Chapter 208: The Childless Marquis vs. His Tingxin Fiancée (22)



Wushuang glanced at Mrs. Su.

[Wow, I was wondering why Madam Su had become so haggard in just two years of marriage. She must have been irritated by the people in the Duke's Mansion.]

I never thought that Duke Su and his son, two good-for-nothings of the same bloodline, would actually get involved in a rebellion?

[These two people completely support Prince Su's rebellion and are now helping people recruit soldiers? ]

[Oh, oh, oh, Duke Su and his son actually helped Prince Su conceal the discovery of the iron and gold mines? How audacious! Do they really think the emperor is a vegetarian?]

Shangguan Sui, the Marquis of Changping, who was chatting with others in the flower hall, heard his wife's voice and couldn't help but look back at where she was.

Prince Su's rebellion also involves Duke Su's Mansion?

Shangguan Sui knew Duke Su, and he knew that he was a real good-for-nothing.

Duke Su was the study partner of the former crown prince, Mo Xuan's elder brother. Later, the former crown prince was killed for treason, and Duke Su became quiet.

Duke Su has been very absurd over the years.

There were countless concubines in the backyard, and he even extended his hands to the backyards of his mother and brothers, and touched many maids.

When he was outside, Duke Su often visited brothels and spent a lot of money on the girls there.

They would even fight with others for the right to the virginity of the courtesan.

Such absurd things have become common over the years.

When the old Duke passed away, there were rumors that Duke Su had angered his father to death, because no father could bear to see the things he had done.

But the old Duke was already bedridden, and it was unclear whether it was Duke Su who was angered to death.

The fact that this guy was able to successfully inherit the title of Duke also put an end to the fact that he angered his father to death, that is, this matter was a rumor, otherwise how could an unfilial son inherit the title?

Duke Su's son had similar moral character to him. Although not as absurd as him, he was also a guy who had no ambition, was greedy for money and lustful.

Shangguan Sui couldn't help but frown.

As a founding hero, Duke Su had military power in his hands.

Although the one who holds the military power is Emperor Mo Xuan, a powerful emperor who was once brave and good at fighting and repelled the enemy several times with his own abilities, those nobles still have their own power.

If Duke Su was involved in the rebellion, the emperor would definitely be in trouble.

Also, the prince of Mo Yuncheng will definitely be in a passive position.

Shangguan Sui was very worried about whether the position of the crown prince of Moyun City could be stabilized.

Because it was a party hosted by his sister, Mo Yuncheng also came to participate because he was curious about whether Wushuang would reveal any information in such an occasion.

So of course Mo Yuncheng also heard Wushuang's thoughts.

Mo Yuncheng walked to Shangguan Sui's side, and the two looked at each other, both confirming that the other could hear what was in their hearts.

On the other side, Wushuang blocked her brother and the others. She had accidentally let Zhang Rui and Zhang Xie hear her thoughts before, so now she could block them.

So now only Shangguan Sui and the others can hear Wushuang's thoughts.

"Speaking of which, waiter, where are the iron and gold mines that Duke Su and his son hid?" Wushuang asked in his heart.

[Waiter: The iron mines are in Yanzhou, and the gold mines are in Xizhou.]

[The distance between Yanzhou and Xizhou isn't that close.] Wushuang was stunned.

I can understand why the iron ore found in Yanzhou could be kept secret; it was Prince Su's fiefdom, after all. But what about Xizhou? Xizhou has no connection to Prince Su, right?

[Waiter: The people from Duke Su's mansion in Xizhou discovered a gold mine and then kept it secret.]

[Waiter: Have you forgotten? The first Duke Su was stationed in Xizhou. It's normal for some of his men to remain after so many years.]

[Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, the first Duke Su actually had a backup plan? Did he once also intend to rebel?]

[Waiter: The first generation of Duke Su didn't, but the third generation wondered why his family couldn't overthrow the Mohist school and become emperor himself.]

[Waiter: So, they reorganized their forces, but who would have thought that they still haven't achieved their goal?]

Wushuang really didn't expect such a thing to happen.

The third generation Duke Su? Isn't that the grandfather of the current Duke Su?

Who would have known that their family had been so diligently planning a rebellion for so many years, and now they were dragging Prince Su into it.

The people in Duke Su's mansion want to rebel and become emperor. Prince Su also wants to become emperor. How did they get involved? What if, in the unlikely event of a rebellion, they succeed? Who will be the emperor?

[Waiter: Well, if you think about it, you'll know that Duke Su and his son are definitely no match for Prince Su.]

It doesn’t matter whether Duke Su was such a bad person in the beginning. He has been in decline for so many years and it is impossible for him to rise again.

The same is true for the Prince of Su. Although he is a little smart, he is still a little inferior to Prince Su.

If this father and son want to fight against Prince Su, they definitely don't have a 50% chance of winning.

"So, if the rebellion succeeds, Prince Su will definitely be the emperor?" Wushuang couldn't help but frown. "This scumbag who even mistook his own white moonlight for someone else, actually has the makings of an emperor."

[After all, Prince Su loves himself the most, so he will definitely not have any true love after becoming emperor...]

[Waiter: But host, if Prince Su becomes emperor, are you sure he will treat the people well?]

[Waiter: Although the emperor still advocates ruthlessness, and although he is not a good husband, and perhaps not a good father either, if he wants to be a good emperor, he must be kind to the people of the world.]

[Waiter: Do you think Prince Su is this kind of person?]

"Of course not." Wushuang firmly retorted in his heart, "How could Prince Su be a good emperor who loves his people like his own children?"

[Waiter: Although Prince Su hasn't done anything outrageous over the years, he looks down on the common people. He has no intention of working for their well-being.]

[Waiter: He wanted to be emperor simply because the emperor was the most powerful person in the world. He wanted to be the most honorable and powerful person, that's all.]

Wushuang understood that Prince Su was not a good candidate for emperor.

"In this case, it would be better for His Royal Highness to ascend the throne. After all, he has received an imperial education since childhood and is a pretty good person." Wushuang said.

Mo Yuncheng is indeed a good prince. Although he is a bit sinister, he is indeed very capable and treats the people very well.

After becoming an adult, Mo Yuncheng often did things that benefited the country and the people. It can be said that the prince's reputation is quite high.

But Wushuang wondered, if Mo Xuan grew older and the prince's reputation grew, would the prince be in danger?

Which emperor would want to have his power taken away before he dies?

Even if he is your beloved son, it is not allowed.
