After going to court, Xie Xun immediately went to the study.
Several lieutenants and Qin Rushuang were already waiting for him in the study.
Seeing several people sitting there, Xie Xun nodded as a greeting.
Then he talked about the situation in the court today.
"It's almost as we guessed. Those are the people who support the fourth child, and those who support me also showed their cards today."
Qin Rushuang nodded, "It's indeed time to reveal all the trump cards. It would be pointless to hide them anymore at this time."
After saying that, she asked Xie Xun, "If we just look at today's memorial and the intentions of these officials, how confident do you think we are?"
Xie Xun pondered for a while and said: "Qi Cheng."
Then he changed his voice and said: "But the premise of all this is that before my father loses consciousness, he must first make the decision to change the crown prince. If he has not made a decision before, he will
He has already lost his mind, or something unexpected happened... It’s hard to say all this. If I’m not wrong, then the great eunuch has some friendship with Xie Yang.”
Qin Rushuang frowned, "I'm also afraid that when my father is gone, the eunuch will join forces with Xie Yang to control the situation in the palace and falsify the edict."
Xie Xun smiled mockingly.
"The edicts are false, the oral instructions are false, and you can think of all the possible ways they can reverse the situation. When the time comes, don't expect the fourth child to be an upright gentleman."
Hearing what Xie Xun said, Qin Rushuang frowned even more.
"We still worry too early. Until the last step, no one can say who will ascend to the top position in the 95th Five-Year Plan."
Xie Xun murmured: "It's my fault. It's because I decided to seize the throne too late. I didn't have time to arrange a few more people around the fourth son. Now the informants around him haven't been able to penetrate into his staff, so it's up to us."
"Yan, I'm still too passive..."
Xie Xun just said it casually, but Qin Rushuang suddenly had a thought in her mind.
The person closest to Xie Yang...
She does know one.
After several lieutenants left, Qin Rushuang still sat there without moving.
Xie Xun saw it and asked, "Do you have anything else to say to me?"
Qin Rushuang had a rare hesitation, and after a while she said: "I do have a card in my hand, but I don't know if this card should be used..."
Xie Xun said: "You can talk to me first. It is better for two people to work together to find a solution than to work alone here."
Qin Rushuang thought about this and said to Xie Xun, "Do you still remember Xie Yang's concubine Lin?"
Xie Xun nodded and said, "I remember. Lin's updates were also reported to me by an informant. Lin is now drifting away from the fourth child, but..."
Xie Xun's voice paused before continuing, "But she is the fourth child's concubine after all. I know what you value is the power of Mr. Lin Ge behind the Lin family."
"But at most they can remain neutral, which is the best result I can predict. If you want Lin Ge to become old enough to switch sides with us... it's impossible."
Xie Xun shook his head and repeated, "It's impossible. Mr. Lin Ge loves Lin's daughter so much. If the fourth son loses, how will Lin cope with himself? Even if it is for this daughter, he will not express his support clearly.
we."
Qin Rushuang nodded and said, "I know what the prince said. I am not trying to win over Mrs. Lin. What if I say... I know a piece of news that will make Mrs. Lin hate Xie Yang to the bone?"
In a few words, she told Xie Xun the news she knew.
After hearing this, Xie Xun said to Qin Rushuang: "This is a good card, but I also know your scruples. You are also a mother now. It is inevitable to hesitate when doing these things. I will not force you, you just need to obey."
If you think you can do it with your own heart, then go for it."
Qin Rushuang murmured in a low voice, "Do you think... Lin's nature is really as good as what Mr. Lin Ge taught her? Is she a better mother than a prostitute?"
Xie Xun knew her concerns, nodded and said, "As I said before, follow your own heart in everything."
Qin Rushuang took a deep breath: "Okay, I understand. Your Majesty, just wait for the news from me."
After Qin Rushuang came out of the study, she hurriedly got into a carriage and rushed to Qingzhi's mansion.
She hasn't seen Qingzhi for a long time, but now she doesn't have so much time to reminisce with Qingzhi.
After seeing Qingzhi, Qin Rushuang asked straight to the point, "How is that woman I asked you to stare at before, and the child in her hands, how are they doing now?"
Speaking of this, a look of anger appeared on Qingzhi's face.
"Princess, I thought that when a woman becomes a mother and a strong mother, she must love her children the most in the world, but...but that woman is really!"
The woman Qin Rushuang asked Qingzhi to stare at was a beauty from the former residence of the fourth prince Xie Yang.
Before Lin's miscarriage, Xie Yang was really ridiculous for a while.
Fortunately, several women came to visit one night. Apart from the woman who was forced to drink a bowl of abortion pills and lost her child by Mrs. Lin, there was actually a beauty who was also pregnant with Xie Yang's child.
Xie Yang was shocked by Mrs. Lin's hot look at that time. He did not dare to leave this beauty in the house, so he secretly ordered someone to send the beauty back out.
Because he did not dare to offend Mr. Lin Ge, Xie Yang allowed the woman to give birth to the child outside.
He should have given the woman a lot of money, but the woman didn't know what she was thinking. After giving birth to the child, she went back to the brothel to pick up customers, and didn't care about the child she gave birth to.
Qingzhi said with a look of distress in his eyes.
"The woman returned to the brothel after giving birth. Maybe it was inconvenient to live in a brothel with her child, or she lived in the small house that Xie Yang bought for her. I ordered people to go and take a look around the house from time to time. One day
I actually heard a child crying from inside."
"The man was really worried by the child's cry. He secretly went in and took a look. The child was crying so hard that his face was blue! He was so thin and small! It seemed that he hadn't come back to feed the child milk all day. You said he was so small?
My child has not had a drop of water for a day, what a cruel mother must be to do such a thing!"
Qin Rushuang is now a mother, and just hearing what Qingzhi said made her feel heartbroken.
She thought for a while and said to Qingzhi, "If this child follows this woman, he will definitely not have a good life in the future. He may not even be able to live and grow up, but that woman is his biological mother after all... Qingzhi, what do you think... 4
The prince's concubine, Mrs. Lin, how is she?"
Qingzhi recalled it and said: "I didn't have much contact with her, but she had a good reputation before she came out of the cabinet. After she got married, I heard that she was very peaceful in the back house. I met her a few times and she was a very good person."
A kind person.”
After Qin Rushuang listened, she whispered: "I know..."
"This child is really pitiful. I want to save his life. I hope he won't hate me in the future..."
