Chapter 324: Ning Jie beat Jun Yao!
There must be some hidden reason behind the fact that an exiled criminal could suddenly ascend to the position of prime minister.
Let’s not talk about whether Zong Zheng Ruijin has any connection with Wang Yongshou’s father.
However, even though Wang Huanqi, who was a member of the Privy Council at the time, was exposed by Empress Xie, only one person was implicated.
The rest of the Wang family members were simply expelled from the capital.
How did this imperial edict, which was jointly stamped with the imperial seal by the former emperor and the retired emperor, come into the hands of Wang Yongshou, who had no official position?
Why could he threaten Zong Zheng Ruijin and force him to employ an unofficial person who was of no use in the chaotic dynasty?
There must be an unknown secret behind this.
The three of them thought of this and fell silent at the same time.
Undoubtedly, the retired emperor delayed sending reinforcements because he was afraid of the Qilin Army, and there are not many people left who know about it.
And this Wang Yongshou is the son of Wang Huanqi. Even if he was not involved in the incident back then, he must know something about it.
This must be the reason why Master Ji went deep into the enemy camp...
Su Shengsheng sighed slightly, but couldn't help but worry about Ji Yanli's safety.
He finally found this in Wang Yongshou's study, but it was seen by Miss Wang and he had to take it away directly.
But in this case, when Wang Yongshou finds that something is missing, he will definitely suspect Ji Yanli.
No wonder he wanted to meet Xie Xuan.
I'm afraid he's in danger this time.
If it is true that Emperor Gou secretly joined forces with Wang Huanqi to plot to fight for the position of crown prince, causing the Qilin Army and Concubine Liu to fight each other, then he has hidden it too deeply.
However, Xie Xuan also had some doubts about this, so he did not take the life of the former Holy Queen who had just been rescued from Beirong.
It seems that there really is something hidden inside.
But even if the three of them knew, this imperial edict might be the key to unlocking the secret and the many years of secrecy.
But at this moment, there is no way to find a foothold.
After all, it has been so many years since the incident. If it was really Zong Zheng Ruijin who was secretly planning it from the beginning to the end, then after so many years, all the mouths that should be silenced would have been silenced.
As for these few crucial children born to the former Holy Empress, I am afraid that the former Concubine Liu still does not know their details.
And Wang Yongshou...
The three of them looked at each other.
This person has been able to hide for so many years and still has another trick up his sleeve. He is not easy to deal with.
As long as Emperor Gou does not fall, it will be impossible for them to get anything out of him.
After several analyses, the three of them had to admit that it was impossible to catch Wang Yongshou.
Back then, his father refused to reveal the mastermind behind the incident in order to protect his family, so Wang Yongshou would not do that either.
At this moment, Su Shengsheng began to understand why there were those rumors outside.
It was because Wang Yongshou had done so many evil things and was so insidious and cunning that he just couldn't get past his daughter.
I heard that he had only one daughter for many years, and she was weak and sickly since childhood.
No wonder that person set his sights on the gentle Ji Yanli.
Just imagine, who would dare to hand over their own flesh and blood to someone who is as calculating and ruthless as themselves?
He couldn't find a son-in-law candidate among himself, and the court was full of chaos, so there were few people who could be cleared out.
Rumor has it that it was the Ji family who took the initiative to break off the engagement with the Su family, which means it is impossible for the Ji family to stand together with the Su family again.
Ji Yanli has a gentle nature and would never do anything to take advantage of someone's misfortune.
Su Shengsheng smelled something wrong from this unusual thing.
Why does it seem like the Prime Minister is arranging a retreat for his daughter?
Thinking of this, Su Shengsheng couldn't help but look back at Ji Yanli again, only to see that he was also looking at her.
But since Xie Xuan was by her side and this matter was not her place to ask, Su Shengsheng hesitated and did not speak.
According to Master Ji, Miss Wang, who had access to Wang Yongshou's study, saw him rummaging through things.
But she didn't report it?
Without even being on guard, Ji Yanli took the imperial edict away safely from the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Is it true that he is naive and too simple?
Or do you trust Ji Yanli too much?
Or, is it admiration?
Su Shengsheng thought about it for a while and felt that the last one was more likely.
Ji Yanli is a man of etiquette. Even if he goes to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he will never go to the inner courtyard.
If the Prime Minister wants to bring the two together, he will naturally create opportunities for them.
I'm afraid that Wang Yongshou was not in the study, and Miss Wang entered the study intentionally?
Only then did I see Ji Yanli rummaging through things.
Just thinking about this, Su Shengsheng was no longer panicked.
No wonder Ji Yanli asked them to travel in disguise.
If Miss Wang didn't dare to look at Ji Yanli that day because of shyness or something, she might not have noticed anything unusual.
Then after some time, maybe when Wang Yongshou finds out, he will mistakenly think it is someone else.
Master Ji...still wants to help them gather intelligence.
Sure enough, after analyzing that the matter was of great importance, Ji Yanli suggested that Xie Xuan send people to the Prime Minister's Mansion to steal in order to confuse the public.
In this way, Wang Yongshou would not suspect him, and he could continue to ambush Wang Yongshou.
But what if someone finds out?
"This is also easy to verify." Xie Xuan's eyes swept over the two men's faces and said, "Just send people to steal things, but don't go straight to the secret compartment. Wait until Wang Yongshou discovers the thieves and see if he checks the secret compartment. If he does, it proves he doesn't know yet. If he does, let the second wave of thieves break in and knock him out. Before he faints, tell them that you know the Prime Minister's Mansion can't have just this little money. Pretend to lure him to the most important place, and then knock him out to create the illusion of a complete looting."
Ji Yanli quickly understood Xie Xuan's intention and followed his suggestion, "Then, afterward, this group of thieves will find out it was just an imperial edict. They're using it to threaten the Prime Minister into meeting, and they can also gather some clues along the way."
On this point, the two of them actually thought of the same thing tacitly.
But who is the right person to send?
Everyone around Xie Xuan has shown their faces, and it is estimated that they have also registered with the emperor.
Mu Ze went to Liangzhou, and Chu Zhao was not with Xie Xuan, so the emperor had to suspect Xie Xuan first.
So we can only send people we are familiar with.
Ji Yanli knew that he could not help with this, so he went to draw a map of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After thinking for a while, Xie Xuan finally said, "Let Yang Tang and the others go. They are unfamiliar to me and have been recovering from their injuries, so they haven't seen outsiders."
For something like this, it is necessary to find a few people who don't often appear around Xie Xuan, and they must be bold, careful and reliable.
Su Shengsheng had no objection. "We should be prepared for any eventuality and send someone to protect Master Ji."
Xie Xuan didn't even think twice. "Let General Han go, and add Ning Jie. After all, he's tied for third place, so he won't be a big deal."
Su Shengsheng understood what he meant.
Ning Jie and Ji Yanli were both ranked third in the imperial examination and took the imperial examination together, so they were acquaintances.
Since General Han plays with Ning Jie, it is natural that he can appear next to Ji Yanli.
It is said that Ning Jie has made great progress in martial arts, but with the addition of General Han who grew up in the military camp with Xie Xuan, he has a 70% chance of success.
Then he picked up a small and inconspicuous little Pan and followed Ji Yanli, and he was completely protected.
After all, the two little ones can't always follow Ji Yanli in and out.
The two men agreed that they would discuss the matter with Ji Yanli after he returned with the painting.
But I learned something surprising from him.
"You mean, Ning Jie beat Jun Yao?"
Su Shengsheng repeated it in amazement, unable to believe what she heard.
Ning Jie beat Jun Yao!
