There is always a crossing that suits you

When Qiao Mu returned to his residence, he saw that Irene was already waiting for him.

"Your Highness." After a respectful salute, the beautiful female officer handed over the sheepskin scroll with both hands.This is a new tool proposed by Qiao Mu for recording. The intelligence organizations under his command all use this processed lambskin, which is convenient and light.

Qiao Mu took the scroll and put it aside, he was not busy reading it, after all some things cannot be expressed by words alone.

"Irene." Signaled Kaxiu to retreat, only Qiao Mu and his chief female officer were left in the study.

"How did my brother behave after seeing his father's corpse?"

"The Third Highness was very surprised at first..." Irene's memory has always been her proud capital, and her excellent observation skills and meticulous thoughts are the guarantee for her to stand behind His Highness.Now she uses her excellent memory to restore the scene at that time in her mind, and narrates it as accurately as possible.

Qiao Mu listened quietly, asking a question or two from time to time.With Irene's detailed explanation, vivid pictures appeared in my mind.He frowned slightly, and when he heard a coroner turning over King Xitai's body, his frown became tighter.

"Tell me about that coroner's method." Qiao Mu had a faint feeling that something was wrong.

"Yes." Then Irene described in detail how the male coroner examined the corpse of King Xitai, how he ordered the doctors to take measures, and how to deal with it.

"Has the coroner's identity been checked?" A lingering sense of something is wrong, peaking when Irene talks about the coroner's high forehead and honey complexion.

"I'll send someone to investigate right away." After hearing His Highness say this, Miss Irene knew that she had neglected her duty, and quickly knelt down.

"Don't be so busy blaming yourself, just finish talking." Qiao Mu waved his hand, he suddenly had a headache, and things seemed to be getting out of control. "What about the mother and son? Is there any change?"

"The princess wanted to send Ulussi to send His Royal Highness Xiuda out of the palace, but he didn't act after Priest Pruman found out and stopped him."

"So she understands the truth." If you guessed right, that woman should want to send Xiu Da away from the place of right and wrong.After all, the capital is in chaos now, and he, a soft and cute little prince who has just grown up, may be torn apart by life without Dawaana not paying attention.In all honesty, Qiao Mu quite likes the type of woman Wang Hao, who is knowledgeable about current affairs and advances and retreats, presumably won't cause him any trouble.If the other party behaves well, it is not impossible to give her son a rich fief.

"How about Mardi Vaser's soldiers? Is it easy to use?" Qiao Mu saw the evil and bewitching expression of the tall man, and a burst of cold sweat crept up his back. He hurriedly shook the painful picture out of his mind. It must be his memory. The way is wrong!

"The head of the bodyguard (yes, the black prince has become one of the head of the fool's bodyguard) is quick and efficient. Cooperating with the spies we started and Dawaana's private army, the Royal City Guard can complete [-]% of the work. control work."

Qiao Mu is quite satisfied with this ratio. Although the ideal state is to reach [-]%, it is obviously not realistic.Even if it's only [-]%, just kill all the troublemakers when the time comes.

After asking a few more questions, feeling that there was nothing more to ask, Qiao Mu waved his hand——

"Go ahead."

Irene obeyed the order and stepped down. She still had to investigate the coroner's identity. During this critical period, Wang Cheng's intelligence could not be relaxed for a moment. This was her professionalism.

Qiao Mu, who was sitting alone in the office, opened the scroll and flipped through it.Then--

The more you turn, the more angry you become, and the more you worry, the colder you become.

This information doesn't seem to matter, everything is done properly, and on the surface he has already controlled the overall situation.But this is too smooth, this kind of smoothness itself is an abnormality.Although Qiao Mu is self-confident, he is not so conceited that he thinks that with his people, he can operate from the intelligence system of the ancient West Taiwan without disturbing anyone.Some of his plans can be completed 100%, some of which he never thought would be completed, and some of which he has even arranged for suicide attacks to be carried out.But judging from the current situation, he didn't encounter much resistance at all, and even the most difficult task could be solved after a short pause.So Stupid looked at the scroll carefully again, as if he had a flash of inspiration, put the scroll down with a snap, got up and rummaged through the secret box containing the scrolls sent before.Not long after, he took out two scrolls with no special features.Neither red for urgency nor gold for importance, just gray for ordinary events.

Qiao Mu only had a little impression of this, thanks to the fact that Kailu was not doing business when he was reading the scroll.

Open the scroll and find a small piece of information among various information—a flying insect fell into the water of the Great Temple, and it has been replaced; look further down—Second Physician Carter fell down the steps and broke his hand, The chief medical officer, Simitel, took over the post temporarily.Frowning, he opened another scroll, and sure enough, he found it in the corner—the great medical officer Simitel performed well, and the chief physician allowed him to be promoted to the second seat.

The time was a year ago, and a description of Simiter's appearance was attached.

Unfortunately, the description of this person's appearance coincided with Irene's description of the coroner. Anger hit Qiao Mu's heart in an instant. It was unforgivable for someone to dare to set him up under his nose.But the anger was only for a moment, and Qiao Mu quickly calmed down.Since the layout of this bureau was started a year ago at the latest, it must have been carefully planned. I can only be thankful that he found out now. Even if it is too late, it is better than being caught off guard when the incident happened.Qiao Mu got up and simply took out all the scrolls in the box one by one, and scanned all the scrolls at a glance, ticking off all the scrolls that were found to have personnel changes, no matter how small.Then he was so angry that he discovered that nearly [-]% of them were problematic!These people may be due to their low positions, or because the positions themselves need to be replaced frequently, Irene did not notice, but each of them can have unexpected effects as long as they are used well. If these people belong to the same organization, Or the alliance, at the same time, stumbling the west stage, it is simply... Even if it is not intentional, as long as each of them makes a small mistake within the scope of their authority, and then magnified by the operation link, the consequences Absolutely unimaginable!Damn it, he shouldn't have too much confidence in King Xitai's control over the imperial capital!Scammed by that old thing!

Stupid was furious in his heart, if he hadn't been afraid of King Xitai's young appearance, he wouldn't have dared to insert too many people in the intelligence department, how could it be possible to find out now?Although the mastermind behind the scenes has deep scheming and superb methods, as long as there is sufficient intelligence collection and multiple comparisons, even the most inconspicuous little trouble will be repeatedly confirmed by intelligence from different channels and directions. How could such a thing happen now!The most sad and indignant thing is that he has already discovered these people, but due to the situation, he still can't move them.He didn't think the detonation time of these time bombs would be after he ascended the throne to control the situation.It's only been for nearly a year, who knows how many of these people there are in places he doesn't know?Who sent these people?According to this posture and this scale, it is absolutely impossible to be the power of some prince and noble in Xitai, and it is absolutely impossible for Qiao Mu, a Xitai native with such a scheming plan, to not know about it!But if this is a spy from another country, then...

There are definitely traitors among the elders of Xitai!Disgraceful betrayal!

Sure enough, no matter how many years passed, what Qiao Mu hated the most was traitors.

In anger, Qiao Mu suddenly remembered the man leaning against the date palm just now, the determined look in his strange eyes, and the light words.

"I will help you ascend to the throne."

"you need me."

In the midst of extreme anger, Qiao Mu calmed down instead.

"Your Highness." Lady Irene's voice came at the right time.

"Come in."

"Yes." Obviously His Highness's voice was the same as usual, and Irene could still accurately sense His Highness's deeply suppressed anger.Just like the surface of the sea before a storm, under the calm water surface are tumbling violent undercurrents.

The female officer didn't dare to say much, she put the record scroll in front of Qiao Mu and walked out on her knees.

Qiao Mu didn't leave her behind, and directly opened the scroll, which contained detailed information about the coroner, including his origin, experience, appearance, and small living habits.After reading the whole article in detail, and fixedly staring at the sentence of the southwestern border for a minute, Qiao Mu threw the scroll and closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair.No one knew the storm in his heart, and countless speculations were surging. He had to prepare for the worst.Those people may not do anything until a few days later, or it may not be peaceful tonight.Although Ramses probably didn't know that he had discovered an anomaly, it was unlikely that he would act immediately.But who knows if Irene's investigation just now has alarmed snakes that shouldn't be alarmed?He never staked his hopes on the actions of the enemy.

The countermeasures were put forward one by one, but overthrown by him one by one, and in the end, only the heart was full of condensation.

I don't know how long it took, when Qiao Mu opened his eyes again, his beautiful light golden pupils had turned into darkness.Those are not pure black eyes, but like the sky in the deepest night, blue to black, absorbing all the starlight.

"Kashu, Irene, inform everyone: tonight, we will do it." Such cruel words came from Qiao Mu's mouth without a trace of blood.

"Yes! Your Highness!" Kaxiu and Irene replied at the same time. Their hearts were filled with excitement and joy at the same time. They had arranged so old, and they had been looking forward to it for so long, and finally this moment has arrived!They can't wait to see His Highness put on the most noble crown and sit on the highest throne on the West Terrace.

Looking at the two people who tried their best to remain calm but couldn't hide their excitement, Qiao Mu's long eyelashes drooped to cover the surging emotions in his dark blue eyes.

He waved his hand to signal the two to step back and began to prepare.

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

The stars cover the moon, and the night is as cool as water.

Countless fresh lives disappeared before they noticed the abnormality.Qiao Mu put on his battle armor and led his army to clear the stubborn royal guards.The armor that had been bathed in the blood of the enemy countless times was stained red again, but now it was the blood of the Xitai people.Qiaomu had been planning to force the palace for a long time, and began to arrange it when he realized that the old man Xitai Wang would not obediently pass on the throne to him.From the allocation of troops to the scheduling of personnel, various plans have been deliberated countless times, and finally the most suitable one is left. After the long preparations, everything has been properly arranged, and the difference is Qiao Mu's order. Ordered the bloodbath of the palace's safeguards.

Qiao Mu's timing was excellent. King Xitai died during the day, and everyone was caught off guard. Even if Kailu had some control, it was inevitable that people would panic. The guarding force of the king's city was at its weakest.Supilulius I's brothers had already been killed by himself, and Qiao Mu was not afraid of any uncle who didn't have long-sightedness coming to hinder him. In addition, the only princes with military power were Kailu and Qiao Mu himself. Just deal with some disobedient nobles and the army with power.

In fact, those soldiers who were fighting were also very distressed. Their responsibility was to be loyal to the king and protect the king's city, but now that the king is dead, they are still loyal!Besides, it is Prince Senasa who is taking the throne now!That His Highness who is said to be the son of Anshen!The God of War who once led everyone to victory in the Southern and Northern Wars!

Or is the idol in your heart swollen?

Suddenly feel that His Highness will be very good if he becomes the new king?

Therefore, except for some stubborn or unruly soldiers who were ordered by other nobles, no one else has much fighting spirit.Compared with the soldiers on Qiao Mu's side, who were no different from being beaten with chicken blood, they were as powerful as a broken bamboo!In addition, Qiao Mu was not allowed to disturb the people from the beginning, and the impact of the coup was kept to a minimum. Ordinary people closed their doors and stayed at home. There were not even cats on the street that would only affect the speed of the soldiers.

In this bloodbath, Qiao Mu actually split into two groups.The main force was led by him to attack the palace, and the rest were arrested according to the list of spies he compiled.Time was too tight to find the rebellious elder, but it didn't matter, all the elders were in the palace, so it's not too good to catch a turtle in a urn.Anyway, he planned not to let anyone escape after he captured the palace. After he controlled the situation, he was afraid that no traitor would be found?

Because of Qiao Mu's deliberate control, Kailu, who was discussing with the elders in the palace, knew nothing about the fastest and most successful coup in history, which was called "Bloody Night" by later generations.Until the sound of shouting and killing came into the palace, after Kailu ordered the palace guards to open the palace door, the familiar smell of blood made him understand everything in an instant.

Without the anger of being betrayed, nor the panic of life being threatened, Kailu had a faint smile on his face, calm and composed.His performance undoubtedly gave confidence to the bewildered elders present.They surrounded Kailu one after another and put forward a plan of 'escape'.But they were doomed to be disappointed, Kailu just smiled mildly, straightened his clothes and didn't say a word, no matter how much the respected old ministers tried to persuade him, he refused to leave.This luxurious meeting hall has only one exit, the gate, but now there are shouts of killing outside, and those nobles who are willing to die are naturally unwilling to take the risk to go out.The rebels may not necessarily kill these veterans. After all, they have served Xitai for many years and have family blessings behind them. No matter who ascends to the throne, they need them to stabilize the situation.If Mao rashly escaped, if he was shot to death by random arrows, there would be nowhere to cry.But even if they knew it in their hearts, they still didn't want to stay in such a dangerous place.However, only King Xitai and the crown prince can master the secret passage of the palace. Now that the king and the crown prince have received lunches, the only one who may know is Prince Kailu in front of him.But judging from the other party's appearance, it seems that they don't intend to escape... You must know that they may not die, but a prince who failed to seize the throne, that's not necessarily the case.Could it be that this rebel has any connection with him?

Inexplicably, the elders felt that they were the truth.

This sense of truth didn't stop until I saw the former Mitanni man known as the bloody black prince - Madi Vaser, holding a long sword, stepping into the hall covered in blood, and then shattered into slag.

"Black Prince!" A minister with a bad heart exclaimed.

"Oh my god! It turned out to be him!" This person is good at making up his mind, "Could it be that the Mitanni rebels captured Xitai?"

"Why are you here?" Kailu said lightly, his voice was too calm, and he didn't seem to be unarmed at all, and his life depended on the captive who stepped into him.

"Hey! Of course I'm here because I'm the commander of this army." Marty Vase's dark eyes were full of excitement, and it was obvious that he had a good time killing.Although he joined Qiao Mu's command, he still resented the palace being breached.Now that he can take the lead in capturing the palace of King Xitai and assist the person in his heart to ascend to the throne, the sour feeling is really satisfying.

"It's him." Still in a calm voice, the Third Prince of the West Terrace seemed to be at peace.But Prince Hei was still keenly aware of the fluctuation in the other party's eyes, clearly showing that he was restless.In this regard, the black prince expressed his joy.

"I don't know what you're talking about." The Black Prince said deliberately, as he stepped into the hall, the uncoagulated blood left along the armor, leaving dark red footprints on the white stone bricks.Every step carries a strong evil spirit.

When the ministers saw the evil god approaching His Highness, even though they were afraid in their hearts, they shivered and stood in front of Kailu.For the sake of the confidentiality of the discussion, none of them brought guards, so that there are only some defenseless civil servants here.

Under the eyes of the black prince full of malice and sarcasm, Kailu didn't show the slightest timidity, he calmly pushed aside the guarding civil servant standing in front of him, "You know."

Facing the stunning black pupils, Kailu's eyes were full of confidence, "You can't beat me."

The black prince's eyes, which were already full of evil spirit, burst out with a murderous light.

In the moment when the sword was suspended, the sound of footsteps striking each other broke the tense atmosphere.The visitor didn't speak a word, but walked steadily into the hall step by step. The metal armor's collision statement was obviously not big, but it struck everyone's heart one after another.The man's slightly pursed lips and resolute chin clearly showed his iron-blooded strength.He walked step by step, with momentum like an abyss.

"Sai Nasha..." Kailu's voice trembled for the first time, and Qiao Mu stopped in front of him and looked at him.The eyes blended together, and time seemed to be frozen between the closest brothers of the Xitai royal family.The onlookers, the streams of blood flowing out of the palace, the red-stained land, and the still endless sound of weapons piercing into the flesh all receded, as if there were only these two similar-looking youths standing facing each other in the world.

until--

"Your Majesty." The tall man knelt on one knee, the quiet space was broken, time passed again, and the two who looked at each other in silence returned to the present world.

Black Prince's words were like a signal, and all the soldiers who followed Qiao Mu knelt down on one knee.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

The calls of allegiance were joined together, and Qiao Mu remained motionless, still staring into Kailu's eyes.

Until none of the sergeants on Qiao Mu's side stood up, Kailu still didn't move.The situation in the hall was a bit weird for a while, the civilian nobles in robes stood behind Kailu, facing Qiao Mu and countless loyalists kneeling behind him.

Speechless——

After a while, a relieved smile floated in Kailu's eyes, he took a step back, and slowly knelt down under Qiao Mu's surprised gaze.

The third prince, who was kneeling on the knees, had a warm smile on his face. He bent down and gently kissed the instep of his beloved younger brother, his eyes were full of pious tenderness.

"Mine, Your Majesty."
