in charge

It was Yuan Cheng who first suspected Chen Er.After he knew the relationship between Chen Er and Jin Si, he felt that Chen Er's motives for helping a righteous daughter so wholeheartedly were impure, and thus found out Chen Er's identity.

Chen Er's father was the little boss of a certain boat gang in Dazhou, and his mother was a Daqiu girl.Chen Er was in frequent contact with his grandfather's family, and lived in Daqiu for five years. When he returned to Dazhou, his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds. He easily joined the Leopard Gang and became the head of the Huabao Hall.

Yuan Cheng's investigation has reached this point, and it is basically confirmed that Chen Er was trained as a secret agent during the five years in Daqiu.He used to be the prime minister of South Germany, and he sent thousands of detailed works to various countries, so he is naturally familiar with the secrets.

Chen Er died a bit unjustly.His secret identity was not disclosed at first, but Xu Jiu invited Yuan Cheng to come forward because of his sudden death, which made the line clear.

The boat stopped on the other side, Eunuch Liu took Mo Zihua clothes and boarded first, and Emperor La Yuancheng stayed behind for a while.

The emperor said: "I have already rewarded you, but I still reward you heavily. Because of this, I made people complain openly and secretly, but since I promised you, I can't control other things."

Yuan Cheng lowered his head and bowed lightly, "Your Majesty speaks a lot, and I can't thank you enough."

"It's also your prediction. Daqiu really made trouble tonight. He wanted to use it as a smokescreen, but he actually entered the palace to obtain a picture. But I don't know, you used it instead. You are right, Mozi girl does have an emergency plan Yes. I thought you were exaggerating, and there was really no choice but to call her out. I didn’t expect that she was capable of writing and martial arts, so smart.” The emperor laughed and said, “In the future, I will send her more often. Support the scene."

Yuan Cheng smiled, but didn't say too much, just said, "Your Majesty, from this point of view, Yuling cannot be allowed to be destroyed by Daqiu. Yuling has many rivers and swamps, which are natural barriers against Daqiu. If it becomes the land of Daqiu , the southeast waters of Dazhou are still under the claws of Daqiu wolf and are in danger."

The emperor pondered, "How could I not know? It's just that Prince Yuling is in the hands of Daqiu. Daqiu ruled in his name, and Dazhou interfered, which turned out to be ambitious."

"Although the prince of Yuling is begging, the second prince of Yuling is in Dazhou. I wonder if the emperor has heard about this?" Yuan Cheng's dark eyes sparkled.

"The rumors in the market are not to be believed." After the emperor said this sentence, he suddenly looked at Yuan Cheng, "Could it be that Yuanqing has real evidence?"

Yuan Cheng knelt down on the spot, "Please forgive me for not making the announcement in time. The second prince of Yuling, Chu Yu, is the younger brother of the minister. Because of being framed by the empress and prince, his mother died tragically, and he has been humiliated for many years in Daqiu as a hostage. After returning to the country, he was extremely disappointed with his father, king and elder brother, and left in anger. Now he is a merchant and has been a free man for a few years. When I swore to him, I only knew that he was a businessman, and I didn't know his previous identity at all."

"Oh? If that's the case, he is also a poor man. He is obviously a prince, but he is forced to become a philistine merchant." The emperor shook his head with regret, "Please, Yuan Qing, it is destiny to be married. What's more, you Is sworn brotherhood with Chu Yu, so what is the crime? I think of Jiang Tao’s memorial, he said that the Yuling of the Great Zhou Dynasty is in the same line, which is absolutely correct.”

Yuan Cheng stood up, "Chu Yu originally intended for the throne, but Yuling was invaded, his father died and his brother was captured, and the country was devastated. General Yuling asked him to go back and take charge of the overall situation, but he also refused. Unexpectedly, the old general led the soldiers Going to assassinate Daqiu's envoys, all generously sacrificed. The old general still asked him to return to the country before he died, and those soldiers let Daqiu be skinned and cut off. The tragedy was unspeakable. Chu Yu was so sad and angry that he told his ministers that he wanted to send the old general's ashes Go back to Yuling, let the dead rest in peace."

"You want to be brave, but you are also cruel. I have already said many things about massacring cities and cannibalizing people, which is outrageous." The emperor's face was stern.

"Your Majesty, I thought that Daqiu could take Prince Yuling by his side and swallow his land, and that Da Zhou could also help Prince Yuling to regain justice. And I even thought that this move by Da Zhou would win the hearts of Yuling, so we made a previous alliance. Let's meet in peace for a hundred years." Yuan Cheng finished.

The emperor frowned deeply, remained silent for a long time, and finally said, "I know what Ai Qing said, but it's a big matter, let me think about it again."

Yuan Cheng bowed his head and obeyed.

The two went ashore.

The emperor ordered Mo Zi to visit the ship's captain in a few days, then took Liu Ning, got into an unremarkable carriage, and disappeared into the night.

Hua Yi drove the car himself.At this time, no one was talking about the issue of whether a man and a woman should be married or not. Of course, Mo Zi would not be so stupid as to find a way out of such a big palace, and got into the car ahead of Yuan Cheng without saying a word.

"Explain." As soon as Yuan Cheng sat opposite her, Mo Zi said, "I don't mind if you use me, but I would really mind if you don't tell me."

"Today's banquet, I asked the emperor to invite you." Yuan Cheng began to explain.

"Because I want to give me a chance to show off, let the emperor reward me with an identity that others can't easily handle." Mo Zi covered her mouth and smiled, "Do you have an eye on your forehead? It's better than fortune-telling."

"That's just one of the reasons. I forgot to congratulate you, the captain of the ship inspector. From the fifth rank, even though you are named, you are also included in the Ministry of Officials. Official files, you can enjoy the salary from the fifth rank. And the emperor allows you to walk and speak directly, and the name is also valid. He seems to have expectations of you, otherwise he wouldn't have let you report to the ship's captain as soon as possible." Yuan Cheng was well informed, the emperor didn't say anything about rewards, and he knew about the two edicts before he left the house.

"Investigate the reason why the ship sank. But it's been a long time, and all the evidence has been annihilated." Mo Zi thought it was impossible, but luckily the emperor only asked her to try.

Yuan Cheng did not comment on this, and continued to explain, "Another reason, Wu Yan."

Mo Zi has never told him about those people and things before, but when he heard him mentioning Wuyan, his expression changed slightly, "You—" What are you asking?

"Daqiu has Nande's detailed work, I once said." Yuan Cheng saw Mo Zi nodded, and said, "These people are working for me now. The first day Wu Yan set off from Daqiu Capital in disguise, the news spread gone."

"So, you also know about Wu Yan and I." This person was too old an official before, so I'm afraid he can't hide it from him.

"I never inquired about the past, but I have heard about Wu Yan mobilizing troops to encircle the capital and forcing all the ministries to agree to marry Song's patriarch's daughter as the queen of the country." The carriage shook, and the sleeves slipped away, His hands and fingers were tightly crossed, but his expression was very calm, as if he was relaxed, "Mo Zi, the emperor just said one less reason why Wu Yan came to Shangdu. He also came to see you."

Mo Zi restrained her smile, "Even so, would I go with him? I never wanted to be a queen. He lied to me for many years, and even his feelings for me at the beginning were fake. Some things, It’s not compensation, you can get it back. If it’s gone, it’s gone, especially trust.”

"Da Qiuruo is playing tricks tonight, and if the emperor can use you, I hope Wu Yan will be distracted because of you." Yuan Cheng didn't hide all his plans, "His shadow guard stole the picture back He should have been there when we got to the post, but he wasn't. It's all your fault."

"So what if he's not here?" Mo Zi didn't understand.

"If he's not here, we have a chance to steal the defense plan of the water village." That's why he asked his people to tell her to delay the time as much as possible.

"But, why didn't you use a fake picture from the beginning?" Mo Zi wondered.

"Because there is a big demand for internal response. I don't know if it is himself or other accomplices. There is a face-to-face person waiting in the post house. After Wu Yan's shadow guard showed him the picture, he confirmed that it is the real copy. If Wu Yan It’s hard to do anything if you’re there.” Yuan Cheng looked at Mo Zi, “This plan was changed with you in the center. When I heard that Daqiu proposed to shoot the bell, and there was a face-to-face person in the posthouse, I changed the original plan. The arrangement was cancelled. Originally, it was intended to give a fake picture. If people in front of the door exposed it, with Wu Yan's cleverness, he would definitely think that Da Zhou knew his intentions, and might send troops to attack in advance. And Da Zhou At this point, it takes time to prepare.”

"Yuan Cheng, are you really loyal to Da Zhou?" It can be said that he spared no effort in doing things.

"It's about loyalty. Comparing the two, it's not the worst one to choose. He wants to be strong and strong, and he also has the ambition and strength to annex the world. It's just that the human nature is miserable and the law is convincing. Nande is a rotten tree full of holes. Can't take care of himself. Only Da Zhou can compete with Da Qiu. To unify or divide the world, it depends on Da Zhou's final position. If you want to help your second brother gold and silver, Da Zhou's secret support is essential, otherwise the country will be restored It's just empty talk." Yuan Cheng didn't have the consciousness of being a loyal minister at all.

"Has he finally made up his mind?" Jin Yin still wanted to shoulder that burden.

"He wants to go to Yuling at least to see it with his own eyes. If the people under Daqiu's rule are living a good life, he will let it go and continue to be his cheapskate. If not." The carriage jolted and he had to stop.

"If not, he will be the emperor of Yuling himself?" Although Mo Zi knew that this was a helpless thing, he still felt melancholy, "It's a pity, he likes to be carefree."

"There is no need to be negative, who knows what the future will hold? Now, just take a step and see. His carefree temperament, even if he becomes the emperor, may not be able to change much." Acquired influence is greater than innate Blood inheritance.

"People are in the dragon chair, they can't help themselves." Mo Zi was not optimistic.

"When we meet later, ask yourself if he will turn into an annoying old man." Yuan Cheng closed the curtain and blew in a lot of snow.

"Where are we going?" The sound of firecrackers didn't stop for a moment.

"Go and have a real New Year's Eve dinner. The meal just now is called entertainment.

Can't count. He handed her a book, "There is still a little distance, let's pass the time first." "

Mo Zi looked outside, seeing the unfamiliar yamen scene, "I thought I was going to Jinyin's house."

Yuan Cheng said no, "Go to your house."

Mo Zi immediately thought, "Redwood?"

"It's better for you to go there less recently." Yuan Cheng began to read the book by himself.

"Why?" Mo Zi asked.

"Wu Yan sent someone there to catch you." Yuan Cheng raised his eyes with a gentle smile, "However, I helped you find him a little trouble."

Seeing him gentle, Mo Zi suddenly became suspicious. , "What trouble?"

"I accidentally burned half the place where he lived." Back in the books.

One dared to enter the palace to steal things, and the other dared to set fire to people's residences, it was obvious, it was amazing. ! .
