"Yes, young master!" Long Yi bowed and accepted the order.
"Ye Yi, what's the situation in Zhaoyang Country?" Mu Lige withdrew his gaze from Long Yi and turned his eyes to an expressionless man in black in the crowd.
(Those with the prefix “影” are the secret guards protecting Mu Lige; those with the prefix “夜” are the spies sent by Mu Lige to gather information.)
"Report to the young master, since Su Mutianjun ascended the throne, he has gradually neglected state affairs and indulged in women. Now, more than half of the power of Zhaoyang Kingdom has fallen into the hands of the national teacher Ran Qiyue. According to the report of the spies, Ran Qiyue has a close relationship with Qin Shuyao and intends to support the crown prince Su Mulihan." Ye Yi reported the news truthfully.
[Su Mulihan: 19 years old, the same age as Mu Lige. The eldest son of Su Mutianjun and Qin Shuyao, and the current crown prince of Zhaoyang Kingdom.]
"Closely related?"
"hehe……"
Mu Lige smiled slightly.
"No matter how close their relationship is, how can it be as close as a biological son? In my opinion, Ran Qiyue's actions are probably for ulterior motives. This Su Mulihan is probably just a target, a target for Ran Qiyue to use to fend off the attacks from various forces!"
"The person Ran Qiyue really wants to support should be Shangguan Yuechan's son—Su Mulijing. Because, he... is actually Ran Qiyue's biological son."
Mu Lige tapped the table lightly with his bony fingers, a sneer appearing at the corner of his lips.
"Young Master, this..." Ye Yi couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard that.
"Listen, our plans have changed."
Mu Lige swept a sharp gaze over everyone present.
"Strike first, and you'll be defeated later. I'm afraid the secret of my identity as the former crown prince of Zhaoyang Kingdom won't last much longer. Before that, we must hurry and do something."
Mu Lige opened his lips slightly and calmly instructed the subordinates with the prefix "Ye" who were responsible for gathering information: "Find a way to tell Su Mu Tianjun that Su Mulijing is Ran Qiyue's biological son. It's not easy for him to be a green-headed turtle for more than ten years! Let's... let them fight each other for now!"
"Yes, young master!"
Then, the other subordinates also reported the information they had obtained. Mu Lige responded to them one by one personally and gave orders on what they would be responsible for next.
At 7:15 PM, Mu Lige walked out of Jinxiufang. Behind him was the cold-faced evil spirit from Zuo'an, as well as Shumo and Lixiang, who were holding pieces of cloth.
The sun set over the distant mountains, and dusk gradually deepened. Mu Lige looked up at the magnificent sunset in the sky, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "Qingqing will be finishing school soon. Let's go pick her up!"
"Yes, Masaru-kun."
After putting the cloth in place, Shu Molixiang jumped nimbly onto the driver's seat of the carriage and drove the carriage towards the Imperial College.
As for Zuo An, he rode the Red Hare that Hua Qingcheng had tricked from Li Nuo (the person Su Mutianjun sent to find Wu Chen), and followed Mu Lige's carriage at a leisurely pace.
