My idea is that we need to find a reason to force Lan Xiuyuan to change his strategy, to make him think that he has no choice but to use everything he has to deliver a final blow. Only in this way can we finally rest easy!
Jun Yannuo listened for a long time but still couldn't figure out Qin Kou'er's specific method.
"But how can we force Lan Xiuyuan, who is determined to sink and rise again, to take action at this time?"
“I’ve already thought of that. We’ll make an issue of his background!” Qin Kou’er said without hesitation.
"Background? What's there to make a fuss about regarding your background!"
Jun Yannuo still looked at Qin Kou'er with suspicion.
Qin Kou'er smiled coldly: "Not only can we make a fuss about our background, but we can make a big fuss about it, allowing us to completely destroy all of Hu Tianyong's support in one fell swoop."
Qin Kou'er's idea was simple yet ruthless: if Lan Jiayuan's background could be fake, why couldn't Lan Xiuyuan's background also be fake? If Lan Xiuyuan discovered at this time that he was not Lan Shanyang's child, then even if she did nothing, Lan Xiuyuan would take the initiative to rebel.
She believed that Lan Xiuyuan's cultivation had not yet reached the point of invincibility, and as long as she found the right acupoints, she could still strike him with one blow.
Qin Kou'er's plan was simple: she would find a few elders in the palace and spread the word about this matter. Once Lan Jiayuan heard the news, he would inevitably become restless, and the first person he would think of would be Hu Tianyong.
However, Lan Xiuyuan will never be able to see Hu Tianyong in this lifetime. But seeing Hu Tianyong's chief steward is still no problem.
Sometimes, you don't even need any special methods to deal with these people. Just a few slaps of the cane and the steward will be able to say whatever she wants.
When Lan Xiuyuan hears snippets of information from these people, he gradually comes to believe in this direction.
Finally, Qin Kou'er revealed some more information about the Emperor to him, and she didn't believe that Lan Xiuyuan would be able to remain calm in the end.
Moreover, his final move was right beside him.
Thinking of all this, a strange smile appeared on Qin Kou'er's lips.
Seeing the changes in Qin Kou'er's expression, Jun Yannuo knew that she must have thought through all the details, so he said nothing and just waited for Qin Kou'er to give him the final arrangements.
"Yan Nuo, go and prepare for my wedding. Remember, after today, make it a grand affair. Prepare everything as if it were real. Also, send me a list of the people closest to Hu Tianyong, and bring me a list of all their relatives as well!"
Okay! I'll bring it to you later!
Qin Kou'er nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "Have we found any of the old servants from the Hu family? Is there anyone who was closely related to them?"
Jun Yannuo shook his head: "We investigated this matter a long time ago, but the only person who knows about it is Granny Hu, and we don't have any other information!"
"Don't you have any relatives left?"
Although Qin Kou'er was already aware of the matter, she was still somewhat unwilling to give up.
Jun Yannuo thought for a moment, "Back then, I did find out that I had a nephew who was still alive. However, it was quite difficult to investigate later, so I didn't pay much attention! Besides, he wasn't a direct descendant, so I didn't follow up. But I remember Mo Hun saying that this nephew seemed to live in the capital! I don't know what he's like now!"
Qin Kou'er immediately became interested and said to Jun Yannuo, "Have Mo Hun find this person for me as soon as possible. Then hide him secretly. I need to keep him!"
Jun Yannuo nodded, "I'll have my men do it right away! Mo Hun can't leave right now!"
Qin Kou'er nodded, then asked as if she remembered something, "Was Hu Feifan also imprisoned like the rest of the Hu family?"
"Yes! He's the eldest son and grandson of the Hu family; he can't escape this kind of situation!"
Qin Kou'er nodded. "He's a decent person. At least much better than his grandfather. It's a good thing his mother died a long time ago, otherwise, he would have cried himself to death!"
Jun Yannuo said with a smile, "Yes! The execution of the entire family is just so unreasonable! Hu Feifan is really unlucky. He is about the same age as Lan Xiuyuan, but he is imprisoned and about to be beheaded. It's really sad!"
Qin Kou'er sighed softly, then turned to Jun Yannuo and asked, "You just remembered that Lan Xiuyuan and Hu Feifan's birthdays seem to be very close, don't you think?"
Jun Yannuo nodded, "Yes! It seems to be only a dozen days off, not half a month! Hu Feifan was born in a mountain villa outside, and was only brought back half a year later! They said the place where he was born had particularly good feng shui, making it especially suitable for raising children."
At this point, Jun Yannuo glanced at Qin Kou'er's belly as if he were not paying attention, "How about I ask around for you later? Let's try borrowing that feng shui!"
Qin Kou'er immediately laughed, giving Jun Yannuo a playful glare, "You're never serious! Alright, let's do it my way!"
Jun Yannuo nodded, then stood side by side with Qin Kou'er, gazing into the distance and murmuring, "I wonder what kind of bloody storm will rage in the court today!"
Qin Kou'er gazed into the distance without answering. She knew in her heart that Hu Tianyong was doomed today, and things would only get worse; there was no limit to how bad things could get.
Qin Kou'er's prediction was absolutely correct; Hu Tianyong never dreamed that he would crawl out of the Golden Palace on his knees.
Lan Shanyang was furious. In front of all the court officials and the people of the world, he was furious for the first time without reservation.
