After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

Although the direction of the clues is already very clear, Jiang Xue Ning is still prepared to try it out herself to play the game.

She invited Mu Furong to her house for a talk, citing problems with the military account books.

"Do you think she will come?" Jiang Li asked.

"She will come. She probably didn't expect us to guess it was her so quickly." Jiang Xue Ning said firmly, "At this critical moment, in order not to arouse suspicion, she will come."

Especially since she made the appointment in the name of business, it would seem abnormal if I didn't come.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, Mu Furong arrived as promised. She was dressed in green and still looked as elegant as a chrysanthemum.

"Qinghe, serve tea to Deputy Commander Mu."

Mu Furong took a sip and said calmly, "The prince summoned me here. Is there something wrong with the account book?"

Jiang Xue Ning said calmly, "There are indeed some problems with the account book. I will discuss the details with you later."

Jiang Li held the problematic account book and discussed it with her, and the discussion lasted for an hour or two.

After listening for a while, she walked out and ordered Wu Jin, "Take your men to keep an eye on her house, especially her brother Mu Qianmo. If anyone dares to move without permission, kill him on the spot."

It is normal to pay the price of bloodshed if you want to seize power. This is just the beginning.

By the time we finished discussing the problems in the account books, it was already evening.

Jiang Xue Ning's eyes swept across her slightly tired face, "You've worked hard today, stay and have dinner before leaving."

She smiled faintly and shook her head to refuse, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but I still have military affairs to deal with, so I won't eat."

Jiang Xue Ning walked over and sat down, then continued, "Speaking of military affairs, I just happen to have something to discuss with you."

She was alert in an instant, "What's going on?"

"Something happened in Qingzhou, and we need troops. I plan to transfer all the 40,000 Phoenix Army soldiers left in Xiangchu." She said solemnly, "All 40,000 troops will set out immediately and march towards Qingzhou."

Mu Furong's expression changed slightly, and she stood up instantly, "I object!"

She wasn't angry either, she just looked at her calmly, "Reason?"

"These 40,000 troops were specially left behind by Commander Fang to protect Xiang and Chu." Mu Furong quickly analyzed calmly, "The army is now fighting in the northwest, and these 40,000 troops must not be moved. If other forces take advantage of the situation and move in, Xiang and Chu will be in danger."

She half-closed her eyes and said calmly, "The imperial court has sent troops to Taiyuan. Yandi is quite far away from here. Deputy Commander Mu, please tell me, where is the danger in Xiangchu?"

Mu Furong always felt that there was something else behind her words, but it was impossible for her to know that matter so quickly.

"In short, for the safety of Hunan and Chu, and also to be on the safe side, I do not agree to transfer these 40,000 troops away from Hunan and Chu."

"Qingzhou is in danger, these 40,000 soldiers must go." Jiang Xue Ning said firmly, "As for Xiangchu's safety, the king has his own plans in mind."

Mu Furong's expression was a little stiff. I didn't expect her to be so strong. She lowered her eyes and said coldly, "I don't know whether Qingzhou is in danger, but my responsibility is to protect Xiangchu."

"So you're going to disobey orders?"

Mu Furong said righteously, "I'm sorry I can't obey your command."

"Very good, Deputy Commander Mu is indeed unique." Jiang Xue Ning was so angry that she laughed, "Even if Fang Li came, he wouldn't dare to speak like this in front of me."

Mu Furong lowered her eyes and said nothing. These 40,000 soldiers were hers alone, and they were her trusted followers. Compared with Jiang Xue Ning, the King of Xiangchu who suddenly appeared, they certainly obeyed her more and listened to her more.

As expected, Jiang Xue Ning said softly, "I'll give you one more chance. Find a reason that can convince me."

"Your Highness wants to transfer them to Qingzhou, which is unreasonable in the first place. I don't agree with it."

"I am just informing you. I don't need your consent."

She took out the Phoenix Token. With the token in hand, all Phoenix troops had to obey her orders.

Mu Furong couldn't help but look cold, "Your Majesty, are you going to do it your own way?"

She said with a half-smile, "Look at the way Deputy Commander Mu is protecting his son. Are these soldiers really Xiangchu's soldiers? I have my doubts now."

Having said that, Mu Furong finally realized that something was wrong. "Your Majesty's intention to mobilize troops was fake, but your dissatisfaction with me was real."

"No, you are wrong." Jiang Xue Ning slammed the token on the table. "It is true that I want to mobilize troops, and it is also true that I am dissatisfied with you."

Seeing her frosty face, Mu Furong felt uneasy, but she forced herself to say, "I did something wrong and made Your Highness angry. If you are angry, just come to me. It is a taboo to mobilize troops impulsively. I hope Your Highness will think twice."

Jiang Xuening leaned back in her chair, her brows slightly raised, "Don't think twice, I have to mobilize this army. If something really goes wrong, I will be responsible. But if the military order cannot mobilize these soldiers, do you think Deputy Commander Mu can still keep them?"

Mu Furong couldn't hold it anymore. She felt a chill in her heart and her expression turned cold. "If I can't transfer you, it just means that the transfer order is unreasonable."

“Hahahaha… Deputy Commander Mu, when you say that, do you think I’m a fool?”

Mu Furong closed her eyes and forced herself to calm down. "Since the prince has made a decision, I will take my leave now."

She turned around and was about to leave when the door creaked shut.

"Is Deputy Commander Mu in a hurry to inform the enemy, or to gather 40,000 troops?"

Mu Furong turned her head sharply and looked at her sharply, "You know everything, don't you?"

Jiang Xue Ning continued to play dumb, "Know what? What should I know?"

Although she didn't admit it, Mu Furong was sure that she already knew it. Otherwise, she wouldn't suddenly target her or mobilize troops.

Everything happened unexpectedly, and she said unwillingly, "Now that things have come to this, Your Majesty, why do you have to play dumb? You have to make me lose clearly."

In fact, she didn't lose. As long as she didn't return on time, the military camp would definitely receive the news and know that something had happened to her.

Naturally, she would join forces with Gu Hanzhou to muddy the waters in Xiangchu. It's a pity that she was exposed too early, otherwise her layout could be more perfect.

"As expected of a man who has done great things, he is still so calm even now."

Mu Furong sneered, "Will the prince let me go if I cry bitterly?"

Jiang Xuening smiled and delivered a fatal blow, "You probably don't know, but the last person Feng Jianyi saw before he left Xiangchu was me."

She swayed and said with a pale face, "He was the one who betrayed me?"

"Not really. I threatened him. He was probably discouraged, so he gave me some half-hearted hints."

Mu Furong felt a dull pain in her heart. She never expected that she would lose here.

Gu Tangli pushed the door open and came in. "The camellia jade hairpin that Miss Mu wore when she came to the banquet that night was very beautiful."

Mu Furong didn't understand what was going on. She had many jade hairpins, and the one she wore that day was given to her by her dressing maid.

"That jade hairpin is made of the unique water ice jade of Mobei."
