Chapter 312: How about counting with fingers?

Chu Qingmeng's words made Mo Chenfeng burst into laughter. He spoke up for her, "Alright, He Qi, and Liu Jue and Liu Teng, you are not allowed to investigate anymore. I've known for a long time that Qingmeng has spies in your place. You don't have to feel wronged. Qingmeng always treats you the same. You brothers all have her people under her command. She didn't even let Liu Jin go."

This attracted the attention of several people who looked at Mo Liujin. Mo Liuteng couldn't help but ask, "Third brother, is it true?"

"Yeah." Mo Liujin took a sip of tea and responded, "I knew it a few days earlier than you did."

"Do you blame me? You want to know the news from me, but none of you want me to plant spies here. It just so happens that I have been studying how to cultivate immortality recently. Otherwise, how about you rely on me to calculate the news in the future?" Chu Qingmeng seemed to have regained his previous lively personality. He was no longer reserved when he spoke today.

All the younger generations were so amused by her that they were trying not to laugh. When did Third Aunt become so funny?

"That's fine. I can come to you for advice before doing anything in the future." Mo Liufang couldn't help but tease her with a smile. She is now the same as when they first met.

Mo Liuyuan finally arrived. As soon as he entered, he heard Mo Liufang say something about settling accounts. He bowed and took his seat before asking what was going on. Jiang Yu whispered the whole story to Mo Liuyuan. Mo Liuyuan simply raised an eyebrow, glanced at the still-struggling Mo Liujue, and reminded him, "Fourth Brother, you must remember the things Qing Meng had sent to the palace when she was helping her ascend the throne. Those things represent her strength. She said she had spies all over the world. None of you took it to heart, did you?"

Mo Liujue shook his head. "I'm not dwelling on that. I'm just not used to Qing Meng suddenly going from being someone we're protecting to someone who's standing with us."

Mo Liujin understood what he meant and smiled at him, saying, "Old Four, Qing Meng is lazy and content to be protected, but she won't let herself lose the ability to protect herself. It's just that her ability to protect herself is a little too strong, and sometimes being overshadowed by her can make people feel a little frustrated. At least I've felt incompetent more than once."

"Third brother, how did you get here?" Mo Liujue was very curious. This was a challenge for a man. Accepting that his wife was stronger than him was difficult. At least for men of their generation, it was difficult.

Mo Liujin raised an eyebrow and looked at Mo Liujue, a smile on his lips that was slightly impolite. "Qing Meng is actually very good at understanding my thoughts. She is very obedient when she shows weakness."

"..." Mo Liujue rolled his eyes at him with disdain, his face a worthless expression! "Does Qing Meng really need to show weakness? Look at you! She beckoned me, and I'm afraid you'll run over like a dog at a bone, right?!"

"Alright, stop arguing." Mo Chenfeng put down his tea bowl and spoke, "Envoys from various countries will arrive in Kyoto in three months to congratulate the new emperor on his ascension to the throne. Fifteen and Seventeen are restless and might be planning something to do with this matter..."

Although there were many people in the room today, once the serious business started, the younger generations were not allowed to speak anymore and could only listen to their fathers and others discussing the deployment.

Chu Qingmeng didn't speak or write this time. She hadn't received any news yet, and without it, she couldn't make any plans. She quietly listened to them talk. The spies sent by Eleventh had indeed been cleansed this time, and he hadn't even left any of them behind. Fifteenth and Seventeenth's next move wasn't hard to guess; it was nothing more than rebellion. But she wondered if the two of them, combined with the Crown Prince's remaining followers, would be a case of three cobblers outmatching Zhuge Liang. As for the envoys from various countries...

"My son? Do you have anything to say?" Seeing that Chu Qingmeng seemed to be thinking about something, Mo Chenfeng asked.

Chu Qingmeng looked at Mo Chenfeng and shook his head. "Father, I have no news yet. It's not hard to guess what Fifteen and Seventeen are doing. No matter how they move, they can't escape Eleven's eyes. As long as Father doesn't stop them, Eleven will most likely get rid of their gang. To be honest, Father, Eleven has already borrowed some people from me. It's just that there's no legitimate reason. If nothing unexpected happens, a reason will come soon."

"What do you mean?" Mo Chenfeng looked at Chu Qingmeng and waited for her to explain.

"When all nations come to pay tribute, regardless of whether there's trouble or not, who did it will ultimately be labeled Fifteen and Seventeen. So Father should have discussed the deployment of defenses with Eleven. Eleven's schemes... are too deep, and without communication, no one will know what he's up to. Although we've left spies around him," Chu Qingmeng smiled; she was a lot like Eleven sometimes. "Eleven's escaping skills are a perfectionist. He has over a dozen stand-ins."

Mo Liujin raised his eyebrows slightly. No wonder he had been using a stand-in so frequently recently. It turned out he learned it from Eleven.

"My son also has spies in the upper position?" Mo Chenfeng laughed helplessly. She was really brave, but it seemed that she really needed to inform the upper position. Alas, "Is it really impossible to protect them?"

Chu Qingmeng looked at Mo Chenfeng seriously and said, "Father, I told you from the beginning that the prerequisite for saving them is that they must remove the new emperor's defenses against them. But they are really stupid. They keep jumping in the minefield of Eleven and are now conspiring with the remnants of the crown prince. Father, the current stability of the border is also the result of my third brother's more than 20 years of defense. At most, there will be people on the border ready to make trouble in the next three to five years. By then, my third brother will definitely return to the border again. Once my third brother leaves, I am afraid there will be some unrest in the court."
