"Subordinate Song Mao greets lord."
When Qin Mo stepped into the front hall, Song Mao, who was still sitting on the chair, said,
He had already stood up, and his face could not help but be a little excited.
Qin Mo waved his hand to dismiss the servants.
Song Mao immediately took a few steps forward and bowed to Qin Mo.
If the city guards saw this middle-aged man calling Qin Mo lord, their jaws would definitely drop.
This was because this middle-aged man's identity was the commander of the Imperial City's 20,000 City Guards, and he was in charge of the Imperial City's security patrol.
He didn't expect it to really be Song Mao.
Qin Mo's eyes also revealed a hint of joy.
To Qin Mo, the strength of twenty thousand city guards was more practical than those civil officials.
After all, only with the power of the military in their hands could they have absolute authority.
Why didn't Si Hao dare to attack her in the court earlier?
It was all because he was powerful. Si Hao had no confidence and did not dare to gamble with his life!
If Si Hao's strength back then, or if one of his loyal subordinates could easily subdue him, it would have been a different outcome.
"No need for formalities."
Qin Mo raised his palm and said. Then, he sat down on the main seat.
Qin Mo had also checked Song Mao's cultivation.
Although he couldn't be compared to the commander of the Imperial Guards, Xu Yuanliang, he had already reached Houtian seventh stage and was considered quite powerful.
Qin Mo was quite happy to receive news of his fourth loyal minister today.
After the two of them chatted for a while, Qin Mo pondered for a moment and then said,"
"You came at the right time.
Benwang has something to do here and wanted to send someone to do it.
But after thinking about it, it was still better for the city guards to handle it.”
"Please tell me, my lord."
Song Mao's expression immediately became more serious.
"Last night, there was an assassination attempt in the palace and Si Hao has been assassinated. I believe you have already heard this news from the imperial guards.”
Song Mao nodded.
Seeing this, Qin Mo continued,"
"However, this matter seems to have been deliberately suppressed by someone. Currently, very few people in the Imperial City know about it.
I want the city guards to secretly leak the news of Si Hao's death when they are searching for the assassin in the Imperial City.”
A strange light flashed in Qin Mo's eyes.
From the news that Qin Ren had received from the Imperial City today.
It was obvious that there was a capable minister who was secretly covering up the news of Si Hao's death and had sealed the news.
The purpose was probably to prevent panic in the court and to stabilize the country of the Zhen Wu Dynasty.
However, this was not what Qin Mo wanted to see.
What he was going to do next, if he could have the fear of the court and the fishing boats as the background,
He would be able to do things more smoothly and occupy more time.
"Yes, I am. This subordinate will go down and do it!"
Song Mao immediately stood up and replied.
Since he was 100% loyal to Qin Mo, then no matter what the purpose of Qin Mo's order was, he would execute it without hesitation.
Qin Mo looked at Song Mao's back as he left.
His right hand tapped the armrest lightly as if he was thinking about something.
An hour after Song Mao left, it was about a quarter to nine.
Qin Mo stood up from his chair.
"It's time to go to the palace."
With such a major event happening in the palace last night, some of the important officials of the imperial court had probably already gathered in the palace.
If Qin Mo went today and met the important officials who were secretly loyal to him, he would definitely be able to sense it.
These people might also be thinking of ways to contact him. Instead of waiting for him in the Imperial Residence, it was better to take the initiative to attack.
This way, he could quickly figure out the distribution of his trump cards.
He had to complete the mission as soon as possible and obtain the generous reward.
……
In the Imperial Palace.
At this moment, a side hall beside the Yuan He Hall had already become the temporary meeting place for the officials.
Many important officials of the imperial court were gathered here.
Among them, there were some old ministers from the previous emperor's reign. They usually did not attend court and enjoyed titles. At this moment, they also entered the palace.
"The Zhen Wu Empire, the Great Yan Empire, and the Wu Ling Empire have been enemies for many years.
Was there a shadow of these two empires behind the assassination of the Emperor?”
"Indeed, these two empires and our dynasty are like fire and water. They do have the motive to assassinate our emperor.”
……
"Bullshit!"
"The palace is heavily guarded.
Even if a group of assassins had the intention of killing the Emperor, would they know the way?
"Not only can you sneak into my True Martial Palace, but you can also retreat calmly without leaving any traces."
If Great Yan and the Wu Ling had such a terrifying assassin, would we still be able to stand here and speak?”
"I'm afraid they would have been beheaded long ago!”
"In my opinion, this assassination was not done by the Great Yan Empire's assassins. Instead, it was done by a traitor in our Zhen Wu Empire!”
In the side hall, an old man with a bearded face and a strong build spoke roughly and scolded without any hesitation.
As soon as he finished speaking, the courtiers who had previously speculated that there was a possibility that the Great Yan Empire would assassinate the Emperor suddenly became furious.
Just as he was about to retort, he could only forcefully suppress the anger in his heart when he saw the face of the person who spoke.
He could not afford to offend this person.
This person was the Duke of Liang. He was a subordinate of the late Emperor. He had fought for the Zhen Wu Empire on the battlefield for decades and was conferred the title of Duke.
Now that he was old, he had retired. Usually, his temper was the most fiery, and he wanted to see the truth with his hands if there was any disagreement.
Many of the officials felt a headache when they encountered such a person.
However, his words were crude, but his reasoning was not. Although the other party's words were crude, they made some sense.
