The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Wang Baishun was startled and cautiously asked, "Uncle San, do you have any tricks?"

Wang Shouchun smiled and said, "The Concubine wants you to replace Meng Jifei as the Supreme Commander of the Shadow Guards. Are you willing?"

"Oh, I thought you had the support of some expert. The Concubine Dowager has no power in the harem, so how could she allow me to be promoted three levels and become the commander-in-chief? That requires the emperor to select him personally. The Concubine Dowager is not the emperor's biological mother, so how can she be the head of the emperor's household? You are just making fun of me!" Wang Baishun complained.

Wang Shouchun said sternly: "That's right! That being said, what if the Duke of Zhenguo, the Marquis of Yongning, the Prince of Jing's Mansion, and Sun Cifu all support you?"

"what!!!"

Wang Baishun was stunned. What a heavyweight dream combination!

The Duke of Zhenguo is the grandfather of the current second prince, the Marquis of Yongning is the father of Concubine Zhou, and Sun Ci Fu is a first-rank official in the court. These are all big shots who can make the whole court tremble with the stomping of their feet. They are actually willing to support him to ascend to the throne. Is he dreaming?

Seeing his nephew's stunned look, Wang Shouchun couldn't help but smile triumphantly. He leaned close to his nephew and whispered, "These people want to support the Second Prince to take the throne. They plan to place one of their own people in the most important Shadow Guard. When they compete with the eldest prince, won't they have an extra bargaining chip? Now this great news has fallen on your head. It depends on whether you can catch it..."

"Uncle San, I can catch it!" Wang Baishun immediately assured very firmly.

When Wang Baishun thought about the fact that he would become the feared supreme commander of the Shadow Guard in the future, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement!

This is the position that so many people in the world dream of! Although the princes, nobles and first-rank officials are reserved and arrogant, they are still very friendly and polite in front of the Shadow Guards, fearing that they will accidentally offend them one day, and then their homes will be inexplicably searched for dragon robes and weapons!

Wang Baishun grabbed Wang Shouchun's hand and said excitedly: "Uncle, I leave my nephew's future to you! I will be your biological son in the future. Please tell the Concubine Dowager that my nephew is willing to shoulder this heavy responsibility and become a chess piece planted by the Second Prince's party next to the Emperor!"

Wang Shouchun nodded repeatedly and said happily: "Good boy! Good boy! Third uncle knew you had this ambition! Third uncle has no children, so I will rely on you to take care of him in his old age!"

"Don't worry! As long as I do well in life, I will definitely be filial to you in the future. When the time comes, our Wang family will be counting on us two!" Wang Baishun promised, patting his chest.

……

In the imperial study, Mo Qi came to the desk and replied, "Your Majesty, the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhang Jie, is outside asking to see you. He said he has something very important to report to you..."

"Let him in."

After a while, a tall, dark and fat official came in, came to the desk and kowtowed, saying: "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

"Say!"

Zhang Jie looked around.

The emperor said to Mo Qi, "You go out first."

"Yes."

Mo Qi returned to his duty room. Not long after he sat down, a young eunuch quietly came in and reported: "Mr. Mo, Minister Zhang just reported to the emperor that Lord Meng condoned his subordinates' corruption and bribery, blackmailed court officials, and illegally forced confessions. He also said... and also said..."

Mo Qi said anxiously: "What else are you talking about? Hurry up and say it!"

The young eunuch said timidly: "They also said that Lord Meng abused his power for personal gain and used his position to torture female prisoners..."

Mo Qi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this! These false accusations may be useful against ordinary officials, but they will not pose a threat to the Shadow Guards.

Because they were responsible for special tasks such as eavesdropping, assassination, and forced confessions, if the emperor wanted to punish them, he would find a reason to deal with them. However, for a person of Meng Jifei's level, these did not pose any threat at all, so Mo Qi did not take it to heart.

But the little eunuch's next words immediately made his heart rise to his throat!

The young eunuch said, "Minister Zhang said that the female prisoner is a descendant of the Duke of Wei in the previous dynasty, and she used to know Lord Meng!"

Finished!

When Mo Qi heard the last sentence, he immediately stomped his feet heavily, then pushed the door open and went out anxiously!

……

In the dungeon, after He Miaoer slowly woke up, she immediately felt a sharp pain all over her body!

She looked around with great effort and found herself chained in a dark cell, with no sound around her.

She tried hard to recall what happened before she fell into a coma, but she only felt a splitting headache and could not remember anything... The only clear feeling was that her chest seemed to have been stabbed with a knife, and it hurt terribly!

The cell was damp and smelly, making it hard to breathe. He Miaoer was confused and thought: Where am I? Why am I locked up? I am a famous thief in the world, how could I be caught by mistake...

At this moment, the cell door was suddenly opened, and a female jailer came in with an oil lamp. She hung the lamp on the wall and then turned around and left.

After a while, a tall and thin man walked in quietly from outside.

He came up to He Miaoer, bent down, stretched out his hand, pinched her chin and said coldly: "A Ling, long time no see!"

He Miaoer opened her eyes wide to try to see clearly who this person was, but the light in the room was too dim and she couldn't see clearly.

She wanted to ask who he was and whether she had recognized the wrong person, but her voice was too hoarse to speak.

The man sneered: "Why, don't you recognize me?"

He Miaoer stared at him blankly, unable to say a word...

The man raised his eyebrows and said with disdain: "Didn't your good brother Yang Libing protect you? How could he bear to let you go out and steal alone?"

He Miaoer suddenly recognized who he was!

She stared at him in horror and whispered hoarsely, "Is it you?"

The man smiled softly and said, "Yes, it's me! You finally recognized me!"

He Miaoer was immediately terrified and struggled desperately with her hands to escape, but it was all in vain. The iron chains on her wrists made a rattling sound, which sounded particularly creepy in the silent cell...

The man had a grim smile on his handsome face. He approached her and whispered, "Don't struggle. This is a prison for special prisoners. Your good brother will not come here to save you..."

He Miaoer looked at him in horror, with despair in her eyes...

The man admired her expression with satisfaction and said softly, "Ah Ling, I have thought many times about what it would be like to meet you again... but I never expected it would happen so soon!"

He Miaoer sobbed, tears streaming down her eyes and staining her face...

After a while, the jailer guarding outside heard bursts of shrill screams from a woman in the cell!

But the jailer was obviously used to this and did not react at all.

Suddenly, the jailer's eyes blurred, and a sturdy shadow guard walked quickly from the tunnel entrance. After knocking gently outside the prison door, he whispered, "Master Meng, Master Mo is waiting for you outside. He said he has something important to discuss with you!"

The noise inside stopped, and after a moment the cell door opened. The tall, thin, handsome man walked out and told the jailer, "Remember, no one is allowed to visit me without my order!"

"Yes!" The jailer stepped forward and locked the cell door from the outside.

In the dark and narrow tunnel, Meng Jifei walked out quickly while frowning and asked, "What does Mo Qi want from me?"

The Shadow Guard replied, "Master Mo didn't say, but it seems to be a matter of utmost urgency. He asked me to find you immediately!"
