her before she planned to do this, she might as well have stopped her. The problem is that this time the Gu family suddenly wants to invite Duanmu Xinmiao - this is not because Wei Changying is not caring enough about his future sister-in-law, but because she has to take care of the Shen family first. Now that Wei Changfeng does not live in the Shen Mansion, for At his fiancée's house, Wei Changying was also under constant supervision. How could he keep an eye on her like a thief

Even Liu Bing'er didn't have time to look so closely.

All in all, she was being held hostage.

"Gu Sisi's side... things have already happened. It's useless for you to regret now. Let's see if Xin Miao can recover." Song Zaishui frowned and said, "Don't you think you have another headache now? That's right. If Gu Sisi really can’t marry Changfeng, then is Changfeng Princess Shang Xian’an?”

This question made Wei Changying's face darken, and he said after a long while: "I can't do this job. I have to write a letter back to Fengzhou to ask the elders for advice."

"Princess Xian'an has only been a princess for a few years, and Pei Changfeng has really been wronged by Changfeng." Song Zaishui muttered, "But I heard that she has a good temperament and is not very old. If you really want to praise her, send a few old people to train her. Training, if you think about it, it won’t be too embarrassing..."

"That's not the problem." Wei Changying sighed, "The problem is that Princess Xian'an is infertile, which means that if Changfeng marries her, Xiu'er will be the only legitimate son in the future!"

Song Zaishui asked in surprise: "Is this true or false?"

"I was there when Doctor Ji made the diagnosis, how can it be false?" Wei Changying rubbed his forehead, "The queen told me at the beginning that Princess Xian'an would love Xiu'er as if she were her own flesh and blood. The problem is, Changfeng only has a legitimate son, which is too little! Even if he can have a bastard... he is not as noble as a legitimate son!"

"But let me tell you the truth: if the eldest prince inherits the great treasure, Princess Shang Xian'an will definitely benefit a lot. After all, she is the only princess so far." Song Zaishui muttered, "The system of this dynasty has been inherited from the previous dynasty. The Wei Dynasty always dotes on princesses, and the consort should probably be reused. Didn't you look after the then Princess Linchuan and get promoted successively? The one from Anji was an occasional exception... People like us don't marry common people, so there's nothing special about it. For this reason, I can’t bear to go to the Lord—if the consort comes from a nouveau riche, I’m afraid he will get into trouble in the future.”

"We, the noble clan, cannot possibly squeeze out all the new nobles. Their climate has already been established!" Wei Changying said seriously, "Otherwise, why keep the eldest prince?"

Song Zaishui thought for a while and then said: "The Gu family has no confirmation yet... Maybe there will be a turn for the better?"

"Let's wait until they get the confirmation letter." Wei Changying turned the bracelet on his wrist and said without hope. (To be continued)
