"Master Shen, you are indeed very confident in dealing with the traitor Ye Mingsheng!"
In the Antai Inn, Wang Muzhi praised Shen Jianzhong excitedly:
"When Ye Mingsheng saw your list of names, his expression was extremely ugly. When dealing with such ambitious people, this method should be used to destroy their prestige!"
When Wang Muzhi said this, he could be said to be very happy. Although he looked down upon the orthodox military generals who used evil methods and evil tactics, but compared to the Supervision Department, he was even more disgusted with them. Ye Mingsheng, a treacherous person who betrays the imperial court and plots evil...
Therefore, seeing the treacherous and cunning Ye Mingsheng reduced to a state of disgrace and embarrassment by Shen Jianzhong's methods, he felt so happy!
Although Ye Mingsheng cannot be captured immediately to serve as a warning to others and to enforce military discipline, as long as soldiers and horses can be mobilized from Ye Mingsheng to support the Changqing Mansion, it will also be a great achievement and can greatly relieve the Zhenwu Army from facing Song Wenhui's men. The pressure from the Liaoyang army.
Compared with Wang Muzhi's happiness, Shen Jianzhong looked very calm, even vaguely worried. He had no reaction to Wang Muzhi's praise, and his eyes seemed to be thinking about something... ·
Seeing Shen Jianzhong like this, Wang Muzhi was a little surprised. He instinctively thought that Shen Jianzhong was like this because he thought about the master-disciple relationship with Ye Mingsheng, and he couldn't bear it, so he pondered for a while and said:
"Master Shen, this Ye Mingsheng brought it upon himself, you don't have to feel sorry for him... If this kid knows his situation and surrenders his military power, I can help you plead with Commander Chen to spare this kid's life. I am destined to only send him and the young and old of the Ye family as slaves!"
After hearing Wang Muzhi's words, Shen Jianzhong came back from his thoughts. He shook his head and said:
"Master Wang, you misunderstood! Although we were masters and disciples, but now he has done such ungrateful and unethical things. The relationship between masters and disciples between me and him has long since disappeared. He was cut to pieces with a thousand swords." , he deserves to be quartered by five horses!"
Wang Muzhi nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, clapped his hands and praised: "Master Shen understands righteousness and is worthy of being the pillar of the country! It's Wang who is worrying too much."
"Well, the only thing I'm worried about now is whether Ye Mingsheng will obey..." Shen Jianzhong said with some worry:
"Oh? Mr. Shen, these three moves of yours are aimed at Ye Mingsheng's life gate. Can Ye Mingsheng be able to change the world?" Wang Muzhi said very relaxedly:
Shen Jianzhong shook his head and said:
"Master Wang, you don't know something. This thief, Ye Mingsheng, can endure what ordinary people cannot, and his reaction today is very abnormal. If he is really forced by me into a desperate situation, then he will definitely come to me. I’m begging for mercy, instead of just serving tea and sending guests away to drive you and me away!”
While saying this, Shen Jianzhong couldn't help but recall what Ye Mingsheng said to him at the end. Did Master Shen have no room for negotiation?
Thinking of Ye Mingsheng's expression when he said this, a hint of worry appeared in the depths of Shen Jianzhong's eyes...
"Master Shen, I think you are worrying too much. In my opinion, Ye Mingsheng is very angry. Maybe he will come and apologize to Master Shen tomorrow!" Wang Muzhi said with a smile;
Seeing that Wang Muzhi was so confident, Shen Jianzhong reluctantly nodded and said, "I hope so!"
After talking about Ye Mingsheng's affairs, Wang Muzhi, the chief commander of the Zhenwu Army's combat affairs, discussed with Shen Jianzhong, the spy chief, the frontline military situation in Changqing Mansion for a while. When the two of them had almost reached an agreement, they prepared to return separately. Room for rest.
There was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the door. Hearing the footsteps, Shen Jianzhong frowned slightly and asked:
"What happened?"
"Sir, it's about the sparrow!" Shen Jianzhong was personally guarding him, and Cao Xin whispered outside the door:
Upon hearing the word "sparrow", Shen Jianzhong's expression changed and he replied in a deep voice:
"Come in!"
With Shen Jianzhong's permission, Cao Xin immediately pushed the door in. He originally wanted to report directly to Shen Jianzhong, but when he saw Wang Muzhi sitting beside him, he not only showed a hesitant look on his face, but also looked at Shen Jianzhong inquiringly.
Seeing this situation, Wang Muzhi was certainly not a fool. Although he felt a little unhappy, but thinking of the military emergency and the overall situation, he immediately wanted to get up and leave, leaving the room to Cao Xin and Shen Jianzhong.
However, what surprised him was that before he could stand up, Shen Jianzhong said to Cao Xin:
"Master Wang is not an outsider, you just say it doesn't matter!"
Hearing what Shen Jianzhong said, Wang Muzhi, who wanted to leave, also set his sights on Cao Xin. To be honest, he was quite curious about what the news was...
After receiving Shen Jianzhong's permission, Cao Xin no longer had any scruples and said in a deep voice:
"The sparrow is back! It's in the inn now!"
Upon hearing the news, Shen Jianzhong asked with a hint of anger in his eyes:
"How dare she come here without asking? Does she know what she is doing?"
"Sir, according to what she said, she is carrying very important information, which must be presented to you immediately! It is related to the life and death of the Zhenwu Army!" Cao Xin continued to add:
Shen Jianzhong was a little stunned when he heard this, and then asked after thinking about it:
"Did she say what the intelligence was?"
"I asked and she didn't tell me. She just told me that she had to meet the adults in person!" Cao Xin introduced:
"Bring her in!" Shen Jianzhong pondered again and said:
"Yes!" Cao Xin took the order and left.
Taking advantage of Cao Xin's departure, Wang Muzhi, who was sitting on the sidelines and listening with confusion, asked Shen Jianzhong:
"Master Shen, who is this sparrow?"
Perhaps realizing that his sparrow had been exposed, Shen Jianzhong did not hide his answer to Wang Muzhi's question:
"She is a maid I placed in Ye Mansion, codenamed Sparrow!"
"That's it!" Wang Muzhi nodded, and began to pay some attention to this sparrow in his heart. He heard clearly just now that Shen Jianzhong's men said that the information brought by this sparrow was related to the life and death of the Zhenwu Army. This is very interesting...
A moment later, a petite, charming-looking girl wearing black night clothes walked into the room. The little sparrow looked at Wang Muzhi, who was sitting in Shen Jianzhong's seat, and looked instinctively repelled, with his eyebrows slightly wrinkled!
He saw Ma Jiao's reaction in his eyes, but Shen Jianzhong didn't care what she was thinking and asked directly:
"What information did you get from Ye Mingsheng?"
Upon hearing Shen Jianzhong's inquiry, Ma Qiao took out a letter from his arms, mustered up the courage to approach Shen Jianzhong, and cautiously tried:
"Sir, this slave sneaked into Ye Mingsheng's study and got this letter... The Ye family slave can't go back. Sir, can you let the slave leave?"
Looking at the letter in Sparrow's hand, Shen Jianzhong smiled and said:
"Of course! You have made such great contributions to the Inspectorate, I will not only restore your freedom, but I will also find you a good family to marry to, so that you can be an official wife and have enough food and clothing in your next life!"
Listening to Shen Jianzhong's promise, a smile finally appeared on Ma Qiao's face, and he presented the letter in his hand to Shen Jianzhong with both hands.
"Thank you for your sympathy, sir. I am so grateful for your great kindness. I will never forget it in this life!"
She is an orphan who was adopted and trained by the Supervision Department since she was a child. The meaning of living in this world is to become a pawn and be used by the Supervision Department. Almost a year ago, after Ye Mingsheng confirmed that he would be transferred to the Zhenwu Army and took up his post, he looked charming. And she was still a virgin because she was personally selected by Shen Jianzhong and placed in the Ye Mansion as a spy...
The task Shen Jianzhong gave her was to convey Ye Mingsheng's every move back to her. It would be best if she could climb into Ye Mingsheng's bed and become Ye Mingsheng's woman. However, it was a pity that Ye Mingsheng was busy with official duties during this time and did not have much Time is obsessed with beauty.
Secondly, Jinyu, who was born as a maid, knew the thoughts of the maids in the house very well, so in order to reduce the possible love rivals, she kept a close eye on them and did not change the fate of these maids, including Sparrow. , the opportunity to stand up and be the master.
Although she is just a chess piece, Sparrow also wants to change her destiny. She wants to live a peaceful life, instead of being afraid every day that her identity will be discovered and punished.
So she has been looking for an opportunity to change, and three hours ago, when she realized that this was going to happen, she mustered up the courage to seize this opportunity with all her strength!
Grabbing the letter handed over by Sparrow, Shen Jianzhong quickly took out the letter paper. As soon as he read the content on the letter paper, Shen Jianzhong turned to one side and his expression became very ugly...
After a cup of tea, Shen Jianzhong put down the letter and asked the sparrow with his eyes closed:
"How did you know about this letter?"
"Replying to your lord, this servant eavesdropped on the conversation between Ye Mingsheng's concubine Jinyu and the old lady of the Ye family. She found out that the old lady's natal family wrote a letter to Ye Mingsheng! The slave realized that the matter was of great importance and just infiltrated into Ye Mingsheng's house. I stole this letter from my study!"
"What else do you know?"
"My servant also heard that the cousin of the old lady of the Ye family visited her during this period. This family letter may have been sent by that person. Other than that, I don't know. Please forgive me!" Sparrow He said respectfully:
"I understand, you go down and have a good rest!" Shen Jianzhong opened his eyes, an undetectable color flashed deep in his eyes, but he still said calmly:
"Yes, slave, please leave!"
The sparrow did not doubt that he was there, and after giving a blessing salute to Shen Jianzhong, she turned and left. However, she never expected that before she took two steps, Shen Jianzhong hit her in the back with a palm. The violent internal force immediately broke the little girl's heart.
A mouthful of bright red blood gushed out from the mouth of this girl who harbored hope for a peaceful life in the future. Without any unnecessary struggle, she fell softly, completely lifeless...
She was personally selected by Shen Jianzhong and sent to Ye Mingsheng's side. In the end, she died in the hands of Shen Jianzhong. Shen Jianzhong's story can be regarded as having a beginning and an end!
"Master Shen, what are you doing?"
Seeing this sudden scene, Wang Muzhi, who was sitting aside, looked at Shen Jianzhong with some vigilance.
Shen Jianzhong wiped his hands and said in a deep voice:
"It's nothing, I just helped this girl. Ye Mingsheng is so cruel and cruel that she can't handle it!"
"Master Shen, what are you talking about?" Wang Muzhi still didn't respond. Shen Jianzhong asked in confusion as to what he was doing:
Shen Jianzhong handed the letter to Wang Muzhi, and then said solemnly:
"Master Wang, do you know who wrote this letter to Ye Mingsheng?"
Hearing Shen Jianzhong's question, Wang Muzhi glanced at the content of the letter, and his eyes gradually became more confused. In his opinion, the letter was not signed, but according to the tone of the letter, it should have been written by an elder, Ye Mingsheng.
There is nothing important in the content of the letter. The entire letter is concerned with Ye Mingsheng's health, his plans to get married, and how Ye Mingsheng's mother is doing. In short, it is just some family matters.
Wang Muzhi really couldn't understand how such an ordinary letter from home could make Shen Jianzhong, the spy chief, so nervous...
Looking at Wang Muzhi's confused application, Shen Jianzhong couldn't help but sigh. This Wang Muzhi was a first-class general when he marched and fought, but in terms of political sensitivity, he was probably a little better than ordinary people. !
Thinking of this, Shen Jianzhong stopped letting Wang Muzhi guess and gave the answer directly, saying:
"Although this letter is not signed, if the handwriting is not unexpected, it should be written by Cui Shao to Ye Mingsheng. He is the cousin of Ye Mingsheng's mother and Ye Mingsheng's uncle!"
"Cui Shao is a wily man, and he believes that the Cui family is powerful. He knows that no matter who wins in the end, he must rely on the Cui family if he wants to rule Liaoyang!"
"So no matter how Song Wenhui and Mr. Chen tried to induce him, he remained unmoved and did not support any party. He has been standing still, waiting for the final winner to appear, so as to maximize the interests of the Cui family!"
"In order not to make Song Wenhui jealous, Cui Shao deliberately kept a distance from Ye Mingsheng and left Ye Mingsheng in the cold. But now at this critical moment, why did he write this family letter to Ye Mingsheng? To show his kindness to Ye Mingsheng?"
“And the most important thing is that this family letter mentions Ye Mingsheng’s marriage!
"Ye Mingsheng is having a fierce fight with An Miaoyi, the witch from the An family, and they are going to get married soon? And Cui Shao is An Miaoyi's uncle, and An Miaoyi lives in the Cui family now!"
"Master Wang, do you know what all these means?"
As soon as Shen Jianzhong's question arose, he said helplessly and melancholy without waiting for Wang Muzhi to think about it:
"It seems that Cui Shao is unwilling to be left alone and will lead the Cui family to the end!"
