It seems like he suspected that the matter of his wife just now had angered his little brother.
He did not hide anything from Yan Jue and poured himself another cup of tea. After taking a sip, he asked: "Do you know about the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?"
"Of course I do."
Yan Jue replied snappily, "Could it be that Sixth Brother found out about this from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets? I heard that if you want to obtain any information from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, you not only need to have enough money, you also need to see whether the Pavilion Master is happy or not.
Yan Xiao would definitely be able to hear the sarcasm in Yan Jue's tone. This brat, how did he get his wife involved, it was as if he was being stabbed.
"You don't have the ability to be your sixth brother?"
Yan Xiao's eyelids twitched lazily as he replied carelessly, "Not only can I get this information from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, I can get all the information that I want from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets."
Although they were from the royal family, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was still a legendary existence. Even if the Kaiser was willing to give them information, they wouldn't be able to do anything if they didn't want to.
The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets possessed the world's most powerful and complicated information network. Its scope was vast, but because it connected north, south, east and west, it was truly because of such a powerful information network. Thus, anyone who wanted to know the identity of the Pavilion Master was first known by the people from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets before they could investigate the Pavilion.
This was the reason why so many people had wanted to meet the Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, but had never been able to do so.
If the news of Sixth Brother really came from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, then there wouldn't be any problem with the credibility. The problem lay in —
What right did Sixth Brother have to have the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets follow him? Did he think that he was the Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?
In the next second, he spoke out his thoughts with utter contempt, "You think you're the Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets?"
Back then, when his mufei was so ill, how much money and materials did he spend to get the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets to search for his sixth brother's whereabouts? He had completely ignored everything and finally, even the imperial brother sent out his royal decree, yet he could not even find the 'den' of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
Thinking about it, Yan Jue felt extremely infuriated.
His gaze swept towards Yan Xiao, and saw that he did not refute him, but had a faint smile on his face as he played with the teacup in his hand.
"It can't be? "You really …"
He suddenly stood up from the chair, Yan Xiao's tacit agreement had proven his conjecture.
"You really are that bastard Pavilion Master from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets!"
Yan Jue angrily rushed forward, grabbing onto Yan Xiao's sleeves, he almost wanted to punch him in the face.
"No wonder mufei was so sick back then. We couldn't find you no matter how hard we tried!"
When Yan Jue mentioned the late emperor's grand concubine, both of their expressions darkened. Soon after, the two brothers sunk into a short period of silence.
At that time, the Imperial Concubine died. Yan Xiao did not return to the capital, which was also the biggest regret between the Imperial Concubine and Yan Xiao.
At that time, Yan Xiao felt jealous that the imperial concubine had killed Qin Shuang, so when she died, he didn't even return to the capital to see her for the last time. Now, ten years had passed, yet it had become the most unspeakable regret and guilt in his heart.
After a while, Yan Xiao opened his mouth and said: "I'll go see mufei sometime."
Yan Jue glanced at him, and then sighed with melancholy, "However, don't blame yourself. He is the son of mufei after all, she won't blame you."
Yan Xiao nodded his head silently, and did not continue with the previous topic, "Regarding the matter between xieqing and himself, we still need to further grasp some information, so it is not suitable for us to make any big movements right now."
Yan Jue nodded his head, since this Sixth Brother of his was the Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, then the information he had obtained from him was nothing to be suspicious of.
Suddenly, Yan Jue thought of something, he looked at Yan Xiao and said: "Why is the Nanling colluding with the xieqing, I heard Old Jiu say before, that he had saved the life of Prince Duan, and Prince Duan also said, as long as he is in the Nanling, he will never be an enemy of the Easternum, could it be that the famous Duke Duanren would go back on his word?"
Although the Easternum was not afraid of the Nanling or the xieqing, at the moment, the political situation of the Easternum was not stable. In the past, the Shen Ji Hall had always been causing trouble everywhere, and later, there were always a few unsettled vassal lords who wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble.
"Qin Xuan probably doesn't know about this matter yet. According to the evidence that I have, Qin Xuan could also be one of the targets that the Tomb Emperor wants to deal with."
"You said that Nanling is still thinking of dealing with Qin Xuan?"
A flash of astonishment appeared in Yan Jue's eyes, "According to what I know, after the crippled crown prince died that year, this current Kaiser was pushed up against him by Qin Xuan with his bare hands.
Yan Xiao bit on the corner of his lips, a trace of ridicule flashed past his eyes, "Don't you understand the principle of a dead rabbit? Back then Qin Xuan had the ability to bring down the crippled Crown Prince and the current Kaiser, so it is only natural that he had the ability to make the current Kaiser step down. But once he has taken the position of Kaiser, the more power he wields, the less courage he would have. With his current status in the Nanling, he is completely capable of pulling the Kaiser down from the throne.
Yan Jue thought that this made sense, after all, no one was as bold and confident as Ah Shuo, and they were all so friendly to their uncles.
In the royal family, most of the Kaiser should be like the Mausoleum Emperor, but his family, Ah Shuo, was very rare.
Yan Jue thought of his nephew from the Kaiser and praised him in his heart.
Yan Xiao put down the teacup and said, "The matter of the xieqing allying with the Nanling will not progress too quickly. With the Mausoleum Emperor making a few big moves, it will be extremely difficult for him to avoid Qin Xuan, because once he discovers that Qin Xuan is going to intervene, the Mausoleum Emperor will have to suffer for a period of time. We don't have to rush to deal with them for now, the most important thing right now is to resolve the two big problems the Shen Ji Hall and Wei Shao are in."
"That's right, we can't delay any longer after dealing with these two big problems. Ol 'Nine and I have already planned …"
Yan Jue explained his previous plan to Yan Yuan in detail.
On the second day after the Eighth Prince was released from prison, word spread that the theft of the spring exams had been coordinated by the remnants of the previous dynasty's organization, the Shen Ji Hall, to allow their own people to infiltrate the imperial court and disrupt the order.
This matter, especially among the examinees, had a huge impact. Many people began to curse at the Shen Ji Hall and the King Wei angrily.
