Chapter 152: Re-entering the Imperial City

Jiang Mu shook his sleeves, entered the carriage, and slowly entered Wutong Lane.

As for those assassins, Jiang Mu naturally handed over these final work to Qin Wanli. Who told him that these things were caused by his idiot from the Qin family?

In the courtyard, the luster of the lanterns scattered on the ground, and Jiang Mu entered the house with a cloak.

Soon, Qin Wanli came.

He gently placed his sword box full of the word "Sword God" on the table, sat in front of Jiang Mu, and asked, "Dean Jiang, what's going on?"

Jiang Mu sighed and said, "You should have seen everything about it just now at the entrance of the alley?"

"See it." Qin Wanli nodded.

There was no movement around Wutong Lane that could escape Qin Wanli's eyes. If Zhao Mingcheng hadn't taken action just now, Qin Wanli would have taken action. Not to mention the female assassins in the early realm, even a few assassins in the Heavenly Realm would not have encountered Jiang Mu at all.

Jiang Mu poured a cup of tea for Qin Wanli and said, "Those female assassins are from Princess Chengyang. They came to assassinate me and happened to be caught by Zhao Mingcheng."

Qin Wanli said, "I have asked just now. They said that the girl in Chengyang asked them to block you, and they didn't mean to assassinate you. It was the girl in Chengyang who was messing around and wanted to beat you up!"

"Ha," Jiang Mu chuckled, "For what reason, it doesn't matter anymore. Senior Qin, think about it, no matter what purpose they came to me, if Zhao Mingcheng was caught, they were all here to assassinate me, do you understand?"

Qin Wanli was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "What does it mean?"

Jiang Mu sighed and said helplessly: "What else can I mean? Chengyang, which you and Your Majesty love, was used. The situation just now, if I hadn't protected those maids, what would be the situation now?"

"Now it must be people from Jingzhao Mansion who arrested them for assassination and were imprisoned. No matter what their purpose was, the assassination became a fact, and behind them was Princess Chengyang."

"My current identity is the dean of Jixia Academy. If I was assassinated by Chengyang at this time, will the aristocratic family miss this opportunity to control Your Majesty? At that time, will Your Majesty continue to promote the reconstruction of Jixia Academy or protect Princess Chengyang?"

"The aristocratic family will use this to attack. Unless Your Majesty kills Princess Chengyang, the reconstruction of Jixia Academy will become a joke, a joke that Your Majesty slapped himself in the face. If Your Majesty forcibly protects Chengyang, what is the prestige and what is the point of rebuilding Jixia Academy? Moreover, even if Your Majesty kills Chengyang, the majesty will be greatly reduced. The princess will come out to oppose Your Majesty personally. How can you speak in the future? How can your Majesty's attitude be tough?"

"Old Senior Qin, just Cheng Yang's move just now almost destroyed all His Majesty's plans. His Majesty has been preparing to compete with the aristocratic families for ten years, but he was almost destroyed because of Princess Cheng Yang's move. He was killed in the womb without taking the first step!"

"You must know that now that Your Majesty is playing against aristocratic families, every step is like walking on thin ice, and if you are not careful, you will lose all the money."

When Jiang Mu showed up like this, Qin Wanli's face turned pale in an instant, and he also realized the seriousness of the matter.

Emperor Wei’s push to rebuild the Jixia Academy was the first step in the game with the aristocratic families. Cheng Yang’s move just now was equivalent to giving the handle of the royal family directly to the aristocratic family and letting the aristocratic family take care of it.

I'm afraid it would be meaningless even if it was planned for another ten years.

Playing with a family is a terrifying step by step. If you make a mistake or make a mistake, you will never be able to save it. This game of chess can only move forward, but you cannot retreat. Whoever takes a step back will advance ten steps and attack Huanglong.

Qin Wanli was scared for a moment and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's good that Dean Jiang, you react quickly!"

Jiang Mu took a sip of tea and said, "I react quickly, and it is inevitable that there will be times when I lose my hooves in front of the horse. If Princess Chengyang keeps making trouble, no matter how fast I react ten times, I will be unable to handle it!"

"What happened today is not a coincidence. Senior Qin, whether I was assassinated or challenged in the street today, it was actually caused by Princess Chengyang."

"Not many people know about the news that I left Wutong Lane, but today I was challenged by Yu Ziqi, Liang Guo, in public. He even considered when I left the palace and which path I took. This could not be a coincidence."

"In addition, Chengyang sent someone to block me. From their actions to the worship pavilion, the gap time in the middle will not exceed three breaths at most. But just as soon as Zhao Mingcheng appeared between these three breaths. Do you think this would be a coincidence?"

Qin Wanli stopped talking.

Although he is not a wise man, he is definitely not stupid. Jiang Mu can come up with such a little bit, so how can he still not know?

The only ones who can know the specific time and route of Jiang Mu's departure from the imperial city are the people in the imperial city, and Zhao Mingcheng can be so accurately calculated and satisfy these two situations at the same time, except Chengyang.

The last remaining heat left in a pot of hot tea.

Jiang Mu didn't mean to continue adding water.

Qin Wanli looked at the teacup with only half a pot left, stood up slowly, picked up the sword box, tied it to his back, and whispered: "Brother Jiang, I will enter the palace with you!"

Jiang Mu stood up, gently patted the ashes on his body, and took off the cloak from the shelf and covered it with it.

At this time, a mixed sound of footsteps sounded outside the door, and a eunuch's voice came: "Tell your Majesty the oral order, please invite Dean Jiang of Jixia Academy to enter the palace!"

Jiang Mu slowly opened the door, and a strong wind flew over. A team of large imperial guards were wearing bright guns to guard the yard, and a carriage was parked outside the door.

The chief supervisor of the big inner court who had met in the palace today stood respectfully outside the door without tongue and bowed, saying, "I have met the prince and the president Jiang."

Jiang Mu was educating and said, "I'm working hard."

"I dare not," Wushu said hurriedly: "This is the responsibility of the old slave."

In front of these two people, I dare not make a name for myself. One is the old prince who has to salute the emperor, and the other is the rising star of tomorrow who does not worship the emperor.

The emperor attached enough importance to it. Although he was just doing face, dozens of imperial guards led the way and gave Jiang Mu enough face.

Liang Chu followed Jiang Mu with Park Dao on his back, feeling a little embarrassed: "Director Jiang, look at this..."

Jiang Mu turned his head to look at Liang Chu and said, "Liang Chu, please stay. With Senior Qin, I don't have to worry about my safety."

Liang Chu bowed and retreated to the yard.

Soon, I arrived at the imperial study room of the palace again.

As soon as Jiang Mu and Qin Wanli entered the door, they saw Princess Chengyang kneeling on the ground. The Emperor Wei next to him looked ashen, the table was a little messy, and there was still ink on the ground that had not been wiped clean. It was obviously because they were furious just now.
