Uncle Qi frowned, leaned over and whispered: "Miss, I just went to see if anyone was delivering a letter, but I found that there are many people hiding around the house, and they seem to be watching us."
Mu Miao said indifferently: "Is it from the eldest brother?"
Uncle Qi shook his head.
"According to my guess, it should be someone from the imperial court."
"Miss, what should we do, should we withdraw?"
Mu Miao fell into deep thought when she heard the words.
After a long while, she shook her head and said firmly, "No, I came to Xianyang to fulfill my dream. Before that, I will never leave."
Seeing this, Uncle Qi wanted to persuade him again, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"Since that's the case, Uncle Qi will be here with you."
Chapter 64
In Xianyang City, the people were terrified.
No one expected that in just one day, the court's actions would become so fast.
Yesterday, no matter whether it was the soldiers or the small officials who could get in touch, they seemed to be indifferent to the rumors.
Let some of them who like to gossip, or like to use such things to attract the attention of others, taste some sweetness, and when they meet people, they can't help telling the "truth" they know.
Today, without exception, all of these people have been arrested.
The soldiers pressed down the civilians one by one, tied their hands and formed a line, arresting nearly a hundred people in total.
Since the first emperor came to the throne, there has never been such a large arrest in Xianyang City.
For a while, people were panicked, thinking about whether they had said something wrong.
"Young master has an order. If you can't control the tongue, you don't have to."
What the soldiers said made the common people feel angry and dare not speak out.
Seeing that no one spoke, the soldiers escorted them away with satisfaction.
After all the soldiers left, the common people breathed a sigh of relief.
They whispered to each other, and they didn't dare to speak loudly anymore. Who knew that if they said something wrong, they would be taken away.
"Why would Young Master Qi give such an order?"
"Yeah, I was scared to death. The person who was standing next to Haizhui just now was taken away."
"Stop talking nonsense, it's Young Master Qi, it's Young Master Hu Hai's order!"
"Young Master Huhai?!"
"That's right, Young Master Qi is no longer in charge of the country today, and has been replaced by Young Master Hu Hai."
Although the people are afraid, they still can't help discussing some things, otherwise life will be so boring.
Fortunately, no one arrested them for this kind of thing, even the soldiers who were left to clean up the mess just heard a little, and they just snorted softly.
"Young Master Qi has fallen out of favor!"
With these words, the soldiers disappeared from the sight of the common people.
The people looked at each other in blank dismay, and after a while they dispersed.
But the fact that Young Master Qi fell out of favor was spread invisibly.
As for the soldiers who cleaned up the mess before, they did not return to the team after leaving. Instead, they changed their outfits and went straight to Ying Ziqi's palace.
At this time, Yingzi Qi is enjoying the three-person time with Honglian Wang Yiqing leisurely.
Seeing that the person came back, he chuckled lightly: "Is the matter settled?"
"It's a good thing that my subordinates are not disgraceful. The words that Young Master Qi has fallen out of favor have already been heard by the common people, and it seems that there is a similar spreading trend to the previous rumors. It's just that no one talks about it on the surface, and they just whispered about it. thing."
Ying Ziqi chuckled: "Very well, you go down, this is enough."
"Yes!"
After the soldiers left, Wang Yiqing said a little indignantly: "That Hu Hai has been acting recklessly since he was a child, and he arrested the people wantonly because of this, he is really insane."
Honglian also nodded and said: "Even in old Korea, such a situation never happened before."
Ying Ziqi laughed twice.
"Hu Hai, with his father around, no matter how courageous he is, he would not dare to do such a thing. To be able to issue such an order, he must be bewitched by others, and the purpose of the bewitched person is open to question. "
Wang Yiqing was a little curious.
"Isn't it to stop rumors and maintain the dignity of the royal family?"
Ying Ziqi sneered: "Dignity? Is there dignity in doing so?"
"Wait, I'm afraid I'm going to die this time."
Both Honglian and Wang Yiqing found it incredible.
"He dares to kill ordinary people? Isn't he afraid that His Majesty will come back and punish him?"
Ying Ziqi shook his head.
"I didn't say that the people who were killed were civilians."
......
"Master Cai, is this cooperation pleasant?"
In a restaurant in Xianyang, Cai Zhuo sat at the main seat, and on his left was a young man, smiling and toasting.
Cai Zhuo also laughed.
"Mr. Mu's plan really works. Now that Ying Ziqi will make a wrong step, and he will never recover!"
After speaking, he looked at Mr. Mu expectantly.
"May I ask if Mr. Mu has a strategy to directly suppress Ying Ziqi to the bottom?"
Hearing this, Mr. Mu shook his head helplessly: "No, the time has not come yet."
Cai Zhuo also liked this when talking to others before, but now he also feels what it means to hold back and feel uncomfortable.
"The time has not come, so when will the time come?"
He really couldn't help asking.
Mr. Mu said solemnly: "Your Majesty is coming to heaven."
Hearing what he said, Cai Zhuo was dumbfounded.
"It will be until then??"
Mr. Mu sighed: "Currently, although Ying Ziqi's foundation in the court is not deep, the only person under him is Han Xin who has not yet seen his talent. Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and none of them are mediocre."
"Because of the matter of supervising the country, His Majesty also attaches great importance to Ying Ziqi. It may be difficult to completely solve it now."
Hearing this, Cai Zhuo sat up straight.
He glanced sideways at Mr. Mu.
"Since that's the case, don't mention it over there, let's go for dinner."
Mr. Mu was taken aback for a moment.
"Lord Cai, what about the things we agreed on earlier?"
Cai Zhuo took a sip of his wine and said casually, "What is it?"
"It's about helping me enter the court and spreading my sect theory."
Cai Zhuo narrowed his eyes.
"Have we agreed on this?"
Mr. Mu nodded very positively.
"It was agreed, and this is also the condition for me to help you and Young Master Hu Hai."
Cai Zhuo laughed out loud.
"Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu, don't think that calling you Mr. means that you are really qualified to negotiate terms with me."
"Good wine and good food are here. Do you want to eat it or not?"
Cai Zhuo pointed at the table full of food and wine, and looked at Mr. Mu with a sneer.
Mr. Mu's face was gloomy, why didn't he understand at this moment.
The so-called agreement does not count at all now.
He took a deep breath.
"Since that's the case, I'll take my leave. I hope your future will be bright!"
When he said this, he gritted his teeth vigorously, not knowing how to express the resentment in his heart.
If it weren't for that agreement, how could he help a young master who in his opinion has the face of a subjugated king.
There was still hope, but now it was shattered.
Mr. Mu flicked his sleeves expressionlessly, turned around and left the room.
Cai Zhuo ate and drank leisurely, as if he hadn't heard or seen anything.
It wasn't until after Mr. Mu left that the guard beside Cai Zhuo asked, "My lord, when shall I do it?"
Cai Zhuo chuckled: "Don't be in a hurry, wait until he walks a little distance away, then it won't be too late for you to make a move."
"Yes, this subordinate understands, I will send someone to follow him, wait a little further, and arrest him."
"Well, let's go, arresting people should be aboveboard, not sneaky."
The guard said yes and bowed his head to leave.
Cai Zhuo babbled.
"Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu, instead of taking the Yangguan Road, we have to take the single-plank bridge. It's a pity."
Chapter 65
After Mr. Mu left the restaurant, he walked on the streets of Xianyang.
I regret that I made such a decision in the first place.
Help Hu Hai move Ying Ziqi down?
He felt that he could do what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty thought could not be done, so he did it.
But now, before the result appeared, he became an abandoned person.
"Ugh!"
Sighing heavily, Mr. Mu walked towards the east of the city.
"I haven't seen my sister for a long time, but I can meet you on the way."
He thought so.
But before he had gone far, he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness instantly.
Seeing this, the people around were startled.
And the person who knocked Mr. Mu out shouted loudly: "The person who fabricated the rumors has been arrested today. I hope you and others will tell each other not to make such mistakes!"
Upon hearing the words, the common people looked at Mr. Mu who was lying on the ground, and nodded repeatedly.
Only then did the soldiers lift Mr. Mu up with satisfaction, and left in the direction of the prison.
But no one noticed that at the place where Mr. Mu fell, a jade pendant that was close to emerald green fell into the grass beside him.
"Young master, the mastermind who spread the rumors has been captured."
In Zhangtai Palace, Hu Hai laughed out loud after listening to his subordinates' report.
"Okay! Well done, so that my father can also know my ability!"
