Chapter 42144216【The best of both worlds】
When we came to the back hall, we saw that the banquet had been set.
Shenhou, Yunluo, Haitang, Xiang Nan, Cheng Shifei and others were all seated.
“Haitang, you have done a great job on this mission. Thank you for your hard work.” The Goddess raised a glass in celebration.
“Thank you so much, foster father.” Haitang also raised his glass and said, “Thanks to Yi Dao and Princess Xiang’s help this time, otherwise Haitang may not have been able to succeed.”
"Yes." The **** nodded, "Cao Zhengchun is going too far now. I have received news that he is recruiting troops to deal with our Hulong Villa."
"Don''t worry, foster father. We at Hulong Villa are not easy to take lightly. It will not be easy for him to harm us." Haitang explained to him, "I am more worried now that he has the intention to usurp the throne and will attack the emperor."
?Before, Cao Zhengchun had tried to harm Princess Yunluo many times, not caring that she was a member of the royal family. It can be seen that this slave has been restless for a long time, so it is only a matter of time before he attacks the emperor.
?However, Xiang Nan did not agree with Haitang''s view.
Because Cao Zhengchun’s power comes from the emperor.
??He is the governor of the East Factory and is also in charge of the Jinyiwei. He seems to have all the power, but he is still a slave after all. His position and power were given to him by the emperor.
Therefore, if the emperor wanted to kill him, it would not be difficult to seize his power.
Just like Liu Jin, who claimed to be nine thousand years old and established an emperor, but Emperor Zhengde sent him to prison and executed him with an imperial edict; Wei Zhongxian once had power in the government and everyone, and various places rushed to build a shrine for him. But when Chongzhen wanted to kill him, he didn''t even dare to resist and chose to hang himself...
?Of course, the world of "The Best in the World" is not real history. Cao Zhengchun possesses peerless martial arts, and no one can kill him. However, he would not attack the emperor easily, especially when Tiedan Shenhou was still there.
Because if he attacks the emperor now, it will only give God an excuse to "clear the emperor''s side and punish the eunuchs".
When the time comes, the **** raises his arms and calls, and all the officials respond, and the ten generals also declare King Qin, then Cao Zhengchun has no choice but to die.
However, although Xiang Nan understood, he didn''t say much.
On the one hand, he did not want to arouse the alarm of God. After all, Yi Dao''s character is a ruthless and cold-faced killer, a very useful tool, and he shouldn''t have such avant-garde ideas.
On the one hand, Shenhou wanted to send someone to the emperor''s side. Even if he objected, it would be useless. In this case, why would he open his mouth? Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with him.
…
“You’re right, I’m worried too.” Shenhou nodded.
"Uncle Emperor, what should we do? Now the Emperor''s brother is surrounded by people who castrate dogs. If he wants to attack the Emperor''s brother, the Emperor''s brother will be in danger." Princess Yunluo was also worried when she heard this. road.
“Dongchang has always been responsible for the internal affairs. Even if I want to send people to the emperor, there is nothing I can do.” Shenhou said thoughtfully.
?Of course he wanted to send someone to the emperor''s side to keep abreast of his every move. But this is not easy to do.
Because both Dongchang and the emperor were extremely wary of him and did not trust the people he sent. So even if he sends people there, he is sending a sheep into a tiger''s mouth and will be eliminated in a few days.
“Hey, I have a way to get the best of both worlds.” Yun Luo suddenly laughed.
“Princess, do you have any idea?” Haitang asked curiously.
Shenhou also looked at her doubtfully.
?His original idea was to give Haitang as a tribute to the emperor as his concubine.
?He knew that although the emperor was smart, he knew how to control him and Cao Zhengchun through checks and balances. But he also has one biggest shortcoming, which is lust.
That''s why he had come up with a fake plan before, just to take advantage of the emperor''s lecherous problem to kill him. But unexpectedly, this plan ultimately failed due to the chaos caused by right and wrong. This time he wanted to send Haitang to implement this plan.
At that time, he does not need Haitang to kill the emperor, but as long as Haitang tells him every move of the emperor and blows some pillow wind to the emperor, then success will be achieved.
??And he also believed that it would not be difficult to charm the emperor with Haitang''s beauty.
He has even thought about how to persuade Haitang if she is not willing.
??But now that the princess has an idea, he really wants to know what her idea is.
"But it''s going to be difficult for our No. 1 secret agent with yellow letters." Yun Luo looked at Cheng Shifeidao.
Shenhou, Haitang, and Cheng Shifei were all stunned when they heard what she said.
“How do you say it?” Shenhou asked.
"It''s simple, just betroth me to Cheng Fei. When the time comes, he becomes the prince-in-law, won''t he be able to be by the emperor''s side?" Yun Luo explained with a smile.
“What a great idea.” Haitang clapped her hands and smiled after hearing this.
“It’s just that Cheng Shifei came from a humble background, so I’m afraid he’s not worthy of being a princess.” Shenhou frowned.
"It''s easy. We can arrange an identity for him." Xiang Nan said, "Let''s say he is a prince from a certain overseas country, married into the Ming Dynasty, and married Princess Yunluo."
"Yeah." Haitang nodded, "Let''s just go to Jiaozhi. It would be a good match for a prince from Jiaozhi to marry into the royal family."
“Let me think about it.” Shen Hou thought for a while and said.
…
After the banquet, Xiang Nan returned to his room, first cast a Muggle shielding spell, and then cast Apparition, and came to Shennongjia, where Tianxiang cardamom is cultivated.
I saw that the Tianxiang Cardamom had successfully taken root and sprouted, and a green seedling grew.
This made Xiang Nan very happy. Since it can take root and germinate, it is possible for it to bloom and bear fruit.
Xiang Nan immediately applied some fertilizer to it. This fertilizer is made from the excrement of the Moon Chi Beast, and this fertilizer is very universal and can be applied to almost any kind of herbal medicine.
Xiang Nan also hopes that Tianxiang cardamom will bloom and bear fruit as soon as possible.
After applying fertilizer, Xiang Nan contacted Yagyu Tajima Mamoru again.
“Master~” Yagyu Tajima Mamoru’s face soon appeared in the double-sided mirror.
“Where are you now?” Xiang Nan asked.
"I am now in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I received an order to assassinate Cao Guangde, the **** of the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau." Yagyu Taimamomo explained.
Xiang Nan nodded. In the past three months, Yagyu Tajima Mamoru has been controlled remotely by the God of Iron Dan. Help him spy on the ministers and the top ten generals, so that he can better control those courtiers and generals.
?At the same time, Yagyu Taimashou also helped him assassinate people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and helped him cut off Cao Zhengchun''s wings step by step.
?Jiangnan Weaving Bureau was in charge of all the imperial merchants in Jiangnan who supplied fabrics to the palace. They weaved various clothing materials and made silk and imperial edicts and silk ribbons for the emperor and the palace to offer sacrifices and awards.
Jiangnan silk embroidery is not only very popular in China, but also royal family members, civil and military officials, gentry and wealthy businessmen are vying to buy it. Even foreigners like it very much, and they are willing to travel thousands of miles to transport it back through the sea and the Silk Road for sale. Ship silk fabrics can earn ten thousand taels of silver.
Hence, the Weaving Bureau can be said to be making money every day and making money every day. The eunuchs of the East Factory occupied the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau and contributed hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to Cao Zhengchun every year, which was a great help to him. Therefore, the Goddess ordered to kill Cao Guangde and cut off one of Cao Zhengchun''s arms.
