A Cai's work The Emperor's Phoenix: The Godly Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine ... Volume 1 1946 Wants to kill the Ninth Uncle and Feng Qingchen
Those who follow me will risk their lives, and those who defy me will perish.
Anyone Wang Jinling wants to replace will always be dismissed for various reasons. If a smart person voluntarily resigns, Wang Jinling will not kill him. If someone wants to fight to the death with Wang Jinling, Wang Jinling is not afraid either. Let's just fight and see who has the better move.
Wang Jinling is not a person who is attached to power. Although he is now in a high position with enormous power and the power of life and death, he has never thought of clinging to power.
He had no choice but to do so. In addition to the fact that these people did have ulterior motives and were not conducive to the stability of the court, he also had to leave a way out for the Wang family.
This purge left many important positions vacant. Wang Jinling did not promote anyone related to himself or the Wang family, but instead promoted many former princelings.
Those officials were once subordinates of the King of Jiangnan, and almost all of them were implicated in the King of Jiangnan's affairs. Although they were not dismissed from office or lost their lives, they had not been reused for many years, and many of them even remained idle at home.
Wang Jinling selected some useful people and promoted them to important positions, which gave enough face to King Jiangnan. If King Jiangnan came back to take charge of the situation half a year later, Wang Jinling would be able to hand over power smoothly and not let King Jiangnan be afraid of him.
Of course, it doesn’t matter even if the King of Jiangnan has no hope of returning. Imperial power is all about balance. If one faction is too strong and threatens the imperial power, then death is not far away.
Wang Jinling knew that he was extremely powerful. At this time, he could not only not expand his own power, but also try to reduce it. If he suppressed one faction, he would have to support another faction so that the various forces could check and balance each other. In this way, no matter who became the emperor in the end, Wang Jinling could withdraw safely and the Wang family would not be implicated.
Being at the center of power, he could see things so clearly and let go. Wang Jinling lived up to his reputation as a gentleman. Mrs. Min would occasionally hear news about the previous dynasty from the concubines, and she couldn't help but praise Wang Jinling in her heart: Dong Lingjiu picked a good assistant. With Wang Jinling, there's no need to worry about not having the world.
The concubines in the harem treated Wang Jinling's actions as a topic of conversation after dinner. They could not see the deep meaning of Wang Jinling's actions, but that did not mean that Madam Min could not understand it.
Madam Min has never been a simple woman. Her focus is not on the small harem. Her sensitivity to the situation is beyond the reach of many men.
From Wang Jinling's actions of supporting the former prince's people, Madam Min keenly realized that the Ninth Prince was in danger!
There can't be two tigers in one mountain. If the Ninth Prince was not in danger, Wang Jinling would never have strongly supported the King of Jiangnan's people.
Even if it was uncertain, this was a good opportunity, and Madam Min did not want to let it go. At this time, good news came again. People in Liancheng found the whereabouts of Feng Liqingge.
Feng Li Qingge gave birth to a son, but there were people protecting her secretly, so they could not get close to her. They could only infer from the time of the child's birth that the child was Lan Jingyang's son.
"Okay, okay, okay." If there weren't a group of women watching her, Mrs. Min would have cheered.
"Since the Lan family has an heir, Feng Qingchen has no need to exist." Madam Min held the Buddhist beads tightly in her hand...
Regardless of whether Dong Lingjiu was in danger or not, she wanted Dong Lingjiu to be in danger. Even if Dong Lingjiu was fine, Feng Qingchen could not be allowed to live.
If there was no legitimate daughter of Feng Li, the people of Feng Li clan would support Feng Li Qingge and her children; Feng Qingchen died because of Dong Lingjiu, so the Feng Li clan turned against Dong Lingjiu.
King Fengli is dead, so there is no need for Fengli's daughter to survive!
The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen, who had already entered the Imperial Mausoleum, had no idea that Madam Min, who was far away in the Imperial City, was secretly plotting to take their lives...
The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen have already walked in front of the imperial mausoleum marked on the map of Jiuzhou.
The imperial mausoleum was like a small hill. Standing in front of it, one could not see the bottom. Even with a map, one could not enter the mausoleum just because they wanted to. The two stone gates in front of them, as tall as city gates, blocked their way.
The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen looked up, and Feng Qingchen stepped back silently: "With just a few of us, I don't think we can push it open."
These two stone doors weigh at least a thousand pounds. If it weren't for the thin crack in the middle, they would look like a whole piece of stone from a distance, embedded in the mountain and connected to the mountain.
"We can't blow it up." The Ninth Prince took a step back, took a look at the structure of the imperial mausoleum, and silently erased the idea of using a thunder bomb to blow it up from his mind.
The imperial tombs of the previous dynasties were built like palaces, and had long been hollowed out inside. The thunder bombs were too weak to blow them open, and if they were too strong, they might blow up the entire imperial tomb and cause a ground subsidence, and they would have to be buried with the emperors of the previous dynasties.
"Let's look around, there should be another way." Xuan Shaoqi stepped forward, put on a pair of gloves as thin as a cicada's wings, and groped around in the stone door, trying to find a way out like a mechanism.
"Let's look for it together." Feng Qingchen took out two dozen medical gloves from the smart medical bag and handed them to the Ninth Uncle and the Eighteenth Riders: "Be careful, these are not the Heaven Silk Silk gloves of Palace Master Xuan, they are easy to tear."
This place was full of poisonous corpses and poisonous insects. They had been walking in the imperial mausoleum for about a month and had long been accustomed to touching everything directly. Those with wounds did not dare to touch anything in the imperial mausoleum easily, for fear of being possessed and dying without knowing how.
The stone door was smooth and flat, with no bumps or bumps except for the crack in the middle. There was definitely no mechanism at all. Xuan Shaoqi and the Eighteen Riders gave up immediately and turned their attention to the stone next to the stone door.
"Let's search separately." Xuan Shaoqi tiptoed and jumped to the top of the imperial tomb.
The Ninth Prince took a look and also jumped up, and started searching with Xuan Shaoqi on the left and right, while the Eighteen Riders searched on both sides of the stone gate. They searched very carefully, inch by inch, without missing any details.
Feng Qingchen thought about it and decided to stay with the Snow Wolf, standing quietly below and waiting.
The imperial mausoleum was very large, and it would take more than an hour or two to search it completely. The man and the wolf felt embarrassed to just stand there in silence, so they walked around the mausoleum to see if they could help.
Of course, Feng Qingchen could only help a limited amount, mainly because of the snow wolf. Although the snow wolf was not a dog, its nose was very sharp, and the snow wolf sniffed everywhere. Not to mention, the snow wolf really discovered the difference...
"Awoo...Awoo" the snow wolf howled, its tail erect, its teeth bared, and its face looked ferocious, as if it had encountered a ferocious enemy.
"What did you find?" Feng Qingchen asked. The Snow Wolf barked twice but refused to move forward. It was not until the Ninth Prince, Xuan Shaoqi and the Eighteen Riders came over that the Snow Wolf started running forward.
The snow wolf is becoming more and more clever. I must reward it well when I get back.
The Ninth Prince gave Snow Wolf an approving look and said to the eighteen riders behind him, “Follow them and see.”
Led by the Snow Wolf, everyone ran all the way to a small corner southwest of the imperial mausoleum.
This corner was inconspicuous, with a pile of stones piled there in a disorderly manner, like the extra waste from the construction of the imperial mausoleum. Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince did not notice anything unusual, but the snow wolf roared loudly at that corner. The Ninth Prince was about to go forward to check, but the snow wolf bit his trouser leg...
