Chapter 138 Don't underestimate the literati

When they returned home, Duke An Guo specially sent two boxes of good tea to Mu Qingling, and solemnly promised that their Duke An Guo's tea was definitely more delicious than the ones from the queen.

Mu Qingling was not pretentious and took it off directly. She pleased her like a granddaughter and said, "If it tastes really good, Qingling will definitely ask the Duke for two boxes next time."

Duke An Guo laughed and said, "If you like it, come anytime."

Mu Qingling smiled with a smile on her lips, said goodbye, and took Qi Yue away from the Duke's Mansion.

In the Duke of Anguo's mansion, Shao Honghui said with a little curiosity: "The prince's concubine also went to the palace yesterday."

Duke An Guo took a sip of tea and said lightly: "I was invited into the palace by the emperor. As for the reason, I won't tell you, I think you understand it. But don't ignore it. Even if the prince of Ming Dynasty did not bring back the news of the mutiny in Zezhou, the emperor would not be able to touch her."

Shao Honghui frowned, "Imperial power is supreme, if the emperor's attitude is too tough..."

Duke An Guo snorted, "Honghui, you were wrong. You didn't force Prince Ning to admit his guilt in person. The emperor would not issue an order easily, otherwise he would really tear his face with Prince Ning's mansion. Do you think that after the news spreads, the world will stand on that side..."

Shao Honghui was silent, and the princess denied that he had not killed Shen Xin, but the emperor did not ask for evidence and issued an order to punish him. Once the news came out, then in the eyes of the world, the emperor would attack the Ning Prince's Mansion.

In the eyes of literati in the world, the prosperity of Nanling needs to be protected by the Ning Palace. When the Ning Palace and the emperor make a fuss, most of the literati will stand on the side of the Ning Palace.

No one should underestimate literati. The so-called "Wujian" and "wujian" are both indispensable.

But this matter was the emperor's cause...

Duke An Guoshu sighed, "This Princess Ning is a smart person. She obviously knows this, so she is not afraid that the emperor will attack her in the palace."

After saying that, Duke An looked at Shao Lianyun on the side and said in a deep voice: "Lianyun, now do you know why I asked you to make friends with the princess and learn from her."

Shao Lianyun lowered her head in shame, "Liangyun is ashamed, knowing that she is not as good as the prince's concubine."

Duke An Guo, shook his head, his eyes were a little dim and unclear, "I am old, I will depend on you for what happens in the future of Duke An Guo's mansion. Lianyun is not bad. She is a girl and will eventually marry into a marriage partner. As long as she learns half of the methods of doing things, it will not be difficult for her to marry into any noble family in the future. Maybe she can help you at the right time."

"Grandfather..." Shao Lianyun's eyes were a little red. She knew that after the incident of marrying the princess, her grandfather wanted to plan for her future so that her path would be smoother.

Duke An Guo said in a deep voice: "Lianyun, you have been by my side since childhood. I have also taught you that as the daughter of Duke An Guo’s Mansion, I must learn to be strong. Today, I also say the same thing. No matter what happens in the future, you must remember that there are absolutely no cowardly or incompetent people in my Shao family."

At this moment, Duke An Guo, the old man who had been galloping on the battlefield for half his life, showed his majesty.

Shao Lianyun nodded silently. She understood what her grandfather meant. It has been more than a day or two for the emperor to regard Anguo Duke's Mansion as a thorn in his side. His father once said that it would be sooner or later for the emperor to take action against Anguo Duke's Mansion.

Whether it is her or other brothers and sisters, they must learn to be strong and not be defeated by the end of their hardships.

On the other hand, Mu Qingling did not go back to Ning Prince's Mansion directly, but walked around the street and went directly to Juxianglou.

A few days ago, Rong Cen used Mu Mingfeng to learn from Liu that the person they mentioned was whereabouts. Rong Cen had already gone in person at this time.

Before leaving, Rong Cen asked someone to hand over a letter to Mu Qingling, and the letter also explained clearly where Rong Cen went this time, which was Zezhou where mutiny occurred.

"Zezhou mutiny, do you know about Manager Yu?" Mu Qingling's gaze on the window on the third floor, on the wing room beside the window, fell on the street where people were coming and going below, and asked Yu Qingyao casually beside him.

Yu Qingyao nodded, "I know. The young master once said that the generals guarding the city in Zezhou are very ambitious. When the time comes, it will be sooner or later to launch a mutiny."

Mu Qingling said silently, and Jun Lingyi also said this.

Jun Muyan was too suspicious and kept a skeptical attitude towards many generals with outstanding military achievements. Most of these generals came from the Ning Palace, so Jun Muyan never dared to let them guard the too important place, because they were afraid that the other party would launch a mutiny and threaten their status.

Unfortunately, he never expected that it was the "his own people" who launched the mutiny.

It was also a waste of his high hopes for these generals. At this moment, Jun Muyan was so angry that he was about to vomit blood.

Mu Qingling calmed for a moment and said, "If there is any latest news from my cousin, please notify me as soon as possible."

Yu Qingyao nodded and said that he had written it down.

Mu Qingling changed her tone and suddenly became a little cold, "Since we are a little idle, please send some news and let him work hard."

The Minister of Justice repeatedly asked her for trouble. If she did not fight back, wouldn’t she really become a clay sculpture?

Yu Qingyao said in a deep voice: "In the early days, we collected a lot of information about ministers in the court, and many of them were about the Minister of Justice. Miss, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely do this to satisfy you."

Mu Qingling nodded and suddenly asked, "Do you know the identity of Ye Zhaoyi in the palace?"

Ye Zhaoyi?!

Yu Qingyao couldn't help but be stunned and frowned, "Although there were many spies in the palace before, the emperor had carried out a major purge on the harem when he ascended the throne in his early years, so there were not many left. If the young lady is really curious about the identity of Zhaoyi, she can go back to the house to ask Prince Ning. If anyone in this world is most familiar with the open and secret struggles in the deep palace, it should belong to Prince Ning. In the palace of the Four Kingdoms, there are countless secret stakes in Prince Ning's mansion."

Mu Qingling shook her head. She just thought of this Ye Zhaoyi by accident and asked casually, but she didn't care much.

It was just the time and method she appeared yesterday that made her a little curious.
