Chapter 16: The storm is coming(2/2)

If the Jinwu Guard could be replaced by his own people or someone who could be bought, the chance of King Qing rebelling would be much higher.

It happened that Song Mo was neither the one from King Qing, nor was he a person who could easily bribe him.

However, Zhu Jianshen's intention was to pave the way for the prince to succeed to the throne, and severely refuted the opposing ministers.

His son Song Mo was in a high position, but the British Duke Song Yichun had no joy on his face, and a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Just the day before Qin Hao and Dou Zhao went to the fiefdom to get a vassal state, something happened to the British Duke's mansion. The British Duke's wife, Jiang Huisun, the sister of former Duke Dingguo Jiang Meisun, suddenly passed away.

Song Mo rushed home to attend the funeral overnight, but had an affair with a maid that night. British Duke Song Yichun submitted a memorial, accusing Song Mo of having sex with his maid during his biological mother's mourning period, which was against human ethics and filial piety, and requested that Song Mo be deprived of the title of British Duke.

This matter soon became well-known, and Zhu Jianshen had to deal with it carefully, so he could only put Song Mo in prison first and send someone to thoroughly investigate the matter.

Dou Zhao said to Qin Hao in confusion: "Song Mo doesn't seem to be someone who can do such a thing."

"If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. The British Duke Song Yichun won't be able to succeed in his literary talent. He was able to inherit the title by marrying Jiang Huisun. On the surface, the two seemed to be harmonious, but judging from Song Yichun's attitude towards Song Mo, he had no friendship with this deceased wife. Otherwise, even if Song Mo really had an affair with the maid, how could he make his family's ugly public?"

"And don't you think it was too coincidental when Song Mo had an accident?"

Dou Zhao widened his eyes: "You mean suspicion. Song Yichun has defected to King Qing?"

"There is rumors that Song Yichun loves his second son Song Han very much. Perhaps he had wanted to kick away the stumbling block of Song Mo and let Song Han inherit the title. However, due to Jiang Meisun's power, he did not dare to do so. Until this time Song Mo blocked King Qing's path, the two hit it off."

Dou Zhao was a little reluctant for a moment: "Didn't Song Mo still owe you a favor? If you are destroyed like this, wouldn't it be useless to have your previous plans?"

"No, Song Mo is just a young hero who cannot be beaten. Besides, the guilt of his father for Jiang Meisun's death has nowhere to be compensated. He will protect Song Mo, the position of the commander of the Jinwu Guard, is probably a different person."

Qin Hao hugged Dou Zhao's slender waist: "These are not things we should care about. Tomorrow we will go to the fiefdom and the vassal states, so let the storm in this capital come more violently."

The next day, the King of Qin took the Princess of Qin to Shaanxi to take the vassal state.
