He Mulan has always shown herself in the image of being brave and good at fighting. Tuoba Tao has protected her very well. She has hardly offended anyone in the courtroom, nor has she fallen into any conflict, so no one thinks she has anything to do with her. What a powerful political mind, I don't think she has the political means commensurate with her force.
Even she was selected by Tuoba Tao as an envoy to Beiliang, everyone knew that this was a "gold-plated" move by Tuoba Tao to improve her status, because the forces in the army were dominated by Xianbei. The nobles are guarding, even Tuoba Tao can no longer make her rise quickly, and she may only gain military merit by cutting Liang or Yan, and when she is dispatched to Beiliang, He Mulan will be the "General of Pingliang" in the future. And take the first step.
This is also the reason why the people of Beiliang both fear and hate Hua Mulan, but have to please them many times.
But as soon as Juqu Mengxun spoke from He Mulan, he knew that she was by no means the guy with "developed limbs and a simple mind" in the rumors from the outside world. Even if there was an expert behind her, she was definitely her. own skill!
Is there anything scarier than a brave and resourceful general? Even more frightening is that this general is likely to become your enemy in the future!
Juqu Mengxun suddenly had a huge killing intent in his heart, and he almost wanted to get rid of her at all costs and never return to Wei.
He didn't have long to live, but this young man was only in his early twenties. Will Juqu Muqian really be able to withstand the alliance between him and Tuoba Tao in the future
I shudder to think about it.
However, now that He Mulan's huge burden has been shaken away, Juqu Mengxun knew that it was impossible to pretend to be stupid, so his face changed and changed, and he said with a dry smile: "It turned out to be my son, this... It seems that he is not either. What a suitable candidate for…”
Because Juqu Mengxun did not have a prince after the death of Juqu Xingguo, the court in Beiliang had already been divided into two factions. One faction supported Juqu Bodhi, the youngest son of Empress Meng, and the other supported Juqu, the oldest third prince. Mu Qian, the two factions have been competing with each other for a long time, and Juqu Mu Qian's mission to Wei State is the weight won by the Three Princes faction.
As a result, Juqu Mujian did not return after his mission, but Liang State compensated Wei State for a sum of money for the purchase of the mansion, which made the courtiers sent by the queen attack for a long time.
At this time, after He Mulan's words were translated by several courtiers, officials from the Third Prince immediately stood up and shouted loudly:
"The third prince of our country has not returned to Wei State yet. I would like to ask why your country has sent the third prince as an ambassador?"
He Mulan couldn't understand Lu Shui's nonsense, and turned to ask Zheng Zong who was beside him, Zheng Zong told her in a low voice, "They don't know the whereabouts of Juqu Mujian, so they asked you why he didn't come back, and how can those who didn't come back come out again? Make."
He Mulan was about to open his mouth to say that Juqu and Muqian were frequently sick on the road, which slowed down Wei's trip, and later left the team without authorization, but was interrupted by Juqu Mengxun, who was sitting in the hall.
"Mu Jian has returned this morning. He was extremely tired after the long journey. I let him rest in the palace first."
Juqu Mengxun opened his eyes and said nonsense, "He had a sudden illness on the way, and he just learned that there was a famous monk nearby who could be cured. In order to prevent everyone in the embassy from getting sick, he could only leave quietly, and was escorted back to the country by the eminent monk and his entourage. Only one day later than you guys."
This passage was spoken in Lu Shuihu language, obviously intended for the courtiers. After Zheng Zong translated it in Xianbei language in a mocking tone, before He Mulan could open his mouth to refute, there was the hot-tempered Wei Guo envoy. Chen jumped out.
"I won't understand the meaning of what Prince Liang said. It's like we neglected the third prince? He fell ill when he was in Wei State, and he was short of breath even when he got out of bed and walked a few steps. We persuaded him to recuperate in Wei State. , but he insisted on going on the road with us, and he would finish the journey in half a month, because he rested every day and walked for more than a month, and then he ran away by himself!"
This Wei Chen has no great ability, but he is from the Xianbei clan, and he is used to being arrogant at ordinary times. At this time, he puts on the air of a big country and continues to shout: "I want to ask the king of Liang why he sent one The sick and weak are sent to envoys, and if something happens in our country, it will make us embarrassed!"
"His Royal Highness the third prince is in excellent health and proficient in martial arts, how can he be weak!"
"Although you have come to the country to envoy, you can't spit your blood!"
The uneven Wei Chen was fluent in Lu Shui Hu, which was not clearer than He Mulan, who had to rely on Zheng Zong's translation before, so the courtier's rebound was even more severe.
The courtiers of the queen's faction were overjoyed, and some conspiracy theorists even thought that Wei Guo was afraid that Juqu Mujian might become the king of Liang, so he had poisoned his hands, so that Juqu Mujian had to flee back to the country. As for "weak," "ill," and "seeking a doctor," it might be that Wei Guo concealed himself after being poisoned or injured.
There were a lot of people who thought so, and a group of courtiers were talking about it. The Guangming Hall was noisy like a market for a while, and Juqu Mengxun began to feel that the breath in his chest was blocked and he couldn't breathe, and he couldn't spit out a breath.
He also hates it so much that he can't get it back now.
Li Shun thought that the news that Juqu Mengxun died of a serious illness was a trap set by King Liang and forced him to serve the country of Liang. In fact, he did not design this incident, and he didn't even know that he How could such a letter be added to the channel of the secret letter to Li Shun
Juqu Mujian thought that he was about to die, so he recklessly exposed the secret envoy of Fomen in Wei State to ask for help and returned to the country. Along the way, he was attacked by various parties and almost killed him. Fomen suffered heavy casualties. Return by water.
But Juqu Muqian knew that his father was fine as soon as he returned to China. Not only was he fine, but he was also very annoyed that he had left the mission privately and returned to China.
Until then, Juqu Mujian and Juqu Mengxun didn't know that they were all being calculated, and what was even more frightening was that they didn't even know who was calculating them.
I don't know who gave that letter to Li Shun, whether it was really attached to Juqu Mengxun's letter to Li Shun, or was it manipulated in Li Shun's account.
If this matter is not handled properly, Juqu Mujian will be guilty of deceiving the king, and he cannot explain his motives at all, unless Juqu Mengxun says that Li Shun and Liang Guo have colluded, which is obviously impossible .
This dumb loss is settled.
For Juqu Mujian, the scary thing is not only that he almost died on the road, but that once the relationship between Wei and Liang is deadlocked because of his return to China, he doesn't have to fight for a seat, he will be the first lost heart.
No one wants to fight with Wei now.
Poor Juqu Mu Qian originally thought that his father was going to die, so he hurried back to fight for the throne, but his father was fine, which made the relationship between father and son a little bit off. There is a "righteous annihilation" thing.
Precisely because if such a thing happened, it would definitely be Juqu Bodhi who would get the most benefit, and Juqu Muqian had already firmly believed that it was the mother of Juqu Boti, Queen Meng, and the forces behind her.
As the head of the Middle Palace, Empress Meng had access to Juqu Mengxun's study to exchange letters. There were rumors in the palace that there were tunnels leading to all parts of the palace, but the bald royal family walked completely. I didn't catch an insider who could know the path of the tunnel.
It is impossible to say that this queen is boring living in the harem, and has already found a lot of tunnels.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling Juqu Mujian was, he couldn't ask for the matter that was put together by a big hand behind the scenes. In order to keep this son, Juqu Mengxun could only bother to pave the way and try to save the situation.
It's a pity that He Mulan chose to tear his face directly in the courtroom, and did not give Liang Guo any face at all, and directly asked Juqu Mengxun to hand it over.
You must know that with his body, he may collapse at any time. If he really handed over Juqu Mujian to let him go on an envoy, it would be as long as a year, as little as seven or eight months, and maybe he would even go to mourning. It's too late, and Juqu Bodhi will be king at that time.
Juqu Mengxun himself is still swaying. On the one hand, he is afraid that the great Bodhi will become a puppet, and on the other hand, he is afraid that Buddhism's support for Juqu Muqian will make him rely too much on Buddhism, thus draining the country's strength, so he is still fighting. While the two sons observe...
But because Wei Guo was afraid of Juqu Mujian, his heart was gradually inclined towards the third prince.
Bodhi is too young after all.
The courtiers were noisy, and Juqu Mengxun's mind didn't know how much he thought about it. He was thinking about how to deal with the tricks. There was already a courtier from the Meng family who stood up and shouted:
"Please come and confront the Third Prince Xuan!"
"Yes, it is related to the national sports, how can you only listen to one side of the word, please come to the palace quickly!"
Both sides talked a lot, forcing Juqu Mengxun to hand over Juqu Mujian quickly, while He Mulan wanted to see if Juqu Mujian's body had recovered, and if Yuan Po Qiang's words were true Really, naturally, holding a scepter, he asked Juqu Muqian to come out and explain it clearly.
At this time, Juqu Mengxun was unable to ride a tiger, and there was a mess of porridge in the court hall. Under the excited and angry gazes of the envoys of Wei State, Juqu Mengxun could only call in a few eunuchs to give a few words in a low voice, and asked them to invite Juqu Mu Qian came.
Several eunuchs were his true confidants, and as soon as they came out of the Hall of Light, they trotted all the way to the East Palace. Some officials who occupied the last position looked out the door, and saw that several eunuchs did not go to the West Palace where the princes temporarily lived in the palace, but went to the direction of the East Palace, and couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.
About half an hour later, when everyone was impatient, Juqu Muqian with a pale face was led into the hall, sweating profusely, and saluted Juqu Mengxun and He Mulan.
He Mulan looked intently, and saw that although his face was pale, his complexion was gone, and he was not out of breath after running this section of the road. It was obvious that he was in good health.
As soon as the envoy found that he was not as weak as before, everyone was even more panicked. He had already decided that he was deliberately feigning illness to slow down the mission, and he almost didn't point at his nose to scold the despicable villain.
Yuan Poqiang originally waited until it seemed like he was sleeping, but when he heard Juqu Muqian coming, he opened his eyes, and the two eyes shot at him like cold arrows, causing the second monk Juqu Muqian to be puzzled and not knowing where to go. Why did the polite general Hujun suddenly change his face towards him, like an enemy.
The previous envoy of Wei State asked him righteously why he left the team without authorization once, and where he went after leaving the team. Unexpectedly, Juqu Mujian opened his mouth to respond and put all the blame on Li Shun.
"It was Li Shijun who told me that my father was seriously ill. I was worried about my father's health. In addition, I was seriously ill and I was afraid that I would die on the road and drag on the mission, so I left the team and returned in the starry night..."
This is similar to what the envoy of Wei State said, but it is completely wrong with Juqu Mengxun's pretext before. What's wrong, just knowing that there is a famous doctor nearby, Yunyun is even more wrong, and everyone suddenly looked at different expressions. He looked, the hall was silent.
Juqu Mengxun's heart seemed to be immersed in a thousand-year cold pool, and his heart was completely frozen.
This was completely different from what he and his confidants had just ordered. He had no intention of letting Juqu Mu Qianpan bite out Li Shun at all.

Li Shun is already a dead person. Even if he is not, it is of no use. It is a dead and unproven matter. Instead, it arouses the disgust of Wei people, or investigates Li Shun and digs out their secret collusion...
who is it…
Who is plotting...
Juqu Mengxun looked out of the hall with a cold face.
Where are the shadows of those eunuchs
