"We must find the people in Fengxing Pavilion who belong to Qiu Jing as soon as possible." Meng Qi said with a calm face.

To deal with Qiu Si, it is impossible to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot. Qiu Si's successor may be Cheng Jingchuan. Cheng Jingchuan is not like a lunatic. He has no bad deeds at present. If he kills people to destroy Qiu Si's plan, what is the difference between it and the murderer who kills you wantonly with martial arts?

The most important thing is that Cheng Jingchuan may be just a trick, and the successor has another person.

"clang--"

The long bells echoed within the palace walls.

The silence of the night suddenly broke, and lights were lit from all directions, and chaotic voices came at the same time.

The entire palace, no, the entire Ningtai City woke up in the bell.

"He really ordered someone to kill King Ning." Mo Li said with headache.

The death knell will ring when the emperor dies.

Although King Ning did not proclaim himself emperor, everything in Ningtai City was imitated by Taijing.

After the death bells sounded, many Buddhist temples in the city began to ring the bells one after another. Now even those who died of sleeping were awakened from their dreams.

The people were in panic. The powerful people who were staying in the arms of the singer got up in a panic and tidy up their clothes. Some people mourned and some were excited. Some people rushed to the son of Ning, who were optimistic about it. Ning Wang gave birth to too many sons, and it didn't matter whether they became weapons or not. Their mother and wife would naturally push them up.

Meng Qi stood on the eaves and looked up. Several torrents holding torches rushed towards the palace.

Although it is too far away to see clearly, the impatient attitude allows you to think of their extremely greedy faces.

Before the palace could hang a white banner, it would be dyed with blood.

Meng Qi recalled the several commanders of the imperial guards I saw today. They were not Qiu Si's people and had conflicts with each other. They probably had already stood in the team.

In addition, today when they went to the people to arrest doctors, there must be "smart people" who think they understand it. In fact, the one who is really critically ill is King Ning. As soon as the death knell rang, they couldn't wait to rush to the palace and Prince Ning's son's mansion, ready to support the people on their side to ascend the throne.

Even the coup was in a palace, it was just a chaotic period after the death of the old king.

However, King Ning was killed by Mr. Qiu's men. They did not even block the news and allowed the powerful and noble clans to "move". They were afraid that someone would not have any information, so they rang the death knell at night.

Mo Li didn't know the normal procedures after the emperor passed away, so Meng Qi was different.

If a country has no emperor, it will be in chaos.

The emperor is a human being, not a emperor. He will be in chaos because no one can sit in that position, and there are too many people who have bad ideas. Compared with the desperate people, most people with wealth and status will think twice before doing it.

After the emperor dies, the closest servants and the queen will immediately recruit the prime minister of the cabinet, or support the ministers on their side, and discuss the matter behind the emperor. If there is no accident, the prince or eldest son, the legitimate son will immediately assuming the throne, mobilize the imperial guards, and recover the camps in the suburbs of the capital. Only after all preparations are made will the news be announced and the death knives will be sounded.

At that time, the Buddhist temples and temples inside and outside the city were also prepared early. They responded with time, and they would not have been solemn and solemn as they are now.

"Something is wrong..."

As soon as Meng Qi finished speaking, he saw a part of the torches outside extinguished.

It seemed that one of the complete sets of porcelain plates filled with snacks suddenly disappeared, which was particularly eye-catching.

Next, it was like an agreement, and those aggressive teams disappeared one by one.

——Of course it did not really disappear, it was just that the torch was extinguished, no longer making noises, and blending into the darkness.

There was no strong smell of blood in the wind, nor was there any fighting and shouting.

Meng Qi frowned because if it were him, he would have to do this at most.

Because what is needed at present is not a chaos, but a secret to the light and take over Ningtai City.

Qiu Si is not an important official of King Ning. According to what Bao Guanyong said, Qiu Siming is just a sixth-rank official and does miscellaneous work in the Ministry of Personnel. King Ning doesn't even know this person. Since he is not a powerful minister, he cannot rely on his prestige to suppress the situation. If he wants to control everything in secret, he naturally takes action against military power.

Even if they are not Qiu Si's men, their deputy will definitely be.

With intentional calculations and unintentionality, plus the "King Ning's order", the soldiers are not interested in loyalty, as long as the familiar Shangguan promises that they have food and money to take.

As for the private soldiers raised by the powerful aristocratic families, it is difficult for them to survive this night...

Even if Meng Qi gave birth to three heads and six arms, he could not rush out of the palace to stop so many changes that happened in Ningtai City tonight. Besides, he was not relieved that Mo Li stayed here alone.

Meng Qi jumped off the roof and helped Mo Li into a quieter house.

The waterside pavilion was air-flowing. When Meng Qi brushed his sleeves, the rolled-up curtain swept the dust on the table, chairs, beds and beds.

When Meng Qi took Mo Li away, he did not forget the vine box. He put the box on a short table and covered the carved door.

"I'll go to the Imperial Medical Office to find some herbs for the doctor?" Meng Qi tried to ask.

Mo Li shook his head. He had basically recovered. Now the only thing that caused the trouble is the sequelae of the antheric properties of the yam gout.

Just lie on for a while.

Mo Li listened to the faint crying in the distance, which was made by the palace servants.

"It's okay, no one will come in from outside." Meng Qi told his speculation about the torch that disappeared outside the palace wall.

Mo Li asked thoughtfully: "Is this also planned by Qiu Si?"

"On the top ten, he would throw away all those who felt that the trouble was inappropriate and could not be used, and then let the "wise ruler" succeed to the throne and act hard to govern, and naturally put up the banner of restoring Chu. In this way, he could not massacre like Lu Zhang. He needed to have the blood of the Li family of the Chu Dynasty as a puppet, nor could he kill all the sons of Ning Wang. The in-laws of the aristocratic clan, and anyone could reach relatives with others. There were aristocratic clans behind the descendants of Ning Wang. If they were to quickly clear Ning Tai City and scattered their families and exterminated their clans, the turmoil would affect three to five years later. The mighty king could not suppress them at all. Besides, the uprising was about to rise, and Ning Tai was uneasy and would only delay major events..."

Meng Qi suppressed his doubts and did not dare to say anything to death.

——This is the normal way, but the madman's thinking is unpredictable.

Who knows what amazing actions Qiu Si did?

After all, in Qiu Si's plan, "Mr. Qiu" is dead now.

***

The fragrance of wine is everywhere, refreshing the heart.

Qiu Si changed the teacup to a wine glass and sighed softly: "It is worthy of being the peach blossom wine that is popular in Taijing."

The pavilion is located on a high place and you can see the chaos in the nearby palaces.

The crying sounds, the figures reflected on the walls when they were panic and running, and the fires and screams in the distance seemed to fall into a nightmare.

Some of the eunuchs around King Ning were loyal to King Ning, some of them collected money from the powerful families, and more of them took money in their pockets. When they hurriedly ordered the eunuchs to spread news to the outside world to make a bright future, they never expected that the palace would be in chaos.

It was so fast that it was caught off guard.

It was almost time for them to clean up the fine and soft things, and they didn't have time to find a safe place to hide, the wolf-like imperial guards came.

All palaces were surrounded and were taken down on the spot without authorization.

Those young prisoners with a very handsome face, the eunuchs scolded with a dark face, and were immediately slapped by several slaps in the face. People who were used to being arrogant and bully wanted to shout, but found that the guards coming were all innocent, and they might have seen some, but in the past, the commanders could not even see a shadow.

The concubines of King Ning hurried in the palace where they lived, listening tremblingly to the outside.

They had no support in this incident and could only beg for a way out with tears, even if they were sent to a temple to recite the Buddha's name.

The descendants of King Ning were dissatisfied with no expression, and their ambitions were gradually eroded by the predicament in front of them.

News outside the palace was heard continuously, and anyone could hear it. The private soldiers of the Wang family broke into the Zhao family, and the Qian family was killed outside the palace gate... Each one was full of murderous intent and blood flowed into a river, making people want to faint.

It seemed as if the next moment, the soldiers would enter the palace and chop and kill them at will.

The old story of Emperor Lu Zhang of Qi slaughtering Taijing is mentioned from time to time in the Chu Palace. When everyone thinks of it, their souls are scared away.

"Haha, the name of the butcher is really good." Qiu Si sat in the pavilion, looking at the chaos far and near, and was very satisfied with stroking his beard.

Cheng Jingchuan stood beside him, listening quietly to Mr. Qiu's teachings.

All the things that come into the palace are fake news, which is a deliberate effect.

"The wise men praised the method of fooling the people. Later emperors were afraid that slaves and servants would know too much, and even did not allow the eunuchs and palace maids to read. They asked me to say that there was no need. Fools were not afraid, just like livestock, they had to show their flesh and blood in front of him, and they would be as strict as pigs and dogs. Only then would they be obedient and obedient. However, people who are skilled in literacy and knowledgeable but not smart enough, you don't even have to bring a knife with them, so they can make them timid and frightened. How easy it is."

"Sir, this is not appropriate." Cheng Jingchuan whispered, "If there is a genius among the servants who is like gold and jade mixed with sand and gravel, and is caught by this, will it become a variable in the future?"

Cheng Jingchuan's words sounded quite extraordinary to others. Slaves are slaves, destined to be humble and lack moral character. Even if they turn over, they are still treacherous people. Where did the genius come from?

Qiu Si disagreed and smiled and said, "Isn't it better to be able to make a genius? If a great scholar of aristocratic family and aristocratic students, they can still make a breakthrough without self-support. What is deeply rooted in these people's minds is to protect the family and protect the interests of the literati and officials, how can they be used for me?"

Cheng Jingchuan stopped talking.

Although he was from a good background, the Jingyuan Hou family had declined for many years and almost starved to death when he was young.

Not to mention the people from Fengxing Pavilion, whoever has a serious background is unwilling to take the imperial examination and martial arts examination and become a serious official?

There are talented people all over the world who are left in the countryside.

Qiu Si spent decades to build this huge force, because he had no idea of ​​the slightest view of the world and was good at controlling people's hearts. Of course, Qiu Si could not be "just" a madman if he could make a person like Cheng Jingchuan bow down and obey orders.

The grace of knowing the grace of meeting, the grace of supporting, and the grace of saving lives... Although it is old-fashioned, it works.

Xiliang native Ayanpuka believed that the third item was the most important, and Qiu Si was different. He always believed that the first item was the key.

Rescue people is just a matter of raising your hand, but because of appreciation, it is different to treat people as guests of honor.

So if Qiu Si is killed, it will be a terrible thing.

"After dawn, Ning Tai and I cannot be buried with you, even if their lives should not be eliminated." Qiu Si looked at the chaos in the distance and sighed slowly.

——He was not ready to commit suicide.

Not only Meng Qi guessed wrongly, but even Cheng Jingchuan was surprised.

Qiu Si seemed to be able to see through Cheng Jingchuan's thoughts and said, "Although fake death can solve many things, Jing'er is not stupid. If I really die, everything will come true. If I just fake death, I can't really control this girl."

Cheng Jingchuan lowered his head and said nothing.
