Shen Hao had no clue at first. He had never been in a temple, and he only cared about the princes in the temple on paper. Even if Blackwater's tentacles spread quickly, they would not be able to reach the depths of the temple in just a few years.
So Shen Hao's idea was to go back and make preparations slowly according to Pang Ban's instructions, and then officially launch his plan after the so-called "big change" occurred.
But on the carriage back, Shen Hao still pondered this matter in his mind as usual. His idea was simple. If according to Pang Ban's statement, his plan to purge the Xuanqing Guards after the "big change" would no longer be hijacked by external forces. Then this "big change" must not have acted on Xuanqing Guard, but on the outside of Xuanqing Guard.
Is it a "big change" in the military? Shen Hao quickly rejected this idea in his heart. It was because of the army that they won a great victory in the national war, and it can be said that the credit shines through under the majesty. In addition, Zuo Yuliang did not stay in the south and did not cause any trouble. He obediently took only a few hundred personal guards and returned to the imperial city to listen to the training. This was considered to have eliminated the biggest hidden danger in the army. Then the emperor would have no reason to mobilize the army.
If it’s not the military or the Xuanqing Guard, then it’s the civil service line?
Thinking of the civil servants, Shen Hao immediately thought of a piece of top-secret information that Blackwater had received not long ago, which was about the emperor's secret letter to Bai Changqing asking Bai Changqing to list the crimes of Left Prime Minister Ye Lansheng.
The information was passed back by the Xu sisters, and its reliability is beyond doubt. This shows that the emperor has begun to prepare a murderous intention against the left prime minister.
Could it be that the "big change" in the temple that Pang Ban mentioned was referring to Ye Lansheng's incident?
Shen Hao thought about it secretly in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Because Ye Lansheng is the head of the civil service, no matter whether his current situation is good or bad, it is not an exaggeration to say that after decades of being a leftist minister, his personal connections are spread across all aspects of the Jing Dynasty. Even according to Pang Ban, the network of relationships behind and at the feet of a top boss like Ye Lansheng is absolutely intricate and indistinguishable.
To move others might be like "pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud." But to move Ye Lansheng was to pull out a big tree, and bring out not only a little bit of mud, but probably even large tracts of land.
In addition, it is not suitable to use the personnel of the Ministry of Justice or the Ministry of War to move Ye Lansheng. Shen Hao has analyzed this before. Once things begin, Xuan Qingwei is the only force most likely to be responsible for the Ye Lansheng case.
And who has the final say about Xuan Qingwei? Naturally, it’s Pang Ban. If Pang Ban delegates the investigation power of Ye Lansheng’s case to the Black Flag Battalion, then...
Shen Hao couldn't hide the smile on his face when he thought of this, he smiled very happily.
Indeed, if Shen Hao had the power to investigate Ye Lansheng's case, he really didn't think anyone would dare to step out and point fingers at him or threaten him.
Even Shen Hao could predict that once he started to attack Ye Lansheng, the emperor would definitely come up with a deeper killer move to suppress all objections.
Not to mention anything else, just Fenghong Villa and 100,000 forbidden troops can walk sideways in the Jingjiu Dynasty. As long as Zuo Yuliang of the Ministry of War does not cause trouble or add obstruction, Shen Hao can't think of any other force that can hinder the emperor.
At the same time, he arrived at the Black Flag Camp Commandery Office in Fengri City. As soon as he arrived at the door, Shen Hao was stopped by someone. The guards looked around and noticed an old man standing beside the carriage in the distance, dressed like a butler.
"Master Shen, Wang Qin, steward of the Yu Mansion, I showed you the way last time you had a drink at the manor."
The other party did not dare to come over rashly, but stood there and introduced himself loudly, hoping that Shen Hao would remember it.
Not to mention, this reminder made Shen Hao remember that the person in front of him was the housekeeper of the Yu family in Qizhou City.
"Well, I remember you, what's the matter?" Shen Hao waved, and Wang Qin came trotting over from a distance. After bowing his body and saluting, he said: "Sir, I brought you something at the request of Miss Qiaoer. I said I was worried that you would be tired from your official duties, so I made a nourishing soup. I hope you can try it."
What? ! Nourishing soup? Yu Qiaorang sent it?
To be honest, Shen Hao was stunned when he heard these words from the other party. Looking at the clay pot handed over by the other party, he subconsciously took it. Then he saw that the Yu family's housekeeper seemed to be greatly relieved. He bowed again and turned around and left quickly. Just like a normal meal delivery, just leave after the delivery.
However, the warmth emanating from the clay pot in his hand suddenly awakened Shen Hao. He seemed to have subconsciously caught not only a pot of nourishing soup, but also a portion of pressure sent by others.
Most of the women in the old Jing Dynasty were gentle and gentle, especially the daughters of wealthy families, who paid great attention to the four words "virtuous and virtuous". They also emphasized that before getting married, they should treat each other with respect and be treated as guests, and they should always be accompanied by elders when meeting. Therefore, it is simply impossible to fall in love or even live together before getting married like in the other world.
Once people cannot communicate face-to-face, a lot of strange ideological behaviors and rules will appear. For example, a token. It is even called a "love conveyer" between lovers.
Here, we pay attention to "passing things" only if we are "sentimental", and use things to carry the love of lovesickness that we cannot see often.
Once this kind of "tease" is sent and the other party accepts it, it can basically be regarded as "the man is affectionate and the concubine is interested", and the day of getting married is not far away.
Does a jar of nourishing soup count as a "love conveyer"? Just look at the guards who took the initiative to make way for the butler and let go of their hands holding the handle of the knife. There is no need to investigate the underlying reasons for the matter. No one would think that Shen Hao took the can of nourishing soup out of "confusion and negligence". They would only envy Master Shen for having a lover who cares about him.
...This... somewhat made Shen Hao stunned.
what to do? Go back? Isn't this a slap in the Yu family's face? It can even be considered a humiliation for the Yu family, and it will make enemies and enemies.
Then take it back and drink it? Shen Hao shook his head. Fortunately, Yu Qiao's appearance and figure were within his aesthetics. It was not that difficult to accept, but it was just so passive that he couldn't adapt to it.
No matter what... Shen Hao returned to the public house with the soup. In fact, it was lunch time, so he asked the guard to bring him some rice and side dishes. He ate in the public room and drank the can of soup.
"The nourishing soup... still tastes good, but the medicinal taste is a bit strong." Shen Hao drank the soup and took out the contents of the soup with the rice and ate it. In the end, nothing was left.
After eating until he was about to get off work in the afternoon, Shen Hao felt inexplicably hot in his lower abdomen, and wisps of spiritual energy began to spread into his limbs.
This nourishing soup seems extraordinary!
