"Ah!"
"It couldn't have come at a better time!"
Mu Qingcheng waved his hand and signaled for Du Liufeng to come in. Not long after, Du Liufeng, dressed in black, strode up to the imperial court and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty, Du Liufeng, is here to see you!"
"Get flat!"
"I just heard that your Black Mansion arrested a lot of spies?"
"Exactly!" Du Liufeng saluted respectfully: "The arrest department found the suspicious person in Lan Yue Tower, followed the clues, arrested more than ten people, and found out that Lan Yue Tower is the core stronghold of Yanlong Guard in our country. Qi Lanyue, the leader of Lanyue Tower, is the person in charge of Yanlong Guard in Dali!"
"Now Qi Lanyue has fled, and my subordinates are ordering people to arrest her throughout the city."
"good!"
Mu Qingcheng's expression softened a little, and he threw the battle report in his hand towards Du Liufeng: "See for yourself, I was planning to punish you just now, but now it seems that I have redeemed myself."
Du Liufeng quickly browsed through the battle reports from the front line, and his expression became more solemn: "Your Majesty, my subordinates are preparing to report that this arrest operation is personally led by Shen Yu, the deputy director of our Black Mansion Enforcement Department. ."
"Shen Yu captured Jingzhao Shaoyin Zheng Tu without authorization, please forgive me!"
"Zheng Tu?"
"Why did you, the people in the arrest department, arrest important members of the imperial court without permission?"
"Your Majesty, when Director Shen was arresting Mr. Zheng, Mr. Zheng personally came forward to stand up for Lan Yuelou and threatened the lives and fortunes of the arresting officers in our arrest department. He threatened that we could not afford to offend the people behind him."
"So Director Shen took him down without permission. After interrogation, it was discovered that Zheng Tu was instructed by others to help Lan Yuelou and his party escape from trouble."
"What!"
“Zheng Tu is so brave, he dares to openly protect Da Yan’s work!”
Mu Qingcheng's eyes were full of murderous intent, and she stared straight at Du Liufeng: "Please describe this incident to me in detail."
"In other words, the identities of these details were discovered by Shen Yu from the arrest department?"
"Exactly!"
Du Liufeng's face showed a bit of embarrassment, and he told Shen Yu what he had done in the past two days. Mu Qingcheng's face was full of shock!
"You mean, he just came to Phoenix Tower to take office?"
"It's your Majesty. Counting tonight, it's the second day."
"He arrested six Da Yan fine craftsmen yesterday?"
"Absolutely true."
"Is this Shen Yu in charge of the whole process of taking over the moon tower?"
"yes……"
"Who is this Shen Yu?"
Du Liufeng's expression became even more bitter, but Mu Qingcheng gave him a cold face and said lightly: "You really have to thank Director Shen for showing up in time, otherwise..."
"Your Majesty, I am guilty!"
Du Liufeng's forehead was already covered with cold sweat. He had heard the sounds in the palace just now. If it hadn't been for the Lanyue Tower incident, His Majesty would have really operated on him.
Shen Yu, you are truly a noble person of mine!
"You just said that there is someone behind Zheng Tu?"
"yes!"
Du Liufeng's face showed a bit of solemnity, and he said in a deep voice: "According to Zheng Tu's confession, going to Lanyue Tower to rescue the emergency was an order from Jingzhao Yin Geng Yang. However, Director Shen speculated that Geng Yang was not really behind the scenes. man of."
"hehe!"
Mu Qingcheng laughed angrily and said coldly: "My soldiers on the front line are working desperately for me, but these snakes and rats behind the scenes are still stabbing their own compatriots. They really deserve death!"
"Du Liufeng!"
"My subordinate is here."
"I grant you a handwritten edict to thoroughly investigate the people behind Zheng Tu. All those involved, regardless of official rank, will be handed over to your Phoenix Tower for special interrogation. Anyone who obstructs you can be arrested!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"My lord, I obey the order!"
"Tomorrow, bring Shen Yu to me. I want to see him!"
"yes!"
Du Liufeng was shocked, his face was full of respect, and he silently exited the hall. Mu Qingcheng sighed sadly, she is really exhausted both physically and mentally now!
…
late at night.
In the mansion outside the palace.
Lin Zhengxiang stood respectfully in front of Ning Fan and handed over pieces of information about Dali Court.
"Sir, this is all the information that I, Black Ice Platform, have."
"Nowadays, everyone in Da Li's court is in danger. Some people are secretly working with Da Yan to seek a way out, and some are relying on aristocratic families to solicit money and food."
"The empress cannot support herself alone. If she continues, Dali may not be able to hold on for long."
"Um!"
Ning Fan nodded slightly and said calmly: "How is the war in the north?"
"Da Yan led his army to a surprise attack on Liyang City. This important northern town returned to Da Yan's hands. Xi Xiongtu once again led his army to retreat thirty miles and now guards the Li River."
"Liyang City!"
Ning Fan remembered this important military town in the northern border of Da Li. It was here that Zhuge Liang planned an empty city and became famous all over the world. However, he did not expect that it would now be in Da Yan's hands again.
"Did our men ever provide intelligence to the front line?"
"Sir, although there is an order from above, if we provide information to Dali, our important secret lines in the army may be exposed. Therefore, we can only send it to Dali's general through special means."
"They don't take it seriously?"
Lin Zhengxiang smiled bitterly and nodded, and said helplessly: "Not only did he not pay attention to it, but he also thoroughly investigated the source of the information and wanted to find out all of us."
"That's all."
Ning Fan waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "From now on, we will do our best to collect information about Da Yan. We will report it every day and send it to me..."
"Da Yan's troop mobilization and information on generals in various ministries must be collected."
"promise!"
"Is there any reaction from Xuanjian Pass?"
"Um!"
Lin Zhengxiang nodded and said in a deep voice: "Some time ago, the imperial court ordered Xuanjian Pass to contain Da Yan, so the Duke of Zhen Guo sent troops out of Xuanjian Pass and attacked one of Da Yan's grain and grass trunk lines. It was precisely because of this that he was dragged away. Stop Da Yan's march."
"Otherwise, Da Yan's army might have crossed the Li River long ago."
"Now, I, Xuanjian Pass, have contained Da Yan's nearly 300,000 main force, and also given Da Li a chance to breathe."
Hearing Lin Zhengxiang speak, Ning Fan nodded frequently and said calmly: "Now I am in power at Phoenix Tower. If nothing unexpected happens, I will be promoted again tomorrow. You can arrange for a few smarter people to join me."
"yes!"
"Get down!"
After Lin Zhengxiang left, Ning Fan carefully checked the information he sent, and couldn't help but frown slightly. Today's Dali Court is more complicated and serious than Dayu's in the past.
Various forces are intertwined, especially after a turmoil just now. King Lingyou's rebellion has greatly damaged the empress's prestige. In addition, the northern border has been defeated one after another. Now, that girl Mu Qingcheng may not be able to sleep at night, right?
Do you want to sneak into the palace to meet secretly?
It's a pity that the dog system doesn't allow him to bring people here. Otherwise, he can let the people from the underworld clean up a batch first to relieve the internal and external pressure...
