Seeing the so-called pleas from the ministers in front of him, Emperor Qin's face turned completely pale.

"Shut up, everyone." Emperor Qin's chest rose and fell.

These ministers seemed pleased and did not intend to let this matter go so easily.

"Your Majesty, do you still want to protect the prince?" someone asked.

Emperor Qin took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he was filled with murderous intent. "We will discuss this matter later after the Queen is buried."

After saying that, he just turned away.

Jiang Minghuai, who had been watching everything, had cold eyes.

He was a little confused about Emperor Qin's actions.

Why is this person protecting such a sick person?

After he went out, he turned directly and went to Jiang Kui's Tianmingtai.

As soon as he entered, he saw the Second Prince at Jiang Kui's place. He was stunned, but he quickly reacted and nodded to the Second Prince.

The second prince didn't care about his disrespect towards him.

"General, do you have any other way to get His Majesty to depose the Crown Prince?" The Second Prince did not hold back and went straight to the point.

Jiang Minghuai knew that he had joined forces with Jiang Kui.

Sitting opposite them, Jiang Minghuai took a sip of tea and said calmly, "I am just a rough man. I have been fighting on the border for many years. How can I have any ideas?"

The second prince frowned slightly, his heart filled with coldness.

He had received information about the affairs of the court, and he also knew that Lord Li was from the Jiang family, and those who wanted to depose the crown prince were also from the Jiang family.

But I didn't expect that this old fox didn't show up at all.

"I believe in the general's ability. The Jiang family and I are in the same boat. Is there anything the general cannot say?"

Jiang Minghuai glanced at the second prince, then turned his gaze to Jiang Kui, only to see Jiang Kui nodded to him.

Jiang Minghuai drank a cup of tea, put the cup on the table, and after a moment of silence, he spoke.

"The Second Prince wants that position."

"That's right." The second prince admitted directly.

"The Second Prince is quite open-minded, and I like that. In this case, I do have a plan, but I don't know if the Second Prince dares to do it."

"It doesn't hurt to just say it."

"The Second Prince will know after he leaves the palace." Jiang Minghuai said mysteriously.

After a few people whispered for a while, the second prince hurried out of the palace.

Looking at the second prince's back, Jiang Minghuai couldn't help but frown, "Can this second prince be trusted?"

Jiang Kui took a sip of tea, a sneer on his face, "He's just an idiot, but isn't that what we need now?"

Jiang Minghuai was stunned for a moment, but soon burst into laughter.

"Yep."

Jiang Kui thought of something and looked at Jiang Minghuai with a serious face, "Those 100,000 troops were really sent back to the border."

"Don't worry, I will give them a surprise when the time comes." Jiang Minghuai's eyes turned cold.

Jiang Kui nodded mysteriously, "Then I feel relieved. I hope you won't let me down."

"Will not."

"This is what happened in the court today."

Grand Tutor Ling told Jiang Ruanxi everything that happened in the court this morning.

Jiang Ruanxi's eyes became bright.

"I had thought of all this a long time ago, but I didn't expect that these people would start a fight as soon as Jiang Minghuai came back. It's very likely that it was Jiang Minghuai who instructed them to do so."

"You guessed right. Many of them are people who curry favor with the Jiang family. Some of them are the second prince's men."

Jiang Ruanxi rubbed the teacup with his hands and said affirmatively, "If that's the case, the Second Prince should have teamed up with the Jiang family."

"Yes." Master Ling nodded.

"Father, let's not worry about it for now. Let them make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the better." Jiang Ruanxi said with a smile.

"Why is this?" Grand Tutor Ling was a little puzzled.

"Just wait. The muddy water in the capital city should be made more muddy as possible."

As he spoke, Jiang Ruanxi seemed to remember something, took out the token from the Nameless Island and handed it to Grand Tutor Ling.

"What is this?"

Master Ling took it and looked it up and down for a while.

"This is the token of the Nameless Island. As long as we have it, we can mobilize most of the power of the Nameless Island." Jiang Ruanxi explained.

Master Ling was stunned, his eyes full of shock.

Because he knew about the Nameless Island, which is a mysterious organization.

The court has spent so much manpower and resources investigating for so many years, but there is no clue at all. But now Jiang Ruanxi, a woman in the inner palace, actually has their token.

"Are you from the Nameless Island?"

Jiang Ruanxi shook her head, "No. This was given to me by someone I know."

Jiang Ruanxi did not tell Grand Tutor Ling about the matter between Bian Du and Qi Wu.

It’s not that I don’t believe him, I just feel that some things are better known by fewer people.

Master Ling knew that she didn't want to say it, so he didn't force her, but he still reminded her, "There are some things I know I shouldn't say because of my identity, but since you regard me as your father, I still have to remind you. Although the power of Wuming Island is very strong, you still have to be careful to avoid getting into trouble."

Jiang Ruanxi knew that he had good intentions and was deeply touched.

She smiled and said, "Don't worry, father. I know what I am doing."

"Ah."

"Father, I know that Kyoto is in chaos right now. The prince is in prison, and Jiang Minghuai has returned to Kyoto. You should know what will happen next. They should be on guard against you in various ways, and it will be inconvenient for them to do anything. No one on Wuming Island knows anything, so if you have anything to do, you can tell them to do it."

Jiang Ruanxi stated the purpose of taking out the token of Nameless Island this time.

Master Ling didn't expect her to be so thoughtful and couldn't help but marvel at her.

"Father knows."

"There is one more thing. Although Jiang Minghuai said that he did not bring the 100,000 troops back to Kyoto, I don't believe that those soldiers were really sent back to the border. So father, go check the situation of the 100,000 soldiers. Also, have someone find General Xu Yining, who is guarding the southwest, and tell him about the situation in Kyoto. I believe he will know what to do when the time comes."

For some reason, Master Ling did not think that Jiang Ruanxi's words were nonsense just because she was a woman, and he could not help but believe her words.

I also feel that her analysis and arrangement are very appropriate.

Master Ling nodded and promised her, "Don't worry, I will definitely get everything done. As for General Xu, I had some friendship with him in the early years, I will go there in person."

"Thank you for your hard work, father."

Jiang Ruanxi didn't expect that Grand Tutor Ling and Xu Yining were friends, which would make some things easier.

I couldn't help but curl up the corners of my mouth into a smile.

Master Ling nodded.

**

At the morning court session that followed, just as Jiang Ruanxi had expected, most of the court officials knelt on the ground.

This happens every day.

Emperor Qin looked at the black head kneeling on the ground and heard various words in his ears asking him to depose the crown prince, and his face turned as dark as ink.
