Chapter 43 Information from the capital

When the Zhou family rebelled, Duke Mu's mansion was implicated once. That time Mu Changtian took out the death-prevention scroll, which barely saved the entire Duke Mu's mansion.

It has only been more than a year, and this kind of thing happened again in Mu Guogong's mansion.

Lu Chen wondered if his father-in-law was really so stupid.

Even if he was really rebellious, he wouldn't have colluded with the remnants of Chen Guo in such a short period of time.

He is not a fool, and now Emperor Xia is in his prime, and his realm has broken through to the realm of a master, so it is definitely not a problem to live to be more than 100 years old.

It is so easy to assassinate Emperor Xia and then overthrow the Great Xia Dynasty.

At this moment, Chu Yuqin hurriedly said to Lu Chen: "Chen'er, Zixuan just gave birth to a child, and she must not let her know about it."

Although there is no such thing as postpartum depression in this era, people in this era also know that women are more emotionally sensitive after giving birth.

If Mu Zixuan found out that the entire Mu family was imprisoned, it might affect her recovery.

Lu Chen said: "Yes, I understand."

Having said that, Lu Chen looked at Qin Yushan and asked, "Commander Qin, did my father suffer any injuries?"

Qin Yushan replied: "Go back to your lord, Your Majesty was not injured. It is said that when the remnants of Chen Guo assassinated His Majesty, the national teacher was in front of His Majesty."

Hearing this, Lu Chen laughed.

Then he said: "Are these Chen Guo remnants so stupid? How dare they assassinate a great master in front of a great master?"

Although Situ Ce has never said that he is a great master, it is no secret that he is a great master.

After all, it is the national pillar of the Great Xia Dynasty. If there is no great master's strength, how can it be called the national pillar.

When Chen Guo's remnants assassinated Emperor Xia, did they really not do any homework?
Lu Chen continued to ask: "How many assassins did the remnants of Chen Guo send to assassinate my father? What about the strength of these assassins?"

Qin Yushan replied: "According to the information collected by colleagues in the capital, Chen Guo's remnants sent a total of [-] assassins to sneak into the palace. Most of these assassins are around the sixth rank, and the strongest one is There are two half-step masters in total."

Hearing Qin Yushan's report, Lu Chen didn't know how to complain.

Send thirty assassins, two half-step grandmasters, to assassinate a grandmaster in a heavily guarded place like the imperial palace.

Moreover, they didn't inquire beforehand whether there were any more powerful figures around the emperor. These assassins really had some problems with their brains.

Lu Chen even doubted whether these remnants of the Chen country were really the remnants of the Chen country.

Lu Chen immediately asked: "Did Jin Yiwei investigate these remnants of Chen Guo? Are they really Chen Guo's remnants?"

Qin Yushan said: "My lord, Commander Liang sent someone to investigate, and confirmed that the remnants of Chen Guo entered the palace, but after the investigation by Commander Liang, the fact that Chen Guo's remnants escaped from the capital may have nothing to do with Mu Guogong's mansion. .”

Qin Yushan also knew what Lu Chen wanted to know, so he directly revealed Liang Zong's investigation.

After hearing Qin Yushan's words, Lu Chen fell into silence.

Emperor Xia first used the Zhou family's rebellion to make a fuss, and took away the death-prevention scroll from Duke Mu's mansion, then lifted Mu Changtian's military power, and finally disbanded the Huben Army, and assigned the soldiers of the Huben Army to other camps .

Now he is using Chen Guo's remnants to put Mu Guogong's family in prison. His father is planning to kill the donkey.

No matter how much Lu Chen was a political novice, he basically understood what Emperor Xia wanted to do.

Mu Changtian and Zhou Wangtian who rebelled more than a year ago are known as the two great kings of the Great Xia Dynasty. Now Zhou Wangtian has been wiped out, and the other Mu Changtian is about to go down.

With the destruction of their two heavenly kings, Emperor Xia's control over the Great Xia Dynasty reached a level never seen before in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty. He took all the military power into his own hands. What is he planning to do?
Seeing that Lu Chen hadn't spoken for a long time, Chu Yuqin sighed and said, "Chen'er, your father is probably planning to attack the family."

Hearing this, Lu Chen reacted.

My own father tried every means to take back the military power, he must have something to do, otherwise he risked shaking the country's foundation and tried his best to take back the military power for what to do.

If you want to attack a family, you really need to have soldiers in your hands. I didn't expect that my father, the emperor, would have such courage.

In the past dynasties, not many emperors dared to do anything to the family casually.

It is said that "a family of a thousand years, a dynasty of a hundred years." Even if a dynasty is overthrown, those aristocratic families still exist, and it is common for aristocratic families to monopolize courts.

Lu Chen has to admire him for his father's self-motivation.

But having said that, his current situation is a bit embarrassing.

First of all, his mother's family is from the Chu family, the largest family in the south of the Yangtze River. Secondly, his concubine is the daughter of Mu Changtian...

Lu Chen then looked at Qin Yushan and asked, "Did the imperial court say how to deal with this king's concubine?"

Qin Yushan replied: "This issue has been debated several times in the court. The eight princes think that the princess should be brought back to the capital to deal with it together, while the first prince thinks that the princess is already the wife of the prince and should not continue to be regarded as Duke Mu. People from the government."

Lu Chen said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, there are still people in the capital who speak for me, a good-for-nothing prince."

At this time, a soldier from the palace entered the training ground.

"My lord, there is a warrior outside who claims to be the Jinyiwei, asking to see him."

Speaking of this, the soldiers of the Wangfu glanced at the guards in brocade clothes on the training ground, and then continued: "That man wears the same clothes as them."

Lu Chen said directly: "Let him in."

"Yes, my lord."

Afterwards, the soldiers of the royal residence brought the later Jinyi guard into the martial arts training ground.

After seeing Lu Chen, the Jin Yiwei soldier immediately knelt down and said, "See you, my lord."

Lu Chen said, "Get up."

At first, Lu Chen thought that the guard in brocade had just arrived at the palace because of the long journey, but after the guard in brocade got up, he immediately took out a bamboo tube from his waist and handed it to Lu Chen.

"Your Majesty, there is a letter from the capital saying that Mu Guogong's government is suspected of colluding with the remnants of Chen Guo, and has been exiled to the northwest by His Majesty."

Lu Chen was a little surprised, he had just taken over the Jinyiwei, and the Jinyiwei's intelligence agency started to operate.

Lu Chen immediately took the bamboo tube from the Jinyiwei soldier, took out a message from it, and read it carefully.

Through the information above, Lu Chen instantly understood that this was a regular exchange of information between Jin Yiwei, not because the Jin Yiwei in the capital knew in advance that he, the Northern King, was their master.

Seeing Lu Chen's serious face, Chu Yuqin asked, "Chen'er, what's wrong?"

Lu Chen replied: "Commander Liang said in this information that when Mu Guogong was exiled in the northwest, he would be assassinated by many forces. Now that Mu Guogong's skills have been abolished, he is just an ordinary person. The whole family probably won't be able to reach the northwest."
