Coming out of Chai Jingyun's barracks, Mo Shoucheng frowned, "Wenjun, are you really going to Moon Island?"
Duan Wenjun nodded, "I really have to go there. I thought about it carefully, and it's worth the risk for more than a thousand free young and strong workers."
"Do you really want to persuade him to surrender?" Mo Shoucheng asked again, "Do you think Zhao Dachui will surrender?"
"There is no absolute certainty." Duan Wenjun shook his head, "But with Zhao Xiaowu here, I am at least 80% sure, or even more."
"Why are you so sure?" Mo Shoucheng frowned.
"Because Zhao Dachui doesn't want Zhao Xiaowu to die." Duan Wenjun smiled, "Maybe there will be some secrets in their brothers."
"What if Zhao Dachui just wants to leave the old Zhao family behind?" Mo Shoucheng frowned.
"That's what I say, but with Zhao Xiaowu's temperament, do you think he will listen? If he knew that Zhao Dachui was in trouble, he would definitely find a way to save people, or go directly back to the island to die with Zhao Dachui." Duan Wenjun shook his head. "But he stayed in Duanjiabao in a behaving manner. I asked him to follow me to find Zhao Dachui, but he was still a little hesitant. This is definitely not normal."
"When you said that, I remembered it." Mo Shoucheng said thoughtfully, "Dou Xiaoqi said that Zhao Dachui announced on the island that Zhao Xiaowu was already dead when he came out to assassinate you."
"He was guarding against Li Deming. I have always felt that Li Deming is the most dangerous person on Moon Island." Duan Wenjun's face became extremely solemn. "Perhaps Li Deming is just after the secrets on Moon Island." Go."
"Do you have any other basis?" Mo Shoucheng asked again.
"No, it's just a feeling." Duan Wenjun shook his head, and then changed the topic, "Old Mo, have you ever thought about why Gust Wind established a stronghold on Moon Island back then?"
Mo Shoucheng shook his head, looking confused.
He felt that Duan Wenjun always thought too much.
Xiufeng is a bandit. If a bandit sets up a stronghold somewhere, he can just follow his pleasure. How can he know?
"When Gust Wind established a stronghold on Moon Island, there were no other bandits on many islands on the Fushui River. Just like Dongshi Island next to it, the conditions were better than Moon Island." Duan Wenjun did not wait for Mo Shoucheng's answer, but analyzed it by himself. stand up.
"I heard that Xiufeng once served as a soldier and was promoted to General Pi due to his military merit, so he should have a certain amount of military knowledge."
"But Moon Island is not suitable for farming. Secondly, the transportation is not very convenient. The most important thing is that when the government troops attack, once the landing is successful, there is almost no danger to defend. This is definitely not a place to settle down. Good place."
"However, a gust of wind chose this place, which is really puzzling. There must be something fishy in this."
Mo Shoucheng's brows furrowed again, "So you think the reason why Xiufeng established a stronghold on Moon Island has something to do with the secret of the Zhao brothers?"
"I just made a guess. We need to confirm it ourselves later." Duan Wenjun frowned. "If we let Zhao Dachui know that it was Li Deming who betrayed Moon Island for the sake of thousands of his subordinates, it would not be unreasonable for him to surrender directly." Possible things. Zhao Dachui surrendered, and we had the opportunity to question him slowly."
"How do you know that Li Deming is from the imperial court?" Mo Shoucheng frowned. "If he was from the imperial court, how could he kill so many people in Gongxian County Government?"
"If I say yes, then that's it. If he doesn't, he has to be." Duan Wenjun smiled.
Mo Shoucheng was confused.
Immediately, he thought of Wang Xiaoming's accomplice again.
Duan Wenjun said that he said that Wang Xiaoming had an accomplice, that is, he had one, and then Luo Liangping went to Linlang Town, Gong County.
I just don’t know, what’s his idea this time?
Mo Shoucheng didn't ask again, and Duan Wenjun didn't explain too much.
He smiled, looked at Mo Shoucheng and said, "Old Mo, this time we go to Moon Island, there is another big thing, and you must help me do it."
"What's the matter?" Mo Shoucheng was stunned when he heard this.
"We'll talk about it when we get back." Duan Wenjun looked around warily and said nothing.
…
Wangjiang County, Lin family, side house.
The tea on the stove was already boiling, but the few people around the stove were completely unaware.
Lin Zhengying, the head of the Lin family, handed the letter in his hand to everyone to read, and frowned, "What do you think?"
During this period of time, he had been feeling very unhappy.
He originally thought that the Lin family could be considered the richest man in Wangjiang, and was more than a point or two richer than the Duan family.
He originally thought that the Lin family would be able to suppress the Duan family from now on, just like Duan Daxiong always suppressed the Lin family back then.
However, he never expected that Duan Wenjun, the playboy of the Duan family, seemed to be a completely different person after he woke up from his injury, making the Duan family suddenly become a hot spot in Wangjiang City again.
Duan Wenjun can write poems and compose poems, and Duan Wenjun can make new wines and dishes. In fact, Lin Zhengying thinks this is nothing.
No matter how powerful Duan Wenjun is, he will not be able to make the Duan family rise rapidly and compete with the Lin family again.
After all, now that he is rich and powerful, coupled with his status as an imperial merchant, this is definitely not something that the current Duan family can compare with.
However, he never expected that Duan Wenjun would actually hook up with the palace.
Lin Zhengying was not very clear about the background of the second son of Prince Rui and who the eldest princess was, but his partner-in-law Wang Quanzheng, who was an official in Shangliang, was not clear about it.
Wang Quanzheng told him that Chai Jingyun, the second son of Prince Rui's palace, was the eldest princess's favorite nephew.
The eldest princess is in charge of purchasing for the entire palace.
In other words, the qualifications and transactions of all royal merchants are under the control of the eldest princess.
Therefore, Lin Zhengying was a little panicked.
He felt that when Duan Wenjun was in trouble, he did not help the Duan family. Instead, he added insult to injury and found someone to deliberately lower the price and take over a lot of the Duan family's property. The Duan family and his son must know it.
Although Duan Daxiong seemed to be frustrated, Lin Zhengying felt that he might not let it go.
Now, although it seems that the relationship between the Duan family and the Lin family is not as close as before, Lin Zhengying knows that it has actually reached the point of tension.
It's just that no one was too specific.
Although Lin Zhengying didn't care about what Lin Jingyun and Lin Jinglei were doing outside, he still knew about it.
Both of his sons seemed to have suffered at the hands of Duan Wenjun.
This means that in the competition between the descendants of the Lin family and the Duan family, the Lin family is still weak.
However, whether it was reciting poems and writing poems or fighting over food, drink and fun, Lin Zhengying felt that it didn't matter.
That's just a matter of anger among children.
But if the Duan family gets involved with Prince Rui's Mansion and the eldest princess, he will have to make long-term plans.
If the Duan family gave the eldest princess some eye drops and cut off her status as an imperial merchant, then the Lin family's business would shrink by nearly half.
This is not what Lin Zhengying is willing to bear.
Therefore, he must have a good relationship with the Duan family.
Then, he thought of Lin Shuer.
Lin Shuer is the apple of Lin Zhengying's eye, and he loves her very much.
Hold it in your hand for fear of flying, hold it in your mouth for fear of melting.
Lin Zhengying dotes on her far more than his three sons.
Lin Zhengying knew what her daughter was thinking.
Lin Shuer has liked Duan Wenjun since she was a child.
However, Duan Wenjun was too dandy before, so Duan Daxiong mentioned the marriage between the two families several times, but Lin Zhengying was always vague and declined.
Now, the Lin family needs to ease the relationship with the Duan family, and Duan Wenjun seems to be much more successful than before.
Therefore, Lin Zhengying felt that it was most appropriate to propose the marriage between Lin Shuer and Duan Wenjun at this moment.
He knew about Duan Wenjun and Jiang Shuying.
Although Jiang Shuying was born a geisha, she was still a disciple of Qin Feng, a great scholar of the time, so he lowered his dignity and agreed that Lin Shuer and Jiang Shuying were equal wives.
Lin Zhengying also knew that Duan Daxiong had appointed a concubine for Duan Wenjun in Duanjiapu, and he didn't care.
After all, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Therefore, before Wang Quanzheng went to Duan Daxiong to protect the media, the two of them studied it carefully.
Moreover, they all agreed that the Duan family would never refuse such a good thing.
He never expected that everything would be beyond their expectations...
