Chapter 59: Saving the General 2

He said: "The general's words do make some sense. After all, the new emperor's foundation is still shallow. Some of the officials in the court are supporters of the general, and the other part are supporters of the prime minister. However, the emperor is like this to the general, but he is so fond of the prime minister. It's a bit..."

Although Mu Ran didn't say all his words, they all knew what his expression meant.

Everyone thought that something was indeed wrong. The one who was in contact with the enemy might be the prime minister. However, they didn't know what the prime minister meant.

At this time, Wei Yuanyao returned to his prime minister's residence. A man in black suddenly appeared in front of him and said, "How come the prime minister has been the prime minister for too long and doesn't know his own identity? Is this matter the prime minister's idea?"

After hearing what the other party said, Wei Yuanyao said, "What can I mean? I think you should know who my heart belongs to. Now that your mission has failed, you are looking for trouble with me. Isn't it too much..."

After hearing Wei Yuanyao's words, the other party became even more excited and said, "What do you mean we will fail? This is not our problem at all. Didn't we agree not to support He Zhiqiu? How come the Prime Minister doesn't know the reason for our failure this time?"

Wei Yuanyao asked in confusion: "The court did not send troops to support He Zhiqiu this time, and the food and grass were also cut off.

How could we possibly support him? Besides, the new emperor hates He Zhiqiu so much, even if I wanted to support him, he probably wouldn't want to! Don't blame me for the failure."

Seeing that Wei Yuanyao didn't seem to be lying, the other party asked, "Since it's not someone from the court who is supporting you, then why is He Zhiqiu's army more than three times larger in number?"

Wei Yuanyao was surprised and said, "What? The enemy's army has more than three times the number of troops, but no one in the court went to support them. At that time, He Zhiqiu wanted to ask the court officials for help, and he sent troops and food, but because of the new emperor's selection of concubines, those people stood on my side. How could they support them?"

The other party also asked in confusion: "Is there something wrong with the emperor? He is actually on He Zhiqiu's side, and you didn't take him down?"

Wei Yuanyao retorted: "How is that possible? He is now obedient to me, and I can see how deeply he hates He Zhiqiu.

This matter is indeed strange. I will send someone to investigate and then I will give you an explanation. You should not appear in my mansion now."

The other party also knew that it was not Wei Yuanyao who betrayed them, so he apologized: "This matter is indeed of great importance. We thought you betrayed the organization, so we sent me to confront you."

Wei Yuanyao said disdainfully: "I'm afraid he doesn't want to confront me, but wants to kill me to silence me."

The other party did not answer, but said directly: "You should know what the consequences are for betraying the organization. This incident really has nothing to do with you, but please investigate the cause of this matter as soon as possible and don't let the organization down." After that, the other party disappeared in Wei Yuanyao's house.

After the other party left, Wei Yuanyao also thought carefully about what had happened in the past few times. He Zhiqiu should have been assassinated when he returned to Beijing last time, but he was actually saved by a tiger. Let's put this aside for now.

This time the matter became even more strange. No one in the court extended a helping hand to He Zhiqiu. How could he recruit soldiers and even prepare enough food and fodder?

Could it be that the other party is really blessed by God? No, that is absolutely impossible. If the other party is blessed by God, how could he not get the favor of the little emperor? Besides, the little emperor is the master of this world.

So where exactly is the problem? Who on earth intervened in He Zhiqiu's affairs? To be able to do such a big thing, he must be a huge force.

By the way, Tianji Sect, could it be that someone from Tianji Sect took action? But who are the people from Tianji Sect? Isn’t it said that Tianji Sect will not come out unless something big happens? Why would the other party appear at this time?

Yes, the young man next to He Zhiqiu was said to be rescued from the battlefield, but no one knew where this young man came from. Could this young man be a member of the Tianji Sect?

Mu Ran didn't know that Wei Yuanyao had already guessed his identity, but even if he didn't know, he could guess it more or less.

After all, such a big leak has happened, it is time for the other party to be suspicious. If the other party has no suspicion at all, he would doubt the other party's IQ. Now it depends on who can keep calm.

At this time, as they were confronting each other, the leader of the enemy country could no longer bear to see his land being taken back by He Zhiqiu, so he quietly sent troops to infiltrate the imperial capital.

When Wei Yuanyao saw the man in black again, he had already brought a large number of people to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Seeing so many people, Wei Yuanyao frowned and said, "Why did you lead so many people to my Prime Minister's Mansion so openly? Are you dissatisfied that I am not exposed fast enough?"

The man in black said, "The king can't wait any longer. Prime Minister! Oh no! It should be the prince. Why don't you just take down the emperor and make yourself king?"

Now, with your status and position as the prince, the power in your hands, and the emperor's trust in you, isn't it easy to capture him?"

Wei Yuanyao said angrily: "Don't you know He Zhiqiu's ability?"

"Your Highness, no matter how dumb He Zhiqiu is, he probably guessed that the Emperor wanted to kill him. And judging from what happened a few times, the other party must have someone with great power to help him.

If His Royal Highness does not take the initiative now, I am afraid that He Zhiqiu will be the one who takes this position in the end. It will be even more difficult for us to succeed then. Besides, the enemy's troops are still at the border. What is Your Royal Highness still considering?"

After hearing what the other party said, Wei Yuanyao thought for a moment and said, "Then how about tomorrow? Tonight you take your people with me to visit the residences of the ministers who are of my lineage."

Early the next morning, there were sounds of fighting and killing in the palace. It turned out that the Prime Minister was planning a rebellion and wanted to seize the throne.

At this time, inside the palace, Gao Huaiyu was shocked to see that his former lover, who was very close to him, actually wanted to kill him and take his place.

He said, "Prime Minister, don't you have any true feelings for me? I have been very kind to you, so why do you treat me like this?"

Wei Yuanyao said, "Your Majesty should know that your ability is not enough to hold on to this position. If Your Majesty is willing to directly issue an edict to abdicate, then I can protect Your Majesty's life. But if Your Majesty insists on not doing so, then don't blame me for being unjust."

Only at this moment did Gao Huaiyu truly recognize this man. It turned out that he had always been at odds with him, and he had been a big fool from the beginning to the end.

He mistook loyal ministers for rebels and treacherous ministers for his confidants. He was indeed not a good emperor and could not judge people well. This was the retribution he deserved.
