Mu Gu looked at the bewildered Xiao Ruge beside him, and finally couldn't bear to let her continue to be kept in the dark.

"Xiao Yu'er, Minister Yang is teasing me."

Upon hearing this, Minister Yang burst into laughter and cooperated with Mu Gu and Xiao Ruge in explaining.

"Just now in the palace..."

After learning what had happened, Xiao Ruge suddenly realized that their plan was indeed to confuse Emperor Dalong. Xiao Ruge did not expect that Mu Gu would carry out their plan so thoroughly.

No wonder Minister Yang would tease Mu Gu like that.

However, I am used to seeing Minister Yang's serious look, so I am not used to him joking.

"Okay, enough joking, now let's talk business."

Minister Yang has always been clear about everything, and he still has to be serious when it comes to doing business.

"The Seventh Prince and his wife should also be aware of the situation on Mu Bo's side. I won't say much and will get straight to the point."

There is no need to say much about simple things. Minister Yang does not believe that a person who is able to plan and strategize would not have any spies and supporters in the palace.

"It is very likely that Emperor Dalong has already begun to plan to give up Mu Bo."

In fact, if he had not seen it with his own eyes, Minister Yang would not have believed that Emperor Dalong would really give up Mu Bo. On that day, he witnessed Mu Bo causing a scene at Emperor Dalong's place and then being kicked out. In addition, there was a huge slap mark on Mu Bo's face, so he must have been very angry.

In addition, for several days afterwards, Emperor Dalong no longer asked about Mu Bai's affairs, but turned to talk to Mu Gu. Minister Yang's guess was almost complete. At that time, when he thought about how Emperor Dalong kept trying to test Mu Gu, but Mu Gu managed to avoid him, it was a bit funny to put that situation in a picture.

Mu Gu nodded in agreement. Over this period of time, Emperor Dalong had indeed changed a lot. The most important change was that he paid much less attention to Mu Bo and turned his attention to other princes. His spies in the palace had reported to him that in addition to wanting to summon him to meet him several times, they had also visited the bedroom of Mu Li and his mother several times.

"Mu Bo dare not move here for the time being, but I'm afraid Mu Li and his mother will be targeted by Mu Bo."

Mu Gu did not feel that Mu Li was threatening. On the contrary, after meeting his younger brother a few times, he seemed intelligent and generous. The mother and son were all alone there, just like when he was living alone in the palace.

Mu Gu still felt sympathy for his younger brother who had a similar experience.

Mu Li is weak and alone. It is estimated that except for Minister Yang and some upright and kind people, no one is willing to wade into the muddy water of opposing Mu Bo in order to protect the mother and son.

If the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace wanted to let the mother and son die silently in the palace, it would be a piece of cake. According to the old emperor's current condition, he probably has no time to take care of it. It is estimated that it will not be long before it will be covered up by other disturbances.

Xiao Ruge listened to the conversation between the two. Although she didn't say anything, she was still thinking.

The only way to stop Mu Bo from doing evil is to remove him from the position of crown prince as soon as possible. However, this is not easy to say.

Even without the support of the old emperor, Mu Bo still has many loyal right-hand men around him, not to mention the extremely disgusting Qingxu.

If you want to deal with Mu Bo, the first person you have to deal with is Qingxu.

This is the result of Xiao Ruge's careful consideration.

"Minister Yang, do you know Qingxu?"

Taking advantage of the gap when neither of them spoke, Xiao Ruge asked. Minister Yang lowered his head slightly, as if he was thinking about what Xiao Ruge asked. After a long time, he slowly spoke.

"This person is unfathomable, but he is definitely not a good person."

Upon hearing this, Mu Gu nodded in agreement. He had previously sent people to search for this person in the martial arts world, but no one knew where this Qingxu came from, and no one even knew his real name. It seemed that Qingxu had always known people as "Taoist Master Qingxu".

"Minister Yang, leave this matter to me. I'll leave it to you to test the attitude of Emperor Dalong."

Coming out of his thoughts, Mu Gu spoke slowly.

Minister Yang then bowed to the two people in front of him.

"Don't worry, Seventh Prince, and don't worry, Madam."

After saying this, he had finished the business he was talking about. Just as Minister Yang was about to leave, he heard Mu Gu's voice.

"Minister Yang, please stay."

Minister Yang turned his head in confusion and saw a wine jug on the table in the main hall. He was stunned for a moment. He was just joking. He didn't expect Mu Gu to actually bring the wine. It was really a pleasant surprise.

"Is the Seventh Prince serious?"

Mu Gu smiled.

"I never lie. If I say yes, it means yes. Please."

Mu Gu raised his hand and signaled Minister Yang to pour the wine normally.

In that case, Minister Yang didn't bother to be polite. He picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass. He put it to his nose and fanned it. The aroma of the wine penetrated into his nose with the small gust of wind, and Minister Yang's eyes immediately brightened.

"The best Sanluo wine...at least...over 20 years old?"

"Minister Yang is an expert."

Mu Gu praised generously.

"Although it was not prepared in advance by the mansion, it was also found by someone just now. How is it? Is it in line with Minister Yang's wishes?"

Minister Yang couldn't help but sigh.

"The Seventh Prince is very generous. The five-year-old Sangluo is a fine wine, the ten-year-old is a top-quality wine, and the twenty-year-old is a fairy product!"

Mu Gu still smiled gently as the wind and raised his hand to signal again.

"Minister Yang, why don't you try it and see if it's really as amazing as the rumors say."

Minister Yang, who had been eager to taste the wine for a long time, could no longer wait. After saying "please", he tilted his head back and drank a glass. The aroma of the wine lingered on his tongue like nectar, making him unforgettable.

"Immortal item! It really is an immortal item!"

Seeing Yang Shilang praising Sang Luo so highly over the past twenty years, Xiao Ruge couldn't help but feel curious. It was just a pot of wine, could it really be so magical? She didn't quite believe it.

Minister Yang, who was keeping an eye on all directions, naturally noticed Xiao Ruge's disbelief and spoke with a smile.

"It seems that Madam doesn't believe that Sang Luo's charm has been so great in the past twenty years?"

Xiao Ruge was very honest and shook his head when he heard that.

"No matter how sweet and mellow it is, it's just an ordinary brew. It's not as miraculous as you say."

Xiao Ruge felt that it was mostly due to hype from everyone. As many people praised it, others naturally followed suit.

"Madam, do you know that the price of an ordinary mulberry bush is 10,000 ti per dou?"

"what?"

Xiao Ruge's face was full of disbelief. What kind of wine could cost ten thousand yuan a bucket? And what Minister Yang just said was that an ordinary bottle costs ten thousand yuan. Then how high would the price be in these twenty years?
