Mo Xiuyuan followed the commander’s “Instructions”and began to tell Qin Zhengxiao’s forces about Qin Zhengxiao’s death bit by bit.
He could not tell all of his forces about Qin Zhengxiao faking his death. It was very likely that one of them would be the commander’s men. They all knew that among their men, there would definitely be the other party’s men, which was why they were so careful, they were afraid that the other party would find something to use against them.
In the morning.
Mo Xiuyuan told one or two of the officials who held important positions individually.
This was something that Mo Xiuyuan was certain that Qin zhengxiao would absolutely not tell them.
These two people were only considered important positions, but they were not Qin Zhengxiao’s trusted aides.
Mo Xiuyuan was first persuaded by those so-called supporters of Qin Zhengxiao, which meant that they were actually people who were not very important to Qin Zhengxiao. These people were easily swayed and usually succeeded, his purpose of following Qin Zhengxiao was also to use Qin Zhengxiao’s identity to manage his own relationship. As long as there were important people who had dealings with Qin zhengxiao, he had long been secretly close to them through Qin Zhengxiao’s relationship, he had a close relationship with the other party.
Rather than helping the commander-in-chief convince his subordinates to betray Qin Zhengxiao, it was more accurate to say that he was actually building a bridge for himself. It looked like he was persuading them not to be loyal to Qin Zhengxiao. To be more precise, he was asking them to follow him......
In name, they were just following the commander-in-chief.
They were not stupid. Having been in the officialdom for decades, they more or less knew the way of officialdom. They also knew that without a backer, it was actually suicidal to follow their former sworn enemy. When the limelight passed, they might be executed for a crime they did not commit before they could react, now, they were only pretending to be harmonious to stabilize the political situation. As long as Qin Zhengyang consolidated his power, they would definitely die!
Therefore, when Mo Xiuyuan told them to pretend to be obedient but actually follow him, at least the two officials did not refuse.
Even if they did not dare to trust Mo Xiuyuan, it could be considered as leaving a way out for them to wait and see.
Mo Xiuyuan took care of the two officials because there were actually people around him who were secretly following him. Of course, they could not participate in his negotiations. However, if he met those people in the past few days, they would be the first to know, naturally, he would report the progress of every place he went and explain the situation.
The commander should not only have him pull a portion of them back into his regime temporarily, but more importantly, he should want to know clearly through Mo Xiuyuan that Qin Zhengxiao’s power.., those people were helping him in the dark.
But to put it bluntly, these officials were only a supporting role.
The ones who could really assist Qin zhengxiao were the Southern Defense Xun family.
The military power of this family was not low.
In addition to Qin Zhengxiao’s reputation among the officials and the people for so many years, if there really was a direct conflict, Qin Zhengxiao could be justified.
Mo Xiuyuan came out of the officials’office somewhat tired. After he called Qin Zhengyang to explain the situation, he prepared to go back to his apartment to rest. He was in a hurry now, so he could not be sure if the commander-in-chief had died for a long time.., perhaps he would die tomorrow. Once the commander-in-chief passed away, Qin Zhengxiao would immediately come back to attack Qin Zhengyang. With his slogan of usurping the throne, he would directly pull Qin Zhengyang down from his high position. And the plan that he had planned for so long, the insurance plan.., would increase the risk factor.
Mo Xiuyuan returned to his apartment.
He closed the door and windows. He pulled open a corner of the curtain. His eyes were constantly scanning his surroundings. There were indeed many spies around him.
These spies, some from Qin Zhengxiao, some from the commander.
