Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

Su Muying heard this and smiled softly: "You are blaming me."

"I dare not." Wen Qing still spoke in a low voice, without showing any emotion.

Su Muying looked at him carefully for a moment, then turned her head away. "I didn't intend to involve you in the previous incident. If the fake Wen Qing stabbed Gu Xu to death, it would only implicate Qin Zhaoning, and you, under my arrangement, would just change your identity. Do you blame me for this?"

"How could that be? Wen Qing has been favored by the Pavilion Master since he was young, so he dare not forget his roots." Wen Qing said gently, "Is it because of these things in Luoyang that you summoned me back this time?"

Su Muying asked, "The emperor suddenly became seriously ill. Was it your doing?"

"I dare not act rashly without the order of the Pavilion Master." Wen Qing denied.

Su Muying stared at him for a long while.

"Although the initial action did not achieve the original purpose, it was a coincidence. Qin Zhaoning and Qin Zhaochen are no longer a threat." Su Muying said, "Now things have changed. You don't need to watch over the affairs of King Yin in Huaizhong Prefecture. Come back to Luoyang."

"Yes, sir." Wen Qing said.

From the beginning to the end, the plan of the Su family to hide their weaknesses and develop their power in secret was proposed by Wen Qing alone. Since Su Muying adopted this proposal, he did not let him interfere in the core part. Now that he encountered an unexpected change, Su Muying had no other choice but to think of him, a person wandering on the edge.

This is the day Wen Qing has been waiting for.

"These are the situations in Luoyang. After you have read them, tell me what we should do now." Su Muying pointed to a pile of documents on the table.

Wen Qing nodded and sat down at the table to look at it carefully.

He was just pretending to be ignorant on the surface, but in fact, the movements in Luoyang were all under his control.

Judging from these documents... Su Muying really had no other options. He provided the truth without hiding anything, which was inconsistent with his usual cunning and suspicious style.

Wen Qing's lips curved slightly.

Su Muying didn't see his expression and said, "Now most of the descendants of the Su family have been abducted into the palace. The emperor probably wants to use them to contain me. What do you think we should do?"

Wen Qing said: "The palace is heavily guarded. It is not easy to rescue people. We don't have any useful connections in the palace."

"That's true."

"The emperor will not attack the Su family for no reason. On the surface, this matter is to promote the Su family, but I and you know very well that the emperor will not do such a drastic thing, so..."

Su Muying said: "Yes, there is only one explanation, the emperor is going to take action against my Su family."

"Now is the time when he and the crown prince are changing power, and there are rumors about a King Yin. It is not wise to take action against the Su family at this time." Wen Qing analyzed, "Besides, the Su family has always been law-abiding. According to my previous plan, they are lying in wait. The emperor should at least not take action now."

Su Muying nodded.

"Therefore, the emperor is so eager to take action... There is only one explanation. He has the handle on the Su family, and he firmly believes that you have the ambition to kill the emperor and seize the throne." Wen Qing said.

Su Muying's face changed.

"Could it be Qin Zhaoyue..." he guessed, "Even though we acted very quickly in the previous incident of wiping out the Hu family, there is no guarantee that there are any clues that were not dealt with cleanly in the Hu family."

Wen Qing shook his head: "The matter of the dungeon is really incredible. It can be said that this is the starting point for prying out all our flaws... Where did the information leak from? Do you have any guesses?"

Su Muying said: "Not many people know about the existence of Anhuai Manor, but there is only one person who has not reported back yet..."

"Who is it?" Wen Qing asked.

He and Su Muying were superiors and subordinates, and he was not aware of many of Su Muying's plots, such as the dungeon and the things that happened to Gu Shen's family.

Su Muying is not a stupid person.

Wen Qing narrowed her eyes slightly.

He had long felt that Gu Xu's actions were completely beyond what he should have done. The dead Gu Dashi was also smart and perceptive, which occasionally surprised him. He could make Su Muying suffer such a big loss, and he also dug out a dungeon that he didn't even know about...

Could it be Gu Xu who did it?

Su Muying said: "You don't have to pursue these, I have my own plans."

Wen Qing thought, that was almost certain.

That's what he did.

"That's fine." Wen Qing continued, "No matter who leaked the news, the existence of the dungeon may have reminded Qin Zhaoyue and others that this place is inextricably linked to the Su family."

Su Muying looked very unhappy. Ever since Gu Dashi fell off the cliff and died, and Gu Xu returned from the south, his alliance with the prince has become stronger. The people in the dungeon naturally couldn't explain anything, but the guards of An Huai Manor might be able to get some information from them.

Did Gu Xu tell Qin Zhaoyue?

His spy Wu Hurricane has lost contact, but this man is extremely tight-lipped. He is an undercover agent carefully selected by him and his identity is impeccable. How could he tell Gu Xu the location of the dungeon so easily?

Su Muying was puzzled.

"However, the officials imprisoned in the dungeon can only prove that the owner behind Anhuai Manor manipulated official promotions and played power games. It cannot directly prove that the person behind the scenes intended to usurp the throne. For this reason alone, the emperor should not be so eager to take action." Wen Qing said.

Su Muying listened, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he asked, "Wen Qing, in your opinion, is the alliance between Gu Xu and Qin Zhaoyue stable?"

Wen Qing said: "It's hard to say. But if the marriage with Jing is concluded, it will probably be a done deal."

Su Muying frowned.

Wen Qing felt that he was distracted, but he didn't care and continued his analysis: "The emperor only placed the younger generation of the Su family under house arrest and did not take direct action against you. There may be two reasons for this."

"First, the emperor knows that you are planning to do something, but he doesn't know how many cards you have, so he didn't act rashly. Second, the emperor has already figured out the details of the Su family and is trying to cut off the source of the trouble. He is afraid of alerting the enemy, so he is keeping his troops in place."

Su Muying frowned: "It's very likely."

"In short, the emperor was hesitant and did not act immediately, but this does not mean that he will not act." Wen Qing said: "You need to react quickly."

"Tell me." Su Muying said, "What should I do?"

"Check the forces in our hands to see which ones have been discovered by the emperor and secretly eliminate them." Wen Qing said, "At the same time, secretly gather the people we have, the battle may come soon."

"Do we have to fight to the death now?" Su Muying was a little reluctant.

"There is another way." Wen Qing said.

"any solution?"

"King Yin." Wen Qing raised his eyes and said.

Su Muying paused. He had understood Wen Qing's meaning. He hesitated for a few steps, and finally sat down slowly, his brows relaxed.
