On that Mid-Autumn Festival night.
It's on the eighth floor of Sihei Tower in the Imperial City.
Changsun Jinghong and Wang Zhengjinzhong had a conversation.
He said there was a box buried under the crooked neck tree.
If I leave the Imperial City Division one day and don't return for five days, you can dig out the box under the tree.
You will naturally understand the reason for my arrangement.
I hope you and your son Wang Zhenghaoxuan will follow Li Chenan to the death, no matter what difficulties they face!
Changsun Jinghong died in Huaishan County just over a month ago.
Wang Zhengjinzhong is very busy these days, because Li Chenan has made earth-shaking changes to the Imperial City Division.
As Li Chenan's most trusted person, Wang Zhengjinzhong wanted to clean up the house while conveying Li Chenan's requirements to the Imperial City Division to the commanders everywhere.
As well as the tasks assigned to the Imperial City Division by Li Chenan.
Today, he was supposed to take Li Chenan out of the city, but Li Chenan refused.
So when he was free, he remembered what Changsun Jinghong once said, so he dug out the box under the crooked-neck tree.
There is a stack of paper in the box.
The handwriting on the top is the latest, probably written not long before Changsun Jinghong left the Imperial City Division.
"Wang Zheng Jinzhong:
Seeing this letter means that I am dead.
It's time to die too.
What I want to tell you is that Li Chenan is not the eldest son of the emperor!
The emperor's eldest son is still alive. If Li Chenan does not welcome the emperor's eldest son back to the palace and ascend the throne as emperor, if Li Chenan proclaims himself king...
Now you and your son should have gained his complete trust. Kill him. Ningguo belongs to the Ning family.
Fundamental, immutable, root, unchangeable, Queen Lu’s last order... cannot be violated!
Take this letter and give it to Zhou Zheng, and order him to lead the Xuanjia Battalion to welcome back the emperor's eldest son, and then join forces with Xia Yunhu to enthrone the emperor's eldest son as emperor!
Xia Yunhu did not betray the Imperial City Division, but was an undercover agent sent by me. "
Wang Zhengjinzhong opened his mouth in shock. Only then did he understand why Changsun Jinghong wanted to protect Li Chenan even if he and his son risked their lives!
It turned out that the purpose was to gain Li Chenan’s absolute trust!
The reason is that if Li Chenan chooses to ascend the throne as emperor, he can be easily killed!
Now he and his son Wang Zhenghaoxuan have indeed become Li Chenan's most trusted people, but Li Chenan has not ascended the throne as emperor... Even if Li Chenan does ascend the throne as emperor, will this be successful?
That kid is very good!
Whether it was dealing with people or things, let alone these days in the palace, he was working hard to plan and worry about the future of Ningguo.
Besides, if the imperial city becomes more colorful, it will indeed look better than the dark and monotonous color.
As for Xia Yunhu...he has been away from the Imperial City Division for nearly a year. Where is he?
Could he have also secretly trained an army?
Wang Zhenghaoxuan swallowed and turned to the next page. He was suddenly shocked again:
"On March 3rd, when I went to Guangling City, in addition to Duke Cheng and his grandson Cheng Zhe, there were also Qi Zhixue from the Duke of Qi's mansion, and Hua Manting.
Duke Cheng Guo did not go out in Zhongli Mansion.
Cheng Zhe and Qi Zhixue went to attend the literary party held by Zhongli Ruoshui to recruit marriage partners through literature.
These two are both teenagers and cannot be Xi Wei.
Then there is only one person left!
He is full of flowers!
What is the purpose of Hua Manting going to Guangling City?
Does Li Chenan's entry into Kyoto have anything to do with him?
But no matter what, the first thing that made Li Chenan famous in Kyoto was Hua Manting's vigorous promotion after returning to Beijing!
I suspect that Hua Manting is Xi Wei!
I also suspect that Wu Xichen went to Yue State because he was bewitched by him!
I also suspect that Hua Manting knows Li Chenan's true identity... What does this old guy want to do?
Twenty years ago, Xiao Mantou entered Kyoto and was attracted by Hua Manting's knowledge. Could that child of Xiao Mantou be Hua Manting's son?
The old guy was extremely alert, I even doubted that he knew martial arts!
In any case, we have to test it out and monitor Hua Manting's movements closely.
I thought that if he wanted to control the soldiers coming from Changle Palace for the Kyoto coup he had been planning for a long time, he would definitely go to Huaishan County!
I then went to Huaishan County to meet him. In addition, I had to let Mr. Ding Da leave. "
Wang Zhengjinzhong was in disbelief.
Mr. Ding Da?
Didn't he die long ago?
The great Confucian scholar Ning Guo of Taiyuan College was full of flowers, and Changsun Jinghong actually suspected that he was Xi Wei!
Didn’t it mean that Xi Wei was also dead?
Golden cicada escapes from its shell?
If Xi Wei is not dead, if he is really Hua Manting, if Miss Xiao next to Li Chenan is really Hua Manting's daughter...
Xi Wei clearly could have completely captured Kyoto and occupied the imperial city, but he did not do so.
He completely handed over the fruits of victory to Li Chenan, and the owner of Wanxi Zhai happened to come to Li Chenan when Li Chenan went to Shuangjiao Mountain to suppress the bandits...
Li Chenan didn't know Xi Wei at all, but Li Chenan was Hua Manting's old friend, and the two had a very good relationship as both teachers and friends.
If Xi Wei is Hua Manting... Hua Manting gave Li Chenan this easily accessible country of Daning, which seems to be well explained.
It may be a coincidence that Miss Xiao appears next to Li Chenan, because Miss Xiao doesn't know who her father is.
But Xi Wei is a huge danger if he lives!
Therefore, in order to nip in the bud, someone should be sent to Taiyuan University to monitor Hua Manting's every move.
"Somebody come!"
Wang Zhengjinzhong roared loudly, and Jinglang ran over quickly.
"grown ups!"
"You go to Taiyuan College now to look after Hua Lao Daru!"
Jing Lang was startled, and Wang Zheng Jinzhong said again: "Remember, just watch, and watch in secret."
"I obey my orders!"
Jing Lang flew away, and Wang Zheng Jinzhong was about to continue looking at what was written on the rest of the paper. At this moment, Nian Chengfeng came over.
He closed the small wooden box as if nothing had happened, placed it on the tea table, bowed his hands to Nian Chengfeng, and said with a smile:
"Sir Nian, why do you have time to come to this place?"
Nian Chengfeng looked around, and his eyes fell on the crooked-neck tree. After looking at it for a moment, he suddenly said:
"Does the Imperial City Secretary know about those rumors in Kyoto?"
"Sir Hui Nian, the Imperial City Secretary has long known that the official wanted to use some methods, but... the regent stopped him."
"The regent said that rumors only stop with the wise. He also said that he behaves uprightly. If the Imperial City Secretary really arrests those who spread rumors, it will panic the people and make the people of the world think that he is really capable. The desire to steal the country.”
"He said...go your own way and let others tell you."
"Look, what can I do?"
Nian Chengfeng suddenly became speechless. He pondered for a moment. This matter was really tricky.
If it is a blow, it will really make the people have a lot of daydreams.
But if there is no crackdown, first of all, it will have an impact on the reputation of the regent, and secondly, it will give excuses to those who are interested.
How to do it?
"I think we can't let it go, so..."
"This rumor is most likely spread from the mouth of Taiyi Lao Niubi. The Imperial City Siduo should continue to trace the whereabouts of Lao Niubi. In addition... pay attention to the changes in the world."
"The regent left Beijing for Shuzhou. I'm not worried about any mutiny. What I'm most worried about is the assassination of him by martial arts masters!"
"Although there are masters around him, and even though there are a hundred warriors from the Xuanjia Battalion, if people from the Jianghu unite... it will be a powerful force."
"So the Imperial City Secretary will pay attention to whether any new gangs are born in the world. Also, the White Clothes Alliance has been depressed for so long. Their main force was dispersed in Kyoto, and where are they now?"
Wang Zheng Jinzhong bowed his hands and said, "I will arrange for someone to do it now!"
"Hmm...Has Zhangsun Hongyi, the granddaughter of Zhangsun Jinghong, come back?"
"My lord, Changsun Hongyi is on her way home and will return to Beijing in the near future."
"Tell me when she returns to Beijing. I want to know how Princess Xilin is doing."
"In addition, she also has three thousand wind guards from the Imperial City Division. Now the Imperial City Division has the power to supervise the world. These wind guards should be handed over to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division."
"...I obey your orders!"
