The princess was fed contraceptive soup on the day of the marriage exchange, and she went crazy

Chapter 114 Who is in the Mu family?

Shi Huaizhi sneered: "A scapegoat."

scapegoat?

Sheng Nanzhi was a little surprised: "For whose crime?"

"The investigation into this matter hasn't yielded any results yet, and all the evidence points to you. Is there anyone else who's going to take the blame for you?"

Shi Huaizhi couldn't help but laugh. "You forgot, although all the evidence pointed to me temporarily, Commander Lin also found some evidence against Wen Tingyun in the past few days."

"Wasn't Wen Tingyun taken away for questioning by Commander Lin today?"

"Maybe the news got out and someone is getting anxious?"

Is anyone anxious?

"Who?"

His Majesty?

No, it shouldn't be Your Majesty.

Commander Lin is your Majesty's man. If your Majesty wants to protect Wen Tingyun, it would be very easy.

"Could it be Du Qiyu?"

That's possible.

Du Qiyu is now in the palace and has only one son, Wen Tingyun. She will definitely not let anything happen to Wen Tingyun.

Sheng Nanzhi was thinking, but saw Shi Huaizhi shook his head: "It's not Du Qiyu."

If it’s not Your Majesty, if it’s not Du Qiyu, then who else could it be?

Seeing Sheng Nanzhi's puzzled face, Shi Huaizhi turned away and smiled sarcastically: "It's Prime Minister Sheng."

Sheng Lin?

This was really beyond her expectations.

"Why would he interfere?"

As soon as Sheng Nanzhi asked this question, he immediately reacted.

There is a reason why Sheng Lin did this.

Of the three daughters of the Sheng family, one entered the palace as a concubine, and two married princes.

Sheng Lin could not avoid the struggle for the throne.

At that time, Huaizhi was in a coma. If something happened to His Majesty, Wen Tingyun would definitely have to participate in the struggle for power.

Sheng Lin's actions could just do Wen Tingyun a favor.

If Wen Tingyun wins the battle for the throne, Sheng Lin can use the good performance he has done today and his status as Wen Tingyun's father-in-law to help him and the Sheng family move to a higher level.

What's more, this incident involved not only Wen Tingyun, but also her and Shi Huaizhi.

She is pregnant with Shi Huaizhi's child.

By introducing such a scapegoat, the crisis of the two families was directly resolved.

Killing two birds with one stone, Sheng Lin is indeed the final winner.

Sheng Nanzhi lowered her eyes and smiled: "He really is..."

"That's a bit too hasty."

Shi Huaizhi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, the matter has nothing to do with us now. We just need to watch the show."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded and wanted to ask, since Sheng Lin had interfered like this, what was happening at the Mu family?

If Minister Lin admitted that he had tampered with the weapons before they were escorted out of the capital, then it seemed that Mu Zhao could not be charged with negligence in his care.

Then will Mu Zhao... be brought back to the imperial city for interrogation?

It should be. Although Minister Lin stood up, everyone involved still needs to be questioned one by one.

She actually wanted to meet Mu Zhao.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my ally.

Now that Sheng Qingqian insisted on being her enemy, she would have no choice but to... not be polite.

But recalling Shi Huaizhi's sarcastic attitude when he mentioned the Mu family and Mu Zhao, Sheng Nanzhi swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.

Forget it, I'd better wait until Shi Huaizhi is not around and ask her people.

I don’t know what kind of grudge Shi Huaizhi has with the Mu family, but he can’t even mention it.

In the evening, Shi Huaizhi was about to leave to deal with something. Since he was still Sheng Nanzhi's bodyguard on the surface, Shi Huaizhi made a special trip to greet Sheng Nanzhi.

As soon as Shi Huai left, Sheng Nanzhi immediately called in Xue Yi who was on duty.

"The weapons found in our mansion this time were originally escorted to the border by General Mu. Now that the weapons have appeared in our mansion out of nowhere, the Mu family will certainly not escape responsibility. Has His Majesty issued an order to bring General Mu back for questioning?"

Xue Yi nodded. "Shortly after the weapons were discovered in our mansion, His Majesty ordered a search for their origin and whereabouts, and then ordered General Mu to be brought back."

"According to the date, we should reach the Imperial City in a few days."

Sheng Nanzhi nodded: "That's good."

Since Mu Zhao was going back to the imperial city, she could find a way to find an opportunity to meet him.

"Send a message and have our people keep an eye on Mu Zhao. If he returns to the imperial city, I want to know his whereabouts."

"Yes."

In this life, because of her and Sheng Qingqian's rebirth, plus Sheng Yunrou's time travel.

The fight for the throne intensified even earlier than in previous lives.

It was also time for her to contact the people whom she had spent several years to win over in her previous life. Those people she recruited in her previous life played a huge role in helping Wen Tingyun compete for the position of crown prince.

In this life, although she no longer supports Wen Tingyun, she must not lose the power that she has built with so much effort.

No matter how the situation in the capital changes in the future, she is now in the vortex of the power struggle and will always be useful.

Sheng Nanzhi stood up, walked to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote down a few names and addresses.

Fortunately, she knew all the people she relied on most in her previous life.

Although it was much earlier than when she met them in her previous life, she could clearly tell where they should be and what their situation was at this moment.

"Send the message out and have our people go to these places and look for the people I mentioned on the paper."

"Once you find them, don't make a fuss. Just find out about their situation and report everything to me."

When she met these people in her previous life, they were all in trouble, so it was easier for her to recruit them.

People are only grateful to those who lend a helping hand when they are in trouble, but most of them don't feel much towards those who add icing on the cake when they are happy.

Since she wanted them to work for her, she had to use some tricks.

"Yes."

Xueyi agreed, took the paper handed to her by Sheng Nanzhi and stepped back.

As it grew darker, Sheng Nanzhi read for a while and then went to bed.

I was half asleep when I heard someone mumbling in my ear.

"Who in the Mu family is worthy of your attention?"

"But I've had people check it out. You and Mu Zhao have absolutely no connection at all. Not only Mu Zhao, but you have absolutely no connection at all with the Mu family."

"What is your connection with Mu Zhao?"

"How many secrets do you have that I don't know?"

The voice became increasingly angry, "What's so great about Mu Zhao? Is he as good-looking as me? Is he as skilled in martial arts as me? Haha, he's just a young boy who hasn't even grown all his hair yet."

It’s so noisy!

So annoying!

Sheng Nanzhi frowned. Why was this guy never going to stop? He kept buzzing.

She raised her hand and slapped the direction where the sound came from.

With a "pop", the sound stopped abruptly.

Finally, it was quiet. Sheng Nanzhi turned over and fell asleep.
