Chapter 500 I Will Make Them Die
Mo Qing had also been following the news from the capital, and immediately opened the letter to check.
His eyes became more profound as he read the letter.
"Dad, what happened?" Mo Jiuye asked hurriedly when he saw him put the letter down.
"The letter said that Emperor Shunwu hadn't attended court in ten days, and the court was now divided into three factions. Half supported Nan Heng, while the rest supported Prince Rui and the Fourth Prince.
The prefect reported to the court the matter of us killing the assassins sent by the queen. At that time, Emperor Shunwu, under the instigation of someone unknown, handed the matter over to Prime Minister Xue to handle.
Prime Minister Xue did not even investigate, and reported the matter to Emperor Shunwu a few days later, saying that the more than 200 people who died in the northwest were local civilians. Because the Mohist School wanted to occupy their land, Jiuye brutally killed them.
When this matter was reported to Emperor Shunwu, he was furious. If it were not for the persuasion of Prince Rui and Mr. Fei, who suspected that there was something hidden, Emperor Shunwu would have sent troops to the northwest to capture Jiuye and bring him to justice.
Because of this, Prince Rui had a very unhappy relationship with the Queen's party, and his current situation is getting even worse."
Mo Jiuye clenched his fists: "What a great queen, what a great Xue family! I will make sure they die a miserable death."
He Zhiran was also very angry at this moment. If it were in the past, she would just listen to such things. Unless Mo Qing asked her, she would not take the initiative to express her opinion. But today was different. The Xue family was simply going too far.
"Dad, the greenhouse will be ready in two days. I plan to go to the capital with my husband. Since they are not letting the Mo family have an easy time, let's take the initiative and get rid of all those who have bad intentions towards the Mo family."
"We must go to the capital. The men in my Mo family are not cowards. It is not your turn as a woman to take the lead in this matter." Mo Xing was the first to stand up and object.
In his opinion, the ninth daughter-in-law was just a little smarter. How could he let a weak woman like her who was powerless as hell go on a charge into battle?
He Zhiran was also anxious just now, so he directly expressed his thoughts.
Now that the words have been spoken, there is no reason to take them back. Besides, this matter was discussed in advance between her and Mo Jiuye.
Mo Jiuye didn't agree with her going at first. On the one hand, he was worried that she would be in danger, and on the other hand, he was considering the two newborn children.
But no one understood He Zhiran's temper as well as he did. No matter how much people tried to persuade her, she would not change her mind about what she wanted to do.
Helpless, Mo Jiuye had no choice but to compromise.
However, he had reached an agreement with He Zhiran. He could take her to the capital, but if she encountered danger, she could not care about anything else and had to hide in the space to save her life as soon as possible.
If He Zhiran doesn't agree, he won't compromise.
In order to go to the capital, she would agree to any condition, let alone something so simple, even if it was a bit more demanding.
Therefore, the couple discussed the plan early on. Regardless of whether they could receive news from the capital, they would set off for the capital after the greenhouse was built.
Since he had already promised his wife to take her with him, Mo Jiuye naturally had to stand up and speak for her when his family objected.
"Dad, Ranran wants to follow me to the capital, mainly to meet her father-in-law. After all, they haven't seen each other for more than a year, and as a daughter, she will definitely miss her father."
Mo Jiuye understood the tempers of his father and brother. As people who had experienced life and death on the battlefield, how could they let a woman participate in these fights?
The best way is to take advantage of the fact that the daughter-in-law misses her father.
He Zhiran also realized at this moment that he was too anxious just now and forgot the bloodiness of Mohist men.
"Dad, I was just too anxious. Actually, I came to Beijing just to see my father."
After thinking for a moment, she continued.
"My mother and eldest brother have both fallen in love with the Northwest and plan to settle down here for a long time. I came to Beijing this time to persuade my father to resign from his official position and leave that vortex of struggle as soon as possible.
My father loves me the most, and I'm afraid he'll only listen to me if I say this, so I've decided to go to the capital with my husband. He'll go do his important work, and I'll stay in the Shangshu Mansion to persuade my father."
After hearing what He Zhiran said, Mo Qing had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't stop his daughter-in-law from visiting relatives because of his own subjective thoughts.
He took a deep breath and said, "In that case, you and your spouse should discuss this matter between yourselves. However, successfully resolving the crisis facing the Mohist Clan this time in the capital will not be an easy task. I will discuss specific countermeasures with you brothers later. We have our own people in the Mohist Clan, so we can't let you take this risk alone."
In Mo Qing's opinion, it is not easy to resolve the crisis in the capital. Although his ninth son is capable, no one can do such a thing alone.
Besides, all nine of his sons are here now. Except for the fourth son who is not as convenient as other brothers, everyone can participate.
If all else fails, there are still Liang Hao and Tao Ran, a group of good brothers. Any one of them will be a great help to Mo Jiuye if he goes along.
If it were in the past, Mo Jiuye would have had the same idea and taken a few capable brothers with him.
But this time it was different. My wife went with him. She had a space and would take some special items from it to use when necessary.
Although Mo Jiuye has been the scapegoat for more than a year, there are still reasonable ways for those things to be exposed.
It would be different if he went to the capital. If he wanted to use the simplest method to get rid of those who did evil to the Mohist School, his wife would definitely come up with many unexpected things. If someone else saw it at that time, he really wouldn't be able to find a reason to explain it.
What's more, his wife's space is a huge secret, and he will never allow anyone else to know it.
"Dad, have you ever thought about this? The Mo family is now considered a criminal in the eyes of the emperor. If we go to the capital and make a big mark, it will be easy to expose our whereabouts. What's more, there is no guarantee that the northwest will be safe.
I'll take Ranran to Beijing and send her to my father-in-law first. I can check the general situation by myself first. After I understand myself and the enemy, I can ask Xiaobai to send a letter back, and then I can send someone to help."
Mo Qing agreed with Mo Jiuye's words in his heart, but he was still a little worried, so he did not respond immediately.
Instead, it was the fourth brother who was sitting next to him who spoke.
"Father, I agree with my ninth brother's idea. We only know about the current situation in the capital from letters, and we can only roughly analyze the situation.
Instead of going with so many people in a big way, it would be better to do as Ninth Brother said and go and check it out first before making a decision.
The little white boy that Ninth Brother raised is indeed very capable. It only takes four days to travel from the capital to the northwest. We just need to follow Ninth Brother's arrangements. It's not too late to act after receiving his news."
