As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Nan Yanxi smiled lightly: "Of course, before this, I was just guessing."
"I'm still thinking that these people quietly contacted Dayan, maybe just to resist King Zhenxi."
"It wasn't until today in the court that Yun Xi and I really saw clearly that these people have a greater purpose."
"Oh? How do you say this?" Everyone was puzzled.
Nan Yanxi smiled, made eye contact with Mo Yunxi, and explained: "A very interesting thing happened in the court recently."
"We arranged for General Qin in advance and deliberately proposed two paths when he went to court today."
"One is seeking help from Dayan, and the other is seeking peace with me..."
After saying that, Nan Yanxi raised her head and asked everyone: "So, if you were put in your current position..."
"Asking for help, asking for peace...which one is more appropriate?"
After hearing what he said, several people started talking about it.
They all agreed that if the private alliance between Nan Yanxi and Mo Yunxi was discarded, the current situation would be better.
It would definitely be better to ask Dayan for help.
After all, both sides in the South China Sea are fighting for the throne. Both sides come from the same bloodline and are both qualified for the throne.
Then asking for peace is equivalent to giving yourself a death sentence in advance.
No matter which one wins the world in the end, they will find a way to kill the other party as soon as possible.
This is why since ancient times, as long as a prince ascends the throne, his brothers usually end badly.
Everyone understands such a simple truth, so most of the officials in the court agree to communicate with Dayan.
"But..." Mo Qingyan was a little confused: "Then why did these people jump out to oppose it?"
"Didn't they originally want to have an affair with Dayan?"
Hearing this, Mo Yunxi on the side smiled sweetly: "Because, if I nodded, their wishful thinking would have come to nothing."
"Cousin, think about it, if the orthodox royal family is willing to cooperate with Dayan."
"Then is it necessary for Dayan to take greater risks and cooperate with a group of rebels who are uncertain about whether they will succeed or not?"
Nan Yanxi took over the conversation and continued to explain: "So, in order to get the country and land in the South China Sea."
"No matter what, we must prevent Yun Xi from establishing contact with Dayan before they reach some kind of agreement with Dayan."
"Your Highness..." Qin Ge looked worried and raised his hands to Nan Yanxi: "Do they...really want to rebel?"
"The Emperor is still alive, his two highnesses are also there, and there are hundreds of thousands of troops outside. Do they really have the courage?"
"Haha... Do you have the guts? The answer is right here!"
Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Nan Yanxi's command pole and blurted out: "East Gate of Kyoto?"
"Not bad!" Nan Yanxi smiled meaningfully: "Today, Wang Yushi fiercely impeached the general of the East Gate of the Defense Department."
"A lot of evidence was also produced, so we followed suit and removed the East Gate guard general from his post and investigated."
"The current defense of the east gate is held by his deputy general Wang Xiao, who is the nephew of this Wang Censor."
He raised his head and looked at a few people: "Everyone should know that after the official commander is removed from his post for some reason, he needs to notify the Defense Department."
"Notice to the Gyeonggi Defense Department, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, and then submit it to the emperor for approval after finalization."
"Finally, the Ministry of Personnel will appoint a new general, or promote a deputy general to the main general."
"This process generally takes no more than seven days..."
Speaking of this, Nan Yanxi looked cunning and calculating: "So I analyzed that there must be big fish in the east gate direction in the past seven days."
After saying that, he bowed his hands to Nangong Wenjian and Mo Qingyan: "Master, it seems that you two have to go through the trouble."
"Hidden at the east gate, I'll ask General Qin to send more people to assist you two."
"Keep the east gate under surveillance. If anything unusual is found, capture it immediately and secretly send it to Yun Xi's house."
The two nodded in agreement.
Nan Yanxi also told Qin Ge to send more manpower to secretly monitor and provide support.
The other three gates and Ningguo Duke's Mansion must also send additional manpower to ensure that no disturbance can be ignored.
Qin Ge patted his chest and agreed. Guards in black were the best at this kind of secret surveillance.
Although Feng Yucheng was one of the founders of the Black Guards, in the face of the entire Black Guards Department being mobilized.
He is an old man who has been pretending to be crazy and has been idle in the house for many years. No matter how cunning and scheming he is, there is nothing he can do.
After arranging all this, Nangong Wenjian took Mo Qingyan and Qin Ge's right-hand men and secretly left the palace to prepare.
Watching their departure, Nan Yanxi sighed with relief.
With Nangong Wenjian and Mo Qingyan here, and the black-clothed guards fully assisting, it was natural that nothing would go wrong.
Turning around to look at Mo Yunxi: "Then let's... get down to business?"
"Okay..." Mo Yunxi smiled and asked Qin Ge, "Are they all here?"
"Return to Your Highness."
Qin Ge saluted respectfully: "General Qiu Min, the commander of the imperial palace, and Eunuch Jia Guang, the eunuch of the ceremonial department."
"And Eunuch Gao Qing, the eunuch in charge of the Shangshan Supervisor, has arrived."
"Okay..." Mo Yunxi nodded with satisfaction: "Let's talk to them!"
"yes!"
At this time, Qiu Min, Jia Guang, and Gao Qing were sitting on chairs in the side hall of Shangshufang.
Drinking tea leisurely, exchanging polite words.
The three of them are all Mo Yunxi's newly promoted confidants after taking power.
Like Qin Ge, he was also a die-hard second prince party back then, so he felt very relaxed here.
But Nan Yanxi knows that those who were hardcore back then may not still be hardcore now, especially now that Mo Yunxi is declining.
Even a die-hard minion like Qin Ge was shaken, let alone the three of them.
Nan Yanxi discussed with Mo Yunxi and invited these three people to chat, firstly to test them out.
The second is to strike a chord, and the third is to find out who the Feng family's spy in the palace is.
The three of them were chatting with each other, and they all speculated on His Highness's intentions this time.
Just as he was talking, the palace door opened, and a group of black-clothed guards filed in and lined up around the hall, staring at them with unkind eyes.
The three of them were stunned when they saw this and stood up one after another.
Looking up, he saw Qin Ge, wearing court clothes and holding a sword in his hand, walking in slowly.
Qiu Min and the other three looked at each other, frowned and said, "Old Qin...you...what do you mean?"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Mo Yunxi, dressed in a prince's dragon robe, walking in with a cold face at the door.
Following behind, naturally, was Nan Yanxi dressed as a chief eunuch.
When the three of them saw Mo Yunxi coming in, they quickly knelt down and saluted: "Your Majesty...Qiu Min!"
"Slave...Jia Guang!"
"Slave...Gao Qing!"
"See Your Highness..."
"Well..." Mo Yunxi agreed coldly, raised her legs and walked directly through the three of them, sitting on the main seat.
He picked up the tea cup and drank the tea by himself.
Such a reaction made the three people kneeling on the ground look at each other.
We looked at each other and thought something was wrong...
In the past, when there were no outsiders present during their meetings, His Highness would simply abstain from courtesy, and the three of them would not even have to kneel down.
What happened this time...
The three of them did not dare to neglect, so they knelt on the ground and turned around. Their buttocks felt high and their heads were pointed at Mo Yunxi.
He asked cautiously: "I wonder if His Highness summoned us this time, but he has something important to say?"
"Did your subordinates do something wrong in their work? Please forgive me, your Majesty, and your subordinates will correct it immediately."
"Well..." Mo Yunxi sighed deeply, as if she was suppressing her anger.
He raised his head and said softly to Jia Guang: "Eunuch Jia, please get up... I have something to ask you."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Jia Guangru was pardoned and quickly stood up, but still stood aside tremblingly.
Mo Yunxi smiled and waved: "Sit down!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Jia Guang agreed, but felt even more nervous.
She sat down gingerly on the chair, raised her hands to Mo Yunxi and said, "What are you going to do if you don't give me any instructions?"
"oh..."
Mo Yunxi put down the teacup in her hand and asked softly: "Eunuch Jia, the Chief of Ceremony of the Seal Department."
"For this internal official to collude with foreign ministers and facilitate the adultery between concubines and foreign ministers in the palace, what crime should be committed?"
"Ah...this!"
As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Jia was so startled that he almost jumped up from his chair.
The two people lying on the ground were also very frightened, and their minds were running wildly at this time.
I emptied all the memories in my head and thought desperately, how could His Highness ask such a question.
Eunuch Jia paused and suppressed his panicked heart.
He said cautiously: "According to the palace system, if an internal official does such a treasonous and unethical thing."
"You need Lingchi to kill the five clans, and together with the leader, he will kill the three clans! Confiscate the property!"
