Because he went to Pingshun City, it was already evening when Shen Hao returned to Fengri City.
Hu Tian got up and opened the door for Shen Hao. He said that many people had come to the house today, including people from the local government office and people from the Qianhu Office, all of whom came to look for Shen Hao. But no one came again at night.
Shen Hao secretly laughed in his heart. He knew what the purpose of finding the person was without guessing. Is it possible that he was trying to get someone? But no one came at night. It seemed that they couldn't find him so they turned to look for Wu Changhe. He should have been fished out.
A night of silence. When Shen Hao went to work the next day, he was called to Wu Changhe's public house as soon as he entered the gate of Qianhu House.
When he saw Wu Changhe, the Qianhu master's eyes were red with anger.
"Shen Hao! Who gave you the courage to be so bold! Bang!"
He slapped his hand on the table and left a fingerprint, making everything on the table jump. Coupled with Wu Changhe's overwhelming pressure due to his anger, Shen Hao, who was standing in the public house, felt a tingling sensation all over his body.
"I'm taking the liberty of you. I wonder why you are so angry?" Shen Hao naturally couldn't admit his fault. What's more, he had already thought of a way out for all this, and now Wu Changhe was just as he expected.
"What's the matter?! You actually ask me what's the matter? The day before yesterday, you innocently detained the government official Chen Xing and the third master of the Song Dynasty, Song Zhizhou, and sent them to the torture chamber for torture, and then imprisoned them in the dungeon of your Black Flag Camp.
If I hadn't intervened immediately, both of them would have died in the dungeon!
What do you want to do? "
When Wu Changhe first heard the news yesterday, he thought he had heard it wrong. He always thought that although Shen Hao was arrogant and domineering, he still knew how to advance and retreat. Although he failed to purge the Black Flag Camp before, Shen Hao still left a position as the general flag of the Black Flag Camp for him to arrange, which was regarded as taking care of him. face. Later, the two also cooperated tacitly in the concealment of the plague case, and each benefited from it.
But why were an adjutant of the Yamen and the third master of the Song family in the imperial city arrested together for no reason? Didn't we just agree on a deal?
Is it necessary to be so arrogant?
Wu Changhe couldn't understand and felt that Shen Hao was deliberately trying to make trouble for him. Because after Shen Hao captured someone, he stuffed them into the torture room and cleaned them up, and then he disappeared without a trace. As a result, the other party couldn't find Shen Hao and the Black Flag Camp refused to release him, so in the end he had to come forward. deal with. Outsiders would not know that he, a Qianhu official, could not control Shen Hao. They would only think that he played a role in it.
Shen Hao cupped his hands and said: "Because Chen Xing and Song Zhizhou touched sensitive matters of the Black Flag Camp, my subordinates only asked people for questioning according to internal rules. However, at that time, the two people had a tough attitude and refused to cooperate, so they had to be sent away. Go to the torture room for torture. I have already thought about their identities, so I specially ordered them. It is just a side dish, adults do not need to worry."
Wu Changhe was a little confused after hearing this.
"What did you say? Chen Xing and Song Zhizhou touched the sensitive affairs of your Black Flag Camp?!"
"Yes sir."
Taking a deep breath, Wu Changhe suppressed the thought of taking action and continued to ask: "Then please explain to me what sensitive matters they touched. I'm afraid it's not you who sank Baihu's money bag, right?"
Wu Changhe got the news last night and quickly released Chen Xing and Song Zhizhou from the dungeon. For this reason, he angrily reprimanded Wang Yiming, the adjutant of the Black Flag Battalion. Later, I also got a lot of information from the trembling Chen Xing, and learned that they were suddenly captured while discussing a business deal with Shen Hao.
As for Song Zhizhou, he was escorted back to the imperial city by the Song family that night. His face was extremely poor and he seemed to be mentally disturbed.
And now Wu Changhe, who was holding back his anger, actually heard Shen Hao say it was "involving sensitive matters"? There is such a thing as a rule, but what Chen Xing swore to talk about is business, why did it completely change the taste when it came to Shen Hao's mouth?
"Sir, Black Flag Battalion is currently promoting a top-secret plan that involves many external aspects. The Zhangjia Liquor Shop that Chen Xing and Song Zhizhou covet is part of this top-secret plan. This is all that my subordinates can say, and even if These also need to be kept secret by you, my lord.”
"Is this all there?! Shen Hao, do you think that because you are so respected by Lord Jiang, you can ignore me, Qianhu?"
"Why do you say this, sir? I am terrified." Shen Hao bowed slightly and bowed his hands again.
"Afraid? Are you still afraid? Tell me, what is the plan!" Wu Changhe lost his grace a little, mainly because he was angry. At the same time, he also sneered at Shen Hao's "top secret", thinking that he was a top secret that not even a thousand households knew about. How could Shen Hao know? Are you afraid that this is not a fabricated argument to excuse yourself?
"Sir, this is a top-secret plan of the Black Flag Camp. I dare not reveal even a word of it after being repeatedly warned by the governor. If you want to know, you can go to the governor's office and ask Mr. Jiang. Or sir, you can get it. With Mr. Jiang’s authorization warrant, my subordinates will reveal all the plans when the time comes.”
What Shen Hao was talking about was "black water", and there was no falsehood. It's just that "Black Water" is important and may even become the foundation of Black Flag Camp. Therefore, even if Wu Changhe really went to verify that Jiang Cheng would only receive a "true" sentence. If he further wanted to know the full picture of the plan, it would be absolutely impossible. impossible.
When Wu Changhe saw that Shen Hao's expression was serious and not fake, he was startled and thought to himself: Is there really a top secret?
Without knowing the inside story, Wu Changhe could not continue to reprimand Shen Hao and immediately dismissed him. But he was unwilling to do so, so he sent an urgent note to the Fu Shi Yamen in Jingxi Town.
The note was returned quickly after being handed in. Wu Changhe received the reply before leaving for work that afternoon.
Coincidentally, the reply from the Zhen Fu Shi Yamen was the same as what Shen Hao had been thinking in his heart before. It was really just one sentence, and it was shockingly straightforward: the situation was true.
Just four words, gone.
Wu Changhe was stunned for a long time when he saw these four words on the reply order, and finally crushed the copper bar into a ball in anger.
It’s so deceiving!
Wu Changhe took a deep breath and sat down again, seeming to vent some of his emotions. But he was making calculations in his mind.
It has been almost a year since he took office. Wu Changhe is well aware of all aspects of Fengri City. However, the Black Flag Camp, a very potential force, is not only not under his control but is becoming more and more alienated. Now it is even more... Basic message communication is no longer possible to notify him. It is like a completely independent institution in Qianhushu.
King Shou spent a lot of effort to exchange him to Fengri City to take charge of one side. But last time Shen Hao ignored Gu Shou Wang's personal recruitment and fought back, which made Shou Wang very dissatisfied. He was dissatisfied with Shen Hao's lack of appreciation, and also dissatisfied with Wu Changhe's "failure to control his subordinates".
We can't let this go any longer!
Wu Changhe saw the extreme perfunctoriness in the reply given to him by the Zhenfu Envoy Yamen. Coupled with Shen Hao's attitude, he had an inexplicable sense of crisis.
