Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 142 Conspiracy
The second prince's departure from the capital didn't cause much trouble, and he didn't pay much attention to whether Xue Qing had a backup, Yun Xi.If the Duke Protector really had a problem, they would definitely hand it over, and Yun Xi just waited for the result.

The third prince has been acting frequently recently.

Marquis Wu got a "accidental" chance to get the list of personnel placed by Xue Qing's party in the barracks, and he was very pleasantly surprised.After a night of plotting with his henchmen, he finally launched an operation.

The next day when he went to court, Marquis Wu made a report, saying that corruption has gradually developed in the army recently, and some people use their power to sell military horses privately for huge profits.

When Emperor Jing heard this, he was very angry. The national treasury was empty at first, but after secretly cutting off several states, the revenue of the treasury decreased a lot.Hundreds of officials don't know these things, and only a few of his confidants know how poor the national treasury is.

If not, how could he have given up the opportunity to visit the Shoukang Palace just for 30 taels of silver?Now that there is corruption in the army, how can we not make him angry.

On the spot, Marquis Wu was ordered to investigate the matter with full authority, and he promised that once it was confirmed, he would be killed first and played later.

Marquis Wu was overjoyed when he saw that the plan had succeeded.

Xue Qing looked at the uncharacteristically Marquis Wu and frowned. Marquis Wu used to have a disposition that would never take matters into his own hands, but Xue Qing couldn't see through this trick today, but he didn't stop him.

This made Xue Qing regret it after thinking about it in the future!
After Wuhou got the order, he immediately went to the army.He is also very famous in the army, and with the support of Jingbian Hou and Xuanlao Wangye, he is confident.

He is still very capable of being a Marquis of Wu. Every time he stays in a military camp for a day, many people are arrested.

Marquis Wu arrested dozens of people in a row, and there were people from all sides, so Xue Qing didn't care, and just thought it was a coincidence.

It wasn't until dozens of people were arrested in the Huwei Army, including General Xie Qi, that Xue Qing felt that something was wrong.

The Huwei army was originally under the jurisdiction of Zhang Qiyong. After his accident, Emperor Jing gave the soldier talisman to the old prince, and after the army was stabilized, he took back the soldier talisman and took charge of it himself.Xie Qi was the general selected by Emperor Jing.

Emperor Jing was also a little dissatisfied when he heard the news, after all Xie Qi was his man.But after he had a secret talk with Marquis Wu and the third prince, he didn't say much.

He didn't say much. First, he agreed with Wuhou's approach, and second, he was terrified.

He was very happy when he got the Tiger's Mighty Army, but thinking about it now is really ridiculous.The person I chose to be in charge was actually Xue Qing's dark chess player. If something happens in the future, I'm afraid I don't even know how I died.

Who else can believe it?Emperor Jing fell down on his dragon chair, feeling extremely empty at the moment.

Xue Qing knew something was wrong when Emperor Jing didn't move for two days.

As early as a few days ago, he started to deal with this matter, but he didn't expect that Marquis Wu's attack would be accurate and ruthless this time. What a powerful person.

This time it can be said to be a heavy loss!
He has always been weaker in the military's control.It was better to have Zhang Qiyong in the early days, but now those who hold great power in the military ignore him even more.Originally, there was still a great general Weiyuan who could fight for him, but now he is not in Beijing.

Thinking of this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, how could it be such a coincidence?How did they know their dark lines so clearly?
In the past few days, Marquis Wu has changed from his previous low-key style, and went to various mansions in a high-profile manner to arrest people.

Xue Qing arranged several retreats but was blocked by an unknown force.If he didn't know that someone was targeting him at this time, he wouldn't be a powerful leftist.

Yunxi was stunned for a while when she learned that someone blocked the retreat arranged by Xue Qing, except for Xiao Muyun, she couldn't think of anyone who not only had this ability but also would do it!
With Xiao Muyun secretly intercepting, Yunxi is much more relaxed, and can focus on Xue Qing's dark chess with all his strength without any worries.

Xue Qing didn't know how many people Marquis Wu knew, but he knew he couldn't let it go on, so he made an arrangement after thinking about it.

Xiao Muling was very dazzling in front of Emperor Jing these days.In front of civil and military officials, Emperor Jing praised him for having the demeanor of the ancestors of the Xiao family.Xiao Muling was even more overjoyed.

After arresting dozens of people in a row, Xue Qing didn't see any movement, and felt that Prime Minister Zuo was nothing more than that.

This day, his subordinates just brought over two juicy little girls, and he returned home with a happy smile on his face.

He felt very satisfied listening to the heart-piercing cries of the two little girls.

He likes to listen to their desperate cries, and at that moment he feels extremely comfortable.

After another bout of tossing and turning, he finally fell asleep satisfied.

The next day, a burst of screams woke up everyone in the Prince's Mansion.

Xiao Muling, with his upper body naked, looked at the two blood-stained women beside him and yelled.He has also played to death a lot of women, but he still trembled a little when he saw the death of these two women.

He actually slept with these two corpses all night. Thinking of this, he felt nauseated and ran to the door to vomit.

"Bring me Marquis Wu!" After vomiting, Xiao Muling rushed to the people and shouted.

Marquis Wu looked at the dead faces of the two women and their pupils shrank.

Xiao Muling didn't know, but he knew that the scars on the two women's bodies were exactly the same as those on the two lieutenants who were executed by him the day before yesterday.

This is someone who came to warn them!
Those people were able to break into the prince's mansion and kill two women in the third prince's bedroom without alarming anyone in the mansion, how terrifying it is!
If their target last night was the Third Prince, I'm afraid...

Thinking of this, Marquis Wu suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.Turning around, he glanced at the third prince, sighed again, and stated his conjecture.

Xiao Muling was shocked, "This is a warning someone gave us. The military affairs can't go on any longer! Grandfather, why don't we stop!"

Marquis Wu looked at Xiao Muling in front of him with mixed feelings, could his temperament really be suitable for that position?
"Ling'er, the matter is over half now, we can't stop it."

Xiao Muling anxiously said: "Why can't we stop? Can't we just put those people back?"

Marquis Wu shook his head and said: "Oh! You are still too young. Think about it, what will the emperor think when we let those people go at this time? He must think that we were bought by Xue Qing, and he can still bypass us Is it? And now we have offended Prime Minister Zuo, how can Prime Minister Zuo let us go?"

Xiao Muling's face changed, "What should we do? If we don't let people go, they will kill me, really will kill me!"

Marquis Wu suddenly threw away his hand, and said coldly: "You are the prince! You have your own identity! You will sit in that position in the future, how can you be so greedy for life and afraid of death! Which prince won't be in that position once A narrow escape! Do you think it is easy to be an emperor?"

After being yelled at by Marquis Wu, Xiao Muling finally calmed down, his eyes widened at first, then his pupils slowly shrank back, and he sat on the ground slumped.

Seeing him like this, Marquis Wu sighed in his heart but still stretched out his hand to help him up.He said earnestly: "Ling'er, we chose the road ourselves. We can only continue walking. Only in this way can we have a chance!"

Xiao Muling lowered his head and did not speak, his trembling body still exposed his worry at the moment.

Marquis Wu could only continue to say: "Don't be afraid, Ling'er, I will send more people to protect your safety. I will go to the palace to report this matter to the emperor, and ask the emperor to send someone to protect you. You can rest assured!"

At this moment Xiao Muling finally raised his head to look at Marquis Wu.Seeing his appearance at this time, Marquis Wu remembered his daughter's obedient and obedient appearance when she was at home, and hugged his head distressedly.

The kid was terrified, and I only blamed myself for failing to teach him well.His life has been too smooth, and now he is at a loss when he encounters such a little thing, what will he do in the future!

Marquis Wu didn't want to think about it anymore, the more he thought about it, the more sad he felt.
