Duan Wenjun didn't feel Zhao Ling'er's sentimentality at all.
He has always felt that this finger-tip marriage thing was unreliable.
There is no emotional foundation, so being together is reluctant.
I don't want to delay such a good girl.
Moreover, from the first time he saw Jiang Shuying, he had already decided that she was the one he was waiting for in this life.
That face seemed to have been seen in a previous life.
Kind and familiar, familiar and nostalgic.
However, his memory was a little fuzzy, and he wasn't quite sure where or when.
It seems that everything is in a dream...
In other words, since I woke up and lived in two lives, I originally just wanted to be a leisurely young master and enjoy life casually.
However, unexpectedly, it seems that after recovering from physical illness, I have been very busy.
I am so busy that I have no chance to think about so many things.
Even busier than the days when I was on missions in my previous life...
He seemed to have some doubts as to whether it was a problem with his horoscope, as he was born with a hard life...
Entering the study, Chai Jingyun was already waiting.
During this time, he often went to Duanjiabao and stayed here for a few days.
Now it is so familiar that it is no different from my own home.
The tea has been brewed and he is pouring it for himself.
Seeing Duan Wenjun walk in, he put down the teacup in his hand and waved to Duan Wenjun, "Wenjun, come and sit! The tea is ready!"
After speaking, he skillfully poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the opposite side of the tea table.
Seeing him so casually, Duan Wenjun was a little doubtful whether this was his study or Chai Jingyun's study.
"Second Young Master, you're fine!" Duan Wenjun smiled and sat down opposite him. "What kind of wind brought you here again today?"
Chai Jingyun always went to the Three Treasures Hall for anything.
I've only been away for a few days and come back, it's definitely not good.
"Wenjun, you used the word 'and' incorrectly!" Chai Jingyun picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, then laughed and said, "It seems like you don't welcome me..."
"How could you? How could you not welcome me!" Duan Wenjun picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "You are a busy man. You must have something to do when you come to see me!"
"It's true!" Chai Jingyun's face suddenly became very serious.
Just as Duan Wenjun guessed, it was indeed not a good thing.
What Chai Jingyun brought was news about Zhang Suxing.
Things seem a bit complicated.
Duan Wenjun was a little confused.
Duan Wenjun felt as if he was listening to a TV series...
Moreover, he was very strange as to why Chai Jingyun told him this and what it had to do with him.
The administration of officials in Jingzhou has always been a big problem.
Emperor Shun once ordered a thorough investigation, but it was not satisfactory.
It was also at this time that Prince Rui's Mansion was ordered to help Emperor Shun investigate in secret.
Several years have passed, and the harvest has not been great.
Prince Rui's Mansion has been keeping an eye on the previous governor of Wangjiang County, Dang Feihong.
However, he clearly knew that he was the most critical link in Jingzhou's officialdom, but he could never find a breakthrough.
In the end, Dang Feihong was still able to retire and return to his hometown, which made Chai Jingyun feel a little unhappy.
In the past few months, he had paid closer attention to the previous cases.
Chai Jingyun had always suspected that Zhang Suxing, who had just been promoted to Lingxiao County Sheriff, was also a member of Dang Feihong like Gongxian County Magistrate.
But, again, no evidence has been found.
Especially, regarding the Moon Island matter, Zhang Suxing was able to persuade Tie Gulu to surrender and disintegrate Moon Island from the inside, which can be regarded as a great achievement.
Therefore, although Dang Feihong was forced to retreat, Zhang Suxing came to power.
Chai Jingyun has always been worried about whether Zhang Suxing will be the second Dang Feihong, so he pays special attention to him.
But he didn't expect that he didn't find anything about Zhang Suxing, but Zhang Suxing came to find him himself a few days ago.
Just as Chai Jingyun guessed, Zhang Suxing was indeed a member of Dang Feihong.
However, he was the Eighth Prince's spy in Jingzhou. He deliberately got close to Dang Feihong and colluded with them.
Why did the Eighth Prince set up his spy in Jingzhou?
That is also very simple. He has also been investigating the affairs of Jingzhou's officialdom.
At the beginning, several imperial envoys came to investigate the corruption of Jingzhou officials. Either they disappeared mysteriously or died suddenly of illness, and no progress was made.
Jingzhou has always been a worry for the imperial court.
You know, Jingzhou is not only an important grain producing area in Dashun, but also an important mineral mining state in Dashun.
This is directly related to Dashun's lifeline.
Although the Eighth Prince does not seem to be involved in government affairs, he is the most trusted person by the Emperor.
Moreover, he was also the person who secretly helped the emperor investigate many important matters.
Except for a few members of the royal family who were valued by the emperor, outsiders were not very clear about this matter.
Chai Jingyun knew.
Zhang Suxing was able to say this, and Chai Jingyun already 90% believed that what he said was true.
However, in these years, Zhang Suxing was just a county magistrate. Although he was highly regarded by Dang Feihong, he did not touch the core of the entire Jingzhou officialdom.
Therefore, after so many years, his gains are not very great.
He knew very well the operating modes of Dang Feihong and Lingxiao County.
He knows how officials collude and how officials and bandits collude.
However, according to the instructions of the Eighth Prince, even if Dang Feihong requested an order to retire and return to his hometown, he remained unmoved.
The purpose is to find out the situation in Jingzhou as a whole.
"After so many years, has he ever looked for you?" Duan Wenjun frowned.
"No, if he had found me earlier, I wouldn't have spent so much energy investigating his relationship with Dang Feihong." Chai Jingyun shook her head innocently, "I wouldn't even suggest to the emperor that he delay the investigation." When Zhudang Feihong returned home, he had already been supported to serve as the governor of Lingxiao County."
"Then why did he look for you a few days ago?" Duan Wenjun became even more confused.
"Because he encountered difficulties and came to seek my help." Chai Jingyun's face became serious. "He hopes that I can help him get out of his current predicament."
Hearing this, Duan Wenjun couldn't help but frown even more tightly, "Second Young Master, it seems that you have something you want me to do!"
"Zhang Suxing is the Eighth Prince's spy. Both the Eighth Prince and Prince Rui's Palace are secretly investigating the corruption of Jingzhou officials. This can be regarded as a secret of the royal family. Second Young Master, you should not tell me."
"You told me, which is equivalent to tying me together. I can't stay out of this matter, right? If I don't care, you Prince Rui's Mansion and the Eighth Prince may not be able to spare me, because I already know If I want to take care of this matter, I have to do it for you, right?"
Duan Wenjun's tone became a little unkind.
He seemed to have guessed Chai Jingyun's intention.
"Wenjun, please don't get me wrong!" Chai Jingyun picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then continued, "You are the emperor's favorite, the baron who was just awarded the title, and you and I are still good brothers. I am absolutely loyal to you." There is no malice. The reason why I tell you so much is because I trust you and hope you can help me. In this Lingxiao County, you are the person I admire and trust the most."
Duan Wenjun doesn't like to play this kind of power play, but as a man of two generations, if he can't see through this kind of power play, his life will be in vain.
However, since Chai Jingyun said so, he naturally didn't want to offend him too much.
Seeing his innocent look, Duan Wenjun couldn't help but feel very unhappy.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip before saying, "Second Young Master, let's not beat around the bush. What exactly does Zhang Suxing want you to ask me to do?"
