Chapter 1082 How can you still be so calm?
The night is slightly cool and the light shines on the ground.
When Bai Mingwei saw Yuan Wu, Yuan Wu was sitting in front of the small table drinking tea.
Looking up and seeing Bai Mingwei, he was slightly surprised: "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Mingwei, if you take the initiative to come to me, there must be something important."
Bai Mingwei sat across from Yuan Wu, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup.
She moved her eyes to the extra wooden box on the shelf and said with a smile: "That wooden box is very beautiful."
Yuan Wu put down his teacup and looked in the direction of Bai Mingwei's gaze.
He didn't hide it: "It looks better inside, it's all banknotes."
Bai Ming held the tea cup slightly but did not drink it: "So, Qin Fengye brought you the banknote?"
Yuan Wu answered truthfully: "That's natural, he doesn't dare not give it."
Bai Ming smiled slightly: "Sure enough, evil people will be punished by evil people. I didn't expect that Grand Master Qin, who has all the power in the world and covers the sky with one hand, can only grovel in front of Master Yuan."
Yuan Wu raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this thanks to you Mingwei? If you hadn't done this drink deal, he wouldn't have to pay this money, right?"
Bai Mingwei retorted: "I didn't ask Mr. Yuan to open his mouth and directly touch Qin Fengye's foundation."
"Foundation?" Yuan Wu shook his head, "A mere 100 million taels is just a drop in the bucket for him. You underestimate him."
Bai Mingwei suddenly realized: "Oh, it turns out you took as much as 100 million taels."
Yuan Wuyi was startled, and then realized that he had been tricked.
At the end, he smiled and said: "Sooner or later we will become husband and wife. What secrets can there be between husband and wife?"
Bai Ming lowered his eyelids slightly, but there was a smile on his lips: "Then tell me, when did you get in touch with Qin Fengye?"
Yuan Wu touched his chin: "So that's why you came to me."
Bai Ming smiled and said nothing.
Yuan Wu continued: "About, six years ago."
Bai Mingwei's eyes flashed: "So, you guys need to get on the line first, and then Li Xianzhao will be promoted to general to guard the northern border."
Yuan Wu nodded: "At that time, Prime Minister Bai was in the south providing disaster relief. By the time he returned to the court, Li Xianzhao's appointment document had already been issued."
"After Li Xianzhao took office, he secretly sold private salt to Beiyan. Over the past few years, he has made a lot of profits."
"Later, someone asked us to help contain Northern Xinjiang on the condition of several salt mines in Yinshan Mountain. But then you took back the five cities, so the deal naturally couldn't be concluded."
Bai Mingwei looked directly into Yuan Wu's eyes: "Is there anyone there?"
Yuan Wu pretended to be mysterious: "Yes, there is someone."
There is no need to point this person out, both of them understand it tacitly.
Bai Mingwei said: "There must be some reason why you chose to invade the south last year."
Yuan Wu chuckled: "What could be the reason? It's just because your grandfather fell seriously ill at the beginning of last year, which gave those people hope and knew that it was the time to overthrow your grandfather."
"Tell me, why were there so many generals in the Dongling court at that time, but no one took command and went north?"
"If no one is running it, how can it be your father, uncle and brother's turn to go to the battlefield? So the whole bureau is aimed at Prime Minister Bai."
"Kill people and punish the heart. Sure enough, Bai Xiang completely withdrew from the center of power due to the death of your father, uncle and brother."
After a pause, Yuan Wu continued:
"Bei Yan will not be unaware of the importance of Bai Xiang to Dongling. As long as Bai Xiang is 20 years younger, Bei Yan will not be willing to destroy him in this way."
"So, when the news came, Beiyan made a decisive decision and sent 15 troops to quickly attack the city."
"With Li Xianzhao's cooperation inside and outside, it would be effortless to win those five cities. If your grandfather had no conscience at the time, their treacherous plot would not succeed."
Bai Mingwei said: "I'm very curious. They only proposed such a simple condition as letting Beiyan contain Northern Xinjiang? This doesn't seem worth trading several cities and so many salt mines."
Yuan Wu suddenly looked at her: "You really don't know anything?"
Bai Ming smiled and said, "What should I know?"
Yuan Wu sighed: "Forget it, it doesn't matter if I tell you. We are going to become a family anyway, so there is no need to hide it from you."
Bai Ming nodded slightly: "I'm all ears."
Yuan Wu said: "Actually, it's nothing, just a little trick. Before your queen became the crown prince, she had a good relationship. After marrying Emperor Yuan Zhen, who was still the crown prince, she gave birth to Liu Yu soon after."
Bai Mingwei frowned slightly: "The prince was indeed born prematurely in August. Everyone knows this." Yuan Wu shrugged: "Yes, everyone knows. If Liu Yu is not the biological child of Emperor Yuan Zhen, according to Yuan With Emperor Zhen’s temperament, how could he be allowed to live until now?”
Bai Ming raised the corners of his lips slightly: "But the person involved doesn't believe it."
Yuan Wu said calmly: "We just revealed the news that his mother has an old lover to Liu Yu, and asked people to pretend to be your grandfather's subordinates to investigate the queen's old lover."
"So Liu Yu was fooled. Because he was too afraid of losing everything he had, he played a game of chess against your grandfather."
"According to his plan, after your grandfather was overthrown, Beiyan helped him contain Northern Xinjiang, and he took the opportunity to kill his father and usurp the throne."
"No!" Bai Mingwei immediately interrupted Yuan Wu, "The prince has not made any preparations for usurping the throne, so the authenticity of this matter remains to be discussed."
Yuan Wu smiled: "Ming Wei is indeed very smart. The matter of killing his father and usurping the throne is indeed just my personal speculation. Naturally, he will not tell us what he wants to do."
"But please listen to my analysis and see if it makes sense. If the war in Northern Xinjiang is stalemate and Beiyan continues to attack Liangcheng, the pass that Huo Shixun is guarding will be in danger."
"Then Dongling faces external worries. And Qin Fengye took the opportunity to eliminate dissidents after your grandfather's death, causing chaos in the court. Then Dongling faces internal worries."
"Amid internal and external troubles, as long as Emperor Yuan Zhen dies, your grandfather will no longer have the power to influence the government and the opposition, and the possibility of the crown prince ascending the throne is basically absolute."
Bai Mingwei said: "I understand what you mean. If Emperor Yuan Zhen dies suddenly, my grandfather loses his influence, and amid internal and external troubles, no one will have the energy to thoroughly investigate the truth."
"Qin Fengye has one hand covering the sky, so it is not difficult to support the crown prince's ascension to the throne. Even if there is no large-scale force to force the throne, the throne will fall into Liu Yu's hands."
Yuan Wu took over the words: "It's a pity that you nipped his plan in the bud with one sword."
Bai Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "You mean Qin Huan?!"
Yuan Wu nodded: "Qin Huan, as the commander of the Jinwu Guard and a member of the Qin family, grew up with Liu Yu. Isn't this an obvious thing?"
Bai Ming smiled: "Yes, with Qin Huan's help, Emperor Yuan Zhen can die suddenly."
Yuan Wu also laughed: "Yes, but what a coincidence, you killed him. The new commander of the Jinwu Guards cannot gain the trust of Emperor Yuan Zhen like Qin Huan."
Bai Ming said slightly: "You are so honest."
Yuan Wu didn't take it seriously: "I believe you should have connected these things in your mind. I'm just trying to confirm your conjecture."
Bai Mingwei raised his glass: "Replace wine with tea, thank you Mr. Yuan for telling the truth."
Yuan Wu raised the teacup and smiled meaningfully: "Liu Yu's heart is much darker than Qin Fengye's. All in all, you have to be careful."
Bai Mingwei drank all the tea and fell into deep thought.
If what Yuan Wu said is true, before she entered the palace to receive her grandfather, the prince and Chong Yuan made a deal, allowing her to meet her grandfather.
This is a bit unreasonable. The prince should not have helped her at that time.
There must be something she doesn't know about in the middle.
There is such a possibility——
That was the palace maid who helped her, but she was actually from Chongyuan.
But because he was worried that she would not accept the kindness, he used the name of the prince so that she would not be suspicious.
There is another possibility - that is, when Prince Liu Yu was sure of victory, he sold a favor to the Bai family to eliminate his own suspicion.
After thinking about it, the second guess is more likely.
This Liu Yu is worthy of being the leader among hypocrites.
With such a disguise, it’s no wonder that my grandfather, who had been in court for so many years, didn’t see through his wolfish ambitions.
Seeing her expression, Yuan Wu narrowed his eyes: "My fiancée, what are you thinking about?"
Bai Mingwei stood up: "Nothing, I just thought this conversation was very pleasant."
Yuan Wu's eyes flashed: "I'm really curious about what kind of heart you have. The monarch you are loyal to and the future monarch are so ignorant and unprincipled, why can you still be so calm?"
Bai Ming spoke softly: "Because my allegiance has never been to them, but to the country and people of Dongling."
After saying that, Bai Ming slightly turned around and left.
Yuan Wu looked at her back and murmured: "I don't care, so you won't be disappointed?"
"But I know what you care about, and I also know your bottom line. Sooner or later, you belong to Beiyan and to me. Until the proverb comes true..."
