Chapter 167 Layout
Meng Qing behaved a little abnormally and left after perfunctory words from King Qin.

King Qin's eyes became more and more profound, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

……

After leaving Prince Qin's Mansion, Han Su and Shen Nanfeng returned to Tianjian Division.

Han Su's face was always gloomy, and she stared at Shen Nanfeng for a long time.

"Shen Nanfeng, do you know that with my internal strength, I can hear other people's breathing clearly through walls?"

Shen Nanfeng was stunned, "Well, what next?"

"What do you mean when you say those words to King Qin?"

Only then did Shen Nanfeng realize that she was eavesdropping when she said she was waiting for him outside.

"I gave King Qin an idea to save Mu Lingzhu. Isn't this too much?"

Han Su calmly replied: "It's not too much. Her crime is not worthy of death, and she is such a powerful doctor. She can save more people while she is alive."

"That... is for me to give King Qin advice on how to deal with Xiao Wending."

Seeing Shen Nanfeng keep playing tricks on him, Han Su also lost his patience.

"Remind them what does it mean that Xiao Linchun has two sons."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Nanfeng felt a chill. Han Su would never do this to him.

To be precise, since she came back from Nanning City, she has rarely been seen so seriously.

Shen Nanfeng reacted immediately.

"Miss Han, I'm very happy that you asked me directly instead of thinking that I would give them some vicious plan."

"So I want to hear your explanation."

"What I mean is that if you want to kill Xiao Wending, you have to let Prime Minister Xiao understand that he also has a son, Xiao Wenjing, who is in the cabinet. Although he has no great achievements, he is fairly upright. Compared with this son, Xiao Wending None of that."

"I still don't understand what you mean." Han Su pretended to be flipping through the book in her hand. At this moment, she didn't want Shen Nanfeng to be as impressive a villain as she thought.

Shen Nanfeng continued to explain: "People are instinctively seeking perfection. Xiao Xiang is a man of character, but this time, he still had selfish motives and wanted to protect his useless son. But such selfish motives are not strong. I I hope that King Qin and King Xuan can find a way to put some pressure on him and let him understand that even if Xiao Wending is gone, there will be a better son, even if they use some means? Even if Xiao Xiang himself can choose from the two sons. What about the choice?”

Han Su breathed a sigh of relief, "But your words sound like you have a desperate plan for King Qin."

Shen Nanfeng shook his head, "There is not much problem with my statement. After all, the other party is the prime minister of the dynasty. King Qin can find a way to deal with him. I can't interfere. But similarly, I don't think these two brothers have the guts to deal with Xiao." What does the Prime Minister’s family do?”

"That's not necessarily true. There are many desperadoes under King Qin's command. He even dares to assassinate the prince. Why else would he dare not?"

Shen Nanfeng was stunned, "No way, do you really think my words will remind them of something vicious?"

Han Su shook her head, obviously she wasn't sure.

"You seem to want King Qin to deal with Prime Minister Xiao?"

Many thoughts flashed through Shen Nanfeng's mind, and they were actually right.

After all, King Qin could not shake Prime Minister Xiao. From the beginning when he asked King Qin to help King Qin deal with Xiao Wending, Shen Nanfeng guessed that King Qin would find an opportunity to deal with the Xiao family.

As the leaders of the noble clan, the Xiao family is the followers of the prince. To disturb the Xiao family is to disturb the foundation of the prince.

Shen Nanfeng felt that time was tight and wanted to let King Qin force him into a desperate situation.

When His Majesty begins to realize that King Qin is beginning to become uncontrollable, he may give up the idea of ​​using clan members to suppress his relatives.

Even if the King of Qin goes and becomes a vassal state?
As long as King Qin cannot cause trouble in Kyoto, future rebellions may be able to be stopped.Throughout the book, King Qin has a chance to ascend to the throne, but not now.

Wait at least another ten years, but that’s all for another day.

The world's strife, the position of the emperor, and the human heart are the most difficult things in the world to fathom.

Seeing Shen Nanfeng's silence, Han Su stopped asking further questions.

Changing the topic: "Meng Qing is most likely the murderer of His Highness the Eighth Prince."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Nanfeng was also deeply surprised.

"why?"

"All the clues pointed to her, and the moment she saw the jade bead, her reaction was obviously beyond the normal reaction. At that time, her eyes seemed surprised that the jade bead was in my hand."

Shen Nanfeng thought for a moment, "Yes, no matter whether this jade bead is important or not, her eyes should not be so surprised for a moment, as if this thing will never appear."

"She must have checked the scene very well, so she was still surprised to see something missing, or in other words, she didn't even notice that one was missing."

"But this cannot be used as evidence against her."

Han Su smiled and said, "That's why I returned the beads to her. Now I'm curious about what motive she had to kill His Highness the Eighth Prince?"

Shen Nanfeng's expression became solemn, and he immediately stood under the desk. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said slowly:

"I have a theory, please listen to it."

"Say!"

"Mu Lingzhu has been in contact with the King of Qin for a long time. After all, when the King of Qin led his army to fight in Shu, no one can guarantee that he has not been to Shu, and there is no guarantee that he has met Mu Lingzhu in advance."

"Go on."

"Maybe he and Mu Lingzhu already knew each other at that time, and that night at Zixian Mountain, Mu Lingzhu went to see Meng Qing in order to contact King Qin. Maybe they talked about something. His Highness the Eighth Prince who wanted to steal the sword heard it, so Meng Qing started killing people."

"I don't think King Qin would instruct Meng Qing to kill his sister." Han Su interrupted directly.

"But what if Meng Qing is not ordered by King Qin? A woman who deeply loves a man can do anything."

"Meng Qing loves King Qin deeply?"

Shen Nanfeng was stunned, "Miss Han can't see it, right? A woman can't hide the look in her eyes when she looks at the one she loves."

Han Su seemed to understand, "So, when Mu Lingzhu and Meng Qing met, they must have talked about some secret. If this secret was heard by others, it might threaten the life of King Qin, so Meng Qing took it upon himself to kill the thief. Listener, is this what you mean?"

It was precisely because he knew that Mu Lingzhu was the key figure in King Qin's rebellion that Shen Nanfeng was more inclined to this speculation.

Maybe His Highness the Eighth Prince heard something related to rebellion that day.

"I'm not sure, but I can give it a try."

"How to try?"

"Is there a way to spread the news and make Meng Qing aware of our movements?"

"It's not difficult. Do you want to deceive her?"

Shen Nanfeng nodded, "Let the news go first, just say that we have found the key witness. No, we still have to cover it up a little to make Meng Qing think we have taken action. Then all the experts from the Tianjian Division will go out and attack Zixian Mountain directly. I will take the experts there Escort this fictitious "key witness" back, and then you enter the palace and go directly to the palace. Anyway, you have been pestering the queen and trying to find a way to get the queen to accompany you to Prince Qin's Mansion in person."

 It's been a little slow and messy lately. At that time, I didn't follow the outline and I added a little bit of plot, but I found it would be better to just speed up the pace, so I've been quickly making up for it.
