Chapter 13 There is only one furnace of materials

Wu Meier really wanted to take the blame for the Prime Minister, but Zeng Qingfeng shook his head and said:

"It is not enough to convict the prime minister based on a private letter, and it is not enough to convict Marshal Mu. If pressed, the two of them will rebel in advance. The military power is still in the hands of Marshal Mu."

Having said this, he paused before continuing:

"Nowadays, there are many members of the prime minister's party in the court. Even some neutral factions are inextricably related to Marshal Mu and the prime minister. The biggest role of this private letter is not to convict them, but to deprive Marshal Mu of his military power.

When the time comes, let him and the prime minister dare not refuse."

"My husband is really considerate of things, but I am too impatient!"

Wu Meier admitted when she was wrong, and also understood that dealing with the prime minister could not be done in one go.

The most optimistic outcome is that even if the evidence is conclusive and the Prime Minister and Marshal Mu are successfully captured, after all the officials related to them are captured, the entire government will be paralyzed!

Zeng Qingfeng gave Wu Meier an encouraging look and said softly:

"Madam, don't worry, my husband will help you! Let's defeat them one by one first, and after placing important positions in the important positions, it will be much easier to deal with the prime minister."

Ouyang Xiu also said with deep approval:

"Brother Zeng is right. The prime minister has been in power for many years and has already matured. We must take a long-term approach! In addition to replacing a large number of officials, dealing with the master in the prime minister's office is also a headache."

"That master in the Prime Minister's Office is nothing to worry about!"

Zeng Qingfeng's words made both Wu Meier and Ouyang Xiu look at him curiously, and he said without waiting for them to ask questions:

"There is also a Tao Enlightenment master in Chang'an City that I can win over. When I am free tomorrow, I will go and visit him. Maybe he will give me face and join forces with Brother Ouyang to deal with that master in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Hearing this, Wu Mei'er also remembered what Zeng Qingfeng had said before that there were at least three enlightenment masters in Chang'an City.

But what she didn't expect was that Ouyang Xiu asked:

"Brother Zeng, are you talking about that hunchback on West Street?"

"Exactly!"

Hearing Zeng Qingfeng's affirmative answer, Ouyang Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"Brother Zeng, this guy doesn't have a good impression of the royal family. The woman he loved was killed by an official. He killed the official's family in a rage. Later, he sneaked into the palace and wanted to kill the late emperor. I'd better force him to retreat.

Let him go."

"It's pretty good that he doesn't hate his siblings now. How could he listen to you and your siblings to help deal with the prime minister? Brother, you don't know, he lives in Chang'an City, and I worry every day that he will assassinate his siblings."

Hearing this, Wu Meier said with some emotion:

"It turns out, brother Ouyang, you have helped us so much secretly, please accept Mei'er's respect."

As she said this, she wanted to pay a courtesy to Ouyang Xiu. Before, she was angry at Ouyang Xiu for not giving him face and not obeying his orders.

Unexpectedly, I have been under his protection since the late emperor, and I feel ashamed when I think about it.

Ouyang Xiu quickly stopped her and said:

"Brothers and sisters, don't be so polite. I have been greatly favored by your grandfather, and it is my duty to protect you."

Zeng Qingfeng saw that both of them had become so polite, so he interrupted and said:

"Okay, since we are all our own people, don't be so polite. Let's talk about our plans for tomorrow."

He successfully changed the topic so that both of them were no longer embarrassed and began to focus on discussing the details of tomorrow.

By the time the discussion was over, the relationship between the three of them had improved a lot.

Wu Mei'er is not as restrained as before. She knows very well that it is her husband's contribution to Ouyang Xiu's lack of airs.

After the two said goodbye to Ouyang Xiu, they awkwardly walked out of the attic not far away. Wu Meier couldn't help but ask:

"Husband, how many secrets do you keep from me? If you say you know how to calculate and know some secrets that others don't know, forget it. But isn't Brother Ouyang's attitude towards you too good?"

Zeng Qingfeng had already thought of an excuse, so he said very calmly:

"My master and brother Ouyang's master are on equal terms, so I have an advantage and can be on equal terms with brother Ouyang."

"oh?"

This is not impossible. After all, the lifespan of a monk is related to his strength, and many old monsters only accept a closed disciple when their life span is about to end, so Zeng Qingfeng's words made her believe it.

But she always felt that something was not right, so she could only change the topic and asked:

"What you mean is that you and Brother Ouyang have known each other for a long time?"

"No, madam, you should have heard from the eunuchs in the palace that I went to the harem for a walk, and in fact I went to recognize brother Ouyang."

"Husband, it seems that you are really my lucky star. It's great to have you!"

Wu Meier's suspicion immediately dissipated, because the eunuch who had given Zeng Qingfeng clothes and tokens had indeed reported that the emperor had gone out for a walk.

Presumably he had recognized Ouyang Xiu at that time. If he knew Ouyang Xiu, this husband would be more trustworthy.

Zeng Qingfeng took the initiative to talk about it, so she no longer had any doubts in her mind and could only lament that this husband was her lucky star.

"Thank you, madam. I should do something for you as much as I can."

"Husband, you are so kind! I will reward you well tonight."

"Isn't this not good? After all, you just did it last night"

the next day.

Zeng Qingfeng got up early in the morning, but Wu Meier got up earlier than him to go to court, so he could only shake his head and start getting dressed.

Now that I have decided to help Wu Meier, I can't just be lazy.

After getting dressed, he walked to the harem and soon arrived at Ouyang Xiu's attic.

Ouyang Xiu, who was practicing, sensed Zeng Qingfeng's arrival, immediately ended his practice and went out to greet him.

"Brother Zeng, why are you here so early?"

"Brother Ouyang, of course I am here to help you refine the elixir. Just bring the medicinal materials and I will make the elixir for you now. We will discuss the next action plan after Meier goes to court."

"Brother Zeng, although you are a seventh-grade alchemist, I only have one batch of medicinal materials."

When Ouyang Xiu said this, he was very worried that Zeng Qingfeng would be angry. After all, he wanted to help him refine the elixir, and he was worried about the failure rate, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

But it was very difficult to collect the medicinal materials for Xuan Bing Ling Dan, so he had to remind him.

Zeng Qingfeng smiled lightly and said confidently:

"Brother Ouyang, don't worry. If you want me to refine a perfect Xuanbing elixir, I can't guarantee it, but I'll have no problem just refining a furnace of top-grade Xuanbing elixir."

Hearing this, Ouyang Xiu was overjoyed and quickly took out the herbs on his body and said to Zeng Qingfeng:

"In this case, there is Brother Lao Zeng! From now on, the affairs of you and your siblings will be my business. As long as I can help, I will have no objection!"

He made this promise before the elixir was successfully refined, which meant that Zeng Qingfeng could rest assured that even if he failed to refine it, it would be fine.

Zeng Qingfeng nodded slightly, said nothing more, and walked into a room alone.

Ouyang Xiu walked around anxiously. Although he was mentally prepared for failure, if possible, he certainly hoped that Zeng Qingfeng would succeed in refining it.

Just as long as a stick of incense had passed, Zeng Qingfeng walked out of the room.
