In fact, the easiest way to ruin this marriage was to kill the Crown Prince, Brother Ning. However, this kind of simple and crude behavior was not Song Qingshu's style. Of course, he was more concerned about the sequelae after the Crown Prince's death.
After thinking about it, the safest way was to let the Xixia people have their own problems. According to the intelligence, Brother Ning had been the Crown Prince for many years, while Li Yuanhao's body was getting stronger and stronger. There was no sign of him dying. Since ancient times, it was easy for the father and son to have problems. Besides, Li Qianshun, Prince Yi, and Li Liangzuo were watching covetously from the side. Brother Ning's position as the Crown Prince was not stable.
All he needed was a gentle push, and the other forces would help him complete the next task.
And if he wanted to ruin the Crown Prince's position, it was far from enough to simply flirt with Princess Liao. After thinking about it, Song Qingshu focused on the Crown Prince's mother's family.
Previously, Zhao Min had explained in detail that the Xixia military was united by tribal leaders. Half of the army was controlled by the tribal leaders, and the Yeli Family was the largest tribe. At the same time, the Yeli Family was the Crown Prince's mother's family. If something happened to them, the Crown Prince's position would be lost.
Moreover, he could take advantage of this opportunity to not only ruin the Crown Prince's marriage, but also cause the collapse of the Xixia military's first person. The whole Xixia would be greatly weakened, and it would be unable to fight against foreign enemies. At the same time, the power structure would be reorganized, which meant countless opportunities.
He had made a plan, and it had been quietly launched. Now everything was ready, except for the east wind.
After comforting Yelu Nanxian, Song Qingshu was about to leave, but he was pulled by a pair of small hands. He looked back and found the girl looking at him pitifully, "Don't go."
Originally, he thought it was not convenient to be too intimate with her now that the Crown Prince was with them. But seeing her appearance, he knew that because of the Crown Prince's appearance today, she was in a state of fear and helplessness. Suddenly, he didn't care about anything else. He sat down and said, "Okay, I'll stay here with you."
What he got in response was the girl's soft body and sweet red lips …
Then, the envoy group and the Crown Prince's team headed toward the Spiritual State. Learning from the previous painful lessons, Crown Prince Ning became much more restrained. However, from time to time, he would glare at Song Qingshu from a distance with resentment.
Song Qingshu did not take it seriously, but Shangguan Xiaoxian was a little excited. "I didn't expect men's sixth sense to be so accurate. Crown Prince Ning seems to know that you slept with his fiancée. He hates you from the bottom of his heart."
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Yelu Nanxian gave her a good smack on the head. This was a sensitive matter, being teased by her own maid, no matter how thick her nerves were, she couldn't take it.
Song Qingshu was also speechless. He had just mentioned the term 'sixth sense' two days ago, and this little girl had learned it so quickly. Her brain was really bright. It was a pity that she became a maid.
And so, the entourage arrived at the Spiritual State City with ulterior motives. The Western Xia sent out a grand welcome party, but the Emperor Li Yuanhao did not come. The other important officials such as Ye Li Yuanqi also did not come. It was clear what the Western Xia's real attitude toward this marriage was.
However, Song Qingshu was happy to be free and not have to deal with a lot of red tape. Next, the entourage was settled in a hotel in the city. Originally, the Western Xia wanted to take over the defense, but Song Qingshu stood up and said that since the marriage was not official yet, the princess naturally had to be protected by the warriors of Great Liao.
The Western Xia had no choice but to compromise. The Western Xia's imperial guards would protect the periphery, while the Liao warriors would protect the envoy group from the inside.
After settling Yelu Nanxian down, Song QingShu said to her: "I'm going to investigate the Mu Mansion tonight. After all, the Crown Prince's backer is the Mu Mansion. I'm going to investigate them and see if I can find anything useful."
Yelu Nanxian nodded. This matter was related to her happiness, so of course she would not stop him. However, she was still a little worried, "What if the Crown Prince comes looking for us again?"
Song Qingshu handed her a whistling arrow, "Don't worry, I have ordered the warriors to not let him in. If he tries to force his way in and you can't stop him, just release this whistling arrow. I will come back as soon as I get the signal."
"Okay." Yelu Nanxian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her nervous expression, Song Qingshu couldn't help but laugh, "Did you forget that you are also a martial arts master? Although that Crown Prince Ning is not weak, he is not a martial arts master either. You can beat him with one hand, what are you afraid of? "
Yelu Nanxian was startled, but then she laughed, "It's all your fault. You made me look like one of those girls in Jiangnan who can be blown away by the wind."
"What's my fault?" Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, thinking that although he often tormented her to the point where she couldn't even get out of bed, he shouldn't have made her so weak.
Noticing his ambiguous gaze sweeping over her body, Yelu Nanxian immediately reacted and pouted, "What nonsense are you thinking? I'm saying that you and Heaven Mountain Tonglao's martial arts are too high, in front of you, it's like I don't know any martial arts at all, making me lose my confidence, I can't change my role."
Song Qingshu finally understood, smiling sheepishly, "Don't worry, there aren't many martial arts masters like you in this world, you won't be so lucky to run into one."
"Look at how smug you are." Yelu Nanxian snorted, "When we get through this, you have to teach me martial arts, I don't want to be protected by you all the time."
Song Qingshu knew that she was somewhat of a martial arts fanatic, he couldn't help but tease her, "Haven't I already taught you martial arts?"
Yelu Nanxian was confused, "When did you teach me?"
Song Qingshu moved closer to her ear, smelling the fragrance of her hair, he whispered, "Does martial arts in bed not count as martial arts?"
Yelu Nanxian's jade-like skin instantly flushed red, she was about to hit Song QingShu, but Song QingShu ran away quickly, quickly disappearing outside the door, "I'm going to take care of business …"
"You're so annoying!" Yelu Nanxian bit her lip, her mind unconsciously replaying the romantic scenes from a few days ago, her face became even redder.
Song Qingshu had already found out the location of the Mu Residence during the day. In fact, even if he didn't, it would have been easy to find because the Mu Residence was the largest building in Spirit State City after the Imperial Palace.
Mu Yuqi was the Great General of the Western Xia, his residence was naturally heavily guarded, but unfortunately, it was useless against a cheat-like existence like Song Qingshu.
Silently sneaking in like an owl, Song Qingshu was mainly looking for places like the study room or the bedroom, because these two places were often the easiest to obtain information.
As he searched, he secretly pondered. Before, he heard Mu Wanqing mention that her mother, Qin Hongmian, seemed to have married into the Mu Family, but he didn't know who in the Mu Family she married.
It was no wonder that he was curious, because the concept of a family in this world was often different from that of the future. In the future, the family would have a few brothers and sisters, but in this world, the family was synonymous with a huge clan. Who knew how many brothers and descendants there were, from dozens to hundreds, to thousands.
The Mu Family was the most powerful family in the Western Xia Country, with a large population, so naturally, no one knew which branch Qin Hongmian married into.
"Forget it, let's get busy with the marriage first." By this time, Song Qingshu had already found the study room, and the lit candlelight inside indicated that there was someone inside.
"Just in time!" Song Qingshu was delighted, and hurriedly hid under the eaves. At his level of martial arts, he no longer needed to peek or stick his ear to the wall. At this distance, the conversation of the person inside could not be hidden from him.
"Second Brother, why did you agree to that Envoy Song?" An anxious voice sounded in the room.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. From the tone of the person inside, it should be Mu Yuqi's brother, Mu Wangrong. The two brothers were in charge of the left and right armies respectively, and were both given the title of 'King'.
Of course, what concerned Song Qingshu was not him, but the Envoy Song mentioned by the other party. Could it be that his plan had already worked?
"Big Brother, why are you so flustered? I only promised to surrender to him to deceive him. The Song people are rich, isn't it good to get more wealth from them? It would be a waste not to deceive him." Another teasing voice sounded, and it should be the Great General Mu Yuqi.
"But I still feel that something is wrong." There was a hint of worry in Mu Wangrong's voice, "The Song people are cunning, it is hard to guarantee that there is no trick in it."
"Are you worried that the Emperor will find out? Don't worry, I'm not stupid. Outside this door, who has ever admitted to making a promise to the Song people? He has no proof, "Mu Yuqi said proudly," Speaking of which, I am also helping you vent your anger. A few days ago, you sent your trusted aide Lang Zai to surrender to the Song people, but he was seen through and killed. This time, we can deceive the Song people and swindle their wealth, then kill the envoy. Wouldn't that be great? "
Mu Wangrong also laughed, "You're still the scheming one!"
Song Qingshu was eavesdropping when the sound of thieves suddenly came from the courtyard. Mu Wangrong suddenly exclaimed, "It can't be that Envoy Song's doing, right?"
"Let's go to his room and see if he's still there!" Mu Yuqi clearly had the same worry. Soon, two burly men with "Mediterranean" hairstyles hurried out from inside.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat, and he used his lightness skill to rush towards the source of the commotion. From afar, he saw a black figure hiding from his pursuers. With his exceptional eyesight, Song Qingshu used the faint moonlight to recognize that the figure was Lin Pingzhi.
In a flash, he appeared beside him and grabbed his shoulder, "What are you doing?"
Lin Pingzhi was about to counterattack, but when he saw that it was him, he was overjoyed and quickly explained, "Brother Song, I followed your plan and pretended to summon the Mu brothers to surrender. As expected, they agreed immediately, but they did not take any action. Thus, I planned to steal their waist sabers as a keepsake, but I didn't think that the manor would be so heavily guarded, so I was quickly discovered."
"Did those guards see your face clearly?" Song Qingshu hurriedly asked.
Lin Pingzhi shook his head, "No, I was masked the entire time."
