The carriage passed through the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, and finally slowed down in a block close to the city wall of Nancheng. This block belongs to the neighborhood of ordinary middle and upper-class citizens. The environment is beautiful and the trees are shaded. In particular, it also attracts a canal of Fanjiang River, adding a bit of pastoral scenery. The main choice of this area is the retired officials and the urban wealthy business class. Many retired officials in the central and local empires have chosen this area as the place for property management and business development. This area is also loved by wealthy businessmen in the middle and upper-class imperial capital. It can be seen from the continuous mansions around it.

This is a courtyard that is no different from the surrounding mansion. There are black tiles along the blue-gray courtyard wall. From the outside, except for the courtyard being a little large, there is nothing special. The gate is also an ordinary double-fan-folded door. There are no stone lions or copper lions that wealthy people like at the door. The third-level bluestone steps go straight to the gate.

As soon as the carriage stopped, two guards who had been sitting in the front wing jumped out. As the roller shutter was lifted, a thin figure also came out and got out of the car and knocked on the door.

The door opened and closed, and the carriage quickly disappeared in front of the door.

In the back garden, the girl in the palace dress was already sitting opposite an old man with white hair and beard. Koi carp were playing in the fish pond, shuttled like arrows, and water droplets were everywhere. The old man casually threw fish food and teased the fish in the pond, looking very leisurely.

"Old He, everything is ready. Now I'll wait for Li Wufeng to enter Zhongzhou." Trying to suppress the joy in my heart, the girl in the palace dress was filled with joy, and her tone could not hide her excitement.

"Your Highness, are you really going to do this?" It seems that it is not as happy as the girl in the palace dress imagined. The old man with white hair sighed and then said leisurely: "Your Highness must consider the consequences of this. Many things may not be as perfect as we imagined in the end."

As his eyes narrowed, the girl in the palace dress looked much more restrained, "Old He, what else do you have to worry about? You might as well say it out loud. Now that you have reached this point, the empire will be supported by you loyal old ministers. If you are discouraged, you are afraid that the situation in the empire will be irreversible."

Shaking his head, the old man with white hair and hair appeared in deep thought on his face, and he slowly said, "Your Highness, have you considered it? Once Li Wufeng really had a problem in the imperial capital, where will the situation develop? Who can control the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Western Xinjiang? If Li Wufeng escapes by chance, he will inevitably raise the banner of rebellion. The former may lead to a melee, while the latter is that the empire may immediately face rebellion in the Western Xinjiang, and the entire empire will immediately be full of war. Such a result will inevitably allow those foreign tribes to take the opportunity to benefit, the Machikhans, the Milans, the Japanese, and the Liberians. This will make us lose the most important people's hearts. I beg your highness to consider it again."

"No, Mr. He, there is no room for negotiation on this matter. Li Wufeng must be eliminated! He is the biggest enemy of our Situ family. No foreign strong enemy can destroy our Tanghe Empire. Only he is the greatest danger to the empire. You and I know this better than anyone else!" The girl in the palace dress looked solemn and said sternly: "As for what you said about Liberians, Maqikhans, or Japanese, they are just scabies, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation. As long as we can eliminate Li Wufeng, even if these foreign enemies can show their momentary power, as long as the empire recovers, they will definitely be able to regain the lost step by step. I firmly believe that the empire can do this!"

The last piece of fish food was finally thrown into the pond and nodded. The white-haired old man finally realized that this was an inevitable ending. Of course, he knew that if this continued, Li Wufeng would sooner or later become a gravedigger of the Tanghe Empire, but he could not assert that what would bring to the Tanghe nation. However, he was an old minister of the two dynasties of the Tanghe Empire. He could not see the empire being destroyed like this. Besides, he begged for himself with such noble status as the Thirteenth Princess, and He Zhiqiu had no choice but to refuse.

"Since your highness has made up his mind, I won't say more. Since Li Wufeng has set off, he will probably arrive at the imperial capital within a week. As long as Li Wufeng enters Zhongzhou, Qinghe can arrange for the 14th Legion to immediately change defense with the City Guards, order the City Guards to go south to take over the defense of Jinzhong, and the Fourth Legion to adjust to the southern part of the imperial capital. If Ying Jianming dares to resist, order Yousufu and Xu Xiangyang to join forces to solve the problem on the spot!" It seemed that he had regained his previous decision at once. The former Minister of Military Affairs had a bright eyes and a murderous intent.

"What if Jianming followed the order to adjust defense?" The palace-dressed girl was obviously not as cruel as the veteran military officer in front of her. She was a little worried whether the deputy commander of the Fourth Legion and the commander of the First Division, who was suspected to be Li Wufeng's secret chess, was really as suspected as the intelligence department.

"That's better, this is enough to prove his innocence. As long as he follows the order, we will not be very serious about ourselves. Doing doubts about his identity needs to be further implemented. It is also a taboo to act on the general without any evidence. It is very easy to shake the morale of the army. Unless we have reliable evidence, but in order to ensure the absolute success of this operation, as long as Ying Jianming refuses to obey the order, your highness can order the military headquarters to authorize Yusufu to completely solve the other party." He Zhiqiu knew that even if he was a wrong kill in this situation, it would be forced to do so. After all, once such a thing goes wrong, it will never be restored. "However, Yusufu, the city guard, is a very difficult fence-bearer. Are you absolutely sure? Once a problem occurs, we really have no power to turn the world back."

"Don't worry, Mr. He, Yusufu's son is surrounded by me all day long. I have brought letters to his father through him. As long as his father supports me, I can marry him after the matter is done." The girl in the palace dress said decisively after a few changes in her face, "Yusufu has always been favored by his son, and I think he should be willing to take this bet."

He Zhiqiu was silent for a while. Of course, he knew that although Yusufu's son was a well-known scholar in the imperial capital, he was obsessed with the other party for some reason and failed to pursue it for several years. However, if he wanted to hope to get favor from His Highness Thirteenth Princess, it would be too slim. However, if this matter was used as a deal, there was indeed a possibility that Yusufu would be moved. However, it would be a bit wrong to marry the other party with the literary talent and appearance of the Thirteenth Princess. However, he could not interfere in such a thing, otherwise it would be difficult for Yusufu to serve his own life sincerely.

"Your Highness, is this "``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````

"How is Ma Yuan doing over there? He is afraid that he will not only have to go through a hard battle when he takes action outside the city. Song Tianxiong led the division to be Li Wufeng's guard division. Now Li Wufeng has arranged heavy troops in Longquan, Hejian. Once things change, the Western Xinjiang side will definitely give all their strength to help. Although there are city guards, the city guards are now too much in the last bloody battle with the Kamans. Many soldiers are newly added and their combat power has been weakened. It is still quite difficult to resist the main force of the Western Xinjiang army. If he can take action in the city, he will be much more sure." He Zhiqiu sighed in his heart and had to turn the topic. It is well known that His princess's temper is so stubborn that it is difficult to convince the other side.

"There are still some difficulties here. Brother Six has been hesitating on this issue and refused to admit it clearly, but I can feel that Ma Yuansheng's abnormal performance must be related to him. I think it will probably take him until he enters Beijing to have a definite result. However, I believe he can see the current situation clearly, and I plan to persuade the elder brother to make some concessions in exchange for Brother Six's support. Ma Yuansheng's family is controlled by him. Without Ma Yuansheng, we cannot control the Imperial Guards. Li Wufeng entered the city and became safe." The girl in the palace dress said hatefully.

"Your Highness does not have to worry too much. Although the Imperial Guard is in Ma Yuanling's hands, as long as Ma Yuanling does not appear, I can still exert some influence. Although Huangfu Tiancheng has been in love with Western Xinjiang, I know that Huangfu Tiancheng has always been loyal and brave. He must have such thoughts because he feels hopeless in the current situation. I plan to have a deep conversation with him and advise him to repent. If he is really stubborn, Your Highness might as well send someone to resolve him. Lao I will be responsible for comforting his subordinates. As for the other divisions, it will depend on Your Highness." He Zhiqiu slowly analyzed the power of the enemy and us, "As long as Huangfu Tiancheng breaks his strength, he will break the power of Huangfu Tiancheng.

I judged that the other two divisions should have been bribed by Li Wufeng. Zhu Jian had some connections with His Highness and Western Xinjiang, and it was difficult to communicate. However, His Highness clearly supported His Highness to ascend the throne to the new emperor. I think Zhu Jian did not dare to act rashly. Wu Pengju was a fence-leader. He was very close to His Highness. Now it is difficult to determine who he would be loyal to in the end. However, the Western Xinjiang side also had contact with him. It is difficult to say whether he would collude with Li Wufeng. As for Kutaki and Maolan, both of Ma Yuanling's direct descendants, only obeying Ma Yuanling, their subordinates were also loyal to Ma Yuanling, and it was difficult to buy it, so it would be better to take Ma Yuanling into our hands."

"Old He, you know people but not your heart. Whether it is Huangfu Tiancheng, Zhu Jian, or Wu Pengju, although these three people are all loyal to each other on the surface, Li Wufeng is powerful now. It is hard to say whether these three people will all turn to Li Wufeng? You said that only Ma Yuansheng can command Kutaki and Maolan, but what if Ma Yuansheng cannot show up for a while? What will these two people behave? Will they obey the orders of the military headquarters?" Situ Yushuang shook her head lightly. She did not completely agree with the other party's opinion.
