Yin-yang Zi watched as Li Shimin's carriages left. He walked quietly on the street, ignoring the curfew of Chang 'an City. He went straight to a mansion and entered without any hindrance.
"School of Yin-yang has come to visit so late at night. I wonder what's the matter?" In the secret chamber, Wu Yuanshuang stared vigilantly at the white-haired Taoist in front of him.
According to the records of the Zi Qian family, once the School of Yin-yang appeared, there would not be many good things. How could Wu Yuanshuang not be vigilant when they suddenly came to the Zi Qian family?
"Don't worry. The School of Yin-yang and the Zi Qian family are both hidden branches. We have always cooperated. I'm here to give the Zi Qian family a good fortune." Yin-yang Zi said loudly.
"A good fortune?" Wu Yuanshuang looked at Yin-yang Zi suspiciously. He did not believe that Yin-yang Zi would be so kind.
Yin-yang Zi went straight to the point. "Young Master Wu, have you heard of the love story of Qiu Qian that was spread all over Chang 'an City?"
"Of course I've heard of it. Who would have thought that an abandoned daughter of the House of Duke would be chosen by Prince Jin? This stinky girl really wants to be a phoenix." Wu Yuanshuang said with hatred. He did not think that Wu Meiniang would meet Mo Jiazi first, and then be chosen by Prince Jin. If he had known, he would have left her in the Martial House. Then he could have become a relative of the Emperor. Wu Family would have a bright future.
"This is the good fortune that the School of Yin-yang wants to give to Young Master Wu. They want to give the Zi Qian family a way to follow Prince Jin." Yin-yang Zi continued.
Wu Yuanshuang was shocked. He cupped his hands and asked Yin-yang Zi for advice. "Old immortal, please teach me."
The Ziqian family has been having bad luck recently. The Mo Magazine first reported the greed of the Ziqian family, which made many people avoid the Ziqian family like snakes and scorpions. Later, the courier station and the bank of the Village Mo family kept expanding, eating into the Ziqian family's market. The Ziqian family was struggling and urgently needed to climb up the royal family. The Crown Prince could not give up the courier station, and His Royal Highness Prince Jin was the best choice.
"The love story of Qiu Qian that you know is popular in Chang 'an was spread by Prince Jin. In fact, Wu Meiniang did not like Li Zhi, Prince Jin. If you come to help Prince Jin at this time, you will fall into Prince Jin's trap."
"There's such a thing? However, Wu Meiniang has already betrayed the Martial House. Relying on the fact that she is the Head Disciple of the Mo Family, she doesn't even place me in her eyes. If I try to persuade her, I'm afraid it will only backfire. " Wu Yuanshuang said with some fear. Today, Wu Meiniang was no longer the weak little girl who could be bullied. She was the famous Eldest Senior Sister of the Mo Family. Back then, Wu Yuanqing was defeated by the Mo Family's revenge. He did not want to repeat the same mistake.
"As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. Now that Brother Wu has passed away early, the marriage of the Wu Family's children will naturally fall to you. You can make the decision and betroth her to Prince Jin." Yin-yang Zi suggested.
Wu Yuanshuang's eyes lit up, but then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Old Immortal, you don't know. Prince Jin has a good relationship with the Mo Family. How can he not know about Mei Niang's background? As an elder brother, how can I be more useful than Mo Jiazi, a master? I'm afraid it will backfire."
Wu Yuanshuang naturally knew that if he rashly decided on Wu Meiniang's marriage, not only would he not please Prince Jin, but he would also offend Mo Jiazi. Now, the last person Wu Yuanshuang wanted to provoke was Mo Jiazi.
"An elder brother may not be enough. What if Wu Meiniang's biological mother also agrees to this marriage?" Yin-yang Zi said confidently.
"You mean the remnant of the previous dynasty!" Wu Yuanshuang's eyes lit up. In fact, the reason why Wu Yuanshuang risked universal condemnation to drive Madame Yang and Wu Meiniang out of Duke Ying's Mansion, other than fighting for the position of Duke Ying, was because of Madame Yang's identity. The Wu Family was the descendant of the previous dynasty's royal family, and Wu Meiniang had the blood of the previous dynasty flowing in her veins. This stain was used by people with ulterior motives, causing the Wu Family to be marginalized and slowly squeezed out of the core of the Tang dynasty. For this reason, the Wu Brothers thought it was Madame Yang's fault, so they took the opportunity to drive Madame Yang and the three Wu sisters out of the mansion to show their loyalty to the Tang dynasty.
"But she hates the Wu Family. How can she join hands with them?" Wu Yuanshuang shook his head.
"She hates the Wu Family, but at the same time, she is also a mother. Wu Meiniang is nearly 20 years old. An ordinary woman would already be filled with children. How can Madame Yang not worry about her daughter's marriage, let alone a good match like Prince Jin?" Yin-yang Zi said with a smile.
Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but think of a plan. Madame Yang, the remnant of the previous dynasty, was very stupid. He only needed to bait her a little and she would most likely take the bait.
"Old immortal, thank you for your advice." Wu Yuanshuang said excitedly.
"Young Master Wu, it's too early to be happy. The marriage between Wu Meiniang and Prince Jin is only the first step. With the relationship between Wu Meiniang and Young Master Wu, I'm afraid that it's not enough for the Ziqian Family to climb up to Prince Jin. If they want to obtain this good fortune, they will have to pay a great price." Yin-yang Zi said with a hidden meaning.
Wu Yuanshuang's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Yin-yang Zi and asked, "You mean to imitate my father and do what Lu Buwei did?"
One of the things that Lu Buwei was most proud of was investing in the King of Qin. In the end, he became the Prime Minister of the country and pushed the School of Miscellany to the peak. And Yin-yang Zi's meaning was to let the Ziqian Family invest in Li Zhi, Prince Jin.
Yin-yang Zi nodded and said, "Young Master Wu's move is more thorough than your mother and Lu Buwei. Your mother used all the money of the Ziqian Family to support the Retired Emperor. In the end, no one in the palace was alienated. Similarly, no one in the palace was killed. Wu Meiniang is, after all, a woman. She still needs the support of the Wu Family. When the time comes, the Wu Family will be able to do whatever they want in the Tang dynasty."
Wu Yuanshuang thought of this possibility and couldn't help but feel excited. However, he pretended to be calm and said, "The School of Yin-Yang thinks so highly of Prince Jin."
Yin-yang Zi proudly said, "Prince Jin has the aura of the Son of Heaven."
Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but tremble. The School of Yin-Yang was an expert in the Way of Fate. However, he still didn't act recklessly. He shook his head and said, "This alone is not enough."
Yin-yang Zi knew that if he didn't show his true ability, Wu Yuanshuang wouldn't be hooked at all. He immediately said seriously, "The current Emperor is in his prime, and Crown Prince Li Chengqian is already an adult. Since ancient times, few people have been able to sit on the Crown Prince's throne. Since the Emperor Wei, Li Tai, gave up the throne after establishing the new Hundred Schools. Prince Jin, Li Zhi, became the candidate for the Crown Prince's throne. If the Crown Prince makes a mistake and Li Chengqian repeats what happened to Crown Prince Li, then Prince Jin, Li Zhi, is most likely to ascend the throne."
Wu Yuanshuang nodded slightly, agreeing with this reasoning. This was almost the same as the information from the Ziqian Family.
"However, now that the Crown Prince is close to the Mo Family, it has already caused dissatisfaction among the Five Families and Seven Princes. In addition, the Crown Prince made a mistake in the grassland battle. The Crown Prince's position is unstable. Prince Jin, Li Zhi, has a chance." Yin-yang Zi said with a dignified expression. As a member of the School of Yin-Yang, he had his own secret channels and actually obtained the inside story of the grassland battle in advance.
"There is such a thing?" Wu Yuanshuang's heart skipped a beat. This time, the Ziqian Family's information was outdated. They actually didn't know about such a big thing.
"Don't worry about the School of Yin-Yang's information. Besides, even if Prince Jin, Li Zhi, becomes a prince in a peaceful era, you won't lose out!" Yin-yang Zi said lightly.
Wu Yuanshuang nodded slightly. One was his sister who was kicked out of the family. In exchange for a social connection with Prince Jin, it was a good deal.
"Mei Niang! My good sister, don't blame your brother for acting on his own. This is for your own good! "Wu Yuanshuang said in his heart.
