in the courtyard.
After finalizing the details of the expedition against the White Lotus.
Tang Cai'er was about to get up and say goodbye, planning to go directly to Xingqing Mansion to meet Li Wanrou.
As for Xu Shu, he will set out tomorrow.
But after getting up and saying goodbye.
Tang Cai'er suddenly thought of something and bowed to Jiang Xuan, saying, "Your Majesty, when His Majesty came, he asked me to bring you a piece of news about Ning He."
"Ning He?"
Jiang Xuan frowned when he heard this.
Puzzled, "What news?"
“Your Majesty said that Miss Ninghe might encounter an assassination attempt during this period, and the attacker is at least a Tianxiang realm warrior, and there will be more than one person, at least three Tianxiang realm masters.” Tang Caier said with a serious look on her pretty face.
Although she didn't know.
Where did the news about His Majesty come from?
But judging from the serious look on your Majesty's face, this matter should not be false.
but
I don't know if King Zhenbei will believe it.
However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at her with a gaze that was almost scrutinizing: "This king knows."
"Farewell."
Tang Caier felt uncomfortable being stared at.
He felt a chill on his back, and quickly bowed and left as if escaping.
in the courtyard.
Looking at Tang Caier's departing back.
Jiang Xuan frowned and said in a deep voice: "Yuanzhi, who else knows about this?"
"Go back to your lord."
Xu Shu also frowned at this moment.
His eyes sank slightly as he said, "For now, the only ones who know about this are me and the prince, Miss Qing'er. The news has not been passed on yet, and even Zhao Chuanhe doesn't know about it."
"Is this so"
Jiang Xuan narrowed his eyes after hearing this.
He murmured, "So, the three Heavenly Realms that the Empress mentioned were not arranged by me?"
In the past few days.
The news that Ning He was his disciple spread quickly under the manipulation of someone with ulterior motives. Then Zhao Chuanhe went there and conquered the Tianjian Sect, the number one sword sect in the world.
Jiang Xuan set up a trap.
He planned to have the people of Tianjian Sect to "assassinate" Ning He, "seriously injure" him, and then withdraw Ning He from Chongli Prefecture back to Chang'an, allowing Prince Jin to take advantage of the situation to capture Chongli Prefecture.
The purpose is simple.
Just to allow the Tianjian Sect to gain the trust of the Wei Dynasty in a very short period of time.
As for whether the news would leak out.
Jiang Xuan had no doubt about this.
After all, the only people who know about this are myself, Xu Shu and Qing'er.
No one will leak this news.
"Who do you think it could be?" Jiang Xuan thought about it and his expression relaxed.
Xu Shu shook his head upon hearing this: "Nowadays, more and more people are joining the game. With just this little information, it is difficult for me to guess who will make the move."
It has been less than a month since the empress ascended the throne.
The situation in the Dawu Dynasty has long been undercurrent and turbulent, with many entrants into the game. It can be said that everyone's attention in the world is now focused on the Dawu Dynasty.
There will be more and more people who want to bring chaos to the Dawu Dynasty.
"After this is over, let Yu Qingzhi go over there." Jiang Xuan said, and then he put this matter aside for the time being. He said to Xu Shu, "Ask Pei Kan to speed up the process and find out as soon as possible what is behind the empress.
After Xu Shu agreed.
Jiang Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "By the way, find out the man with ulterior motives. Let Heibingtai decide whether he is dead or alive. If he is useful, keep him alive and bring him to see me." "Yes."
The person mentioned by the prince.
Xu Shu naturally knew who it was.
Simultaneously.
Xingqing Prefecture, the palace of Prince Wu.
The Prince of Wu's Palace today.
Someone came that King Wu was not expecting.
A woman, a woman as gentle as water, a woman who would be as if nothing unexpected happened.
A woman I will never have anything to do with in my life.
"By the Emperor of Heaven,
He said: "King Wu, from now on, lead an army of 100,000 and wait for orders. Cooperate with Huwei Hou Xu Chu, and Jinyiwei Commander Ruan Surong and Ling Yan'er. In three days, we will go out to fight against the remnants of the White Lotus Sect hiding in Yangwu Town. You are not allowed to disobey orders. This is my order."
In the inner courtyard of the Prince of Wu's Palace, the Prince of Wu knelt on the ground to receive the imperial edict.
After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, he was stunned at first, and then his face changed drastically.
The White Lotus Sect was discovered?
Furthermore, it was not just the Empress who knew about the existence of the White Lotus Sect in Xingqing Prefecture.
Does the one in the North also know about this?
Doesn't that mean that his conspiracy with the White Lotus Sect might have been exposed?
"hiss"
The thought that this matter had already been known by the one in the North made me feel uncomfortable.
The King of Wu felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Big beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. His face was pale and his heart was filled with fear. He knelt on the ground for a long time without coming to his senses.
"King Wu, please accept the order." Until Zhao Wanrou's gentle voice sounded.
The King of Wu was awakened by this, and he forced himself to suppress his fear and stood up without changing his expression.
He took the imperial edict respectfully: "I accept your order."
"There is no time to lose. Please ask King Wu to mobilize the troops as soon as possible."
Seeing the King Wu with a rather unhappy expression, Zhao Wanrou glanced at him and said in a calm tone, but with a warning and threat: "Also, His Majesty, please tell the King Wu to behave himself during this period and not do anything that would displease His Majesty."
"Farewell."
After saying this, he did not wait for the King of Wu to speak.
Zhao Wanrou snorted lightly, turned around and left the palace, leaving King Wu alone.
He stood in the yard with a sullen face and sinister eyes.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it."
"The people of the White Lotus Sect are indeed a bunch of trash. I shouldn't have chosen to cooperate with them in the first place. They are trash, all of them." After King Wu cursed with a gloomy face, he took a deep breath.
He murmured with a gloomy face: "Since we have been discovered, why did the Empress and that person not intend to attack me, but instead asked me to mobilize troops to assist them in conquering the White Lotus Sect?"
After Zhao Wanrou's previous warning.
King Wu was certain that his conspiracy with the White Lotus Sect must have been exposed.
Otherwise the empress wouldn't.
Let this woman bring this message to yourself.
"So the Empress's purpose this time is only to destroy the White Lotus Sect, and not to touch me?" King Wu said, frowning tightly, unable to understand for a moment.
What is the meaning of the empress doing this?
If it were me.
I'm afraid he won't be able to control himself and will deal with me, the vassal king, as well.
Of course, he was not afraid of the empress.
What he feared.
It was the one from the North. After all, the imperial edict in his hand clearly stated it.
This expedition was to suppress the White Lotus Sect.
The Xianzhen Camp under Xu Chu's command will also take action.
"No wonder Ruan Surong and the other two women appeared in Zhongkang's camp that day." Recalling the day when he went to look for Zhongkang and Ruan Surong and the other two women happened to be there, King Wu felt a chill in his heart again.
Shocked, "The Empress knew about this before then?"
