"How about it?"
"I haven't given up yet, but I'm chasing him even tighter."
"What's going on? Why is he targeting Feiyun Escort Agency?"
"Of course it's because the Night King's child happens to be in Liangzhou and the time is right. He found out about the abnormality in Feiyun Escort Bureau and kept a close eye on it. Two days ago, he also checked the directory of the guards of the Prince's Mansion."
"But don't worry, sir. It's very clean. He won't find anything."
In a dark room, there was a conversation.
After pondering for a moment, the voice sounded again, "This is not the solution. The Night King and His Majesty are so quarrelsome, he will definitely keep pursuing, and he will be afraid of the worst."
"What should we do? Kill him?"
"No, he has only been in Kyoto for a short time, and he has already been attacked twice, especially after the hunting ground. The people above are keeping a close eye on him, so it is impossible to succeed. Moreover, there is the shadow of the Red Lotus Sect behind him."
"Red Lotus Sect? How is that possible?"
"There is nothing impossible. The Holy Lady of the Red Lotus Sect is suspected to be the princess of the previous dynasty. There are many remnants of the previous dynasty around her. She is no longer the rabble she used to be. It is normal to send someone into the court."
"But, His Majesty has betrothed the Seventh Princess to him, if..."
"The imperial edict hasn't been issued yet. Do you know why? It was because of the edict after the hunting ground, but the eldest princess stopped it."
"Princess? Why?"
"This is not yet the case of the Jinling Liu family. The Liu family's trafficking in weapons and armor is suspected of rebellion. Your Majesty does not believe that the Liu family is rebelling at all. How can a merchant rebel? Even if there is a real rebellion, there must be someone behind it. The origins of those weapons must also be clarified. The reason why the case was hastily closed was to facilitate the investigation. The eldest princess has been in charge of this matter. Now it has been found that there is a shadow of the Red Lotus Sect behind this matter, and Lin Qingfeng is the beneficiary of that incident, so it was stopped. Imperial decree.”
The room fell silent again.
As if digesting this information, the voice sounded again after a while.
"If he is really from the Red Lotus Sect, why didn't they tell us?"
"Of course, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better. And it's not important. What's important is that every step he takes seems to have nothing to do with us, but it is all beneficial to us. He used the second prince to deal with the third prince before, but this time It’s also because he chopped off the arms of the second and third princes.”
"When I joined the household department, they used incredible methods to raise funds to protect me, except Feiyun Escort Agency, because only we knew about this matter."
"Yes! So, he is indeed helping us, but he has set his sights on Feiyun Escort Agency, what should we do?"
The voice was silent for a long time, and finally said: "For now, the only way is to get rid of him."
"Spend it?"
"That's right! Let him leave for a while. When this matter calms down, His Majesty's intention is to let him join the Sixth Department one after another. When he comes back, he will probably not be in the Criminal Department anymore, so he won't have the mind to care about it anymore. Moreover, this is also the old fox's plan. Part of it.”
"If the old fox takes action, it will be safe, the Night King..."
"..."
early morning!
The sky is still bright and the morning has begun.
Zhu Tianzheng's face didn't look good. With so many things going on, his mood naturally wasn't much better.
"Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel has been vacant for several days, which has affected the operation of the Ministry of Personnel. I feel that I should confirm the candidate as soon as possible."
"I second the proposal. The deputy commander of the Forbidden Army and the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Department are all waiting for someone to fill their vacancies."
"..."
It is conceivable that there are so many vacancies at once, and they are all in high positions.
For this matter, the court fought openly and secretly.
Although Zhu Tianzheng was not happy, the matter still needed to be dealt with, and he immediately said: "The cabinet will draw up the list first, and then leave it to me to make a decision."
Yan Zhenlin replied: "I obey your order!"
At this time, Guo Wankai, the Minister of Rites, came out and said, "Your Majesty, the letter of alliance with the Wu Dynasty has been confirmed, including the marriage. I wonder if your Majesty has decided which prince will go to the Wu Dynasty to propose marriage. I hope you can make preparations for it soon. It’s time to leave.”
Hearing this, Zhu Tianzheng frowned. How could he be in the mood to care about this during this time.
The last hunting ended only halfway through, and no candidate was decided at all. For a while...
He looked at everyone and asked, "What do you think, dear friends?"
"Your Majesty, I think the third prince is the most suitable. This matter is already led by the third prince, and he is also familiar with the Chu State envoy."
"It's ridiculous. The marriage is of great importance. How can it be decided based on this? The second prince is more suitable."
"..."
Because something went wrong between the Fan family and the Duke of Qin's palace, the second and third princes undoubtedly valued this opportunity more, and the two sides became fiercely competitive.
Zhu Tianzheng frowned slightly, looked at Guo Wankai and said, "When will the Ministry of Rites set off?"
Guo Wankai said: "Your Majesty, in order to have more time on the road, it is best to set off within half a month, and no more than a month at the latest."
Zhu Tianzheng nodded, "I will confirm the candidates within half a month. The etiquette department should first decide on the entourage!"
Guo Wankai said: "We already have a number of ministers accompanying us, and the list will be submitted later. But the most important person, I wonder if Your Majesty wants to keep him?"
Zhu Tianzheng asked: "Who?"
"Lin Qingfeng!"
Guo Wankai said, "Master Lin is very talented. Last time the Wu Dynasty mission was able to finalize the marriage because of Master Lin. This time, the Wu Dynasty will probably make things difficult for us, so among the people accompanying him, Master Lin is the most important." of."
"That's right! Master Lin's mention in Jixia Academy has been regarded as a holy book by scholars, surpassing the Lesser Sage. Having Master Lin as an envoy can just show the morale of the scholars after I leave the court."
"I second the proposal!"
"..."
Everyone is unanimous on this point.
Because going on an envoy is not a good job. Not to mention the tossing and going back and forth on the way, there may be dangers.
Even if the journey is safe, in the Wu Dynasty, if it is not handled well, it will be a loss of national integrity.
Everyone avoided him.
Talented Lin has a good reputation, and he won so beautifully last time. He is a born scapegoat.
Zhu Tianzheng seemed to be hesitant. He looked at Yan Zhenlin, thought for a moment, and then turned to look at Yu Changqing, the right minister, "What do you think, Yu Aiqing?"
Yu Changqing looked drowsy and replied: "Only delicate flowers can grow in the greenhouse, not towering trees. How to decide depends on your Majesty's hopes for Mr. Lin."
Zhu Tianzheng nodded, "Yu Aiqing's words are reasonable. It goes without saying that Lin Qingfeng is talented, but he must be baptized by wind and waves to truly grow."
"I will give him this opportunity to accompany the mission and serve as deputy envoy."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
There was a sudden roar, and the new position of Lin Dacaizi was confirmed.
And he himself was completely unaware of it and was still fishing in the Ministry of Punishment.
What? Investigation?
Of course, the people below are responsible for investigating the case, and it won't be over if the leader just pays lip service. If the leader wants to do it himself, who the hell is the leader?
Keep fishing!
…
Some people died, but not completely...
